2014 Jeep Wrangler SUV 4WD

When driving at Interstate Speeds (65-70), and any roadway imperfections (uneven pavement, pot holes, broken pavement) are hit, the vehicle will start to violently shake, will feel like you'll lose control and sometimes the vehicle fishtails. I did Google Searches on this to see if other Jeep Owners were having similar problems, and found many instances for this model year. They referred to this as the "death wobble". I took mine into the dealership and they did over $1000 worth of work to it, and it has helped it some. Not sure that it is completely fixed.

Oil Filter assembly (FCA Pentastar 3.6L) started leaking oil and poured out over the back of the engine and got on the rear tires causing a loss of control of the vehicle. No warnings were indicated and the event occurred where my wife and others could have been hurt or killed.

This is another complaint about the oil filter and oil cooler assembly problem that's known on the 2014 Wranglers. It's made of plastic (that cracks) with plastic gaskets (that shrink/crack over time). It's a known problem, has been reported by many, especially for vehicles in cold weather areas. Due to the location of the oil cooler assembly, it can't be easily replaced without spending over a thousand dollars and then the dealers don't stand behind or warranty the new part/their install because they know the replacement is just plastic and going to crack again. Oil leaks all over other engine components (transmission, transfer case, etc.), which could cause the vehicle to catch on fire; an accident due to the leaked on components being deteriorated and not working properly from being oil soaked; or cause the engine oil to overheat since the cooling assembly isn't working correctly. Repair requires complete disassembly of the upper engine and the OEM replacement is just another faulty plastic parts. Repairs are extremely costly IF you can even find parts. OEM had to know about this issue---plastic parts are never good and hopefully no one will get hurt because you could be driving a long time before you even know you have a problem.

The fuel neck into the fuel tank failed causing fuel to leak out of the vehicle. Upon inspection by 2 independent shops, it was determined that there was no physical damage or reason for the failure. The repair to the issue is for the entire fuel tank to be replaced at a cost of approximately $2,000. The vehicle has only 65,000 miles on it and used on highway driving conditions. The concern is that a manufacturing or design defect is the cause and because of the hazard created by the leak, is a serious issue and should be addressed by Jeep. Jeep has acknowledged that this issue should not occur and has offered some minimal assistance on repair costs, however my concern is with having to replace an entire fuel tank at 65,000 miles on a Jeep product and the safety concerns with the potential for this to occur without a root cause (other than product failure or defect). This should not be considered a 'wear and tear' part and have a much longer life than 65,000 miles. In addition, due to the design of the part, requires the entire fuel tank to be replaced at an excessive cost. The consumer expectation from Jeep is for a much more rugged, dependable and safe product which is what Jeep promises in their marketing and promise to consumers.

Clock Spring failed, Left multi function switch failed, air bag recall

The oil filter and oil cooler assembly is plastic with plastic gaskets. It will often crack, or the gaskets will shrink/crack over time, particularly in cold weather conditions. This causes oil to leak down onto other components, specifically the transmission, transfer case, etc. in the case of an accident this oil leak and oil soaked components can represent a fire hazard. Also can become an engine oil overheating issue as the oil cooling is not working properly. Repair requires complete disassembly of the air intake system and manufacturer only supplies the same faulty plastic parts. Repair is extremely costly and it is a known defect that has caused many parts shortages.

Issue with lifters ticking at 49k miles

2014 JEEP WRANGLER. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO NUMEROUS SAFETY ISSUES WITH VEHICLE. THE CONSUMER STATED THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD MOVE FROM SIDE TO SIDE. WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE ALL THE WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER STATED THE WIRES WERE TOO SHORT. ALL 24 ROCKERS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED TWICE. BOTH FRONT U JOINTS WERE REPLACED. THE ENGINE AND FUEL INJECTOR HARNESSES WERE REPLACED. THE ORIGNAL WIRES CRACKED AND SHORTED OUT. BOTH THE DRAG LINKS ENDS WERE REPLACED. THE FRONT DRIVE SHAFT FAILED. THE FRONT AXLE ASSEMBLY BROKE FROM THE TRAC BAR.

The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler equipped with four Goodyear Tires. Tire line: Wrangler Fortitude HT, Tire Size: 27565R18.The contact stated that while driving the rear driver tire blew out without warning. The road patrol replaced the damaged tire. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. There were no reported injuries. The manufacturer was notified where informed to send in tire however, no further assistance was provided.. The tire mileage was unknown. The vehicle failure mileage was 100,062.

I was driving the vehicle at 30 miles per hour and the engine accelerated to 60 miles per hour on it's own. before I could get it to stop. This occurred on 4 different occasions of the vehicle accelerating on it's own. The vehicle was only able to get under control by stepping on the brake hard placed the vehicle in neutral and shut off the Key. Some one could of been killed. No Dick Chrysler dodge stated they would have to drive it to see if there was an issue and charge an outrageous amount of money to determine if there was an issue. I know there is an issue. No one has inspected it as there was no accident There were no warning signs that came on. The first occurrence of the issue was on 8-

64000 miles oil filler housing cracked out of nowhere and started leaking oil all over the exhaust. smoke was coming off the exhaust into the jeep I was afraid the jeep would catch fire so i had to tow it home. this part made out of plastic is breaking on many jeeps because it is defective in design. it cannot do its job.oil leaking all over the road and onto hot exhaust is a dangerous result of this poorly designed part

Fuse box on right hand side of engine compartment caught fire and was smoldering. Jeep at time was turned off and in a parked position when this occurred. Tail lights were flashing and windshield wiper were going without being turned on. Remote would not unlock Jeep and entire cabin was filled with smoke. If I had been driving vehicle, I would have been unable to stop. Auto Gear Shifter locked up and I would have been unable to see how to drive due to amount of smoke entering cabin and all power components failing.

Dealer reported crack in oil cooling housing. A burning oil and coolant smell starting in 2017, while under manufacturer warranty. I was concern that jeep would start a fire and began parking outside. I replace the oil cooler because I noticed a ticking sound. When I went to the dealer they informed the the engine is a total loss and needs to be replaced. Cylinders 1 and 6 failed. $8000 to replace the engine with a refurbished unit which addresses each of Chrysler’s failed 3.6 liter motor. If this manufactures oil cooler and other engine issues, do not need to be addressed, I don’t know what ever would need to be addressed.

The other day I was changing the fluids in my transfer case and I noticed that the cv bolts were broken and coming out my Jeep is not lifted nor is there larger tires on it. If these all snapped the possibility the drive shift my fall out. If you contact me immediately I won't proceed with fixing the drive shaft if not I'm replacing it tomorrow.

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact received notification of NHTSA Campaign Number: 19V018000 (Air Bags) however, the part to do the recall repair was not yet available. The contact stated that the manufacturer had exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect

My Jeep Wrangler was having significant engine issues with shaking, random noises and vibrations, and it turns out the Engine Oil Cooler had a crack in it and leaked oil all over the intake manifold/under carriage of the vehicle. Upon speaking with over 15 dealerships in Southern California, they noted that there were over 40,000 of this replacement part on back-order as of March 2020. I had to wait two months to get the part delivered, which meant I went two months without a vehicle, and then had to pay over $800+ on a part + labor on an item that should absolutely be recalled. There are thousands of posts on Wrangler Forum and other Jeep pages that share the exact same issue. Jeep has ignored this issue since 2014, and it's only occurring in more vehicles now. This part breaking can cause engine seizure or failure and should not be a cost to the customer as there is CLEARLY a nation-wide problem that Chrysler is ignoring.

NEED TO REPLACE OIL SENSORS, FILTER HOUSING & INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKET SET-WARPED. OIL LEAKING EVERYWHERE DUE TO CRACKED HOUSING. THERE HAVE BEEN COMPLAINTS SINCE 2014 IN ALL MAKES OF JEEP/CHRYSLER CARS AND THEY REFUSE TO RECALL/FIX. THIS IS A SERIOUS DANGER!

IT STARTED WITH A SMALL OIL LEAK THAT TURNED INTO A BIG OIL LEAK COMING FROM THE OIL COOLER. THE HIGH THE TEMPERATURE THE MORE OIL THAT WOULD COME OUT. THIS OIL IS MIXED WITH COOLANT AS WELL. THIS IS NOT SAFE BECAUSE YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN IT'S GOING TO CRACK AND THEY WILL NOT COVER UNDER WARRANTY OR EXTENDED WARRANTY. THIS CAN BE A REAL SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE YOU CAN LOSE OIL PRESSURE WHICH CAN CAUSE ENGINE TO FAIL.

NOTICED AN OIL SPOT IN THE DRIVEWAY. TOOK THE JEEP TO MY MECHANIC WHO INFORMED ME THAT THIS IS A CRACKED OIL COOLER. HE SAID THAT THIS IS THE THIRD ONE HE HAS SEEN AND THE SECOND IN 2 WEEKS. ON THE FIRST ONE HE DID HE SAID IT TOOK 6 WEEKS TO GET THE PART AND THAT HIS CUSTOMER DROVE 6 HOURS TO GET THE PART. THERE IS A SEVERE BACK ORDER ON THESE PARTS. I HAVE NOW BEEN WAITING FOR 3 WEEKS FOR MY MECHANIC TO GET THE PART. HE WAS TOLD BY CHRYSLER THAT THE NEXT EXPECTED DELIVERY WOULD AROUND MAY 3RD. THAT WILL BE 6 WEEKS OF NOT BEING ABLE TO USE MY VEHICLE. THAT IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. I HAVE DONE SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND I AM FINDING THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM THAT CHRYSLER HAS KNOWN ABOUT SINCE 2014. IT STARTED TO HAPPEN TO VEHICLES WITH LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON THEM. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS PART. OR AT LEAST REDESIGN AND MAKE ENOUGH PARTS TO COVER THE DEMAND. WHY HAS THIS BEEN ALLOWED TO HAPPEN? $1000 TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM.

LEAKING OIL FILTER HOUSING. IT'S A KNOWN PROBLEM AND SO WIDESPREAD ACROSS JEEPS THAT THERE'S A NATIONAL SHORTAGE OF THE PART. I CAN'T EVEN GET IT FIXED. OIL AND COOLANT ARE LEAKING EVERYWHERE. IT'S A DANGER TO MY FAMILY AND THE ENVIRONMENT.

OIL COOLER HOUSING IS MADE WITH 2 TYPES OF MATERIAL THAT DOESN'T HAVE EQUAL CONTROL OF OIL EXPANSION WHEN IT IS HOT, THEREFORE HAVING TO REPLACE A OIL COOLER HOUSING BECAUSE OF THE PLASTIC PART OF IT CRACKED RESULTING TO REPLACE THE ENTIRE KIT. I HAD TO REPLACE IT 3 TIMES, BUT ONLY PAID ONCE OF THE REPLACEMENT COST. THE OTHER 2 WERE UNDER WARRANTY. I'VE RESEARCHED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH JEEP PART, PARTICULARLY WITH THE OIL COOLER HOUSING KIT. METAL AND PLASTIC SHOULD NOT BE A COMPLETE KIT TO CONTROL THE OIL FLOW. HEAT REACTIONS ARE NOT THE SAME.

2014 JEEP WRANGLER OIL LEAK NOTICED OIL ON CARPORT CHECKED LOW ON OIL ITS AN OIL COOLANT HOUSING CRACK HAVE CALLED FOR A MONTH AND A HALF CANNOT GET PART ITS ON BACK ORDER WHICH IS NOW UP TO 60,000 WAS TOLD TIGHTEN BOLT AND KEEP CHECKING OIL I MAY BE A FEMALE BUT IT'S NOT GONNA KEEP BEING JUST A CRACK WILL END UP TEARING MY JEEP UP OR CAUSE ACCIDENT ITS MY ONLY TRANSPORTATION WAS TOLD BY GUY AT DEALERSHIP ITS MADE TO GO OUT WHEN WARRANTY EXPIRES IT NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ON THE PART SINCE IT CAN CAUSE MORE DAMAGE

RIGHT REAR TAIL LIGHT NOT WORKING PROPERLY. ORIGINALLY IT WOULD WORK INTERMITTENTLY (WHEN I FIRST NOTICED THIS ISSUE) BUT NOW ITS NOT WORKING AT ALL(NO TAIL LIGHT, NO BLINKER). BULB IS GOOD(HAS BEEN CHANGED), FUSE IS GOOD ETC. I BELIEVE THERE MAY BE A GROUNDING OR WIRING HARNESS ISSUE BASED OFF THE DIAGNOSTICS I HAVE DONE. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN TRYING TO TROUBLE SHOOT THIS ISSUE.

FOUND OIL ALL OVER THE FLOOR OF MY GARAGE, HAD NOT DRIVEN JEEP. IT HAS JUST 30,000 MILES ON IT. BROUGHT TO DEALERS OVER 3 WEEKS AGO, THEY ARE STILL WAITING FOR A BACKORDERED PART. AND I AM WITHOUT MY JEEP. WAS TOLD 14,000 ON BACKORDER-IF ITS THAT BAD FOR BREAKAGE WHY IS THIS $1200+ REPAIR IS RECALL? I GOOGLED IT AND FOUND IT TO BE A BIG ISSUE.

MOPAR OIL COOLER HOUSING, WHICH HOUSES A COOLER AND OIL FILTER, SITS ON THE ENGINE AND HAS CRACKED, CAUSING OIL TO LEAK OUT OF IT. OIL LEAKS DOWN THE ENGINE AND ONTO THE TRANSMISSION HOUSING.

WHEN ARE YOU GOING TO MAKE CHRYSLER RECALL THE 3.6L V6 FOR THEIR OIL FILTER COOLER BASE BREAKING. I'M LUCKY MY VEHICLE DIDN'T CATCH FIRE WITH ALL THE HOT OIL RUNNING DOWN OVER THE ENGINE. THOUSANDS OF THESE MOTORS ARE IN THEIR PRODUCTS. AND ALL COST $1355 TO REPAIR. MINE WAS ONLY SERVICED AT THE DEALER, NO ONE ELSE. IT IS A WELL KNOWN DEFECT AND CHRYSLER IS STILL STICKING IT TO CUSTOMERS FOR REPAIRS. SURPRISED NO ONE HAS DIED IN A CAR FIRE.

WHEN DRIVING OR STATIONARY THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND A DING FOLLOWS. IT HAPPENS NO MATTER THE SITUATION WHEN I MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL.

TIPM MALFUNCTIONING. JEEP INDICATING DOOR AJAR/NOT IN PARK. VEHICLE HAS INDICATED OTHER PROBLEM VIA DASH WHILE DRIVING. TOOK TO MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD NEEDED NEW TIPM.

OIL COOLER AND FILTER HOUSING OIL LEAK. OIL BURNING SMELL FROM UNDERNEATH. POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. NUISANCE LEAK. AS WITH OTHERS, THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER. HAVE BEEN WITHOUT THE VEHICLE FOR OVER A WEEK.

OIL FILTER HOUSING IS LEAKING OIL, AND THERE IS A HUGE BACKORDER ON THE PART

MY OIL FILTER HOUSING HAS A LEAK AND NO ONE CAN GET THE PART. APPARENTLY THIS IS HAPPENING TO A LOT OF PEOPLE AS THE PART IS IN HIGH DEMAND. JEEP SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL.

LEAKING OIL FILTER HOUSING. OIL IN DRIVEWAY AFTER SITTING FROM EVEN A SHORT TRIP.

MAJOR OIL LEAK. TOOK TO MECHANIC. OIL COOLER NEEDS REPLACING. CHECKED ON JEEP FORUM, THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. MECHANIC WENT TO ORDER PART 3-4 MONTHS FOR A REPLACEMENT. JEEP HAS A BACK ORDER PROBLEM. WAS TOLD NOT TO DRIVE AS IT COULD OVERHEAT AND CAUSE A FIRE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE THAT JEEP IS IGNORING.

OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL FILTER HOUSING CASE. JEEP WAS STATIONARY AND NOTICED AN OIL LEAK UNDER VEHICLE. PART IS ON BACKORDER. JEEP SWITCHED FROM USING METAL HOUSING TO PLASTIC WHICH CRACKS WITH COLDER WEATHER.

NOTICE OIL LEAKS IN MY DRIVEWAY AND HAD IT CHECKED BY MECHANIC. FOUND OUT IT WAS THE OIL FILTER HOUSING/OIL COOLER AND THAT IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 3.6 MOTOR ALSO, FOUND OUT THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER DUE TO A LOT OF CUSTOMERS HAVING SAME ISSUE.

SMELLED A OIL BURNING SMELL INSIDE THE CAB. NOTICED A DRIPPING OF OIL ON THE GROUND. TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD THE OIL FILTER HOUSING WAS CRACKED. WHEN TRYING TO ORDER THE PART, WAS TOLD SEVERAL THOUSAND WERE ON BACK ORDER AND THEY HAD NO TIME FRAME TO GET ONE. I USE THIS VEHICLE FOR WORK AND NO ONE CAN TELL ME WHEN I CAN DRIVE MY VEHICLE. TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.

MY 2014 WRANGLER HAS THE DREADED OIL FILTER HOUSING / OIL COOLER LEAK. WHILE DRIVING I SMELLED BURNING OIL. THE NEXT MORNING I FOUND OIL ON MY GARAGE FLOOR AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP. $875 TO REPLACE THE PART. IN RESEARCHING THE ISSUE ON LINE, I DISCOVERED THIS IS A VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE AS THE MANUFACTURER CHOSE TO MAKE THE PART OUT OF PLASTIC.

I NOTICED OIL LEAKING FROM MY JEEP, FOUND SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OIL UNDER JEEP. IMMEDIATELY BROUGHT TO MY MECHANIC FOR REVIEW. THEY INDICATED THAT THE OIL COOLER WAS LEAKING A GOOD AMOUNT OF OIL AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. UNFORTUNATELY THERE ARE OVER 50,000 OIL COOLERS ON A 2 MONTH BACKORDER! MY MECHANIC SAID IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM FOR ALL 2014 V6 ENGINES. JEEP FORUM ADDITIONALLY HAS THOUSANDS OF COMMENTS REGARDING THIS SAME ISSUE.

OIL FILTER COOLER ADAPTER FAILED AT 55K MILES. JEEP LEAKED QUART OF OIL ON GROUND AND ANOTHER QUART IN INTAKE. IF JEEP WAS RUN ANOTHER 30 MIN THE ENGINE WOULD HAVE DESTROYED ITSELF DUE TO LACK OF OIL. COULD HAVE ASLO CAUSED FIRE IF OIL GOT ON HOT EXAHUST. VERY COMMON PROBLEM W PENSTAR 3.6. NO PARTS AVAILABLE IN USA AS OF 03-01-2021 MFR. REFUSES TO WARRANTY. CLAIMS OIL FILTER WAS TOO TIGHT, WHICH WAS NOT.

THE CONTACT PARKED THEIR VEHICLE WHEN THEY GOT TO THEIR RESIDENCE AND NOTICED A LARGE OIL LEAK COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO A LOCAL DEALER COUNTRY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (2705 N MICHIGAN ST, PLYMOUTH, IN 46563) WHO DIAGNOSED THE FAILURE AS A CRACK OIL HOUSING WHICH CAUSED THE OIL LEAK FROM THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED BECAUSE THE DEALER STATED THE PARTS FOR THE REPAIR WAS ON BACK ORDER AND THEY DO NOT KNOW WHEN THEY WOULD HAVE IT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 104,000.

AT 63,000 MILES MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT 4X4 STARTED LEAKING OIL REALLY BAD. LOOKED UP PROBLEMS PEOPLE HAVE WITH OIL LEAKS VIA THE INTERNET. FOUND OUT THERE HAVE BEEN MORE THAN A THOUSANDS OF PROBLEMS WITH THIS HAPPENING ALL OF A SUDDEN. TOOK IT TO A SHOP AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT IS LEAKING FROM A CRACKED "ENGINE OIL COOLER AND OIL FILTER HOUSING ADAPTER". CALLED AROUND FOR THIS PART AND ALL DEALERS HAD A BACK ORDER ON THIS PART AND DIDN'T KNOW WHEN THEY WOULD BE GETTING THEM IN. FINALLY LOCATED ONE FROM A DEALER IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA THROUGH A PERSON I KNEW PERSONALLY THAT WORKED FOR A DEALER. HE SAID THERE HAVE BEEN MORE THAN 4,200 ORDERS FOR THIS PART IN JUST SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA. THIS IS A VERY BIG PROBLEM! THIS CAN LEAD TO THE ENGINE CATCHING FIRE. ALSO A VERY EXPENSIVE COST FOR JUST THE PART AND THAN THEY STILL HAVE TO REMOVE THE UPPER AND LOWER INTAKE PLENUM GASKETS NEEDING REPLACEMENT WHEN THIS PART IS REPLACED. THE LEAKING OF OIL HAS BEEN HAPPENING OVER A WEEK OR SO.

OIL COOLING HOUSE IS CRACKED, DUE TO EXTREMELY COLD WEATHER IN OKLAHOMA. OIL IS LEAKING AND THERE IS A BURNING SMELL WHEN DRIVING. AT THIS POINT IN TIME, THIS OEM PART IS ON BACK ORDER, CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE WITH DRIVING. THE CHANCE OF AN ENGINE FIRE / BLOWN ENGINE DUE TO LOW OIL. BEING A JEEP OWNER THIS BACK ORDER IS UNACCEPTABLE. AT THIS TIME, I HAVE AN ESTIMATE FOR $1600.00 IN REPAIRS TO FIX THIS ISSUE WITH A JEEP DEALER IN TOWN

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT DUE TO THE COLD WEATHER, THE OIL COOLER FRACTURED WHILE STATIONARY AND PARKED IN A PARKING LOT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 109,000.

DURING THE WINTER STORM IN TEXAS TEMPERATURES WHERE BELOW 0. MY FAMILY WAS WITHOUT POWER AND NEED TO EVACUATE. AFTER STARTING THE ENGINE I STARTED TO SMELL BURNING OIL WITH THE ENGINE IDLING. I NOTICED THERE WAS ENGINE OIL DRIPPING FROM TRANSMISSION, DRIVESHAFTS AND SKID PLATES. I TRACED THE OIL BACK UP TO THE ENGINE AND THEN FURTHER TO THE TOP OF THE ENGINE. THERE IS ENGINE OIL AND COOLANT POOLED IN THE VALLEY BETWEEN THE ENGINE HEADS, UNDERNEATH THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. THE OIL FILTER/COOLER ASSEMBLY IS LEAKING EITHER THE O-RINGS ARE BAD OR THE PLASTIC HOUSING HAS CRACKED. RESEARCHING I FOUND THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR SOME TIME. CLEARLY A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. WHY NO RECALLS? PLUS THE PART FROM RETAILERS STATE THE THE PART IS NO LONGER AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE ODOR OF BURNING OIL WAS PRESENT. UPON INSPECTION IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT ENGINE OIL HAD LEAKED ON THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT OIL COOLER FILTER ASSEMBLY WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER NESTER JEEP LOCATED AT 7566 W HOUGHTON LAKE DR, HOUGHTON LAKE, MI 48629 CONTACTED REGARDING THE FAILURE.THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT YET NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000.

2014 JEEP WRANGLER 3.6L , OIL COOLER LEAKING ENGINE OIL ON TOP OF THE ENGINE AND LEAKING OIL ON HOT EXHAUST, THIS COULD POSSIBLY START A FIRE.

I NOTICED A LARGE PUDDLE OF OIL WHEN MOVING VEHICLE FROM PARKED POSITION. THERE WAS NO INDICATOR ON VEHICLE THAT IT WAS LOW ON OIL. WHEN CHECKING THE OIL LEVEL IN THE VEHICLE, THERE WAS NONE SHOWING ON THE DIP STICK. ALL OIL HAD LEAKED OUT OF VEHICLE. WE HAD THE VEHICLE TAKEN TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP. WE WERE TOLD THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR/MAKE/MODEL. IT WAS THE OIL FILTER HOUSING DEFECTIVE RELEASING ALL OIL FROM VEHICLE. THIS PART IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER AND NOT EXPECTED TO BE AVAILABLE FOR 45 OR MORE DAYS. THIS TELLS ME THAT IT IS A PROBLEM WITH THE MANUFACTURING OF THE VEHICLE. WHAT IF I HAD NOT NOTICED THE OIL THAT HAD LEAKED OUT AND MY THE ENGINE LOCK UP WHILE DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY.

RUNNING ERRANDS IN THE JEEP I STARTED TO SMELL BURNING OIL WHILE STOPPED WITH THE ENGINE IDLING. RETURNED HOME TO NOTICE THERE WAS ENGINE OIL DRIPPING FROM TRANSMISSION, DRIVESHAFTS AND SKID PLATES. I TRACED THE OIL BACK UP TO THE ENGINE AND THEN FURTHER TO THE TOP OF THE ENGINE. THERE IS ENGINE OIL AND COOLANT POOLED IN THE VALLEY BETWEEN THE ENGINE HEADS, UNDERNEATH THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. THE DIAGNOSIS IS THE OIL FILTER/COOLER ASSEMBLY. EITHER THE O-RINGS ARE BAD OR THE PLASTIC HOUSING HAS CRACKED. THE JEEP IS OUT OF WARRANTY FOR BOTH THE BUMPER TO BUMPER AND THE POWERTRAIN. HOWEVER, THE JEEP HAS LESS THAN 50K MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THE REPAIR WILL BE DONE BY MY SELF AS MY ABILITIES ARE COMPETENT AND I REFUSE TO PAY 1200.00 DOLLARS FOR A MECHANIC OR DEALERSHIP TO PERFORM THIS TASK, PARTICULARLY SEEING THE TOTAL COST OF PARTS IS LESS THAN 250.00. FCA SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE AS LEAKS IN THE LUBRICATING AND COOLING SYSTEM COULD RESULT IN CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE, VEHICLE FIRES, LOSS OF LIFE OR GREAT BODILY HARM AND HARM TO SURROUNDING INDIVIDUALS, PROPERTY AND/OR THE ENVIRONMENT. SOUNDS LIKE ENOUGH TO WARRANT A RECALL, IF YOU ASK ME.

