2016 Jeep Wrangler 4DR 4WD

The oil cooler housing exploded in my 2016 Jeep Wrangler. I put my car into reverse- I backed up and tried to put the car into drive. The car would not shift out of neutral for several minutes- 2 quarts of oil spilled onto the ground. My car eventually made its way to drive and has been steadily leaking oil since.

Torque Converter was replaced due to internal failure. Vehicle had 62k miles when torque converter was replaced. Issue arouse around 40k when vehicle would die when placed in reverse after cold start. AutoNation dealership did not cover cost since vehicle had went over 2k of the power train warranty. When I researched online, I came to realize that this is a common problem within the JK models which is upsetting to pay out of pocket cost for defect parts from the manufacturer.

I have a Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon 2016 that suddenly lost power in fast moving traffic with intermittent miss fire and blinking check engine light along with smoke and smell of burning oil. Looking into the engine from the top a large , deep pool of oil was sitting in the middle of the engine and working its way on to hot components of engine and exhausts and smoking. This could have easily become fire hazard in high temperature desert environment where running temperatures and hot exhaust pipes could start a fire. The engine miss fire and sudden loss of power was checked to be failing ignition coils and plugs that are supposed to be warrantied to 100K miles. The Pentastar V6 3.6 oil cooler was leaking badly and its effect could have been disasterous for the engine and car safety. The Oil Cooler faulty plastic design on this engine is a well known problem that Chrysler is refusing to address as recall on Wranglers sold . There are hundreds of complaints and cases of failure of this plastic component on the internet and the dealers are all well aware of it and happy to charge $2k for replacement. Chrysler and the dealer refused to admit the faulty oil cooler design and also would not accept ignition coil and spark plug replacement under the Std 80,000 miles California Emission Control warranty that come with all engines sold in CA. Chrysler is hiding this faulty design on Wranglers but accepted it on other Chrysler cars.

2016 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SPORT. Vehicle has 41,500 miles. 3.6 Liter Pentastar V6. Gushing oil from oil cooler on to the exhaust and smoking to the point of catching fire. Known issue from what I am reading online. I guess Chrysler is waiting for one of us Jeep owners to die in a car fire!! $1200 to replace.....UNACCEPTABLE that a recall has not been forced on Chrysler!!!!

My 2016 Jeep Wrangler with 53,000 miles on had the airbag light come on and when I went to have it checked it was due to a Occupant restraint control module malfunction. I was told this might not allow the airbags to deploy and that it could even deploy spontaneously. I have seem all kinds of recalls across the years for OCR related items(especially from FCA/Chrysler) https://www.automotiveworld.com/news-releases/chrysler-statement-occupant-restraint-control-orc-module/ You can inspect if you would like. Dealer noted the ORC was malfunctioning.

Power steering no longer works. Started at 41,000 miles. Replaced power steering pump and still doesn’t work. Mechanic thinks it’s probably the power steering box.

The contact owns a 2016 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated the EVAP canister error was displayed. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer where it was diagnosed that the filler neck going into the fuel tank was fractured. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The approximate failure mileage was 49,900.

The contact owns a 2016 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that the air bag warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a local dealer and diagnosed with needing the clock spring replaced however, the vehicle was not repaired. Upon investigation, the contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V288000 (Air Bags) however, the VIN was not included. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 69,000.

I am reporting a dangerous brake part on all of the later model wranglers. The front brake lines collapse because of a clamp holding the brake line. This happened to our 2016 Jeep Wrangler willys edition it is garaged and only has 25,342 miles. The dealer wanted 2700 to redo all of the front brakes. This is a cross section of both hoses below. I bought the replacement lines and they have the exact same defect. Poor engineering here. The metal should not clamp the hose but be rolled around it so the hose has some clearance. I do not know who to report this to but I paid the dealer $180 to lie to me about it needing calipers rotors and hoses. Took it home and I diagnosed the issue. Spent around $200 for new hoses and my labor to change them out and bleed the system. I have temporarily put on the oem lines but am looking for some better aftermarket alternatives as the replacement is crimped and will fail soon. The left front caliper seized up locally. Right one was bad also. So glad it seized near our neighborhood.

Oil filter housing/Oil cooler cracked. Dealership says its a common problem on 2014+ jeeps with 3.6 liter engine yet Jeep hasn't issued a recall. Dealer stated that this seems to happen around 50,000 miles on vehicle. No warning lights came on, noticed smoke coming from under hood when driving from oil falling onto exhaust. When pulled over large amount of oil was coming out from underside of Jeep. This happened with 43k miles on the vehicle which is right around where the dealer said they were seeing a large amount of failures for this part.

I was in a high speed impact collision rear ended at full speed and thrown into vehicle in front of me, me and my husband both suffered facial trauma as airbags did not deploy and both front seats twisted ans broke backwards in backseat where my 2 minor children were located.

The clock spring has gone out, 15 and older was issued a recall, my 2016 (built 2015) is not included and denied buy jeep. My airbag light has been on about 20,000 miles now.

The contact owns a 2016 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the Traction Control and ABS warning lights illuminated. The contact stated that as the warning lights illuminated, the vehicle decelerated and then attempted to regain traction control. The contact stated that the failure was intermittent. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The dealer was contacted and scheduled an appointment for May 2021 at 10:00 am. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 59,400.

AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING HAS BEEN RECALLED PREVIOUSLY ON THIS VEHICLE AND WAS REPLACED , BUT SAME ISSUE HAS OCCURED AGAIN, WITH AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ON AND NO HORN OR STEERING WHEEL CONTROLS. VEHICLE IS ONLY A 2016 AND SHOULD NOT HAVE THIS REOCCURING ISSUE.

ON THURSDSY 5/13/2021 AT APPROXIMATELY 5:15-5:20PM, I WAS DROPPING MY DAUGHTER OFF TO WORK AND I GOT BACK ON THE ROAD THEN THROUGH THE U-TURN TO GET BACK ON THE OTHER SIDE. I PROCEEDED TO ENTER THE ROADWAY INITIALLY ABOUT 10MPH AND ALL OF A SUDDEN, THE JEEP ACCELERATED TO ALMOST 80 MPH AND I SMASHED THE BRAKED AND IT WOULD NOT STOP AT ALL. THE RPM'S WERE STEADY GOING UP. I PULLED UP THE EMERGENCY BRAKE RIGHT BEFORE I ALMOST REAR ENDED THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME AT THE LIGHT GETTING READY 6O GO THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. I WAS ON THE BRAKE AT THE SAME TIME. ONCE THE CAR FINALLY CAME TO A STOP, THE ENGINE WAS STILL REVED UP. I PUT IN PARK AND TURNED THE VEHICLE OFF WITH THE IGNITION. I THEN RESTARTED AND WAS SCARED THE REST OF THE WAY HOME. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN THIS HAPPENED. THERE WAS NOTHING UNDER THE BRAKE. MY FLOOR MATS WERE FLUSH AND FLAT AND THE ACCELERATION WAS SO SCARY. I FEARED FOR MY LIFE. I HAVE NOT DRIVEN IT SINCE. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME TO BRING IT IN THE NEXT MORNING, FRIDAY THE 14TH AT 10 AM BUT THAT THEU WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO LOOK AT IT UNTIL 7-10 DAYS. I DID NOT BRING IT AS THIS WAS UNACCEPTABLE. I WILL CALL BACK AND SPEAK WITH SOMEONE ELSE FOR RESULTS. THE TECH EVEN TOLD ME THAT THIS HAPPENED TO HIS BROTHER THAT ALSO HAVE A JEEP. THERE ISN'T A RECALL FOR THIS THAT I'VE FOUND. SOMEONE WILL LOSE THEIR LIFE BECAUSE OF THIS MALFUNCTION. THIS IS A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY HAZARD.

ENGINE OIL COOLER ASSEMBLY LEAKING AT BACK OF ENGINE. OIL LEAKING DOWN BACK OF ENGINE AND BELL HOUSING CREATING A POSSIBLE FIRE. VERY HOT SMELL AND SMOKING FROM ENGINE BAY

I WAS TOLD THAT MY OIL FILTER HOUSING ADAPTER HAS A MAJOR LEAK. BUT, THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER. THERE ARE 40,000 PLUS ON BACK ORDER AND THE NUMBER WAS ORIGINALLY 60,000. IT JUST SEEMS THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AND THAT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL. MY ENGINE COULD SEIZE WHILE DRIVING IF I HAPPEN TO RUN OUT OF OIL AND IT COULD NOT ONLY INJURE MYSELF BUT SOMEONE ELSE AND I HAVE NO WAY OF GETTING THE PART ANYTIME SOON.

THE OIL FILTER CANISTER/OIL COOLER IS CRACKED AND IS LEAKING OIL. THIS IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO OUR MECHANIC AND SPOKE WITH THE DEALERSHIP THAT IT WAS BOUGHT FROM AND HAVE BEEN TOLD BY MANY OTHER PART HOUSES THAT THIS REPLACEMENT PART IS ON A 50,000 + PARTS BACK ORDER AND THAT IT CAN TAKE ANYWHERE FROM 20-60 DAYS TO GET THE PART IN TO REPLACE IT. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN WE NOTICED THE LEAK AND NEVER DRIVEN AGAIN AFTER THAT. THIS TELLS ME THAT THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE AND THAT THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS ISSUE. I UNDERSTAND THE MANUFACTURING SIDE OF THINGS BUT THAT IS A LARGE NUMBER FOR THE BACK ORDER.

AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON CAUSING MY AIR BAGS TO NOT DEPLOY IF I DO GET IN AN ACCIDENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER STOPPING AND ATTEMPTING TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AT APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE CRASHED INTO PASSENGER'S SIDE WHEEL AND FENDER OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE PASSENGER'S SIDE WHEEL WAS PUSHED UP INTO THE WHEEL WELL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS PUSHED LATERALLY APPROXIMATELY 7-10 FEET. THE FORCE OF THE IMPACT WENT THROUGH THE ENGINE BLOCK AND WENT OUT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. ADDITIONALLY, THE WINDSHIELD WAS CRACKED AND HOOD CLIP ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS SEVERED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT ASSUMED THAT THE OTHER VEHICLE WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH AT THE TIME OF IMPACT. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A TOW LOT BUT WAS NOT YET INSPECTED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES TO THE BACK AND NECK, AND A MINOR LACERATION TO THE RIGHT LEG. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED THAT HE MIGHT HAVE ALSO SUSTAINED POSSIBLE BRAIN AND SPINAL CORD INJURIES. THE OTHER DRIVER SUSTAINED A LACERATION TO THE LEFT LEG BELOW THE KNEE AND WAS TRANSPORTED FROM THE SCENE BY THE PARAMEDICS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE CHOSE NOT TO LEAVE WITH THE PARAMEDICS BECAUSE AT THE TIME HE FELT NO PAIN HOWEVER, LATER IN THE EVENING AND THROUGHOUT THE NIGHT, HE EXPERIENCED EXCRUCIATING PAIN. THE NEXT MORNING THE CONTACT WENT TO THE EMERGENCY ROOM TO SEEK MEDICAL ATTENTION. THERE WERE CT SCANS AND X-RAYS PERFORMED ON THE CONTACT. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V734000 (AIR BAGS) AND STATED THAT HE HAD NOT RECEIVED ANY INFORMATION OR NOTIFICATION FROM THE MANUFACTURER REGARDING THE RECALL FOR WHICH THE VIN WAS INCLUDED. NEITHER THE DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 90,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE STALLED HAS STALLED AT 30MPH AND AT 65 MPH WITH THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THIS HAS HAPPENED RANDOMLY AT LEAST FIVE TIMES IN THE PAST THREE MONTHS. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND DROVE AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TWICE TO GOOD BROTHERS DODGE RAM (577 COLUMBIAN ST, SOUTH WEYMOUTH, MA 02190, (781) 331-8300) HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE CONTACT CALLED QUIRK CHRYSLER JEEP (441 QUINCY AVE, BRAINTREE, MA 02184, (781) 917-1400) HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 71,000. *DT*JB

WHEN TRANSMISSION IS COLD AND IS PUT IN REVERSE IT WILL CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL AND STALLING OF THE VEHICLE. WHEN RESTARTED THE VEHICLE WILL RUN WITH A VERY ROUGH LOW RPM IDLE, HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES OVER LAST FEW MONTHS. WILL DOCUMENT FROM NOW ON WHEN IT DOES IT AGAIN.

MY VEHICLE HASN'T BEEN DRIVEN MUCH, I WORK FROM HOME, I NOTICED A POOL OF OIL UNDER IT, TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND HE OIL COOLER IS LEAKING.

ENGINE OIL COOLER IS OUT AND LEAKING OIL EVERYWHERE. THE VEHICLE IS NOT DRIVEABLE AND THE PART IS ON OVER A 45 DAY BACK ORDER. NO COMPANY WILL EVER TAKE MY VEHICLE IN DUE TO THE PART UNABLE TO BE ORDERED. EVERYONE SEEMS TO BE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. MY JEEP HAS 62K MILES ON IT AND IS MY DAILY DRIVER. THIS NEEDS TO BE RECALLED.

OIL COOL IS LEAKING AFTER COLD WEATHER

THE OIL FILTER HOUSING IS MADE OF PLASTICS AND IT CRACKS AND OIL LEAKS ON TO EXHAUST WHICH COULD CAUSE A FIRE AND ALSO ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUER DUE TO OIL LEAKING ON GROUND. THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM WITH THE JEEP PENTASTAR 3.6 V6 ENGINE. AFTER CONTACTING JEEP DEALERS TO FIX LEAK THEY TELL ME THE PART IS ON BACK ORDER DUE TO SO MANY JEEP AND CARS THAT HAVE THIS PART. THE NUMBER THEY GAVE ME IS OVER 40,000 AND TIME FRAME OF GETTING ONE COULD BE A MONTH. THIS EXPLAINS WHY JEEP DROP POWER TRAIN WARRANTY FROM 100,000 MILES TO 60,000. I NOTICED A LITTLE LEAK AT 65,000 MILE AND NOW AT 70,000 MILES YOU HAVE TO KEEP ADDING OIL OR PARK IT DUE TO MAYBE IT CATCHING ON FIRE. ONE DEALER TOLD ME HE HAD 30 VEHICLE SITTING ON LOT WAITING ON PART.I FEEL JEEP SHOULD HAVE A RE-CALL FOR THIS ISSUER. NOW I HAVE A JEEP THAT I CAN'T USE FOR A MONTH OR MORE IF LUCKY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 45-50 MPH, THERE WAS A BURNING OIL SMELL DETECTED INSIDE THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT PARKED THE VEHICLE AND SAW THERE WAS OIL LEAKING FROM THE VEHICLE ONTO THE GROUND. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE FAILURE WAS DIAGNOSED AS A CRACKED OIL COOLER THAT LEAKED INTO THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. THE CONTACT INFORMED A JEEP DEALER OF THE FAILURE BUT THE PART TO REPAIR WAS ON BACK ORDER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 70,000.

