2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited SUV 4WD

I have owned my Jeep since 2015 and bought it brand new from the dealership. I have replaced the thermostat three times already. Yesterday, 1-21-22, I was driving home on the interstate. The thermostat stuck again, would not open, and caused it to start dumping coolant out of it while driving. That caused the belt to slip and causing me to almost get into an accident trying to pull over. This Jeep has had several issues with overheating in the almost seven years I’ve had it.

A faulty clock spring is causing the air bag light to stay on. It is also affecting the horn and steering wheel controls.

Air bag indicator began coming on intermittently. It was taken to the local dealer and was diagnosed with a faulty clock spring

2015 Jeep Wrangler 66,000 mi on it rocker arms are rattling need to be replaced it's a problem at all 2015 what I understand

I have 2015 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 1000,15 miles on and it has the ticking noise. I took it to my independent mechanic shop. The independent mechanic diagnosed the issue and said that the tick is coming from the passenger side of the Engine .I chatted with FCA to see if they can provide any assistance on this issue they denied even if the vehicle its out of warranty therefore is has to be cover out of my pocket cost.

Appears the Jeep in order to save money has put people in a dangerous issue the vehicle has NO dash light in the day time in less you turn on the parking lights or headlights, I understand that daytime running lights are not required ( SHOULD BE A LAW )there are no daytime running lights so NO dash lights and on a over cast day you can not see the speedometer. I have looked on the Wranglers owners site and appears most jeeps do not have dash lights in the day time the instrument panel sets far enough into the dash you just can not see the instruments. This is a dangerous as you don't know your speed.

My 2015 Jeep Wrangler with 80,200 developed the well know Pentastar Tick. The Jeep would misfire at idle when slowing to a stop light. The check engine light came on and the code was a P0304. I'm the original owner and took it to the dealer I purchased it from. They diagnosed the issue and called me stating that he Jeep needs new rockers and a cam shaft on the drivers side engine bank. FCA has known about this issue since 2012. I called FCA to see if they would provide any assistance to repair the Jeep. FCA refused to acknowledge that this issue exists and refuses any assistance for owners even slightly out of warranty even though it is a manufacturing defect.

While driving on the Interstate in the city at approximately 60-65 MPH, the Jeep Wrangler steering wheel and vehicle started to shake excessively. I initially thought I had a tire blowout. I quickly slowed down and pulled over. Inspecting the vehicle I did not notice any tire issues and could not figure out why the vehicle vehemently shook. We were very scared when this happened and thought we were going to crash into another vehicle/barrier and/or vehicle was going to flip. I typically don't dive the Jeep Wrangler on the Interstate and we were extremely concerned for our safety in the vehicle after this experience. I scheduled an appointment with the dealership to inspect the vehicle. During their inspection, they quickly identified it as steering dampener and was told this is a known issue with Jeep Wranglers, but Jeep does not cover the repair. I contacted Jeep Customer Service to place a customer complaint and was also told they know many instances of this "Death Wobble" but no recall has been issued yet. There were no warning lamps, messages, or other symptoms of the problem prior to this incident.

This vehicle's airbag clockspring was previously replaced under a safety recall in Jan 2017. The airbag light came on again, Jeep was taken to dealership because of major safety concern, airbag may not deploy when airbag light illuminated. Jeep Dealership discovered the clockspring had to be replaced again. Repair was completed by Jeep Dealership on Sept 7th 2021, receipt included. The problem was also reported to Jeep Customer Service for possible reimbursement because of previous recall, but reimbursement was denied, because replacement clockspring out of warranty.

Clockspring failed. Airbag light is on and will not deploy due to clockspring failure. This is known safety issue for Jeep. My last Jeep had to have 2 replaced. I am told there is no recall for this year of Jeep clockspring but when I look online it says that 2007-2010 vehicles and 2011-2016 right hand drive. The recall for the years 2007-2010 started as right hand drive only and ended up extending to all Jeep’s. This one should as well. Obviously they make a substandard product and someone has to die before they recall and fix it. I do not have anything to upload as my vehicle is currently at the dealership and I am told the clockspring needs to be replaced. I live in rural Kansas, the closest part is in St Louis Missouri. It will take 2 days to get arrive and THIS IS NOT UNDER RECALL BUT SHOULD BE!!!!!

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that the airbag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer where it was diagnosed but not repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 226,000

Back in 2015 Jeep dealership sold me a 3rd party GPS theft tracking system. I used the website to access it out of curiosity, no problems had occurred. After the first initial month of installation, never bothered with it again. In truth of it all I had forgotten all about it until 2021 when I was running a dash am wire under the dash. The module is open and exposed to condensation. The module consisting of a small li-ion battery and a circuit board that's held on by velcro. The battery had swelled and off gassed rendering device inoperable. Who nows for how long it's been in that condition. The device is still attached with blown out battery, don't even know if GPS is still operational. I don't remember the company's website or physical address and number. But according to my purchasing forms from jeep the service is titled "MOBILE TRACE". Last time I checked if li-ion and moisture mix unsafe things can happen not to mention the inhalation of the gasses.

Anti-Brake System and traction control lights are both on. When accelerating the vehicle will limp and not want to accelerate

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle started to hesitate. The contact pulled over to the far right of the roadway. The contact then turned off the vehicle and while attempting to restart the vehicle, the vehicle failed to start-up. The contact had the vehicle towed to a certified mechanic who diagnosed that the starter had failed and needed to be replaced. The contact stated that while attempting to run the starter, the vehicle made a clunking sound and it was confirmed that the engine also failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact referenced NHTSA Campaign Number: 13V234000 (Steering, Power Train) as a possible solution to the failure however, the VIN nor the model year was included. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and confirmed that the model year was not included. The contact was referred to the NHTSA for assistance. The approximate failure mileage was 140,823.

First, my vehicle intermittently would not allow me to scroll through the on dash menu, then the steering wheel audio controls began to do the same. Eventually, all steering wheel controls except cruise control ceased to operate including the horn. This was all just inconvenient until the horn ceased to work. Multiple times now I’ve been on the roadway while other cars have drifted into my lane with no way of making my presence known. Finally, my airbag light began intermittently coming on. Within two days, it’s now on all the time. I understand this to mean that my driver side airbag will not deploy in the case of a collision. This is a basic safety function that is not working and is due to a known manufacturer’s design flaw.

Check engine light on, OBD codes P0016, P0390, P0394. Replaced camshaft and crankshaft sensors and problem still persists; limp mode up hills, and oil loss. Per MULTIPLE Jeep Wrangler forums, this is a very wide-spread Jeep phenomenon. Dealers do not know how to fix this. Jeep needs to own up to this defect.

The driver's side airbag deployed/exploded while the car was parked and not in use. Luckily nobody was driving at the time as this could have caused serious injury or death -- imagine if a driver-side airbag went off while driving, prompting a collision with other vehicles and/or pedestrians. The car had not been driven for approximately 24 hours and had not been in any accidents or had any previous incidents. There were no warning lights previously regarding the airbag or any other issues with the car. The car has been seen by Lake Norman Jeep Chrysler (and is still there) and they did replace the passenger side airbag per a recall. They do not know the cause of the deployment. The airbag and ORC module need replacement at a cost of $2,200. The dealer said that Jeep would not cover the cost for the repairs because the driver's side airbag is not being recalled and because the car is no longer under warranty. The dealer suggested we contact Chrysler directly via their customer assistance department. Chrysler Customer Assistance Center (800-247-9753) was not interested in helping us figure this out and in fact, would not let us speak to a manager regarding this situation. They stated that the airbag costs would not be covered as the 2015 Jeep Wranger is no longer under warranty. We feel it is Jeep's responsibility to fix/pay for this defect and it should also be looked into further to see if there are many others, or if this is a standalone case. Some google searches have said some airbags have been known to explode due to heat/humidity. The temperature at the time of deployment was approximately 75 degrees. We are most disheartened by the poor response from Chrysler's Customer Assistance Center, and shocked that they would not let us speak to a manager. Unbelievable lack of concern and service.

The ABS light and Traction control light are displayed. Very common defect among Jeep Wranglers this can affect braking distance and speed control on various roads.

I have a 2015 Jeep Wrangler with the Fiat Chrysler's 3.6 liter V- 6 Pentastar engine. The Jeep has only 44,465 miles on it and now has apparent design and manufacturing defects on the engine's left side , its the Pentastar Tick. The Tick Tick Tick is very loud and the engine will shudder, its only a matter of time before the engine shuts off on the highway when I am driving causing an accident. My dealer Hollywood Chrysler Jeep estimated repairs - need left side cams and full set of rockers - oil filter housing is leaking replace - replace abs sensor - coolant flush - carbon fuel cleaning -fluids service total $6,000.07 invoice # 584685. It looks like the cylinder head, gasket, cams, lifters and rockers need to be replaced. Chrysler needs to disclose these defects. Yes my jeep is available for inspection.

The manual shifting lever for the manual transmission came loose in my hand while driving and rotated freely preventing me from shifting into the proper gear. This occurred while shifting from 1st to 2nd gear while negotiating a corner. The vehicle was unable to be shifted into gear and I ended up blocking the traffic in the intersection. Very dangerous loosing the ability to move forward in a controlled manner at an intersection. This particular intersection was a "round about". Doing a little research online I found many of the same complaints. It seems that a rubber bushing fails and results in a loss of shifting ability. Poor design!

Takata recall. The contact owns a 2015 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 local dealer and the manufacturer were made aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

Air bag light is on intermittently. Running checks throughout my 2015 Jeep Wrangler, the issue resides in a faulty clockspring. After doing research it appears Chrysler/Jeep issued a recall for RHD Jeep Wranglers on faulty clockspring due to dust contamination. Looking over several Wrangler forums, the issue doesn't reside in just the RHD Jeep Wranglers, but also LHD Jeep Wranglers as well. The part is interchangeable for RHD and LHD Jeep Wranglers. I would assume more LHD Jeep Wranglers are manufactured as to the reason the recall wasn't pushed to LHD Jeep Wranglers to keep costs down.

THE HORN IS NOT WORKING AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT TURNED ON ON THE DASHBOARD WHILE IT WAS PARKED.

APOLOGIES IF THIS COMPLAINT IS A REPEAT, BUT I KEEP GETTING A SUBMISSION ERROR NOTICE WHENEVER I TRY TO SUBMIT THIS FORM. THE JEEP 4.0 LITER SIX CYLINDER ENGINE HAS A KNOWN DEFECT WITH RESPECT TO THE ROCKER ARM BEARINGS THAT CAUSES A LOUD TICKING NOISE IN THE ENGINE AND FAILURE OF THE EXHAUST AND INTAKE CAMSHAFTS. THIS HAPPENED TO OUR 2015 JEEP IN JANUARY 2020 WHEN IT HAD ONLY 31,000 MILES BUT WAS ONE MONTH OUT OF WARRANTY. CHRYSLER DID FIX IT AT THAT TIME AS A COURTESY SUBJECT TO A $100 FEE, AND A COPY OF THE INVOICE FOR THAT REPAIR IS PROVIDED. UNFORTUNATELY, A LITTLE OVER ONE YEAR LATER, AND WITH LESS THAN 10,000 MILES HAVING BEEN DRIVEN SINCE THE INITIAL REPAIR, THE SAME PROBLEM HAS REAPPEARED. THE DEALER IS NOW CLAIMING THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE REMAINING ROCKERS THAT WERE NOT REPLACED, AS IT IS CHRYSLER'S POLICY TO ONLY REPLACE THE ROCKER ARMS AND CAMSHAFTS THAT ARE DAMAGED AT THAT TIME. THE SERVICE MANAGER AT THE DEALER SAYS THAT THEY "SEE THIS ALL THE TIME" AND THAT THEY TRY TO GET ALL THE ROCKER ARMS REPLACED WHEN DOING ANY REPAIRS, BUT CHRYSLER DOES NOT ALLOW THEM TO DO SO. OF COURSE, CHRYSLER IS NOW REFUSING TO COVER THE REPAIRS, EVEN THOUGH THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AND SHOULD HAVE BEEN FIXED THE FIRST TIME. THIS IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE, AND CHRYSLER SHOULD BE FORCED TO DO A FULL RECALL OF ALL AFFECTED ENGINES AND PAY FOR ALL REQUIRED REPAIRS. THERE ARE THOUSANDS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ONLINE, YET CHRYSLER STILL REFUSES TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM.

CHRYSLER REFUSES TO REPLACE THE AIR BAGS AFTER SENDING ME A RECALL NOTICE. THEY SAID IT IS TO FAR AWAY.

TAKE THE VEHICLE TO SERVICE DEPARTMENT REPAIR BRAKES WHICH HAD CALIPERS LOCKED UP AND PICKED UP THE VEHICLE BUT THE BRAKES WENT TO NEAR THE FLOOR TOOK BACK THE VEHICLE AND IT IS ROMAINE THERE NOW TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM TOTAL OF 1 WEEK SO FAR ALSO WHEN DRIVING HOME WITH IT VEHICLE HAD TO PUMP THE BRAKES TO GET STOPPED

OIL FILTER HOUSING OIL COOLER KIT - HAS CRACK AND LEAKING OIL NEEDS REPLACEMENT

NOTICED SIGNIFICANT KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM ENGINE THAT CONTINUED TO GET LOUDER. TOOK TO DEALER FOR A NICE 2 THOUSAND DOLLAR FIX. DEALER REPLACED RIGHT SIDE LIFTERS, ROCKER ARMS, AND BOTH CAM SHAFTS. THIS SOUNDS WAY TOO MUCH LIKE THE 2011-2013 ISSUE THAT JEEP "FIXED" AND WAS UNDER WARRANTY FOR THOSE IT SOUNDS LIKE. VERY COINCIDENTAL AND I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE WITH THESE ISSUES BASED ON JEEP FORUMS

STARTED OUT WITH OIL IN THE AIR FILTER, HAD THE PVC VALVE AND CAM SHAFT REPLACED. STILL GOT OIL SO AN OIL CATCH CAN WAS INSTALLED, THEN CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON (AIR FLOW FILTER). THIS WAS CAUSING MY ENGINE TO NOT BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE BEYOND 70 MPH. THEY CHANGED THE SENSOR, BUT AGAIN, WAS UNABLE TO GO OVER 70, AND ON AN INCLINE WOULD DROP DOWN TO 60 AND COULD GO NO FASTER (NO ENGINE LIGHT THIS TIME). NEXT DAY GOT IT UP TO 78, ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, AND AGAIN COULD NOT ACCELERATE BEYOND 75.

CEL ON SCAN FOR CODE PO302 CYLINDER 2MISFIRE. R&R SPARK PLUGS, IGNITION COIL, AIR FILTER, UPPER INTAKE GASKET & CLEAN THROTTLE BODY. PERFORM UPPER INDUCTION CLEANING. FOUND MISFIRE TO RETURN ONLY ON IDLE ON CYLINDER 2. PERFORM COMPRESSION TEST. COMPRESSION SPEC OK. REPLACED PLUGS AND COIL AGAIN. THERE IS A SLIGHT TICK FROM CYLINDER 2 VALVE TRAIN AREA. RECOMMEND GOING TO DEALER. DEALER: ENGINE DOES HAVE A SLIGHT TICK. PERFORMED A COMPRESSION TEST AND LEAK DIWN TEST. FOUND LIW COMPRESSION AND AN 80% LEAK ON THE EXHAUST SIDE OF CYLINDER 2. REMOVED THE CYLINDER HEAD AND FOUND THE EXHAUST VALVES BURNT AND EXCESSIVE PLAY IN THE VALVE GUIDES. REPLACED THE LEFT CYLINDER HEAD, ROCKER ARMS AND LIFTERS. CLEARED CODES AND ROAD TESTED VEHICLE. MISFIRE NO LONGER PRESENT. THIS IS ON A 2015 WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED WITH ONLY 51,892 MILES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE THERE WAS A ODOR OF BURNING OIL PRESENT AND SMOKE WAS SEEN COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO DIAGNOSED THAT THE PLASTIC OIL COOLER HAD CRACKED CAUSING OIL TO LEAK. THE LOCAL DEALER JACKY JONES DODGE LOCATED AT 2840 US-129, CLEVELAND, GA 30528 WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE OIL COOLER PART NEEDED TO REPAIR THE FAILURE WAS ON BACK ORDER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS ALSO NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 44,000.

OIL FILTER/COOLER HOUSING DEVELOPED A LEAK. WAS TOLD BY MECHANIC THAT IT IS MOST LIKELY CRACKED. REPLACEMENT PART IS ON INDEFINITE BACK ORDER, AT LEAST 45 DAYS. LEAK IS BAD ENOUGH THAT I CAN NOT SAFELY DRIVE THE VEHICLE. IT HAS BEEN SITTING IN THE GARAGE FOR 4 WEEKS.

OIL COOLER LEAK. I LOST OVER 2 QUARTS OF OIL AFTER A SHORT DRIVE. THE SEALS WERE ALSO LEAKING INTO THE INJECTORS CAUSING MULTIPLE CYLINDER MISFIRE CODES AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WARNINGS. NO WARNINGS FROM THE OIL COOLER EXCEPT THE LARGE PUDDLE OF OIL UNDER THE WRANGLER AND OIL COATING THE ENTIRE BACK OF THE ENGINE AND SKID PLATE.

JEEP 2014 AND OLDER ARE ISSUED A PART CALLED THE OIL COOLER/FILTER HOUSING WHICH IS PRONE TO LEAKING OIL ON ALL CHRYSLER ENGINEERS USING THIS PART. THIS IS DEFECTIVE AND OR A DESIGN FLAW RESULTING IN REPLACEMENT AND COSTLY REPAIR AND IS A REOCCURRING FAILURE ON ALL CHRYSLERS USING THIS PART. THIS FAILED ON MY JEEP WRANGLER WITH 48K MILES. THE PART IS APPROXIMATELY $300 TO REPLACE AND OVER ALL REPAIR AT A NON DEALERSHIP IS UPWARDS OF $1000.00. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL!

OIL COOLER ASSEMBLY HAS STARTED LEAKING BADLY AFTER 60,000 MILES AND IS A FIRE HAZARD. THIS ASSEMBLY IS TOO FRAGILE AND REQUIRES TAKING OFF THE INTAKE MANIFOLD TO ACCESS AND REPLACE, SO IT SHOULD NOT BE A PLASTIC PART. IT CONTAINS THE OIL FILTER WHICH CAUSES IT TO HAVE TORQUE APPLIED EVERY OIL CHANGE AND CAUSES IT TO BREAK PREMATURELY. THIS IS VERY COMMON PROBLEM AND I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THAT THERE WERE 25,000 OF THESE ASSEMBLIES ON BACK ORDER NATIONWIDE AND HE COULD NOT TELL ME WHEN IT WOULD BE IN STOCK. MY JEEP IS NOW UNDRIVEABLE UNTIL THE BACKLOG IS WORKED THROUGH WHICH MAY TAKE MONTHS. IF THIS WAS A RARE PROBLEM I COULD GET THE PART AND HAVE IT REPAIRED. THIS PROBLEM HAS RENDERED MY VEHICLE UNUSABLE. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND JEEP HAS KNOWN ABOUT THIS ISSUE FOR YEARS ON MULTIPLE YEAR MODELS. PLEASE INVESTIGATE. THERE IS NO REASON THIS COULDN'T HAVE BEEN PROPERLY ENGINEERED WITH A METAL PART.

I I WILL BE DRIVING AND THE CAR WILL GO OUT OF GEAR AND LOOSES POWER. I HAVE TO STOP , TURN IT OFF AND START AGAIN FOR IT TO WORK. THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES IN THE LAST YEAR.

I WAS DRIVING MY KEEP AND STARTED SMELLING OIL AND HAD SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER MY CAR. I NOTICE ON MY GARAGE FLOOR LARGE OIL LEAK. I PICKED UP MY DISABLED SON AND NOTICED IT HAD GOTTEN WORSE. I WAS FORCED TO STOP BY MY MECHANIC AND WAS TOLD MY OIL COOLER ADAPTOR HOUSING WAS BROKEN AND LEAKING BADLY. I HAD PURCHASED A MOPAR PROTECTION PLAN DIRECTLY FROM COMPANY. WHEN I CALLED JEEP DEALERSHIP THEY SAID I WOULD HAVE TO BRING IT AND LET THEM DIAGNOSE IT BEFORE THEY COULD DECIDE IF IT WAS COVERED BY MY MOPAR CARE PLAN. MY MECHANIC INFORMED ME THAT THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS JEEP ENGINE BUT THEY HAD NOT DONE RECALL YET. I CALL MOPAR AND THEY WOULD NOT AUTHORIZED PAYMENT TO MY MECHANIC UNLESS HE CALL FOR AUTHORIZATION NUMBER. HE CALLED AND THEY SAID NO. THIS PART NEEDS TO BE HANDLED BY A RECALL IF IT'S THAT BAD. I WAS READING COMPLAINTS ON ANOTHER SITE AND THEY SAID IT COULD LEAD TO A FIRE STARTING BECAUSE OF OIL LEAKING ONTO EXHAUST.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT NOTICED THE VEHICLE HAD A WATER LEAK COMING FROM THE ROOF RUNNING DOWN THROUGH THE RACK PANEL ON TO THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE FLOOR. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN IT RAINS THE WATER WOULD COME DOWN ON THE FLOOR MAT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE HAD TO REMOVE THE FRONT DRIVER SEAT AND PULL THE CARPET OUT TO REMOVE THE WATER. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PERFORMANCE CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM GEORGESVILLE, 1130 AUTO MALL DR, COLUMBUS, OH 43228, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC AND WAS INFORMED THAT HE HAD A DEFECTED ROOF PANEL AND THE DOOR WEATHER STRIPPING ALSO LEAKS. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE DEALER WANTED TO PUT A WEATHER STRIPPING ON THE ROOF. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT THE WATER COULD CAUSE ELECTRICAL WIRE DAMAGE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT WAS TO TAKE THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 19,000.*DT CONSUMER ADDED MANUFACTURER REFUSES TO REPAIR IT AND THE DOOR WEATHER STRIPPING ALSO LEAKS.*JB *BF

WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE LOSES PROPULSION; THE RPMS GO TO ZERO FOR ABOUT 3 SECONDS AND THEN RETURN TO NORMAL AND ACCELERATION IS REGAINED. NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR CODE IS GIVEN. THIS OCCURRED RANDOMLY FOR THE LAST YEAR. IN JUNE OF 2020 I TOOK IT TO JEEP DEALER WHO WAS NOT ABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM AND SAID THAT NO CODE WAS GIVEN. THEN IN DECEMBER OF 2020 THE ISSUE BECAME WORSE TO WHERE THE VEHICLE WOULD COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN AND NOT REGAIN POWER UNLESS RESTARTED. ON ONE OCCASION IT WOULD NOT RESTART, LEAVING ME STRANDED. I TOOK IT TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO ALSO COULD NOT REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE INDEPENDENT MECHANIC SUGGESTED THAT THE SYMPTOMS SOUND LIKE THEY ARE RELATED TO A FUEL PUMP RELAY, BUT THAT PART IS NOT REPLACEABLE ON MY JEEP. THEY SAID THAT OTHER CHRYSLER VEHICLES HAVE HAD RECALLS FOR SIMILAR PROBLEMS, BUT NOT MY YEAR MODEL JEEP. THE PROBLEM CONTINUES TO PERSIST RANDOMLY. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS TWICE WITHIN AN HOUR, SOMETIMES NOT AT ALL. WHEN IT HAPPENS IT'S ALWAYS IN MOTION. ON JANUARY 16TH I VIDEO RECORDED THE INCIDENT WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE THE ENTIRE THING ON VIDEO THAT I CAN SHARE WITH YOU. IN THE VIDEO YOU CAN SEE THAT I'M DRIVING AT A STEADY SPEED AT 2500 RPMS. THEN THE RPMS FLASH QUICKLY TO 3500 RPMS AND THEN INSTANTLY DROP TO ZERO, AS THOUGH THE IGNITION HAD BEEN TURNED OFF. ALTHOUGH I STILL HAVE ELECTRICAL, AS MY RADIO AND BLINKERS ARE WORKING, THE JEEP VERY QUICKLY LOSES POWER STEERING. IF I HAD NOT BEEN ABLE TO QUICKLY PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY MY JEEP WOULD HAVE BEEN DEAD AND STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY. I THEN ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE JEEP, BUT IT WOULD NOT START. I WOULD TURN THE KEY JUST ONCE AND LET GO, BUT THE JEEP WOULD CONTINUE TRYING TO START OVER AND OVER FOR ABOUT 10 SECONDS BEFORE STOPPING. I WAS UNABLE TO START THE JEEP UNTIL WAITING FOR A PERIOD OF ABOUT 10 MINUTES. THEN IT STARTED UP AND OPERATED NORMALLY.