OIL FILTER HOUSING IS CRACKED. UPON TALKING TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY SAID THIS IS A KNOWN AND FREQUENT ISSUE.

FOLLOWING A MANDATORY PCM FLASH RECALL, I'VE BEEN HAVING TROUBLE WITH MY '14 JEEP WRANGLER'S AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. IT WILL INTERMITTENTLY NOT UPSHIFT UNDER HEAVY ACCELERATION. INSTEAD, THE ENGINE REVS TO 4K, AND IT WILL STAY IN THE GEAR. ONLY IF I LET OFF THE GAS AND ALLOW IT TO RESET, THEN GRADUALLY ACCELERATE WILL IT WORK PROPERLY. THE DEALERSHIP AND JEEP HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIGURE OUT THE ISSUE, HAVING REPLACED THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION, PCM, AND ECU, AS WELL AS NUMEROUS OTHER PARTS AND SENSORS. I FULLY BELIEVE THIS IS COMPUTER SOFTWARE RELATED, BUT THE MANUFACTURER IS REFUSING TO ACKNOWLEDGE THIS AS A POTENTIAL ISSUE. FOR THE LONGEST TIME, I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET A DTC CODE, BUT MOST RECENTLY FOUND A STORED ONE THAT APPEARS TO DIRECT THE ISSUE TO THE CAN-BUS COMMUNICATION ISSUE. ATTACHING SCREENSHOT.

ROCKER ARMS WERE REPLACED AT 88,000 MILES AND NOW AT 110,000 THEY NEED REPLACED AGAIN. OIL CHANGES DONE AT EVERY 3000 MILES DUE TO DUSTY CONDITIONS ON MAIL ROUTE. VERY FRUSTRATING SEVERAL CO-WORKERS HAVE SAME COMPLAINT AS THESE VEHICLES ARE GREAT FOR THE JOB THEY ARE BUILT FOR . THIS EXPENSE SHOULD NOT BE A FACTOR IN CONSIDERING THESE VEHICLES FOR PURCHASE TO WORK AT THIS JOB..

THE IGNITION APPEARED TO GO OUT ON OUR 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHEN YOU TURN THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, THERE WAS NO SOUND. IT DID NOT TRY TO CRANK. ALL OTHER ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS LIKE HEADLIGHTS, RADIO, ETC STILL WORKED. I TOOK IT TO AUTO NATION JEEP IN ROSEVILLE AND THEY SAID THE TIPM NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT $1400. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN THE GARAGE.

RADIATOR ON THESE MODELS START LEAKING PREMATURELY. THERE ARE MANY DOCUMENTED CASES ON ONLINE FORUMS WITH RADIATORS GOING OUT OR LEAKING WITH ONLY A FEW THOUSAND MILES AND BEING COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER, SOME DEALERS WOULD ARGUE THAT THE COOLANT SMELL IS NORMAL, IN ORDER TO PUSH THE REPAIR FURTHER OUT. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 46K MILES AND HAS A LEAK ON THE DRIVER SIDE PORTION OF THE RADIATOR WHERE THE ALUMINUM PART OF THE RADIATOR MEETS WITH THE PLASTIC PART OF THE RADIATOR. THE LEAK IS VERY SLOW AND MOST PEOPLE MIGHT NOT REALIZE IT (THIS IS WHAT MAKES IT EVEN MORE DANGEROUS!!) OTHER THAN FOR THE COOLANT SMELL NEAR THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. I BELIEVE A DEFECTIVE RADIATOR LIKE THIS COULD CAUSE SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN AS ITS HIGHLY PROBABLE TO BLOW AT ANYTIME GIVEN HOW MUCH PRESSURE IS IN THE COOLING SYSTEM. THIS WOULD BE DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY DEADLY IF IT WERE TO GO OUT ON THE FREEWAY, OR OUT IN A REMOTE AREA, OR EVEN FOR SOMEONE WORKING IN THE ENGINE BAY OR UNDER THE CAR. JEEP KNOWS THIS IS A PROBLEM, BUT IF YOU'RE OUT OF WARRANTY THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, EVEN IF IT'S NOT THE FIRST TIME IT'S HAPPENED.

DEFECTIVE COOLER HOUSING ASSEMBLY IN JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED 2014

MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WE GOT THE MACHINE ATTACHED THE CODE READ PO520 ENGINE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT. WHEN WE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT WASN'T UNDER WARRANTY ANY LONGER AND WOULDN'T REPAIR. WHILE I RESEARCHED WE FOUND A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN THAT WAS ISSUED PRIOR TO THE WARRANTY EXPIRATION. THE OIL SENSOR SHOULD HAVE AND COULD HAVE BEEN REPLACED PRIOR TO THE WARRANTY EXPIRING IF THE DEALERSHIPS WERE MANDATED TO NOTIFY AND FIX ALL REPAIRS RELATED TO DEFECTIVE PARTS. DURING MY RESEARCH WE FOUND THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG IS A RECALL IN EXTENDED WARRANTY STATUS. REGARDLESS IF WE GOT THE EXTENDED WARRANTY IT IS ILLEGAL FOR A DEALERSHIP TO SELL A USED VEHICLE WITH A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG OR A RECALL. IT IS ALSO ILLEGAL FOR ME NOT TO GET IT FIXED OR MY REGISTRATION CAN BE REVOKED. I SHOULD NOT BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS COST TO REPAIR EITHER OF THESE ITEMS. I AM JUST ASKING YOU TO PLEASE TAKE THESE ISSUES SERIOUSLY AND TO HAVE BOTH THESE PARTS REPLACED. IF THIS WASN'T BAD ENOUGH, THIS TIME OF YEAR, COVID AND MY CURRENT FINANCIAL SITUATION IT MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT FOR ME. PLEASE HELP ME.

OIL FILTER HOUSING LEAKING QUARTS OF OIL. THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD BECAUSE OF WHERE IT IS LOCATED. I HAVE SEEN 1000,S OF COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS. THIS MORNING I STARTED MY CAR TO WARM UP AND THERE WAS A POOL OF OIL UNDERNEATH OF IT. MY OIL LEAK STARTED ABOUT 2 WEEKS AGO, STARTED SMALL AND NOW IT IS DUMPING OIL

VEHICLE STALLS WHEN STARTED, BRAKE DEPRESSED AND SHIFTED INTO REVERSE. WILL OCCUR SEVERAL TIMES IN A ROW, UNLESS BRAKE PEDAL IS RELEASED AS SOON AS VEHICLE IS SHIFTED INTO REVERSE. WHEN BRAKE IS RELEASED, VEHICLE ACCELERATES UNUSUALLY FAST, IN REVERSE, WITHOUT DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL. PROBLEM IS MORE PROMINENT IN COLDER WEATHER (BELOW 40F).

2014 3.6L OIL FILTER/HOUSING/COOLER CRACK LEAK OIL ON ENGINE SMELL OF BURNING (FIRE HAZARD)

MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER JKU HAS 86737 MILES AND DEVELOPED AN OIL LEAK. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTICS/REPAIR, AND WAS TOLD "MASSIVE LEAK FROM OIL COOLER HAS SATURATED ENGINE BLOCK VALLEY AND SPILLING OVER ON TO TRANSMISSION AND UNDER BODY". AS STATED FROM THE DEALER, THE OIL LEAK DOES NOT DRAIN FROM THE ENGINE, BUT POOLS IN THE ENGINE BLOCK VALLEY UNTIL IT FILLS AND THEN RUNS OVER THE REST OF THE TRANSMISSION/ENGINE. THIS CREATES A FIRE HAZARD.. AS STATED FROM THE DEALER, THE OIL FILTER/COOLER ASSEMBLY (MOPAR PART # 05184294AE) IS LOCATED IN THE ENGINE BLOCK VALLEY, SO IT IS VERY PROTECTED FROM EXTERNAL DAMAGE. THE SEALS JUST LEAK. THIS DEFECT COST OVER $1000 TO REPAIR. FROM THE NUMBER OF OTHER OCCURRENCES I HAVE READ ABOUT, THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE.

OIL HOUSING COOLER CRACKED, LEAKING OIL POOLING ALL DOWN INTO UNDERCARRIAGE. POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD

IN 2014 MOPAR STARTED USING A PLASTIC OIL FILER / COOLER HOUSING ON THE 3.6 PENSTAR ENGINES. THIS PLASTIC OIL FILER/COOLER HOUSING IS EASY TO CRACK OR DEVELOP OIL LEAKS. THE OIL THEN PUDDLES UP UNDER THE INTAKE MANIFOLD LAYING AGAINST THE HOT ENGINE BLOCK. IT APPEARS TO BE A FAULTY DESIGN THAT COULD RESULT IN ENGINE FIRES OR BREAKDOWNS FROM LOSS OF OIL. THIS IS USED ON LOTS OF DIFFERENT MODELS OF VEHICLES. MINE IS THE 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. THE OIL LEAKS ANYTIME THE ENGINE IS RUNNING. AFTER THE ENGINE VALLEY IS FULL THE OIL RUNS DOWN THE BACK OF THE ENGINE AND FALLS ON THE TRANSMISSION BELL HOUSING AND EXHAUST PIPE CAUSING BURNING OIL SMELL AND POSSIBLE FIRE HAZARD. MOPAR SHOULD REPLACE THESE ON ALL VEHICLES AFTER THE 2014 YEAR.

I PURCHASED A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WITH THE 3.6 LITER PENTASTAR ENGINE. I BOUGHT IT WITH 75K MILES. AFTER DRIVING ABOUT 500 MILES, THERE WAS A VERY LOUD TICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE LEFT SIDE OF THE ENGINE. I CONTACTED THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND SAID THE REPAIRS START AT $2,200. I DID SOME RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET PERTAINING TO THIS TICKING AND NUMEROUS VIDEOS ON YOUTUBE SHOWING HOW TO REPAIR THE LIFTER NOISE. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND I FEEL CHRYSLER SHOULD MAKE THE FIX.

2014 JEEP WRANGLER WITH 43,000 MILES SEVERE OIL LEAK FROM OIL FILTER HOUSING. OIL WENT FROM SMALL DRIP TO SEVERE LEAK WITH OIL COATING CROSS MEMBER AND EXHAUST PIPE WITHIN WEEKS. OIL DRIPPING AND COATING THE HOT EXHAUST IS A FIRE HAZZARD AND YOU CAN SMELL THE BURNING OIL AT EVERY STOP LIGHT. $1000 REPAIR AT THE DEALER.

THE OIL COOLER/OIL FILTER ADAPTOR FAILED. THIS PART IS PLASTIC AND SITS ON TOP OF THE ENGINE....! SINCE 2014 THIS PART HAS FAILED IN MANY FCA VEHICLES AND WHEN IT DOES IT LEAKS OIL AND COOLANT ON TOP OF A RUNNING/HOT ENGINE! IN MY CASE IT FAILED AND CAUSED A LOSS OF OIL PRESSURE WHICH THEN DAMAGED THE CAM SHAFTS AND O2 SENSOR. LUCKILY IT WAS COVERED BY WARRANTY BUT WHEN THAT RUNS OUT IT'S NOT ONLY A SAFETY ISSUE BUT A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR FOR A FAILING PLASTIC PART THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED BY NOW! THE COMPANY SHOULD AT A MINIMUM EXTEND THE WARRANTY FOR THAT PART ON EVERY ENGINE IT HAS BEEN USED IN.

AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT AND AUDIBLE TONE COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY GOES AND COMES WHILE DRIVING AND OR IDLING. PASSENGER SIDE INFLATOR WAS REPLACED WITH RECALL. RESEARCHING THIS WARNING MANY 2014 JK'S ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. RESEARCH POINTS DIRECTLY TO THE CLOCK SPRING. FCA USA SHOULD REPLACE THE PART AS A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR RHD JK'S AND MANY LHD JK'S ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE.

I ONLY HAVE 56,000 MILES ON MY 2014 JEEP RUBICON UNLIMITED AND THE MOTOR IS ALREADY MAKING A TICKING NOISE.. NOT ONLY DO I CHANGE MY OIL AT THE RECOMMENDED MILEAGE I ALSO BUY THE MOST EXPENSIVE AND THE BEST OIL SO I WOULDN'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

THE BACK SEAT BELT WRAPPED AROUND MY DAUGHTERS NECK AND THE LOCK MECHANISM WOULD NOT RELEASE AND EVERY TIME SHE PULLED ON IT THE BELT GOT TIGHTER UNTIL THE POINT SHE FAINTED AND COULD HAVE DIED HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR A PASSERBY CARRYING AN ARMY KNIFE, ALLOWING US TO CUT THE BELT THEREBY FREEING HER. ALMOST A DEATH SITUATION OUT OF THE BLUE. THIS HAPPENED WHEN WE WERE DRIVING AND THEN STOPPED IN A PARKING LOT TO RELEASE HER.*DT*JB*DT*DT*JB*JB*JB*DT*JB

WHILE DRIVING, AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON WHEN 20MPH OR MAYBE 10MINS OF DRIVING. LIGHT WILL GO OFF WHEN STOPPED. AND WILL RETURN AGAIN AT 20MPH OR 10MORE MIN OF DRIVING. IT WILL OCCASIONALLY STAY ON.

2014 JEEP WRANGLER POLAR ADDITION OIL COOLER FILTER HOUSING LEAK. MANY MANY JEEP'S ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. STARTED LEAKING OIL IN THIS AREA. SMELLED BURNING OIL WHEN I RUN IT AND ALSO GETS OVERHEATED. HTTPS://WWW.JK-FORUM.COM/FORUMS/STOCK-JK-TECH-12/ATTENTION-2014-WRANGLERS-HAVE-BAD-OIL-LEAK-PROBLEMS-303650/

ENGINE OIL LEAK (FIRE HAZARD). THE ENGINE OIL FILTER HOUSING (PART NUMBER 68105583AA) IS WIDELY REPORTED TO FAULTY BY OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE YEAR (2014). THIS PART CRACKS UNDER ROUTINE DRIVING AND LEAKS ENGINE OIL ONTO HOT SYSTEM COMPONENTS, SUCH AS THE EXHAUST CROSS OVER AND TRANSMISSION, WHERE THE OIL BURNS AND CREATES A FIRE HAZARD. MYSELF AND MY PASSENGERS HAVE NOTICED THIS SMOKE BEFORE IT IGNITED. HOWEVER OTHERS HAVE REPORTED A FIRE. THE OIL LEAK GENERALLY OCCURS WHEN THE ENGINE HAS COME UP TO TEMPERATURE AND THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN MOTION LONG ENOUGH TO REACH NORMAL OPERATING OIL PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE. THE PROBLEM OCCURS IF THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION, REGARDLESS OF ROAD CONDITIONS. THE LEAK IS NOT IMMEDIATELY DETECTED BY A LOW OIL PRESSURE, HIGH TEMPERATURE, OR OTHER SIMILAR WARNING, FURTHER INCREASING THE FIRE RISK. FURTHER, THE LEAKING OIL POSSES AN ENVIRONMENTAL DANGER AND IS HAZARDOUS. PRIOR MODEL YEARS HAD A DIFFERENT, METAL PART WHICH DOES NOT CRACK AND LEAK UNDER ROUTINE USE. IT IS BELIEVED WHEN THIS PART WAS REPLACED WITH A PLASTIC COMPONENT IN 2014+ MODELS, THE NEW, PLASTIC PART WAS DEFECTIVE OR INSUFFICIENT FOR ITS HIGH TEMPERATURE OPERATING ENVIRONMENT INSIDE THE ENGINE. THIS PART SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED BY THE MANUFACTURER (FCA). ATTACHED PHOTO SHOWS: OIL (LIGHT BROWN) POOLING BENEATH LEAKING OIL FILTER HOUSING (FOREGROUND) ON THE ENGINE BLOCK ITSELF.

2014 JEEP WRANGLER PENTASTAR OIL COOLER LEAKS WHICH POURS ONTO EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND STARTS ON FIRE. HAPPENED TO ME COMING HOME FROM WORK. LUCKILY I WAS IN THE DRIVEWAY AND I PUT IT OUT WITH MY EXTINGUISHER. OIL EVERYWHERE LEAKING DOWN ENGINE AND ON THE UNDER CARRIAGE. CAUGHT IT IN TIME AND NOTHING ELSE WAS EFFECTED. GOOD THING I WASN'T ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY WHOLE FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE. FCA US LLC SHOULD FIX THIS ISSUE. VERY SCARY ESPECIALLY WHEN UNEXPECTED. PLEASE FCA US LLC FIX THIS ISSUE SO IT NO LONGER HAPPENS TO OTHER FAMILIES. CAUSE IT SURE LOOKS LIKE IT'S A PROBLEM.

VEHICLE SHOWING CEL (CHECK ENGINE LIGHT) WITH NO PERFORMANCE ISSUES NOTED. CODE READ AND SHOWS P0520 RELATED TO THE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR SWITCH. AFTER REVIEWING FORUMS, DETERMINED THAT A TSB EXISTS BUT NO RECALL ALTHOUGH THE DESIGN OF THE UNIT HAS BEEN CHANGED DUE TO DEFECT. REPLACING THIS UNIT TOOK A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF TIME AND EFFORT AS A LARGE AMOUNT OF THE TOP HALF OF THE MOTOR HAS TO BE REMOVED TO REVEAL THE SENSOR. REPLACED AND VEHICLE HAS BEEN OPERATING FREE OF THE CEL SINCE THAT TIME AND ACCURATE OIL PRESSURE READINGS ARE BEING RECEIVED. WITHOUT THE REPAIR, THE VEHICLE CANNOT PASS A NYS SAFETY INSPECTION AND FEATURES OF THE VEHICLE ARE DISABLED.

THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH FAULTY OIL COOLERS THAT A BUNCH OF PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING AND JEEP SHOULD BE FIXING THESE AS A FAULTY PART. MANY OWNERS OF THE 2014 MODELS AND POSSIBLY OTHER MODELS HAVE EXPERIENCED CRACKED OIL COOLER HOUSINGS.

CLOCK SPRING- AFTER RESEARCHING ON THE WEB, THEIR ARE MANY PEOPLE WITH THIS COMPLAIN AND WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. MY STEERING WHEEL BUTTONS DO NOT FUNCTION, ALONG WITH THE HORN. NOT HAVING THE HORN FUNCTIONING IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I HAD AN INCIDENT WHERE I COULD HAVE DIED, SIMPLY BECAUSE OF MY UNFUNCTION CLOCK SPRING. A SEMI TRUCK WAS BACKING UP, NOT REALIZING I WAS BEHIND AND I COULD NOT USED MY HORN TO HUNK. IF IT WASN'T FOR ANOTHER DRIVER BY MY SIDE, THE SEMI TRUCK WOULD HAVE CRASHED ME. PLEASE WE NEED THIS TO BE A RECALL. THANKS

VEHICLE ONLY HAS ABOUT 66K MILES AND AFTER A NEW OIL CHANGE, I COULD HEAR A TICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE BAY. AFTER TAKING IT TO A MECHANIC AND RESEARCHING FOR SIMILAR ISSUES FROM OTHER JEEP OWNERS. IT SEEMS THE 3.6L PENTASTAR ENGINE IS NOTORIOUS FOR HAVING A CAMSHAFT OR LIFTER GO BAD

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE VEHICLE LOSS MOTIVE POWER AND STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT COASTED TO THE SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND OPERATED AS INTENDED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LOVE PREOWNED AUTOCENTER (4401 S PADRE ISLAND DR, CORPUS CHRISTI, TX 78411), TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE RECEIVED A NEW COMPUTER AND THE RELAY PANEL WAS REPLACED. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE SAME DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED AND REMAINED AT THE DEALER UNREPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 71,452.

TOOK IN FOR OIL CHANGE AND THEY FOUND A LEAK IN THE BACK OF THE ENGINE ON THE DRIVERS SIDE DRIPPING DOWN AFTER THE OIL CHANGE. COULD NOT FIND WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM.

CRACK IN OIL FILTER HOUSEING

MY JEEP STALLED TWICE WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. WOULD NOT START IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING EACH EVENT. LOSS OF BRAKES AND POWER STEERING WHILE DRIVING AT SPEED CREATED SAFETY HAZARD TO ME AND SURROUNDING DRIVERS.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN ROAD AND LOST POWER LIKE IT DROPPED INTO NEUTRAL. PULL OVER TO SIDE OF THE ROAD AND BY TIME I STOPPED HAD SMOKE COMING INTO THE CAB. GOT OUT AND SAW FLAMES IN ENGINE COMPARTMENT. CALLED POLICE AND FIRE BUT VEHICLE WAS TOTAL LOSS.*DT CONSUMER STATED THERE WERE NO ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND NO ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. FLAMES WERE COMING FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE.*JB

THE PLASTIC OIL FILTER HOUSING CRACKED AT ABOUT 26,000 MILES CAUSING A MAJOR ENGINE OIL LEAK FROM THE TOP OF THE ENGINE. OIL HAS LEAKED DOWN AND SPLATTERED ALL OVER THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE TRANSMISSION AND EXHAUST PIPE CAUSING SIGNIFICANT SMOKING AND A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. THE MECHANIC ADVISED THAT THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE ON 3.6L PENTASTAR V6 ENGINES AND THE THE ONLY FIX IS A REPLACEMENT OF THE PART AT A COST OF $830.

THE OIL FILTER ADAPTER IN MY JEEP WRANGLER CRACKED DOOR IS BROKEN AND IS CAUSING OIL TO LEAK INTO MY COOLER AND DAMAGE THAT

THE RADIO IN MY JK 2014 SAHARA KEPT OVER HEATING AND NOW DOES NOT WORK AT ALL IT IS COMPLETELY BLACK SCREEN

RADIATOR WENT BAD

CLOCK SPRING IS APPARENTLY DAMAGED AND NOT ALLOWING THE HORN, AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT OR RADIO CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO FUNCTION PROPERLY.

THE OIL COOLER/FILTER HOUSING IS LEAKING OIL. THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE ON THE 2014 JEEP WRANGLER AS EVIDENCED ACROSS OWNERSHIP FORUMS AND WEBSITES. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 63,000 MILES AND IS DRIVEN ON NORMAL CITY/HIGHWAY STREETS. ALL NORMAL MAINTENANCE HAS BEEN DONE ON TIME AT DEALERSHIPS. I FEEL THAT A RECALL SHOULD BE CONSIDERED FOR THIS PART DUE TO THE VOLUME OF REPAIRS AND THE NUMEROUS RE-DESIGNS THAT JEEP HAS PERFORMED ON THE REPLACEMENT PARTS. THE REDESIGNS SIGNAL THAT JEEP KNOWS THERE IS AN INHERENT DESIGN ISSUE THAT LEADS TO FAILURE.

LOUD TICKING FROM THE LEFT SIDE OF ENGINE. A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH MANY MODEL YEARS OF JEEPS. I WAS TOLD I DO NOT HAVE THE WARRANTY ANY LONGER BECAUSE MY WARRANTY FOR THE VEHICLE STARTED IN 2013. IF I DID, THIS KNOWN ISSUE WOULD NOT BE COVERED. SHOP WANTED 3K DOLLARS TO REPAIR. SOUND HAPPENS WITH CAR RUNNING ALL THE TIME IN DRIVE OR JUST IDLE. GETS LOUDER AS I ACCELERATE.

THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEATBELT DOES NOT ALWAYS STAY LATCHED IN PLACE. WHETHER OR NOT THE LATCH IS CONNECTED, IT SHOWS THAT THE SEATBELT NEEDS CONNECTED AND THE CHIME CONTINUOUSLY RINGS, WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. WORRIED WHETHER THIS WILL AFFECT OTHER SAFETY FEATURES, IN THE VEHICLE. ESPECIALLY THE AIRBAG. THIS ISSUE STARTED ON JULY 27, 2020.

WHEN MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER JKU IS RUNNING, THERE IS A LOUD ENGINE TICKING NOISE THAT IS COMING FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE ENGINE. IT IS A LIFTER THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AS WELL AS THE CAM. THE JEEP RUNS FINE, BUT THE NOISE IS TROUBLING. IT'S A COSTLY REPAIR!

MOTOR HAS A CONSTANT TIC SEEMS TO BE GETTING LOUDER AS TIME GOES ON

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD MY MECHANIC SHOP CHECK THE CODES AND THE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR THAT IS MOUNTED IN THE OIL FILTER HOUSING WENT OUT AT 64000 MILES. THE REPAIRS ARE VERY EXPENSIVE SINCE THE INTAKE MANIFOLD WILL NEED TO BE REMOVED TO REPLACE THE PARTS. THE OIL FILTER HOUSING WHICH THE OIL PRESSURE MOUNTS INTO WILL ALSO NEED TO BE REPLACED SINCE IT WAS LEAKING. THE SHOP ADVISED THEY HAVE REPLACED SEVERAL IN THE LAST FEW MONTHS AND THE ISSUE WAS VERY COMMON.

