What does "service park assist system" mean on my 2008 jeep?

I have a 2008 Jeep Grand Cherekee and a few times my VES has popped up with "SERVICE PARK ASSIST SYSTEM". What does this mean? It only seems to happen when we have had snow or ice.

    that sounds like exactly what might be the problem- Thank you. I think that they shoud have called it "Back up Assist" since it is only assisting you when you "back up", not when you park.

The park assist system detects objects 59 inches or less in back of your vehicle, to warn u so u don't strike the object. I'm guessing that since the service park assist system comes on in the ice and snow, the monitor is detecting something (ice and snow covering the sensor). If u clean off the snow and ice, the message should shut off.

2008 Commander with Parking Assist Sys defect. Jeep dealer diagnois - the LED display @ rear ceiling. Part is only $94 + tax. Labor adds $200. You may want to try replacing the part yourself. Save $$$ if that fixes it.

Mine came on going down the freeway and shut its self off and will not turn on now. i dont know what to do with it.

  • brongel21 Oct 09, 2010

    My 06 Grand Cherokee has the same problem. I can't turn it on. It just says Service Park Assist System. No other problems have stemmed from this though, unlike what i've read about the Commander.

How do you service park assist system on a grand Cherokee?

I got a 2007 jeep grand cherokee diesel and at times the service park assist will flash and the engine light will come on. a box forms around the gears on the display and it feels like it trannys slipping and its rough out of 1st gear. if you throw it in neutral then back to drive everything is fine again. After hours of research i found that you have to get your computer flashed. It if commom for many people and the dealership wont know what your talking about. so you have to lets them know!!!! else they have no clue

My park assist warning come on while driving for no reason

You can take it to your Jeep dealer and have the service department try to flash the computer. This may fix it. If not you will need to purchase a shift control module. They are about $ 590.00. This is a very common problem on the Jeep Cherokees and Grand Cherokees. Hopefully you are under warranty still. If you ignore this problem this is what will eventually happen: You will be driving down the road and your vehicle will not want to go over 15 mph and it will shift erratically. Do not wait to correct this problem or you will regret it. Yes it is a very expensive part, but a computer in itself that the vehicle needs to function correctly.