TYPICALLY ON FIRST START OF THE DAY IN COLD WEATHER (SUB 40DEGREES) WITH FOOT ON THE BRAKE WHILE IN PUTTING THE JEEP INTO REVERSE CAUSES IT TO LURCH BACKWARDS, DROP IDLE AND THEN STALL WHILE IN GEAR.

COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER ON HIGHWAY MULTIPLE TIMES. EVERY LIGHT ON DASH FLASHES AND HEADLIGHTS FLICKER

BETWEEN 41,258 MILES AND LESS THAN 43,000 MILES, FRONT BRAKE CALIPERS LOCKED UP. HUSBAND THROWN FORWARD TOWARD WINDSHIELD -- WITHOUT APPLYING THE BRAKES -- AT CITY DRIVING SPEED BUT WAS SAVED BY HIS SEATBELT FROM GOING THROUGH THE WINDSHIELD. IT ALSO FELT LIKE THE BRAKES WERE VERY GRABBY EARLIER ON THAT TRIP AND MORE ACCELERATION WAS NEEDED TO MAKE THE CAR TRAVEL FORWARD AS THE WHEELS SEEMED NOT TO MOVE FREELY, LIKE THEY WERE BEING HELD BACK. ROTORS SEVERELY SCORED, COULDN'T BE MACHINED. BOTH FRONT CALIPERS, ROTORS, HOSES, PADS, LINES, FLUIDS ALL REQUIRED REPLACEMENT ACCORDING TO KOONS TYSONS JEEP IN VIENNA, VA. IN A 2 SECOND GOGGLE SEARCH OF JEEP OWNER'S FORUM BRAKE COMPLAINTS, THERE ARE OVER 300 SIMILAR BRAKE CALIPER AND LOCKING UP COMPLAINTS FOR 3RD GENERATION WRANGLER VEHICLES BETWEEN 2007 AND 2017. THE DEALERSHIP SHARED WITH US THAT THE NEW PARTS THEY USED FOR OUR FRONT BRAKE REPAIR ARE THE RE-ENGINEERED OEM PARTS DESIGNED BY JEEP AND THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE ORIGINAL FRONT BRAKE PARTS THAT SHIPPED ON THESE VEHICLES FROM THE FACTORY (YET THERE IS NO RECALL TO DATE -- IF JEEP RE-DESIGNED THE ORIGINAL PARTS, THEY CLEARLY KNOW THERE IS A SAFETY ISSUE HERE, PLUS THEY SUPPLY THE JEEP OWNER'S FORUM??). WE WERE GIVEN AN INVOICE OF $1,500+ FOR THE FRONT BRAKE REPAIRS. WE CONTACTED JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE WHO DENIED KNOWLEDGE OF THIS FRONT BRAKE SAFETY ISSUE. THEY ASKED THE DEALERSHIP TO WORK WITH US TO DISCOUNT THE PRICE AS WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 36,000 MILES, BUT JEEP DID NOT DO ANYTHING FOR US DIRECTLY. JEEP DID ACKNOWLEDGE ON THE PHONE THAT THEY MAY NEED THEIR RECALL DIVISION TO LOOK INTO THIS SAFETY ISSUE. WE ALSO HAPPENED TO DISCUSS THIS ISSUE WITH OUR SON, WHO THEN TOLD US HE HAD THE SAME BRAKE ISSUES WITH HIS 2016 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WHICH HAD TO HAVE 3 BRAKE REPAIRS FOR THIS ISSUE BEFORE HE GOT RID OF IT BECAUSE HE WAS AFRAID TO DRIVE IT.

SPOKE WITH BRITTANY ABOUT THE ISSUE WITH THE NAVIGATION SYSTEM (ERROR MESSAGES). TOLD HER THAT THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE ENTIRE RADIO MUST BE REPLACED AND WILL BE ROUGHLY $600. BRITTANY TOLD ME THAT UCONNECT AND GARMIN MAKE THE PRODUCTS IN THE JEEP PERTAINING TO THOSE ISSUES. I TOLD BRITTANY THAT I HAD SPOKEN TO MULTIPLE PEOPLE AT BOTH OF THOSE COMPANIES AND THEY ALL SAID THAT THE ISSUES I AM HAVING ARE ALL A JEEP PROBLEM. I TOLD BRITTANY THAT THE RESEARCH I HAVE DONE HAS INDICATED THAT THIS ISSUE IS A KNOWN JEEP PROBLEM. BRITTANY TOLD ME THAT THEY HAVE RECEIVED MANY CALLS AND HAVE HAD MANY CLAIMS REGARDING THIS ISSUE WITH JEEPS AS NEW AS 2018, 2019, AND 2020 MODELS. THEY ALSO HAVE MANY CALLS AND CLAIMS REGARDING THIS ISSUE IN OLDER MODEL VEHICLES AS WELL. SHE STATED THAT THERE HAVE BEEN ATTEMPTS BY CUSTOMERS TO GET THE COST OF THESE ISSUES COVERED, AND THEY HAVE BEEN DENIED EACH TIME. BRITTANY ADDED MY NAME/VEHICLE/ISSUE TO THE CLAIMS REGARDING THIS ISSUE. SHE SAID THAT IF THERE WAS A RECALL OR EXTENDED WARRANTY REGARDING THIS THEN I WOULD RECEIVE INFORMATION IN THE MAIL. I TOLD HER I WAS GOING TO GET THE ISSUE FIXED THROUGH THE DEALERSHIP AND ASKED ABOUT REIMBURSEMENT IF THIS RECALL OR EXTENDED WARRANTY WERE TO COME OUT. SHE TOLD ME THAT IF EITHER THE RECALL OR WARRANTY DO COME OUT, I SHOULD KEEP MY RECEIPT FROM THE REPAIR AND I CAN GET REFUNDED FOR THE FULL COST OF THE PARTS/LABOR/TAXES/ETC. I ALSO ASKED ABOUT IF THIS REFUND WOULD APPLY IF THE EXTENDED WARRANTY WERE GRANTED SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS MADE IN CANADA, AND SHE TOLD ME I WOULD STILL GET THE REFUNDED AMOUNT. I EXPRESSED MY CONCERN WITH WARRANTIES BEING VOIDED WHEN THE VEHICLE CROSSES THE BOARDER (EVEN THOUGH MY VEHICLE IS PAST THE TIME FOR THE JEEP WARRANTY) BECAUSE A JEEP IS A JEEP AND THEY ARE ALL MADE THE SAME REGARDLESS OF WHERE I LIVE. SHE HEARD MY COMPLAINT BUT WAS UNABLE TO HELP

VEHICLE HAS ONLY 20,000 MILES ON IT. GARAGE KEPT. BRAKES FAILED. NEEDS NEW BRAKE PADS, NEW ROTORS, AND NEW SPEED SENSORS. $850 WORTH OF WORK. THIS IS RIDICULOUS FOR A CAR WITH SUCH LOW MILEAGE. WILL NEVER BUY ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT.

AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON IN JEEP, TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE MODULAR THAT CONTROLS THE ENTIRE AIRBAG SYSTEM AND HE COULDN'T GUARANTEE THE AIRBAGS WOULD DEPLOY. THE WARRANTY EXPIRED AT 36,000 (IT HAS 39,000) AND IT WOULD BE $900 TO FIX.

ON COLD DAYS AFTER THE JEEP HAS BEEN SITTING OVERNIGHT, THE ENGINE WILL STALL WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE JEEP IS STARTED AND IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IF THE CAR IS RUNNING FOR 30 SECONDS BEFORE IT IS SHIFTED OR RUNNING FOR 3 MINUTES, THE ENGINE WILL STALL WHEN SHIFTING INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE. THIS HAPPENED LAST WINTER AND HAS STARTED DOING IT AGAIN NOW THAT ITS COLD.

ENGINE OIL COOLER FAIL, EXTREME FIRE HAZARD. SMALL AMOUNT OF OIL FOUND ON DRIVEWAY WHILE PARKED, ATTEMPTED TO LOCATE SOURCE BY STARTING ENGINE. OIL FLOODED OUT OF THE ENGINE, STREAMING DOWN THE ENGINE TO THE FRAME. HAD MY WIFE DRIVEN THE JEEP TO WORK IT WOULD'VE PROBABLY CAUGHT FIRE ONCE THE OIL REACHED THE EXHAUST.

I NOTICED AN OIL BURNING SMELL AND UPON FURTHER INSPECTION SAW OIL ALL OVER THE UNDERCARRIAGE OF MY VEHICLE INCLUDING THE TRANSMISSION AND EXHAUST . LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD AND NOTICED OIL UNDERNEATH MY ENGINE COVER BY THE OIL FILTER HOUSING. SO NOW EVERY TIME I DRIVE IT SMELLS LIKE IT'S ON FIRE. SO I GUESS THEY ARE NOT WORRIED ABOUT THE PEOPLE WHO BUY THEIR VEHICLES BURNING UP.

I HAVE GONE THROUGH OVER 4 SETS OF MUD TERRAIN TIRES OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS THAT ARE UNEVENLY WORN AND NO ONE KNEW WHY. MOST RECENTLY, THE REAR RIGHT TIRE HAD A SIDEWALL GASH AND HAD A FLAT TIRE, WE BEGAN SMELLING SMOKE AND ENDED UP TAKING THE JEEP INTO BRAKEMASTERS AND WAS TOLD THE ENTIRE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WAS FAILING AND FALLING APART. WE HAD THE REAR DIFF REPLACED, BRAKES, ROTORS AND PAID $5000 OUT OF POCKET AND AS I WAS DRIVING FROM HOME TO TUCSON THE OTHER DAY TO MY MATERNITY APPOINTMENT, THE BACK RIGHT TIRE BEGAN SCREECHING WHILE NOT BRAKING AND BEGAN SIZZLING AND BURNING WITH OIL COMING OUT FROM THE TIRE. I IMMEDIATELY STOPPED AT THE NEAREST BRAKEMASTERS AND THEY SAID THAT AN ENTIRELY NEW REAR DIFFERENTIAL IS NEEDED. NOT ONLY COULD THE JEEP HAVE CAUGHT ON FIRE WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE BUT I KEPT LOSING CONTROL OF THE STEERING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY WITH A 2 YEAR OLD AND ONE ON THE WAY. I AM HOPING TO SEE SOME SORT OF RESOLUTION ON THIS AND TO BE COMMUNICATED WITH OTHER JEEP OWNERS OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HIS WIFE WAS DRIVING AT UNKNOWN SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MCKINNEY DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM & USED CARS (4574 CALHOUN MEMORIAL HWY, EASLEY, SC 29640, (864) 859-1981) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THE CLOCKSPRING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MECHANIC INFORMED CONTACT THE STEERING WHEEL HAD BEEN TURNED TO MANY TIMES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED HOWEVER, NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 43,000.

BRAKES SEIZED UP WITH ONLY 37,000 MILES. IT REQUIRED A FULL FRONTAL BRAKE REBUILD. THE MECHANICS SAID THIS SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED WITH SUCH LOW MILEAGE AND YEAR. BECAUSE THEY WERE "SEIZED" UP, IT CAUSED EVERYTHING TO HEAT UP AND RUINED THE CALIPERS, PAD AND ROTARS. IT WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WHEN WE TOOK IT IN TO THE MECHANIC.

THE BRAKES KEEP GETTING LOCKED UP. I"VE HAD THE CAR SINCE MAY 2020 AND HAVE HAD THE CAR TOWED TWICE AND THE FRONT AND BACK BRAKES DONE TWICE AS WELL. NOT TO MENTION, TODAY I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED AGAIN AND STILL DONT KNOW WHAT THE "FIX" WILL COST

DEATH WOBBLE - THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE OWNING THE JEEP - PAID OUT OF POCKET FOR NEW TRACK BAR (DIDN'T FIX PROBLEM) - TOOK JEEP TO DOMINION OF BEDFORD (JEEP DEALER) THEY SAID THEY COULDNT FIND ANYTHING LOOSE ON FRONT END AND RECOMMENDED GETTING VEHICLE ALIGNED (PAID OUT OF POCKET TO DOMINION OF BEDFORD) - HAD VEHICLE ALIGNED (ALMOST $300, DIDN'T FIX PROBLEM) - TOOK JEEP TO A DIFFERENT MECHANIC AND THEY ADVISED NOTHING COULD BE FOUND THAT WAS LOOSE - EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN OPERATING AT HIGHWAY SPEED BECAUSE THERE IS VERY LITTLE CONTROL OF VEHICLE AND WHEN I'M ON THE HIGHWAY I CAN'T JUST SLOW DOWN WITHOUT POSSIBLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT - WE HAVE RECEIVED NO NOTICES FROM JEEP ABOUT THIS ISSUE OR WHAT THEY ARE DOING TO FIX THE PROBLEM

THE JEEP WRANGLER HAS 37K MILES AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE BREAK CALIBER LOCKED UP. WHEN THIS FIRST OCCURRED/IDENTIFIED THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY DOING 70 MPH. WHEN BREAKING THE JEEP MADE A STRONG PULL TO THE RIGHT ALMOST SENDING THE VEHICLE OFF THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD..

THE OIL FILTER HOUSING ASSEMBLY IS MADE OF PLASTIC THAT CRACKS. THIS LEADS TO OIL LEAKING AND SEVERAL INCHES OF OIL SITS IN THE V OF THE HOT ENGINE UNTIL IT SPILLS OVER. THIS IS A DEFINITE FIRE HAZARD. FCA NEEDS TO RECALL WITH A REDESIGNED PART MADE OF METAL. I HAVE ALREADY REPLACED MINE TWICE IN 1 YR. REPLACING IT WITH THE SAME PART IS NOT FIXING IT. FAILED AT 29K MILES AND NOW AT 42K MILES. THIS IS A $1000 REPAIR EACH TIME. MINE WAS COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY BUT THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE QUALITY AND PRACTICES. I NOTICED OIL LEAKING UNDERNEATH THE ENGINE AGAIN AND THIS TIME I THOUGHT IT WAS THE REAR MAIN SEAL. I NOTICED BURNT OIL IN THE V OF THE ENGINE BLOCK AS WELL. TO MY SUPRISE, SAME PART HAS FAILED ALREADY. PARTS FAILING AT THIS LOW OF MILEAGE ARE A DESIGN FLAW THAT IS BEING IGNORED BY FCA. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. OH... ONE LAST THING..WHILE THE MECHANIC HAD IT APART, HE NOTICED THE HEAD GASKET WAS LEAKING TOO SO HE REPLACED THAT AT 29K MILES. NO WONDER CHRYSLER/FIAT IS THE WORST CAR MAKER IN THE WORLD.