THE PLASTIC OIL FILTER HOUSING CRACKED AT ABOUT 80,000 MILES CAUSING A MAJOR ENGINE OIL LEAK FROM THE TOP OF THE ENGINE. OIL HAS LEAKED DOWN AND SPLATTERED ALL OVER THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE EXHAUST PIPE CAUSING SIGNIFICANT SMOKING AND A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. THE MECHANIC ADVISED THAT THIS IS A COMMON FAILURE ON 3.6L PENTASTAR V6 ENGINES AND THE ONLY FIX IS A REPLACEMENT OF THE PART. THE MECHANIC ALSO PROVIDED HIS OPINION THAT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE IS A POOR DESIGN DUE TO MATERIAL DURABILITY. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN MAINTAINED AT ITS REGULAR INTERVALS AND HAS RECEIVED LIGHT TO MODERATE USE OVER ITS LIFETIME SO FAR WITH MOSTLY HIGHWAY MILES. *TR

FRONT AXLE LEAKING SEALS ON BOTH SIDES ARE BAD, PAYED . $1100.00 TO GET IT FIX . 4 MONTHS LATER REAR AXLE SEALS NEED REPLACING . FRONT AN BACK LEAKED FLUIDS TO MY BRAKES WHICH SLIPPED THROUGH STOPPING DISTANCE. KNOW ANOTHER $1100.00. BRAKE PADS IN FRONT AND BACK STILL NEW WHEN CAR BOUGHT . MECHANICS CAN'T BELIEVE IT, BAD PARTS FROM FACTORY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE BRAKING SYSTEM ERRONEOUSLY ACTIVATED CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO ABRUPTLY STOP. DURING THE FAILURE TRACTION CONTROL AND ABS SENSOR WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED ILLUMINATED. SEVERAL MINUTES LATER THE SENSOR LIGHT DISAPPEARED AND THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS DESIGNED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 27,000.

WHILE SITTING AT AN INTERSECTION, WE COULD SMELL BURNING OIL AND SMOKE. GOT THE JEEP HOME AND FOUND A STEADY DRIP OF OIL AROUND BELL HOUSING. FOUND THAT ENGINE VALLEY IS OVERFLOWING WITH OIL, OIL FILTER ADAPTER HOUSING FAILURE AND CAUSING OIL TO LEAK ONTO HOT ENGINE CREATING INTENSE SMOKE. FOUND THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE ON CHRYSLER/JEEP 3.6 LITER PENTASTAR ENGINES AND HUNDREDS OF COMPLAINTS. THE REPAIR FOR THIS COMMON ENVIRONMENTAL FIRE HAZARD IS COSTLY. WHY IS THIS NOT A RECALL?

THE LIFTERS ARE SOUNDING AND CAN CAUSE THE ENGINE TO MAL FUNCTION OR STOP WORKING ALL TOGETHER. I KNOW OF 2 OTHER PEOPLE CLOSE TO ME THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO ALSO. *TR

I WAS JUST STARTING A DRIVE HOME WHEN SUDDENLY MY CARS "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT CAME ON AND IT REFUSED TO GO HIGHER THAN 3RD GEAR. WITHIN MINUTES, MY ENGINE WAS STARTING TO OVERHEAT. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO COAST INTO A NEARBY AUTO REPAIR PLACE FOR THEM TO CHECK THINGS OUT. THEIR DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT MY OIL COOLING HOUSING CRACKED AND HAS BEEN LEAKING OIL EVERYWHERE, INCLUDING THE UNDERCARRIAGE (WHICH I'M TOLD IS A FIRE HAZARD). THEY ALSO SAID IT'S A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2014 MODELS AND THEY'RE SHOCKED JEEP HASN'T ISSUED A RECALL ON IT. I LATER DID SOME READING AND FOUND HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS, OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED FOR THIS FAULTY PART INSTEAD OF MAKING ALL OF US PAY $750+ TO FIX IT. *TR

I OWN A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SPORT. WENT FOR MY OIL CHANGE AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME I NEED TO REPLACE THE OIL COOLER ASSEMBLY BECAUSE IT CRACKED AND IS LEAKING OIL AND THE ENGINE OIL IS POOLING IN THE PAN. AT THE TUNE OF $1200. I WENT HOME AND FOUND THIS IS MANUFACTURING DEFECT WITH HUNDREDS/ THOUSANDS HAVE THIS PROBLEM WITH THEIR 2014 WRANGLERS. I SEE JUST A FEW WHO HAD THIS COVERED UNDER WARRANTY BUT NOT WITHOUT A HASSLE FROM DEALERSHIPS. MOST, LIKE MYSELF ARE TOLD IT'S NOT COVERED. 5 YEAR/ 100,000 MI. NOW 6 YEARS. I BELIEVE I'VE HAD THIS PROBLEM FOR AWHILE BUT NOW AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED IT'S BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION. THE PROBLEM LIES WITH A PIECE CHANGED FROM METAL TO PLASTIC. IT CRACKED AND WILL BE REPLACED WITH ANOTHER PLASTIC PIECE THAT WILL MOST LIKELY CRACK AGAIN. IF THAT'S NOT BAD ENOUGH, I SEE IT'S ALSO A SAFETY HAZARD! HOT OIL POOLED IN THE BOTTOM PAN AND ON THE ENGINE HAS CAUSED FIRES. JEEP ON THEIR OWN HASN'T MADE THE OIL COOLER CRACK A RECALL. NO SURPRISE THERE. BUT IT'S TIME THEY NEED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT ! LOOK AT HOW MANY HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM! PLEASE!! *TR

OIL FILTER HOUSING/COOLER SEEMS TO BE LEAKING. THIS SEEMS TO BE A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER PRODUCTS. I AM NOT SURE HOW LONG THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN OCCURRING BUT IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. *TR

FOUR MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING A USED WRANGLER UNLIMITED I GOT A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND CODES P0205 AND P0305. UPON READING UP ON THESE CODES IT IS A VERY WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 3.6L PENTASTAR ENGINE. THE INJECTOR COIL HAD ALREADY BEEN REPLACED IN CYLINDER 5 SO MY GUESS IS THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THE SAME ISSUE. IT HAS SLIGHTLY OVER 60,000 MILES ON IT AND IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER ENGINE WARRANTY. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED TO ME WAS AFTER A 120 MILE DRIVE. I STOPPED FOR GAS AND WHEN I TURNED THE JEEP BACK ON THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THERE WAS DING WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOB POYNTER CHRYSLER LOCATED AT 1873 E TIPTON ST, SEYMOUR, IN 47274, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE DRIVER'S FRONTAL AIR BAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN REPAIRED AS OF 05/29/20. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF FAILURE AND A CASE WAS FILED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 7,000. *BF CONSUMER HAD A NEW ENGINE WITH 7,000 MILES ON IT, 184,000 MILES WAS ON THE CAR WHEN IT WAS PURCHASE. PASSENGER AIRBAG STILL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.*JB

TICKING NOISES WHEN VEHICLE IN MOTION FOR HIGHWAY DRIVING AND CITY DRIVING. LEFT CYLINDER HEAD CRACKS. *TR

I HAVE AN AIRBAG LIGHT ON MY DASH (SINCE 2016) WITH A CODE A DIAGNOSTIC FROM A CERTIFIED CHRYSLER DEALER STATING IT MATCHES THE RECALL FOR THIS VERY SAME PROBLEM (NEEDING THE CLOCK SPRING REPLACED BECAUSE OF DUST CONTAMINATION) HOWEVER THE VIN DOES NOT FALL WITHIN RANGE. I AM WORRIED THAT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, THE POORLY MADE COMPONENTS AND JEEP'S REFUSAL TO FIX THIS WILL RESULT IN UNNECESSARY INJURY.

OIL COOLER/OIL FILTER HOUSING AND GASKETS HAVE A KNOWN DEFECT THAT CAUSES OIL TO LEAK ONTO AND INTO ENGINE COMPONENTS, SUCH AS THE RADIATOR, CAUSING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. JEEP/CHRYSLER/DODGE/RAM TECHS KNOW THAT THIS IS A COMMON DEFECT, AND THE LEAKING OIL CAN AND DOES BURN, WHICH CAN LEAD TO A TOTAL ENGINE FIRE!!! I FIRST NOTICED THE ISSUE WHEN I SMELLED BURNING OIL. THINKING IT WAS JUST A MINOR ISSUE THAT COULD BE FIXED WHENEVER I HAD THE FREE TIME, I CONTINUED DRIVING FOR ANOTHER WEEK OR TWO UNTIL SMOKE STARTED COMING OUT OF THE ENGINE! I FINALLY TOOK IT IN BECAUSE THERE WAS WAY TOO MUCH SMOKE TO BE SAFE (FIRE?). THE TECH THAT WORKED ON MY JEEP, MIKE POLLARD, SAYS HE SEES THIS ISSUE ALL THE TIME, ADVISED ME TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS AND THEN FILE FOR REIMBURSEMENT WITH THEIR CORPORATE OFFICE SINCE IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND MY JEEP ONLY HAD 43,500 MILES ON IT (WELL UNDER THE 100,000 MILE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY). WELL, I DID AS HE ASKED, BUT CORPORATE CUSTOMER CARE IS USELESS, WILL NOT REACH OUT TO THE TECH AS ASKED, AND ARE DOING THEIR BEST TO NOT PAY BECAUSE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THERE IS NOT A RECALL. EITHER WAY, THIS ISSUE CAN START A FIRE IF LEFT UNFIXED. JEEP KNOWS THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE, YET WILL NOT DO A RECALL UNLESS FORCED (MONEY OVER SAFETY). LOOK ONLINE AT THE HUNDREDS OF OTHERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS COMMON ISSUE. HTTPS://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/JEEP/WRANGLER/2014/ENGINE-OIL-LEAKING-PROBLEMS.PHP HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/JEEP/WRANGLER/2014/ENGINE/OIL_HOUSING_LEAK.SHTML HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/JEEP/WRANGLER/2014/ENGINE/LEAKING_OIL.SHTML I HAVE EXHAUSTED TRYING TO GET THESE CHARGES REIMBURSED. THIS COST ME OVER $2000, AND MY VEHICLE ONLY HAD 43,500 MILES ON IT. WHAT'S WORSE, IS THAT THEY REPLACED IT WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART AS USUAL, SO NOW I HAVE TO WORRY THAT IT'LL JUST HAPPEN AGAIN SOON. PLEASE HELP!!!

THE JEEP WILL NOT START-STATIONARY. IT CRANKS OVER BUT DOES NOT START. THE JEEP IS EQUIPPED WITH A FAULTY TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE)

MY VEHICLE IS WELL MAINTAINED. OIL LEAKED ALL OVER THE ENGINE AND ONTO MY GARAGE FLOOR FROM A FAULTY ENGINE OIL COOLER & INTAKE GASKET SET. THIS WAS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR THAT I CAN'T AFFORD. MY MECHANIC (SMALL SHOP) FIXES THIS SAME REPAIR 2-3 TIMES A WEEK. THAT IS RIDICULOUS AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO REIMBURSE JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS THAT HAVE A HUGE OIL SPILLS TO CLEAN UP.

I HAVE RECEIVED TWO NOTICES ABOUT THIS AIRBAG RECALL. BOTH TIMES I CALLED THE SAME JEEP DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THEY HAD THE PART. THEY NEVER RETURNED A PHONE CALL EITHER TIME. TODAY, I CALLED A 2ND DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE FIXING THE RECALL IN A MATTER OF DAYS. THE FIRST DEALERSHIP THAT IS COMPLETELY ABDICATING THEIR RESPONSIBILITY IN REGARDS TO THIS RECALL IS JAKE SWEENEY CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM, 85 W KEMPER RD, CINCINNATI, OH 45246; (513) 782-1000

OIL LEAK ONTO TRANSMISSION; SOURCE IS FROM THE OIL FILTER ADAPTER HOUSING (PURSUANT TO CERTIFIED JEEP DEALERSHIP TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSIS). COST $1000 FOR REPAIR/REPLACE/FIX!

OIL ADAPTER HOUSING CRACKED FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 6 MONTHS. 1ST TIME CAUSED EXTERNAL LEAK AND IT WAS REPLACED.THIS TIME CRACKED AGAIN BUT INTERNALLY CAUSING OIL TO LEAK INTO COOLANT. CAUSED $3200 WORTH OF DAMAGE AND HAD TO HAVE COOLANT SYSTEM REPLACED AS WELL AS HEATER COIL AND HOSES. I KNOW OF 7 OTHER JEEP WRANGLERS THIS HAS HAPPENED TO RECENTLY.

FOR THE LAST TWO MONTHS, WHENEVER I ATTEMPT TO FILL MY CAR WITH GASOLINE, SHORTLY AFTER I BEGIN FUELING THE GAS COMES SPRAYING BACK AT ME. IN ORDER TO FILL MY TANK, I MUST BARELY SQUEEZE THE NOZZLE SUCH THAT THE GAS TRICKLES OUT. STILL IF I DON'T PERFECTLY STOP AND START AT THE RIGHT MOMENT IT WILL OVERFLOW. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE WHETHER I WAS DOING SOMETHING WRONG OR IF THERE WAS A RECALL, AND THEY INFORMED ME IT IS A KNOWN AND COMMON ISSUE BUT THERE IS NO RECALL. I WENT ONLINE AFTER TO CHECK THE WRANGLER FORUMS AND IT IS, IN FACT, A VERY COMMON COMPLAINT FOR WHICH THERE IS NO RECALL.

CRACKED "OIL FILTER HOUSING ADAPTER." CAUSING OIL TO LEAK ALL OVER THE BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE, COULD POTENTIALLY START A FIRE.

OIL COOLING FILTER HOUSING CRACKING/LEAKING ON 2014 MODEL WRANGLER JKU. EEP HAS A KNOWN EPIC FAILURE IS DESIGN FLAW IN ITS 2014 WRANGLER WHEN IT SWITCHED FROM A METAL OIL FILTER COOLER HOUSING TO A PLASTIC OIL FILTER COOLER HOUSING. HUNDREDS OF CASES OF THE PART BREAKING/LEAKING OIL ALL OVER LOWER ENGINE AND EXHAUST WHICH IS A FIRE HAZARD

GAS PEDAL GOT STUCK FULL THROTTLE, I WAS PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND HAD TO ACCELERATE SO I PUSHED THE PEDAL DOWN AND WHEN I LET OFF I STILL WAS ACCELERATING AND JUST AHEAD WAS STOP TRAFFIC MADE A HARD RIGHT INTO A PARKING LOT AND THROUGH THE SHIFTER INTO NEUTRAL. ALL THE TIME MY FOOT WAS HEAVY ON THE BRAKE JET STILL LAUNCHING FORWARD ... WHAT A HAIR RAISING EXPERIENCE AND THE WORST THING MY WIFE THOUGHT I WAS DOING THAT ON PURPOSE:)*DT *TP

NOTICED OIL ON THE GARAGE FLOOR IN JANUARY 2020. ENGINE IS LEAKING OIL FROM THE OIL COOLER THAT IS ON TOP ON THE ENGINE. COULD BE A FIRE HAZARD AS OIL DRAINS DOWN THE BACK OF THE ENGINE. VEHICLE HAS 86000 MILES ON IT BUT HAS BEEN LEAKING FOR A WHILE. NOW IT IS LEAKING VERY BAD AND CAN SMELL BURNT OIL WHEN DRIVING. LOOKING ON FORUMS ONLINE AND MANY 2014 TO 2016 3.6 ENGINES HAVE THIS ISSUE. ISSUE SEAMS TO BE FROM FAULTY GASKETS AND IN SOME CASES CRACKED HOUSINGS ON THE OIL COOLER. MINE IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY. I THOUGHT IT WAS FROM THE OIL PAN GASKET AT FIRST, BUT WHEN I STARTED TO SMELL OIL BURNING, I STARTED LOOKING CLOSER AT IT AND FOUND OIL LAYING IN THE VALLEY ON TOP OF THE ENGINE.

DEATH WOBBLE

MY OIL FILTER COVER CRACKED AND IS CAUSING OIL TO LEAK DOWN ONTO MY TRANSMISSION

THERE HAS BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ON A REAR MAIN SEAL LEAK. MY VEHICLE IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO 150K MILES ITS BARELY AT 90K AND ALREADY HAVING A LEAK ISSUE. I WAS READING ONLINE THAT CERTAIN JEEPS RIGHT AT 16K WERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS COSTLY AND IT IS EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE THAT MY VEHICLE GOES FROM BEING GOOD TO DRIVE TO HEY NOW YOU HAVE A REAR MAIN SEAL LEAK AND IT WILL COST YOU AROUND 850 PLUS DOLLARS. IT LEAKED OIL IN MY DRIVEWAY AND NOW I HAVE TO PAY SOMEONE TO CLEAR THAT UP.

JEEP STARTED LEAKING OIL AT 57000 MILES OIL LEAK WAS DUE TO A KNOWN PART FAILURE THE OIL HOUSING WHICH IS PLASTIC AND CAN EASILY CRACK. VEHICLE HAS ONLY BEEN SERVICED AT DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS BOUGHT. OIL HOUSING LOCATED UNDER MANIFOLD, OIL LEAK CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE A FIRE WHEN IT SPLATTERS ON MANIFOLD. JEEP KNOWS THIS PART CAN FAIL AT ANY TIME.

OIL COOLER FAILED AND CAUSED COMPLETE DISSPURSMENT OF OIL WHILE DRIVING. OIL LEAKED ALL OVER THE UNDERSIDE AND REAR OF VEHICLE. THIS COULD CASUE AN ACCIDENT OR FIRE IN THE ENGINE BAY. REPLACED IN OCTOBER 2019. WORKED TILL FEB 2020 NOW IT IS LOEAKING AND THE RESERVOIR FOR OIL COOLER IS SHOWING POOLING... AGAIN. THIS PART IS MADE OF CHEAP NON HEAT MANAGABLE MATERIALS. IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. THIS REPLACEMENT IS NOT CHEAP OR AN EASY TASK.

EACH DOOR HAS A LEAK. EVERY TIME IT RAINS WATER ENTERS THE JEEP. I DON'T KNOW IF THE SEALS ARE DEFECTIVE BUT ALL FOUR DOORS SEALS NEED TO BE REPLACED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHENEVER THERE WAS DOWN POUR, WATER WOULD ENTER THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HIS FOOT SLID OFF OF THE BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR PEDAL DUE TO THE WET CARPET. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ALBERIC CHRYSLER DEALER, (551 MARGINAL JR, SAN JUAN, PR 00920, (787) 793-2223) BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED DUE TO THE DIAGNOSTIC AND REPAIR FEES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 59,104.

OIL FILTER ADAPTER COOLER ON TOP OF THE ENGINE, LEAKING, FILLING THE VALLEY WITH 2 INCHES OF OIL IN SOME PLACES. COULD CAUSE FIRE AND OIL SPILLING OVER THE EXHAUST. OIL RUNS DOWN THE BELL HOUSING DOWN THE TRANSMISSION AND ACROSS THE CROSSMEMBER. WHEN YOU STOP YOU CAN SMELL BITING OIL, DUE TO THIS ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE PARKED THE CONTACT DETECTED OIL LEAKING FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO STATED THE OIL COOLER FILTER HOUSING NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO OURISMAN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM 12430 AUTO DR, CLARKSVILLE, MD 21029 (410) 988-8100 WHERE DIAGNOSED THE OIL COOLER FILTER HOUSING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED BUT WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED BUT NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,000.

SAME AS ALOT OF OTHER PEOPLE'S COMPLAINTS AND I'M VERY SHOCKED THAT THERE IS NOT A RECALL FOR AN ISSUE THAT IS SUCH AN ON GOING PROBLEM, MY OIL COOLER IS LEAKING ONCE AGAIN ON MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER JK AND I'VE ALREADY SPENT HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND NOW GOING THROUGH THIS ONCE AGAIN IT IS STRAIGHT BULL CRAP. I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND CAME TO A STOP LIGHT AND NOTICED A TON OF WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH MY HOOD AND I THOUGH NO WAY NOT AGAIN BUT TO MY SURPRISE I WAS RIGHT OIL WAS SITTING IN THE VALLEY RIGHT UNDERNEATH THE BLACK OIL RESERVOIR. THE DATE BELOW IS WHEN I NOTICES IT FOR THE 2ND TIME...1/15/2020

THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND IT DECODES TO A CYLINDER MISFIRE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID THE CYLINDER HAD LOW COMPRESSION. IT IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME WELL OVER $2000 TO FIX IT. I AM REPORTING THIS BECAUSE I FOUND OUT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THESE ENGINES, SO MUCH SO THAT CHRYSLER ISSUED A TSB ON IT, HOWEVER THE TSB ONLY COVERS UP TO 2013 AND MINE IS A 2014. APPARENTLY THEY THOUGHT THEY FIXED IT, BUT PERHAPS THEY DIDN'T GET IT QUITE RIGHT, OR DIDN'T COVER ENOUGH YEARS. SEE CHRYSLER JEEP TSB 09-002-14 FOR REFERENCE. PLEASE NOTE WHILE THIS ISSUE DID NOT CAUSE AN IMMEDIATE SAFETY CONCERN, MY RESEARCH INDICATES THAT NOT FIXING IT PROMPTLY WILL CAUSE UN-BURNT FUEL TO PASS THROUGH THE ENGINE WHICH IS LIKELY TO CAUSE CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILURE. DUE TO THE EXTREME EXPENSE TO FIX THIS KNOWN ISSUE, PEOPLE WILL BE UNWILLING OR UNABLE TO PAY TO GET IT FIXED RIGHT AWAY, AND THAT IN TURN COULD LEAD TO VARIOUS SAFETY RISKS, NOT TO MENTION POLLUTION CONTROLS ISSUES.

WHILE DRIVING I OBSERVED SMOKE WAS COMING OUT FROM MY VEHICLE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WITH THE ODOR OF BURNING OIL. I WAS JUST AROUND THE CORNER FROM MY HOUSE SO AS I PULLED INTO MY DRIVEWAY I LOOKED UNDER MY VEHICLE AND NOTICED OIL DRIPPING FROM UNDER THE ENGINE ON TO THE EXHAUST PIPE. I AM AWARE THAT 2014 JEEP WRANGLERS HAVE A PROBLEM WITH THE OIL FILTER HOUSING CRACKING OVER TIME. I OPENED MY HOOD AND LOOKED AT THE OIL FILTER HOUSING AND THERE WAS OIL ALL OVER THE TOP OF THE MOTOR. I WENT TO MY LOCAL JEEP DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THIS YEAR WRANGLER HAS A BIG PROBLEM WITH THIS AND THAT THERE IS NO RECALL. I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW A SAFETY ISSUE LIKE THIS THAT MOPAR HAS NOT BEEN CALLED ON THE CARPET FOR A FIRE HAZARD LIKE THIS AND THAT THEY ARE AWARE OF THE PREMATURE FAILURE OF THIS PART. I WAS TOLD THE REPAIR WOULD BE ROUGHLY $600. COULD YOU HELP ME RESOLVE THIS ISSUE AND WHAT APPROPRIATE ACTION I CAN TAKE. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 35,000 MILES ON IT. NOT TO MENTION MY DRIVEWAY IS A MESS :(

I OWN A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER JK WITH 47800 MILES. THE ENGINE OIL COOLER HAS FAILED AND COVERED DRIVEWAY WITH OIL. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT THEY CHOOSE NOT TO FIX. DO NOT BUY THIS VEHICLE

OIL COOLER HAD A MAJOR LEAK OIL ON TOP OF ENGINE WAS EASILY A QUART. REST OF THE OIL HAD TRAVELED DOWN THE TRANSMISSION AND COVERED ALMOST THE ENTIRETY OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND EXHAUST. I NOTICED THE LEAK BY A STRONG SMOKEY OIL ODOR AS THE OIL HIT THE EXHAUST. THE OIL COOLER WAS REPLACED AND MUST HAVE ALSO CAUSED A LEAK IN THE COOLANT BECAUSE THE RESERVOIR WAS NEAR EMPTY. WAITING TO SEE IF THAT WAS THE CAUSE OF THE COOLANT LEAK.

MY STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS ARE NO LONGER WORKING. THIS INCLUDES THE HORN, CHANNEL AND VOLUME CONTROL. THEY WILL WORK WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED 45DEG FROM TOP DEAD CENTER. MY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS ISSUE IS CAUSED BY THE "CLOCK" SPRING ASSEMBLY BEHIND THE AIR BAG. JEEP CURRENTLY HAS A RECALL OUT FOR RHD WRANGLERS AND THEIR CLOCK SPRING ASSEMBLY. I BELIEVE THERE ARE ALSO ISSUES WITH THE LHD (LEFT HAND DRIVE) MODELS AS WELL. I AM TAKING THIS TO THE DEALER IN THE MORNING. NOTE THE PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION OR NOT.

HI I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND THE ACCELERATED GOT STUCK WHILE DRIVING FOR A FEW SECONDS . I APPLIED THE BREAK BUT ACCELERATED KEPT ON GIVING THE ENGINE GAS WHEN I RELEASE THE BREAK THE CAR WOULD ACCELERATE FORWARD AND FINALLY AFTER ABOUT 10SECONDS THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED WENT BACK TO NORMAL . THERE WAS A LIGHTING VOLT THAT CAME ON ON THE DASHBOARD AS A ISSUE AND THE LIGHT DISAPPEARED WHEN THE ACCELERATION PETAL CAME BACK UP .

