 Description of the problemWe purchased our 2015 jeep cherokee new and within a few months of driving the jeep we started to notice what i would call horrible lag issues. The car would drive jerky and when the car was at a stop and you applied the gas to go, it would seem like it wasn't getting the gas and will have a hard time accelerating. We took the car in and they detected the problem and said they did a computer update. Shortly after, the jeep started a very scary self acceleration where the car would accelerate on its own and take off without applying gas or having foot on gas pedal. The jeep would lunge so violently and it was hard to make it stop and tried to lunge thru the braking. I have taken the car back it several times as both of these issues happen and makes it very dangerous to drive. My daughter was almost in a horrible collision with a large truck and rear ended because the car was lagging so bad making a right hand turn from a red light. Thankfully the truck was able to swerve around us and we didn't get hit. We initiated the lemon law on this jeep as it is too dangerous to drive. The jeep has been in for servicing many times and the problem has still not been resolved. I have googled this online and found other jeep owners with exact frightening concerns. Very upsetting and dangerous. I have the documentation for all the times the car has been to service for this and they understand the problem and said they have other jeeps with same concerns.