RANDOMLY DRIVING ON THE ROAD AT VARIOUS SPEEDS THIS JEEP WILL SUDDENLY UNEXPECTEDLY BEGIN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND CAUSES THE DRIVER TO BE UNABLE TO SAFELY CONTROL THE VEHICLE. JEEP DEALERSHIP DOES NOT GUARANTEE IT CAN FIX THE PROBLEM BUT IS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. OTHER MECHANICS ARE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND ARE UNABLE TO FIX IT. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AT MULTIPLE SPEEDS ON THE CITY STREETS AND AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY. IT HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING STRAIGHT AND IT ALSO HAPPENS WHEN TURNING. THIS VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED OR INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT YET BUT IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE

RECALL # S40, NHTSA 16V-288 NEEDS TO BE EXPANDED!!! MY CLOCKSPIRING ASSEMBLY IS BAD IN MY VEHICLE, AND MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. THE DEALERSHIP SAID IF I GET IN AN ACCIDENT THE AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY. THERE IS A RECALL OUT FOR CERTAIN 2016 RHD VEHICLES FOR THE CLOCK SPRING ASSEMBLY. CERTAIN VEHICLES MANUFACTURED BETWEEN 2011 AND MAY OF 2016 FALL INTO THE RECALL. MY VEHICLE WAS MANUFACTURED DURING THAT TIME, HOWEVER FOR SOME REASON MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED IN THIS RECALL-WHY? THE SAME CLOCK SPRING THAT WAS RECALLED IN CERTAIN VIN NUMBERS HAS GONE BAD IN MY VEHICLE ALSO-WHICH IS A RIGHT HAND DRIVE. SPEAKING WITH CHRYSTLER DIRECTLY ABOUT THIS THEY SAID THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO BECAUSE MY VIN NUMBER IS NOT INCLUDED! THIS IS NOT OK! IT IS AN ISSUE EFFECTING AIR BAD DEPLOYMENT! I AM A RURAL MAIL CARRIER-AND I AM RISKING MY LIFE EVERY DAY. IF A VEHICLE REAR ENDS ME OR HITS ME-MY AIR BAD WILL NOT DEPLOY AND THATS MY LIFE! FOR CHRYSTLER TO KNOW ABOUT THIS ISSUE IN VEHICLES AND NOT TAKE CARE OF IT IN MINE IS NOT OK! AND I EXPECT SOMETHING TO BE DONE!

AFTER DRIVING FOR ABOUT 20 MINS THE RADIATOR FAN WOULD RUN AT FULL SPEED TO COOL THE ENGINE. TOOK IT TO THE SHOP 12/31/2019 AND THE DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT THE RADIATOR WAS LEAKING WITH NO WARNING. THE SERVICE ADVISOR CLAIMED THAT RUNNING THE HEAT TOO HIGH INSIDE THE VEHICLE PROBABLY CAUSED THE RADIATOR TO CRACK AND LEAK... THE VEHICLE ONLY HAD 40K MILES ON IT WHEN THE RADIATOR WAS REPLACED AND WAS NOT COVERED UNDER FACTORY WARRANTY.

MY WIFE HAS HAD HER GAS PEDAL STICK ON HER ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, AND I HAVE HAD IT STICK ON ME ONCE (10-4-20). THE FIRST TIME IT DID IT TO HER WAS ABOUT A MONTH OR SO AGO, AND THEN IT DID IT TO HER TWICE THIS MORNING ON HER WAY TO WORK (10-9-20). IT SEEMS TO ONLY DO IT UNDER A HARD ACCELERATION. THE PEDAL WILL DROP TO THE FLOOR, RPM WILL SHOOT UP, AND IT WILL NOT DISENGAGE FOR A GOOD 10 SECONDS OR SO. I HAVE VERIFIED THAT THE FLOOR MATT IS NOT OBSTRUCTING THE PATH OF THE PEDAL. THIS SEEM STO BE A COMMON PROBLEM AMONG THE JK JEEPS, BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE ABOUT IT.

HORN SOUNDS ONLY AFTER A VERY FORCEFUL/PURPOSEFUL PUSH ON THE STEERING WHEEL HORN PAD AND THEN ONLY AFTER A MOMENTARY DELAY (I SUPPOSE AFTER "RELAYS" ARE ACTIVATED). ADDITIONALLY, THERE IS NO OPTION FOR A LIGHT, FRIENDLY "BEEP" (FOR INSTANCE TO SAY "HELLO" TO A NEIGHBOR OR AWAKEN ANOTHER DRIVER SITTING AT A LIGHT AFTER IT'S TURNED GREEN).

VEHICLE WITH APPROXIMATELY 58000 MILES WAS PARKED IN DRIVEWAY. WHEN TURNING THE KEY TO ON, A HISSING SOUND AND A STRONG SMELL OF GASOLINE CAME FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE JEEP. TURNED OFF VEHICLE, AND EXITED THE CAR TO SEE A TWO FOOT WIDE PUDDLE OF GASOLINE UNDER THE CAR. . REPAIR SHOP INDICATED FAILURE OF PRESSURIZED GAS LINE COMING FROM TOP OF THE GAS TANK. IF AN IGNITION SOURCE HAD BEEN PRESENT THE CAR WOULD HAVE CAUGHT ON FIRE. VEHICLE HAD BEEN DRIVEN APPROXIMATELY 14 MILES THAT DAY WITH NO ISSUES, THE FAILURE IN THE GAS LINE WAS SUDDEN AND COMPLETE.

CLOCKSPRING IS CAUSING THE AIR BAG LIGHT TO STAY ILLUMINATED. CLOCKSPRING CONTROLS TURN SIGNAL, FLASHERS, DEPLOYMENT OF AIR BAGS, ETC. IF I HAVE AN ACCIDENT THE AIR BAGS MAY NOT EVEN DEPLOY. THAT IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE TO ME AND SHOULD BE FOR ALL DRIVERS.

HAVE HAD TO HAVE MOST IF NOT ALL FRONT OF VEHICLE REPLACED WITH BALL JOINTS AND UPPER RIGHT AXLE THE LATEST. NOW I HAVE A DECA CODE 0198 FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND NOW THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING HOT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE DOTHAN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM FIAT DEALER LOCATED AT 4074 ROSS CLARK CIR, DOTHAN, AL 36303, AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ON THE VIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 77,000.

WHEN I CRANK MY VEHICLE AND PLACE IT IN DRIVE THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON AND THE BREAKING SYSTEM BEGINS TO LOCK DOWN THE BRAKES AND CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO JERK TO A STOP. THIS IS HAPPENING WHILE I AM ON THE PUBLIC ROADWAY. THE DOWNHILL BREAKING ENGAGES WHEN ALL OF THIS IS GOING ON. SOMETIMES IT WILL CLEAR ITSELF OFF AND THE VEHICLE OPERATES NORMALLY TILL THE NEXT DAY.

I WAS ON A MAJOR CITY STREET BEHIND A SLOW MOVING VEHICLE. I MADE A MANUVER TO PASS THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME AND THE CAR ACCERERATED ON IT'S OWN. I COULD ACTUALLY FEEL THE GAS PEDAL BEING PULLED DOWN (AS MY FOOT WAS STILL GENTLY ON THE PEDAL). I IMMEDIATELY LIFTED MY FOOT OFF THE GAS PEDAL. THE CAR CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE. THE CAR REACHED 36 MPH QUICKLY APPROACHING ANOTHER VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WHICH NOW WAS STOPPED. I IMMEDIATLEY STEPPED ON THE BRAKES HARD. THE CAR STOPPED AND THE RED WARNING LIGHT FOR THE THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR LIT ON THE DASH. I AM A CAR DEALER AND AN EXPERIENCED DRIVER WITH PROFESSIONAL DRIVER TRAINING. I FEEL MOST PEOPLE WOULD HAVE EXPERIENCED AN ACCIDENT. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO MY SERVICE DEPARTMENT WHERE WE PUT THE MANUFACTUER DIAGNOSTIC TOOL ON THE VEHICLE. WE WERE ABLE TO DOWNLOAD THE REPORT. I ALSO TOOK PHOTOS OF THE DASH AND REPORTED TO THE FACTORY SERVICE REP AND FIELD TECHNICAL SPECIALIST.

I HAD THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COME ON AND IT WAS READING A P0302 CODE. THIS CODE IS ASSOCIATED WITH THE "PENTASTAR TICK". I KNEW THAT THIS MEANT THAT THE CYLINDER HEAD MAY BE CRACKED AS THERE ARE MANY JEEP OWNERS THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME ISSUE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER SHIP AND THEY CONFIRMED THAT THE CYLINDER HEAD WAS DEFECTIVE.*DT*JB

2016 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT WITH ONLY 20,000 MILES HAS, FOR SECOND TIME IN ONE YEAR, A FAULTY ESC SYSTEM AND IT MALFUNCTIONS CAUSING THE BRAKE SYSTEM TO ACTIVATE, LOSS OF POWER, AND SUDDEN STEERING CHANGES. NISSAN BROTHERS HAD SUPPOSEDLY FIXED THIS ISSUE THE FIRST TIME...

AIRBAG LIGHT BEGAN TO ILLUMINATE ON AND OFF SUDDENLY WITHOUT REASON AFTER STARTING THE CAR. NOW THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS STEADY ON. MECHANIC RAN FAULT CODES AND RECEIVED ABOUT 15 FAULT CODES ON COMPUTER RELATED TO AIRBAG SYSTEM AND SRS. APPEARS TO BE SOME SORT OF MAJOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEM.

WHEN I AM TURNING LEFT THE ABS LIGHTS AND STABILITY LIGHTS TURN ON. THERE IS ALSO A WEIRD NOISE. I WENT TO A MECHANIC AND THEY SAID IT IS A CLOCK SPRING ASSEMBLY. THEY ALSO SAID IT IS COMMON FOR THE JEEP WRANGLERS TO HAVE THEM REPLACED.

2016 JEEP WRANGLER 4X4 EXPERIENCING ELECTRICAL ISSUES. THE WIPERS STAY ON AT ALL TIMES, WIPER SWITCH DOES NOT WORK. LIGHTS STAY ON AT ALL TIMES, SWITCH DOES NOT WORK. HORN DOES NOT WORK. BLINKERS DO NO WORK. HIGH/LOW BEAM ALSO INOPERABLE. DASH LIGHTS EXTREMELY LOW, CAN BARELY SEE THEM AND WE ARE 35 YR OLD OWNERS WITH GOOD 20/25 VISION. FOR LACK OF BETTER WORDS OR MECHANICAL TERMS, HAVING A VEHICLE WITH THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE IS LIKE DRIVING SOMETHING POSSESSED. TIPM ON THIS VEHICLES ARE KNOWN TO BE FAULTY AND FCA HAS AGREED TO RECALL CERTAIN VEHICLES WITH SIMILAR ISSUES. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN ISSUED CAME TO LIGHT.

IN LAST 4 YEARS OR SO OF OWNERSHIP THE REAR BRAKES HAVE GONE BAD TWICE. SERVICE WAS PERFORMED AT FAIR OAKS JEEP DODGE RAM IN CHANTILLY, VA. THIS SEEMS EXCESSIVE. REPORTING IN CASE OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING SAME ISSUES.

A COMMON NUMBER 4 CYLINDER MISFIRE THAT SEEMS TO COMMON ON ALL JEEP FORUMS. THE CODE WAS FOUND TO BE A NO COMPRESSION IN THE CYLINDER. ALTHOUGH SO MANY PEOPLE COMPLAIN OF THIS ISSUE, JEEP DOESN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS? MY ENGINE IS 4 YEARS OLD AND I'M BEING TOLD I NEED A NEW ENGINE AND IT'S NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

WHEN STARTING CAR -ESPECIALLY IN COLD WEATHER-AND BACKING OUT OF PARKING AREA ENGINE WILL STALL/JAR AND AT TIMES DIE OUT REQUIRING PUTTING INTO PARK AND RESTARTING. CONCERN IS IF THIS HAPPENS IN TRAFFIC IT WILL CAUSE AN ACCIDENT NOT BEING MOVED FAST ENOUGH. THERE IS A WARRANTY ON THE VEHICLE AND THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR 6MO + AND IS CONTINUOUSLY QUESTIONED AND EVALUATED. WE'VE BEEN TOLD IT HAS OCCURRED IN OTHER JEEPS AND THERE IS A FIX BUT THIS HAS YET TO BE CORRECTED FOR THIS VEHICLE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHAKE ABNORMALLY, AND THE VEHICLE BECAME DIFFICULT TO STEER. THE CONTACT STATED NO WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED. THE FAILURE RECURRED AFTER GOING OVER A MINOR BUMP IN THE ROADWAY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO VIDEON CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 4951 WEST CHESTER PIKE NEWTOWN SQUARE, PA 19073, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE STEERING DAMPER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS SIMILAR TO THE FAILURE LISTED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V201000 (STEERING). THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 84,000.

WHILE SITTING STILL I STARTED MY JEEP AND ON MY INSTRUMENT PANEL THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON, THE FIRST FEW HOURS IT WOULD COME ON AND GO OFF INTERMITTENTLY, NOW IT'S ON ALL OF THE TIME. WHEN I TOOK IT TO A DEALERSHIP THEY SAID IT WAS THE CLOCK SPRING WHICH COSTS $410 FOR THE PART ALONE AND INFORMED ME THAT THEY ARE ON BACK ORDER WHICH TELLS ME THERE MUST BE A LOT OF JEEPS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. WHEN I ASKED THEM IF THAT MEANT MY AIRBAG MAY DEPLOY AT ANY TIME SHE SAID NO QUITE THE OPPOSITE IT MEANT IT WOULD NOT DEPLOY AT ALL. I AM A MAIL CARRIER AND HAVE SPOKEN TO OTHER 2016 RHD JEEP OWNERS AND THEY HAD RECALLS TO REPAIR THEIRS BUT MINE DIDN'T MAKE THE RECALL LIST. MY JEEP IS MY LIVELIHOOD, NOW I HAVE TO WORRY THAT IF I'M INVOLVED IN A COLLISION I'M AT A MUCH HIGHER RISK FOR INJURY OR FATALITY. *TR

THE WHEEL SPEED SENSORS ARE NOTORIOUS TO GIVE OUT IN THESE VEHICLES. EVEN AT LOW MILEAGE. THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON LIMITING PERFORMANCE AND CAUSING ISSUES REQUIRING IMMEDIATE SERVICE. THEIR ARE MANY JEEP OWNERS I HAVE ENCOUNTERED WITH THIS ISSUE AND IT CAN BE EITHER LOCATION OR INAPPROPRIATE GUARD TO COVER WIRING. JEEP STATES IT IS PART OF MAINTENANCE BUT A SIMPLE PLASTIC COVER WOULD ALLEVIATE A LOT OF THE ISSUES THAT MAY BE ASSOCIATED TO DEBRI OR CAUSING FAULTY.