THE OIL FILTER/COOLER HOUSING IS KNOWN TO LEAK ALLOWING OIL TO RUN DOWN ENGINE ONTO EXHAUST CAUSING A FIRE HAZARD.

ON 3 OF THE 4 WHEELS, THE OEM CALIBER MOUNTAIN BOLTS BACK OUT OF THE CALIBERS. SUBSEQUENTLY CAUSING THE CALIBERS TO COME OFF OF THE ROTOR AND WEDGE INSIDE OF THE WHEELS DESTROYING THE WHEELS AND CAUSING DANGEROUS FLAT TIRES WHILE DRIVING

I RECENTLY HAD A CHANGE OIL INDICATOR GO OFF, EARLIER THAN ANTICIPATED. WHILE PERFORMING THE OIL CHANGE, I REALIZED THERE WAS OIL ALL OVER THE BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY ON THE BOTTOM OF THE TRANSMISSION. I CLEANED UP AND PERFORMED THE OIL CHANGE. TWO DAYS LATER THE SAME THING. FRESH OIL EVERYWHERE. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH AND A TRIP TO THE DEALER, THE CONCLUSION WAS A BAD OIL FILTER ADAPTER ASSEMBLY. THIS IS BEYOND COMMON ON A 2014 WRANGLER. INSANE THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON THIS PART. COME ON JEEP, GET IT TOGETHER AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. I LOVE MY JEEP. BUT RIGHT IS RIGHT. THIS IS BEYOND A BIG FIRE CONCERN!!!!

OIL COOLER / FILTER HOUSING IS LEAKING OIL DOWN TRANSMISSION AN ONTO THE EXHAUST. CAUSED SMOKE AND NAUSEOUS FUMES TO ENTER THE CABIN. FIRE HAZARD!!!! NOTICED THE FUMES WHILE DRIVING. INSPECTED THE UNDERCARRIAGE A FOUND OIL LEAKING DOWN TRANSMISSION ONTO THE EXHAUST. INSPECTED ENGINE BAY AND FOUND THE OIL POOLING AROUND THE OIL FILTER/COOLER HOUSING.

NO OIL PRESSURE AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON,NOISE FROM THE ENGINE LIFTERS KNOCKING NOW THE DEALER SHOWS ME DIRT ON THE INTAKE MANIFOLD COVER AND THAT IS WAY THE ENGINE SEIZED. THE OIL SENSOR NOT WORKING I SAID.

MY OIL COOLER WENT OUT AT 40,000 MILES WHICH I BELIEVE CAUSED MY HEAD GASKET TO BLOW.

TICKING NOISE FROM THE ENGINE ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES. THE NOISE BECOMES LOUDER WHEN THE ENGINE GETS WARM, ESPECIALLY WHEN IT IS CLOSE TO A WALL OR OTHER VEHICLES. DIAGNOSTIC FROM DEALERSHIP SAYS IT IS DUE TO ROCKER ARM FAILURES.

THERE IS OIL LEAKING FROM UNDER MY JEEP AND A BURNING SMELL THAT SMELLS LIKE BURNT TIRES. I WAS TOLD IT COULD BE THE OIL HOUSING LEAKING. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND VERY DANGEROUS.

OIL LEAKING FROM THE OIL COOLER. I NOTICED OIL ON THE TRANSMISSION AND UPON FURTHER INVESTIGATION I FOUND THE LEAK COMING FROM THE OIL COOLER BELOW THE OIL FILTER HOUSING. VEHICLE HAS 56,000 MILES ON IT

THE ENGINE OIL COOLER ASSEMBLY IS LEAKING A LARGE AMOUNT OF OIL INTO THE "V" OF THE ENGINE AND DRIPPING ON TO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLDS. THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED FOR OVER A WEEK AND UPON DRIVING SMOKE WITH THE SMELL OF BURNING OIL FILLED THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT. TO THE EXTENT THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE PULLED OVER AND INSPECTED FOR FIRE AND DAMAGE. IT WAS NOTED THAT THE TRANSMISSION, FRAME RAILS, AND EXHAUST PIPES WERE COVERED IN OIL AND THE VEHICLE WAS APPROXIMATELY 2.5 QUARTS LOW ON OIL. NO PRIOR SIGNS OF AN OIL LEAK WERE PRESENT BEFORE THE SMOKE AND BURN OIL SMELL WAS NOTICED DURING NORMAL USE OF THE VEHICLE.

OIL FILTER HOUSING IS LEAKING, CAUSING COPIOUS AMOUNTS OF ENGINE OIL TO LEAK OVER THE ENGINE AND TRANSMISSION AND DROPPING DOWN ON TO ENGINE EXHAUST CAUSING IT SMOKE AND EMIT NOXIOUS FUMES INTO THE VEHICLE CABIN. POTENTIAL FOR FIRE IS EXTREMELY HIGH, I HAD TO PULL OVER AND EXIT VEHICLE DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF SMOKE COMING INTO THE CABIN FROM THE UNDERNEATH. UPON INVESTIGATING I INITIALLY THOUGHT MY TRANSMISSION HAD BLOWN A LINE BECAUSE OF HOW MUCH OIL WAS COATING THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF THE JEEP.

WHILE DRIVING NOTICED AN OIL BURNING SMELL, GOT HOME AND LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD AND FOUND A POOL OF ENGINE OIL. FOUND OUT FROM OWNER OF THE SAME CAR THAT A BROKEN OIL COOLER ASSEMBLY. THIS COULD HAVE CAUSE THE CAR TO BURN- VERY DANGEROUS INDEED. HAPPENS IN LOTS OF CHRYSLER'S VEHICLES

ANOTHER 2014 JEEP WRANGLER OWNER WITH A CRACKED OIL FILTER HOUSING/COOLING ASSEMBLY. OIL IS SPILLING OUT ALL OVER EXHAUST. CERTAINLY A FIRE HAZARD. WITH AS MANY COMPLAINTS WITH THIS PARTICULAR PART THAT I HAVE SEEN ALL OVER JEEP FORMING AND ON THE NHTSA SITE I AM SURPRISED THAT CHRYSLER HAS NOT TAKEN ANY ACTION BUT IS LEAVING THIS TO THEIR OWNERS TO RECTIFY.

THE OIL FILTER HOUSING ADAPTOR IS DEFECTIVE. IT IS PLASTIC AND WHEN IT CRACKS IT DUMPS OIL DIRECTLY ONTO THE EXHAUST, WHICH CAN CAUSE A FIRE

MASSIVE OIL LEAK AT THE OIL COOLER HOUSING. (2 QUARTS PER DAY). LEAKING ON THE TOP OF THE MOTOR AND LEAKING DOWN THE BACK PASSENGER SIDE ENGINE DIRECTLY OVER THE HOT EXHAUST MANIFOLD. LEAK OCCURS AT ALL RPM RANGES AND LEAVES MASSIVE PUDDLES OF OIL EVERYWHERE I GO WHICH IS NOT GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. AND PRESENTS A FIRE HAZARD IF STUCK IN TRAFFIC AND ENGINE TEMPS RISE ENOUGH TO CAUSE IGNITION OF LEAKING OIL OVER A HOT EXHAUST MANIFOLD.

THE OIL FILTER HOUSING ADAPTOR IS DEFECTIVE. IT IS PLASTIC AND WHEN IT CRACKS IT DUMPS OIL DIRECTLY ONTO THE EXHAUST, WHICH CAN CAUSE A FIRE.

OIL FILTER ADAPTER HOUSING CRACKED DUE TO COLD WEATHER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE WAS LEAKING OIL THAT PRODUCED A BURNING ODOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENGINE OIL LEAKED ONTO THE TRANSMISSION HOUSING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS ALSO EVIDENCE OF AN OIL LEAK ON THE GROUND UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO JEEP CHRYSLER DODGE RAM FIAT OF ONTARIO (1202 AUTO CENTER DR, ONTARIO, CA 91761, (909) 906-7097) TO BE DIAGNOSED, WHICH WAS STILL PENDING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,334.

CRACKED OIL FILTER HOUSING, PICTURES SHOW LEAKS ON THE GROUND AND CROSS MEMBER, CAME OUT TO THE LEAKS THIS MORNING.

FAILED OIL FILTER HOUSING AT 46,000 MILES. CATASTROPHIC FAILURE LEADING TO THE ENGINE BEING DRAINED OF ALL OIL WHILE BEING DRIVEN LESS THAN 7 MILES.

SEEN OIL SPOTS ON MY DRIVEWAY SO I TOOK MY JEEP TO A DEALER WHERE A POND INVESTIGATING THEY FOUND THAT THE ENGINE OIL ADAPTER WAS LEAKING. THERE IS 51,668 MILES ON IT

THE OIL COOLER ASSEMBLY CRACKED CAUSING OIL TO GO ALL OVER THE MOTOR AND TRANSMISSION. IT'S AROUND 800.00+ TO REPLACE THIS PLASTIC PART AND IT'S A VERY VERY COMMON PROBLEM IN THE 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL? I LITERALLY STARTED IT AND LET IT IDLE FOR 10 MINUTES BEFORE LEAVING FOR WORK AND IT DONE THIS IN MY CARPORT. OIL WAS EVERYWHERE.

2014 WRANGLER, LESS THAN 60,000 MILES, OIL FILTER HOUSING CRACKED. LEAKS A TON OF OIL NOW, SPLASHED IN THE EXHAUST, STINKS, AND COULD POSSIBLE START A FIRE. FOR SOME REASON THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR THIS PARTICULAR YEAR AND MODEL BUT THERE ISN'T A RECALL 🤔

OIL COOLER LEAKING

CLOCK SPRING DRIVER SIDE IS WHAT ERROR CODE READ RECALL ON PASSENGER SIDE FIXED. NOW READING DRIVERS SIDE CLOCK SPRING

PARKING BRAKE FAILED CAUSING VEHICLE TO ROLL WHILE SOMEONE WAS WORKING UNDER THE VEHICLE. DEALER IS UNABLE TO ADJUST PARKING BRAKE TO REMOVE SLACK IN PARKING CABLES AND FCA IS UNWILLING TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE PARKING BRAKE LEVER THAT HAS A FAILED TENSIONING SPRING.

THE OIL COOLER BROKE AND IS LEAKING OIL ALL OVER MY ENGINE, TRANSFER CASE AND EXHAUST. JEEP SAYS IT'S COMMON AND THEY EXPECT ME TO PAY $850 OUT OF MY POCKET FOR A PLASTIC PART THAT WILL FAIL AGAIN. SHAME ON THEM. IT WAS SITTING IN MY GARAGE AND OIL IS EVERYWHERE ON THE GROUND. IT'S TOO DANGEROUS TO DRIVE

TRANSMISSION LEAKING OIL ONTO EXHAUST PIPE WHILE DRIVING. JUST STARTED 2 DAYS AGO. LEAKED APPROXIMATELY 1 PINT IN 30 MILES TRAVEL ON HIGHWAY. UNDER SIDE OF VEHICLE COVERED WITH OIL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER, PASSENGER, AND CENTER VENTS WERE DISTRIBUTING COLD AIR AND THE ANTI-FREEZE WAS DEPLETED WITHIN A WEEK. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT NOTICED OIL SPOTS ON THE DRIVEWAY FLOOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DETERMINED THAT THE OIL COOLER FILTER HOUSING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 141,871.

2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARD TO GEAR STICK MOVING/SLIPPING WHILE ENGINE IS RUNNING. *AS THE CONSUMER STATED THE FAILURE OCCURS ON A DAILY BASIS. THE WARRANTY COMPANY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE SO, WAS UNABLE TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. *JS

APPROXIMATELY 8 MONTHS AGO, I HAD MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH MY JKU SHIFTING INCORRECTLY WHILE GOING UP & DOWN THE STREETS WHICH I LIVE ON IN KAILUA KONA, HAWAII. I LIVE ON A VOLCANO & THUS THE STREETS ARE AT A GREAT DEGREE, UP TO 25% GRADE. MY FIRST EXPERIENCE WITH THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTING ON ITS OWN WAS COMING UP A STREET WHERE I DOWNSHIFTED TO 2ND GEAR....THE JEEP THEN SHIFTED INTO 1ST ON ITS OWN AND THEN UPSHIFTED TO 3RD, THEN DOWN TO 2ND & THEN TO 1ST, ALL ON ITS OWN. I THEN CAME TO A STOP SIGN & PUT IT BACK INTO DRIVE FOR AUTOMATIC HOPING THAT IT WOULD STOP. FOR ABOUT 2-3 WEEKS AFTER THAT, IT SEEMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE & THEN NOTHING. IT DROVE FINE. I NEVER TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FROM THAT ONE OR TWO INSTANCES. ON 8/5/19 I TOOK MY JEEP IN FOR A REGULAR OIL CHANGE. KONA KWIK LUBE LOOKED AT EVERYTHING & SAID THAT EVERYTHING ON THE JKU LOOKED GREAT. I THEN HAD TO LEAVE TOWN FOR A WEEK & UPON RETURN FROM THE MAINLAND, I HAD NUMEROUS DROPS (OF WHAT I THOUGHT WAS OIL) ON THE FLOOR OF MY CARPORT. I TOOK MY JEEP TO REPAIR SHOP FOR DIAGNOSTIC & WAS TOLD THAT THEY SAW SIGNS OF OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL FILTER HOUSING, BUT WERE UNABLE TO PINPOINT LOCATION OF LEAK. AS I KNEW THE MANAGER OF KKL, I TOOK IT BACK THERE. THEY CLEANED UP THE AREA & STATED THAT IT WAS NOT OIL LEAK. UPON RETURNING HOME, I HAD NO LEAKS COMING FROM THE JEEP FOR 2 WEEKS.THEN THE LEAKS STARTED. I WENT BACK TO KKL ON 10/9/19 WHERE THEY PUT DYE IN THE ENGINE TO FIND THE LEAK. ON 10/14/19 THEY SAW NO DYE IN THE ENGINE, THEREBY NOTING THAT IT WAS TRANSMISSION. I WENT TO TRANSMISSION TECHNOLOGY RIGHT AFTER, & I WAS ADVISED THAT I HAD A GERMAN TRANSMISSION & THE TRANSMISSION PUMP, SEALS, ETC. WERE ALL LEAKING & IT WOULD BE OVER $2,000 TO FIX THE TRANSMISSION. I ONLY HAVE 37,933 MILES ON THIS 2014 JKU. AT 38,000 MILES, THIS TRANSMISSION SHOULD NOT BE LEAKING. JEEP DECLINED COVER. *TR*JB

MANY SERVICE LIGHTS RELATED TO EVAPORATION LEAK, DEALER KEPT RESETTING, AND REPLACED GAS CAP AND PAID FOR COUNTLESS CHECKS EACH TIME THE SERVICE LIGHT CAME ON OVER THE COURSE OF A YEAR. FINALLY DISCOVERED FUEL WAS LEAKING OUT OF THE TANK, AND AS A RESULT I HAD TO REPLACE MY FUEL TANK, FUEL FILLER HOSE, FUEL TRANSFER TUBE, FUEL VAPOR TUBE, FUEL CANISTER PURGE, AND FUEL SUPPLY TUBE AT A HIGH COST. WHEN SPEAKING TO THE DEALER GIVEN THE CAR IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD, THEY INDICATED THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEP WRANGLERS AND THAT IN THAT WEEK ALONE THEY HAD DONE 4 OR 5 FUEL TANK REPLACEMENTS. DURING ALL OF THIS MY VEHICLE WAS UNDRIVEABLE FOR 2 MONTHS.

ENGINE COOLANT AND OIL SPRAYED THE UNDERSIDE OF THE JEEP STARTED SMOKING PAID TO HAVE IT FIXED THEN 4 MONTHS LATER THE COOLANT IS STARTING TO LEAK AGAIN. WAS TOLD THE PARTS ARE CHEAPLY MADE AND I AM BETTER OFF DITCHING THIS JEEP BEFORE IT CATCHES FIRE.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT JUST CAME ON IN MY 2014 JEEP JK. AFTER DILIGENT RESEARCH ONLINE, AND WITH THE MECHANICAL KNOWLEDGE I HAVE. I HAVE FOUND THAT IT IS DUE TO THE FAILURE OF THE CLOCK SPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL. AFTER RESEARCHING FURTHER, I FOUND IN NUMEROUS THREADS, POST, BLOGS, AND FORUMS, THAT THIS IS A WIDESPREAD ISSUE WITH ALL JEEP JK'S. A RECALL WAS ISSUED FOR THE 07 AND 08 JK'S, AND ALSO FOR THE NEWER MODEL RIGHT HAND DRIVE JK'S. HOWEVER, THIS ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESSED IN THE 09 THROUGH 18 JK'S. THIS CAN CAUSE SAFETY ISSUES WITH THE AIRBAGS, AND BELIEVE JEEP SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL FOR THESE LATTER YEAR JK'S AS WELL. THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING BACK HOME FROM ACROSS TOWN. AT FIRST WITH THE LIGHT AND CHIME COMING ON INTERMITTENTLY. THEN FINALLY THE LIGHT STAYED ON. I HAVE NOT BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO DIAGNOSE THIS AS I BELIEVE I HAVE DONE SO ON MY OWN. THIS IS A QUITE EXPENSIVE FIX FOR A SAFETY ISSUE THAT I DON'T BELIEVE JEEP BUYERS SHOULD HAVE TO PAY.

AIR BAG LIGHT ON, SHOP SAYS THE CLOCK SPRING GOES BAD FAIR OFTEN IN JEEPS. STILL DRIVING IT WITHOUT THE NEEDED REPAIRS. DEALER SAYS RECALL ON MINE WAS FOR THE PASSENGER AIRBAGS AND EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE HAD JEEP RECALLS REGARDING THE CLOCK SPRING, MY JEEP IS NOT SHOWING UP UNDER THAT RECALL.

HORN PROBLEM - HORN APPEARS TO RUN OFF A RELAY, SO WHEN HORN IS DEPRESSED IT TAKES .5-1 SECOND FOR A IT TO SOUND. A REAL SAFETY CONCERN IF SOMEONE IS QUICKLY MERGING INTO MY LANE AND I CAN'T WARN THEM THAT I AM THERE - WHICH HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES NOW.

DEALER SAYS I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE RECALLS OUT ON THE JEEP WRANGLER I OWN. ONE IS FOR THE CLOCK SPRING RECALL WHICH I NEVER RECEIVED. NOW THERE IS ANOTHER RECALL ON THE AIRBAGS. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY TO GET THESE FIXED.

OIL COOLER/FILTER POOLS OUT OIL BECAUSE OF PLASTIC HOUSING. THIS WEARS, CRACKS DURING ROUTINE OIL CHANGES. THE OIL POOLS AND DRIPS ALL OVER TRANSMISSION HOUSING, UNDER SKID PLATES AND YOU SIMPLY LOSE ALL OF YOUR OIL. NO A GOOD DESIGN, SIMPLY LAZY BY CHRYSLER.

COOLENT ELBOW WITH THERMOSTAT TENDS TO DEVELOP A SMALL LEAK , LEAKING COULD RESULT IN A ENGIN SEIZURE OR BEING STRANDED ON HIGHWAY/OFF ROAD NOT SIRE IF THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE OR ISOLATED

ALL BUTTONS EXCEPT CRUISE CONTROL ON THE STEERING WHEEL HAVE QUIT WORKING. THE HORN WON'T WORK EITHER. WHEN IT QUIT WORKING THE VOLUME BUTTONS STARTED ACTING UP THEN IT ALL JUST QUIT AT ONCE. I'M SURE IF ALL THAT HAS STOPPED WORKING THEN THE AIR BAG WON'T EITHER. I BELIEVE IT'S THE CLOCK SPRING CAUSING ALL THIS CHAOS.

DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY ALL DASH LIGHTS FLASH ON INCLUDING TRACTION LIGHT AND ABS AND FEELS LIKE MY BRAKES ARE PUMPING EVEN WHEN I DID NOT TOUCH THE BRAKES WITH DINGING SOUND RADIO SHUTS OFF, HORN DOES NOT WORK OR THE BUTTONS ON THE STEERING WHEEL TO WORK THE RADIO. VERY DANGEROUS ESP WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY.

EARLY MAY 2019 MY JEEP'S STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS STARTED MALFUNCTIONING AND NOW COMPLETELY NOT WORKING. THE HORN STOPPED WORKING, RADIO AND HANDS FREE CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. I CAN NOT USE MY DASH SCREEN AT ALL AND IT'S JUST SHOWING '- - '. I COULD NOT USE MY HORN ON MAY10TH AND WAS CUT OFF AND AS A RESULT WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. THE FRONT END WAS SIGNIFICANTLY DAMAGED AND THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY AND I BUSTED MY FACE ON THE STEERING WHEEL AND HIT HEAD ON WINDSHIELD. DIAGNOSTIC SCAN SAID THERE WAS 0 CODES PRIOR TO ACCIDENT AND THAT TRIGGERED ME TO DO RESEARCH ON THE CLOCK SPRING RECALL BUT MY VIN IS NOT UNDER IT???

WHEN I AM ON THE HIGHWAY AND I'M GOING AT FASTER SPEED THEN ON THE CITY STREET THERE IS A WOBBLE AND MY TRUCK FEELS AS IF IT IS GOING TO FLIP OVER OR SOMETHING. ALSO WHEN I AM ON THE CITY STREETS AND DRIVE OVER AND UNEVEN PAVEMENT I GET THE SAME WOBBLE OR SOMETIMES IT FEELS AS IF MY TRUCK IS BEING LIFTED OFF THE GROUND.

2014 RIGHT HAND DRIVE JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SPORT WITH 139,571 MILES. WHILE DRIVING FOUND STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS WOULD NOT WORK MAY 2019. DEALER FOUND CODE SAYING COCKSPRING HAS ELECTRICAL FAILURE. ITEM WAS REPLACED FOR THE 2ND TIME - LAST BEING AT 73,416 MILE UNDER A SAFETY RECALL S40 IN 2016. STILL USING THE SAME - NOT IMPROVED JEEP/CHRYSLER- PART WHICH COST ME $622.74 TO REPLACE WHICH LASTED 66,155 MILES BETWEEN REPLACEMENTS. THIS DEFECTIVE PART AFFECTS AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT. NO IMPROVEMENT IN RECALLED PART BY JEEP/CHRYSLER ????????? EVEN THOUGH IT IS A DEFECTIVE PART. THEY USE THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART TO REPLACE ONE THAT HAS AN ELECTRICAL FAILURE.

ADD ME TO THE LONG LIST OF PEOPLE WITH ENGINE OIL LEAKING FROM THE OIL FILTER/COOLER

HOOD LATCHES WOULD FLEX SO BAD THE HOOD WOULD FLUTTER AND ACT AS THOUGH IT WAS FIXING TO FLY UP EVERY TIME A HEAVY GUSTY WIND OR A LARGE VEHICLE WOULD ME ME COMING IN ON COMING TOWARDS ME.

TAKATA RECALL - TRYING TO GET A RECALL OF AIRBAG ISSUE TAKEN CARE OF AT DEALER AND AM TOLD TO KEEP CALLING THEY ARE NOT SURE WHEN THEY WILL GET PARTS. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS RECALL OF PASSENGER AIRBAG AND HAS BEEN SINCE JANUARY. MY SON HAS TO TRAVEL 800 MILES AUGUST 10TH AND NOW FEEL EXTREMELY UNSAFE. FYI... I RECEIVED LETTER FROM DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLE IN NYS TO NOTIFY US, NOT FROM MANUFACTURER.

PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT. *BF CONSUMER STATED REPAIR DONE.*JB

WINDY DAY ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY HOOD WAS FLUTTERING SO BAD THAT I HAD TO GET OFF THE HIGH WAY FOR THE FEAR OF MY LIFE. ONE OF THE LATCHES CAME UN DONE DURRING THAT TIME AND FEARED MY HOOD WOULD FLIP OPEN AND BLOCK MY WINDAHIELD

WHEN I GET ON THE HIGHWAY AND DRIVE OVER 60 MPH THE HOOD WILL FLUTTER MASSIVELY LIKE IT'S GOING TO FLY UP AND SLAM INTO MY WINDSHIELD. I'VE HEARD THAT THE MATCHES ARE GIVING OUT FROM THE FACTORIES AND HAVE HEARD LOTS OF STORIES OF THEM BREAKING.

FOR 2014, CHRYSLER MADE A CHANGE TO A PART CALLED THE "OIL FILTER ADAPTER" WHICH SITS ON TOP OF THE ENGINE, UNDER THE INTAKE MANIFOLD. THERE ARE NOW A PARADE OF PEOPLE WITH VARIOUS CHRYSLER VEHICLES THAT USE THE 3.6L REPORTING THAT THE NEW PART CRACKS, CAUSING A MAJOR OIL LEAK, POTENTIALLY A FIRE, AND CAN CAUSE YOUR ENGINE TO BE DRAINED OF ALL OIL. PART NUMBER IS 68105583AA AND IT APPLIES ONLY TO 3.6L CHRYSLER V6 ENGINES. I PURCHASED THE JEEP USED AND NOW HAVE JUST OVER 60K MILES - CHRYSLER IS REFUSING TO COVER UNDER THEIR "100K MILE" POWERTRAIN WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT AND I STILL HAVE ALMOST 40K MILES TO GO BEFORE I REACH 100K MILES.

