Got a Check engine light on, took it to near by auto parts store they hooked it up to a code reader and got a code of P105D, after doing some research it seems to be a very common issue with 2017 Jeep Grand Cherokees, makes it very uncertain if vehicle is going to still be able to drive seems like the car wants to stall out, car is stuttering, shaking, and loosing power, MPG, Battery power, and oil pressure is going crazy. Vehicle has not been inspected by a Manufacturer ect. Prior to the check engine light the vehicle would stutter, shake and seem to want to stall.

There are a ton of posts on Reddit showing a bunch of 3.6l jeep owners all having the same issue with the VVT/VVL Solenoid. It seems to be all the same, the truck starts running very rough and like complete [XXX], CEL starts blinking, and then they check the codes coming up and they all seem to be getting codes p0456, p105d & p0302. The misfire is in cylinder 2 and the VVT Solenoid needs to be replaced at not even 70k miles. The bad solenoid caused the jeep to be undriveable. There are a ton of jeep owners who are all having this same EXACT issue with their jeep and yet this isn’t a recall?? Jeep obviously made a faulty truck. Please explain HOW THERE ISN’T A RECALL TO FIX THE VVT/VVL…
P105D: questions drivers ask
What does code P105D mean?
P105D is a manufacturer-specific powertrain code (engine, transmission, fuel and emissions), so its exact definition depends on the carmaker and is not in the generic OBD-II list. 3 owners reported it to NHTSA, most often for the Jeep Grand Cherokee (2), Chrysler Pacifica (1); their reports describe what happened.

In NHTSA owner complaints, P105D is mentioned most for the Jeep Grand Cherokee (2), Chrysler Pacifica (1), across 2 models and model years 2017 to 2018. Popular models collect more reports because more of them are on the road.
Is there a recall for code P105D?
No NHTSA recall text names P105D directly. 3 recalls on the cars that report this code concern the same component owners name most (Engine); they may or may not relate to the code. Check your VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls.
What should I do if my car shows P105D?
Write down when the code appeared and what the car did (warning lights, loss of power, noises, speed, weather). Check your VIN for open recalls at nhtsa.gov/recalls, ask a dealer or independent workshop to read the stored freeze-frame data before anyone clears the code, and keep the repair order. If the car loses power in traffic, stop driving it. CarHooq does not diagnose: these are owner reports and official recall notices, not repair advice.