I GET FREQUENT OIL CHANGES AND I NOTICED THAT THE LAST TWO OIL CHANGES IT STARTED MAKING THIS TICKING NOISE. I BROUGHT IT TO MY MECHANIC AND HE TOLD ME THAT AFTER THE NEXT FEW OIL CHANGES IT SHOULD GO AWAY. THAN MY OTHER MECHANIC THAT HEARD THIS TICKING NOISE SAID THAT IT WAS SERIOUS AND THIS HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH AN ENGINE PART CALLLED A LIFTER. I NERVOUS WHEN HE TOLD ME THAT IF IT'S NOT FIXED THE ENGINE COULD SEIZE. I JUST BOUGHT THIS JEEP FROM A DEALER NOT KNOWING THIS WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG WRANGLERS. I DID MY RESEARCH AND CAME TO THE CONCLUSION THAT IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE MILEAGE BUT MORE SO ON HOW THE ENGINE WAS BUILT. I SPOKE TO NUMBER OF DEALERSHIPS AND THEY FIX THIS COMMON PROBLEM ON ALL AGES AND MILEAGE WRANGLERS. THE ESTIMATED COST OF REPAIR WOULD RANGE FROM $2000 AND UP. I DON'T THINK WE AS CONSUMERS OF THIS PRODUCT SHOULD BE REPAIRING AN ENGINE PROBLEM FROM CHRYSLER. I DON'T HAVE ANY PICTURES YET TIL THE DEALERSHIP OPENS UP THE ENGINE

HORN, AND ALL CONTROLS ON MY STEERING WHEEL WENT OUT. NOT SURE ABOUT MY AIRBAG. I THOUGHT IT MAY BE DUE TO AIRBAG RECALL BUT WHEN I WENT TO MY DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THE RECALL WORK DONE, THEY TOLD ME IT WAS THE PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG ONLY BUT THAT IT COULD BE THE CLOCKSPRING BECAUSE THEY HAVE HAD SEVERAL JEEPS COME IN FOR THAT SAME ISSUE. I WAS ACTUALLY DRIVING, TRYING TO AVOID A CAR COMING INTO MY LANE WHEN I FOUND OUT I HAD NO HORN! THAT'S HOW I FOUND OUT.

THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION WILL MAKE A LOUD NOISE AND POP OUT OF GEAR. SHIFTING IS VERY BAD TOO. THE SOUND IS SO LOUD IT CAUSES MY ANXIETY TO BECOME UNBEARABLE. I AM A SERVICE CONNECTED DISABLED VETERAN. THE SOUND IS LIKE A BOMB IS GOING OFF NEAR THE VEHICLE. ITS VERY UPSETTING AND CAUSES ISSUES WHEN I AM TRYING TO DRIVE. IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND AWFUL.

ARM ROCKERS IN THE INJUN CONSTANTLY HAVE TO BE REPLACED. GIVING THE INJUN A KNOCKING SONG.

WHILE DRIVING THE JEEP SHUTS OFF. IT IS HARD TO STEER AND HAPPENS WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 10 TIMES IN THE LAST MONTH. IT DOES NOT THROW A CODE SO THE DEALER CAN NOT FIX IT.

THE VEHICLE VIOLENTLY JUMPS OUT OF 1ST GEAR (MANUAL TRANSMISSION) PERIODICALLY WHEN TAKING OFF. FROM ONLINE RESEARCH I'VE DONE, THIS HAS HAPPENED TO SEVERAL OTHERS ALSO. IT HAPPENS WHEN FIRST TRYING TO TAKE OFF IN FIRST GEAR. I'VE HAD IT HAPPEN A COUPLE OF TIMES WHEN ATTEMPTING A LEFT TURN AT A STOPLIGHT. I PUT IT IN 1ST GEAR AND WHEN LETTING OUT THE CLUTCH IT VIOLENTLY JUMPS OUT OF GEAR. IT IS LOUD AND SHOCKING AND OBVIOUSLY THE VEHICLE STOPS MOVING FORWARD. I HAVE TO QUICKLY PUSH IN THE CLUTCH TO ATTEMPT TO PUT IT BACK INTO GEAR TO TRY TO GET THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. LUCKILY I HAVEN'T BEEN HIT BY AN ONCOMING VEHICLE, BUT WHEN YOU LOSE ALL POWER TRYING TO TURN LEFT IT IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I REACHED OUT TO A COUPLE OF DEALERS, BUT THEY CLAIM TO NOT BE AWARE OF THE SITUATION. SINCE I SEE REPORTS ON THE JEEP FORUMS, IT IS OBVIOUS TO ME THAT IT IS A COMMON AND DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT NEEDS ATTENTION FROM THE MANUFACTURER BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED.

MY CAR IS AS 54090 MILES, DEALERSHIP CHANGED HOUSING THERMOSTAT AND REPLACED THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING ADAPTOR. STATED MY CAR HAS INTERNAL ENGINE NOISE FROM WORN ROCKERS AND LIFTERS. WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. GOT A SECOND OPTION, MY CAR HAS ROCKER NOISE COMING FROM THE RIGHT BANK AND CAN WEAR. ALSO SOME CYLINDER HEADS HAD TO BE REPLACED. THIS WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE 2012 AND 2013 MODELS SO CHRYSLER SHOULD BE TAKING THESE ISSUES SERIOUSLY AND EXTENDED AND RECALLING ALL 2015 JEEPS TO DO A MAINTENANCE CHECK. I WAS TOLD UPON MY INDEPENDENT REVIEW NOT TO DRIVE MY CAR, TO GET IT HOME SAFE AND SLOW. I HAVE REPORTED THE DEALERSHIP TO THE BBB AND FILED A CLAIM WITH CHRYSLER. THIS NEEDS TO BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY.

WHEN THE 4 DOORS ARE REMOVED AND THE ELECTRICAL CONNECTION IS UNPLUGGED THE BATTERY WILL DRAIN OVER NIGHT TO 5.6 VOLTS, JEEP WILL NOT START. CHARGE BATTERY TO 12.6 VOLTS DOORS ARE STILL OFF BATTERY WILL DIE AGAIN. PUTTING THE DOORS BACK ON BATTERY IS GOOD WITH NO PROBLEMS. BATTERY DIES TO A NO START CONDITION ONLY WHEN DOORS ARE REMOVED. THIS IS WHILE PARKED IN A GARAGE, KEY OUT VEHICLE OFF WITH NO DOORS ATTACHED BATTERY DIES, BATTERY HAS CHECKED GOOD SEVERAL TIMES. IT IS NOT THE BATTERY.

ON TWO OCCASIONS, WHEN PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED FULLY AND DID NOT DISENGAGE. THE PEDAL RETURNED TO THE DISENGAGED POSITION, BUT THE THROTTLE DID NOT. THIS HAPPENED IN BETWEEN SHIFTS OF THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION. TAPPING ON THE THROTTLE DID NOT RESOLVE THE CONDITION. I HAD TO KEEP THE CLUTCH DEPRESSED CAUSING REDLINE RPMS. THE IGNITION HAD TO BE TURNED OFF WHILE DRIVING. WHEN THE IGNITION WAS TURNED BACK ON, THE THROTTLE RETURNED TO NORMAL. THIS HAPPENED WHILE IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE SHIFTING GEARS, THE VEHICLE VIOLENTLY SHIFTED OUT OF FIRST GEAR AND MADE A LOUD POPPING SOUND AND JERKED ABNORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CROWN CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM DUBLIN (6350 PERIMETER LOOP RD, DUBLIN, OH 43017) AND WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE INTERNAL FAILURE IN SYNCHRONIZER CAUSED THE TRANSMISSION TO SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR. THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THEY WOULD COVER HALF OF THE REPAIRS COST AND PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN PREVIOUSLY TO THE SAME DEALER FOR THE SAME FAILURE HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC FAILED TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 42,222.*DT THE CONSUMER STATED THAT CHRYSLER RESPONDED REPAIRS WOULD TOTAL $3000 OF WHICH THE CONSUMER IS RESPONISBLE FOR HALF OF THE REPAIRS. THE REPAIRS WERE MADE ON THE VEHICLE. *TR

AIRBAG LIGHT RANDOMLY TURNS ON AND OFF WHILE IN USE.

MY HORN AND STEERING WHEEL BUTTONS DO NOT WORK. I HAVE NOT BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT, SO I AM NOT SURE HOW THIS IS GOING TO AFFECT MY AIRBAGS.

WITH THE VEHICLE GOING 45 TO 50 MPH ON A PAVED ROAD. I HAVE WENT OVER A SMALL BUMP THE STEERING AND FRONT WHEELS STATED TO VIOLENTLY SHIMMY. WHEN THE BRAKES ARE APPLIED THE SHIMMY ACTUALLY GOT WORSE UNTIL THE SPEED DECREASED TO 5 MPH..

CAR WILL RANDOMLY STALL WHILE DRIVING. IT STARTS RIGHT BACK UP AFTER WE ARE SAFELY ABLE TO PULL OVER. THERE ARE NO ERROR CODES. BROUGHT THE VEHICLE TO THE JEEP DEALER WITH NO ANSWERS. SPENT $1,600 AND STILL HAVE A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE DRIVING THIS CAR.

AIR COOLER FILTER (ADAPTER) - LEAK. COMMON DEFECT IN ALL WRANGLER VEHICLES. DANGER TO ENGINE DAMAGE.

IMMEDIATELY AFTER COMPLETING WORK FROM THE AIR BAG RECALL MY VEHICLE BEGAN TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN. I WOULD HOLD A STEADY THROTTLE AND IT WOULD ALL OF A SUDDEN SPEED UP. IT WOULD LAST FOR A FEW TO SEVERAL SECONDS AND SLOW DOWN TO A POINT LESS THAN THE STEADY THROTTLE. WHEN I WOULD USE CRUISE CONTROL THE VEHICLE WOULD VARY IN SPEED BY FIVE TO SEVEN MILES PER HOUR. THIS WAS DEFINITELY A CHANGE FROM THE WAY IT OPERATED PRIOR TO THE RECALL. I USED INJECTOR CLEANER THROUGH SEVERAL TANKS, BUT THE PROBLEM PERSISTED. THE CONDITION WAS LIMITED TO DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR, BUT HAS WORSENED TO THE POINT OF REVVING THE ENGINE WITH THE CLUTCH DEPRESSED AND NO PRESSURE ON THE ACCELERATOR. I HAD TO CUT THE ENGINE OFF DUE TO THIS UNCONTROLLABLE REV. I CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP TO INQUIRY OF ANY SUCH ISSUES FOLLOWING THE AIR BAG RECALL, BUT BEFORE I COULD COMPLETE MY QUESTION, I WAS TOLD, "NO." MAYBE, THIS ISSUE IS COINCIDENCE, BUT IT IS TRULY A SAFETY CONCERN. I HAVE SEARCHED THE NET FOR SIMILAR INCIDENTS, AND IT DOES NOT APPEAR TO BE VERY PREVALENT. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS JUST OVER 68K MILES, AND ZERO INCIDENTS/PROBLEMS PRIOR TO THE AIRBAG RECALL. I BELIEVE THE STEERING WHEEL IS REMOVED WHEN THE AIRBAG ISSUE IS CORRECTED, AND FOR THIS REASON I QUESTION IF THE ISSUES ARE UNINTENTIONALLY RELATED. *TR

WHILE SLOWING TO A STOP FROM VERY LOW SPEED, ON A PAVED CITY STREET, THE BRAKES FAILED. PEDAL WAS ALL THE WAY TO THE FLOOR, AND SEEMED AS IF THE JEEP ACCELERATED SLIGHTLY, AND THE ABS WAS POSSIBLY ACTIVATING AND RELEASING? CAUSING MINOR DAMAGE TRAFFIC COLLISION WITH STOPPED CAR IN FRONT OF ME. I AM A RETIRED TRAFFIC ACCIDENT INVESTIGATOR, AND WAS NOT DISTRACTED, I COULD NOT RECREATE THE SAME MALFUNCTION AFTER THE COLLISION. *TR

PURCHASED NEW JEEP SAHARA IN 2015 FROM THE DEALER. AS OF THE POSTING OF THIS COMPLAINT, THE CAR HAS ONLY 20,000 MILES. ONLY TODAY, I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER BECAUSE OF PULSATING EFFECT ON THE STIRRING WHEEL WHENEVER TURNING CORNERS (LEFT AND RIGHT) AS IF THE STIRRING WHEEL HAS NO CONTROL OVER THE WHEELS. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT IT WOULD COST ABOUT $6000 TO REPLACE VARIOUS COMPONENTS TO ADDRESS THE STIRRING WHEEL ISSUE AND FURTHER DISCLOSED THAT UNDERNEATH OF THIS CAR INCLUDING THE FRAME WAS RUSTED SO BAD THAT IT WAS NOT WORTH REPAIRING AND UNSAFE TO DRIVE. AT A PURCHASE PRICE OF $35,000 AND WITH ONLY 4.5 YEARS OF ONLY 20,000 MILES OF DRIVING, JEEP IS RIPPING OFF CONSUMERS.

THERE'S A LEAK COMING FROM THE OIL FILTER HOUSING UNIT AND D IT'S CAUSING A VERY NOTICEABLE TICKING FROM MOTOR AT ALL TIMES.

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON IN MOTION. HAD TO REPLACE CLOCKSPRING AGAIN. PREVIOUSLY REPLACED UNDER 2016 RECALL. SINCE NO CURRENT RECALL, I HAD TO PAY FOR NEW CLOCKSPRING AND LABOR MYSELF, TOTALING $593.67.*DT

I WAS STOPPED IN A TURN LANE WAITING FOR THE TRAFFIC LIGHT TO CHANGE WHEN I WAS IMPACTED BY ANOTHER DRIVER AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH. THE DRIVE DROVE DIRECTLY INTO THE FRONT OF MY JEEP AS IF SHE WAS AIMING FOR IT. DESPITE MY FOOT BEING ON THE BRAKE MY JEEP WAS PUSHED IN REVERSE AT LEAST 50 FT DUE TO THE FORCEFUL IMPACT. NEITHER VEHICLES WERE DRIVABLE DUE TO THE FRONTEND DAMAGE. THANKFULLY, I WAS WEARING MY SEATBELT BECAUSE MY AIRS DIDN'T NOT DEPLOY AS EXPECTED IN A FRONTEND COLLISION.

AFTER HITTING A BUMP IN THE ROAD MY JEEP SHOOK VIOLENTLY. I STOPPED THE JEEP TO SEE IF SOMETHING BROKE. WHEN I STARTED DRIVING AGAIN EVERYTHING WAS FINE. I HAD IT CHECKED OUT AT JEEP BUT NOTHING WAS FOUND. AFTER MONTHS OF EVERYTHING BEING FINE I NOTICED A SHAKE IN THE STEERING WHEEL. TIRES WERE CHECKED AND FINE. NO ONE COULD EXPLAIN WHY THERE WAS VIBRATION AT SPEEDS AROUND 55 MPH. THIS HAPPENED A FEW TIMES AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE. A YEAR LATER I HIT A SMALL BUMP IN A CONSTRUCTION AREA ON THE HIGHWAY, THE SAME VIOLENT SHAKING HAPPENED. I WAS IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE NEXT TO A DIESEL TRUCK WITH CONCERT BARRIER ON BOTH SIDES.I HAD A HARD TIME KEEPING CONTROL OF MY JEEP. THE DEATH WOBBLE IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM. IT HAS BEEN SAID THAT JEEP HAS COME UP WITH A BAND-AID FIX. WELL AFTER TAKING MY JEEP TO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WITH ONLY 40,000 MILES ON MY JEEP(MY JEEP NOW OUT OF WARRANTY, I HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY) AND IT COST ME OVER 3,055.45 FOR THEM TO FIX THE DEATH WOBBLE. I DO HAVE AN INVOICE FOR THE CHARGES IT IS NOT ON ME AT THIS TIME.

KNOWN ISSUE WITH JEEP WRANGLERS SINCE 2012- OIL PRESSURE SENSOR BECOMES FAULTY PREMATURELY CAUSING THE ENGINE LIGHT TO TURN ON. IN RESULT, IN THE EVENT OF THE OIL SYSTEM FAILING, THE ENGINE WILL FAIL WITHOUT WARNING. THE PART IS PLACED IN A POOR LOCATION WITH THESE VEHICLES ENGINES.

RECALL WAS PREFORMED ON THIS VEHICLE APPROX 4 MOUNTS AGO... THE CLOCK SPRING HAS FAILED.

WHILE PULLING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY I GENTLY PRESSED THE ACCELERATION PEDAL AND THE VEHICLE STARTED TO GLAD THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT ON THE DASH AND THE BRAKES WERE APPLIED VIA THE ABS SYSTEM. THE CAR LOST ALL FORWARD MOMENTUM . I THOUGHT MAYBE THE CAR HAD JUST BROKE TRACTION EVEN THOUGH I WAS ON A FLAT SURFACE THAT WAS PAVED AND DRY. HOWEVER, WHEN PULLING OUT OF THE END OF MY STREET THE SAME EVENT HAPPENED AND PUT ME IN A COMPROMISING POSITION BECAUSE THE VEHICLE STOPPED IN ONCOMING TRAFFIC THAT I WAS ATTEMPTING TO PULL ACROSS AND THERE WAS A CAR COMING. THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO GET OUT OF THE LANE OF TRAFFIC BEFORE I WAS T-BONED IN THE DRIVER SIDE DOOR.

TWICE, END OF MAY 2019 AND FEBRUARY OF 2020 I HAD SCHEDULED OIL CHANGES DONE AT SAME DEALER. BY THE END OF THOSE DAYS, JEEP WOULD NOT RUN, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BLINKING AND WOULD BARELY START, NOT RUN. BOTH TIMES TOWED BACK TO DEALERSHIP, BOTH TIMES UNDER WARRANTY. FIRST TIME I WAS TOLD A BROKEN VALVE SPRING AND VALVE COVER HAD LEAKED OIL INTO IGNITION SYSTEM. VALVE SPRING/COVER WORK COVERED, TUNE UP AND REDOING IGNITION SYSTEM NOT...? WAS TOLD TO CONTACT MANUFACTURER, THEY TOLD ME TO CONTACT DEALER. THIS TIME(2/2020) TOWED IN, TOOK SIX DAYS TO BE TOLD BROKEN VALVE SPRING/VALVE COVER BUT ALSO A DEFECTIVE CYLINDER HEAD. ALSO TOLD CYLINDER HEAD ON BACK ORDER, COULD BE MONTHS. VEHICLE IS MAINTAINED ACCORDING TO MANUFACTURERS SCHEDULES, DON'T DO TRACTOR PULLING WITH IT, THIS APPEARS TO BE A KNOWN DEFECTIVE, JUST LIKE THE BAD RADIATORS OR HEATING SYSTEM GOOPED UP WITH SAND. THANK YOU.

DEATH WOBBLE AT 45 MPH TURNING THE WHEEL

AT 41,900 MILES A NOTICEABLE CLICKING/TAPPING NOISE ANYTIME THE ENGINE ON. IT CAME ON SUDDENLY AND WHEN MECHANIC HEARD IT HE THOUGHT ROCKER ARMS OR LIFTERS HAVE FAILED . HAD DIAGNOSTIC AND MECHANIC FOUND 2 ROCKER ARMS WERE BAD . THANKFULLY CAMS WITHOUT DAMAGE PER MECHANIC LIKELY DUE TO SEEKING REPAIRS SO QUICKLY

I WAS DRIVING ON A PAVED ROAD AND NEEDED TO STEP ON THE BRAKES TO AVOID STRIKING A VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. MY ABS BREAKS FAILED TO WORK AND I HAD TO SWERVE TO AVOID STRIKING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME. IMMEDIATELY AFTER THIS INCIDENT MY ABS LIGHT AND SLIP LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON MY DASH BOARD AND REMAINED ON. I HAVE THE NEXT AVAILABLE APPOINTMENT ON THE 19TH OF FEBRUARY AT FIELDS JEEP IN GLENVIEW AND I AM UNABLE TO DRIVE THIS UNSAFE VEHICLE UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED. WITH THAT BEING SAID I NEED TO TAKE OFF OF WORK WITHOUT PAY UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THERE WAS NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE SOUND WAS MORE PREVALENT WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED WITH THE GEAR SHIFTER IN THE PARK POSITION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. A DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED HOWEVER, THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

CRASHNO FIRENO INJURIES0 2015 JEEP WRANGLER 90000 MILES STARTED THE DEATH WOBBLE. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY CLAIMED NOTHING WRONG. WE BROUGHT IT HOME AND FOUND THAT THE STEERING STABILIZER WAS HORRIBLY BUSTED. WE REPLACED THAT AND IT WORKED FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS, BUT APPARENTLY SOMETHING ELSE CAUSING THE PROBLEM. DEATH WOBBLE WILL HAPPEN WHEN HITTING A BUMP AROUND 45 MPH AND GET WORSE AT FASTER SPEEDS. IT WILL STOP WHEN YOU STOP VEHICLE AND START DRIVING AGAIN. THIS JEEP HAS NEVER BEEN OFF ROAD.

CLOCK SPRING IS BAD AND CAUSED FAILURE OF ALL ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS ON THE STEERING WHEEL AND HORN NO LONGER WORKS. CLOCK SPRING FUSE IS GOOD. THE HORN DOES NOT WORK AT THE STEERING WHEEL AT ALL. HORN WORKS WHEN DEPRESSING THE PANIC BUTTON. ALMOST BEEN INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WITH MY CHILD IN THE CAR DUE TO NO AUDIBLE ALARM.

