Thanks to all for the input above:
 
All the panel warning lights were intermittently lighting up for a few seconds, then going back off. Thanks to what I've read here, it was easily fixed by cleaning the battery posts and cable terminals and tightening them down well. (2005 Grand Cherokee 3.7L)

2005 grand cherokee cuts off during turns by gulfgirl

In the last few weeks I have had several incidents of my jeep just turning off when I am in the middle of a turn. I have to put it in neutral, then turn the ignition and it just starts right back up. It has only done this while I am in the act of turning. Luckily it has only occurred when I have been slowing down - like turning into the garage or pulling into a drive thru lane. This issue started right after I had the dealership change out the battery (since I couldn't find the battery at any of the local part stores). Could it be possible that something happened during the battery installation that would cause this or is it just coincidence?

I am having similar problem on my Jeep Grand Cherokee 2000yr. When you open or lock the car the hazardlights dont flash, once inside the lights dont turn off, the windows dont work, the memory seats dont work because it says the belt is on but its not, the belt light stays on.
 
if you could help me please let me know
 
thanks

Brand new 2008 Grand Cherokee Laredo- already with electrical problem!!! by erider

After only purchasing Toyota cars for many years, and on an "impulse buy" deciding on a Jeep since they gave me such a great deal, I am already regretting the choice. I love the Jeep- the way it drives and handles, and it fits me like a glove. However, I am wondering if this is a quality vehicle and that if I am already having a problem now, what's it gonna be like in five years??
Here's the problem: the rear liftgate door usually doesn't respond to the lock/unlock key. I went four days straight with being unable to get the liftgate to lock, even though all the other doors work fine. I would stand by the liftgate pressing the "lock" mode on the remote key fifty times- no response. When the liftgate would lock on rare occasion, then it would go days without my being able to UNLOCK it!! Any thief could have opened that rear door, crawled in and taken anything he wanted!! I took it back to the dealer only a WEEK after I bought it and had the service department look at it. they replaced the actuator and the latch, thinking that would fix it, but no.... I now have another appointment with the Service department in a few days. My hunch is that either this is a simple problem , i.e. a wire that needs adjusting, or it's a complex electrical problem that might never be fixed. if it's the latter, I'm wondering what my protections/rights are as a consumer...anyone have advice on this?? I have only had the car for a month! No brand new car should have this problem.

I found spliced and broken wires where the drivers door hinges. I fought electrical problems on my 02 for a while until i found and fixed this problem. Also, when my battery gets to be a couple of years old, it starts doing strange things. The first place id look is in the rubber boot from the drivers door to the door jamb and check the integrity of the wires there. Good luck!