MY DAUGHTER HAD HER RIGHT HAND PINKY FINGER TOP SEMI AMPTUATED WITH A TUFT FRACTURE WITH THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR OF THE STRIKER AND LATCH. THIS HAPPENED ON JAN 2019 AND WE PAID OVER 10K IN MEDICAL BILLS AND HER PINKY IS DISFIGURED. WE HAVEN'T REACH OUT TO LAWYERS BUT WE DO SEE A FLAW WITH THE STRIKER AND DOOR SETUP WITH THE 4 DOOR JEEPS THAT A REDESIGN OR COVER WOULD HELP. THE ISSUE IS ANY BOOSTER SEAT OR CHILD CAR SEAT PUTS A TODDLER OR KIDS HAND/FINGERS AT RISK WHICH FALL WITHIN 1-2 INCHES FROM THE BRACKET OF THE DOOR OF THE ARM REST OF MOST MAJOR BRAND SEATS. THIS SITS LEVEL TO THE STRIKER AND LATCH. THE PROXIMITY OF THE SEATBELT AND THE LEVEL AT THE DOOR STRIKER IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR LITTLE ONES SITTING IN BACK. THERE IS NO GUARD OR BARRIER TO PREVENT FROM TINY FINGER BEING CAUGHT IN THE STACK AND BEING STRUCK BY THE DOOR OR STRIKER. FROM THE INSIDE, WITH THE DOOR CLOSED, YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE REAR DOOR STRIKER AND LATCH. NOT ONLY FINGERS BUT HAIR TOO IS A PROBLEM. THIS IS CONCERNING TO US EVERY TIME WE PUT OUR LITTLE ONES IN THE BACK. IF NEED BE I CAN SEND A VIDEO OF IT AND REPLICATE THE RISK. I DID CONTACT A NEWS AGENCY BUT WAITING TO HEAR FROM THEM.*DT*JB*DT*JS*DT*JB

THE VEHICLES AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND THE BUTTONS ON THE STEERING WHEEL NOW FAIL TO WORK. LOOKED ONLINE FOUND IT IS THE CLOCK SPRING. THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE BUT THIS VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THAT RECALL. DEALER QUOTE TO FIX THIS ISSUE IS 679.00

I REPLACED A SINGLE ROLLER ROCKER ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ENGINE EARLY IN 2019. NOW I AM LOOKING AT A FAILED ROLLER ROCKER ON THE SAME SIDE OF THE ENGINE AND POTENTIALLY AN ENGINE REPLACEMENT.

2016 JEEP WRANGLER JKU WITH 60119 MILES AT DISCOVERY OF ISSUES BY DEALERSHIP. CHRYSLER WAS TO COVER MAINTENANCE ON BLOWN HEAD ENGINE HEAD GASKETS FOLLOWING INSPECTION. ON 23FEB20 I NOTICED EXCESSIVE VAPOR COMING OUT OF MY EXHAUST ON MY WAY HOME, I CHECKED MY COOLANT AND OIL TO SEE IF THERE WERE ANY PROBLEMS FINDING LOW COOLANT LEVELS HOWEVER IT WAS STILL WITHIN NORMAL RANGE. IT WAS DETERMINED MY HEAD GASKET WAS DAMAGED AND A REPAIR WAS NECESSARY. THE DEALERSHIP RECOMMENDED THE ADDITIONAL REPLACEMENT OF THE RADIATOR WHICH CHRYSLER WAS INFORMED OF GIVEN TERMS FOR COVERING THE REPAIR OF THE VEHICLE AS THE FAILURE OCCURRED RIGHT AT WARRANTY. I FOUND THE ENGINE WAS STILL HAVING A PROBLEM WITH AIR IN THE RADIATOR/COOLANT LINE AND IMMEDIATELY TOOK MY VEHICLE BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A COOLANT PURGE. DURING INSPECTION THE CHRYSLER MASTER MECHANIC NOTICED THE MAIN COOLANT FAN WAS NOT OPERATING AS EXPECTED. THE MAIN COOLANT FAN OPERATION WAS INTERMITTENT WHICH WOULD HAVE CAUSED A LONG TERM OVERHEATING AS THE ROOT CAUSE FAILURE OF THE HEAD GASKET WHICH WAS TO DETERMINED BY THE CHRYSLER FACILITY TO HAVE BEEN FAILING OVER THE LAST 10,000 MILES. CHRYSLER WAS CONTACTED AND APPROVED MAINTENANCE AS WITH THE OTHER FAILED ITEMS. I CONTACTED WORLD JEEP AGAIN AND WAS ABLE TO START MY VEHICLE AND DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR MAINTENANCE INSPECTION. DEALERSHIP FOUND GASKET INSTALLED WAS DEFECTIVE, THE HEATER CORE WAS CLOGGED UNABLE TO PROVIDE HEAT IN THE CAB AND THE ENGINE HAD A KNOCKING NOISE. CHRYSLER WAS CONTACTED TO RECOMMEND COURSE OF ACTION WHICH IS THE REPLACEMENT OF THE ENGINE. CHRYSLER HAS CHANGED CASE MANAGERS 4 TIMES AND HAS BEEN DIFFICULT TO RECEIVE A RESPONSE BACK BY MYSELF OR THE JEEP DEALERSHIP. CHRYSLER IS NOW REFUSING TO COVER ANY OF THE WORK THEY HAD PREVIOUSLY AGREED TO HELP COVER AND ARE ONLY WILLING TO ASSIST WITH 50% OF THE REPAIR COSTS OF THE ENGINE REPLACEMENT.

VEHICLE DIES WHEN PUTTING INTO REVERSE FIRST START OF THE DAY. A LITTLE BIT OF A CLUNK IS ALSO EXPERIENCED WHEN THIS HAPPENS

AFTER REPLACING THE IGNITION COILS ( TWICE) AND MISFIRING SPARK PLUGS, MY ENGINE LIGHT CONTINUES TO GO ON. AFTER MULTIPLE COMPUTER READINGS, THAT KEEP SAYING THE SAME THING, IS NOT TURNING OFF. THE DEALER AND OTHER MECHANICS STATED THAT THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE IN OTHER JEEPS AS WELL. THEY TELL ME TO CAMPAIGN FOR THIS TO BE LOOKED INTO. I STILL HAVE 2 YEARS OF PAYMENTS AND WANT TO HAVE THIS RESOLVED.

WHILE BRAKING TO SLOW MY VEHICLE DOWN TO PULL INTO A PARKING SPACE IN FRONT OF A LAUNDROMAT, THE BRAKES WOULD NOT ENGAGE FOR THE PURPOSE OF MAKING A COMPLETE STOP WHEN EMPLOYED; INSTEAD THE JEEP UNEXPECTEDLY ACCELERATED AND LAUNCHED FORWARD INTO THE FRONT DOOR OF THE LAUNDROMAT, STRIKING THE WALL THEREOF AND A WASHING MACHINE ,WHEREFORE MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT ANYTIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS AN 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE AIR BAGS ASSEMBLY LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NEUWIRTH MOTORS LOCATED AT (219 S COLLEGE RD, WILMINGTON, NC 28403) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE CLOCK SPRING ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE 100,000.

UPON FIRST START OF DAY, USUALLY COLDER MORNINGS, ONCE THE JEEP HAS BEEN WARMED UP, UPON GOING FROM PARK INTO REVERSE, THE JEEP WILL SHUDDER HARD BUT KEEP RUNNING OR IT WILL COMPLETELY DIE AND NEED TO BE RESTARTED.

REAR PASSENGER SIDE ABS WHEEL SPEED SENSOR FAILED IN SEPTEMBER, 2019 AT 23,469 MILES AND REPAIRED AT A COST OF $310.31. REAR DRIVER SIDE ABS WHEEL SPEED SENSOR FAILED IN MARCH, 2020 AT 26,835 MILES AND REPAIRED AT A COST OF $244.41. WITH EACH FAILURE, VEHICLE'S ABS, TRACTION CONTROL SYSTEM, AND CRUISE CONTROL BECAME INOPERATIVE AND WOULD INTERMITTENTLY ENGAGE THE VEHICLE'S BRAKES WHILE DRIVING AT LOW AND HIGH SPEEDS.

PURCHASED PRE-OWNED ON NOV 9, 2019 WITH APPROX 23,100 MILES. ON JAN 2, 2020, AT APPROX 23,900 MILES, JEEP WAS ASCENDING EXIT RAMP WHILE BRAKING. CRUISE WAS ON BUT DISENGAGED. STARTED TO ACCELERATE UNEXPECTEDLY AND WITH BRAKE PEDAL FULLY DEPRESSED, COLLIDED WITH CAR STOPPED AT LIGHT. SHUT ENGINE OFF AS JEEP CONTINUED TO ACCELERATE AGAINST STOPPED CAR. ACCIDENT REPORT MADE. TOOK TO DEALER, WHO COULD FIND NO CAUSE FOR RANDOM ACCELERATION. DEALER CONTACTED MANUFACTURER WHO SENT 3RD PARTY INSPECTOR TO EXAMINE JEEP AND CONTENTS OF DATA RECORDER. RECEIVED A LETTER FROM MANUFACTURER TWO WEEKS LATER STATING THEY DID NOT 'BELIEVE' THE VEHICLE WAS AT FAULT. ON FEB 28, 2020 AT 24,564 MILES, JEEP WAS STOPPED AT LIGHT ON EXIT RAMP, WHEN SUDDENLY BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. CRUISE WAS OFF. IMMEDIATELY SHUT ENGINE OFF, BUT WAS STILL PUSHED FORWARD A COUPLE FEET. LUCKILY WAS ALONE AT LIGHT, SO NO ACCIDENT. TOOK TO DEALER AGAIN, WHO COULD STILL FIND NO CAUSE. THEY AGAIN CONTACTED THE MANUFACTURER, BUT I HAVE NOT YET RECEIVED ANY FURTHER WORD.*DT VIN UNAVAILABLE*JB

RECURRING ISSUE. WHEN STARTING JEEP, TYPICALLY IN THE MORNING AFTER SITTING FOR THE NIGHT, IT WILL STALL AFTER SHIFTING INTO REVERSE. THIS REQUIRES PUTTING THE CAR BACK INTO PARK, REMOVING THE KEY AND ATTEMPTING TO START AGAIN.

PCM REPROGRAMMED WITH ONLY 3,556

WHEN SHIFTING INTO REVERS THE VEHICLE IDLES LOW AND ROUGH, ALMOST SHUTTING OFF.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN PARK AND SWITCHED TO REVERSE, THE VEHICLE STALLS. WHEN PLACED INTO PARK, AND RE-STARTED THE VEHICLE SHIFTS WITHOUT ANY ISSUES. IT HAS HAPPENED CONSISTENTLY FOR ABOUT A MONTH.

WHEN I PUT THE JEEP IN REVERSE AND START BACKING OUT OF DRIVEWAY IT STUTTERS AND DIES. YOU CAN START IT RIGHT BACK UP AND IT MAY DO IT AGAIN OR WILL RUN CORRECTLY. IT HAS ALSO BACK OUT OF DRIVEWAY PROPERLY AND THEN STUTTERS AND DIED WHEN PUT IN DRIVE.

JEEP STALLS WHEN COLD AND SHIFTED INTO REVERSE

AUTO TRANS: SLIGHT ROUGH IDLE AT STOP IN GEAR, ENGINE WILL SHUT OFF WHEN PUT IN REVERSE RESULTING IN LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WHEN FIRST DRIVING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY EVEN WHEN VEHICLE HAS WARMED UP.

TORQUE CONVERTOR STALLS ENGINE AND SHUTTERS WHEN COLD. START THE ENGINE, TRY TO PUT IN GEAR AND IT EITHER STALLS OR MAKES THE ENTIRE JEEP SHUDDER. THE JEEP HAS TO BE COMPLETELY WARMED UP BEFORE PUTTING INTO GEAR OR IT STALLS/SHUDDERS. IT HAS STALLED ONCE WHEN GOING TO A STOP AND I HAD NO POWER ANYTHING (STEERING, ABS. . .) AND ENDED UP IN THE INTERSECTION. WARRANTY PERSON WENT TO DEALER AND DENIED REPAIR WORK. I HAVE ON VIDEO (SEVERAL TIMES) THAT IT STALLS/SHUDDERS. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FROM THE SEVERAL MECHANICS (NOT JUST MY DEALER) THAT I HAVE SPOKE TO. MY DEALERSHIP WHERE I GET ALL REPAIRS HAS IT ON RECORD OF STALLING/SHUDDERING WHEN I LEFT IT THERE TO TRY GETTING THE REPAIRS. UNABLE TO UPLOAD VIDEOS HERE TO SHOW WHAT IT DOES.

NOTICED OIL LEAKING ALL UNDER CARRIAGE OF VEHICLE. OIL BEING DISPLAYED FROM FRONT OF ENGINE TO BACK OF JEEP. SMELL OIL AND EVEN SEE SMOKE.POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD.

WITHIN THE PAST 6 MONTHS I HAVE HAD TO REPAIR TWO ABS SENSORS, ONE IN THE FRONT AND ONE IN THE REAR. THIS LAST SENSOR BLOWOUT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS STOPPING AT A LIGHT. I HEARD A GRINDING SOUND AND FELT THE VIBRATION IN THE BREAK PEDDLE AS I TRIED TO STOP. THE JEEP THEN WOULDN'T ACCELERATE PROPERLY AFTER I GOT IT STOPPED AS I TRIED TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I HAD A PROBLEM MOVING THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD AS THE ABS KEPT KICKING IN AND GRINDING ME TO A STOP. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE SENSOR WAS HAVING A ISSUE PICKING UP THE SPEED OF THE TIRES. MY JEEP WRANGLER SPORT IS A 2016 4 DOOR MODEL, IT SPENT 2017 IN A STORAGE AND I BOUGHT IT LATE 2016. IT CURRENTLY HAS 68795 MILES ON IT. IN THE 2 1/2 YEARS I HAVE HAD THIS ON THE ROAD I'VE REPLACED TWO ABS SENSORS, HAD IT IN THE SHOP FOR MISFIRING AND MY AC UNITS BLOWER MOTOR SEEMS TO BE FAILING. AS A COMPARISON, I HAVE A 2010 DODGE CHALLENGER THAT HAS BEEN IN FOR LESS REPAIRS.

