Most common problems:

Brake fluid leak

Hydraulic brake systems rely on brake fluid to transmit force. A leak can lead to reduced braking efficiency or complete brake failure.

Brake pad wear

Over time, brake pads wear down and need to be replaced to maintain effective braking.

Brake rotor damage

Brake rotors can become warped or damaged, leading to vibrations or reduced braking performance.

Engine misfire

V8 engines, especially those with HEMI configurations, can experience misfires due to issues with the ignition system, fuel injectors, or spark plugs.

Oil leaks

V8 engines are prone to oil leaks, which can occur around valve covers, oil pans, or other seals and gaskets.

Cooling system issues

V-shaped engines can have cooling system problems, such as radiator leaks or thermostat failures, leading to overheating.

Multiple displacement system (mds) malfunctions

The HEMI Multiple Displacement System can sometimes fail to properly deactivate and reactivate cylinders, causing rough running or reduced fuel efficiency.

Timing chain/belt problems

V8 engines can experience issues with the timing chain or belt, leading to engine performance problems or even catastrophic failure.

Fuel consumption

V8 engines, particularly in older models like the 2005 Grand Cherokee, are known for high fuel consumption, which can be exacerbated by other engine issues.

Exhaust manifold leaks

V-shaped engines can develop leaks in the exhaust manifold, causing noise, reduced performance, and potential emissions problems.