VEHICLE FAILED TO STOP WHEN BRAKE WAS APPLIED AT INTERSECTION. BRAKE PEDAL WAS DOWN AT FLOOR AND IT FELT AS THOUGH THE ABS WAS KICKING ON, ALSO THE STEERING WAS AFFECTED. NOTE: BRAKE INSPECTION WAS DONE AT BILL MARSH DEALERSHIP IN KALKASKA,MI 10 DAYS PRIOR TO INCIDENT AND BRAKES SUPPOSEDLY WERE OK

DOOR HINGES ARE RUSTING FROM UNDERNEATH THE PAINT. "AT THE START OF THE 2007 MODEL YEAR, JEEP STARTED USING ALUMINUM HINGES THAT CARRY A SECRET; A FLAW IN THE WAY THAT THE ALUMINUM IS ANODIZED CAUSES OXIDATION UNDER THE PAINT, EVEN WITH THE ABSENCE OF AIR AND WATER.WHAT YOU ESSENTIALLY HAVE IS A VEHICLE WITH HINGES THAT ARE SUBPAR."

AIRBAG RECALL: I'VE HAD AN AIRBAG LIGHT ON FOR OVER A YEAR NOW BUT NO ACTIVE RECALL WAS OUT FOR MY VIN AT THE TIME I CHECKED WITH THE DEALER ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. RECENTLY, THE ENGINE LIGHT CONTINUED TO COME ON WITH A FAULT CODE FOR THE AIRBAG. THE VEHICLE WAS BROUGHT TO THE LARRY H MILLER DODGE LOCATED AT 4220 E 22ND ST, TUCSON, AZ 85711 TO HAVE THE PROBLEM RESOLVED. AFTER WRITING UP A WORK ORDER FOR ENGINE DIAGNOSTICS I RECEIVED A PHONE CALL STATING I WOULD NEED A CLOCKSPRING TO RECTIFY THE AIRBAG PROBLEM. AT THIS TIME I INFORMED THEM THAT THERE WAS AN ACTIVE SAFETY RECALL FOR THE VEHICLE, WHICH THEY WERE UNAWARE OF DESPITE HAVING PRINTED THE INFORMATION WHEN THEY CHECKED THE VEHICLE IN (NOBODY ACTUALLY CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL, THEY SIMPLY PRINTED THE NECESSARY VIN CHECK PAPERWORK). IN ADDITION TO THIS I ALSO HAVE LOST CRUISE CONTROL FUNCTION AS WELL AS HAVING TO PRESS EXTREMELY HARD ON MY STEERING WHEEL BUTTONS FOR THEM TO WORK. SOUNDS SIMILAR TO OTHER PEOPLES' REPORTED PROBLEMS. I FEEL I SHOULDN'T BE CHARGED A DIAGNOSTIC IN THE FIRST PLACE AS THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE FIRST THING THAT WAS CHECKED AND CORRECTED BEFORE ANYTHING BUT I'LL HAVE TO TAKE THAT UP WITH THEM.

IN SEPTEMBER OF 2017 I PURCHASED A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED VEHICLE FROM AUTONATION JEEP DODGE CHRYSTLER IN KATY TEXAS. WITH THIS PURCHASE THERE WAS WRITTEN NOTICE OF IT BEING CERTIFIED WITH A COMPLETE INSPECTION DONE. THIS INSPECTION NOTES AND CERTIFIES THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SAFE, USABLE, AND WITH NO DEFECTS. THIS DOCUMENT SPECIFICALLY NOTED SEVERAL ITEMS THAT ARE INCLUDED IN THE SUSPENSION OF THE JEEP. ALL NOTED AS CERTIFIED. AFTER POSSESSION OF THE VEHICLE AN EVENT OCCURRED WHERE THE JEEP LOST CONTROL, PUTTING MY LIFE AND FAMILY'S LIFE AT RISK AS WE WERE THROWN INTO ANOTHER LANE OF TRAFFIC. WE HAD NO UNDERSTANDING OF WHAT MAY HAVE CAUSED THIS ISSUE AS WE UNDERSTOOD THAT THIS JEEP WAS CERTIFIED, BOTH WRITTEN AND ORALLY. I THEN TOOK THE JEEP TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP TO SEE WHAT CAUSED THE JEEP TO LOSE CONTROL. THE DEALERSHIP THEN FOUND THAT THE SHOCKS WERE NOT FASTENED PROPERLY BECAUSE OF MODIFICATIONS DONE BY EITHER AUTONATION JEEP DODGE CHRYSTLER IN KATY TEXAS OR A 3RD PARTY. NONE OF THIS WAS DISCLOSED IN THE WRITTEN OR ORAL CERTIFICATION OF THE VEHICLE. DODGE CHRYSTLER IN KATY TEXAS DENIED LIABILITY AND REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE FALSE WRITTEN AND ORAL CERTIFICATION OF THE VEHICLE. MY OPINION IS THAT THE JEEP IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND MAY NEVER BE SAFE TO DRIVE IN THE FUTURE. AUTONATION JEEP DODGE CHRYSTLER IN KATY TEXAS SHOULD HAVE BEEN AWARE OF THESE MODIFICATIONS AND SAFETY ISSUES DURING THEIR INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE. THIS INSPECTION WHICH WAS PASSED, SHOWN WRITTEN AND TOLD VERBALLY PUTS MY FAMILY AT RISK TO PROFIT ON A VEHICLE PURCHASE. IN DOING SO WE WERE FALSELY REPRESENTED IN THIS SITUATION FROM THE AUTONATION JEEP DODGE CHRYSTLER IN KATY TEXAS TEAM.

TAKATA RECALL WE GOT THE NOTICED ABOUT THE RECALL. HOW IT COULD BE LIFE THREATENING. WHAT I DON'T UNDERSTAND IS HOW A RECALL CAN BE PUT OUT LIKE THAT AND THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE. WE TOOK OUR JEEP TO THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD PART HAD TO BE ORDERED. LITTLE OVER A MONTH AND THE PART STILL WASN'T IN. NEEDLESS TO SAY OUR JEEP WAS IN A WRECK. NOW MY HUSBAND HAS NIGHTMARES BECAUSE WE WERE HEADING FOR A MEDIAN WALL STRAIGHT ON. SOME HOW HE GOT THE WHEEL TURNED JUST ENOUGH SO WE HIT THE CORNER OF THE BUMPER. THANK GOD THE AIR BAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY AS I COULD HAVE BEEN BADLY HURT OR DIED. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY GETTING PARTS TAKES SO LONG. SOMEONE NEEDS TO BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE WHEN IT IS THE MATTER OF LIFE AND DEATH. I HAVE BEEN IN TOUCH WITH JEEP AND THEY WANTED TO KNOW WHERE OUR JEEP WAS SO THEY COULD LOOK AT IT. WHY DOES THAT MATTER?! IT DOESN'T CHANGE THE FACT THAT IT TAKES SO LONG TO GET PARTS. PLEASE UNDERSTAND THIS IS MY WHOLE REASON IN WRITING YOU. CONSUMERS SHOULD NOT HAVE TO WAIT FOR PARTS ESPECIALLY WHEN THAT PART IS IN A VEHICLE. THE DATE BELOW IS THE DATE OF OUR ACCIDENT.

3.6 TICKING NOISE SOUNDS LIKE LIFTERS OR ROCKERS

ENGINE STARTED TICKING SOUNDS LIKE A VALVE OR LIFTER

JEEP HAS A KNOWN EPIC FAILURE IS DESIGN FLAW IN ITS 2014 WRANGLER WHEN IT SWITCHED FROM A METAL OIL FILTER COOLER HOUSING TO A PLASTIC OIL FILTER COOLER HOUSING. HUNDREDS OF CASES OF THE PART BREAKING/LEAKING OIL ALL OVER LOWER ENGINE AND EXHAUST WHICH IS A FIRE HAZARD. MY PART LEAKED OIL OVER AN UNKNOWN AMOUNT OF TIME BECAUSE I LIVE WITH A GRAVEL DRIVEWAY.....NOW DEALER SHOWS ME "METAL" LIKE GLOW TO OIL WHICH COULD BE ENGINE FAILURE.....HUNDREDS OF CASES

MOPAR OIL COOLER HOUSING, WHICH HOUSES A COOLER AND OIL FILTER, SITS ON THE ENGINE AND HAS CRACKED, CAUSING OIL TO LEAK OUT OF IT. OIL LEAKS DOWN THE ENGINE AND ONTO THE TRANSMISSION HOUSING. THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD AND A COMMON ISSUE WITH 2014'S, WHICH CAN BE FOUND VIA A QUICK AND SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH. CAR WAS STATIONARY WHEN I DISCOVERED THE LEAK. CAR DEALERSHIP VERIFIED THE ISSUE AND SUPPLIED ME WITH AN ESTIMATE, STATING THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE. ABOUT 3 HOUR REPAIR AND COULD COST 700-1100.

I WAS DRIVING MY JEEP AT NIGHT IN A RESIDENTIAL NEIGHBORHOOD. I LOOKED DOWN AND THERE WAS A SHARP TURN IN THE ROAD. BY THE TIME I REALIZED IT, IT WAS TOO LATE AND I HIT THE GUARD RAIL. THE FIRE STARTED RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY WINDSHIELD. I WAS ABLE TO GET OUT BUT WITHIN MINUTES MY ENTIRE JEEP THAT WAS LESS THAT A YEAR OLD AT THE TIME WAS COMPLETELY CONSUMED IN FLAMES. THE FRONT END WAS STILL IN TACT SO THE DAMAGE IN MY OPINION WAS NOT NEARLY ENOUGH TO RESULT IN TOTAL LOSS.

I HAVE CONTACTED A LOCAL DEALER AS WELL AS JEEP DIRECTLY AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE PART TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE IS NOT AVAILABLE. THIS HAS BEEN ON GOING FOR THREE MONTHS.

I HAVE TAKEN MY WRANGLER IN FOR THE 2ND TIME NOW WITH A BLACK SLUDGE IN THE OVERFLOW AND RADIATOR. THE LAST DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE RADIATOR, TRANS COOLER, ALL HOSES AND AND FLUSHED. NOW ONE YEAR LATER I AM HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 50,000 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP IS NOW TELLING ME THEY HAVE NO IDEA WHAT THE ISSUE IS, AND IS WANTING TO CHARGE ME FOR A FLUSH. THIS COOLANT IS RATED TO 150,000 MILES I SHOULD NOT NEED A FLUSH. I BELIEVE I MAY BE APART OF AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH SAND IN THE HEATER CORE AS THEY WANT TO REPLACE THIS BUT SAYING IT MAY NOT BE COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY. THERE IS ALWAYS AN ODOR OF ANTI-FREEZE WITH THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE NOTICED WHEN AROUND OTHER WRANGLER JK'S I SMELL THE ANTIFREEZE WITH THEM TOO.

LEFT HAND SIDE TOGGLE ( THAT SWITCHES TURN SIGNALS ON AND OFF) CAUSES LCD DISPLAY TO GLITCH OUT WHEN THE HEAD LIGHT CONTROL IS TURNED ALL THE WAY UP. FRIED MY LCD, REPLACEMENT $6000, NOW I NEED TO REPLACE HE TOGGLE , $375. ONLY GLITCHES ON ONE PARTICULAR SETTING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE CONTACT FELL ASLEEP BEHIND THE WHEEL AND CRASHED INTO A GUARDRAIL. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THERE WERE NO INJURIES SUSTAINED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOW LOT WHERE THE INSURANCE COMPANY INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TOTALED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 73,000. *DT *TR*JB

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY. IT WAS WINDY PER USUAL IN MIDWEST. I MET A SEMI AND BOTH RUBBER HOOD LATCHES SNAPPED. THE HOOD WAS FLUTTERING WILDLY HELD IN PLACE ONLY BY THE SAFETY HOOD CATCH. I MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, FOUND A JEEP DEALER ABOUT 30 MILES AWAY AND MADE IT THERE VIA NASTY DIRT ROADS FOR AN UNPLANNED EMERGENCY STOP TO GET IT TO REPLACED SO I COULD CONTINUE MY 6 HOUR JOURNEY. MY JEEP HAS NOT BEEN SUBJECTED TO UNUSUAL CONDITIONS, AND, IN FACT, HAS HAD A SHELTERED, HEATED GARAGE STALL AT LEAST HALF OF IT'S LIFE.

FIRST FEW YEARS HAD 2 MAJOR OIL LEAKS WHERE THEY TOOK APART CAR TO REPAIR. I BROUGHT CAR IN FOR OIL CHANGE ASKING THEM TO CHECK OIL THAT IS LEAKING FROM BOTTOM. WAS TOLD NOTHING WAS LEAKING. WEEKS LATER MY ENGINE WENT OUT WHILE DRIVING 2 CYLINDERS $4000 REPAIR. TWO MONTHS OUT OF WARRANTY. NOW MY JEEP IS LEAKING OIL AGAIN AND I'M SURE IF I TRUST THE JEEP DEALER AT THIS POINT. PLEASE HELP

I HAD A RECALL ON PASSENGER AIRBAG AND HAD IT REPAIRED AT DEALERSHIP. SINCE THE REPAIR, MY AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON AND THEY SAY I NEED A CLOCKSPRING REPLACED. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN UNTIL THEY REPLACED THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG. NOW THEY ARE SAYING I WILL HAVE TO PAY OVER $800 TO REPLACE THE CLOCKSPRING. I ONLY HAVE 62,000 MILES ON THE JEEP AND IT SHOULDN'T NEED THIS. IT SEEMS TO ME THAT SOMETHING HAPPENED WHEN WHEN THEY DID THE RECALL REPAIR.

ON 4/17/19, I WAS DRIVING MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER JK STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT (WITH MY WINDOW DOWN) WHEN I DETECTED THE ODOR OF BURNING OIL. I THOUGHT IT WAS FROM SOMEONE ELSE'S CAR. ON 4/21/19, I DETECTED THE ODOR AGAIN, AND WHEN I GOT HOME I OBSERVED OIL LEAKING AND ALL OVER THE UNDERSIDE OF MY VEHICLE. IT ALSO APPEARED TO BE DRIPPING ON MY HOT EXHAUST WHICH IS A FIRE HAZARD. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC AND HE SAID IT'S DUE A CRACKED PLASTIC OIL COOLER HOUSING, IT'S GOING TO SET ME BACK A LOT OF MONEY, AND THE ISSUE MAY HAPPEN AGAIN. I'M LUCKY THAT THE OIL DID NOT CATCH ON FIRE. I'VE DONE RESEARCH ONLINE AND SEE THAT NUMEROUS 2014 JEEP WRANGLERS HAVE THIS OIL LEAKAGE DUE TO DESIGN FLAW UTILIZING PLASTIC PARTS.

OIL FILTER/COOLER HOUSING LEAK. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2014/15 PENSTAR ENGINES. HAPPENING AROUND 50,000 MILES OR 5/6 OIL CHANGE. LEAK CAUSES OIL TO POOL ON TOP OF ENGINE AND RUNNING DOWN ONTO THE EXHAUST AND TRANSMISSION PAN. CAN LEAK AS MUCH AS .5 QUARTS OF OIL IN A SHORT MATTER OF TIME. THIS IS A $600 FIX AT A DEALER. RESEARCH SHOWS IT IS VERY COMMON. SOMETHING THIS COMMON SHOULD NOT BE PUT ON THE OWNERS EXPENSE.

THE CLOCKSPRING NEEDS TO BE REPLACED IN MY CAR. THIS IS A FIVE YEAR OLD CAR. THIS SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE. THIS SEEMS LIKE A SAFETY ISSUE AND A DEFECT AS PREVIOUS MODELS HAVE BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS ISSUE. HORN DOESN'T WORK. CRUISE CONTROL DOESN'T WORK. BUTTONS DO NOT WORK. IT'S MY UNDERSTANDING THIS CAN CAUSE THE AIR BAG TO NOT WORK.

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH THE JEEP FRONT END AND STEERING STARTED TO VIOLENTLY STAKE AND WOBBLE AND DID NOT STOP UNTIL THE JEEP CAME TO FULL STOP. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN A FEW MILES DOWN THE ROAD AFTER ENCOUNTERING A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD. AGAIN THIS VIOLENT WOBBLE DID NOT STOP UNTIL THE JEEP CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V018000 (AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT CALLED SAM LEMAN CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE OF PEORIA (1801 W PIONEER PKWY, PEORIA, IL 61615, (309) 692-1801) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

AT 167414 MILES FOUND CLUTCH SLIPPING, TROUBLESHOT TO CLUTCH BEING SATURATED WITH ENGINE OIL. PRIOR TO THE CLUTCH SLIPPING THE OIL FILTER HOUSING CRACKED TWICE AND REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY TWICE, SUSPECTED LEAK CAUSED CLUTCH TO BE SATURATED. DEALER PLACE DYE IN OIL TO VERIFY LEAK IS FIXED. ALSO TRYING TO WORK WITH DEALER TO REPLACE CLUTCH AT REASONABLE PRICE SONCE DAMAGE WAS CAUSED BY A WARRANTIED PART. WHILE TRANSMISSION WAS OUT ALSO FOUND TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAK FROM THE INPUT SHAFT SEAL I HAVE ASKED DEALER TO FIX THIS ISSUE, BUT ONLY RECOMMENDED A TRANSMISSION SERVICE, NOTHING TO VERIFY THE LEAK AND VERIFY THE INPUT SHAFT IS NOT SCORNED OR DAMAGED. WILL TAKE TO ANOTHER DEALER AFTER BEING CHECKED FOR THE DYE, ON THE RECOMMENDATION OF JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE. PHOTOS ATTACHED SHOW OIL AROUND CLUTCH, BELL HOUSING COATED WITH OIL AND THE INPUT SHAFT LEAK.

RANDOMLY THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND SHUT OFF THE SAME DAY. THE NEXT DAY IT CAME BACK ON AND WON'T GO OFF. THIS IS NEW. THE RADIO SKIPS EVERY COUPLE OF SECONDS AND INTERRUPTS ALL SOUND MAKING A POPPING NOISE FROM EVERY SPEAKER. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF I AM USING THE AUXILIARY SATELLITE AM FM OR EVEN DO YOU CONNECT DEVICE. USUALLY IF IT IS THE FIRST TIME THE VEHICLE IS STARTED THAT DAY THE RADIO WORKS FINE ALONG WITH EVERYTHING ELSE UNTIL IT IS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A YEAR IT STOPPED FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND STARTED UP AGAIN.

OIL COOLER HOUSING LEAKING OIL AT 30,000 MILES

PAINT BLISTERS ON DOOR HINGES

THE MECHANISM OF WHAT HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE IS UNDETERMINED WHETHER IT WAS STATIONARY OR WHILE DRIVING. HOWEVER I NOTICED A MASSIVE OIL LEAK AFTER DRIVING. THE ENTIRE UNDER SIDE OF THE JEEP WHERE THE TRANSMISSION AND TRANSFER CASE ARE WERE COMPLETELY SOAKED IN MOTOR OIL. AFTER TAKING IT TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP, THEY DIAGNOSED IT TO BE A LEAK COMING FROM THE ACTUAL OIL COOLER HOUSING. COME TO FIND OUT MY VEHICLE HAS ALREADY PASSED ITS WARRANTY COVERAGE DATE. AND AFTER DOING A LITTLE BIT OF RESEARCH, IT SEEMS I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH THEIR JEEP, NOT SPECIFICALLY JUST THE 2014 MODELS OTHERS AS WELL. OTHER THAN THE COMPLAINTS FROM INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE PURCHASED A JEEP, I HAVE YET TO FIND ANY COMMENT FROM MOPAR, CHRYSLER, OR THE JEEP MANUFACTURER THEMSELVES ADDRESSING THE ISSUE OF HAVING A PLASTIC OIL COOLER HOUSING. FYI ITS NOT THAT EASY OF A REPAIR SO IT COULD BE QUITE COSTLY TO SOME.

TAKATA RECALL-I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON MY 2014 JEEP AIR BAG. IT STATED THAT IT WAS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO TAKE STEPS TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND MY PASSENGERS. I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY LOCAL DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED MY JEEP. A FEW DAYS LATER THE DEALERSHIP CALLED AND TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE NECESSARY PARTS TO FIX MY JEEP TO MAKE IT SAFE. I ASKED WHEN THEY EXPECTED TO HAVE THE PART AND THEY SAID THEY DID NOT KNOW, THAT THE COMPANY HAD GONE BANKRUPT AND DID NOT MAKE THE AIRBAG. I TOLD THEM I DID NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THAT ANSWER AND THAT I DID NOT WANT TO DRIVE MY JEEP IN FEAR THAT THE AIRBAG MIGHT ERUPT CAUSING DEATH TO MYSELF OR MY PASSENGERS. I ASKED THEM IF THEY COULD DISASSEMBLE THE AIR BAG SO AS TO RELIEVE THIS POSSIBILITY OF INJURY OR DEATH AND THEY SAID NO THEY COULD NOT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND I AM REACHING OUT TO YOU AS INSTRUCTED IN THE AFOREMENTIONED LETTER. PLEASE HELP!

THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. FRANKLING CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (LOCATED AT 1124 MURFREESBORO RD, FRANKLIN, TN 37064, (615) 266-0145) WAS CALLED AND STATED THAT THE PART WOULD NOT BE AVAILABLE FOR APPROXIMATELY ANOTHER FOUR WEEKS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

THERE IS CURRENTLY A RECALL OUR ON THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR (PAB). I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT ON AT PREMIER CAPE COD ON MARCH 19TH TO HAVE IT SERVICED FOR THE RECALL ON MARCH 30TH, TO BE TOLD THEY DON'T DO RECALLS ON SATURDAYS. I WORK AND LIVE TWO HOURS FROM THIS LOCATION SO IT'S VERY INCONVENIENT FOR ME TO GET TO THIS LOCATION DURING THE WORK WEEK, AS I TRAVEL FREQUENTLY AS WELL. THE EARLIEST I CAN GET THE JEEP TO THE CAPE IS FRIDAY, APRIL 26TH AND EVEN THAT IS SUBSTANTIALLY INCONVENIENT - THEY ARE UNWILLING TO PROVIDE ME WITH A LOANER FOR THE SERVICE AS WELL. I'M DISAPPOINTED AND CONCERNED GIVEN THAT "AN INFLATOR EXPLOSION MAY CAUSE METAL FRAGMENTS TO PASS THROUGH THE AIR BAG AND INTO THE VEHICLE INTERIOR WHICH MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH." ANYWAY, JUST THOUGHT I'D PUT IN MY TWO CENTS.

TAKATA RECALL RECEIVED RECALL NOTICE AND TRIED TO SCHEDULE APPOIMTMENT FOR REPAIRS AND DEALER CAN'T GET PARTS AND TOLD ME TO TRY BACK EVERY MONTH OR SO. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE!

CRACKED WINDSHIELD FROM SIMPLY TURNING ON MY DEFROSTER.. WAS DRIVING , WINDOWS FOGGED AND TURNED UP HEAT AND DEFROST. NEXT THING I KNOW THERE IS A HORIZINTAL CRACK FROM THE LOWER CENTER THAT THEN TURNS VERTICALLY TOWARDS THE PASSENGER SIDE..UNBELIEVABLE!!

OIL FILTER ADAPTER HOUSING HAS BROKE

2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. STARTED WITH BURNING OIL SMELL IN VEHICLE. THEN PUDDLE ON THE GROUND WHEREVER I PARKED. WENT BACK TO SEE IF THEY PUT THE OIL FILTER ON WRONG. FOUND OUT IT WAS THE OIL HOUSING LEAKING. TAKING INTO JEEP FOR REPAIR ON 03/07/2019 MILAGE 94,000. SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL, THERE ARE SO MANY VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUES.

2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. STARTED WITH BURNING OIL SMELL IN VEHICLE. THEN PUDDLE ON THE GROUND WHEREVER I PARKED. HAD DEALER REPLACE ENGINE OIL COOLER MARCH 4TH 2019. MILAGE 87,000. SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL WITHOUT A DOUBT SINCE THERE ARE SO MANY VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ISSUES.

40000 MILES AND THE REAR MAIN SEAL IS ALREADY LEAKING BAD. HAPPENED WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT IT IN 2016 AND THE DEALER SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG OR LEAKING AS I WAS LOOSING OIL.. NOW IT'S LEAKING TERRIBLY BAD AND THEY WON'T COVER IT.

ENGINE LIGHT IS ON DO TO OIL PRESSURE SENSOR. FROM EVERYTHING I'M READING THIS IS VERY COMMON IN THE JEEP WRANGLERS. WHY ISN'T THIS RECALLED. I WAS QUOTED $600.00 TO GET THIS FIX. I AM TOLD NOT TO DRIVE THIS AS IT COULD RUIN THE ENGINE.