MY JEEP HAS A 38375 MILES ON IT AND I TOOK IT THE DEALER CAUSE I KEPT SMELLING COOLANT AND I THOUGHT I HAD A LEAK IN THE PLASTIC ANTI FREEZE HOLDER THEY PUT THE TRUCK ON THE LIFT AND SAID I HAVE TWO LEAKS ON THE SEALS WHY IS THAT THE CAR SHOULDN'T HAVE A LEAK IN THE RADIATOR THIS SOON THE CAR IS NOT OLD THE CAR NOW SMOKES SO I HAVE NOW STOP DRIVING THE TRUCK THIS SHOULD ALSO BE COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY

PURCHASED 6/26/19 W/ 49K MI; TAPPING NOISE DEVELOPS AT 54K; PERSONAL, HIGHLY QUALIFIED/EXPERIENCE MECHANIC REFERRED ME TO DEALER - TAP WAS ENGINE ISSUE. ON 10/14/19 DEALER REPLACED LIFTERS/CAMS/ROCKERS (WARRANTY UNTIL 10/20/19). NOT NORMAL ON VEHICLE W/ ONLY 55K. DEALER AWARE OF CYLINDER MISFIRES ON JKS BUT DID NO DIAGNOSTIC TEST TO DETERMINE WHY LIFTERS/CAMS/ROCKERS FAILED; DID NOT PERFORM INSPECTION. TEN DAYS LATER, CEL WITH PO302 (#2 MISFIRE). REPLACED PLUGS; COIL CODE DID NOT CLEAR. RETURN TO DEALER WHO STATED WORK WAS NOT RELATED TO PREVIOUS WORK THEY JUST COMPLETED AND ACKNOWLEDGED MISFIRE IS A COMMON PROBLEM THEY ROUTINELY IN WRANGLERS THEY SERVICE. DEALER ALSO STATED THE 2011-2013 TSB EXTENDED WARRANTY ALSO APPLIED BEYOND THOSE MODEL YEARS TO OTHER ENGINES FROM SPECIFIC PRODUCTION RUNS BUT WOULD NOT PROVIDE INFO. FILED COMPLAINT WITH JEEP CUST CARE WHO SAID SAME - NOT UNDER WARRANTY, REFERRED ME BACK TO DEALER. NOT ASKING JEEP TO REPAIR ENGINE WITH EXCESSIVE MILEAGE OR WEAR - I AM ASKING JEEP TO EXTEND SAME COVERAGE AS 2011-2013 BECAUSE JEEP HAS NOT CORRECTED THE PROBLEM. NO ENGINE WITH 55K MILES SHOULD NEED THE EXTENT OF ENGINE WORK I'VE HAD DONE WITH LOW MILEAGE. THERE ARE NUMEROUS DOCUMENTED COMPLAINTS OF MISFIRE FOR WRANGLER AND CLASS ACTION SUIT FILED FOR PENTASTAR ENGINE DEFECTS.

INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUE VERY FREQUENT . IT HAPPENS AT LEAST ONCE A DAY EVEN AFTER I INSTALLED A NEW BATTERY. WHEN I TURN THE KEY ON EVERYTHING LIGHTS UP BUT CAR WONT START.

MY CLOCK SPRING IS DEFECTIVE. IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM IN THE 2015 JEEP WRANGLERS

2015 JEEP WRANGLER 36,000 MILES STARTED THE DEATH WOBBLE CALLED DEALERSHIP TO HAVE OIL CHANGED THEY LOOKED IT OVER AND FOUND ONE OF THE AWAY BRACKETS WERE BUSTED. REPLACED THOSE PARTS( WE HAVE NEVER BEEN OFF ROAD) VIBRATION IN STEERING COLUMN AT ALL TIMES AND PERIODIC DEATH WOBBLE THAT WILL INCREASE ABOVE 45 MPH AND GET WORSE AT FASTER SPEED WILL STOP WHEN YOU STOP VEHICLE AND START DRIVING AGAIN

OIL FILTER HOUSING HAS CRACKED AND LEAKING OIL. APPEARS TO BE WIDESPREAD PROBLEM. MANY JEEPS BUILT AFTER 2014 SEEM TO HAVE THE SAME RECURRING PROBLEM. THE PLASTIC HOUSING IS DEFECTIVE.

THIS VEHICLE WAS BEING REPAIRED AT OUR SHOP AND WHEN OUR TECHNICIAN WAS COMPLETED WITH REPAIRS HE WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE DOWN TO BE CLEANED UP. ONCE HE STARTED BACKING UP INTO A PARKING SPOT THE DRIVERS AIRBAG BLEW AND HIT HIM IN THE ARM AND LEFT A HUGE BRUISE.

LAST FRIDAY AFTERNOON (12/13/19) I HAD A SIGNIFICANT BRAKE MALFUNCTION WHERE I BELIEVE THE ABS SYSTEM FALSELY THOUGHT A WHEEL WAS LOCKED UP AND RELEASED THE BRAKES OR MADE THEM MUCH LESS EFFECTIVE DURING A NORMAL STOP (MY INTERPRETATION OF WHAT HAPPENED ' ESPECIALLY AFTER SOME ONLINE RESEARCH). I WAS TRAVELLING AT APPROX. 45 MPH AND THE LIGHT AHEAD TURNED YELLOW AND I PRESSED THE BRAKES TO STOP. THE BRAKES WERE INEFFECTIVE, AND I REALIZED I WAS NOT GOING TO BE ABLE TO STOP IN TIME BEFORE ENTERING THE INTERSECTION. I DECIDED TO RUN THE LIGHT AND PULL OVER ON THE SHOULDER IMMEDIATELY. I THEN PROCEEDED TO DRIVE AGAIN IN A SLOW FASHION AND APPLY THE BRAKES. I HAD THE SAME INEFFECTIVE RESPONSE. I TRIED A THIRD TIME WITH THE SAME RESULTS. I BELIEVE THE ABS WAS BEING ENGAGED FALSELY. I WAS ALONE IN THE VEHICLE AND NO CARS WERE IN FRONT OF ME. I AM CERTAIN THAT IF I WAS ON A CROWDED MAJOR HIGHWAY AND I WAS HAD TO STOP I WOULD HAVE CRASHED ' UNNECESSARILY BECAUSE THERE WAS NO NEED FOR THE ABS TO ENGAGE. THE ABOVE INCIDENT OCCURRED APPROX. 3 HOURS AWAY FROM MY HOUSE IN THE VICINITY OF DAVENPORT. I BROUGHT THE JEEP TO POSNER JEEP WHO CHECKED THE VEHICLE AND RE-INITIALIZED THE ABS AND SAID THEY DIDN'T FIND ANY PROBLEM. I BOUGHT THE JEEP IN 2015 FROM ARRIGO DODGE IN TAMARAC AND HAVE HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH THE ABS SYSTEM AND SENSORS. I STRONGLY FEEL THAT THE ISSUE CAN HAPPEN AGAIN AND CAN CAUSE ACCIDENTS AND POSSIBLY DEATHS IF NOT DEALT WITH APPROPRIATELY.

I OWN A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. IN MID-2019 I NOTICED THE HEATING SYSTEM WAS NOT OPERATING WELL. FOR EXAMPLE, WHEN I TURNED THE HEAT ON, IT WOULD INTERMITTENTLY SEND WARM AND THEN COOL AIR OUT OF THE BLOWERS. ONE 38 DEGREE DAY, IT SENT OUT NO HEAT AT ALL. IN OCTOBER 2019, THE ANTI-FREEZE FLUID LEVEL WAS LOW AND IT WAS FILLED. IN DEC 2019, THE ENTIRE RESERVE TANK WAS EMPTY. NO FLUID WAS VISIBLE IN THE RADIATOR WHEN THE RADIATOR CAP WAS REMOVED. I HAVE OBSERVED WHEN THE CAR HAS BEEN DRIVEN FOR 3-5 MILES AND THEN TURNED OFF, THERE IS A SLIGHT ODOR OF ANTI-FREEZE. IT APPEARS MY VEHICLE MAY HAVE A DEFECTIVE HEATER CORE.

OIL FILTER HOUSING HAS CRACKED AND LEAKING OIL. APPEARS TO BE WIDESPREAD PROBLEM.

DRIVING THRU INTERSECTION AT 40 MPH.WHEN IT SHIFTED IT STOPPED FORWARD MOTION.THE ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN AS I STEPPED IN GAS,THE JEEP WOULD NOT MOVE.. I WAS STUCK IN THE PASSING LANE WITH CARS GOING. 50 MPH. ALMOST REAR ENDED A COUPLE OF TIMES EVEN THOUGH I HAD THE HAZARDS ON. THE TURNED OFF AND THE ON. IT STARTED RIGHT UP WOULDN'T MOVE THOUGH. HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER AND THEY CHECKED FOR CODES AND IT DIDN'T I HAVE ANY. AT THIS POINT THEY DON'T KNOW.THEY HAVE HAD IT FOR THREE DAYS. THEY WANT ME TO COME GET IT..I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS VEHICLE. IT WENT FROM FINE TO GLIDING TO A STOP, IT FELT LIKE IT WAS IN NEUTRAL ,THEN FINE WAS RUNNING BUT NO MOTION I HAVE NEVER HAD IT OFF ROAD. NO SAND OR GRAVEL. IF YOU CAN HELP WITH THIS MYSTERY OR IF ANYONE ELSE HAS EXPERIENCED THIS ,I WOULD APPRECIATE YOUR HELP. I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE A CAR THAT CAN STOP WHEN IT SHIFTS

STOPPED AT STOP LIGHT. CAR STATIONARY. OUT OF NOWHERE ENGINE ACCELERATES ON IT'S OWN AND RUNS INTO AN 18 WHEELER TRUCK THAT IS PASSING THROUGH IN INTERSECTION. I TRIED TO STOP FORWARD THRUST BY PUTTING BOTH FEET ON BRAKE, TAKING OUT OF GEAR WHICH WOULDN'T BUDGE, THEN PULLING UP ON HAND BRAKE. AFTER HITTING BACK TRAILER WHEEL OF TRUCK AND JEEP RAISING BACK END OFF GROUND FROM IMPACT ACCELERATION STOPPED AND ENGINE IDLED.SUDDEN UNINTENDED ACCELERATION. MANUFACTURER DEFECT. ACCIDENT STILL UNDER INVESTIGATION BY INSURANCE COMPANY. JEEP TOWED TO BODY SHOP.

CAR FEELS LIKE IT OVER HEATS DRIVING LONG PERIODS OF TIME & BRAKES TRACTION IS OFF WHEN I HAVE TO MAKE SUDDEN STOPS

AIR CONDITIONER QUIT COOLING, FOUND OUT NEW TYPE OF COOLANT EATS THE EVAPORATOR UP AND DESTROYS IT. MY JEEP IS ONLY 4 YEARS OLD. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THE A/C HAS STOPPED WORKING. THE DEALER SERVICE DEPARTMENT (JIM CLICK) WAS NO HELP. THIS JEEP HAS LESS THAN 20,000 MILES ON IT.

FAULTY OIL COOLING HOUSING, OIL IS LEAKING FROM THERE

VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN COMPLETELY. THE INTERIOR STILL HAS POWER BUT THE POWER STEERING AND ENGINE STOPS. IT RESTARTS BUT ACT LIKE IT IS NOT GETTING ANY FUEL. IT RUNS FINE AFTER IT IS CRANKED UNTIL THE NEXT TIME IT HAPPENS. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS AS

AT APPROXIMATELY 12K MILES I NOTICED THAT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED AND MOVED FROM THE STREET TO THE DRIVEWAY AND TURNED OFF BEFORE IT COULD REACH NORMAL OPERATING TEMPERATURE, UPON RESTART, THERE WOULD BE A PUFF OF BLUE SMOKE FROM THE EXHAUST. THE DEALERSHIP INVESTIGATED AND SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE. AT 20,500 MILES THE VEHICLE WAS RUNNING POORLY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE DEALERSHIP SAID A FUEL INJECTOR HAD GONE BAD AND THEY ALSO FOUND 3 BAD ENGINE ROCKER ARMS. THE ROCKER ARMS WERE REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. INCIDENTALLY, THE ISSUE WITH THE BLUE SMOKE FROM THE EXHAUST DISAPPEARED. AT 28,000 MILES THE ENGINE WAS BEGINNING TO DEVELOP AN AUDIBLE TICKING NOISE. THE DEALERSHIP INVESTIGATED AND THIS TIME REPLACED 4 BAD ROCKER ARMS. AT LEAST 1 OF THE ROCKER ARMS WAS THE SAME ONE (#1 INTAKE) THAT HAD BEEN REPLACED DURING THE PRIOR SERVICING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V018000 (AIR BAGS).

AFTER THE RECALL REMEDY WAS PERFORMED, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT RETURNED THE VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT A DEFECTIVE PLUG CAUSED THE INDICATOR TO ILLUMINATE. WHEN THE CONTACT RETURNED HOME, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AGAIN. THE CONTACT CALLED THE DEALER BACK TO SCHEDULE A REPAIR APPOINTMENT. THE CONTACT REQUESTED A LOANER VEHICLE, BUT THE DEALER DENIED HIS REQUEST. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND STATED THAT THEY WOULD ESCALATE THE MATTER AND ASSIST WITH PROVIDING A LOANER VEHICLE. THE CONTACT LATER STATED THAT A LOANER VEHICLE COULD NOT BE PROVIDED DUE TO THE VEHICLE'S MILEAGE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 106,136.

HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING DEATH WOBBLE WHILE DRIVING SINCE BUYING MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. BROUGHT IT TO JEEP AND THEY SAID THEY NEVER HEARD OF DEATH WOBBLE, BUT WOULD CHECK IT OUT. OF COURSE, THEY FOUND NOTHING WRONG. BROUGHT IT TO A LOCAL GARAGE THAT ENDED UP REPLACING THE STEERING DAMPER. NOW I SEE THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2018 AND 19 MODELS. CAN I GET A REFUND FROM JEEP?

ON AUG 16, 2019, I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM THE VIRGINIA DEPARTMENT OF MOTOR VEHICLES INFORMING ME THAT MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER HAS A FCA US LLC ('FCA US') SAFETY ISSUE RELATED TO MY AIRBAGS. THESE AIRBAGS ARE DEFECTIVE AND HAVE KILLED AND INJURED HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE. THE LETTER STATES THAT IF MY CHRYSLER/DODGE/JEEP DEALERSHIP, LEESBURG, VA, IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THE DEFECT FOR FREE WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME FRAME, THEN I SHOULD SUBMIT A COMPLAINT TO THE NHTSA ADMINISTRATOR, 1200 NEW JERSEY AVE, SE, WDC 20590. THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT THEY ONLY PERFORM 6 REPAIRS FOR THIS RECALL PER MONTH. I AM NUMBER 116 IN A WAIT LIST. THEREFORE, I WILL HAVE A DEFECTIVE AIR BAG IN MY JEEP WRANGLER FOR OVER 19 MONTHS WITHOUT A FREE AND TIMELY REPAIR. KNOWING THAT THIS IS A DEFECTIVE AIRBAG THAT CAN RISK THE HEALTH AND LIVES OF MY FAMILY, THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. I AM SUBMITTING THIS COMPLAINT FOR ACTION TO NHTSA TO ASSIST IN HAVING THIS DEALERSHIP PROVIDE MORE TIMELY REPAIRS FOR KNOWN DEFECTS THAT KILL PEOPLE.

VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE AND BURNED TO A TOTAL LOSS, CLAIM WITH JEEP WAS CLOSED WITHOUT RESOLVE, REQUESTED INFORMATION FROM THE INVESTIGATION AND RECEIVED NOTHING , AFTER SEVERAL CALLS AND NOTES BEING PUT ON THE ACCOUNT NOTHING WAS RESOLVED AND MY CASE WAS CLOSED AGAINST MY WILL AND NOW THEY WONT DO ANYTHING. VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE TRAVELING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH AND UPON PULLING OVER FOUND A FIRE IN THE FRONT PASSENGER FENDER AREA, ATTEMPTED TO EXTINGUISH FIRE WITHOUT SUCCESS AND JEEP BURNED TO THE GROUND

I HAVE A 2015 JEEP RUBICON PURCHASED NEW FROM DEALER WITH OEM PARTS INCLUDING FACTORY TIRES. IT WAS ALWAYS A HARDER DRIVE BUT AFTER HITTING 14000 MILES THE TIRES STARTED THUMPING AROUND 40 MILES AN HOUR AND CONTINUED TO GET WORSE, ALONG WITH WOBBLING, SHAKING AND SLIPPING OVER BUMPS. I WAS TOLD THE TIRES NEEDED TO BE ROTATED EVERY 5000 MILES. I HAD THEM ROTATED BUT IT DID NOT RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. I TOOK IT IN AGAIN AS WELL AS TO A LOCAL MECHANIC. THE MECHANIC SAID IT WAS THE TIRES BUT THERE WAS ALSO SOME ISSUES WITH THE BEARINGS. ALL THIS AT 14000 MILES. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE FOR A VEHICLE LESS THAN A YEAR OLD AND A PRICE TAG OF 42,000 DOLLARS. EVEN THOUGH THE TIRES HAD A LIFETIME WARRANTY THE UNEVEN TREAD AND WEAR WAS NOT COVERED. I ENDED UP HAVING A TO BUY A NEW TIRE AND TAKE THE SPARE SO THAT THE FRONT TIRES WITH THE MOST UNEVEN TREAD WERE REPLACED, AT MY EXPENSE. AFTER I WAS TOLD IF I KEEP THE TIRES ROTATED EVERYTIME I GET AN OIL CHANGE I WOULD BE FINE. THIS WAS NOT THE CASE. EVERY TIME I WENT OVER A BUMPY AREA ON THE FREEWAY I WOULD LOSE TRACTION AND WOBBLE. THE ISSUE HAS BEEN CONSTANT AND THE SHAKING AND WOBBLING HAS GOTTEN SO BAD I CANT DRIVE MY JEEP WITHOUT IT TURNING MILK INTO CREAM. I TOOK IT IN FOR MAINTENANCE AT THE JEEP DEALERSHIP, HAD THE TIRES ROTATED AND IT WAS WORSE THAN BEFORE. I TOOK IT BACK, EXPLAINED IN DETAIL AND WAS TOLD LOTS OF CUSTOMERS HAVE EXPRESSED THE SAME ISSUE BUT THAT THE JEEP RUBICON IS NOT MEANT FOR FREEWAY DRIVING THE TIRES ARE FOR MUD, THAT I SHOULD GET NEW TIRES AND JUST DEAL WITH IT, OR SELL IT. IS THAT AN ACCEPTABLE WAY TO STAND BEHIND A PRODUCT? OR AN ACCEPTABLE WAY TO TREAT YOUR CUSTOMER? THE VEHICLE HAS A DEFECT. TIRES THAT COME WITH A 50,000 MILE WARRANTY SHOULD LAST LONGER THAN 14000. SHAKING, WOBBLING, AND VIBRATING AND UNEVEN TIRE TREAD IN A VEHICLE IS NOT NORMAL. THE VEHICLE IS A LEMON AND A BUYBACK SHOULD BE IN EFFECT.

TAMARA INFLATORS, I'VE TRIED TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT WITH CHRYSLER TO GET MY AIRBAG REPLACED. I WAS INFORMED BY A WOMAN NAMED WENDY THAT I WOULD BE WAITLISTED FOR THE AIRBAG. I WAS PREGNANT AT THE TIME, SO I FREQUENTLY CALLED AS I WAS GOING TO BE PUTTING A NEW BORN IN MY VEHICLE. WENDY THEN TOLD ME THAT THE REPLACEMENT FOR THE RECALL HAS BEEN RECALLED. I HAVE NOT BEEN FORMALLY INFORMED OF THE RECALL OF THE RECALL. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY CAR WITH A NEWBORN OR IN GENERAL.

STABILITY CONTROL GOES OUT AT 70+ MPH OVER ANY DEVIATION IN THE ROAD SURFACE AND NOT JUST A MAJOR BUMP. I LOSE CONTROL OF THE JEEP COMPLETELY AND HAVE TO TAKE MY FOOT OF THE GAS AND THEN IT WILL RIGHT ITSELF. THIS IS A THREAT TO LIFE AND SAFETY AND FOR A FOUR YEAR VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING. ALSO, ALL THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS WENT OUT AND THE FUEL GAUGE GOES DOWN AND UP RANDOMLY, THE STABILITY CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON AND OFF WHICH TERRIFY ME AND I AM SHAKEN TO THE CORE AS I DON'T WANT TO LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AS I HAVE FOR THE PAST WEEKS AT 3 OR 4 TIMES A WEEK ON AVERAGE! THE SPEEDOMETER GOES DOWN TO 5 MPH THEN BACK UP TO 66MPH THEN BACK DOWN AND MY HEADLIGHT LAMPS FLICKERED ON AND OFF ALL AT THE SAME TIME. ALL FUSES ARE INTACT AND SECURE. THEN THE JEEP WOULD START AND I CHECKED THE FUSES AND MADE SURE THEY WERE SECURE AND IT STARTED AGAIN. I NEED HELP AND AM FEARFUL FOR MY LIFE USING THIS JEEP AND HAVE ONLY HAD IT A YEAR. THIS SHOULD NOT BE HAPPENING TO A 4 YO VEHICLE. PLEASE ASSIST ME. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME.

TAKATA RECALL. HELLO MY JEEP IS AFFECTED BY THE VO1 AIRBAG INFLATOR RECALL. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS AND THE AIR BAGS IN MY JEEP CAN SERIOUSLY HARM OR KILL ME OR SOMEONE ELSE. I ATTEMPTED TO TAKE MY JEEP IN TO HAVE THE RECALL PERFORMED BUT I AM TOLD CHRYSLER HAS PLACED A PARTS FREEZE ON ALL AIR BAGS FOR MY JEEP. I ASKED WHEN THIS WILL BE RESOLVED AND HAVE BEEN TOLD SEVERAL TIMES BY LOCAL DEALERSHIPS AND CHRSYLER THAT IT WILL BE ABOUT 4 MONTHS. THEY SAID THEY HAVE NO OTHER ANSWERS. HOW CAN I NOT DRIVE MY VEHICLE FOR 4 MONTHS. THAT IS ABSOLUTELY NOT ACCEPTABLE. HOW CAN THERE BE A PARTS FREEZE FOR VEHICLES THAT ARE UNSAFE AND POTENTIALLY DEADLY. NOT BEING ABLE TO DRIVE YOUR VEHICLE TO AND FROM WORK IS ALSO A ECONOMICAL BURDEN. I NEED THIS RECALL PERFORMED AS SOON AS POSSIBLE. WHAT IS BEING DONE ABOUT THIS. THIS COULD EASILY LEAD TO LAW SUITS. IT IS NOT REALISTIC TO JUST TELL PEOPLE TO NOT DRIVE THEIR VEHICLES. CAN THE NHTSA PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS AND GET BACK TO ME. THANK YOU IN ADVANCE!

