Ok This happened to me a few times so far.

I went to unlock my car -(the windows were cracked open)- then the radio turned on. It was like I put the key in the ignition and turned it to accessory.

2nd time, I was leaning in the jeep with the door open and the key was in my pocket, and I must have hit the button and again accessory stuff came on.

3rd time- it was raining- I left the windshield wipers on- I pressed unlock and wipers were moving and radio turned on.

First and 3rd incidents stopped after I opened the door.

2nd incedent stopped after about 10 seconds

I don't have remote start.

Has this happen to anyone else?

 

Every time I open one of the front doors, my cd player motor runs as if it's trying to load a cd.

 

Is that what that noise is??? I thought it was the hamster warming up the wheel.

 

Same thing happend to me yesterday. Hit the unlock then all of a sudden I noticed my stereo was on.

To be perfectly honest with everyone, Jeep really screwed the pooch on this one. There has been WAY too many problems with this new model. I have owned several new model year cars and this is by far the worst. My ETC problem is STILL not fixed after being int he shop twice already. They have one more chance before I lemon law this turd.

 

That was going to be my reply. I could not figure out what that noise was.

 

ahhhh... the beauty of having manual locks and windows... i love my life...

reasoning:
A) i am single, no kids, no pets, limber, and average height = no need to have power locks b/c i only need to open my door and then i can reach the locks on the rest with zero discomfort

B) if it is warm enough to roll down the windows, its warm enough to take off the door = well, nuff said

Are there any other issues with the power "convenience" group?? aside from conflicting with radio, wipers, etc??

ARE THERE ANY KEYLESS ENTRY FOR THE TRUNK ONLY?

 

I have a 4 door. I haven't heard the noise since the first day I had the car. I will mention it to the service guy when I get my first oil change.

 

my unlimited x does this also. i don't have any of the electronic extras. my vehicle is as stripped as they come. only option is auto tranny. guess i can add this to the long list of problems when next i take it back to the dealer.

 

I thought that noise might be the fule pump, not the CD player - but I'll have to pay more attention to it now.

 

My first thought also, but its definately coming from the CD player. Funny though, it only does it occassionally. Ghost in the machine.