I HAVE THE 2014 JEEP WRANGLER WITH ONLY 47000 MILES. I HAVE KEPT EXCELLENT CARE OF THIS VEHICLE AND IT IS USED ONLY AS DAILY DRIVER WITH NO ABUSE WHATSOEVER.JUST WITHIN THE MONTH OF 2/2019 A CODE; P0305 MISFIRE DEVELOPED WITH THE TYPICAL PENASTAR ENGINE "KNOCK" AND IDLING ROUGH. ALSO, THE LAST WEEK OF 2/2019 THERE WAS A LARGE OIL SPOT ON MY GARAGE FLOOR DUE TO AN OIL COOLER/OIL HOUSING LEAK. WE IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE SERVICE SUPERVISOR AT THE DEALERSHIP WHO STATED THAT THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON OCCURANCE AND THE OIL COOLER/HOUSING UNIT IS REPLACED OFTEN. HOW IT IS POSSIBLE THAT CHRYSLER CAN ALLOW THIS? AT 47000 MILES THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN AND IS ENEXCEPTABLE.UNTIL THIS EXTENSIVE REPAIR IS COMPLETED THE VEHICLE IS IS RENDERED USELESS AND MY JOB IS NOW INTERRUPTED. NOW IN ADDTION TO THE MISFIRE I NOW HAVE THIS HUGE OIL LEAK TO CONTEND WITH; PLEASE REFER TO THE PICTURE ATTACHED OF THE OIL STAIN THAT WAS DISCOVERED ON MY GARAGE FLOOR.... THE ENTIRE BOTTOM OF THE OF MY TRANSMISSION/BELL HOUSING AND CROSS MEMBER COVERED IN OIL. MOREOVER I JUST RECEIVED AN LETTER INFORMING ME THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG ALSO IS RECALLED AND I HAVE YET TO ADDRESS THIS AS WELL. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT AGAIN. I CAN'T TELL YOU THE LEVEL OF DISAPPOINTMENT AND BETRAYAL I FEEL FOR BUYING AN "AMERICAN MADE" CAR. I HOPE CHRYSLER/FIAT CORPERATE IS ENJOYING SHORT CHANGING THE CONSUMER BUY USING INFERIOR AND FAULTY PARTS TO SAVE MONEY AND RIP OFF THE CONSUMER THIS WAY. I AM SURE NO ONE CARES AND I AM JUST WASTING MY TIME BUT THIS SHOULD BE NOTED AND PEOPLE MADE AWARE.

THE OIL FILTER HOUSING AND OIL COOLER IS LEAKING CAUSING OIL TO POOL ON TOP OF ENGINE. THIS COULD CAUSE A FIRE DUE TO OIL RUNNING DOWN THE ENGINE AND GETTING ON THE EXHAUST.

TAKATA INFLATER. THE PROBLEM ISN'T THE RECALL. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX IT IN A TIMELY MANNER. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL HAVE PARTS THAT CHRYSLER (FIAT) IS RATIONING THEM. WHY IS MY SAFETY IN JEOPARDY BECAUSE JEEP WON'T APPROVE PARTS?

THE OIL FILTER HOUSING IS LEAKING AND THE VALVES AND ROCKER ARMS NEED REPLACING

REGARDING COMPLAINT NUMBER: 11175198. THE INFORMATION PROVIDED TO YOU IN MY COMPLAINT WAS SENT TO JEEP US CUSTOMER CARE, FIAT CHRYSLER AUTOMOTIVE GROUP (FCA) FIRST, AND THEY FWD IT TO THE JEEP CHRYSLER REGIONAL MANAGER FOR APPROVAL TO OPEN A "STAR" CASE SO ENGINEERING TECHNICIANS AT FCA COULD LOOK AT THE PROBLEM ON THE JEEP AS IDENTIFIED TO YOU. THE REGIONAL MAINTENANCE MANAGER --REFUSED TO OPEN THE "STAR" CASE --FEARING THAT THE IDENTIFIED ELECTRICAL & ENGINE PROBLEM COULD CAUSE A RECALL AND SAFETY RECALL. ON 2-18-2019 I RECEIVED A CALL FROM US CUSTOMER CARE AT FIAT CHRYSLER AUTOMOTIVE, AND TOLD THAT BECAUSE OF THE AREA MANAGEMENT REFUSAL TO OPEN A "STAR" MY CASE WITH THEM HAS BEEN CLOSED.

FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SEAT BELT SPOOL MALFUNCTIONS AND DOES NOT RETRACT SEAT BELT, LEAVING TOO MUCH SLACK TO RESTRAIN DRIVER OR PASSENGER IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT. DEALER CHARGES $533.10 FOR PARTS AND LABOR FOR SEAT BELT REPLACEMENT. SEAT BELT IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY OR BY RECALL (THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL FOR THIS). LIKE AN AIRBAG, THIS SHOULD BE COVERED.

I REPORTED TO MY DEALER APPROXIMATELY 6 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE IN 2014 THAT AT RANDOM TIMES WHILE IN MOTION ALL SAFETY LIGHTS WOULD ILLUMINATE, THE RADIO WOULD GO OFF AND THERE WOULD BE A DING NOISE WHEN THIS HAPPENED. I EVEN TOOK IT IN ON TWO DIFFERENT OCCASIONS AND HAVE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO INQUIRE IF THERE WERE ANY RECALLS ASSOCIATED WITH THIS SINCE IT HAPPENS WHILE IN MOTION. THEY HAVE TEST DROVE IT BUT NEVER COULD GET IT TO DO WHAT I DESCRIBED. THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED WAS IN DECEMBER 2018. IT JUST HAPPENS RANDOMLY, BUT IS VERY SCARY AND SEEMS DANGEROUS SINCE ALL THE SAFETY LIGHTS ILLUMINATE, RPM GAUGE DROPS ETC PUTTING IT IN NEUTRAL AND BACK TO DRIVE IT SEEMS TO CORRECT ITSELF, BUT IT IS STILL VERY CONCERNING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V018000 (AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP AND RAM OF INVERNESS (2077 FL-44, INVERNESS, FL 34453, (352) 341-7398) WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

LEAKING OIL DUE TO OIL COOLER FAILURE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE ON THE 3.6L PENSTAR ENGINES AND CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP DOES NOTHING TO REPAIR IT. I HAVE LOOKED UP PLENTY OF THREADS AND VIDEOS ON THIS AND THIS IS NOT A EASY OR CHEAP REPAIR. THE RESULT IS OIL LEAKING FROM THE BACK OF THE OF THE INTAKE MANIFOLD AND DOWN THE BACK OF THE ENGINE AND TO THE GROUND.

WHILE DRIVING MODERATE SPEED ON A RURAL RD (EST MILES 115K), ALL RED & YELLOW LIGHTS CAME ON, "NO BUS" LIGHT CAME ON WHICH IS NOT LISTED IN THE OPS MANUAL, WINDSHIELD WIPERS CAME ON, RPM GAUGE WENT TO ZERO, FUEL GAUGE WENT TO EMPTY, ENGINE LIGHT FLASHING AND ENGINE RUNNING ROUGH TO POSSIBLE STALL. WITHIN A PERIOD OF TIME 10 MIN OR SO EVERYTHING CAME BACK TO NORMAL AND JEEP RAN OK. THIS HAS HAPPEN TO MY WIFE WHO IS A RURAL MAIL CARRIER ON MANY OCCASIONS. IN FACT IN 1 WEEK IT HAPPENED EVERY DAY AND IT HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES OVER A LONG PERIOD. JEEP SERVICE FOLKS DON'T KNOW WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM AS THE CODES DO NOT PIN POINT THE PROBLEM. THEY "THINK" POSSIBILITY IT COULD BE PWR FUSE BOX, MAIN COMPUTER OR FWD INSTRUMENT PANEL EA AT A COST OF OVER $1000 TO REPLACE. SERVICE FOLKS WANT T JEEP BROUGHT TO THEM WITH LIGHTS ON, GAUGES ZERO, ENGINE LIGHT FLASHING BUT IT'S AN INTERMITTENT PROBLEM AND THEY ARE 30 MILES OR MORE AWAY DEPENDING WHERE THE PROBLEM HAPPENS. SERVICE FOLKS HAVE HAD THE JEEP FOR A TOTAL OF 3 DAYS IN JAN & FEB AND DROVE IT OVER 150 MILE AND THE PROBLEM NEVER APPEARED. IN FEB 2015 WHILE DRIVING (24,171 MILES) THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME "ON" AND JEEP STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. IT WAS RESTARTED AND DRIVEN SO JEEP WAS THEN TAKEN TO DEALER AND THEY FOUND THAT A FAULT CODE SAID "WIRING DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH SLACK BETWEEN SENSOR & WIRING CAUSING POOR CONNECTION". REPLACED CAM SENSOR & WIRING. FAULT CLEARED. HAVE PHOTOS OF DASH WITH "ALL LIGHTS AND GAUGES SHOWING ZERO AND NO BUS LIGHT ON AND WIPERS GOING BACK AND FORTH. I'LL SEND IF YOU NEED THEM BUT IT ALL LIGHTS AND GAUGES WHICH ARE DEPICTED IN THE OPS MANUAL. THIS POSSIBLE ENGINE STALLING WHILE DRIVING AND POSSIBLE ELECTRICAL FIRE IS A SAFETY ISSUE. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED OVER MANY MONTHS THROUGHOUT 2018.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THERE WAS A LARGE PUDDLE OF OIL UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE OIL WAS LEAKING FROM THE OIL COOLER FILTER HOUSING ONTO THE EXHAUST FAN. CHAMPION CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (4505 WEST 96TH STREET, INDIANAPOLIS, IN 46268, (317) 872-6200) DIAGNOSED THAT THE OIL COOLER FILTER HOUSING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,000.

NOTICED LARGE DROPLETS OF OIL UNDER JEEP. UPON INSPECTION, WITHOUT REMOVAL OF ANY COMPONENTS, LOOKED AS THOUGH OIL WAS POOLING AND DRIPPING AND HAD BEEN SPRAYING BACK TOWARDS TRANSMISSION. ISSUE A RECALL. DOES IT TAKE A SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH BEFORE SOMEONE REALIZES THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE?

DRIVE THE JEEP APPROXIMATELY 10 MILES ON 1/18/19. PARKED IT IN MY DRIVE WAY FOR THE NIGHT. AIR TEMP GOT TO BETWEEN 15 AND 20 DEGREES THAT NIGHT. AT APPROXIMATELY 10:30 AM I STARTED THE JEEP TO ALLOW IT TO WARM UP BEFORE DRIVING 3 MILES TO TOWN. AT ABOUT MILE 2 I NOTICED A BURNING OIL SMELL. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND SAW MOTOR OIL COVERING MY TRANSMISSION AND EXHAUST. I CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WAS ABOUT 1/2 A QUART LOW. I DROVE THE JEEP HOME AT THAT POINT AND PARKED IT. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT. I WAS TOLD IT WAS A CRACK IN THE OIL COOLER HOUSING ASSEMBLY. SERVICE TECH EXPLAINED IT WAS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THIS YEAR MODEL AND THAT JEEP WAS AWARE OF IT. WHEN I ASKED ABOUT PRICING AND RECALLS THE TECH SAID IT WASN'T A RECALLED PART AND THE TOTAL REPAIR COST WOULD BE AROUND $1000.00. CONFUSED I CALLED AROUND TO OTHER JEEP OWNERS AS WELL AS OTHER AUTHORIZED JEEP REPAIR SHOPS AND WAS TOLD THIS. IT IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM BUT NOT COVERED UNDER ANY RECALL. THIS PROBLEM IS ALL TO COMMON FOR THERE NOT TO BE A RECALL. THE DANGER LIES IN THE FACT THAT HAD SOMEONE LESS KNOWLEDGEABLE BEEN DRIVING, FIRE COULD HAVE ERUPTED FROM THE LARGE AMOUNT OF OIL ON THE EXHAUST, ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO A SUDDEN LOSS OF OIL, AND NOT TO MENTION THE OIL THAT IS NOW RUNNING ONTO THE ROADWAY. AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES AS WELL.

TAKARA RECALL, BUT NO PARTS AVAILABLE TO FIX, AND DEALERS HAVE NO WAY TO ORDER THE NEW PART, FIX UNKNOWN TO THEM TO DATE. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE, CAN CAUSE DEATH.

UPON STARTUP, IN PARK AND STATIONARY, ENGINE REVS TO 4000-5000 RPM, TURN IGNITION TO OFF AND RESTART, ENGINE REVS TO 4000-5000 RPM, TURN IGNITION TO OFF, WAIT 30 SECONDS RESTART EVERYTHING SEEMS FINE. BOUGHT NEW IN 2014, HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE LAST 5 YEARS.

FREEZING COLD (TEENS) TEMPS OUTSIDE, STARTED VEHICLE, HUGE OIL PUDDLE UNDER AFTER 10 MINUTES RUNNING TO WARM UP. TOOK SNAKE CAMERA, FOUND OIL RUNNING OUT REAR AND DOWN TRANNY BELL HOUSING. FOUND ENGINE OIL COOLER TO BE THE PROBLEM WHICH IS PLASTIC!!!!!!. THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD TO SAY THE LEAST.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. MECHANIC TOLD ME IT WOULD COST ABOUT ONE THOUSAND DOLLARS FOR THE REPAIR OF THE OIL SENSOR SWITCH LOCATED INSIDE THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE HAS ABOUT 31K MILES AND I'M THE ORIGINAL OWNER. PLEASE LMK IF THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. [XXX]. MY NAME IS [XXX] VEHICLE IS RARELY USED. AT THE TIME I NOTICED THE ENGINE LIGHT IT HAD BEEN SITTING FOR ABOUT A WEEK. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *CC *TR

2014 WRANGLER HAS KNOWN FAULTY OIL PRESSURE SENDING UNIT SENSOR AS THERE WAS A TSB ON JULY 15, 2014 STATING SUCH. TSB # 18-034-14 REV. A AND RRT 14-046. 1,000 MILES SHORT OF THE 3 YR, 36K MILE WARRANTY, BUT 6 MONTHS PAST THE 3 YEAR AND JEEP WANTS $411 TO FIX THEIR KNOWN PROBLEM. JEEP STATES SINCE IT IS A SENSOR, IT NOT COVERED BY THE LONGER POWERTRAIN WARRANTY.

OIL FILTER HOUSING STARTED LEAKING WITH NO WARNING OR EVENTS OCCURRING IN THE AREA. FAST RESEARCH STATES THIS IS A COMMONLY KNOW ISSUE THAT JEEP IS AWARE OF BUT AVOIDING.

TAKARA RECALL THE OIL COOLER HOUSING IS LEAKING WHICH IS CAUSING OIL TO RUN DOWN AND SPRAY ALL OVER UNDERNEATH THE ENGINE AND TRANS, CAUSING SMOME. I'M SEEING HUNDREDS OF POST ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE.

OIL FILTER COOLER ADAPTER LEAKING AND DUE TO THE PLACEMENT OF THE UNIT INTAKE MANIFOLD MUST BE REMOVED. OIL LEAKING AND COVERING UNDERCARRIAGE AND EXHAUST, APPEARS TO BE A CHRONIC AND WELL DOCUMENTED PROBLEM WITH THE 3.6 PENSTAR ENGINE. AFTER A LITTLE RESEARCH THE UNIT APPEARS TO BE A WELL KNOWN ISSUE. TIME FOR CHRYSLER TO STEP UP.

THE OIL FILTER HOUSING ON THE V6 3.6L PENSTAR FAILED, ALLOWING OIL TO LEAK DIRECTLY ONTO THE INTAKE MANIFOLD WHILE THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING. FROM THERE THE OIL DRAINED DOWN THE BACK OF THE ENGINE, DOWN THE TRANSMISSION AND ONTO THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. FROM PERSONAL EXPERIENCE I KNOW THIS TO BE A FIRE HAZARD. BASED ON MY OWN RESEARCH THIS FAILURE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THIS YEAR MODEL AND RESULTED IN THE MANUFACTURER MAKING CHANGES ON LATER MODELS. HOWEVER, THIS DOES ADDRESS THE THOUSANDS OF VEHICLES STILL ON THE ROAD. PART NUMBER SEEMS TO BE 68105583AA.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO IVERSON MAX JEEP (101 2ND ST, HURON, SD) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CAMSHAFT SENSOR WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AND THE FAILURE WAS REMEDIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 110,000.

OIL FILTER/ COOLER CRACKED AND LEAKING OIL. JEEP STATES I WAS 16DAYS OUTSIDE THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY AND WILL NOT HELP COVER COSTS TO REPAIR WELL KNOWN ISSUE FOR 3.6L PENTASTAR ENGINE

I RECENTLY DROVE MY JEEP ABOUT 14 HOURS ROUNDTRIP FOR THANKSGIVING. I CHECKED THE OIL RIGHT BEFORE BECAUSE I KNEW AN OIL CHANGE WAS COMING UP, BUT IT WAS STILL FINE SO I DIDN'T WORRY ABOUT IT. ON THE WAY HOME, THE 'CHANGE OIL SOON' LIGHT CAME ON, SO I CHECKED IT AGAIN WHEN I GOT HOME AND IT WAS COMPLETELY DRY! I'M NOT REALLY SURE HOW IT WAS STILL RUNNING. I PUT MORE OIL IN IT AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY FOUND A CRACK IN THE OIL COOLER. I HADN'T HAD AN ISSUE WITH LEAKING UNTIL THIS POINT, BUT I HEARD OTHERS WITH THE SAME TYPE OF CAR HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE.

STRONG FUEL SMELL FROM LEAKING FUEL ON TOP OF FUEL TANK, ESPECIALLY WHEN TANK NEAR FULL. STRONG ENOUGH TO SMELL ANYWHERE AROUND THE CAR WHEN PARKED WHETHER IT WAS RUNNING OR NOT, EVEN OUTSIDE. DEALER DIAGNOSED CRACKED FUEL PUMP BUT UNABLE TO GET THE PART DUE TO BACKORDER, NO SAFETY RECALL, NO WARRANTY. OBVIOUSLY DANGEROUS TO TO DRIVE SO HAD IT FIXED BY INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. PULLED OUT FUEL PUMP AND THE PLASTIC WAS CRACKED ALL AROUND THE OUTSIDE EDGE UNDER THE LOCKING RING WHICH WAS THE SOURCE OF THE LEAKING FUEL. DEALER AND JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE OFFERED NO REMEDY. BEWARE OF THIS PROBLEM IF YOUR JEEP JK HAS A STRONG FUEL SMELL.

OIL FILTER AND COOLER LEAKING OIL ALL OVER ENGINE AND EXHAUST THE FUMES FROM BURNING OIL ALL INSIDE THE CABINE

OIL FILTER HOUSING AND COOLER UNIT CRACKED CAUSING OIL TO LEAK DOWN ON TOP OF EXHAUST POSING A FIRE HAZARD.

I DEVELOPED A OIL LEAK DUE TO THE KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE OIL COOLER/FILTER HOUSING DEVELOPING A CRACK ON MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. THIS IS CAUSING OIL TO DRIP ON THE EXHAUST WHILE DRIVING AND POSING A FIRE RISK.

WHILE DRIVING, SWAY BAR DISCONNECT LIGHT ILLUMINATES, SKID CONTROL LIGHT ILLUMINATES, ALL GAUGES GO OFF, THEN ON. DOORS WILL NOT UNLOCK FROM THE INSIDE USING THE DOOR CONTROL. WILL UNLOCK USING THE KEY FOB. DANGEROUS CONDITION WHEN SWAY BAR DISCONNECTS DRIVING AT HIGH WAY SPEED.

MASSIVE OIL LEAK COVERING ENTIRE ENGINE AND EXHAUST SYSTEM CAUSED BY DEFECTIVE 68105583AF ADAPTER - ENGINE OIL FILTER

STARTED UP MY VEHICLE TO TAKE DAUGHTER TO THE BUS. DROVE 20 YARDS TO THE ROAD TO WAIT ON THE BUS BACKED UP MY JEEP AND SHUT IT OFF AFTER SHE GOT ON THE BUS. OIL WAS EVERYWHERE. TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND THE OIL FILTER HOUSING COOLER OR WHATEVER HE CALLED IT WAS BROKEN. APPARENTLY FROM WHAT HE TOLD ME AND WHAT I READ THIS IS AN EXTREMELY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE 2014 MODEL. KNOWING IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM AND A VITAL PIECE OF THE JEEP FUNCTIONALITY, WHY IS IT MADE OF PLASTIC AND WHY IS THERE NO RECALL ON IT? MY JEEP LITERALLY LOST ALL OIL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MCLARTY DANIEL CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (2201 SE MOBERLY LN, BENTONVILLE, AR 72712, (479) 250-3900) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL; THEREFORE, THE CONTACT WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000.

OIL FILTER ADAPTER CRACKED, NOW LEAKING OIL.

THE HEAT DOES NOT WORK ON THE DRIVER SIDE OF MY JEEP. THIS HAS RESULTED IN A VISIBILITY ISSUE DUE TO NOT BEING ABLE TO DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD ON THE DRIVERS SIDE. WE TOOK IT IN TO A MECHANIC TO BE LOOKED AT AND THE HEATER CORE WAS FOUND TO BE CLOGGED WITH A SAND LIKE SUBSTANCE. THE ISSUE WAS NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY SO WE HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THIS TO BE FIXED. THE HEATER CORE WAS FLUSHED AND 2 DAYS LATER SAME ISSUE NO HEAT ON DRIVERS SIDE. WE TOOK IT BACK IN AND THE SAME SAND LIKE SUBSTANCE WAS FOUND AGAIN TO BE CLOGGING THE SYSTEM. THIS TIME WE HAD TO REPLACED THE HEATER CORE AND HAVE IT FLUSHED AGAIN NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY. 3 DAYS LATER THE SAME ISSUE SAND LIKE SUBSTANCE CLOGGING THE SYSTEM AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP STATED THAT IT IS NOT COVERED AND THEY WILL HAVE TO CHARGE US TO LOOK AT IT. I READ ON SEVERAL JEEP FORMS THAT JEEPS HAVING THE SAME ISSUE AND THE SAND LIKE SUBSTANCE IS FROM THE CASTING AND IT CAN DAMAGE YOUR ENTIRE COOLING SYSTEM. IF SO MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THIS ISSUE THEN WHY IS IT NOT BEING LOOKED INTO. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD US TO CONTACT CHRYSLER AND THEN CHRYSLER DOES NOT LISTEN TO YOU AND SAYS TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AFTER WE HAVE ALREADY HAD THE ISSUE DIAGNOSED.

NOTICED OIL ON MY DRIVEWAY TWO MONTHS AFTER A ROUTINE OIL CHANGE. TOOK TO THE DEALER AND THE OIL FILTER HOUSING WAS CRACKED. JEEP ONLY HAD 41K MILES ON IT, RESULTING IN A $1050 REPAIR COST TO REPLACE. I NORMALLY TAKE IT TO AN OIL CHANGE PLACE (MR GOOD LUBE), BUT THEY REFUSED TO WORK ON MY JEEP THIS TIME SINCE THEY WERE AWARE OF THIS OIL FILTER HOUSING ISSUE (AND I AM GUESSING HAVE BEEN BLAMED). I TOOK IT TO MY NORMAL MECHANIC INSTEAD FOR THE OIL CHANGE. TWO MONTHS LATER, THE OIL STARTED LEAKING SO WAS FORCED TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER.

VEHICLE WAS SMOKING AND LEAKING OIL AT VARIOUS TIMES. DEALER IDENTIFIED THE ISSUE AS A CRACKED OIL COOLER.

MY CAR RECENTLY STARTED A TICKING NOISE THAT WILL NOT GO AWAY. TICKING INCREASES WHILE VEHICLE ACCELERATES.

I NOTICED THERE IS A LEAK FROM MY OIL FILTER HOUSING, I COULD T TELL WHY IN MY UNDER CARRIAGE I HAD OIL GOING BACK NEAR TRANSMISSION FOLLOWED THE LEAK UP TO THE OIL FILTER HOUSING I AM NOT SURE IF IT IS CRACKED BUT AT ONLY 49K THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING AND I HAVE READ ON MANY THREADS THIS IS ANY ISSUE THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL AND COVERED UNDER POWER TERRAIN WARRANTY. I NOTICED IT BECAUSE I WAS CHECKING MY DIFFERENTIAL FLUIDS AND SAW THE MESS OF OIL SPRAYING ALL OVER MY UNDER CARRIAGE

WIPER STOPPED WORKING DURING A RAINSTORM WHILE DRIVING ON THE RAOD WHEN PUTTING ON NEW TIRES NOTICED THE SEAL IS LEAKING

OUR RUBICON HAD DIFFICULTY GOING IN REVERSE RECENTLY. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THIS THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDING REPLACEMENT WITH ONLY 55,300 MILES AND JUST A MONTH OUT OF WARRANTY. WE FEEL LIKE THIS IS A DEFECTIVE PRODUCT WITH SO FEW MILES. CHRYSLER DOES NOT APPEAR INTERESTED IN ADDRESSING THE ISSUE. I HAVE SEEN OTHER ISSUES ONLINE AND WONDER IF THIS IS COMMON. HENCE OUR COMPLAINT FOR THE RECORD.

AFTER GETTING A FINE DUST WITHIN THE CABIN OF THE JEEP I HAD MY AIRBAG LIGHT COME ON. AFTER DOING RESEARCH I SAW THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM BUT I WAS INFORMED THAT MY JEEP WAS NOT IN THE RECALL LIST. I FIND THIS HIGHLY CONCERNING AS THE SAFETY RECALL S40 IS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENED TO MY JEEP WHEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. I WOULD LIKE THIS TO BE LOOKED INTO AS IT IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE THAT THE COMPANY ALREADY HAS PLACED A RECALL FOR JEEPS OF MY YEAR OF MAKE.