HOOD VIOLENTLY FLUTTERS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. HAD TO PULL OVER. HAD TO PURCHASE AFTER MARKET STURDY HOOD LATCHES TO REPLACE THE FACTORY ONES.

TIPM FAILURE WHILE DRIVING ON FREEWAY. HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES OUT OF THE BLUE THE VEHICLE LOSES POWER, THE PANEL LIGHTS FLASH, AND THE BRAKES LOCKUP. IF NOT FOR THE ANTI LOCKUP SYSTEM ON THE BREAKS I WOULD HAVE BEEN HIT. VEHICLE PANEL WARNING LIGHTS STAYED ON AFTER INCIDENT, WHEN GET IN VEHICLE THE NEXT DAY EVERYTHING WORKS NORMAL.

MY JEEP STOPS RESPONDING AND SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING FOR NO REASON. WHEN IT HAPPENS AT SLOWER SPEEDS, I HAVE TO PUT IT IN PARK, TURN THE KEY TO OFF, AND THEN START IT BACK UP AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS WHILE I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. IF I AM TRAVELING AT A FASTER SPEED, THE ENGINE WILL KICK BACK ON ON ITS OWN. IT HAS BEEN HAPPING FOR ABOUT A YEAR.

PASSENGER SIDE SEATBELT WILL NOT RETRACT. REQUIRES A NEW RETRACTOR MECHANISM.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE DEALER STATED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE REPAIR. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 50-60 MPH, THE CONTACT STRUCK A BUMP IN THE ROAD AND THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO TREMBLE AND SHAKE. THE VEHICLE WOBBLED TERRIBLY. THE CONTACT HAD TO SLOW DOWN SO THE WOBBLING COULD STOP. THE CONTACT DROVE THE VEHICLE TO JACKSONVILLE CHRYSLER DODGE (9600 ATLANTIC BLVD, JACKSONVILLE, FL 32225, (877) 677-5782) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE TEST COULD NOT REPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE ANDDID NOT ASSIST. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,000.

THE VEHICLE'S HORN AND STEERING CONTROLS, EXCEPT CRUISE CONTROL, ALL STOPPED WORKING. I WAS TOLD THE CLOCK SPRING IS BAD AND JEEP DID HAVE A RECALL ON THE CLOCK SPRING FOR 2007-2010 MODEL YEAR JEEPS AS WELL AS SOME 2011-2016 RIGHT HAND DRIVE JEEPS. IF YOU ALSO LOOK THROUGH JEEP FORUMS, THIS STILL SEEMS TO BE A CONSISTENT PROBLEM. THE HORN IS A NECESSARY SAFETY FEATURE AND SHOULDN'T BE FAILING WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW A LITTLE OVER 3 YEARS AGO.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER.

PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR

THERE HAVE BEEN 1000S OF PEOPLE WHO DRIVE WRANGLERS COMPLAIN OF THE STEERING CLUNK WHEN DRIVING. WHEN THE JEEP WARMS UP AND THE SUSPENSION CYCLES YOU CAN FEEL A THUD IIN THE STEERING COLUMN SOMEWHERE. IT MAKES YOU FEEL VERY UNEASY AND SCARED NOT KNOWING WHEN THE STEERINT SHAFT WILL FINALLY GO. MOST PROBLEMS RESULT FROM THE LOWER AND UPPER INTERMEDIATE SHAFT BEING MADE FROM 2 SEPARATE METALS AND EXPANDING. JEEP LOCATED THESE NEAR THE MANIFOLD. THE REPLACEMENT PART IS ALWAYS ON BACKORDER SO JEEP MUST KNOW THERE'S ANPROBLEM SOMEWHERE.

I RECEIVED A LETTER INFORMING ME OF THE RECALL BUT THE DEALERSHIPS IN MY AREA WILL NOT HONOR IT.

THE SWAY BAR DOES NOT STAY LOCKED HAS NOT SINCE I GOT THE JEEP RUBICON NEW IN 2015 AND I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET THE DEALER WHERE I GOT THE JEEP FROM TO FIX IT. THERE IS A SWITCH ON THE DASH TO LOCK AND UNLOCK THE SWAY BAR AND A LIGHT ON THE DASH THAT SAYS THAT THE SWAY BAR IS UNLOCKED, THE LIGHT IS NOT ON BUT THE SWAY BAR IS UNLOCKED AND THE JEEP IS VERY UNSTABLE WHEN TRYING TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY AND EVEN THE STREET IT VERY BOUNCY AND WHEN TURNING A COUNTER AT A NORMAL RATE OF SPEED THE TIRES COME OFF THE GROUND. THE SWAY BAR WILL NOT LOCK NO MATTER WHAT WE DO IT JUST COMES UNLOCKED AS SOON AS I START DRIVING. IT IS VERY UNSAFE. HAVING THE SWAY BAR UNLOCKED IS FOR OFF-ROAD OR ROCK CRAWLING NOT DRIVING ON THE NORMAL ROAD OR HIGHWAY.

MY JEEP CAUGHT FIRE FROM THE DASH, REASONS UNKNOWN. INSURANCE IS INVESTIGATING AND FIRE DEPT PUT CAUSE AS UNKNOWN. JEEP IS A TOTAL LOSS AND MY HUSBAND BARELY MADE IT OUT OF THE VEHICLE BEFORE IT WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. HE WAS DRIVING FROM SCHOOL TO HOME AND ABOUT A MILE FROM HOME ON THE HIGHWAY ABOUT TO EXIT.*DT CONSUMER STATED AS HE WAS TRYING TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL AND PULL THE E-BRAKE, HE WAS BURNT ON HIS HAND AND A LITTLE ON HIS LEGS BY THE TIME HE JUMPED OUT. ON THE DAY OF THE INCIDENT, MY HUSBAND DROVE APPROXIMATELY 5-6 MILES TO CLASS (AS HE IS IN A TECHNICAL SCHOOL RIGHT NOW) AROUND 6:30 AM. AS HE WAS COMING HOME, IT STARTED SMOKING ABOUT HALF WAY UP THE ON RAMP HEADING IN THE DIRECTION TO THE EXIT TO OUR HOME, MY HUSBAND SAID RIGHT BEFORE IT STARTED SMOKING IT ALMOST SOUND LIKE THAT BLOWER MOTOR WAS MAKING A STRANGE NOISE, AND HE WAS HEADED HOME TO LOOK AT IT, BUT THE NOISE QUIT RIGHT BEFORE IT STARTED SMOKING. HE DID HIS BEST TO GET IT OUT OF TRAFFIC, BUT AS I STATED, WITH IT BEING A SOFT TOP, IT WENT UP IN FLAMES RATHER QUICK. THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED EVERY 4,000-5,000 MILES. MY HUSBAND HAS A MOTORCYCLE, SO THE TIME SPENT IN THE JEEP WAS MAINLY IN COOLER WEATHER OR WHEN IT WAS RAINING/OVERCAST. THERE WERE NOT ISSUE LEADING UP TO THE FIRE. WE HAD TAKEN IT ON SHORT TRIPS - LONGEST DISTANCE WAS LIKE 100 MILES ROUND TRIP, BUT HADN'T DONE THAT IN AWHILE. THE VEHICLE WAS A TOTAL LOSS, STATE FARM TOTALED THE VEHICLE, WE HAVE NOT HAD POSSESSION OF THE JEEP SINCE IT WAS TOWED FROM THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BY WHOEVER THE FIRE DEPT CALLED (ALLIED TOWING). AFTER THAT INSURANCE HAD IT TOWED TO A LOCATION OF THEIR OWN. I BELIEVE MY HUSBAND ONLY HAD A SUB WOOFER IN THE JEEP, YOU CAN SEE IT IN THE BACK IN SOME OF THE PICTURES. I BELIEVE AT SOME POINT THE STEREO WAS CHANGED BUT THAT WAS BEFORE WE OWNED IT AND IT WAS IN OUR POSSESSION FOR ALMOST 1 YEAR PRIOR TO THE FIRE. I HAVE NO CONTACTED THE FCA, I WASN'T SURE WHO TO REACH OUT TO FOR THIS ISSUE.*JB

SATURDAY MORNING AT APPROXIMATELY 10:45 A.M. DRIVING 4.9 MILES TO DESTINATION I ASKED AS WE WERE APPROACHING PARKING "DO YOU SMELL SMOKE?" I HIT THE BREAKS BUT THERE WAS NO BREAKS. AND THEN A COMBUSTION OF FLAMES CAME FROM WHEEL WELLS AND HOOD OF JEEP. WE ALL JUMPED OUT AND CALLED 911 AND TRIED TO PUT FIRE OF JEEP OUT WITH EXTINGUISHERS. WITH NO SUCCESS. FIRE DEPARTMENT PUT FIRE OUT.

STEERING WHEEL HORN ASSEMBLY. THIS UNIT TAKE AN UNUSUAL AMOUNT OF PRESSURE TO MAKE THE HORN SOUND. THIS HAS BEEN A PROBLEM SINCE THE CAR WAS NEW. IN ADDITION THE HORN ASSEMBLY VIBRATES WHEN TURNING. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR TO A ALAMOGORDO, NEW MEXICO DEALER AND GALVESTON , TEXAS DEALER TO HAVE THE PROBLEM INVESTIGATED. THEY TOLD ME THIS WAS NORMAL. THIS OCCURRED SINCE THE CAR WAS NEW AND CONTINUES TODAY AT 45,000 MILES. I AM CONCERNED SOMETHING IS FAULTY WITH THE HORN AND AIRBAG ASSEMBLY

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, ALL THE INSTRUMENT PANEL GAUGES ILLUMINATED AND THE BRAKE PEDAL FELT SOFT. THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN AND THE CONTACT SMELLED SMOKE. THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE OVER, OPENED THE DOOR, AND THE FIRE SPREAD. THE CONTACT HAD TO QUICKLY EXIT THE VEHICLE. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THE FIRE DEPARTMENT EXTINGUISHED THE FIRE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A SALVAGE YARD AND DEEMED DESTROYED BY THE CONTACT'S INSURANCE COMPANY. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURES WAS UNKNOWN. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 59,000.

WHEN ABS LIGHT, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT, AND DOWN HILL ASSIST LIGHT COMES ON AT THE SAME TIME WHILE DRIVING THE BRAKES LOCK UP. ALL THESE LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE BRAKES STARTED LOCKING UP WHILE GOING 50-60 MPH. THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND NOW I HAVE TO GET MY JEEP TOWED BECAUSE IT WILL NOT ALLOW ME TO GO.

WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY WHEN THE PASSENGER SIDE HAD A LITTLE BIT OF SMOKE, PULLED OVER AND THERE WAS A SMALL FIRE, MULTIPLE FIRE EXTINGUISHERS FAILED TO PUT OUT THE FIRE AND IT SPREAD ENGULFING THE ENTIRE JEEP AND POP UP CAMPER UNTIL THEY WERE BOTH TOTAL LOSSES

RADIATOR LEAKING COOLANT ON DRIVER SIDE TANK. I'VE SMELLED COOLANT SINCE NEW BUT NEVER SEEN A LEAK UNTIL WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. I CURRENTLY HAVE LESS THAN 30,000MI CONTACTED DEALER AND WAS TOLD SIMPLY NO WARRANTY. READING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM ONLINE SEEMS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE.

THE SEAT BELT BROKE LOOSE FROM THE FLOOR. THE METAL PART THAT WAS SCREWED TO THE FLOOR ACTUALLY BROKE AWAY FROM THE SCREW. LESS THAN 47,000 MILES. BUT I THINK THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND A SEAT BELT SHOULD NEVER BREAK!! I WAS SITTING STILL SIMPLY PUTTING ON MY BELT. *DT *DT*JB *DT *DT *DT *TR *DT*JB

DISTRACTING GRIND AND SEVERE GEARSHIFT VIBRATION DURING THE 1ST GEAR TO 2ND GEAR UP SHIFT. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE GEAR SHIFT LEVER WILL VIOLENTLY COME OFF. THE GRINDING IS EXTREMELY DISTRACTING TO THE DRIVER AS GEARS MOVING AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS COME VIOLENTLY TO STOP AS OPPOSED SMOOTHLY MESHING TOGETHER. THE SHIFTING OPERATION PRODUCES A SENSATION THAT REVERBERATES UP THE HAND AND ARM CAUSING A DISTRACTING JOLT TO THE DRIVER. AT THIS TIME, ALL THE OTHER UP SHIFTS ARE NORMAL, MAKING THE 1ST TO 2ND GEAR UP SHIFT ASYMMETRICALLY DIFFERENT THAN ALL THE OTHER UP SHIFTS. THIS HAPPENS REGULARLY REGARDLESS OF AMBIENT TEMPERATURE, GRADE, OR FAST, SLOW, OR RAPID SHIFTING MAKING THE VEHICLE A NUISANCE AND A SAFETY HAZARD TO DRIVE.

TAKATA RECALL - SCHEDULED APPOINTMENT AT DEALERSHIP TO DEAL WITH TAKATA RECALL. I RECEIVED A CALL BACK STATING THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO PUT ME ON A WAIT LIST THAT COULD BE MONTHS FOR THE PART TO BE IN STOCK SO I COULD HAVE THE REPAIR DONE.

SIGNIFICANT OIL LEAKING FROM OIL COOLANT HOUSING ON THE ENGINE. ENGINE STARTED SMOKING THOUGHT IT WAS ON FIRE. SHUT OFF CAR IMEDIATELY AND SENT CAR TO DEALERSHIP

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT IS ON AND OTHER FUNCTIONS ON STEERING WHEEL STOPPED WORKING .DEALERSHIP MECHANIC SAYS ONGOING PROBLEM WITH JEEPS. SAYS DRIVE VERY CARFULLY BECAUSE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY WHEN LIGHT IS ON. CLOCK SPRING HAS BEEN RECALLED ON MANY JEEP WRANGLERS. THANK YOU.

TOOK JEEP BACK TO DEALER BECAUSE I DID NOT HAVE HEAT. THEY SAID RADIATOR HAD HOLE IN IT AND HEATING CORE WAS BAD. THATS CRAZY FOR A 2015 THAT I TAKE VERY GOOD CARE OF. IT WAS ALWAYS BAD. THE ONLY HEAT THAT WORKED WAS FULL ON RED DOT. IF I MOVED IT ONE NOTCH UP/COLDER IT WOULD TURN COLD. I NEVER HAD HEAT COMING OUT OF THE DUCT NEAR THE DRIVER WINDOW. ALWAYS COLD. I PURCHASED AT BOB & CHUCK EDDY AUSTINTOWN OHIO. IT'S NOW JIM SHORKEY DEALERSHIP. MY PROBLEM IS I DRIVE ALOT AND HAVE 160K MILES ON MY JEEP. THESE ITEMS SHOULD NOT BE GOING BAD THIS QUICKLY. I STILL OWE OVER 13K FOR THE JEEP. NOW THIS IS COSTING ME OVER 2K FOR THIS FIX.

THE HORN ON MY WRANGLER HAS BEEN VERY STIFF SINCE DAY ONE. YOU HAVE TO REALLY PUSH DARN HARD ON IT TO ACTIVATE THE SOUND, SO MUCH THAT IT IS A REAL SAFETY CONCERN. A COUPLE TIMES I WAS VERY CLOSE TO BEING HIT AND I SINCERELY BELIEVE THAT THE DELAY IN BEING ABLE TO BEEP QUICKLY IS A MAJOR CONCERN. I READ ON A JEEP WRANGLER FORUM THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THAT MANY OTHERS HAVE AS WELL. I WILL BE BRINGING THIS TOPIC UP AT MY NEXT SERVICE BUT HONESTLY THIS INABILITY TO DO A QUICK BEEP COULD BE THE DIFFERENCE IN SAVING LIVES. I ENTERED TODAY'S DATE FOR 'WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN' BUT THIS HAS COME UP A FEW TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF OWNING THE CAR. THANK YOU FOR LISTENING. *TR

CRACKED AND LEAKING OIL COOLER HOUSING

MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER WITH LESS THAN 36,000 MILES (CURRENT MILEAGE IS 31,000) DEVELOPED A HOLE IN THE UPPER RIGHT (FACING THE VEHICLE) ON THE RADIATOR. ONLY FACTORY AUTHORIZED ANTIFREEZE WAS IN THE COOLING SYSTEM. IN FACT, THE COOLANT HAD NEVER BEEN TOUCHED SINCE PURCHASING IT NEW APRIL 17TH, 2015. THIS PAST FALL I KNEW I HAD A LEAK AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. THEY SAID IT WAS LEAKING OIL AROUND MY OIL FILTER AND ENDED UP CHARGING ME $46.00 FOR AN OIL CHANGE; HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC (PETE) COULD NOT EXPLAIN THE LEAK. I FELT THE FLUID ON MY GARAGE FLOOR WITH MY FINGERS AND HONESTLY THOUGHT IS WAS PART OIL AND ANTIFREEZE. NOW, ON WEDNESDAY DECEMBER 26, 2018 THEY ARE GOING TO REPLACE THE RADIATOR AND THE DEALER'S ESTIMATE WAS APPROXIMATELY $800.00 DOLLARS. IN SHORT, NO RADIATOR SHOULD BLOW A HOLE IN THE SIDEWALL OF THE RADIATOR WITH SO FEW MILES AND TIME.

STEERING WHEEL ELECTRONICS FAILURE. LIKELY DUE TO CLOCK SPRING.

NO AIR BAGS DEPLOYED DURING COLLISION. JEEP T-BONED VEHICLE THAT PULLED OUT FROM A STOP SIGN. OTHER CARS AIR BAGS COMPLETELY DEPLOYED WITH IMPACT. FRAME DAMAGE OCCURRED SINCE THE FRONT PUSHED IN HARD ENOUGH TO BEND CORNER OF DRIVER DOOR.

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING THE "DEATH WOBBLE" THE FIRST TIME WHEN IT WAS ONLY A YEAR OLD WITH 10,000 MILES. IT WAS BRIEF AND I ATTRIBUTED THE ISSUE TO ROAD CONDITIONS. IT HAPPENED AGAIN AROUND 20,00 MILES. IT WAS BRIEF AND AGAIN ON THE SAME FREEWAY ATTRIBUTED TO ROAD CONDITIONS. I RECENTLY EXPERIENCED IT AGAIN AT 39,000 MILES - IT WAS SO SEVERE, AND VIOLENT, SHAKING THE ENTIRE VEHICLE- IT WAS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT AT THE DEALERSHIP. THE DIAGNOSIS WAS A CRACKED DRAG LINK ASSEMBLY, NEED FRONT STABILIZER SHOCKS, AND REAR SHOCKS. ON TOP OF THAT THEY SAID THERE IS A CRACK IN THE RADIATOR, BELIEVED TO BE FROM THE VIOLENT SHAKING. IT'S NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY, WITH ONLY 39,000 MILES - 3,000 MILES OVER AND THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING. I HAVE BEEN A LONG TIME CUSTOMER AT PLANET JEEP IN FLAGSTAFF, AZ. THIS HAS BEEN A HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE. I WILL NEVER GO BACK THERE AND WON'T RECOMMEND.

INTERMITTENT STALLING HAS OCCURRED 4 TIMES WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION DRIVING STRAIGHT. 3 TIMES OCCURRED ON CITY STREETS AND 1 OF THE 4 TIMES WAS WHILE MERGING INTO TRAFFIC ON AN INTERSTATE AT INTERSTATE SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED 3 TIMES AFTER STOPPING AND PLACING THE VEHICLE INTO PARK AND CRANKING FOR ABOUT 5-10 SECONDS. THE LAST TIME, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART IMMEDIATELY AND TOOK AROUND 2 HOURS TO RESTART. THERE WAS NO WARNING PRIOR TO EACH TIME, NO STUTTERING, ROUGH IDLE, ACCELERATION, DECELERATIONS, ETC. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE REPORTED CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR FAILURE, BUT TESTING COULD FIND NO ISSUES EACH TIME. SERVICE MANAGER REQUESTED THAT THE VEHICLE BE LEFT INDEFINITELY FOR THEM TO TEST DRIVE UNTIL THE CONDITION COULD BE WITNESSED BY TECHNICIAN.

MY WRANGLER WAS COMPLETELY TOTALLED. CRUNCHED FROM EVERY SIDE, AND NOT A SINGLE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. MY PASSENGER WAS SEVERELY INJURED. *DT *JB

DROVE 1018 MILES JEEP WAS RUNNING FINE. STOPPED AT A HOTEL TO CHECK IN. WHEN I WENT BACK OUT TO START IT, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON AND WAS A SOLID LIGHT (NO BLINKING). DROVE IT THANKSGIVING DAY AND TOOK IT TO A DEALER ON FRIDAY WITH THE CODE P0304. MECHANIC TELLS ME THAT IT NEEDS A NEW CYLINDER HEAD AND IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE BACK HOME 1018 MILES. I LEARNED LATER THAT THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND JEEP ISSUED A LIFETIME WARRANTY COVERING UP TO 2013. AFTER MUCH RESEARCH AND READING, THE ISSUE STILL CONTINUES THROUGH THE 2016 MODELS. I CALLED JEEP TO ASK FOR SOME ASSISTANCE SINCE I AM 1018 MILES FROM HOME AND HAVING TO STAY IN A HOTEL FOR 10 DAYS WITH NO LOANER OR RENTAL CAR AND THE REPAIRS ARE ESTIMATED AT $4850 (THE COST AT HOME IN TEXAS WOULD HAVE BEEN $2600) AND CHRYSLER SAID NO! THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND CONTINUES TO HE A KNOWN ISSUE. CHRYSLER JEEP SHOULD BE FIXING THE PROBLEM OR EXTENDING THE LIFETIME WARRANTY FOR THIS ISSUE.

THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON. READ MULTIPLE CASES THAT A DEFECTIVE CLOCK SPRING IS THE REASON

"TAKATA RECALL" MY JEEP AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, MY THERMOSTAT HOUSING STARTED LEAKING, AND MY 2015 JEEP ONLY HAS 40K MILES.

WHILE CHECKING MY FLUID LEVELS, I NOTICED OIL IN THE VICINITY OF MY OIL FILTER AND IN THE VALLEY. WITH LITTLE SEARCH, IT WAS APPARENT, I HAD A POORLY DESIGNED OIL FILTER/COOLER ADAPTER. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND AGAIN, TO MY SURPRISE, THEY DID NOT HONOR THE MANUFACTURES WARRANTY BUT OF COURSE CHARGED ME 160 BUCKS TO TELL ME WHAT I ORIGINALLY TOLD THEM. I THEN ASKED IF THEY HAD THE PART AVAILABLE, GUESS WHAT THEY SAID?? OF COURSE, THEY DON'T HAVE ANY DUE TO NATIONAL BACKORDER. MIND YOU, MY JEEP HAS ONLY BEEN DEALERSHIP TOUCHED AND AT 35000 MILES, THIS SHOULD NOT BE AN ISSUE. I AM FORCED TO DRIVE MY OTHER VEHICLE DUE TO FEAR OF MY ENGINE BAY IGNITING, AS YOU AND I BOTH KNOW IT HAS SADLY HAPPENED TO MANY OTHERS.