UPON MY FIRST START OF THE DAY (COLD START) MY JEEP STARTS NO ISSUE AT ALL BOTH REMOTE START AND STANDARD IGNITION. WHEN I PUT MY JEEP INTO REVERSE, THE RPM'S DROP AND THE JEEP SHUTTERS AND THEN STALLS. SOMETIMES IT DOES A HARD SHUTTER LOW IDLE AND CAN STAY ALIVE BUT USUALLY STALLS. DEALER SAYS THEY CAN'T FIND THE ISSUE BUT I HAVE FOUND SEVERAL FORUMS THAT SAY IT'S THE TORQUE CONVERTER. PLEASE HELP.

MISFIRE ON CYLINDER 2. FIRST TIME INTO THE DEALER STAYED 3 DAYS. LIGHT CAME BACK ON 2 MONTHS LATER. IT HAS NOW BEEN IN THE DEALERS SHOP FOR 9 WEEKS, WITH NO REPAIR TO DATE. SEARCHING INDICATES THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE FROM CHRYSLER. WAS TOLD BY THE DEALER THERE AT 12K JEEPS MARIO.WIDE WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. DEALER REPORTS THEY CANNOT GET THE PART NEEDED. IT DISPLAYED NO RUNNING ISSUES AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THE LIGHT WOULD BE SET OFF. IT WOULD COME ON UNDER ANY CONDITION, SLOW OR REGULAR DRIVING.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED IN THE MORNING AND WAS REVERSED OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THE FAILURE RECURRED AFTER DRIVING AND COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP. AN APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED WITH REED CHRYSLER LOCATED AT 1724 N SPRING ST, BEAVER DAM, WI 53916 (920) 887-2300 WHICH WAS STILL PENDING. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE MAY BE DUE TO A TORQUE SENSOR FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

WHEN IT IS COLD OUTSIDE, ONLY FIRST THING IN THE MORNING, AND I ATTEMPT TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE, IT STALLS OUT. ON SOME OCCASIONS THE RMP'S WILL DROP BUT IT WON'T ACTUALLY STALL OUT. THIS PROBLEM IS ALL OVER THIS SITE AND ALL OVER THE JEEP FORUM. IT IS THE TORQUE CONVERTER, THIS WAS REPLACED IN MY VEHICLE. IT TOOK TWO DIFFERENT TRIPS, TO TWO DIFFERENT DEALERSHIPS FOR THEM TO DIAGNOSIS AND FIX THE PROBLEM AS IT IS INTERMITTENT. I AM UNSURE WHY THIS IS NOT A RECALL AS SO MANY JEEP OWNERS APPEAR TO HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM.

THE VEHICLE LEAKS WATER FROM THE FRONT DOORS AND FILLS THE FLOOR WITH WATER WHEN IT RAINS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP LAST WINTER UNDER THE MANUFACTURER WARRANTY BUT IT STARTED LEAKING AGAIN THIS WINTER. UPON DOING A GOOGLE SEARCH I DISCOVERED THIS A PERVASIVE WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM WITH ALOT OF JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS. I ASKED MY SISTER INLAW IF HER NEW JEEP WAS LEAKING AND IT IS. I ALSO WENT INTO SOME JEEP FORUMS AND DISCOVERED THAT THIS A VERY COMMON ISSUE DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW IN THE WAY THE DOORS SEAL AND THE WAY THE DESIGN DISPERSES WATER. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 40,000 MILES ON IT AND MY CONCERN IS THE CARPET ROTTING OUT,MOLD AS WELL AS THE FLOOR PAN CORRODING AS NOTED BY OTHER JEEP OWNERS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN IT RAINED, BOTH FRONT DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE DOOR LEAKER WATER INSIDE THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE FLOOR MATS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER (BICE MOTOR, INC. 2133 CHEROKEE RD, ALEXANDER CITY, AL 35010, PHONE NUMBER: 256-392-7538) WHERE THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. HOWEVER, THE DEALER USED A REPAIR KIT TO REMEDY THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS UNAWARE OF THE REPAIR PERFORMED BUT IT FAILED TO REMEDY THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 22,000. *TR *DT*JB

THE FIRST INCIDENCE, THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES SEIZED WHILE DRIVING ON A DRY EVENING AT A SPEED OF ABOUT 25MPH CAUSING THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME TO NEARLY COLLIDE AND FORCING US BOTH OFF THE ROAD. I HAD IT LOOKED AT BH A MECHANIC AND HE FOUND NOTHING SO SAID TO BRING IT BACK NEXT TIME IT HAPPENS. THE VEHICLE WAS FINE FOR A WEEK AND THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN FROM THE DRIVEWAY. IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES ON THE ROAD NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT AND SEVERAL OTHER TIMES FORCING DRIVERS BEHIND ME TO PASS. I FIND IT HAPPENS IN THE FIRST MILE OR 2 AFTER STARTING A DRIVE AND THEN IS OK. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC AND HE SUGGESTED REPLACE ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL MODULES ASSOCIATED WITH BRAKES AND REPLACE THE BRAKES AND PADS SINCE THE SEIZING OF THE ABS HAS CAUSED PREMATURE WEAR OF THE BRAKES. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS BUT CANNOT AFFORD $1300 REPAIR ESPECIALLY IF IT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER SAFETY RECALL.

9/27/2019. 4:30PM. ACCELERATED NORMALLY ON CITY STREET FROM STOP LIGHT AND MADE LEFT TURN. AS I TURNED, ENGINE CHOKED AND STUMBLED AND VEHICLE HAD REDUCED POWER, SLOWING VEHICLE. TRACTION CONTROL DASH LIGHT CAME ON. CAR BEHIND ALMOST HIT ME. AFTER ABOUT 10 SECONDS, ENGINE RETURNED TO NORMAL AND VEHICLE PICKED UP SPEED. 10-15 SECONDS LATER SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN WITH TRACTION CONTROL AND ANTI LOCK BRAKE DASH LIGHTS COMING ON. ENGINE REDUCED POWER AND VEHICLE SLOWED AGAIN IN TRAFFIC. AFTER 10 SECONDS, ENGINE RETURNED TO NORMAL, DASH LIGHTS WENT OFF. VEHICLE HAS BEEN NORMAL SINCE THEN. WEATHER AT THE TIME: SUNNY, 85 DEGREES, DAYLIGHT. ROADS COMPLETELY DRY. VEHICLE DID NOT DRIVE THRU WATER, ETC. HAD BEEN DRIVING ON CITY STREETS 25-40 MPH FOR 20 MINUTES. CALLED DEALER. NO HELP ON PHONE. TOOK VEHICLE TO JEEP DEALER ON NOV 6, 2019 AND THEY FOUND CODE "C1043 PERFORMANCE" BUT SAID NOTHING MORE. TECH WRITE UP SAYS "LEFT REAR TONE WHEEL PERFORMANCE CODE HAS GONE STORED. NO CAUSE PRESENT. RESET CODE". ABOUT 35,800 MILES ON VEHICLE. VEHICLE HAS NEVER BEEN OFF ROAD OR MODIFIED IN ANY WAY. STOCK WRANGLER 4 DOOR SPORT.

ON COLD START THE VEHICLE STALL WHEN YOU PLACE IT INTO GEAR. RPMS DROP BEFORE STALLING. HAPPEN WITH AND WITHOUT AUTO START.

RECENTLY WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT SPEEDS RANGING FROM 60 AND ABOVE, WE HAVE EXPERIENCED SEVERE SHAKING ON THE 2016 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED THAT CAUSES US TO PULL OVER AND COME TO A STOP WHILE STILL ON THE HIGHWAY. SHAKING HAS OCCURRED ON NOVEMBER 24TH, 2019 AFTER DRIVING OVER POTHOLES/ROAD JOINTS ON THE FREEWAY; AND AGAIN, ON DECEMBER 26, 2019 ON A STRAIGHT SURFACE ON THE FREEWAY. ONE HAS TO HOLD ON TIGHT TO THE STEERING WHEEL SO AS TO KEEP FROM VEERING OUT OF CONTROL AND ONTO ANOTHER VEHICLE/ROAD SEPARATOR BECAUSE THE JEEP'S TIRES BEGIN TO SWERVE SIDE TO SIDE RAPIDLY. THE SWERVING TIRES CAUSES THE JEEP TO RATTLE AND BECOME JUMPY. THE SEVERE SHAKING ALSO FEELS AS IF A TIRE IS COMING OFF AND WILL BREAK DOWN THEN AND THERE. SLOWING ONE'S SPEED AND SLOWLY PRESSING ON THE BREAK HELPS SLOW AND EVENTUALLY STOP THE SHAKING ONCE COMPLETELY STOPPED. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE JEEP AND MUST BE EXTRA ATTENTIVE AT ALL TIMES NOW FOR FEAR OF LOSING CONTROL. THE ROOT OF THE PROBLEM IS UNKNOWN.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ON THE CARPOOL LANE, GOING AT A SPEED OF ABOUT 70 MPH, I DROVE OVER A POTHOLE/ROAD IMPERFECTION AND THE JEEP BEGAN SHAKING SEVERELY TO A POINT OF ALMOST LOSING CONTROL OR CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. DURING THE SHAKING THE WHEELS SWERVE SIDE TO SIDE AND CAUSES THE JEEP TO BECOME JUMPY AND RATTLE. IN ORDER TO SAFELY STOP THE SHAKING AND NOT LOSE CONTROL I HAD TO SLOW DOWN UNTIL COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE CARPOOL LANE, I COULD NOT PULL OVER DUE TO NO SHOULDER. THE CARS BEHIND SAW THE SHAKING AND SLOWED TO KEEP A SAFE DISTANCE, HOWEVER IF THEY HADN'T IT COULD'VE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT. DURING THE SHAKING I ALSO HAVE TO GRAB TIGHTLY TO THE STEERING WHEEL SO AS TO NOT VEER ON TO VEHICLES OR WALLS NEXT TO ME. I MANAGED TO GET OUT OF THE CARPOOL LANE AND MADE MY WAY TO THE FARTHEST RIGHT LANE AND DROVE NO FASTER THAN 60 MPH FOR FEAR OF THE SHAKING/LOSING CONTROL TO REOCCUR.

I WAS TRAVELING DOWN A CITY STREET AND THE PERSON COMING THE OTHER DIRECTION CROSSED THE DOUBLE YELLOW LINE. WE COLLIDED HEAD ON AND MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. I HAD RECENTLY REPLACED THE AIRBAG DUE TO A RECALL FROM THE MANUFACTURER. THIS ACCIDENT RESULTED IN MY VEHICLE BEING TOTALED. FURTHERMORE I RECEIVED SEVERAL INJURIES INCLUDING A CONCUSSION AND WHIPLASH. THE AIRBAG DID DEPLOY ON THE KIA THAT HIT ME.

CONTACT STATED VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DRIVEN FOR AN EXTENDED PERIOD OF TIME. WEEK BEFORE, ANTI SKID AND THE ABS WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON BUT SHUTS OFF. DRIVING ON A PAVED ROAD WHEN ENGINE DIED. FIRE BROKE OUT INSTANTLY FROM THE FRONT RIGHT CONSUMING ENTIRE VEHICLE. WE HAD JUST LEFT A DIRT ROAD ONTO THE PAVED ROAD, DROVE ABOUT 200-300 YARDS WHEN THE INCIDENT OCCURRED.*DT*JB

VEHICLE STALLS WHEN PUT INTO REVERSE WHEN COLD. THIS DOES NOT MEAN ONLY FIRST START OF THE DAY. WHEN TRANSMISSION FLUID IS UNDER 120 DEGREES, IT WILL STALL IN REVERSE WITH BRAKE DEPRESSED. UPON RESTART, THE STARTER WILL ENGAGE FOR A PROLONGED PERIOD EVEN AFTER THE VEHICLE STARTS, THE STARTER WILL CONTINUE TO RUN TOO LONG. WHEN THE VEHICLE RESTARTS AFTER A STALL, IT WILL IDLE ROUGH WHEN SHIFTED BACK INTO REVERSE. NO PROBLEMS IN DRIVE. STARTED AT A MILEAGE OF AROUND 35,000. VEHICLE NOW AT 58,000 AND HAS PROGRESSIVELY WORSENED.

ON FIRST START OF THE DAY IN COLD WEATHER, AFTER STARTING ENGINE AND SHIFTING INTO R (WITH BRAKE PEDAL APPLIED), CAR WILL FREQUENTLY DROP INTO EXTREMELY LOW RPM RANGE (<= 500RPM) AND/OR STALL AND DIE COMPLETELY. THIS IS PRIMARILY ONLY ON THE FIRST START OF THE DAY AND IN COLDER WEATHER (SUB 40F DEGREE)

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WOODHOUSE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM FIAT (2101 6TH ST, SIOUX CITY, IA 51101, (712) 277-3221) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THERE WAS DAMAGE TO THE PASSENGER SIDE CAMSHAFT CAUSED BY ROCKER ARM FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE CAMSHAFT AND ROCKER ARMS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000. *JS

ENGINE CLICKING SOUND !!

RECEIVED NOTICE FROM JEEP THAT A RECALL WAS IN EFFECT FOR THE AIRBAG SENSOR SWITCH LOCATED SOMEWHERE WITHIN THE FRONT BUMPER.. THE SWITCH MAYBE DISCONNECTED AT TIME OF IMPACT AND NOT MESSAGE THE AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY... THE HARD ROCK ADDITION JEEP HAS AN ACCESS PORT LOCATED WITHIN THE FRONT BUMPER SPECIFICALLY FOR THE PURPOSE OF INSTALLING A WINCH/WINCH PLATE... DEALERSHIP ADVISED IT WOULD COST ADDITIONAL 100 DOLLARS TO REPAIR THE RECALL AS THE WINCH WOULD HAVE TO BE REMOVED PARTIALLY OR IN TOTAL... CONTACTED CUSTOMER SERVICE / CASE MANAGEMENT AT JEEP CORP AND WAS ADVISED IT WOULD NOT COVER THE COST TO REMOVE THE WINCH THAT IT WAS MORE OR LESS BETWEEN THE DEALERSHIP AND ME.. MY THOUGHTS ARE THAT THE BUMPER WAS DESIGNED BY JEEP TO INSTALL A WINCH INSIDE THE BUMPER WITH TOP AND FRONT REMOVABLE PLATES AND THAT THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE REGARDLESS....

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ABS WARNING INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WOODHOUSE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM FIAT (LOCATED AT 2101 6TH ST, SIOUX CITY, IA 51101, (712) 277-3221) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE INTAKE CAMSHAFT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE LEFT SIDE OF THE INTAKE CAMSHAFT ALSO NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 130,000.

WHEN WE 1ST START THE VEHICLE IN THE MORNING AND PUT INTO REVERSE THE VEHICLE DIES. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP ONE TIME AND THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THEY FLASHED THREE COMPUTER AND IT STOPPED FOR A WHILE BUT HAS STARTED BACK UP AGAIN.

