my ESC light comes on in my Jeep Cherokee

Asked by GuruD9VZ1F Aug 16, 2023 at 10:03 AM about the 2014 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk 4WD

Question type: Maintenance & Repair

My ESC light keeps coming on and keeps flashing intermittently in my Jeep
Cherokee. This prevents me from going forward sometimes. I am also getting
check engine light for Service 4WD. We also get a 4WD overheating light flash
on the dashboard. A few times it shows it automatically go into 4WD low and
cant go over 50MPH? They sometimes come on at the same time.

An intelligent person would take all those bells-n-whistles as a sign to service the 4WD system. When the CEL lights, the computer shuts down traction, stability, and cruise systems. When you have the car cared for properly, service should return to normal.