THE OIL FILTER/COOLER HOUSING HAS CRACKED AND IS LEAKING OIL WITH LESS THAN 45,000

AT ABOUT 30,000 MILES WHILE ON A HIGHWAY MY JEEP SUDDENLY SMELLED LIKE IT WAS BURNING AND I LOST ACCELERATION ON IT. TOOK IT TO MY LIFE TIME MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THAT THERE WAS OIL SLUDGE EVERYWHERE ON THE ENGINE. HE CHANGED THE OIL OUT, CLEANED OUT THE ENGINE BUT DIDN'T FIND ANY ISSUES WITH THE OIL TANK OR HOSES. A YEAR LATER, NOW AT 40,000 MILES, MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT SUDDENLY COMES ON. MECHANIC READS A "MISFIRE" ERROR. HE CHANGES OUT ALL MY SPARK PLUGS, THE IGNITION COIL AND THE PLENUM GASKET. CLEANS OUT THE FUEL INJECTORS AND THE CAR IS HUMMING BEAUTIFULLY AGAIN. BUT 5 DAYS LATER, AGAIN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. MECHANIC CHECKS EVERYTHING HE DID AND CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. HE RESEARCHED AND THINKS IT COULD BE THE EXHAUST VALVE SEATS BEING WORN OUT. RECOMMENDS I TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. LOW AND BEHOLD, THEY DISCOVER THAT A CYLINDER HEAD NEEDS TO BE COMPLETELY REPLACED! APPARENTLY AN ISSUE THEY KEEP ENCOUNTERING FREQUENTLY IN THIS MODEL. I'VE SEEN IT POSTED ON A BUNCH OF THREADS REGARDING JEEPS. THANK GOODNESS I WAS 4 DAYS AWAY FROM MY 5 YEAR WARRANTY TO EXPIRE WHEN THIS HAPPENED!!!! I THINK THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON ALL THE 2014 JEEPS TO MAKE SURE THIS ISSUE IS RESOLVED ONCE AND FOR ALL. MY VIN DID NOT SHOW A RECALL PER YOUR SYSTEM, BUT ALL 2014 JEEPS SHOULD BE CHECKED SINCE IT'S OCCURRING SO FREQUENTLY, AND PEOPLE WILL BE OUT OF THEIR WARRANTY SOON WITH THAT YEAR'S MODEL.

P0520 - ENGINE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT. TSB- 18-034-14 REV.A ISSUED: 07/15/147 THERE HAS BEEN PROBLEMS WITH THE SENSOR FOR YEARS, MULTIPLE FORUMS WITH COMPLAINTS RELATED TO THIS ISSUE IN NOT ONLY JEEP, BUT MANY CHRYSLER 3.6 LITER ENGINES. THE ADDITIONAL TROUBLE WITH JEEP IS IT IS NOT AN EASY FIX THE WHOLE MANIFOLD HAS TO BE REMOVED TO BE ABLE TO SWITCH OUT THE PART. IT IS A 4 HOUR LABOR CHARGE JUST TO REPLACE, AS WELL AS, MANY HAVE BEEN REPLACED AND HAD PROBLEM RECUR.

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY FOR ABOUT A FEW SECONDS UP TO MINUTES WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT AND/OR TURNING AND/OR OVER BUMPS.

I HAVE AN ENGINE FAILURE CODE 520 FOR THE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH OR HARNESS WITH ONLY 8315 MILES ON THIS VEHICLE. I FOUND A JEEP FORUM THAT DESCRIBED THIS PROBLEM IN DETAIL AND STATED THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE 2012 WITH THIS VEHICLE. IT WAS ALSO STATED THAT TO REPLACE THE DEFECTIVE OIL PRESSURE SWITCH THE INTAKE MANIFOLD AND FUEL INJECTOR RAIL WOULD NEED TO BE REMOVED. THAT IS A LITTLE MORE COMPLICATED THAN WHAT I AM WILLING TO TRY. THIS SHOULD BE HANDLED UNDER A RECALL OR AT LEAST AN EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR CONSUMER PROTECTION.

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AFTER DRIVING LESS THAN 5MI. I STOPPED AND CONSULTED THE MANUAL. I DECIDED TO PROCEED HOME AFTER READING IT IS ONLY URGENT IF LIGHT IS FLASHING. I CHECKED MY OBD AND IT READ THE CODE P06DD WHICH INDICATED A PROBLEM WITH OIL PUMP. MY LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON. DEALERSHIP REPLACED A SWITCH. SHORTLY AFTER MY LIGHT CAME BACK ON READING THE SAME CODE. ADDITIONALLY, I SMELLED BURNING OIL AND CAR WENT TO LIMP MODE WHEN AT 3000 RPMS. DEALERSHIP REPLACED OIL PUMP FINALLY. SHORTLY AFTER, THE CAR BEGAN LEAKING A LOT OF OIL. DEALERSHIP REPLACED OIL COOLER/HOUSING. DUE TO THE CONSTANT PROBLEMS AND MISDIAGNOSIS I CONSULTED SEVERAL OTHER DEALERSHIPS AND FOUND OUT THAT THEY FREQUENTLY SEE MY VEHICLE TYPE TO REPLACE COOLER. APPARENTLY, IT IS DUE TO CHANGES MADE ON THE 3.6 ENGINES INCLUDING A PLASTIC PIECE THAT WAS FORMALLY METAL. THE DEALERSHIP I HAD DO THE REPAIRS, CLAIM THAT THE SWITCH WAS THE PROBLEM AND EVERYTHING ELSE WAS COINCIDENTAL DESPITE ME HAVING THE CODE FOR OIL PUMP FROM DAY 1. AT APPROX 45000MI IT IS UNCOMMON FOR OIL SYSTEM FAILURES HOWEVER IT SEEMS TO BE COMMON FOR THIS MAKE/MODEL/YEAR AT SIMILAR MILAGES. SEARCH FORUMS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON WHILE IN MOTION. I TOOK IT IN FOR SERVICE AND WITH 3 HOURS OF CHECKING UNABLE TO VERIFY THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN WITH OUT A VEHICLE FOR A DAY AND A HALF. I DO HAVE IT AT THE DEALERSHIP. IS THIS A MANUFACTURED ISSUE

MY HORN DOESN'T WORK. MY TURNING SIGNALS INTERMITTENTLY WORKING, MY WINDOWS WOULDN'T WORK, THE LIGHTER WASN'T WORKING, BUT NOW IS. DRIVING DOWN ROAD. CHANGED FUSES, CHANGED LIGHT BULBS. SAME RESULD.

OIL FILTER ADAPTER PART NO. 68105583AA FAILS AND CAUSES OIL LEAK.

PARKED VEHICLE ON A SLOPE IN THE MOUNTAINS WITH THE PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED. THE VEHICLE IS AN AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION AND WAS IN PARK. IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING ALL PASSENGERS EXITING THE VEHICLE, IT SLOWLY STARTED ROLLING AWAY, BACKWARDS. IT TRAVELED DOWN A 4WD ROAD A SMALL DISTANCE BEFORE TURNING OFF AND TUMBLING DOWN THE MOUNTAIN. LUCKILY EVERYONE HAD EXITED THE VEHICLE AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THOUGH WE WERE PARKED ON A SLOPE, PROBABLY AROUND 15 DEGREES, THERE WAS COMPLETE FAILURE OF BOTH THE PARK GEAR AND THE PARKING BRAKE ALLOWING A ROLLAWAY. THE PARKING SURFACES WAS A COMBINATION SOLID ROCK AND DIRT.

2014 JEEP RUBICON. VERY WELL TAKEN CARE OF. LESS THAT 19,000 MILES. 7/10/18, JEEP RAN FINE IN MORNING AND AFTERNOON. TRIED TO START AFTER WORK (4:15 PM) AND WOULD NOT TURN OVER. JUMP START BATTERY AND DROVE TO DEALERSHIP. NOTHING ON DASH WAS WORKING WHILE DRIVING. SPEEDOMETER NEEDLE BOUNCING. WHILE DRIVING ALL LIGHTS WERE ON AND FLICKERING. EVEN HEADLIGHTS. VEHICLE FELT AS THOUGH IT WAS SURGING. WAS TOLD THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE ALTERNATOR FOR THE 2014 JEEP BUT NOT THE WRANGLERS. AGAIN, LESS THAT 19,000 MILES. DIAGNOSTIC RESULT WAS ALTERNATOR WENT BAD AND BURNED UP BATTERY. BOTH BEING REPLACED AT PERFORMANCE DEALERSHIP IN LAVISTA, NE 68128. I CANT UNDERSTAND HOW AN ALTERNATOR GOES BAD ON A JEEP WITH LESS THAN 19,000 MILE. THE JEEP IS OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY AND WE ARE COVERING ALL COST. SHOULD WRANGLERS HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE 2014 ALTERNATOR RECALL?

CRACKED OIL FILTER HOUSING UNIT. FOLLOWING A REGULAR OIL CHANGE.

HAVING NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH MY TMPS. THERE'S AND OPEN RECALL ON IT BUT SAYS NOT WITH MY VIN. YET IS SPENT MONEY TAKING IT IN AND THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IT IS. PURCHASED USED 01/01/2018

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A TOLL ROAD SMOKE STARTED COMING UP FROM THE FLOOR OF MY JEEP. YOU COULD SEE IT AND SMELL IT. WE ARE TALKING A LOT! THERE WASN'T A PLACE FOR ME TO PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY. THE WORST PART IS HAVING MY 8 YEAR OLD SON IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW SCARED I WAS THAT MY JEEP MAY BE ON FIRE AND COULD BLOW UP WITH MY CHILD INSIDE?! WE PULLED OVER AND JUMPED OUT. I LOOKED UNDER AND THERE WAS A SMALL FLAME ON THE EXHAUST . MY JEEP DUMPED ALL OF ITS OIL AND IT SPILLED ALL OVER THE HOT EXHAUST CAUSING A FIRE. THE OIL WAS BURNING UNDERNEATH MY JEEP. THIS IS NOT OKAY. THIS DEFECTIVE COOLING HOUSING COULD EVENTUALLY KILL SOMEONE. I'M LIVID MY SON WAS IN THE VEHICLE. EVEN MORESO THAT THERE IS TONS OF COMPLAINTS AND YOU'VE DONE NOTHING! I'M EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED CHRYSLER! MY FAMILY HAS BEEN BUYING YOUR VEHICLES FOR CLOSE TO 20 YEARS. MAKING ANY OF US PAY TO FIX SOMETHING YOU ALL KNOW IS DEFECTIVE IS WRONG! AND SHAME ON ANYONE THAT DOESN'T SEE THIS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.

MY 2014 WRANGLER HAS THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS THE JEEP WRANGLER CLOCKSPRING RECALL THAT IS FOR 2007-2010 YEARS. MY AIRBAG DEACTIVATION LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY WHEN I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL OR HIT BUMPS. IT HAPPENS 2-3 TIMES A DAY AND WHEN IT DOES THE AIRBAG CAN BE DEACTIVATED FOR UP TO 10-15 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING THE WHEEL OR GIVING THE STEERING COLUMN A GOOD WHACK BRINGS IT BACK TO LIFE. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS AND HAS BEEN GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE.

OIL PRESSURE SWITCH HAS GONE OUT. MY JEEP HAS LESS THAN 50,000 MILES ON IT. THE OIL PRESSURE IS FINE AND YET I NEED TO REPLACE THIS $45 SWITCH WHICH WILL I'M BEING TOLD WILL TAKE 4 HOURS BY THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE. THIS CAME ON AFTER MY LAST OIL CHANGE. DISCOVERED THE ISSUE WHEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH A CODE 520. PARTS MANAGER STATED THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY AND ON CARS WITH LESS THA. 10,000 MILES.

WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY (ACCORDING TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP) MY OIL COOLER HOUSING CRACKED AND LEAKED MOST, IF NOT ALL, OF THE ENGINE'S OIL INTO THE COOLANT SYSTEM. THIS OCCURRED IN 10 MINUTES AND EXTREMELY OVERHEATED THE ENGINE FROM THE TIME IT HAPPENED TO THE TIME I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY AND SAFELY PARK. THE OIL MIXING WITH THE COOLANT CAUSED IT TO TURN INTO A THICK MUD-LIKE CONSISTENCY THAT CLOGGED UP THE COOLING SYSTEM AND AFTER LETTING IT COOL DOWN I OPENED THE RADIATOR THEN A THICK BROWN OILY/COOLANT MIXTURE SEEPED OUT OF THE RADIATOR. SO THE RADIATOR WAS HOLDING PRESSURE PRIOR TO BRINGING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE OIL COOLER HOUSING UNDER WARRANTY ALONG WITH THE RADIATOR HOSES BUT IS NOW SAYING MY RADIATOR HAS A HOLE IN IT AND NOT HOLDING PRESSURE AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO COVER IT UNDER WARRANTY, DESPITE THE JEEP NOT HAVING ANY MECHANICAL ISSUES PRIOR TO A HOLE BLOWING OPEN IN THE ENGINE AND LEAKING OUT OIL. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO TEST THE ENGINE ANY FURTHER EVEN THOUGH IT RAN FOR 10 MINUTES WITH LITTLE TO NO OIL IN IT WHICH MOST LIKELY CAUSED PRE-MATURE WEAR. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP WANTS ME TO PAY $800+ FOR A NEW RADIATOR. I BOUGHT THIS JEEP 40 DAYS AGO FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND IT'S STILL COVERED UNDER THE 100,000 MILE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. THEY ARE TRYING TO GET MY JEEP OUT OF THEIR DEALERSHIP AS QUICKLY AS THEY CAN BY SPENDING THE LEAST AMOUNT OF TIME AND MONEY.

OIL COOLER HOUSING CRACKED. THIS OCCURRED AT LESS THAN 40,000. I WAS LUCKY THAT I NOTICED IT IN MY GARAGE RATHER THEN WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED FOR REPAIRS. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING IT COULD HAVE CAUSED ENGINE FAILURE. COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY BUT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON THEME WITH THE 2014S. COME ON FCA CAN YOU SERIOUSLY CANT FIX THIS ISSUE. I MEAN REALLY.

TRANSMISSION SUPPLY AND RETURN STEEL HOSE RUBBED ON TRANSMISSION HOUSING CAUSING THE STEEL HOSE TO HAVE A HOLE AND LEAK TRANSMISSION FLUID. HOSE DID HAVE A PLASTIC BRACKET THAT BROKE OVER TIME.

VEHICLE BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY WHILE DRIVING , CAUSING THE ABS LIGHT TO COME ON AND THE VEHICLE BRAKES WHILE DRIVING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE RADIO STOPPED WORKING AS WELL AS OTHER BUTTONS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE STEERING WHEEL. BEFORE DISCOVERING THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT HEARD AN AUDIO INDICATOR AND A MESSAGE DISPLAYED FOR AN OIL CHANGE. AFTERWARDS, THE OIL CHANGE DISPLAY WARNING WAS NO LONGER VISIBLE, ONLY THE AUDIO INDICATOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO ADVISED THE CONTACT TO RESEARCH ONLINE FOR OPEN RECALLS. THE CONTACT FOUND NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V288000 (AIR BAGS), BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE OF THE FAILURE AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000.

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY IN PASSING GEAR THE GAS PEDAL GETS STUCK AND ACCELERATES CONTINUALLY WHILE HAVING TO KEEP LEFT FOOT ON BRAKE PUMPING GAS WITH RIGHT FOOT TO DISENGAGE THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED 6 TIMES IN A MONTH. EXTREMELY SCARY AND DANGEROUS!

THE RADIO WOULD NOT COME ON AFTER VEHICLE START UP THEN WOULD AFTER THE BATTERY WAS DISCONNECTED THEN RECONNECTED. PROBLEM CONTINUED DISCONNECTING BATTERY STOPPED WORKING AND POWER WINDOW CONTROLLS MALFUNCTIONED AND STARTED WORKING AGAIN. RADIO STILL DOES NOT WORK AND WILL SOMETIMES COME ON WITH BRIGHT SCREEN AND A VERY LOUD SOUND WHILE DRIVING. DEALERSHIP STATES NOT A WARRENTY ISSUE. ANOTJER MECHANIC STATES IT IS TIPM ISSUE AND WAS RECALLED IN OTHER DODGES. ALSO ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON.

MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH LIGHTS NOT WORKING, HORN NOT WORKING, WIPERS NOT WORKING OR NOT CUTTING OFF, CLOCK SPRING REPAIR, (ANY AND ALL STEERING COLUMN CONTROLS FAILING)

MY ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON AND THE DIAGNOSTIC REPORT CAME BACK AS THE OIL SENSOR BEING THE PROBLEM. MY JEEP ONLY HAS 39000 MILES ON IT AND THEY WANT $600 TO REPAIR IT. I SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND I FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS A RECALL.

CASTING SAND FROM THE HEADS HAS CONTAMINATED THE ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM LEADING TO MY RADIATOR AND HEATER CORE BECOMING CLOGGED WITH SEDIMENT.

THE FREEDOM ROOF LEAKS ALLOWING SEVERAL INCHES OF WATER TO BUILD UP ON THE FLOOR NEXT TO THE ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE PEDALS FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS I HAVE RETURNED FROM VACATION AFTER THE VEHICLE SAT OUTSIDE WITH SEVERAL INCHES ON THE DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR NEAR THE PEDALS

OIL COOLER HOUSING CRACKING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS CAUSING OIL TO LEAK. GIVEN THE RELATIVELY SLOW BUT CONSISTENT LEAK THIS PROBLEM CAN GO VERY EASILY UNNOTICED BUT RESULT IN CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE AND ULTIMATELY CAUSE ACCIDENTS. IF THIS PART COMPLETELY FAILS THERE MAY BE NO WARNING TIME AND CAUSE ENGINE SEIZE AND/OR PERMANENT ENGINE DAMAGE. PART HAS BEEN RE-DESIGNED MULTIPLE TIMES AND IS A VERY WELL KNOWN ISSUE IN MANY 2014 AND OTHER YEAR JEEP WRANGLER VEHICLES. PART SHOULD BE RECALLED AND VEHICLES SUSPECTED TO HAVE THIS PART INSPECTED FOR LEAKING OIL. IN MY SCENARIO I NOTICED DRIPPING OIL FROM AROUND BOTH SIDES OF THE TRANSMISSION BELL HOUSING BUT UNABLE TO TRACE TO THE SOURCE AT FIRST. AFTER READING A FEW FORUMS I LOOKED DOWN ALONG SIDE THE OIL FILTER HOUSING AND FOUND A PUDDLE OF OIL LAYING IN THE VALLEY OF THE ENGINE. MANY OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THIS VERY SAME ISSUE AND THE FACT THAT THE PART HAS BEEN RE-DESIGNED SO MANY TIMES AND CAN CAUSE SAFETY CONCERNS, I WOULD LIKE NHTSA SO PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS.

OIL LEAKING FROM THE OIL FILTER ADAPTOR HOUSING PER JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. THE ITEM IS BACKORDERED AND JEEP SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE ADVISED MY DAUGHTER NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED. JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD US THAT THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR RENTAL CAR OR PROVIDE A CAR WHILE THE CAR SITS AT DEALERSHIP WAITING FOR REPAIR. NO IDEA WHEN PART WILL BE BACK IN STOCK.

OIL FILTER HOUSING LEAK. $700 REPAIR. THIS IS A PIECE OF PLASTIC THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND REPLACED FOR GOOD WITH SOMETHING THAT WILL ACTUALLY HOLD UP. THIS PIECE FAILED AT 60000 MILES...

HEATER CORE PLUGGED UP WITH UNKNOWN SUBSTANCE OF FACTORY FILLED COOLANT, RESULTING IN POOR SNOW AND ICE REMOVAL OF WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER. 1356.00 REPAIR.

SUMMARY: OIL COOLER HOUSING CRACKED. THIS OCCURRED AT LESS THAN 51,000. WE WERE LUCKY THAT IT HAPPENED IN OUR GARAGE RATHER THEN WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE DUE TO THE OIL LEAK AND HAD TO BE TOWED FOR REPAIRS. IF WE HAD BEEN DRIVING IT COULD HAVE CAUSED ENGINE FAILURE. COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY BUT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON THEME WITH THE 2014S. REQUEST RESEARCH HELP *BF *TR

BOUGHT MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT IN APRIL 2017, IT HAS A LITTLE OVER 44,000 MILES. I NOTICED A SMELL OF BURNT OIL, I HAVENT CHANGED THE OIL RECENTLY. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH IT APPEARS AS THE OIL FILTER HOUSING ADAPTER IS CRACKED. IDENTIFIED AS PART NUMBER 68105583AA. THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE, AND ACCORDING TO THE FORUMS I HAVE READ A CONTINUING PROBLEM. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL ON THIS? MY UNDERSTANDING IS THAT CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND HAS REPLACED THE PART WITH PART 68105583AE. NOT A HAPPY CUSTOMER. I HATE TO SPEND ALMOST 30,000 DOLLARS AND HAVE TO REPAIR IT AFTER DRIVINF IT 7,000 MILES. COMPLETE DISSAPOINTMENT.

AFTER ONLY 50K MILES MAJOR OIL LEAK FROM OIL COOLER HOUSING. DEALERSHIP DOESN'T WANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE ONGOING ISSUES WITH 1000 OTHER OWNERS REPORTING SAME THING. RECLL NEEDED. LARGE PUDDLING UNDER JEEP AFTER BEING DRIVEN

TAKATA RECALL VEHICLE WAS IN PARK NOTICED OIL DROPS ON CONCRETE INSPECTION UNDER THE JEEP SHOWED NO LEAKS WENT TO JEEP FORUM DISCOVERED LEAK WAS AT TOP, THE PLASTIC OIL COOLER WAS THE PROBLEM, OIL DRIPS DOWN INTO A V TYPE RESERVOIR SO THEREFORE WHEN YOU TAKE OFF AT THE RESERVOIR FULL OF OIL NOW BLOWS ALL UNDER THE MOTOR. WENT ON TO JEEP FORUM AND NOTICED THAT THE COMPLAINT HAD BEEN DONE NUMEROUS TIMES BY THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WHERE THE PART BEFORE USED TO BE MADE OUT OF METAL WAS NOW BEING MADE OUT OF PLASTIC SO THE PART IS FAULTY AND NEEDS LOOKED INTO THANK YOU

THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE FRONT SWAY BAR CAME OUT OF THE ELECTRONIC SWAY BAR DISCONNECT HOUSING WHICH DISCONNECTED THE SWAY BAR UNKNOWINGLY AND UNINTENTIONALLY, CAUSING AN EXTREMELY UNSTABLE DRIVING CONDITION. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF THE OCCURRENCE AS FAR AS WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH. THE ONLY WAY IT WAS DISCOVERED WAS BECAUSE I ASSUMED THE SPRINGS OR SHOCKS WERE WORN OUT TO CAUSE THE CONDITION. WHILE REPLACING THE FRONT SHOCKS, I NOTICED THE SWAY BAR WAS PULLED OUT OF THE HOUSING. WE HAD NUMEROUS CLOSE CALLS ON THE FREEWAY WITH NEAR ROLL OVERS DUE TO THIS CONDITION. THE MANUAL STATES YOU SHOULD NEVER EXCEED SPEEDS OF 18 MPH WHEN SWAY BAR IS DISCONNECTED. HOWEVER, WE HAD BEEN ON NUMEROUS TRIPS TRAVELLING ON THE FREEWAY AT SPEEDS OF 80 MPH. I CONTACTED JEEP REPEATEDLY AND WAS JUST TOLD IT WAS A "NON-SERVICABLE" PART, AND TO REPLACE IT, AT AN APPROXIMATE COST OF OVER $2000.00

OIL RUNNING DOWN THE BACK OF MY ENGINE 3.6 WITH 68000 MILES ON IT RUNNING AND SITTING IN DRIVE WAY ALSO ENGINE COOLENT OVER HEATS CHANGED THERMOSTAT DRAINED RADIATOR PUT NEW COOLENT IN STILL RUN HOT PAY A LOT OF MONEY TO BUY MY JEEP FOR THIS ?

CRACKED OIL COOLER RELEASED EXTREME AMOUNTS OF OIL INTO ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND THROUGHOUT ENGINE AND UNDERCARRIAGE. THE OIL SPILL REPRESENTS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR NOT ONLY ROAD/PAVEMENT SLIP HAZARD AND BRAKE CONTAMINATION BUT ALSO PRESENTS A FIRE HAZARD AS IT OCCURS IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT NEAR ELECTRICAL AND HEATED ELEMENTS. AFTER SCHEDULING REPLACEMENT, PART IS OUT OF STOCK DUE TO HEAVY DEMAND FOR THIS PARTICULAR YEAR. AFTER CALLING MULTIPLE PART SUPPLIERS AND DEALERS IT APPEARS THIS IS A VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE IN THIS YEAR ONLY.

OIL LEAK COMING FROM THE TOP OF THE ENGINE - LOOKS TO BE UNDER THE INTAKE MANIFOLD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TIRE PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND REMAINED ILLUMINATED EVEN WITH SUFFICIENT AIR IN THE TIRES. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 14V632000 (TIRES) TO THE DEALER (BARNETT CHRYSLER JEEP, 3430 HWY 61 N, WHITE BEAR LAKE, MN) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO SUCH RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 64,000.

RADIATOR WAS LEAKING COOLANT, DEALER INSPECTED RADIATOR AND CONFIRMED LEAK COMING FROM SIDES OF RADIATOR..I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR PAYING ALL COST..AFTER A LITTLE RESEARCH IT APPEARS THAT THE RADIATOR LEAKING IS A COMMON DEFECT PROBLEM WITH JEEP WRANGLER THEREFORE SHOULD BE REPLACED AND REPAIRED AT JEEPS EXSPENSE.

ENGINE LEAKS OIL FROM THE "OIL FILTER ADAPTER" THAT IS CRACKED. THE OIL LEAKS ONTO THE MANIFOLD AND GETS REALLY HOT CAUSING A BURNING SMELL. IT COULD POTENTIALLY SET A FIRE TO THE ENGINE. I NOTICED THIS BECAUSE OF THE STRONG BURNING SMELL AND THE WHITE SMOKE COMING FROM THE ENGINE.