BLOWN HEAD GASKET ON A VEHICLE WITH THAT IS LESS THAN 4 YEARS OLD

I TOOK MY JEEP FOR AN OIL CHANGE SERVICE. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME HE FOUND A LEAK ON THE FRONT OF THE ENGINE. AFTER FURTHER INSPECTIONS, I DISCOVER THE ENGINE OIL COOLER HAS A LEAK. I WAS TOLD THIS ISSUE IS NOT COVERED UNDER MY WARRANTY BECAUSE IS OVER THE 60K. MY RESEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS A NON-ISSUE WITH THE 3.6L ENGINE NHTSA ID # 10138863. WE NEED HELP MAKING THE MANUFACTURER RESPONSIBLE FOR FAULTY PRODUCTS.

IMMEDIATELY AFTER ENTERING THE ROADWAY (RIGHT TURN) AND AT APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH THE BRAKES APPLIED WITHOUT WARNING OR HUMAN INTERVENTION. WHEN THIS SITUATION OCCURRED 2 DASH WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED, THE 'ESC ACTIVATED' AND THE 'ABS'LIGHT ACTIVATED. THIS CREATES AN UNEXPECTED SITUATION FOR THOSE VEHICLES TRAVELING BEHIND AND NOT EXPECTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF THEM TO SUDDENLY BRAKE. JEEP HAS INDICATED THE FAILURE OF A WHEEL SPEED SENSOR TO BE THE CAUSE OF THIS SUDDEN BRAKING.

ON A COLD MORNING, I STARTED IT UP, PUT IT IN REVERSE AND IT SPUTTERED AND STALLED OUT. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES NOW. ONLINE INVESTIGATING INDICATES THAT THE TORQUE CONVERTER MAY BE THE CULPRIT.

2016 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON CAUGHT FIRE AND COMPLETELY BURNED TO THE GROUND WHILE PARKED.*DT *TR

TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON AND ABS LIGHT ALSO CAME ON.CAR STALL AND THE CAR WAS ABOUT TO TURN OK BY ITSELF.,THIS HAPPENED WHILE MY WAS ON HER WAY HOME FROM WORK.SO SHE TOLD ME AND I WENT TO CHECK IT OUT FOR SURE THE CAR DID THE SAME EXACT THINGS AS SHE EXPLAINS.I TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALERSHIPFOR SERVICE WHICH THEY SERVICE THE CAR AND FLUSH THE ENGINE ON THE 10/08/19 AND THE TRACTION LIGHT WAS STILL ON AND ABS LIGHT WAS ALSO ON SO I TOOK IT BACK TO DEALER AND TOLD THEM.THIS IS WHEN THEY TOLD ME THEY HAVE TO SENT IT OUT FOR A DIAGNOSTIC THAT WOULD COURSE ME $140 THEN TO GET FIX PARTS AND LABOR GOING TO BE EXTRA.I DON'T GET HOW A CAR WITH 28000 MILES CAN START GIVING SUCHPROBLEMS. THIS IS THE SAME DEALERSHIP I ORDERED THE CAR IN 2015.

JEEP STALLS WHEN PUT INTO REVERSE, THEN HAS TROUBLE SHIFTING FROM AN IDLE, SUCH AS TAKING OFF FROM A STOP LIGHT.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE FRONT END STARTED TO SHAKE REALLY BAD, ALSO KNOWN AS THE DEATH WOBBLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE ON THE HIGHWAY AND ONCE ON A MAIN ROAD SINCE I HAVE GOTTEN THE JEEP 1.5 YEARS AGO. WHEN I MAKE TURNS IT WILL OCCASIONALLY SEEM LIKE THE STEERING STICKS A LITTLE THEN JERKS SLIGHTLY IN THE DIRECTION I TURNED THE WHEEL.

JEEP WAS STATIONARY WAITING FOR LIGHT TO CHANGE ON CITY STREET. WHEN LIGHT TURNED GREEN I STEPPED ON ACCELERATOR; WHILE STILL PUSHING FOOT DOWN ON PEDAL THE ENGINE STARTED TO REV UP TO MAX RPMS BUT JEEP WAS NOT MOVING FORWARD. I WAS AFRAID THE ENGINE WOULD KEEP REVVING AND BLOW UP. I INSTANTLY REMOVED FOOT FROM GAS AND LET JEEP ROLL; PUT ON EMERGENCY FLASHING LIGHTS AND TURNED (ROLLED OFF) TO PARKING LOT ONE BLOCK AWAY AND TURNED JEEP OFF. AFTER A FEW MINUTES I RESTARTED CAR AND SLOWLY DROVE THE SIX BLOCKS HOME. TOOK IT TO AUTHORIZED JEEP DEALER AND THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT COULD FIND NO ERROR CODE, SAID THAT THEY TEST DROVE IT AND COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG WITH THE JEEP.

2016 JEEP WRANGLER. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO URGENT AIRBAG SAFETY RECALL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER CANCELED THE SCHEDULED RECALL REPAIR AND DID NOT SCHEDULE A NEW APPOINTMENT. *JS

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V018000 (AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT CALLED KOONS TYSONS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (2050 CHAIN BRIDGE RD, VIENNA, VA 22182, 703-790-0900) TO HAVE THE VEHICLE SERVICED; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT REACHED OUT TO ANOTHER DEALER(FARRISH CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM, 9610 FAIRFAX BLVD, FAIRFAX, VA 22031, 703-273-0200) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THEY ALSO DID NOT HAVE PARTS AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT INFORMED THE MANUFACTURER OF THE RECALL AND THEY PROVIDE THE SAME INFORMATION AS THE DEALERS. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN ON THE PHONE WITH JEEP (833-585-0144) TO GET MY AIRBAG REPLACED ON NUMEROUS TIMES. THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE. THEY HAVE CALLED DEALERS AND I AM ON A WAITING LIST AT A JEEP DEALER FOR OVER TWO MONTHS. I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE ME A RENTAL CAR UNTIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE AS THIS IS A UNSAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE.

WHEN STARTING VEHICLE IN STATIONARY PARKING LOT, LIGHTS FLASHED. I SHUT IGNITION DOWN AND TOOK KEY OUT AND ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN, OVERHEATED, BEGAN SMOKING, AND ANTIFREEZE SPILLED ON GROUND. ENGINE CONTINUED TO RUN UNTIL BATTERY WAS FULLY DISCONNECTED BY FIRE DEPARTMENT.

CLOCK SPRING NEEDS REPLACING.

THE FRONT RIGHT BRAKE STARTED STICKING AND PULLING THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE. IT ALSO CAUSED A SQUELLING SOUND AND EXCESSIVE HEAT FROM THE WHEEL. THIS WOULD RECTIFY ITSELF BUT THE BRAKES FELT WEAKER FOR STOPPING THIS HAPPENED OFF AND ON FOR A FEW DAYS . WE TOOK TO A LOCAL GARAGE BECAUSE IT WAS DANGEROUS PARTIALLY LOSING CONTROL. HE FOUND THE PROBLEM TO BE A COLLAPSED BRAKE LINE. WE BOUGHT THE JEEP BRAND NEW AND IT IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD WITH 39000 MILES. HE SAID THE BRAKE LINE WAS EITHER DEFECTIVE AND OR JUST A CHEAP PART. IT WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION LOSING PARTIAL CONTROL. IT ALSO RUINED THE BRAKE PAD AND ROTOR DO TO GLAZING.

TAKATA RECALL. AIRBAG LIGHT RECENTLY TURNED ON. AFTER USING A DIAGNOSTIC TOOL TO DECODE THE PROBLEM I'M GIVEN CODE B1B02. THIS WAS AN OPEN RECALL ON HALF A MILLION OLDER JEEP WRANGLERS. HOWEVER MINE IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL AND FEEL IT SHOULD BE CONCERNING THE POTENTIAL SERIOUSNESS THAT COULD ARISE.

TAKATA RECALL I CALLED THE DEALER ABOUT THE RECALL. THEY DIDN'T CALL ME BACK. THEY WERE UNSURE IF THE STOCK STATUS OF THE PART. THE DEALER I CALLED WAS BRIGHTON CHRYSLER IN MICHIGAN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE ABS AND TRACTION WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND SWERVED OFF THE ROAD. THE TRANSMISSION REVVED AND THE RPMS WENT ALL THE WAY UP. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PREMIER CAPE COD JEEP (460 YARMOUTH RD, HYANNIS, MA 02601, (508) 815-5000) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE DEALER WOULD NOT SERVICE THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE WARRANTY ISSUES AND THEY WERE ALSO BOOKED FOR WEEKS WITH APPOINTMENTS. THE VEHICLE WAS ALSO TAKEN TO HELLER JEEP (635 MILL ST ROUTE 6, MARION, MA 02738, (508) 748-0019) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ABS AND TRACTION SENSORS NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE DEALER FURTHER STATED THAT THE ENGINE OVERHEATED AND LEAKED COOLANT AND THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 17,978.

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS ANYWHERE FROM 30 TO 80 THE STEERING WILL OSCILLATE FROM LEFT TO RIGHT AFTER ENCOUNTERING MINOR BUMPS IN THE ROAD. AT TIMES THE OSCILLATIONS ARE RATHER VIOLENT. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE I OWNED THE VEHICLE. IF YOU ARE NOT AWARE OF THE ISSUE ACCIDENTS COULD BE THE RESULT.

PREMATURE ABS SENSOR FAILURE AT 37,000 M ,STABILITY CONTROL BRAKING A WHEEL MAKING CAR PULL IN THAT DIRECTION,NOT AN ISOLATED CASE ALL 2016 AND 2017 JEEP WRANGER HAS THE SAME PROBLEM WITH LESS THAN 40,000M SAFETY ISSUE.ABS DTC C102A.VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ,ON CITY STREET . THIS CAN CREATE AN ACCIDENT. CHRYSLER IS NOT RECALLING THIS VEHICLES PASSING THE COST OF REPAIR TO THE CUSTOMERS,BAD PART DESING WITH PREMATURE FAILURES

ENGINE QUITS GOING DOWN THE HIGHWAY, CREATING LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. ONCE I PULLED OVER TO SHOULDER OF ROAD, IT WOULD RESTART ONLY TO PRODUCE THE SAME RESULT SEVERAL MINUTES LATER WHILE DRIVING. SUSPECTED FAULT IN CRANKSHAFT SENSOR, OR CORROSION IN ELECTRICAL CONNECTIONS TO SUCH. THIS IS THE SECOND JEEP THAT THIS HAS OCCURRED ON, VERY DANGEROUS TO OCCUR WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEEDS DOWN THE HIGHWAY

EXPERIENCE MAJOR LIFTING AND FLUTTERING OF THE HOOD AT SPEEDS AT OR OVER 65 MPH. MOST SEVERE WHEN DRIVING DOWN TWO LANE HWY AND LARGER TRUCKS LIKE SEMIS PASS ONCOMING.

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 40 WESTBOUND OUT OF MEMPHIS, I FOUND THE WINDS WERE GUSTY BLOWING FROM THE NORTHWEST HITTING ME THE RIGHT FRONT. SUDDENLY I WAS OVERTAKEN BY A LARGE TRACTOR TRAILER AND MY HOOD STARTED FLUTTERING FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN STOPPED. THEN IT HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES, EVEN WITH NO TRUCK PASSING, JUST A GUST OF WIND. I STOPPED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE RUBBER LATCHES WERE SECURE AND THEY WERE, NOTHING WAS LOOSE AND I COULD NOT PHYSICALLY MOVE THE HOOD WHILE IT WAS STILL LATCHED. THIS BEHAVIOR HAS REPEATED ON OTHER OCCASIONS INVOLVING WIND AND HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH. I'M SURE WIND WAS CAUGHT UNDER THE HOOD AND THE PRESSURE WAS FORCING THE HOOD TO FLUTTER. THE RUBBER LATCHES DID NOT FULLY SECURE THE HOOD TO THE VEHICLE ENOUGH TO PREVENT THE FLUTTERING.

AFTER TURNING INTO A LARGE PARKING LOT FROM A CITY STREET WHILE STILL DRIVING THE 2016 JEEP WRANGLER JKU SPORT'S CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON FOLLOWED ABRUPTLY BY THE ENGINE QUITTING AND NUMEROUS DASH LIGHTS ILLUMINATING. THE NOW DEAD VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY COASTED TO A STOP AS SMOKE STARTING BILLOWING FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AND THE VEHICLE WAS QUICKLY ENGULFED IN FLAMES. THIS JEEP WAS PURCHASED BRAND NEW 3 YEARS AND 3 WEEKS AGO AND HAD LESS THAN 16,000 MILES ON IT. TWO WEEKS PRIOR TO THE FIRE, THE BATTERY ABRUPTLY DIED AND WOULD NOT HOLD A CHARGE. AFTER A NEW TOP-OF-THE-LINE BATTERY WAS INSTALLED, THE DASH RED SECURITY LIGHT WOULD FLASH CONSTANTLY WHILE THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. JUST ONE DAY PRIOR TO THE FIRE THE JEEP WAS SERVICED AT THE DEALERSHIP TO ACCOMPLISH TWO SAFETY RECALL ITEMS RELATED TO AN AIRBAG WIRING HARNESS AND AIRBAG MODULE. THE JEEP'S WIRELESS CONTROL MODULE (WCM) WAS DIAGNOSED TO HAVE AN INTERNAL FAILURE BUT WAS NOT REPLACED AT THAT TIME DUE TO A WARRANTY DISPUTE AND ALSO AVAILABILITY OF THE MODULE. PRIOR TO THE BATTERY FAILURE, WHICH WAS JUST 1 WEEK BEYOND THE 3-YEAR WARRANTY DATE, THIS 2016 JEEP WRANGLER WAS IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND HAD ZERO MECHANICAL OR ELECTRICAL ISSUES AND HAD NOT RECEIVED ANY SERVICING OUTSIDE OF ROUTINE OIL CHANGES AND SERVICE CHECKS. THE FIRE STARTED QUICKLY AND BURNED EXTREMELY HOT BURNING THROUGH THE FIREWALL AND INTO THE CABIN IN A MATTER OF MINUTES. FORTUNATELY THE OCCUPANT WAS ABLE TO EGRESS WITHOUT INJURY. THIS JEEP, WITH LESS THAN 16,000 MILES, IS A TOTAL LOSS. THE HOTSPOT ON THE HOOD APPEARS TO BE AROUND THE LOCATION OF THE FUSE BOX. ATTEMPTS TO EXTINGUISH THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIRE WITH A PORTABLE FIRE EXTINGUISHER WERE FUTILE.*DT *TR

MY HOOD FLUTTERS AT ANY SPEED ABOVE ROUGHLY 35MPH. IT FLUTTERS SO BAD THAT I BELIEVE THE RUBBER STRAPS ARE GOING TO BREAK WHICH WOULD CAUSE THE HOOD TO OPEN AND BLOCK THE WINDSHIELD WHILE DRIVING. IT IS 100% WORSE WHEN PASSING A TRACTOR TRAILER OR ANY TYPE OF BIGGER TRUCK.

