It is not normal and my 2013 Grand Cherokee Overland with the HEMI just started doing this at 47K miles. It is driving me crazy! The noise is from under the chassis behind the engine. It does the rapid clicking for a few seconds then stops. It does it in park at startup, in drive, neutral and reverse but only for maybe 5-10 seconds.

It is the transmission solenoid cycling. I don't know why but will have it checked.
It is the transmission solenoid that is cycling. I got underneath the vehicle and had my wife move the shifter from Drive to Reverse until I isolated it.
Found problem. It is the transmission solenoid cycling.
Dealership rebuilt the transmission under warranty. They obviously have a problem they do not want to admit to.
There should be a recall but you know how that goes. Does your Jeep continue to click while driving it? Mine did. Dealership tried telling me the clicking was normal until I asked "even when driving it?" Then they admitted something was wrong. When they checked it they told me there should have been warning lights coming on but there wasn't. I was told when the clicking continues while driving, the transmission is incapable of going into 4X4. Good luck!
The dealership had to rebuild the tranny. They said there should have been a warning light activation but there was none. No longer own the vehicle, I purchased a 2020 G.C. Overland. This is our 3rd one.