HORN OR STEERLING WHEEL COMPONENTS DO NOT WORK WHILE IN MOTION OR AT STILL.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN FREEWAY, THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS SET TO 62. IT SUDDENLY ACCELERATED ON ITS OWN (AS THOUGH I HAD SLAMMED ON THE GAS PEDAL) WHILE BEING PASSED BY A SEMI TRUCK AND TRAILER. WHEN I TAPPED THE BREAK, IT DID NOT TURN OFF. WHEN I SLAMMED THE BREAK DOWN, IT DID NOT DEACTIVATE. I WAS FORCED TO THROW IT IN NEUTRAL, AND VEER INTO THE SHOULDER. WHILE IN NEUTRAL, THE ENGINE WAS STILL REVVING AS THOUGH THE GAS WAS PRESSED. ONCE STOPPED IN NEUTRAL, I HAD TO TURN OFF THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY IN ORDER TO PUT THE VEHICLE INTO PARK. I LET IT SIT FOR 5 MINUTES TURNED OFF THEN START THE ENGINE AGAIN. I NEARLY RAN INTO THE BACK OF AN RV, AND NEARLY REAR ENDED BY A SEMI TRUCK DURING THIS EPISODE.

NAVIGATION SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING DUE TO A FAULTY HEAD UNIT, 430N. THE UNIT SAYS 'CAN'T UNLOCK MAPS' WHEN GOING TO THE NAVIGATION SCREEN AND THEN PROCEEDS TO SAY 'DETAILED MAPS ARE UNAVAILABLE'. NAVIGATION FUNCTION WILL NOT WORK. THIS IS A COMMON AND KNOWN ISSUE AT THE DEALERSHIP AND ON THE FORUMS, HOWEVER JEEP WILL ONLY REPLACE THE UNIT WHILE UNDER WARRANTY, REGARDLESS OF HOW NEW THE VEHICLE IS. I HAVE CONTACTED JEEP AND CHRYSLER DIRECTLY AND THEY SAID BECAUSE OF THE MILES THEY WILL NOT HONOR ANY REQUESTS, REGARDLESS IF IT BY MANUFACTURER FAULT OR NOT.

MY HOOD FLUTTERS (MOVES UP AND DOWN) OVER AND INCH WHILE DRIVING OVER 60 MPH. I AM CONCERNED THAT THIS IS PREMATURELY WEARING THE LATCH MECHANISM AND COULD FAIL CAUSING THE HOOD TO OPEN WHILE DRIVING.

RADIATOR IS LEAKING COOLANT. I HAVE ADDED 2 GALLONS OVER THE LAST YEAR. I SHOULD NOT BE LEAKING COOLANT.

WAITING ON A RED LIGHT JEEP EXCERPTED CAUSING ME TO CLIMB UP CAR SITTING IN FRONT OF ME CAUSING THAT CAR TO HIT THE ONE IN FRONT OF HER WE STARTED FOR THE ON COMING TRAFFIC AIR BAGS NEVER OPENED

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE WITH THE PASSENGER SIDE SEAT .. AND AIRBAG LAMP ON .. THATS PROBLEM SEEMS THATS RARE BECAUSE AFTER I ASKED ALOT OF PEOPLE NO ONE HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE .. AND I DONT SURE IF IS IT SAVE TO DRIVING LIKE THIS OR NO

-NAVIGATION SYSTEM STOPPED WORKING WITH ERROR MESSAGES: "NO MAP DATA AVAILABLE"; "DETAILED MAPS ARE REQUIRED FOR ROUTING. NO DETAILED MAPS WERE FOUND ON THIS UNIT". -ALL OTHER ELECTRONIC SYSTEMS INCLUDING RADIO WORK WELL.

EXCELERATION AT RED LIGHT CAUSING ACCIDENT

BOUGHT MY JEEP JANUARY 2018, RIGHT AFTER PURCHASE I NOTICED THERE WAS A LOT OF PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL. ALSO WHILE DRIVING THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND ACTIVATE. CAUSING ME TO NOT BE ABLE TO STOP OR CAUSING MY SPEED TO SLOW DRAMATICALLY. TOOK MY JEEP TO THE DEALER TODAY TO HAVE IT CHECKED OUT AND OIL CHANGED. TURNS OUT MY VEHICLE HAS TO HAVE THE BOX AND STEERING ARM REPLACED WHICH IS A $1400 FIX! WAS TOLD AT THE DEALER THAT IT WAS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. WHILE LOOKING ONLINE TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY VEHICLE I CAME ACROSS SOME REVIEWS WITH ALL THE SAME PROBLEMS. SEEMS I WAS THE LUCKY ONE AND WASN'T IN AN ACCIDENT LIKE MOST OF THE OTHERS.

WHEN DRIVING IN 1ST (MANUAL TRANSMISSION) IT JERKS OUT OF GEAR. OCCASSIONALY IT WILL DO IT IN 2ND GEAR AS WELL. JEEP TRIED TO FIX THE "RECALL" ON THIS, BUT IN REALITY ITS NOT THE CORRECT "FIX" FOR THE ISSUE.

NOTICED SMELL OF COOLANT WHEN VEHICLE WAS PARKED. I WAS NOT ABLE TO LOCATE THE LEAK. THERE WERE NO PUDDLES OF COOLANT OR DETECTABLE DRIPS. TOOK VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. I WAS TOLD RADIATOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. VEHICLE HAS @ 26,000 MILES. 3 YEAR WARRANTY EXPIERED 5 MONTHS AGO. VEHICLE HAS BEEN DEALER MAINTAINED SINCE PURCHASED NEW. CONTACTED JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE TO REQUEST ASSISTANCE. I WAS TOLD SORRY CAN'T HELP WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. THERE ARE NO INDICATIONS OF ABUSE OR OUTSIDE DAMAGE TO RADIATOR. RADIATOR FAILURE IS AN OBVIOUS MANUFACTURING DEFECT.

MY JEEP CAUGHT FIRE WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY DUE TO A RUPTURED FUEL LINE SPEWING FUEL ONTO THE NEARBY PASSENGER SIDE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. WHEN I EXITED THE VEHICLE, A FLUID WAS ON FIRE DRIPPING DOWN FROM BELOW THE FUEL TANK. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THE FIRE GOT TO THE ENGINE BAY AND MELTED ALL THINGS PLASTIC. I WENT TO THE SALVAGE YARD THE NEXT DAY TO SEE WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE FIRE AND NOTICED THAT THE FUEL LINES WERE GONE. UPON COMPARING THEM WITH ANOTHER JEEP WRANGLER JKU WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE TWO PLASTIC-LIKE LINES SHOW THE POTENTIAL OF RUBBING TOGETHER AND CAUSING THE LINES TO EVENTUALLY RUB OPEN. WITH THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD JUST A FEW INCHES AWAY, THIS IS A REAL POTENTIAL DANGER TO THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE.

MY ODOMETER READS 13,997 MILES BUT I HAVE A TRIP ODOMETER THAT READS 64,285.5 MILES. I JUST BOUGHT IT. I DID A CAR FAX CHECK AND THEY HAVE THE ODOMETER READING AS THE 13,997. HOW CAN THIS BE?

JEEP WRANGLER JK UNLIMITED SPORT S 35K MILES. VEHICLE WIPERS WILL NOT TURN OFF. ISSUES WHERE THE WIPERS CAN BE ACTIVATED WITH THE FOG LIGHT CONTROL AND VICE VERSA. THE FOG LIGHTS CAN COME ON AT RANDOM AND BEGIN TO FLASH ON AND OFF. IT IS TRULY FRUSTRATING TO NOT BE ABLE TO TURN MY WIPERS OFF. I WENT TO THE DEALER AND THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS BOTH THE WIPER SWITCH AND HEADLIGHT/FOG LIGHT SWITCH WERE SHORTING AND BOTH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE ESTIMATE WAS $700 FOR REPAIR. THIS IS REDICULOUS FOR A 3 YEAR OLD VEHICLE AND JUST MONTHS OUT OF THE 3 YEAR WARRANTY. MY GUESS IS THAT IF REPLACE BOTH THE SWITCHES, THE ISSUE WILL RETURN AND THEN THE TRUE CAUSE, WHICH I SUSPECT TO BE THE TIPM, WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED FOR ANOTHER $1200.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN IT RAINED, WATER LEAKED INTO THE VEHICLE THROUGH THE FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER DOORS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FITZGERALD CHRYSLER, JEEP, DODGE, RAM LEXINGTON PARK (22231 THREE NOTCH RD, LEXINGTON PARK, MD 20653, 301-737-0088) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE DOORS NEEDED TO BE REMOVED AND RESEALED. THE TECHNICIAN STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY AND NOT INCLUDED IN A RECALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 20,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD A POPPING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE PULLED TO THE RIGHT AND STOPPED IN A FIELD. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE BRACKET TO THE CONTROL ARM WAS FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO EFIRD CHRYSLER IN FLORENCE, SOUTH CAROLINA WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE BRACKET TO THE CONTROL ARM WAS FRACTURED. THE VEHICLE REMAINED AT THE DEALER FOR EIGHT WEEKS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 57,000.

AIRBAG SENSOR LIGHT CAME ON WITHOUT INCIDENT AND IS NOW ON CONSTANTLY. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND TOLD IT IS THE AIRBAG CONTROL MODULE IS BAD AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN OUR JEEP WRANGLER DOWN THE HIGHWAY MY HUSBAND STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND SAID HE HEARD SOMETHING HISSING THEN HE SAW FLAMES COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD. AT THAT POINT THE JEEP WOULD NOT STEER OR ANYTHING SO HE SHUT IT OFF AND MY HUSBAND AND SON GOT OUT OF THE JEEP. MOMENTS LATER THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE KEEP WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES.

WAS DRIVING ONE NIGHT WITH 8 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER SLEEPING IN THE BACK SEAT. THE HEADLIGHTS SUDDENLY STARTED GOING OFF AND ON THEN OFF COMPLETELY, THEN WIPERS STARTED GOING OFF, THEN INTERIOR LIGHT AND DASHBOARD LIGHTS & LOCKS LIKE IT WAS POSSESSED THEN JEEP SUDDENLY DIED. THANK GOODNESS WE WERE ALMOST HOME SO MY HUSBAND COASTED IT INTO OUR DRIVEWAY THEN WE NOTICED WHAT SMELLED OF ELECTRICAL FIRE, I LOOKED AT THE HOOD AND COULD SEE A GLOW. MY HUSBAND PUT IT IN PARK AS I YELLED FOR MY DAUGHTER TO WAKE UP & GET OUT. MINE & MY HUSBANDS DOOR WERE UNLOCKED BUT THE BACK TWO DOORS WOULDN'T UNLOCK. I JUMPED BACK IN THE CAR (THE FIRE WAS ON MY SIDE ) TO GET MY PANICKING DAUGHTER OUT RIGHT AS THE BACK DOORS UNLOCKED AGAIN WHILE STILL GOING OFF AND ON, AND MY HUSBAND GOT THE FIRE PUT OUT AND BATTERY UNPLUGGED WHICH WAS BY THIS TIME ON FIRE ALONG WITH THE FUSE BOX.

OIL FILTER ADAPTER/OIL COOLER

THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM THAT IS PART OF THE 430N RADIO HAS CRASHED. THIS STARTED OVER A 3 MONTH PERIOD WHERE THE SCREEN WOULD BLANK WHEN YOU TRIED THE NAVIGATION DISPLAY. IT HAS NOW CRASHED AND ONLY DISPLAYS "CANNOT UNLOCK MAPS". THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THAT THE HEAD UNIT HAS CRASHED AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. BECAUSE I HAVE OVER 43,000 MILES ON THE JEEP THEY SAY IT WILL BE AT MY EXPENSE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE THROUGH JEEP CUSTOMER CARE. IT HAS BEEN DISCUSSED ON JEEP OWNER FORUMS FOR THE PAST TWO YEARS. I PURCHASED THE JEEP WITH THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM SO THAT MY WIFE COULD FIND HER WAY WHEN SHE TRAVELED. THE JEEP IS ON 27 MONTHS OLD AND THIS IS NOT A "MOVING" PART THAT DEVELOPS WEAR FROM USE. AGAIN JEEP IS WELL AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AND HAS NOT TAKEN ANY STEPS TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE OTHER FEATURES ALL STILL WORK, RADIO, BLUETOOTH. I HAVE CONTACTED JEEP CUSTOMER CARE AND WAS ASSIGNED A CUSTOMER CARE NUMBER. SINCE THEN I HAVE CALLED BACK FOR THE LAST FOUR DAYS AND MY ASSIGNED REPRESENTATIVE HAS NOT BEEN AVAILABLE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS THAT THE JEEP/ CHRYSLER CORPORATION DOES NOT STAND BEHIND A PRODUCT THAT IS LESS THAN 3 YEARS OLD.

COMPLAINT ISSUED TO DEALER ON BRAKING ISSUES. TOLD ME I WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE BRAKE BOOSTER WHICH WAS CAUSING PROBLEMS FOR $425. I DECLINED. PROBLEM CONTINUES EVERY DAY IN ALL CONDITIONS.

RADIATOR RESERVOIR WAS FOUND TO BE LOW AT AROUND 9,000 MILES DURING FIRST OIL CHANGE. ALONG, WITH A SLIGHT SMELL OF ANTIFREEZE WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS WARM. THE RESERVOIR WAS TOP OFF WITH NO SIGNS OF LEAKS FROM RESERVOIR AND SMELL WAS THOUGHT TO BE COMING FROM RESERVOIR. BOTH ISSUES CONTINUED WITH NO SIGNS OF VISIBLE LEAKS UPON INSPECTION OF COOLANT SYSTEM. SO ISSUES WAS THOUGHT TO TAKEN TILL RESERVOIR WAS FOUND LOW AGAIN AT AROUND 36,000 MILES STILL NO SIGNS OF LEAKS, AND RESERVOIR WAS TOP OFF. CONTINUED TO MONITOR WITH NO SIGNS OF LEAKS UNTIL THE SMELL OF ANTIFREEZE BEGAN TO GET STRONGER AND MORE FREQUENT WHEN VEHICLE WAS WARM. AFTER INTERNET SEARCH, READING ABOUT PEOPLE WITH SIMILAR ISSUES THE PROBLEM WAS FOUND. ON, ENGINE SIDE OF RADIATOR BEHIND FAN ALONG THE END CAP THERE WAS NOTICABLE SIGNS OF LEAK. RADIATOR WAS REPLACED. FCA INFORMED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING NUMEROUS TIMES WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FERMAN CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM IN PORT RICHEY, FLORIDA 34652, PHONE: 727-847-5555 SEVERAL TIMES FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE COMPUTER SYSTEM, RADIO MODULE, THROTTLE BODY, AND FUEL COIL PACKS WERE REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED TO STALL. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

IT IS A KNOWN PROBLEM THAT THE JEEP WRANGLER HEATER CORE PREMATURELY CLOGS AND SUBSEQUENTLY FAILS CAUSING LESS HEAT FROM THE DRIVER'S SIDE DEFROSTER VENTS. DURING THIS RECENT COLD SNAP IN MICHIGAN THE DEFROSTER STRUGGLED TO ADEQUATELY CLEAR THE WINDSHIELD OF FROST AND SNOW AND I FELT THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE. I APPROACHED MY JEEP DEALER AND THEY SAID "YEAH THE HEATER CORES GO OUT EARLY" NOTHING WE CAN DO, IT WILL BE $1500-2000 TO REPAIR AS IT INVOLVES REMOVING THE ENTIRE DASH. I HAVE NEVER HAD A HEATER CORE CLOG WITH LESS THAN 50,000 MILES, THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT AND IN COLD WEATHER CLIMATES COLD POSE A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD. A BRIEF SEARCH OF THE INTERNET LEADS TO A PENDING CLASS ACTION WEBSITE FURTHER GIVING PROOF TO THE WIDESPREAD KNOWLEDGE OF THIS PROBLEM. THE WEBSITE IS: HTTPS://WWW.CARCOMPLAINTS.COM/NEWS/2017/JEEP-WRANGLER-HEATER-CORE-REPLACEMENT-LAWSUIT-CHALLENGED.SHTML I WOULD ASK NHTSA TO LOOK INTO THIS FURTHER AS NOT HAVING ADEQUATE DEFROSTING CAPABILITIES COULD HINDER DRIVER VISION OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD AND SIDE FRONT WINDOWS.

HORN HAS SIGNIFICANT DELAY AFTER BUTTON IS DEPRESSED. POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE AS SOUNDS HEARD BY MOTORISTS/PEDESTRIANS WILL BE DELAYED RESULTING IN LESS TIME FOR THEM TO TAKE ACTION TO AVOID THE HAZARD.

SMELL OF ANTIFREEZE

FAILURE OF THE DRIVERS SHAFT...*BF UPDATED 9/19/18*JB

13 THIRTEEN INCIDENTS ALWAYS IN MOTION. JEEP SLAMS BRAKES WITHOUT ME TOUCHING THE BRAKE FOR APPROXIMATELY 1 TO 2 SECONDS. SKIP CONTROL RED LIGHT APPEARS ON DASH AS WELL AS BUTTON. THEN CONTINUES DRIVING NORMALLY. IT HAS HAPPENED TO ME 13 DIFFERENT TIMES AND PLACES WITHIN ONE MONTH PERIOD. TRAVELING BETWEEN 20 TO 40 IN TOWN AND 11 TIMES ON MAJOR HWYS. I HAVE TAKEN JEEP TO SHOP AT DEALERSHIP OFFICIAL MANUFACTURERS OF JEEP TWICE NOW. SOON TO BE 3 I HAVE SAME COMPLAINTS REGARDING SAFETY ISSUES FOR OWNERS OF SAME TYPE OF JEEP AS ME BOTH WITH AND WITHOUT LIFTS SO THAT IS ELIMINATED. JEEP STABILITY BUTTON (SKID CONTROL) IS MAJOR PROBLEM (ELECTRICAL THAT MAY CAUSE OTHER ISSUES BEFORE TOO MUCH LONGER IDK (I AM NO MECHANIC BUT THERE IS PROCESS OF ELIMINATION UNDOCUMENTED INCIDENTS HAVE NOW HAPPENED TO ME AT DIFFERENT TIMES AND DATES 13 TIMES! (I AM KEEPING TRACK) SPEEDS FROM 20 MPH AND 40 TO 45 MPH AND 70-75 MPH BOTH IN TOWN AND ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS. I HAVE TRIED TO STOP PEOPLE TO GET WRITTEN STATEMENT TO NO AVAIL. USUALLY FLIP OFFS, PEOPLE SWERVING AT ME, VEHICLE GETTING IN FRONT OF ME THEN SLAMMING ON BRAKES, PROBABLY AROUND 5 TIMES I HAVE RUN PEOPLE BEHIND ME OFF ROAD INTO OTHER TRAFFIC OR DITCH/'SIDE' ONCE INTO CENTER CEMENT BARRIER BETWEEN N-S TRAFFIC IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC! I AM MAKING THIS COMPLAINT DUE TO YOUR WRITTEN STATEMENT THAT ALL COMPLAINTS ARE REVIEWED! IF CERTIFIED LETTER IS REQUIRED REGARDING THE INCIDENTS DESCRIBED ABOVE, PLEASE LET ME KNOW. I DO HAVE THIS COMPLAINT ALONG WITH JEEP MANUFACTURERS TRYING TO REPAIR. I AM WOMAN SO NEITHER TIME DID THEY LOOK AT ALL THESE COMPAINTS, CHECK THEM OUT, OR DRIVE. AGAIN SOON TO BE THIRD TIME FOR SAME REASON. - AS FAR AS WRITTEN DOCUMENTATION, ONLY MANUFACTURES' REPORTS ARE LISTED UNDER VIN#. ACCIDENT//INCIDENT/TICKET NOT AVAILABLE. SERIOUS PROBLEM FOR JEEP IF I OR ANYONE CAUSES ANOTHER TO POSSIBLY DIE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH OR MORE, THE VEHICLE WOULD SHAKE VIOLENTLY WHEN IT DROVE OVER THE SMALLEST BUMP. THE EXPRESSWAY DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM DEALER IN EVANSVILLE, IN (5531 E INDIANA ST) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS OPERABLE, BUT THE CONTACT DID NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER AWAITING A DIAGNOSIS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000.

AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY IN HIGH SPEED FRONT END COLLISION. THERE WERE TWO VEHICLES IN INVOLVED IN THE COLLISION. ONE CROSSED THE CENTER LINE AND STRUCK THE JEEP HEAD ON. DRIVER OF THE JEEP WAS INJURED DUE TO NO AIR BAG DEPLOYMENT. ... UPDATED 11/15/17 *BF AND 11/16/17 *BF .. ..UPDATED 12/11/17 *BF UPDATED 11/16/2017*JS *TR

I BOUGHT MY JEEP USED WITH APPROX. 22,000 MILES ON IT ON JANUARY 1,2017. I HAD BEGAN SMELLING BURNING FROM UNDER THE JEEP. WITH A OIL CHANGE THE MAN STATED THAT IT WAS LEAKING FROM THE FRONT AND REAR AXIL ASSEMBLY. I CALLED THE DEALER AND EXPLAINED THE PROBLEM AND MADE A APPOINTMENT. I HAD APPROX. 35000 MILES ON THE JEEP. I WAS TOLD AFTER PICKING UP MY JEEP BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT THE LEAKS WERE FIXED. IN ABOUT A 2 WEEKS I COULD STILL SMELL BURNING. I THOUGHT IT MAY BE RESIDUAL FROM BEING FIXED. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND I CALLED TO MAKE APPOINTMENT. I HAD CHECKED THE TIRE PRESSURE AND THE TIRES FOR ANY ISSUES. I TOLD SERVICE THAT THE JEEP BECAME ROUGHER TO DRIVE AND HARDER TO STEER, 2 WEEKS AFTER THAT I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, HIT A BUMP AND THE STEERING WHEEL BEGAN TO POUND & SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. IT FELT LIKE THE FRONT TIRES WERE SHAKING BACK AND FORTH FAST. I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE JEEP. I PULLED OVER ( 4 LANES OF TRAFFIC) TO THE SIDE TO ASSESS THE ISSUE. THE TIRES WERE INTACT WITH NO VISIBLE ISSUES. WHEN I STARTED BACK UP THE WHEELS WERE NO LONGER DOING THE WOBBLING. I DID READ AND FOUND "THE "DEATH WOBBLE" IS A CREATIVE TERM COINED BY JEEP OWNERS THAT DESCRIBES A SITUATION WHEN THE FRONT AXLE BEGINS VIOLENTLY OSCILLATING, CAUSING THE CAR TO SHAKE (OR WOBBLE) IN A MANNER WHICH MAKES THE VEHICLE HARD TO CONTROL". I DROVE TO THE DEALERSHIP AND EXPLAINED THE ISSUE AND TOLD THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT WORKER IT WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND IT NEEDED FIXED. I DO HAVE EXTENDED WARRANTY. I WAS TOLD THAT THEY COULD NOT FIX IT AND IT WOULD TAKE 2 TO 3 WEEKS BEFORE I COULD GET A APPOINTMENT. I WAS VERY UPSET KNOWING IT WAS NOT SAFE BUT HAD NO CHOICE TO MAKE THE EARLIEST APPOINTMENT 2 WEEKS OUT. I WAS TOLD I COULD GET A RENTAL CAR, I STATED I WAS NOT PAYING FOR A RENTAL WHEN MY JEEP IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND THEY WILL NOT FIX IT SOONER. MILEAGE WAS 37,753

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS UNDER ACCELERATION THE BRAKES WILL LOCK-UP CAUSING AN ABRUPT STOP. THE VEHICLE THEN HAS NO ACCELERATION POWER AT THE BRAKES ARE BEING APPLIED WITH NO INPUT FROM THE DRIVER. BASICALLY THE ABS IS ENGAGING BRAKES WITHOUT PRESSURE APPLIED TO THE BRAKE PEDAL. IT IS LIKELY AND HIGHLY PROBABLY THAT THIS WILL CAUSE A FATAL OR NEAR FATAL REAR END COLLISION. IN TRAFFIC OR WHEN PULLING INTO A LANE OF TRAFFIC IT OCCURS WITHOUT WARNING. ****** PLEASE ADDRESS THIS PROBLEM. IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS***

I WAS DRIVING ON THE 91 FREEWAY EASTBOUND IN CALIFORNIA. SOMEBODY WAVE ME TO STOP. THE CAR GOT ON FIRE WHILE DRIVING. AS SOON AS WE GOT OUT WE SAW THE FLAMES, IT GOT ON FIRE SO BAD THAT ONLY THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS ABLE TO EXTINGUISH IT. SOME TRUCK DRIVERS TRIED TO EXTINGUISH BUT THEY COULDN'T. IT ONLY HAD 24000 MILES ON IT BECAUSE I ONLY USE IT ON THE WEEKENDS. I TOOK REALLY GOOD CARE OF IT. NEEDLESS TO SAY IT WAS THE SCARIEST AND SADDEST MOMENT OF MY LIFE. I'M STILL WONDERING WHAT HAPPENED

2015 JEEP WRANGLER, IN MOTION, TRAVELING STRAIGHT, ON HIGHWAY (ROADS WERE WET FROM RECENT RAIN) & APPROACHING TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT MAJOR INTERSECTION. SIGNAL CHANGED FROM GREEN TO YELLOW. I PUSHED THE THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW DOWN. THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND, THE JEEP DID NOT SLOW DOWN. THE JEEP CONTINUED TRAVELING STRAIGHT. I PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL AT LEAST TWO MORE TIMES, DOWN TO THE FLOOR. THE BRAKES DID NOT RESPOND. THERE WAS A VERY LOUD "GRINDING" NOISE COMING FROM THE JEEP WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED INTO THE INTERSECTION WHERE IT CAME TO A STOP. THE BRAKES DID NOT SLOW THIS VEHICLE DOWN, THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK! THERE WAS NO CONTROL OF THIS VEHICLE'S SPEED. DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT. CHECKED OUT THIS JEEP THE NEXT DAY & FOUND NO PROBLEM WITH THIS JEEP & COULD NOT DUPLICATE CONCERN. WHEN I LATER DROVE THE JEEP HOME, THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON. FCA, CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE WAS NOTIFIED. CHRYSLER ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER & CASE MANAGER. THE CASE MANAGER INFORMED ME THAT SHE CALLED THE SERVICE/DEALERSHIP (WHO SERVICED THE JEEP THE DAY AFTER THE EVENT) AND SHE WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MGR. "JEEP IS OPERATING PERFECTLY & IS UP TO MY SATISFACTION". I INFORMED CHRYSLER, VIA PHONE & EMAIL, THAT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE AT ALL! I SENT CHRYSLER A WRITTEN, DETAILED REPORT OF EXACTLY WHAT OCCURRED WITH THIS VEHICLE. I ALSO STATED THAT THIS INCIDENT COULD HAVE ENDED VERY DIFFERENTLY, WITH INJURIES AND OR DEATH! I NEVER HEARD FROM CHRYSLER AGAIN. AS OF TODAY, CHRYSLER HAS NOT RETURNED ANY OF MY PHONE MESSAGES.

FUEL BLOW BACK WHEN FILLING IT, AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS. NOT ABLE TO FILL AT NORMAL RATE. I HEAR FROM MANY PEOPLE THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH JEEPS. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IT COULD BE THEIR BALL IN CAGE FILTER DESIGN, OR O RING GASKETS.

2015 JEEP WRANGLER SAFARI RIGHT REAR SIGNAL LIGHT WORK INTERMITTINGLY. VERIFIED THAT NOT POWER IS BEING TRANSMITTED TO THE RIGHT REAR SIGNAL LIGHT FROM THE TIPM. JEEP WILL NOT WARRANTY BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T INSTALL THE AFTER MARKET TOWING WIRING KIT. THE KIT WAS INSTALLED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NEW AND THE PROBLEM FIRST STARTED AFTER THE VEHICLE HAD OVER 13,000 MILES. AT THE TIME THE PROBLEM WAS VERY INTERMITTING AND WAS ONLY NOTICED BECAUSE THE INSIDE SIGNAL BLINKER WOULD SUDDENLY BRINK AT A VERY FAST RATE. A FEW MINUTES LATE IT WAS OK. NOW IF YOU TURN THE SIGN LIGHT ON, AFTER ABOUT 5 SECONDS, IT START BLINKING VERY RAPIDLY INDICATING THE RIGHT REAR SIGNAL HAS FAILED AGAIN. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS 16,000 MILES AND THE SITUATION IS THAT THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME MAY OR MAY NOT KNOW THAT I AM MAKING A RIGHT HAD TURN.

AS I WAS DRIVING 55 MILES AN HOUR, THE ABS LIGHT ON THE DASH CAME ON AND THE CAR LIGHT WITH THE SWERVING LINES BEHIND IT ON THE DASH, MY BRAKES LOCKED UP ALMOST CAUSING ME TO CRASH, FINALLY GOT IT ON SIDE OF THE ROAD, RESTARTED IT AND THE LIGHTS ARE STILL LIT UP AND BRAKES STILL LOCKED UP, HAVE TO CALL A WRECKER FOR A TOW, AND I HAVE APPROXIMATELY ONLY 50,000 MILES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER FOLDING DOWN THE REAR SEAT, THE SEAT FAILED TO LOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LITHIA CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE OF CORPUS CHRISTI (4313 S STAPLES ST, CORPUS CHRISTI, TX 78411), BUT THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE WHY THE SEAT WOULD NOT LOCK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10,000.

AIR FROM WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER DOES NOT REACH ENTIRE WINDSHIELD. AIR ONLY COMES OUT OF SMALL SECTION NEAR THE MIDDLE ON BOTH DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDES CAUSING VISIBILITY PROBLEMS DURING RAINY WEATHER. ALSO TAKES MUCH LONGER TO DEFROST ICY WINDSHIELD. ISSUE OCCURS WHETHER IN MOTION OR SITTING STILL.

AFTER HAVING THE CHRYSLER JEEP MOPAR PERFORMANCE PART# 77072353AB_FS INSTALLED BY A JEEP DEALER, THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT I HAVE DISCOVERED. WITH JEEP VEHICLES THAT HAVE BEEN LIFTED USING THE OEM MOPAR 'JEEP PERFORMANCE PARTS' 4" LIFT KIT PRODUCT, WHEREBY FOLLOWING 'JEEP DEALER PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION' AND IN CERTAIN DRIVING SCENARIOS, THE REAR PROPELLER SHAFT COMES INTO DIRECT CONTACT WITH BOTH THE VEHICLE'S EVAP TANK ON DRIVER-SIDE AND FUEL TANK ON PASSENGER-SIDE UNDER CERTAIN RAISED FRONT INDEPENDENT RIGHT OR LEFT WHEEL ARTICULATION SCENARIOS AND I HAVE PERSONALLY INCURRED DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLES OEM PROPELLER SHAFT AND BOOT SLEEVE AND THE ADJACENT EVAP TANK AND FUEL TANK ITEMS FROM THE OEM PROPELLER SHAFT MAKING DIRECT CONTACT WITH BOTH THE EVAP AND FUEL TANKS UNDER THE VEHICLE. THIS 4" LIFT KIT IS A MOPAR SOLD AND JEEP DEALER INSTALLED PRODUCT AND THEY REFUSE TO REIMBURSE ME FOR REPLACING THE OEM REAR PROPELLER SHAFT WITH AN AFTER MARKET REAR DRIVE SHAFT THAT THEY RECOMMENDED AND INSTALLED THAT MITIGATES THE ISSUE OF ARTICULATION CONTACT OF THEIR OEM PROPELLER (WHICH IS LARGER IN DIAMETER THAN THE ALTERNATIVE SHAFT REPLACEMENT THEY SUBSEQUENTLY INSTALLED). I HAVE DOCUMENTED PICTURES AND VIDEOS OF THE OEM DRIVE SHAFT HITTING THE ADJACENT ITEMS UNDER THE VEHICLE WHICH I ALSO PROVIDED TO THE JEEP DEALER IN MY CITY OF RESIDENCE. HOWEVER, DEALER SAID THAT UNLESS THEY HAVE A SAFETY RECALL OR SOMETHING ELSE FROM CHRYSLER INDICATING THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT FOR ME... FOR SOME UNLUCKY PEOPLE, THE GAS TANK RUPTURING AND CATCHING FIRE WILL BE THE ONLY EVENT THAT MAKES THEM AWARE THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT CHRYSLER, JEEP, MOPAR HAVE NOT PREVIOUSLY REALIZED NOR ADDRESSED...

SIGNAL SAFETY: MY COMPLAINT IS THE POOR DESIGN AND SERIOUS SAFETY FLAW OF THE FRONT-END SIDE MARKERS ON ALL 2007 TO PRESENT DAY, JEEP JK/U WRANGLER MODELS. ALTHOUGH THESE VEHICLES HAVE LIGHTED FRONT-END SIDE MARKERS, THEY DO NOT HAVE A TURN INDICATOR FEATURE INSTALLED, CREATING A SERIOUS HAZARD TO DRIVERS WHEN CHANGING LANES, MERGING INTO TRAFFIC, OR SIMPLY TURNING. OTHER VEHICLES AND/OR PEDESTRIANS THAT ARE ALONG EITHER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ARE UNABLE TO VISUALLY SEE THE REAR OR FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, HAVE NO INDICATION OF THE DRIVER'S INTENTIONS WHEN PERFORMING ANY OF THE ACTIONS MENTIONED EARLIER. ALTHOUGH FEDERAL AND MOST STATE LAWS REQUIRE LIGHTED FRONT AND REAR WARNING/SIGNAL INDICATORS, I AM UNSURE WHAT IS REQUIRED FOR SIDE/ABEAM SIGNALS. THIS IS THE FIRST MODERN VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE THIS SIMPLE SAFETY FEATURE AND IT IS ONE THAT SHOULD, SIMILAR TO [EURO] REPEATERS, BE ON ALL U.S. DRIVEN AUTOMOBILES AND TRUCKS TO AVOID COLLISION, OR POSSIBLY LOSS OF HUMAN LIFE.

2015 WRANGLER SAHARA ENGINE FIRE I HAVE JUST PURCHASED 10 DAYS AGO A CERTIFIED 2015 WRANGLER SAHARA CERTIFIED PRE OWNED FROM AVONDALE DODGE IN PHOENIX AZ. IT WAS A GORGEOUS HARDTOP GREY, WITH 30" TIRES, MAGS AND AN LED LIGHT BAR. I HAD BEEN LOOKING FOR 3 MONTHS AND FINALLY FOUND MY DREAM WRANGLER. STILL WITH A TEMP PLATE AND ONE TANK OF GAS IN IT THE ENGINE CAUGHT FIRE SITTING IDLE AT MY WORK. I HAD LITERALLY DROVE FROM THE DEALER HOW IT HAPPENED. I HAD GONE FOR LUNCH WITH CO WORKERS AND PARKED IN COVERED PARKING AT MY OFFICE IN PHOENIX. THERE WAS NO FOUL SMELLS AND THE VEHICLES PERFORMANCE WAS NORMAL. I WAS NOTIFIED BY THE FACILITIES MANAGERS 2 HOURS LATER WHILE IN A MEETING THAT FELLOW EMPLOYEES SAW IT SMOLDERING THROUGH THE GRILL AND PHONED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. WHEN I GOT OUTSIDE THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT WAS COMPLETELY CHARRED. *BF *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE TRANSMISSION DOWNSHIFTED RANDOMLY WITHOUT WARNING AND THEN AUTOMATICALLY RETURNED TO NORMAL. THE FAILURE RECURRED SEVERAL OTHER TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL DEALER (KENDALL DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 13355 SW 137TH AVE, MIAMI, FL 33186; (786) 231-2120) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE DEALER REFERRED THE CONTACT TO ANOTHER DEALER (DADELAND DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 16501 S DIXIE HWY, MIAMI, FL 33157; (305) 278-9994). THE CONTACT WAS PLACED ON A WAITING LIST AND HAD TO WAIT FOR TWO AND A HALF MONTHS TO HAVE THE TRANSMISSION REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ANOTHER DEALER (PLANET DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 9975 NW 12TH ST, MIAMI, FL 33172; (305) 470-8000) AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT HE NEEDED TO WAIT SIX MONTHS TO GET THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AT 800-334-9200 AND STATED THAT THERE WAS A DEALER WHO COULD DIAGNOSE THE VEHICLE ON JULY 10, 2017. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST ACCELERATION AND STALLED. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, DEPRESSED THE CLUTCH, AND TURNED OFF THE VEHICLE. ONCE RESTARTED, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED APPROXIMATELY TEN TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO FURMANN CHRYSLER/JEEP IN NEW PORT RICHEY, FLORIDA, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND OPENED CASE NUMBER: 31754410. THE VIN WAS INVALID. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 31,000.

I WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONT END MOTOR VEHICLE COLLISION, WITH ANOTHER MOTOR VEHICLE INCIDENT, TO WIT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG NEVER DEPLOYED APPROPRIATELY. WHERE IN WHICH I RECEIVED INJURY FROM THE COLLISION ACCIDENT. AS A RESULT OF THE COLLISION INCIDENTS, I FURTHER INQUIRED WITH THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENTS MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL, AND WAS INFORMED, THAT THE DEPLOYMENT CONTACT SWITCH LOCATED ON THE FRONT OF MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER, WAS LOCATED IN THE FRONT GRILL AREA, AND NOT LOCATED IN THE FRONT BUMPER AREA. RECENTLY BACK IN THE FALL OF 2016, I RECEIVED NOTICE FROM FIAT CHRYSLER JEEP CORPORATION. THAT MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLERS AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM HAD A RECALL ISSUE. WHICH FURTHER STATED, LET AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SYSTEMS RANGING BACK TO 2012 JEEP WRANGLERS, EXTENDING TO 2017 JEEP WRANGLERS. PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT AS A RESULT OF MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER COLLISION WHICH ENDED UP IN A TOTAL LOSS. I HAD TO PURSUE ANOTHER VEHICLE, HENCE MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER, AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM RECALL NOTICE. FURTHER BE ADVISED, THAT WHEN I HAD TO SHOP AGAIN FOR ANOTHER MOTOR VEHICLE, TO WIT MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. I HAD ASKED THE DEALERSHIP SALES PERSON, IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM HAD EVER CHANGED FROM THE 2015 JEEP WRANGLERS, TO THE 2016 JEEP WRANGLERS? WHERE IN WHICH I WAS INFORMED THAT THE SAME AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SYSTEMS IN THE 2015 JEEP WRANGLER'S WERE THE SAME IN THE 2016 JEEP WRANGLERS. WHERE, GIVEN THE FACT THAT MOTOR VEHICLE AIRBAG RECALLS BY OTHER MANUFACTURING COMPANIES, ARE BEING CALLED INTO QUESTION? IT IS MY CONTENTION, THAT THE 2015 JEEP WRANGLER AIRBAG APPOINTMENT SYSTEM THEN I HAD OWNED AT THE TIME OF THE COLLISION, WAS DEFECTIVE AS WELL. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME ANYTIME REGARDING THIS ISSUE, OR ANYTHING ELSE RELATED TO THIS ISSUE. RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED

OIL LEAK FROM TOP OF ENGINE. APPEARS TO BE FROM OIL FILL ADAPTER OR FROM INSIDE THE LIFTER VALLEY. I SMELL OIL, I'M CONCERNED THAT IT COULD CATCH FIRE? THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 34,000 MILES ON IT.

MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED HAS DEVELOPED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. IT WILL BEGIN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE AFTER HITTING ANY SMALL BUMP ON THE ROADWAY AT SPEEDS RANGING FROM 50 MPH TO 70 MPH*. SHAKING IS SO BAD THAT I HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AS FAST AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE ITS VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL WHILE IT SHAKES. * I ONLY SAID AT SPEEDS UP TO 70 MPH BECAUSE THAT'S THE FASTEST SPEED LIMIT WHERE I LIVE. I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT IT WILL DO IT MORE VIOLENTLY AT HIGHER SPEEDS.

TRACTION CONTROL FEATURE JUST COMES ON SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVER FORWARD OR TUNING A CORNER AT RANDOM TIMES CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO SLOW DOWN IMMENSELY FOR NO REASON. MAY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT IF NOT CORRECTED. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON DRY PAVEMENT MULTIPLE OCCASIONS WITHOUT WARNING OR REASON.

VEHICLE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN UNEXPECTEDLY AT HIGHWAY AND LOW SPEEDS. DIFFICULT TO RESTART. DIFFICULT TO PUT IN GEAR. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN ENGINE SHUT DOWN.

THE VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND WAS TOTALLY DESTROYED. IT WAS PARKED IN A PARKING LOT AND HAD NOT BEEN DRIVEN FOR OVER 24 HOURS. IT HAD APPROXIMATELY 2500 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN MODIFIED FROM FACTORY CONDITION. THIS VEHICLE IS LEASED

AT 34,000 MILES I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE A ROTATIONAL VIBRATION IN THE FRONT END OF MY VEHICLE AND THE DRIVERS FRONT SUSPENSION STARTED TO GET LOUDER OVER A COUPLE WEEKS SO I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP, THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS THE BALL JOINTS WERE WORN AND THEY SAID IT WAS STILL LOUD DUE TO TIRES AGE (WHICH WERE ROTATED WITH EVERY OIL CHANGE AT APPROX 4,000 MILES). THE TIRES WERE NOT WORN DUE TO AGE BUT INSTEAD CUPPED DUE TO DAMAGED SUSPENSION COMPONENT, THE DEALERSHIP THAT I HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED AT ON 12/15/2016 AT 32,534 MILES FOUND THE TREAD DEPTH TO BE AT 8/32 OR GREATER. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN A FEW DAYS LATER BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT DID THE REPAIR AND THEY FOUND THE TREAD DEPTH TO BE AT 9/32.

AFTER NOTICING A ACCUMULATION OF FLUID UNDER MY VEHICLE I TOOK THE CAR TO A MECHANIC WHO MENTIONED THAT THE SEALS ON THE REAR AXEL WERE BOTH LEAKING. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY VERIFIED THAT BOTH SEALS WERE LEAKING AND THAT THE DIFFERENTIAL COVER WAS ALSO LEAKING. THEY REPLACED THE SEALS AND RESEALED THE DIFFERENTIAL COVER, BUT NOTED THAT I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING THE FLUID IN THE DIFFERENTIAL. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN TAKEN OFF ROAD, OUTSIDE OF USUAL DRIVING DOWN UNPAVED ROADS.

I OWN A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED 4 DOOR 4X4 AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. INTERMITTENT LOSS OF POWER AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMES ON.. . I WROTE UP A REPORT A COUPLE OF WEEKS AGO--BUT I UNDERSTAND THE ISSUE BETTER NOW...SO, MY JEEP BASICALLY CONKS OUT--OFTEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS...AND RE-STARTS IN ABOUT 1 SECOND...AT LEAST IT FEELS LIKE IT CONKS OUT--ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS COME ON AS THEY DO WHEN I FIRST START THE JEEP...BUT THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT STAYS ON--DOES NOT BLINK AND IT HAS REMAINED ON SINCE THEN...ALSO THE CRUISE CONTROL WILL NOT TURN ON...I HAVE CHECKED THE FUSES...AND I HAVE RUN AN OBDII DIAGNOSTIC--THE FUSES ARE FINE AND THE DIAGNOSTIC FINDS NOTHING WRONG I HAVE READ THAT THIS ISSUE IS OCCURING FREQUENTLY ON JEEP RENEGADE AND DEALERSHIP SAYS NOTHING IS WRONG. THIS OCCURS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, ON STREETS AND ON HIGHWAYS...WHILE GOING STRAIGHT AND WHILE TURNING...

WE HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE POWERTRAIN AS IN AN EARLIER REPORT WE SENT IN WHERE THE JEEP WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WILL SHAKE AND RATTLE VIOLENTLY AND WE HAVE TO PULL OVER WAIT A MINUTE AND PUT IT INTO PARK THEN DRIVE TO CONTINUE. IT HAS HAPPENED 2 TIMES. NOW TO ADD TO THE LIST THIS WEEKEND WHEN WE TRIED TO DRIVE THE JEEP WE PUT THE GEAR INTO D TO DRIVE FORWARD AND THE JEEP WENT BACKWARDS INSTEAD. WE HAD TO PUT THE SELECTOR INTO PARK AND BACK TO DRIVE 3 TIMES BEFORE THE VEHICLE WOULD GO FORWARD. THIS LATEST INCIDENT WE WERE PARKED AT HOME ON PAVEMENT WITH NO INCLINE. TRIED CALLING THE DEALER BUT WITH IT BEING A WEEKEND GOT NO RESPONSE. DID CALL THE JEEP HOTLINE AND WAS TOLD TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER ON MONDAY. CALLED THE DEALER AND ON MONDAY AND WAS TOLD TO BRING IT IN ON TUESDAY. THE VEHICLE HAS 29K MILES AND HAS BEEN ACTING UP SINCE AROUND 15K. CALLED THE DEALER TODAY AND WAS TOLD STILL DO NOT KNOW WHY IT IS DOING WHAT IT IS DOING. *TR

VEHICLE, IN MOTION, ON HIGHWAYS, AND STREETS, SHUTS OFF. THE LIGHTS GO OUT, SOMETIMES THE RADIO TURNS OFF, THE STEERING GOES OUT, THE GAUGES FALL TO ZERO...THEN, THE BATTERY LIGHT COMES ON, AND THE ENGINE BEGINS OPERATING AS USUAL. IT FEELS AS THOUGH SOMEONE HAS TURNED OFF THE KEY AND THEN TURNED THE KEY BACK ON.

