There are 3 owner-reported driver assist & adas complaints for the 2015 Jeep Cherokeein NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
A few times when I have used cruise control my car suddenly accelerates and takes me slamming on my break for a few seconds to disengage to slow down, almost causing me to crash into someone. I have not taken my car to a shop to have it looked at. There were no warning lights or messages when it happened
Electric Emergency brake system will not disengage. Started my vehicle and it stated check parking brake and the red light was also on. I thought someone hit the brake button so I hit it and the light went off. I was able to drive my jeep a few feet to unlock the gate to our property. I put the jeep in park got out to open the gate and when I got back in the orange light came back on to check the park brake. I tried clicking it off and it would not go off. I then could not move my jeep forward or backwards. Because of this we had to have the jeep towed to local dealership to review. It is there as we speak. They told us looks to be the brake module. I will have documentation once the repair is complete.
2015 JEEP CHEROKEE. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE COLLISION BRAKING SYSTEM PROBLEMS. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED TWO WEEKS AGO, THE LANE SENSOR AND COLLISION AVOIDANCE SYSTEM TURNED OFF AS INDICATED BY THE RED LIGHT BEING ON THE OPTIONS BUTTON. A MESSAGE CAME ON THAT SAID ACC FCW WAS INACTIVE AND TO CLEAN THE FRONT RADAR SENSOR. HE WIPED AND CLEANED THE SENSOR. HOWEVER, THAT DID NOT STOP THE MESSAGE FROM CONSTANTLY COMING ON. THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE CONSUMER STATED EVEN THOUGH THE COLLISION BRAKING SYSTEM WAS TURNED OFF, IT WAS ACTING AS THOUGH SOMETHING WAS BEHIND HIM AND THEREFORE THE BRAKES ENGAGED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STOP. *JB