THE JEEP WRANGLER HAS NO LOCKING HOOD LATCH, INSTEAD ONLY LATCHES ON THE OUTSIDE THAT USE A RUBBER PIECE TO SECURE IT. ME ALONG WITH 1000'S HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE LATCHES DUE TO STRETCHING THAT CAUSES HOOD FLUTTER, RESULTING IN HORRIBLE GAS MILEAGE AND SOME IT HAS EVEN DAMAGED THE HOOD IF NOT TAKEN CARE OF IMMEDIATELY. LUCKILY I REPLACED MY LATCHES BUT NOT AFTER I HAD TO PAY FOR NEW LATCHES BECAUSE OF JEEPS DEFECT

I BUCKLED MY SEATBELT AND FELT IT SLIP AS IF IT HAD COME UNBUCKLED. THE SEATBELT WAS LATCHED, BUT THE METAL BETWEEN THE LATCH AND THE SEAT FRAME HAD BROKEN IN TWO. THE ONLY THING HOLDING THE SEATBELT LATCH WAS THE WIRE AND IT'S COVERING. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN I NOTICED THE PROBLEM.*DT THE CONSUMER PROVIDED PHOTOS OF THE DEFECTED SEATBELT. *TR *TR

TAKATA RECALL. THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT INDICATED A FAULT WITH A CHIME , JUNE 2019. THE DRIVER AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING RECALL WAS PERFORMED IN OCTOBER 2016 SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THERE WAS A TWO YEAR WARRANTY, WHICH HAS EXPIRED.THE DEALERSHIP TELLS ME THE REPAIR COST IS APPROXIMATELY $1200.00. MY COMPLAINT IS THE REPLACEMENT PARTS USED IN THE RECALL ARE GIVING WARNING INDICATORS LIKE THE ORIGINAL AIRBAG PARTS. I USE THE JEEP FOR MAIL DELIVERY ON DIRT ROADS THAT ARE EXTREMELY DUSTY MOST OF THE YEAR. THIS IS THE MAIN REASON FOR THE ORIGINAL AIRBAG RECALL. "THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING MAY INGEST DUST IF THE VEHICLE IS SUBJECTED TO DUSTY ENVIRONMENTS, COMPROMISE AIRBAG CIRCUITS, CAUSE ILLUMINATION OF THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT". I FEEL THE ORIGINAL PROBLEM STILL EXISTS AND THE RECALL REPLACEMENT PARTS HAVE FAILED. I THINK THIS IS A RECALL CONCERN. I HAVE CONTACTED FIAT CHRYSLER AUTOMOBILE GROUP RECALL ASSISTANCE CENTER , THEY DID NOT HELP. I I AM PAYING FOR THE REPAIR. BUT I FEEL LIKE THE SAFELY PROBLEM STILL EXISTS, AND WHEN DUST COVERS THIS PART IT WILL MALFUNCTION.

I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE AND THE COURTESY CALLS HOWEVER I'VE HAD MY APPT CANCELLED BY THE DEALER BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS. THIS IS GOING ON FOR 3 MONTHS. THE DEALERS NEAR ME DO NOT HAVE THESE PARTS AND HAVE PLACED US ON A 'LIST'. IN THE MEAN TIME WE NEED TO DRIVE WITH A VEHICLE THAT CAN CAUSE US INJURY OR DEATH BECAUSE CHRYSLER CANNOT MAKE THESE PARTS QUICK ENOUGH OR SEND ENOUGH TO COVER THE AMOUNT OF VEHICLES WITH THE PROBLEM.

FRONT FRAME CROSS MEMBER BRACKETS CRACKED, MAJOR CRACK RIGHT SIDE, CRACK LEFT SIDE. THIS IS THE MOST FRONT FRAME ACROSS THE FRONT BOTTOM BELOW FRONT OF ENGINE. NOTE A ROADMASTER TOWING BASE PLATE IS ATTACHED TO THIS AREA. THIS JEEP IS REGULARLY TOWED BEHIND A MOTORHOME. APPROX 45000 DRIVING PLUS 40000 BEING TOWED. IF BASEPLATE CAME OFF, JEEP WOULD DETACH INCL SAFETY CABLES. STICKER SAYS INSPECT EVERY 3000 MILES, NEVER SAW THAT BEFORE.

THE SPEED SENSOR FOR THE FRONT BRAKES ON MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER FAILED AND LED TO COSTLY REPAIRS. THE BRAKES LOCKED UP SO BAD THEY STALLED THE JEEP WHEN I LET OUT THE CLUTCH. THE JEEP LITERALLY SLAMMED ON IT'S OWN BRAKES IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC WITHOUT ME HAVING APPLIED THE BRAKES. THE BRAKE LIGHTS OF COURSE DID NOT COME ON AND I NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT. THE REPAIR COST $1200. THE JEEP DEALER TOLD ME "THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM".

HOOD LATCH FAILURE - TRAVELING ON A 2 LANE HIGHWAY AT POSTED SPEEDS OF 75 MPH, AS AN 18 WHEELER APPROACHED/PASSED AND THE RUSH OF WIND "HIT" THE VEHICLE, BOTH EXTERIOR RUBBER HOOD LATCHES AS WELL AS THE INTERNAL METAL HOOD LATCH FAILED, CAUSING THE HOOD TO FLY UP, SLAMMING AGAINST THE WINDSHIELD, SHATTERING IT AND BENDING THE HOOD OVER THE TOP FRAME OF THE WINDSHIELD, AND THE HOOD DID NOT FALL BACK DOWN. THANKFULLY THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO CONTROL AND SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE AND GET SAFELY OFF THE ROAD, THEN HAD TO CLIMB UP TO PULL THE HOOD OFF OF THE TOP FRAME OF WINDSHIELD FRAME. THE FORCE OF THIS WAS SO GREAT IT COMPLETELY KNOCKED THE REAR VIEW MIRROR OFF OF THE WINDSHIELD.

WHILE PUTTING ON THE SEAT BELT THE ANCHOR BRACKET JUST BROKE OFF RIGHT ABOVE THE BOLT. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN 2016 AND ONLY HAS 62,300 MILES. BUT THIS PART SHOULD NEVER EVER BREAK. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY. *DT *DT *DT *TR *DT*JB

WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT A T-INTERSECTION, FROM A FULL STOP, ACROSS ON-COMING TRAFFIC PASSING LEFT TO RIGHT ON A TWO-LANE ROAD, I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR. JEEP BEGAN ROLLING FORWARD INTO THE INTERSECTION WHEN ANTI-LOCK BRAKES INITIATED WITHOUT ANY DEPRESSION OF BRAKE PEDAL, SLOWING ACCELERATION TO AN IDLE COAST. I DEPRESSED ACCELERATOR TO FLOOR, BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT RESPOND AND CONTINUED TO COAST THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. WE COULD FEEL THE ABS WEAKLY GRABBING AND LETTING GO, AND THERE WAS A GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT WHEELS. THE CAUTION TONE SOUNDED AND THE JEEP DISPLAYED AN ABS CAUTION LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL CAUTION LIGHT. WE COASTED ACROSS THE INTERSECTION AND PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, VERY NARROWLY AVOIDING A SIDE-IMPACT COLLISION WITH ON-COMING TRAFFIC FROM OUR LEFT AND A REAR-IMPACT COLLISION WITH TRAFFIC COMING FROM OUR REAR. OBDII SCANNER SHOWS REAR ABS SPEED SENSOR BAD. INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS MANY SAME OR SIMILAR INCIDENTS WITH JEEPS AT APPROXIMATELY 40,000-50,000 MILES. JEEP HAS APPROXIMATELY 43,000 MILES.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE DEALERSHIP APPROX. FOUR TIMES, BECAUSE THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, FOLLOWED BY THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT. THEY SAID THAT THE CABLE CONNECTION GETS LOOSE AND THEY SOLDERED IT. THIS STARTED ABOUT 20000 MILES AND IS NOW AT 57778 MILES. THIS LAST TIME ON 4-24-2019 THEY SAID THAT IT HAS STORED CODES FOR THE CAM SENSORS ON BOTH BANKS AND TORQUE REQUEST DENIED SIGNAL AND TORQUE MANAGEMENT SIGNAL PERFORMANCE. P2638, C121C, P0344, P0369. THEY SAID THAT IT HAS PCM UPDATE AND THAT THEY PERFORMED THE PCM UPDATE AGAIN AND CLEARED CODES TO SEE IF THEY WOULD COME BACK. VEHICLE DRIVEN 30 MILES AND AND ONE LARGE BUMP IN THE ROAD AND THE LIGHTS TURNED ON AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS WHILE GOING DOWN DIRT ROADS. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THE FIRST TIME THAT IT WAS TAKEN IN THAT THE CABLE IS TO SHORT AND CAUSES STRESS AND STRETCHES, CAUSING IT TO COME LOOSE. THIS TIME THEY SAID IF THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THE VEHICLE BACK TO DO MORE EXTENSIVE TESTS AND POSSIBLE REPLACE THE SENSORS AT MY EXPENSE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A REOCCURRING PROBLEM THAT ALWAYS COMES BACK. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM ON ALL WRANGLERS. THIS SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURES DEFECT AND NEEDS TO RECALLED AND FIXED.

DRIVING A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER WITH THE ORIGINAL GOODYEAR WRANGLER TIRES P255/75R17 AT 45 DEGREES F FOR LESS THAN 5MIN AT 35MPH ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET, SLOWED TO BELOW 5MPH TO MAKE A GRADUAL RIGHT TURN THEN STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION.

I FIRST EXPERIENCED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" WITHIN A YEAR OR SO OF PURCHASING MY NEW 2016 JEEP WRANGLER...VERY SCARY (SEEMS TO HAPPEN ON A ROUGH SPOTS IN THE ROAD, TRAVELING AT 45 MPH OR HIGHER).THE FRONT END WAS SHAKING SO BADLY THAT I THOUGHT I HAD A FLAT TIRE, OR THAT A WHEEL HAD FALLEN OFF. IT HAS NOW HAPPENED AT LEAST 8 TIMES, AND I NO LONGER DRIVE ON ANY INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. I TOOK IT IN TO THE JEEP DEALER TO HAVE THIS CHECKED OUT ON JUNE 27, 2017 WITH 31,237 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THEY SAID THAT EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. ALSO HAD THE TIRES ROTATED AND BALANCED TO SEE IF THAT WAS PART OF THE PROBLEM, BUT JUST WHEN YOU THINK THAT ALL IS OK, IT HAPPENS AGAIN. YOU ARE NEVER SURE WHEN TO EXPECT IT, AND IT IS UNNERVING. THE JEEP DEALER CLAIMED TO HAVE NOT HEARD OF THE "DEATH WOBBLE". I THINK JEEP IS HIDING THE FACT THAT THERE IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM. YOU CAN'T IMAGINE WHAT IT IS LIKE UNTIL IT HAPPENS TO YOU.

TAKATA RECALL: TOOK MY JEEP IN FOR RECALL REPAIR & TOLD BY SERVICE DEALER (REDLANDS, CA) THAT CHRYSLER IS NOT SENDING THE PARTS FOR RECALL TO BE COMPLETED. THEY ARE TO CONTACT ME ONCE THE PARTS ARE IN.

ON COLD DAYS AFTER THE JEEP HAS BEEN SITTING OVERNIGHT, THE ENGINE WILL STALL WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS FIRMLY PRESSED. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE JEEP IS STARTED AND IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IF THE CAR IS RUNNING FOR 30 SECONDS BEFORE IT IS SHIFTED OR RUNNING FOR 3 MINUTES, THE ENGINE WILL STALL WHEN SHIFTING INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE. IF THE BRAKE IS NOT FIRMLY PRESSED THE ENGINE WON'T STALL WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE. THIS CAUSES THE JEEP WILL LURCH FORWARD, FOR DRIVE, OR BACKWARD, FOR REVERSE,

WHEN STARTING MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED UP, FIRST START IN THE DAY, OR MORNING.START VEHICLE UP, LET WARM UP FOR AT LEAST 1 MINUTE, PUT FOOT ON BRAKE PUT GEAR SHIFTER IN REVERSE, TO BACK OUT OF DRIVEWAY, GO TO RELEASE BRAKE, AND VEHICLE STALLS OUT.THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, ABOUT ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK,TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID CAN'T FIND NO CODES..I'VE BEEN ON A JEEP FORUM FOR A FEW WEEKS,AND EVERYONE ON THE SITE SAYS DEALERSHIP HAS FOUND THE PROBLEM AND FIXED, WHAT WOULD BE THE TORQUE CONVERTER, SEEM TO BE LOTS OF 2016 JEEPS OUT IN THE WORLD, HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. ..

THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL ON THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG POSTED ON 1/9/2019 WHICH MY DEALERSHIP HAS NOT YET FIXED AS OF 1/24/19.

THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO THE MANUFACTURER, BUT THEY WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 45,000. *TT*JB

DEALER REFUSES TO MAKE RECALL REPAIRS FREE OF CHARGE, WANT US TO PAY HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO REMOVE AND REINSTALL WENCH. TRIED LAST SUMMER AS WELL SAME RESULT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE THE DRIVER WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP AT A RED LIGHT, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ENGAGED. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE REAR ENDED A DUMP TRUCK. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE MANUFACTURER'S ENGINEER PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC AT AN UNKNOWN DEALER AND WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A FAILURE CODE; HOWEVER, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL READING IN THE RADIO FREQUENCY. THE ENGINEER CONCLUDED THAT THE ACCELERATION FAILURE WAS NOT CAUSED BY A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,209.

JEEP DEATH WOBBLE - WHILST TAKING MY SON TO SCHOOL I WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, I STUCK A SMALL POTHOLE WITH MY RIGHT FRONT TIRE. THE VEHICLE FRONT END BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AS THE STEERING WHEEL OSCILLATED ABOUT 6 INCHES BACK AND FORTH. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND NEARLY COLLIDED WITH CENTER MEDIAN AND VEHICLES TO MY RIGHT. SLOWING DOWN TO ABOUT 5 MPH CAUSED THE WOBBLE TO SUBSIDE. THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY SCARY EVENT AND COULD HAVE CAUSED INJURY/DEATH OF BOTH OF US HAD I LOST CONTROL. A DASHCAM VIDEO OF THE INCIDENT CAN BE PROVIDED IF NEEDED.