AT 11600 MILES, THE FRONT TIRES ON THE VEHICLE ARE SEVERELY CUPPED AND CHOPPED ON THE INSIDE DRIVING SURFACE. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD POOR HANDLING SINCE DELIVERY. AT 2400 MILES, THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED FOR POOR HANDLING, WANDERING, TIRE OSCILLATION AT HIGHWAY SPEED. THE DEALER DID "STEERING REPAIRS" AND RETURNED THE VEHICLE. AT 11500 MILES THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER FOR IDENTICAL HANDLING AND STEERING PROBLEMS. THE DEALER REPORTED THERE WAS NO PROBLEM WITH THE SUSPENSION AND ROTATED THE TIRES. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS RETURNED, AND DRIVEN AT 30+ MILES PER HOUR, THERE WAS A TERRIBLE HOWL COMING FROM THE REAR OF THE VEHICLE, AND THE STEERING PROBLEMS PERSISTED. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER, THE TIRE DAMAGE WAS REVEALED TO THE OWNER, AND THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THESE PARTICULAR TIRES NEED TO BE ROTATED EVERY 2500 MILES OR THIS DAMAGE WILL OCCUR. THE DEALER, AND CHRYSLER, REFUSED TO REPLACE THE TIRES, STATED THE STEERING WAS FINE, AND SAID THE TIRES NEED TO BE ROTATED AS STATED ABOVE. THE TIRES ARE BF GOODRICH MUD TERRAIN TIRES, WHICH CAME FROM THE FACTORY. THE UNSAFE STEERING REMAINS UNREPAIRED, THE TWO TIRES ARE RUINED AT 11000 MILES, AND CHRYSLER AND THE DEALER HAVE REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING FURTHER TO REMEDY THE SITUATION OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THIS NEEDS TO BE INVESTIGATED AS A STEERING/SUSPENSION DEFECT, WHICH THE COMPANY IS UNWILLING TO REMEDY, OR EVEN REPLACE RUINED TIRES. THE COMPANIES ONLY REMEDY IS TO MANDATE A RIDICULOUS ROTATION SCHEDULE FOR THE TIRES. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. *TR

I WAS LUCKY I WAS PARKING THE JEEP WHEN THE SECTOR SHAFT BROKE AND THE STEERING GEAR LINK FELL OFF. UNDER OTHER CIRCUMSTANCES THIS COULD HAVE ENDED IN A MAJOR ACCIDENT. AND IF A DEADLY ACCIDENT OCCURRED, THE INSPECTION REPORT MOST LIKELY WOULD HAVE BLAMED THE COLLISION FOR THE BROKEN SHAFT AND CHRYSLER WOULD HAVE BEEN EXONERATED OF ANY RESPONSIBILTY. MY JEEP HAPPENED TO BE A DEADLY TRAP BECAUSE OF POOR MATERIALS USED IN THE MANUFACTURE OF THE VEHICLE. WHERE IS THE LIABILITY, AND ACCOUNTABILITY OF JEEP? NOTHING! THEY WON'T EVEN PAY FOR THE DAMNED SHAFT TO BE REPLACED. JEEP WILL CERTAINLY IGNORE THIS EVENT AND IF FORCED TO RESPOND THEY WILL PROBABLY BLAME ME FOR ABUSING THE DAMNED JEEP WHICH, BY THE WAY, I TREAT LIKE MY PET. I AM SO ANGRY BUT IF I EXPRESS HOW I REALLY FEEL, THE COMPLAINT WILL NOT BE POSTED. BE CAREFUL FOLKS, YOU MAY LOSE CONTROL OF YOUR JEEP ANYTIME FOR NO FAULT OF YOUR OWN, AND YOU MAY GET KILLED AND KILL SOMEBODY ELSE BECAUSE JEEP IS FOCUSED IN MAKING PROFITS INSTEAD OF MAKING SAFE VEHICLES. THE SERIAL NUMBERS FOUND IN THE SECTOR SHAFT ARE AS FOLLOW: JLK4C, 140502B, AND B4076. THIS STORY IS REAL!

I AM HAVING DIFFICULTIES WITH MY BRAND NEW PURCHASED JEEP WRANGLER AND IT HAS BEEN IN AND OUT OF THE DEALERSHIP SINCE SEPTEMBER WITH NO RESOLUTION. THIS JEEP IS 19 MONTHS OLD AND WE BOUGHT IT BRAND NEW FROM SAHARA JEEP. DESPITE THE FACT THAT IT DOES RUN THE ENGINE SUDDENLY CHOOSES TO LOSE POWER WHILE I'M DRIVING AND ACCELERATING OR DECELERATING IS NOT AN OPTION. NOT REALLY SAFE ESPECIALLY WHEN MY DAILY COMMUTE TO AND FROM WORK IS OVER 20 MILES ONE WAY ON HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE ENGINE HAS STOPPED ABOUT 6 TIMES AND TWO TIMES OF THOSE HAS BEEN ON HIGHWAY SPEEDS WHICH IS NOT A SAFE PLACE. I HAVE BEEN LUCKY THAT WHEN IT HAPPENED THAT I HAVE NOT BEEN REAR ENDED OR EVEN WORSE HAVE CAUSED ANY ACCIDENTS. I HAVE CONTINUOUSLY BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK TO CHAPMAN AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO FIND ANY ISSUES AND THEN NOW THE VEHICLE IS AT SAHARA AND I AM GETTING THE SAME ANSWERS. ALTHOUGH ERROR LIGHTS HAVE COME ON AND I HAVE GIVEN THE DEALERSHIPS THOSE THEY ARE STILL UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE WHAT IS MAKING THE VEHICLE ENGINE SUDDENLY STOP.DIAGNOSTIC TESTING KEEPS COMING UP NEGATIVE. I WAS GIVEN A FLIGHT RECORDER TO ATTACH TO MY JEEP TO HELP ASSESS THE ISSUE. THE VEHICLE DIED AND I WAS ABLE TO SUCCESSFULLY RUN CODES THROUGH THEIR RECORDER (SUPPLIED BY JEEP) AND HAD THE VEHICLE BACK AT THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY. I WAS TOLD THAT THEIR COMPUTERS WERE DOWN AND UNABLE TO READ THE CODES BUT THEY DID CAPTURE SOMETHING BUT HAD FORWARDED IT ONTO CORPORATE TO READ. A COUPLE DAYS LATER WITH NO UPDATE I CONTACTED CORPORATE AND WAS TOLD THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO READ THE CODES BECAUSE THEIR SYSTEM WAS ALSO DOWN AND I WOULD HAVE TO DO IT ALL OVER AGAIN. *TR

2015 WRANGLER JKU SPORADIC STALLING ON BOTH HIGHWAY AND RESIDENTIAL STREETS. WAS RECENTLY SERVICED FOR OIL CHANGE AND SOFTWARE UPDATE. ALSO STALLED WHILE JEEP WAS IDOL FOR 20 MINUTES BUT ABLE TO RESTART IT. WHEN IT STALLED...INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS UP AND JEEP STALLS. CAN RESTART IN HOUR WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. DEALER NOT ABLE TO REPRODUCE STALLING AFTER TESTING FOR 10 MILES. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES. DROPPED OFF AT DEALER AGAIN THIS MORNING.

TWO WEEKS AGO THE JEEP FAILED TO SHIFT OUT OF GEAR ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE DRIVING TO WORK. PRIOR TO THIS IT WAS NOT DISPLAYING ANY ISSUES. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO A STOP IN THE BREAKDOWN LANE AND CALLED FOR A TOW BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. LATER THAT DAY I RECEIVED A CALL FROM A SERVICE MANAGER, ROGER THAT THE CLUTCH WAS WORN OUT AND REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. I WAS SHOCKED THAT A VEHICLE THAT IS LESS THAN A YEAR OLD WITH LESS THAT 18K MILES WOULD NEED A CLUTCH SINCE ABOUT ALL I DO WITH IT IS DRIVE TO WORK. HE EXPLAINED THAT THIS IS A WEAR PART AND NOT UNDER THE WARRANTEE SINCE I WAS OVER 12K MILES. LATER THE NEXT DAY THEY CALLED ME DOWN TO THE DEALERSHIP TO EXAMINE THE FULL EXTENT OF THE DAMAGE. THE CLUTCH JUST DIDN'T WEAR IT SHREDDED ITSELF APART CAUSING A CATASTROPHIC FAILURE IN THE TRANSMISSION. THE MECHANIC (WHO SEEMED TO KNOW WHAT HE WAS TALKING ABOUT) EXPLAINED THAT BASED ON THE FLYWHEEL CONDITION THAT THIS WAS NOT A CASE OF GRADUAL WEAR BUT A SUDDEN FAILURE THAT DAMAGED THE FLYWHEEL AND TRANSMISSION HOUSING. HE WAS BASING THAT ASSESSMENT ON THE FACT THAT THE FLYWHEEL WAS NOT WORN AT ALL AND SHOWED ME WHAT A WORN FLYWHEEL WOULD LOOK LIKE. UPON HEARING THAT I INSISTED THAT THIS SHOULD BE A WARRANTY COVERED REPAIR AS IT SOUNDED LIKE A MANUFACTURER'S DEFECT THAT CAUSED THIS AND CERTAINLY NOTHING I'VE DONE. BASICALLY THE CLUTCH EXPLODED AND CAUSED THIS. I'VE POSTED THIS STORY ON A FEW JEEP FORUMS AND FOUND A FEW OTHER JEEP OWNERS THAT WERE TOLD THE SAME THIS. ITS ABOUT TIME FCA TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS AND ISSUE A RECALL BEFORE ANYONE GETS HURT.

AFTER A COUPLE OF WEEKS WE NOTICED WATER ALL ON THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AFTER RAINING. I ASKED THE SALESMAN ABOUT THE LEAKS AND HE STATED ALL JEEPS DO THAT. .CARPETS CONTINUED TO GET SOAKED AND CANNOT SEE WHERE IT IS LEAKING SO I ASKED THE MAINTENANCE TECH AFTER OUR FIRST OIL CHANGE AND I WAS TOLD TO PULL THE PLUG UNDER THE CARPET AND DRAIN THE WATER..I AGAIN WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL FOR A JEEP TO LEAK..APPROX MARCH 2016 THE WIFE WAS FED UP WITH THE WATER POURING IN AND THE SMELL OF MILDEW OF THE CARPET DUE TO LEAKAGE. SHE WENT TO THE DEALER AND COMPLAINED . SHE WAS TOLD WE HAD TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT WHICH WOULD BE BEYOND A MONTH AND THEY WOULD KEEP IT FOR A SPELL . NO RENTAL OR LOANER...I WORK OUT OF TOWN AND GETTING IT IN ON APPOINTMENT IS NOT ALWAYS FEASABLE BEING MY WIFE IS ON DISABILITY AND NEEDS A VEHICLE. SINCE THEN THE PASSENGER SEATBELT HAS STUCK ON NUMEROUS OCCASION AND CANNOT BE OPERATED PROPERLY.THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO BE LATCH STICKING AND NOT RELEASING. MY WIFE MENTIONED TO ME SINCE SHE DRIVES IT MORE THAN ME, THAT IT PULLS AND HAS BEEN FOR A LONG TIME. WHEN I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM CHRYSLER AROUND OCT 15TH I SENT IN NEGATIVE WORDS OF ALL THESE ISSUES AND WHEN I GOT A CALL ABOUT THESE ISSUES I RECEIVED A CALL FROM BONNIE A CASE MANAGER AND WE TALKED. SHE SAID TO GET IT TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS AND IF I HAD ANY OTHER ISSUESTO CALL HER BACK AND GAVE ME A CASE NUMBER. I CONTACTED THE DEALER BUT NO REPAIRS YET. THEY SAY WAIT FOR APPOINTMENT. I DID GO TO THE RECALL WEBSITE AND NOTICED OTHERS HAVING A WEATHER ISSUE, A FEW SEATBELTS AND ALSO THE SO CALLED DEATH WOBBLE. I ASKED THE WIFE FOR THE FULL SYMPTOMS AND TO MY SURPRISE IT IS THE KNOWN DEATH WOBBLE.SHE SAID IT WILL SHAKE VIOLANTLY AFTER 60MPH AND THEN JUMP OUT OF GEAR , POP INTO NUETRAL. HAS HAPPENED SHE SAID 3 TIMES THIS YEAR. JEEP HAS NEVER BEEN OFFROAD AND TOP HAS NEVER BEEN OFF..

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED CHEST AND HAND INJURIES AND WHIPLASH, BUT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT RESUMED DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE SHOOK VIOLENTLY WITH AN ABNORMAL NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE POWER STEERING DAMPER AND MOTOR MOUNT DETACHED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 30,000.

MY VEHICLE WOULD MAKE A MOANING NOISE WHEN GOING INTO DRIVE AND REVERSE. IT TOOK CHRYSLER OVER A YEAR TO LISTEN TO ME AND REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. ONCE IT WAS REPLACED, I HAVE NOT HEARD THE NOISE SO FAR. THIS NOISE WOULD OCCUR WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY BUT ALSO WOULD OCCUR IF I WAS STOPPED AND STARTED MOVING AGAIN. *TR

OIL FILTER HOUSING. DEALERSHIPS ARE NOT REPLACING THIS FAULTY HOUSING UNLESS IT'S MADE A NATIONWIDE RECALL. THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR QUITE A FEW CHRYLSERS - JEEPS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THE 2014 & 2015 OIL FILTER HOUSING CRACKS AND DEALERS WILL NOT FIX IF NOT UNDER WARRANTY AND IF THEY HAVE NOT CHANGED OIL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, IT WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT TENSIONER DID NOT RETRACT, WHICH CAUSED THE CONTACT'S HEAD TO HIT THE WINDSHIELD. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED A HEAD AND BACK INJURY, WHICH REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS DAMAGED, BUT NOT DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 24,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS OPERATED, THE SPARE TIRE AND TIRE ASSEMBLY DETACHED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS CONFIRMED THAT THE TIRE ASSEMBLY DETACHED AND NEEDED TO BE RE-ATTACHED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 30,000. UPDATED 12/13/16*LJ

I KEEP GETTING A STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT AND THAT CAUSES THE ECB LIGHT TOO POP AND THEN I HAVE NO STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS. THIS ALL STARTED AFTER I TRIED TO SUPERCHIP MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. SENSE THEN MY JEEP HAS BEEN IN A LOCAL SHOP FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND THEY HAVE HAD THE BRAIN REFLASHED AND HAVE CHANGED GEARS FOR THE 4INCH LIFT AND MUCH MUCH MORE. I WAS DRIVING 65MPH WHEN THE STABILITY CONTROL FIRST TRIES TO TAKE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE, TALK ABOUT SCARY...ANYONE OUT THERE HAVE THIS OR SIMILAR ISSUES, PLEASE HELP.

BLINKERS ARE NOT WORKING. TOOK IT TO JEEP DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE AND WOULD COST $511 FOR THE PART PLUS LABOR. THE JEEP IS LESS THAN 2 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS TYPE PROBLEM. NEED A RECALL.

I WAS ON A ROAD TRIP TRAVELING 70 MPH ON I90 WITH CRUISE CONTROL SET WHEN CRUISE CONTROL DISENGAGED 3 TIMES ON ITS OWN THEN APPROXIMATELY 100 MILES LATER THE POWER OUTLET IN DASH CAUGHT FIRE (BEHIND DASH) AND SPREAD TO THE HEATER/AC CONTROL PANEL. I ENDED TRAILERING MY JEEP HOME. IT IS DRIVABLE BUT I TOOK IT TO DEALER TO CHECK IT OUT (THEY CALLED CHRYSLER (THEY'RE SENDING OUT THEIR OWN INVESTIGATORS)). MY JEEP JUST TURNED A YEAR OLD AND LESS THAN 4000 MILES.

MANUAL TRANSMISSION SHIFTER: STARTED VEHICLE AFTER PARKED FOR 1 HOUR, SHIFTER SUDDENLY BECAME LOOSE WITH NO WARNING OR GRADUAL WEAR. SHIFTER HITS CENTER CONSOLE REQUIRING OPERATOR TO ROTATE THE ENTIRE SHIFTING LEVER, WHICH DOES NOT STAY IN PLACE. SHIFTER FAILS TO REACH 1ST AND 2ND GEARS, OR 5TH/6TH/REVERSE DEPENDING ON ROTATION. THIS PROBLEM CAUSED OPERATOR TO STALL IN BUSY INTERSECTION.

STOPED AT A STORE, UPON RETURNING TO VEHICLE THE DRIVER SIDE SEAT BELT WAS LOCKED AND UN ABLE TO BE USED. TOOK IT TO A JEEP DEALER THE NEXT DAY OR SO AND THEY DENIED THE WARRANTY SAYING IT WAS PACKED WITH MUD. I CONTACTED JEEP AND EMAILED THEM PUCTURES SHOWING THE DEALERSHIP WAS LYING. I WENT 7 DAYS AFTER TALKING TO JEEP BEFORE THEY DECIDED TO FIX IT. SO 2 DAYS AFTER IT WAS FIXED MY PASSENGER SIDE DOES NOT WORK DOING THE SAME AS THE DRIVER DID . I DONT REALLY KNOW HOW TO ADDRESS IT NOW AS JEEP NOR THE DEALERSHIP CARED ABOUT MY SAFETY AND GAVE ME SUCH UNESSIDARY TROUBLE. ANY ADVICE WOULD BE GREATLY APRECIATED. ILL BE GETTING RID OF THE JEEP AS I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN IT ANYMORE WITH SEAT BELTS BEING YSED THAT WILL ALL OF A SUDDEN STOP WORKING ?

THE SHIFTER ROLLS OVER AND HITS THE CENTER CONSOLE ON MY MANUAL TRANSMISSION. THE DEFECTIVE SHIFTER PART # 52060062AF IS REPLACED WITH PART # 52060062AG. AT THE MOMENT THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THE PART CANNOT BE LOCATED ANYWHERE IN THE CONTINENTAL U.S. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE ISSUED A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE DIE IN A WRECK BECAUSE THEY ARE UNABLE TO SHIFT THE TRANSMISSION.

WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH ON A CONTROLLED ACCESS HIGHWAY, MY WIFE OBSERVED THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATE, WITHIN SECONDS, THE DRIVER AIRBAG DEPLOYED. LUCKILY, SHE WAS ABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. UNKNOWN IF THIS AIRBAG WAS MANUFACTURED BY TAKATA

THIS VEHICLE, WHILE SITTING IN A DRIVEWAY, ENGINE OFF FOR AT LEAST 1/2 HOUR, HAD A FIRE START IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO BE A TOTAL BURN. CHRYSLER INVESTIGATOR RULED THAT IT WAS NOT A "MANUFACTURING DEFECT." I HAVE MANY PICTURES OF THE FIRE EVENT AND AFTER FIRE REMAINS. I HAVE BEEN IN THE RETAIL AUTOMOTIVE BUSINESS FOR 30+ YEARS. I ALSO WAS A PUBLIC SPEAKER FOR CHRYSLER CORP AS WELL. HAD MY SON NOT STOPPED AT A FRIENDS HOUSE FOR DINNER, THAT FIRE WOULD HAVE OCCURRED IN MY GARAGE!! IT IS CRIMINAL WITH SO MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS FOUND ONLINE, THAT THEY WOULD CONTINUE TO TAKE THIS POSITION.

OUR JEEP GOES INTO A VIOLENT SHAKE WHICH MAKES IT VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL JUST TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND STOP THE VEHICLE. WE FOUND OUT THIS IS CALLED THE JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. IT STARTED VERY SOON AFTER WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND IT STILL DOES IT.

DEFECTIVE CAR DOOR LOCKING SYSTEMS SPORADICALLY FAILS TO PROPERLY FUNCTION. UNLOCKING MODE IS INOPERABLE AT TIMES. THIS DEFECT OCCURS AT ALL TIMES WHETHER THE JEEP IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION. I HAVE BROUGHT THE JEEP FOR REPAIRS NUMEROUS TIMES AND WAS ADVISED BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT IT COULD NOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX THIS ISSUE. THE JEEP HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN FOR SERVICE AT LEAST FOUR TIMES DUE TO THE LOCKING SYSTEM. ON THE LAST SERVICE DATE, I WAS ADVISED AFTER MY JEEP HAD BEEN IN THE REPAIR SHOP FOR A MONTH, THAT THE INOPERABLE LOCKING DOOR MECHANISM WAS A SAFETY FEATURE DESPITE IT NOT APPEARING AS A SAFETY FEATURE IN THE OWNER'S MANUAL GUIDE. I REQUESTED FROM THE MANUFACTURE DOCUMENTATION VERIFYING THAT THE INOPERABLE LOCKING MECHANISM WAS A SAFETY FEATURE. AT THIS TIME, MANUFACTURE HAS FAILED TO PROVIDE ANY DOCUMENTATION CONFIRMING THAT THE INOPERABLE LOCKING MECHANISM IS A SAFETY FEATURE.

RIGHT OUT OF THE FACTORY I HAD A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM I TOOK IT IN THE FOURTH GEAR SYNCHRONIZER WAS BAD AND THE SHAFT HAD IT REPLACED NOW WITH 15000 MILES IN IT THE ENGINE IS KNOCKING AND THE TRANS IS SCREECHING WHEN I LET THE CLUTCH OUT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN ON TUESDAY ITS VERY UNFORTUNATE PAYING 40 GRAND FOR A VEHICLE THAT'S BROKEN RIGHT OUT OF THE DEALER

WAKE UP IN MIDDLE OF THE NIGHT AND THE JEEP WAS ALREADY IN FIRE . PARKED FOR 7-8 HRS LONELY IN DRIVEWAY. PS: I'M COME FROM ONTARIO CANADA. .. 5 MCCARTHY ST PO BOX 207 CHALK RIVER ONTARIO CANADA K0J 1J0 IDK WHY U DON'T HAVE CANADA IN UR CHOICE OF STATE . THX FOR ANY MORE INFORMATION ABOUT THE FIRE LET ME KNOW CHEERS MATT

VEHICLE AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY IN JEEP WRANGLER DURING A MOTOR VEHICLE COLLISION WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE THAT FAILED TO YIELD RIGHT OF WAY (BOTH VEHICLES IN MOTION) WHICH RESULTED IN FRONT END IMPACT AND JEEP TIPPING OVER TO REST ON PASSENGER SIDE.