CORNER OF RADIATOR WAS LEAKING COOLANT, FOUND BY DEALERSHIP ON INSPECTION. NOTED BY THE DEALER AS A COMMON DEFECT FOR RADIATORS IN THIS MODEL RANGE AND THEY SEE IT A LOT.

LEAKING MASSIVE AMOUNTS OF OIL FROM OIL FILTER/ COOLER HOUSING.. OIL SITS ON TOP OF MOTOR HUGE FIRE HAZARD.. LEAKS WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION.. I SMELLED BURNING OIL AND REALIZED MY JEEP WITH JUST 40.000 MILES AND MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL I WAS JUST OVER 2 QTS OF OIL LOW LUCKILY I NOTICED BEFORE THE ENGINE BLEW UP

I NOTICED MOTOR OIL LEAKING FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY VEHICLE WHILE PARKED. AFTER THE MECHANIC INSPECTED IT, IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE A LEAK IN OIL COOLER / FILTER HOUSING AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION I FOUND SEVERAL CAR OWNERS WITH THE SAME DAMAGE IN JEEP VEHICLES BELOW 40K. HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=SRNNEHJCXVY

MAJOR OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL FILTER HOUSING. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND A FIRE HAZARD.

OIL FILTER HOUSING HAS CRACKED AT 36,000 MILES LEAKING OIL ON TOP OF MOTOR CREATING VERY HIGH RISK OF FIRE. HOUSING IS MADE OF PLASTIC SHOULD B RECALLED AND REPLACED WITH HOUSING MADE OF DIFFERENT MATERIAL THAT WONT CRACK . OIL LEAKS DOWN BACK OF MOTOR AN UNDERNEATH VEHICLE GETTING ON EXHAUST . THIS PROBLEM IS OCCURRING WITH MANY VEHICLES OF THIS MAKE AN YEAR MODEL 2014 . HOUSING JUST CRACKED HAD NOT BEEN WORKED ON HOUSING IS FAULTY BECAUSE OF TYPE OF MATERIAL IT IS MADE OF

MAJOR OIL LEAK AT OIL FILTER HOUSING. POOLING OF OIL ON ENGINE BLOCK AND LEAKING DOWN THE BACK OF ENGINE ON EXHAUST PIPE AND THE TRANSMISSION HOUSING. LEAKING OCCURS WHEN IN MOTION AND SITTING. THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND FIRE HAZARD.

MY CLOCK SPRING HAS WENT OUT. JUST CURIOUS HOW THE 2014 JKU HAS AN ACTIVE RECALL ON THIS ISSUE BUT NOT THE 2014 JK. I'VE ALSO BEEN READING ON NUMEROUS JEEP FORUMS THAT MY AIRBAGS WILL NOT DEPLOY DUE TO THIS.

TAKATA RECALL, MY CAR WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE AT A SPEED APPROXIMATELY 45MPH. MY CAR WAS STOPPED 3RD ON THE RED LIGHT DRIVER SEAT BROKE OFF. NO AIR BAGS WAS ACTIVATED. MY QUESTION IS WHY? ALL PASSENGERS WAS SUSTAIN MAJOR INJURIES. NOW ALL BEEN UNDER DOCTORS SUPERVISION. THE DRIVER WHO IS REAR ENDED US FELL ASLEEP.

THE DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK ON THEIR OWN WHILE IN MOTION AND STATIONARY. THIS OCCURS MULTIPLE TIMES AT A TIME I.E. SEQUENCE USUALLY LOCK LOCK UNLOCK UNLOCK THEN REPEATS. THE JEEP IS USUALLY RUNNING.

ONE DAY AFTER LEAVING MY 9 HOUR SHIFT AT WORK, I WALKED UP TO MY JEEP AND COULD SEE THAT THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG HAD DEPLOYED AT SOME POINT DURING THE DAY. NOT KNOWING MUCH ABOUT AIRBAGS I WALKED AROUND THE JEEP TO SEE IF IT BEEN HIT, NO DAMAGE OF ANY KIND. I'VE SINCE LEARNED THAT AIRBAGS DON'T DEPLOY ON PARKED VEHICLES UNLESS THEY ARE RUNNING. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I ORIGINALLY PURCHASED (NEW) MY JEEP. THEY TOLD ME TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE SHOP AND THEY WOULD INVESTIGATE. AFTER ASKING ME IF THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN HIT, THEY SAID MAYBE A RABBIT OR SOME OTHER RODENT ATE THROUGH SOME WIRING. THEIR INVESTIGATION DID NOT UNCOVER ANYTHING (NO WIRING ISSUE, NO CODES, NOTHING) AND THEY WANTED TO CALL IN CHRYSLER ENGINEERING AND POSSIBLY AN INSPECTOR DUE TO THEIR ACCESS TO ADDITIONAL DIAGNOSTIC CAPABILITIES. AFTER I ASKED FOR A LOANER VEHICLE SINCE THIS WAS NOW GOING TO TAKE SEVERAL DAYS, THEY CALLED ME BACK AND SAID THEY HAD PERMISSION TO REPLACE THE "NOW DEEMED DEFECTIVE AIRBAG". THE 2014 MODEL YEAR WAS NOT INCLUDED IN ANY OF THE TAKATA RECALLS, NOR WAS THE ISSUE SIMILAR TO THE TAKATA RECALL OR THE COIL SPRING RECALL. THANK GOD I WASN'T GOING 75 DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE AIRBAG DECIDED TO SPONTANEOUSLY DEPLOY. ITS GOING TO TAKE A WHILE TO GET OVER THE FEAR OF DRIVING THIS VEHICLE AFTER THE AIRBAG IS REPLACED AND THIS POSSIBLY HAPPENING AGAIN SINCE THEY CAN'T EXPLAIN WHAT HAPPENED. 2014 WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON 25,620 MILES VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY (PARKED) NOT RUNNING FOR THE PREVIOUS 9 HOURS AT A SECURE FACILITY WITH 24 HOUR VIDEO MONITORING.

WHEN CAR WAS 3 MONTHS OLD, I WAS PUTTING GEAR SHIFT INTO PARK AND IT POP BACK OUT AND I ALMOST WAS RAN OVER BY VEHICLE. LUCKILY, HAVE OF MY BODY WAS STILL IN CAR BUT IT HAPPENED SO FAST THAT I WAS PARKED NEXT TO A BRICK WALL AND IT HIT EXACTLY WHEN I PUT FOOT ON BRAKE. I DO HAVE REPAIR FORMS FROM RON LEWIS JEEP AND INSURANCE REPORT. SINCE THEN I HAD TWO MINOR PAINT PEEL ISSUES.

OIL LEAK

OIL COOLING HOUSING BROKE AND OIL SPRAYED ALL OVER THE HOT ENGINE. THE SMOKE WAS PRETTY INTENSE AND USED A FIRE EXTINGUISHER IN CASE THE OIL FLASHED OFF

OIL COOLER KEEPS CRACKING CAUSING OIL TO LEAK DOWN MY ENGINE, POTENTIALLY DRAINING ENGINE OF OIL WHILE DRIVING AND CATCHING FIRE. CHRYSLER CORPORATE OFFICE IS AWARE OF THIS ISSUE YET WILL NOT RECALL THE PART. DOES IT TAKE SOMEONE GETTING INJURED OR A DEATH TO OCCUR IN ORDER TO RECALL A FAULTY PART? I'VE ALREADY HAD A JEEP DEALER REPLACE THE OIL COOLER AND IT SEEMS THAT IT'S GOING TO CONTINUE TO CRACK AND LEAK OIL EVERYWHERE DOWN MY ENGINE. THE FLASH POINT OF MOTOR OIL IS 232 DEGREES AND MY ENGINE GETS AS HOT AS 230 DEGREES WHEN PULLING A TRAILER ON THE INTERSTATE. THIS IS BEYOND FRIGHTENING TO THINK MY ENGINE COULD CATCH FIRE WHILE MY FAMILY AND I ARE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE DUE TO JEEPS FAULTY PART.

JEEPS HAVE SOMETHING KNOWN AS "DEATH SHUTTERS" WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND GOING OVER A BUMP. THE FRONT END OF THE JEEP WILL SHUTTER AND THERE IS A LOSS OF CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE

DURING THE HURRICANE IRMA I WAS GETTING THE REST OF MY SUPPLIES AND RETURNED HOME WHEN I FOUND OUT THE STORM STRENGTHENED I WENT TO MY CAR TO MOVE IT TO A SAFER LOCATION AND MY CAR WOULD NOT START. AFTER THE STORM AAA WAS ALLOWED TO TOW MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INFORMED ME IT WAS THE TIPM MODULE SO I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT THAT WAS AND WHEN I LOOKED IT UP REALIZED THEY HAVE BEEN HAVING A PROBLEM FOR YEARS ON THIS WHICH MY MOTHERS CAR A CHRYSLER 300C 2007 WAS APART OF THIS AND WHEN THE CHRYSLER STALLED TWICE THAT I CAN REALLY REMEMBER BEING ON THE OPEN ROAD WITH MY MOTHER IN THE CAR WHO IS 91 JUST SHUT OFF ONCE AT A RED LIGHT AND ONCE WHILE I WAS MAKING A TURN. THIS IS NOT A RECALL ITEM AND MY JEEP IS UNDER WARRANTY I ASKED THEM ABOUT THE CHRYSLER AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY I REPORTED THIS CAR EARLIER AND REPORTING MY JEEP NOW PLZ MAKE THIS A RECALL ITEM FOR I'M ON FIXED INCOME AND HANDICAPPED AND MY MOTHER CAN NOT GET IN OR OUT OF MY JEEP WITH MANY DIFFICULTIES I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THE CHRYSLER ON I75 NOW BECAUSE I'M AFRAID IT WILL SHUTDOWN AND MY MOTHER MAYBE IN THE CAR AT THE TIME SHE WAS BOTH TIMES BEFORE THAT'S WHY I REMEMBER THAT WHEN I WAS BY MYSELF AND IT HAPPENED I WASN'T TOO CONCERNED BECAUSE IT WAS ONLY ME WORRIED BUT AT LEAST SHE WASN'T IN THE CAR PLZ ONCE AGAIN MAKE THIS A RECALL ITEM BEFORE SOMETHING HORRIBLE HAPPENS I'M GLAD NO DAMAGE TO THE JEEP FROM THE HURRICANE BUT WAS WORRIED BECAUSE I COULDN'T MOVE IT THANK YOU

THE LEATHER IS RIPPING AND DETERIORATING THE LEATHER MAY BE BAD QUALITY

VEHICLE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON SHORTLY AFTER REGULAR SERVICE AT THE DEALER. RETURNED TO HAVE IT CHECKED, WAS TOLD THAT THE ISSUE WAS CAUSED BY A FAULTY OIL PRESSURE SENSOR. THE LOCATION OF THE SENSOR REQUIRES REMOVAL OF THE INTAKE MANIFOLD, FUEL INJECTOR'S AND RAILS, ETC., RESULTING IN APPROX. 4 HOURS OF LABOR AT THE DEALER. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THEY HAVE "SEEN THOUSANDS OF THESE SENSOR'S FAIL ON THE 3.6 ENGINE". THERE IS A TSB; 18-034-14 REV. A, DOCUMENTING COMPLAINTS. BECAUSE THE VEHICLE HAS 41K MILES ON IT, THE DEALER WILL NOT COVER THE COST OF THE REPAIR. I CALLED THE MANUFACTURER TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE FACT THERE APPARENTLY IS NO RECALL ON THIS DEFECTIVE ITEM. I WAS TOLD THAT I COULD DO NOTHING, EXCEPT FOR PUT IN A COMPLAINT ABOUT THE DEALER. I TOLD THEM THAT THE DEALER IS NOT THE PROBLEM, IT IS THE MANUFACTURER WHO REFUSES TO ISSUE A RECALL DESPITE THE FACT THERE ARE NUMEROUS INSTANCES OF THIS PART FAILING ACROSS THEIR PRODUCT LINE. WAS TOLD TO COMPLAIN TO NHTSA.

TPMS LIGHT STAYING ON TIRES PROPERLY INFLATED HAD DISCOUNT CHECK IT OUT WAS TOLD . PROBLEM WITH COMPUTER SOFTWARE THEY RESET TPMS BUT LIGHT CAME BACK ON EVEN THOUGH TIRES PROPERLY INFLATED

THE OIL FILTER HOUSING HAS CRACKED AT 18,000 MILES

WHILE DRIVING MY JEEP ON THE ROAD I NOTICED SMOKE. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED ASIDE AND SEEN NOTOR OIL LEAK. APPAREANTLY JEEP CRYSLER K OW ABOUT A PROBLEM WITH OIL COOLER HOUSING LEAKING. THEY HAD A BACK ORDER ON THE PART AND SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS PARTICULAR JEEP MODEL AND YEAR ACCORDING TO MANY JEEP FORUMS ONLINE. LUCKLY I NOTICED SMOKE OTHERWISE COULD HAVE STARTED A FIRE OR COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. THE JEEP ONLY HAS 37K MILES AND THIS SEEMS TO BE WHEN OTHERS HAD ISSUES.

VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHILE RAINING AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS DID NOT WORK ON LOW OR HIGH. UNABLE TO GET PARTS FROM JEEP. WIPER SWITCH IS ON BACK ORDER FOR SEVERAL WEEKS. UNABLE TO DRIVE VEHICLE IF THERE IS A CHANCE OF RAIN.

OVERNIGHT FAILURE WHILE PARKED: STARTED JEEP IN THE MORNING AND DISCOVERED NO INTERIOR DOME LIGHT UPON ENTERING, NO TURN SIGNALS, NO HEADLIGHTS, NO WIPER CONTROLS, NO STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS, NO SEAT HEATERS, NO ESP CONTROL. TROUBLESHOOTING REVEALED A GROUNDED CLOCK SPRING CAUSING CRITICAL SYSTEM FAILURES RENDERING THE VEHICLE UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THESE SAME CLOCK SPRINGS WERE RECALLED BY NHTSA ON MAY 11, 2016 UNDER CAMPAIGN NUMBER 16V288000 ( HTTPS://WWW.NHTSA.GOV/RECALLS?NHTSAID=16V288) ONLY ON RIGHT-HAND DRIVE VEHICLES FOR "CONTAMINATION FAILURES" CAUSING AIR BAG FAILURES WHERE THEY WERE REPLACED AND A MORE PROTECTIVE STEERING WHEEL TRIM SHROUD WAS INSTALLED. IT'S SAFE TO SAY THAT THE LEFT-HAND DRIVE VEHICLES ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME FAILURE AND ARE NO MORE EXEMPT FROM THESE CONTAMINATION FAILURES. IT'S ALSO SAFE TO SAY, I HAVE THE SAME FAILURE AND THE SAME AIR BAG MALFUNCTION THAT, THANKFULLY, I DID NOT DISCOVER. THANK GOD I WAS NOT IN AN ACCIDENT WHERE THE AIR BAG DIDN'T FIRE, OR I WOULD HAVE HAD NEED TO HIRE AN ATTORNEY.

THE OIL COOLER HOUSING HAS CRACKED ON MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. AS PER THE DEALERSHIP THIS IS A PART THAT IS KNOWN TO BE DEFECTIVE AND THERE IS NO RELIABLE AFTERMARKET REPLACEMENT.

LEAK FROM THE MOTOR OIL COOLER HOUSING, ON THE 3.6L PENTASTAR V6 ENGINE FROM A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE OIL COOLER HOUSING WAS REVISED IN THE 2014 MODEL YEAR FROM A METAL PART TO A PLASTIC PART. MINE STARTED LEAKING AT 20998 MILES. THE LEAK IS IDENTIFIED PRIMARILY BY A POOL OF OIL FORMING IN THE "V" AT THE BASE OF THE COOLER HOUSING, AND MOTOR OIL RUNNING DOWN OFF THE TOP OF THE TRANSMISSION BELLHOUSING AND AROUND THE TRANSMISSION PAN (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION). THE LEAK IS NOT A TRANSMISSION LEAK, IT IS AN OIL LEAK FROM THE MOTOR OIL COOLER HOUSING.

NOTICED WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A TRANSMISSION LEAK. AFTER SOME RESEARCH FOUND THAT IT'S OIL LEAKING FROM THE OIL COOLER ASSEMBLY. VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN APPROXIMATELY 30 MILES ON THE HIGHWAY THEN RETURNED HOME AND NOTICED OIL ON THE GARAGE FLOOR.

JEEP WAS TOTALLY DEAD ON 8/9/2017. ..I REPLACED BATTERY AND IT CRANKED BUT NONE OF THE ELECTRICAL CONTROLS ON STEERING COLUMN WORK, I.E. BLINKERS, HORN, LIGHTS, STEREO CONTROLS, WIND SHIELD WIPERS..ETC. (ANYTHING ON THE STEERIMG COLUMN MINUS THE IGNITION SWITCH). I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC AND HE STATED THE IPCM IS BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MECHANIC STATED HE HAS SEEN 3 OFF THESE THIS WEEK ALONE FROM CHRYSLER PRODUCTS. IT IS A 2014 WITH 40K MILES, NEVER BEEN OFF ROUND. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT A MONTH AGO WITH THE CODE P054C BUT WENT OFF AT THE NEXT CRANK UP AND HADNT COME ON AGAIN. WHY WOULD THIS PART JUST FAIL? IT'S NOTHING I DID. SOUNDS LIKE A FAULTY PART.

JEEP STARTED SMOKING IN THE DASH AND THEN CAUGHT ON FIRE. THANKS GOODNESS A PASSER-BUYER HAD FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND PUT OUT FIRE. *BF *JS UPDATED 10/25/18*JB

TODAY HAD ISSUES WITH MY JEEP SMOKING WHILE DRIVING ON SOME TRAILS IN NEW MEXICO. FOUND SOME OIL UNDERNEATH THE MOTOR NEAR THE TRANSMISSION. COULD NOT FIND THE LEAK SO CAME BACK AND DID SOME RESEARCH AND FOUND THAT MANY JEEP OWNERS COMPLAINING OF THE SAME ISSUE. I FOUND OUT THAT CHRYSLER/JEEP HAS BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THEIR OIL FILTER/COOLER HOUSING SINCE 2013/2014. I HAVE ALSO FOUND OUT THAT THEY HAVE MADE 3+ ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR THIS PART BUT HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL TO HAVE ALL OF THESE REPLACED. FROM THE MECHANICS I'VE DISCUSSED THIS WITH THE ISSUE IS QUITE DANGEROUS. THE OIL LEAKS FROM THIS HOUSING DOWN INTO THE "V" OF THE ENGINE BETWEEN THE VALVES AND SITS THERE WITH THE POTENTIAL OF CATCHING FIRE AND BURNING THE VEHICLE AND ITS OCCUPANTS. THE MFG KNOWS THIS IS AN ISSUE FOR THE LAST 3-4 YEARS BUT IS EXPECTING THE OWNERS TO PAY FOR THE DEFECT FROM MANUFACTURING. THE MFG SHOULD BE REPLACING THESE PARTS AS PART OF A LARGER RECALL. I AM CURRENTLY MILES FROM HOME (900 MILES) AND NOW WILL HAVE TO ADD OIL EVERY SO OFTEN TO ENSURE THE ENGINE DOESN'T SEAZE UP ON THE WAY HOME THEN BE OUT PERSONAL TIME TRYING TO GET IT FIXED.

IMPROPER DESIGN OF OIL COOLING UNIT - WEAK AND INCAPABLE OF REPEATED MAINTENANCE STRESSES. SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE WITH LOCAL AUTO MAINTENANCE SHOP REVEALED SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF OIL COATING REAR OF ENGINE, TRANSMISSION BELL HOUSING, AND LIGHT SHEEN OF OIL COATING MANY COMPONENTS ON THE UNDERCARRIAGE. POOLED OIL ON THE ENGINE BLOCK AT THE FRONT, DIRECTLY UNDERNEATH OIL FILTER HOUSING. HOURS OF INTERNET RESEARCH LEADS ME TO MULTIPLE JEEP MESSAGE FORUMS WITH SIMILAR/IDENTICAL SCENARIO. EVERY OWNER FINDS CAUSE IN FAULTY/COMPROMISED "ADAPTER-ENGINE OIL FILTER" JEEP PART NUMBER 68105583AA. NOTED THAT THIS PART HAS BEEN UPGRADED/REVISED TO AN AE DESIGNATION, THUS REVEALING THAT JEEP KNOWS THIS PART TO BE FAULTY AND/OR OF INADEQUATE DESIGN. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY (PARKED) WHEN THIS HAPPENED, BUT ONLY TOOK NOTE OF A POTENTIAL PROBLEM WHEN I NOTICED AN OIL SPOT WHERE I ALWAYS PARK AT MY OFFICE, AND AT HOME. NO VEHICLES I OWN HAVE EVER LEFT AN OIL SPOT BEFORE THIS.

THIS VEHICLE HAS UNDER 20,000 MILES ON IT. HAS NEVER BEEN INVOLVED IN A COLLISION, OR BEEN OFF-ROAD OR RAN OVER OR HIT ANYTHING OTHER THAN DIPS AND BUMPS THAT MY TOYOTA YARIUS AND HONDA FIT HAVE RAN OVER WITH NO PROBLEMS. THE RIGHT FRONT TIRE HAS WORN OUT TWICE AND CHRYSLER SAYS IT IS BECAUSE I DID NOT ROTATE TIRES EVERY 5,000 MILES. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER FOR SERVICE SEVERAL TIMES AND I WAS NEVER INFORMED ABOUT THIS PROBLEM EITHER DURING SERVICE OR WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. I BELIEVE THIS IS A FLAW THAT CHRYSLER IS PRETENDING DOES NOT EXIST.

JEEP WRANGLER EFFECTED. 2014 WITH 17000 MILES THE OIL FILTER/OIL COOLER HOUSING FAILED AND LEAKED 3QTS OF OIL IN LESS THEN 24HOURS. THE OIL WAS CHANGED 5 MONTHS PRIOR TO THIS PROBLEM AND THE DEALER CLAIMED THE OIL FILTER WAS PUT ON TO TIGHT WHICH CAUSED CRACKS IN THE HOUSING AND WOULD NOT COMPLETE THE WORK UNDER WARRENTY. AFTER THE REPAIR I REQUESTED TO KEEP THE PART THAT WAS TAKEN OUT. AFTER CLOSE EXAMINATION AND USING COMPRESSED AIR TO SEE IF I COULD FIND A CRACK THERE WAS CRACK TO BE FOUND. ONLY THING I COULD SEE THAT COULD CAUSE A LEAK WAS A MISSING GASKET ON BOTTON OF HOUSE.

MY COOLANT STARTED LEAKING AND MY THREE YEAR OLD JEEP NEEDED A NEW RADIATOR. THE GARBAGE LIMITED WARRANTY FROM CHRYSLER PRODUCTS OF COURSE WOULD NOT COVER.

JEEP WRANGLER STEERING COLUMN ELECTRICAL ISSUES, POSSIBLY RELATED TO TIPM ISSUES WITH OTHER JEEP/CHRYLSER/DODGE VEHICLES. ISSUE OCCURRED WHEN STARTING VEHICLE IN PARKING LOT AT NIGHT. JEEP LIGHTS WOULD NOT TURN ON EVEN THOUGH LIGHTS WERE IN THE ON POSITION FROM THE STEERING COLUMN LEFT STEM FOR LIGHTS. REPEATED ON/OFF ATTEMPTS, INCLUDING VEHICLE RESTARTS, DID NOT FIX NO LIGHTS ISSUE. WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL WAS ROTATED THE LIGHTS SUDDENLY TURNED ON. OTHER RELATED ISSUE IS INTERMITTENT WINDSHIELD WIPER CYCLE WHEN WINDSHIELD WIPERS ARE IN THE OFF POSITION ON THE RIGHT STEM OF THE STEERING WHEEL COLUMN.

"TAKATA RECALL" I WAS IN AUTOMOBILE ACCIDENT ON THE 23RD OF MAY, A FRONT END COLLISION AND THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY, THE SHOULDER/SEAT BELT KEPT ME FROM MAJOR INJURY.

ARRIVED HOME IN VEHICLE AND HAD A STRONG ODOR OF BURNING OIL. IMMEDIATELY SAW A PUDDLE OF OIL UNDER THE VEHICLE AND OIL ON THE EXHAUST WAS SMOKING. THE OIL FILTER/COOLER HOUSING HAD BEGUN LEAKING. THIS VEHICLE HAS 44,000 MILES ON IT AND NEVER BEEN OFF ROAD. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PART FAILURE AND CHRYSLER NEEDS TO ADDRESS IT. THE AMOUNT OF OIL IT LOST IN A SHORT AMOUNT OF TIME WAS ENOUGH TO CAUSE A FIRE. THERE WAS OVER 1/2 INCH OF OIL IN THE VALLEY BETWEEN THE HEADS AND OIL HAD BLOWN FROM THE MOTOR TO THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL. THIS PART IS CONVENIENTLY NOT COVERED UNDER THE 5 YR 100,000 MILE ENGINE WARRANTY AND THE DEALER SAID THE PART HAS NOT BEEN UPGRADED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH, THE STEERING WHEEL BECAME EXTREMELY LOOSE AND SPUN EXCESSIVELY AS THE VEHICLE FAILED TO TURN. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT A BOLT FELL OUT OF THE STEERING SHAFT. THE CONTACT DID NOT KNOW THE SPECIFIC BOLT. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT NO FURTHER ACTION WAS NEEDED SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,500.