MY JEEP HAS 15000 MILES AND FOR THE PAST YEAR I HAS BEEN SUFFERING WHAT IS CALL THE "DEATH WOBBLE". THE CAR ALL THE SUDDEN WILL START SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLE MAKING IT VERY HARD TO CONTROL THE STEERING. I TOOK IT TO WESTGATE JEEP SERVICE IN RALEIGH NC. THEY SAID NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT BUT IT KEEPS DOING IT. I'M TAKING BACK THIS WEEK. THE DEATH WOBBLE STARTS WHEN I GO OVER AN EVEN SECTION OF THE ROAD AND USUALLY AT A SPEED OVER 60 MPH. THE ONLY WAY IT STOPS IS BRINGING THE SPEED TO ALMOST 30 MPH MAKING VERY DANGEROUS IN THE HIGHWAY

WHILE DRIVING AT CITY SPEEDS, JEEP SUDDENLY SHIFTS INTO FIRST GEAR, CAUSING VEHICLES BEHIND ME TO SUDDENLY SWERVE IN ORDER TO AVOID HITTING MY VEHICLE. I PURCHASED THE JEEP IN APRIL 2015, AND IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD THIS IN THE DEALERSHIP FOUR TIMES AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE CONSOLE SHIFT, DID UPDATES AND RE-PROGRAMMED THE TIRES. THIS HAS OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY SINCE I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE AND THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM OR TELL ME WHY IT OCCURS. IT MAKES ME NERVOUS TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE AND I AM AFRAID FOR THE SAFETY OF MY FAMILY AND I. I'VE BEEN IN A LOANER FOR 2 WEEKS NOW AND THEY WANT ME TO COME PICK UP MY VEHICLE. I FEAR FOR THE SAFETY OF ME AND ANYONE IN MY VEHICLE SHOULD I BE HIT FROM BEHIND.

TROUBLE SHIFTING INTO 4TH GEAR, GRINDING, SENT INTO REPAIR FOR 17 DAYS, RETURNED IT THE NEXT DAY WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT, STARTED SECOND GUESSING MYSELF AFTER A FEW WEEKS PROBLEM BECAME WORST, EVERY ATTEMPT TO SHIFT IT TO TO 4 GEAR IT WOULD NOT ENGAGED UNLESS FORCED INTO GEAR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE OBSERVING THE ENGINE, THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE COOLANT IN THE RADIATOR WAS SEVERELY LOW. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE RADIATOR WAS LEAKING AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,571.

VEHICLE ROUTINELY (ONCE EVERY 2-3 WEEK OCCURRENCE) POPS OUT OF 1ST GEAR (STANDARD TRANSMISSION) WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A DEAD STOP. LOCAL DEALERSHIP, FALLS MOTOR CITY (WHERE I BOUGHT THE JEEP) TELLS ME THEY HAVE TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE IN ORDER TO ADDRESS IT. THIS IS AN IMPORTANT SAFETY ISSUE AS THE GEAR POPS INTO NEUTRAL WHILE TRYING TO ACCELERATE OUT OF 1ST GEAR AND I FEEL THE DEALERSHIP IS NOT TAKING IT SERIOUSLY BY THEIR LACK OF WILLINGNESS TO INVESTIGATE BEYOND A CURSORY TEST DRIVE.

THE REGULATION REQUIRING HEADRESTS TO TILT FORWARD IS RIDICULOUS AND CAUSES ME SIGNIFICANT NECK DISCOMFORT. I HAVE TO LEAN THE DRIVER'S SEAT BACK FARTHER THAN I WANT SO THAT THE HEADREST DOESN'T PUSH MY HEAD FORWARD. STUPID BEAURICRATIC REGULATION.

ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND REMAINS ON UNTIL DEALER RESETS IT. CODE INDICATES THAT CYLINDER #6 MISFIRE. SINCE JUN 20 2015 AND UP TO 4 JAN 2016 THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 7 TIMES. TOWN TIME HAS ALREADY REACHED 24 DAYS. SO FAR THEY HAVE REPLACED THE CYLINDER HEAD, REMOVED THE HEAD A SECOND TIME, UPDATED SOFTWARE, AND REPLACED THE CAM SHAFTS, PLUS A NUMBER OF OTHER THINGS. THE STAR TEAM AT CHRYSLER/JEPP HAS BEEN INVOLVED WITH NO SUCCESS. FIRST TIME THE LIGHT CAME ON AND REMAINED ON WAS 18 MAY 15.

THERE IS A 1 TO 2 SECOND LAG WHEN PRESSING THE HORN BUTTON AND WHEN THE HORN ACTUALLY SOUNDS. WITH THE LAG, IT IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO SOUND THE HORN IMMEDIATELY WHEN SOMEONE IS ENCROACHING INTO YOUR LANE OR ANY OTHER TIME WHEN THE HORN NEEDS TO BE SOUNDED TO PREVENT AN ACCIDENT. *JS

WHEN PUSHING THE HORN BUTTON IN THE MIDDLE OF STEERING WHEEL, NOTHING HAPPENS FOR ABOUT 1/2 TO 1 SECOND, THEN HORN SOUNDS. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO CALL ATTENTION TO A POSSIBLE ACCIDENT ABOUT TO HAPPEN.

WE BOUGHT OUR JEEP IN JULY 2015. WENT ON VACATION TO OREGON IN AUGUST 2015 AND THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WE DROVE TO WINCHESTER BAY TO A JEEP DEALER WHERE THEY DIAGNOSED THAT A CYLINDER MISFIRED. BUT THEY SAID TO DRIVE IT BACK TO CALIFORNIA TO THE JEEP DEALER WHERE WE BOUGHT IT. AFTER THAT WHEN DRIVING THE JEEP THE TRACTION LIGHT COMES ON AND AT THE SAME TIME THE ACCELERATOR STOPS WORKING. THE LIGHT STAYS ON FOR ABOUT 4-6 SECONDS, BUT SO DOES THE ACCELERATOR. THIS WAS HAPPENED 9 DIFFERENT TIMES. WE HAVE TAKEN THE JEEP INTO THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND THEY KEEP THE JEEP FOR A WEEK. THIS HAPPENED 3 TIMES, SO FOR 3 WEEKS WE DIDN'T HAVE OUR JEEP AND HAD TO RENT A CAR (WHICH JEEP PROVIDED). THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE TRACTION LIGHT GOING ON. AFTER THE THIRD TIME, THE DEALER WOULD NOT LET US BRING IN OUR JEEP TO THEM SO WE HAD TO CALL THE JEEP SOLUTION, WHICH IS A JOKE. THEY ONLY TRY TO FIND ANOTHER DEALER TO LOOK AT IT. SO WE TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALER AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE SAME PROBLEM. THEY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHEN THE TRACTION LIGHT COMES ON AND THE ACCELERATOR STOPS WORKING, HOW DANGEROUS IT IS WHEN DRIVING 70 MPH IN TRAFFIC AND THEN THE SPEED GOES DOWN TO 63 IN SECONDS. I WAS FLIPPED OFF, CUT OFF AND YELLED OUT BY OTHER DRIVES WHO THOUGHT I WAS SLOWING DOWN ON PURPOSE. I HAVE BEEN RENTING CARS TO DRIVE LONG DISTANCES BECAUSE I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT ON THE FREEWAY TOO FAR. SOME ONE NEEDS TO FIX OUR JEEP AND UNDERSTAND HOW DANGEROUS THIS IS. WE ARE AGAIN TAKING THE JEEP TO ANOTHER DEALER TO LOOK AT IT. THIS WILL BE THE 5TH TIME IN THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. BECAUSE THE ENGINE LIGHT IS NOT GOING ON THEY SAID THEY CAN NOT SEE THAT THE TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON. IS THAT POSSIBLE? PLEASE HELP!

MY WIFE ARRIVE AT WORK AT 2 PM PARKED THE JEEP WRANGLER 2015 AROUND 8 PM THE ENGINE CAUGHT FIRE SECURITY GUARDS TRIED TO TURN OFF THE FIRE BUT COULD NOT LATER ARRIVED FIRE DEPARMENT AND THEY EXTINGUISHED

HORN DELAY! WHEN PRESSING THE STEERING WHEEL THERE IS A NOTICEABLE DELAY IN THE HORN SOUNDING. AT TIMES I HAVE NEEDED THE HORN TO ALERT SOMEONE WANDERING INTO MY LANE AND A QUICK 'HIT' TO THE WHEEL DID NOT SOUND THE HORN. NO OTHER VEHICLE I'VE OWNED OPERATES LIKE THIS. PLEASE GET A FIX TO US OWNERS. MY 2013 WRANGLER HAD THE SAME ISSUE. STILL IN 2015 IT EXITS. LOTS OF INTERNET CHAT ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE ON THE JEEP / CHRYSLER FORUMS.

THERE IS A DISTINCT DELAY BETWEEN PRESSING THE HORN BUTTON (STEERING WHEEL) AND ACTIVATION/SOUNDING OF THE HORN. THIS DELAY CAN BE OVER 1 SECOND. THIS HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP'S ATTENTION. THEY CLAIM THAT IT IS WORKING PROPERLY, WHEN CLEARLY IT IS NOT. MANY TIMES, I HAVE TRIED TO "BEEP" THE HORN TO EITHER AVOID AN INCIDENT, OR OTHERWISE, AND IT HAS NEVER REACTED AS NECESSARY.

JEEP STARTS VIBARATING AT 1500 RPM AS SOON AS IT SHIFTS INTO 4TH GEAR ( MOAN GROAN BAD BEARING OUT OF BALANCE) AT 58MPH 2000 RPM ITS QUITE NOTICEABLE AT 65 MPH 2200RPM ITS BAD IT DOES IT ON ALL ROAD SURFACES ITS BEEN THIS WAY SINCE NEW.

2015 JEEP WRANGLER ONLY HAD 10,000 MILES CAUGHT ON FIRE AND BURNED TOTAL LOSS JUST PULLED INTO DRIVEWAY AT RESIDENCE

I TURNED THE KEY TO START MY VEHICLE AND NOTHING HAPPENED, NO LIGHTS ON THE DASH, NO 'DING', NOTHING. DEALERSHIP MECHANICS AND TECHNICIANS WORKED FOR TWO DAYS TO DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM AND FINALLY DISCOVERED THAT IT WAS A FAULTY TIPM.

ENGINE PROBLEMS: STARTING SUMMER 2015 ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, ACCELERATING, SLOWING DOWN, STOPPED ENGINE WILL NOT GO BACK INTO GEAR ENGINE LOSES POWER WHEN ACCELERATING OR CRUISING BROUGHT INTO DEALERSHIP (PURCHASE LOCATION) APPROXIMATELY AUGUST 19TH 2015 RELEASED SEPTEMBER 2ND 2015 PROBLEMS PERSISTED BROUGHT INTO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP APPROXIMATELY SEPTEMBER 14TH 2015 RELEASED APPROXIMATELY SEPTEMBER 26TH PROBLEMS PERSISTED BROUGHT INTO DEALERSHIP SEPTEMBER 30TH 2015 STILL IN CUSTODY AS OF OCTOBER 8TH ON SEPTEMBER 29TH, I WAS TAKING AN ON RAMP FOR AN INTERSTATE. THE RAMP IS AN UPHILL, HAIR PIN TURN THAT THEN TURNS INTO AN OFF-RAMP FOR ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I HAVE NEVER EXPERIENCED AN ISSUE ACCELERATING AND MERGING INTO THE INTERSTATE TRAFFIC HERE. HOWEVER, THIS AFTERNOON I WAS NOT ABLE TO GET THE ACCELERATION THAT I EXPECTED. WHEN I RAN OUT OF RAMP ROOM, I WOULD HAVE NEEDED TO SLOW DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY IN ORDER TO ALLOW THE SIDE BY SIDE TRACTOR TRAILERS TO GO BY. HOWEVER, BECAUSE OF OTHER CARS THAT WERE BEHIND ME ON THE ON-RAMP, THAT WAS NOT AN OPTION WITHOUT POSSIBLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. SO I MERGED WITH AS MUCH POWER AS I COULD GET, WHICH WAS NOT ENOUGH. THE CLOSEST TRACTOR TRAILING CAME BARRELING DOWN UPON ME QUICKLY WITH HORN BLARING. ON SEPTEMBER 30TH, JUST A COUPLE MILES AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP, I WAS THE FIRST IN LINE AT A RED LIGHT. THE JEEP SHUT OFF. I COULD NOT GET IT BACK INTO GEAR. IT JUST REMAINED IN NEUTRAL NO MATTER WHICH GEAR I TRIED TO PUT IT IN. I SHIFTED IN AND OUT OF PARK AND OTHER GEARS TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF AND BACK ON MANY TIMES. A FEW TIMES DRIVE WOULD ENGAGE BUT THEN THE ENGINE WOULD SHUT OFF AGAIN AFTER A FEW FEET. I FINALLY GOT IT INTO GEAR AND ACCELERATED QUICKLY HOPING TO COVER A GREATER DISTANCE AND IT WORKED. I WAS ABLE TO FINISH MY TRIP TO THE DEALERSHIP.

I DID GET INTO A MINOR ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING ONTO A ON RAMP AND MY VEHICLE SKIDDED THE GUARD RAIL. I EXITED THE VEHICLE TO CHECK FOR DAMAGE AND SAW A FLAME NEAR THE HOOD OF THE CAR AND IMMEDIATELY EXITED. THE GAS TANK WAS NEVER HIT NOR DID I HAVE A MAJOR DIRECT COLLISION IN THE ACCIDENT HOWEVER WITHIN SECONDS THE VEHICLE BURST INTO FLAMES AND WAS COMPLETELY ENGULFED. THE ENTIRE VEHICLE AND MY PERSONAL CONTENTS INSIDE MELTED INTO NOTHING. I LOVED JEEPS BUT THE INCIDENT HAS PERSUADED ME TO AVOID PURCHASING THEM FOR THE NEAR FUTURE.

ABOUT 30 MINUTES AFTER MIDNIGHT ON A THURSDAY MORNING I WAS AWOKE BY THE SOUND OF MY DOG BARKING AND MY SISTER WALKING INTO MY ROOM TELLING ME THERE WAS A LARGE GLOW IN THE DRIVEWAY. AFTER WALKING OUTSIDE, WE FOUND MY BRAND NEW 2015 WRANGLER ON FIRE WITH VERY LARGE FLAMES ERUPTING FROM THE HOOD. WE QUICKLY WOKE THE REST OF MY FAMILY AND RUSHED FRANTICALLY TO PUT IT OUT. AN HOUR LATER, AFTER NEARBY NEIGHBORS ARRIVED TO HELP, AND EMERGENCY SERVICES ARRIVED TO PUT OUT THE FIRE (LOCAL FIRE DEPARTMENT AND POLICE) THE VEHICLE FIRE WAS DOUSED AND THE JEEP WAS HAULED OFF MY PROPERTY TO A LOCAL TOWING YARD. THE FIRE SEEMED TO HAVE STARTED AROUND THE BATTERY AREA, BUT THE SOURCE HAS YET TO BE DETERMINED. THE FIRE CLAIMED THE ENTIRE ENGINE COMPARTMENT, MOST OF THE DRIVERS DASH BOARD AND DRIVERS INTERIOR, AND THE ENTIRE FRONT LEFT TIRE/TRIM.

I WAS DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEED WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ACTIVATED. THE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WAS NOT SHIFTING PROPERLY, AND DID NOT SEEM TO DOWNSHIFT AFTER SLOWING DOWN TO PROCEED THROUGH TOLL BOOTH. WHEN I ATTEMPTED TO ACCELERATE AFTER PAYING THE TOLL, THE ENGINE BEGAN TO SLOWLY ACCELERATE AS IF IT WAS IN FOURTH OR FIFTH GEAR. SHORTLY THEREAFTER, THE OIL LIGHT BEGAN TO TURN ON AND OFF INTERMITTENTLY. I MADE IT TO A CHRYSLER/JEEP DEALER AND FOUND A PUDDLE OF OIL UNDER MY CAR AND THERE WAS NO OIL REGISTERING ON THE DIPSTICK. AFTER THE JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENT EVENTUALLY LOOKED AT MY CAR, I FOUND OUT THERE WAS A CRACKED OIL FILTER ADAPTER THAT HAD TO BE REPLACED. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH, I LEARNED THAT THIS WAS NOT AN UNCOMMON PROBLEM IN JEEPS. I IMAGINE THAT I WAS FORTUNATE THAT THE ENGINE DID NOT SEIZE OR CATCH FIRE, WHICH OBVIOUSLY HAS THE POTENTIAL TO CAUSE SERIOUS HARM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER OR AFTER WASHING THE VEHICLE, WATER LEAKED INTO THE VEHICLE AND SOAKED THE CARPET. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 581.

BETWEEN THE DATES OF 3/20 AND 8/1 MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED (4DR, 4X4) HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING INTERMITTENT CEL P0340 WHILE PULLING A GRADE. WHEN THE CEL OCCUR THE VEHICLE LOSES SIGNIFICANT POWER AND IS UNABLE TO MAINTAIN SPEED. THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM LIGHTS COME ON INDICATING AN ERROR. DURING THIS TIME THE VEHICLE WILL NOT ACCELERATE TO A SAFE SPEED AND THE TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEMS ARE NOT FUNCTIONING. THE VEHICLE WILL RETURN TO NORMAL OPERATION AFTER TURNING THE KEY TO OFF THEN BACK ON. IF THIS IS DONE WHILE MOVING INTERMITTENTLY THE CAR'S SECURITY SYSTEM WILL ENGAGE AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT START BACK UP. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE FOR WARRANTY REPAIR 5 TIMES WITH THIS ISSUE. EACH TIME THE PROBLEM IS SAID TO BE RESOLVED, BUT OCCURS ALMOST IMMEDIATELY.

I BOUGHT THE JEEP APRIL 4, 2015. ON JULY 19, 2015 I PARKED MY CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY AND 3 HOURS LATER AT 5:30 MY DOG WORK ME UP AND I LOOK OUTSIDE AND THE WHOLE FRONT END OF THE JEEP WAS IN FLAMES. WE WERE ABLE TO GET THE FIRE OUT BUT IT WAS A TOTAL LOSS.

I WAS DRIVING MY JEEP ON MY PROPERTY AND HAD STOPPED FOR A MOMENT. NEXT THING I KNOW IT WAS ON FIRE AND IT SPREAD SO QUICKLY I HAD NO CHOICE BUT LEAVE THE VEHICLE AND CALL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. I WAS LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO GET OUT.

6-SPEED MANUAL: WHILE STOPPED AT LIGHTS, CROSSING INTERSECTIONS, AND NORMAL DRIVING ON ROADS, DAY/NIGHT AND WARM/COLD, ENGINE STOPS FOR 2-10 SECONDS. IT HAS STOPPED WHEN PASSING OTHER VEHICLES REQUIRING FULL BREAK APPLICATION TO AVOID ONCOMING TRAFFIC. IN INTERSECTIONS AND WHEN THE CLUTCH WAS PUSHED IN TO HELP COAST THROUGH INTERSECTION, THERE WAS NO POWER STEERING TO HELP TURN THE WHEELS! THE DEALERSHIPS INSIST THAT THERE IS NO PROBLEM AND ENGINE COULD NOT CUT OUT WHILE DRIVING? THIS ENGINE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED AT LEAST 30-40 TIMES.

DRIVING ON A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY AROUND 2PM. I HAD BEEN DRIVING FOR A SOLID HOUR ON THE SAME HIGHWAY WHEN MY JEEP SUDDENLY ACCELERATED. THE GAS PEDAL PROCEEDED TO THE FLOOR EVEN WHILE I TAPPED AND PRESSED PUMPING MY BRAKES. I RECALL AN INITIAL ODD FEELING UNDERFOOT PRIOR TO THE CLIMBING ACCELERATION. I FELT THE PEDAL PULL AWAY DIRECTLY AFTER I FELT A VIBRATION UNDERFOOT. I WAS NOT USING CRUISE CONTROL NOR WAS IT ENGAGED . THE ENGINE WAS CYCLING LOUDLY AND THE RPM GAUGE WAS CLIMBING IN THE RED, I HAD NO CAR MAT IN PLACE BECAUSE I SPILLED A PROTEIN SHAKE A WEEK EARLIER AND IT STILL SMELLED. I STILL CHECKED VISUALLY TO SEE IF SOMETHING SOMEHOW WAS OBSTRUCTING THE PEDAL. I HAD MY HANDS ON THE TOP OF THE WHEEL PER USUAL COMFORT SPOTS. I WAS LIKE, WAIT...WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING?? I HAD TO PRESS AS HARD AS I COULD ON THE BRAKES WHILE PULLING THE EMERGENCY BRAKE UP SLOWLY TO BRING THE OPEN THROTTLED CAR TO A STOP. I NOTICED JUST BEFORE TURNING OFF THE CAR A RED LIGHTNING BOLT APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. MY NEW CAR WAS 4 WEEKS NEW TO OUR FAMILY. I AM AN EXPERIENCED DRIVER WHO OWNED JEEPS BEFORE IN 1989. THE GAS PEDAL WAS SO TIGHTLY PRESSED INTO THE FLOOR I COULD NOT GET THE TIP OF MY SHOE UNDER TO PULL IT UP. I WAS TAKEN FOR A DEATH RIDE FOR 10 MINUTES. THE CAR SMELLED LIKE BURNING MOTOR! IF THERE WAS TRAFFIC THIS DAY I CANNOT THINK OF THE REPERCUSSIONS .

I RECENTLY PURCHASED A NEW JEEP RUBICON UNLIMITED AND HAD THE DEALER INSTALL A MOPAR 4 INCH FACTORY APPROVED LIFT KIT. THE KIT HAS A LOT OF ISSUES WITH IT AND NOT A WHOLE LOT OF ANSWERS TO FIX THEM. I WAS DRIVING THE VEHICLE WITH MY 13 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IN THE PASSENGER SEAT WHEN THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY AND WE HEADED INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. I WAS ABLE TO GET CONTROL OF THE JEEP ONLY BY SLAMMING ON THE BRAKES AND TURNING AWAY FROM THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THE DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN VERY HELPFUL WITH TRYING TO ANSWER MY QUESTIONS BUT THEY ARE NOW SAYING THIS IS A MOPAR PARTS ISSUE AND THEY ARE IN A HOLDING PATTERN UNTIL THEY CAN GET SOME ANSWERS. I CALLED MOPAR AND THEY SAID IT IS THE DEALERS RESPONSIBILITY AND CHRYSLER HAS THE FINAL SAY ABOUT THE REPAIR PROCESS. THE JEEP HAS LESS THAN 800 MILES ON IT AND IM IN A RENTAL MINIVAN. TOO COOL !!!!!! LIST OF ISSUES : ALIGNMENT CASTOR CANNOT BE CORRECTED TO FACTORY SPECS DUE TO LACK OF ADJUSTMENT. FRONT AXLE IS NOT CENTERED DUE TO LACK OF ADJUSTMENT STEERING DRAG LINK DIGS INTO INSIDE OF WHEEL AND KNOCKS OFF THE BALANCE WEIGHTS. THE TRACK BAR BRACKET IS NOT STRONG ENOUGH AND HAS BENT ALLOWING THE STABILIZER AND TRACK BAR TO HAVE EXCESSIVE PLAY. THESE ISSUES ALL DEAL WITH THE STEERING COMPONENTS AND WAS CAUSED BY THE INSTALLATION OF THIS LIFT KIT.

VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED NEW ON APRIL 16, 2015. MY WIFE DROVE 8 MILES TO SCHOOL AND THEN 6 MILES TO HER AUNT'S HOUSE. WHEN SHE PARKED SHE NOTICED CAR WAS SMOKING AND THE CAR CAUGHT FIRE SECONDS LATER. FIRE CONSUMED THE FRONT END OF JEEP BEFORE FIRE DEPARTMENT COULD GET HERE. THE FIRE STARTED UNDER THE HOOD ON THE RIGHT SIDE. *TR