INVOLVED IN FRONT-END IMPACT WITH A SIGN AND TREE, RESULTING IN SEVERE DAMAGE TO BUMPER AND FRAMEWORK. THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED SEVERE INJURIES TO HEAD. VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED OR REPAIRED AFTER THE ACCIDENT. *DT *TR *JB *DT*JB *DT *DT *DT *TR

MY ACCELERATOR WAS STUCK IN ACCELERATION MODE ONCE WHEN PASSING A CAR AND TODAY WHEN ACCELERATING TO MERGE ONTO THE FREEWAY AND MY CRUISE WAS NOT IN NOR WAS MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR.

I DRIVE A JEEP WRANGLER THAT HAS 70000 MILES ON IT. IT IS A 4 DOOR VEHICLE AND THE MECHANISMS FOR THE BACK DOORS NO LONGER WORK. WHILE SITTING INSIDE THE CAR, I AM UNABLE TO OPEN THE DOOR. I DID A BIT OF RESEARCH AND IT SEEMS THAT THE MECHANISMS IN THESE DOORS FAIL OFTEN AS OTHERS REPORT THE SAME ISSUE. A 2016 VEHICLE WITH DOORS THAT DO NOT FUNCTION IS , ON MY MIND, A SAFETY ISSUE. CHRYSLER REFUSES TO LOOK INTO THE MATTER OR HELP IN ANYWAY BECAUSE OF THE MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE. I HOPE NO ONE IS SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DIES BECAUSE THE DOOR WILL NOT OPEN ON ONE OF THESE CARS.

2 X NOW WHILE DRIVING MY GAS PEDAL EXCELLERATED AFTER I TOOK MY FOOT OFF OF THE PEDAL AND WOULD NOT STOP UNTIL I PULLED THE PEDAL UP WITH MY FOOT. FIRST TIME I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH. THE SECOND TIME ON A STREET AT ABOUT 25 MPH.

VEHICLE NOTIFIED IT HAD A FAULT IN THE ABS/ESC SYSTEM VIA THE YELLOW WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATING ON THE DASH. OCCURRED AFTER STARTING THE CAR AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT. VEHICLE DROVE NORMALLY AT FIRST AND ASSUMED THIS INDICATED THE SYSTEMS HAD A FAULT AND WERE THUS DISABLED. HOWEVER, VEHICLE STARTED TO LOSE POWER, STUMBLE, AND NOT ACCELERATE WHEN MOVING FROM DEAD STOP. INCLUDING STOP LIGHTS, STOP SIGNS, CROSSING DIVIDED HIGHWAYS AND INTERSECTIONS--TURNING AND STRAIGHT TRAVEL. PAVEMENT CONDITIONS WERE DRY/LEVEL, NO WHEEL SPIN OCCURRED. 3 OCCASIONS OVER 2 DAYS RESULTED IN NEAR ACCIDENTS. ONCE AFTER TURNING RIGHT FROM A STOP SIGN, ACCELERATING THROUGH FIRST GEAR AND REAR BRAKES BEGIN TO CYCLE WHILE POWER IS CUT FROM ENGINE. CAR BEHIND HAD TO SWERVE AROUND SO AS NOT TO COLLIDE. NO WARNING OR INDICATION THAT THIS WOULD HAPPEN. NEXT EVENT WAS CROSSING 2 LANE DIVIDED HIGHWAY FROM CENTER TURN LANE. AGAIN SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED LOSS OF POWER AND BRAKING AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED TO REAR WHEELS. LESSER EVENTS HAVE OCCURRED AS WELL. VEHICLE THINKS IT NEEDS TO ENGAGE THE ESC SYSTEM. I ARGUE THAT THE ESC SYSTEM SHOULD GO INACTIVE WHEN A FAULT IS DETECTED, NOT CUT POWER AND AUTO APPLY BRAKES DURING NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THIS IS A SOFTWARE PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE UPDATED (QUALITY OF THE COMPONENTS NOT WITHSTANDING). THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME AS THE CAR IS UN-DRIVEABLE, EVEN TO DEALER FOR REPAIR. MOREOVER, EVEN AFTER REPAIR THE FAULT STILL "LIVES" WITHIN THE CAR SHOULD IT HAVE A SIMILAR COMPONENT FAIL IN THE SYSTEM. CONTACTED DEALER TO ARRANGE REPAIR, VEHICLE HAS 40,600 MILES (NEVER OFF ROAD). DEALER STATED IT IS LIKELY A REAR WHEEL SPEED SENSOR, COMMON FAILURE, NOT UNDER WARRANTY, AND CONFIRMED THAT THIS WAS COMMON BEHAVIOR FOR THIS TYPE FAILURE. CONTACTED FCA ON ISSUE AND LOGGED CASE, CLAIM THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS, COULD NOT EXPLAIN.

TWO MONTHS AFTER I PURCHASED MY JEEP I HAD AN ISSUE WITH REAR SEATBELT GETTING STUCK AND NOTICED A SLIGHT TEAR IN FABRIC. RECENTLY, WHEN I WENT TO GET CAR INSPECTED THAT THE TEAR WAS BIGGER AND THE CAR FAILED MASSACHUSETTS INSPECTION. SO, I PAID $400 TO REPLACE ENTIRE SEAT BELT (MY HUSBAND THOUGHT THE DOG HAD CHEWED), NOT REALIZING THE DEFECT HAD OCCURRED LONG BEFORE WE HAD GOTTEN THE PUPPY. THE WORK WAS DONE AT OHARA IN FALMOUTH. WAIT FOR PARTS WAS ABSURD. CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS TERRIBLE. NOT EVEN A MONTH AFTER THE WORK WAS COMPLETED AND THE SEATBELT TORN AGAIN.! AT THIS POINT, I INSPECTED ALL MY SEATBELTS AND NOTICES THAT BOTH REAR SEATBELTS (NOT THE MIDDLE) AND THE FRONT PASSENGER BELT ALL HAVE THE SAME EXACT TEAR TIGHT WHERE THE BUCKLE FALLS ON THE BELT. I WOULD LOVE TO BLAME THE DO, BUT THE DOG HAS NOT BEEN ALLOWED IN THE VEHICLE SINCE THE REPAIR. JEEP/CHRYSLER DOES NOT SEEMS TO BELIEVE THAT THIS A PRODUCT QUALITY DEFECT OR A MANUFACTURER ISSUE. THEY ALSO HAVE NO EXPLANATION AS TO WHY THE SEATBELTS ARE TEARING AND CLAIM THAT IT MUST BE SOMETHING THAT I AM DOING WITH THE VEHICLE. CONSIDERING THE FACT THAT I HAVE ONLY HAD 4 PASSENGERS RIDE IN MY BACKSEAT SINCE THE REPAIRS , I AM BAFFLED. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. I WOULD THINK SEATBELTS SHOULD BE FAIRLY DURABLE, BUT THESE ARE NOT. I AM DISGUSTED AT CHRYSLER'S RESPONSE AND AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY OF THESE BELTS. I CANNOT SPEND $1200 TO REPLACE BELTS THAT MAY ONLY LAST A MONTH! I HAVE ATTACHED PICS THIS DEFECT. EATBELTS AND I HAVE WASTED OVER $400(PLUS$35 FOR A REJECTION STICKER) ON A REPAIR THAT DID NOT FIX THE DEFECT IN THE SEAT BELT. DEALERSHIP HAS BEEN NO HELP. THIS IS NOT ONLY VERY DISAPPOINTING, BUT VERY INCONVENIENT ; AS WE CAN NOT USE THE REAR SEATS WITH OUT SEATBELTS AND THEREFORE THIS IS A MAJOR SAFE TY ISSUE. PLEASE CONTACT ME AT YOUR EARLIEST CONVENIENCE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE THE CONTACT'S SON WAS DRIVING 60 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ENGAGED, THE SPEEDOMETER DECREASED AND INCREASED. THE DRIVER STOPPED THE VEHICLE AND THE CRUISE CONTROL WAS DISENGAGED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 22,000.

SINCE I HAVE HAD THE CHEMICAL, THE CRUDE CONTROL WILL WORK RITE ALONG FOR A FEW WEEKS, THEN ONE DAY IT WON'T TURN ON AND I WILL HAVE TO PUSH THE BUTTON OVER 20 TIMES TO GET IT TO WORK. THE CHEMICAL WAS IN MOTION WHILE TRYING TO DO THIS ON THE HIGHWAY. ALSO RECENTLY THE STERIO WILL NO LONGER CONNECT TO BLUETOOTH. BLUETOOTH WILL NOT WORK WILL DRIVING OR STATIONARY.

WHILE DRIVING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS AT APPROXIMATELY 5-10 MILES AN HOUR ON A CITY STREET THE SHIFT LEVER (PART OF THE MANUAL NSG370 TRANSMISSION) DISLOCATED FROM THE SHIFTER MECHANISM. THE SHIFT LEVER (P/N 52060064AG ) WAS ALLOWED AN UNSAFE AMOUNT OF PLAY AND WAS ABLE TO TURN SEVERAL DEGREES IN BOTH CLOCK AND COUNTER CLOCK WISE DIRECTIONS. THIS PREVENTED ACCESS TO SOME GEARS WHILE DRIVING. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS NOTED THAT THE RUBBER BUSHING WITHIN THE METAL CYLINDER HOUSING OF THE SHIFT LEVER WAS CRACKED AND NO LONGER PROVIDED ADEQUATE TENSION TO HOLD THE SHIFT LEVER IN PLACE. AS A TEMPORARY FIX, I REMOVED THE SHIFT LEVER FROM THE SHIFTER MECHANISM AND WRAPPED A SINGLE STRIP OF DUCT TAPE AROUND THE RUBBER BUSHING. AFTER REINSTALLING THE SHIFT LEVER THERE WAS ENOUGH TENSION FOR ME TO ENGAGE EVERY GEAR WITHOUT ANY NOTABLE PLAY.

TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT COMING ON WHILE DRIVING 40+ MPH AND VEHICLE SEEMS TO ALMOST STALL OUT WHILE DRIVING. HAVE TAKEN TO DEALER AND THEY SAY THEY CANNOT FIND AN ISSUE. TAKING BACK TO DEALER AGAIN FOR RE-EVALUATION.

MY WIFE NOTICED 'HOOD FLUTTER' ON OUR JEEP RIGHT AFTER WE BOUGHT IN AND IMMEDIATELY FOUND THE 'RUGGED RIDGE HOOD CATCHES' ON AMAZON, ORDERED THEM (AT A COST OF $113.99 + TAX TO US) AND HAD ME INSTALL THEM, BEFORE WE LEFT LAS VEGAS FOR WISCONSIN TO RETURN HOME. WE WERE GOING ABOUT 75MPH TRAVELING FROM COLORADO SPRINGS TO LAS VEGAS, NV, ON I-25 AND I-40, AND EVEN THOUGH SHE IS LEGALLY BLIND SHE COULD SEE THE HOOD BOUNCING AROUND. IT SEEMED WORSE WHEN TRAVELING INTO A HEADWIND, BUT WAS STILL NOTICEABLE WITH A CROSSWIND. THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE THE RUBBER LATCHES THAT ARE USED TO HOLD THE JEEPS HOOD DOWN WERE STRETCHING ALLOWING THE HOOD TO MOVE ON OUR 2 DAY OLD JEEP.

AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ON, BUT NO CURRENT RECALLS

VEHICLE HAS DEVELOPED A RATTLE IN THE CLUTCH/TRANSMISSION ASSEMBLY. SEARCHES FOR OTHER PEOPLE AFFECTED BY THIS YIELD NUMEROUS REPORTS OF CLUTCH THROW OUT BEARING FAILURES. IT AFFECTS SHIFTING AND CLUTCH ENGAGEMENT NEGATIVELY. MAKES IT HARD TO POSITIVELY ENGAGE SHIFTS AT SPEED. MINE HAS NOT YET FAILED BUT THE DEALERSHIP AND JEEP HAVE BOTH BEEN VERY RESISTANT TO ACKNOWLEDGE A SAFETY ISSUE THAT CLEARLY AFFECTS NUMEROUS MANUAL TRANSMISSION WRANGLERS DATING BACK TO ~2008. A PERSONAL ACQUAINTANCE ALSO HAD A CLUTCH THROW OUT BEARING FAIL ON THE HIGHWAY (SAME MAKE MODEL AND YEAR VEHICLE). HE IS CURRENTLY PURSUING REPLACEMENT OF VEHICLE AFTER MASSIVE DAMAGE DONE FROM THROW OUT BEARING FAILURE. PLEASE BE AWARE THAT MY VEHICLE HAD ALREADY HAD THE SHIFTER REPLACED (RECALL FAILURE). THIS ISSUE IS SEPARATE FROM THE SHIFTER LINKAGE RECALL. I'VE ATTACHED SOME DOCUMENTATION BELOW (A SMALL SAMPLING OF THE USERS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THIS ISSUE FOR YEARS)

I AM ON THE SECOND WINDSHIELD IN LESS THAN 2 YEARS. THE FIRST ONE COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY IMPACT AS IT OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. THE SECOND TIME IN LESS THAN 6 MONTHS (FIRST WINDSHIELD WAS REPLACED WITH MOPAR OEM PARTS) I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT WHEN I SAW IT CRACK, THERE WAS NO IMPACT. I HAD MY DEFROSTERS ON HIGH HEAT AND HIGH FAN. THE CRACK WENT FROM THE CENTER OF THE WINDSHIELD ALL THE WAY TO THE DRIVERS SIDE. RESEARCHING ON LINE THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND BETTER GLASS SHOULD BE INSTALLED.

RECEIVED SEVERAL RECALL LETTERS FROM FCA. FINALLY CALLED THE DEALER TO SCHEDULE WHAT YOU SAY IS A 2 HOUR REPAIR. FIRST PROBLEM, THEY SAY THEY HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY PARTS TO EFFECT A REPAIR ON ANY OF THE EFFECTED VEHICLES . THAT HAS BEEN OVER ONE YEAR. NOW THAT YOU ARE SENDING OUT THE NOTICES FOR A YEAR, MY WIFE IS CONCERNED THAT IF SHE WERE TO BE INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT, THE AIR BAGS MAY NOT DEPLOY AS DESIGNED. THERE HAS TO BE SOME KIND OF TIME FRAME FOR THE MANUFACTURER TO MAKE NEEDED REPAIRS OR WHAT GOOD IS YOUR DEPARTMENT?

CASTING SAND OR SOME OTHER FACTORY SLUDGE IN THE COOLING SYSTEM. KILLED MY HEATER CORE AND MAYBE MORE.

HEAD GASKETS HAD TO BE REPLACED AT 25712 MILES IN JULY 2017. CURRENTLY STILL LOSING COOLANT. FCA TECH ADVISOR STATES THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. PHOTO ATTACHED IS FROM JANUARY 5,2018. I HAVE SUBMITTED DOCUMENTATION TO FCA IN REGARDS TO THE ONGOING LOSS. FCA IS REQUESTING ANOTHER DEALER VISIT, THIS WOULD BE THE FOURTH SINCE THE GASKETS WERE REPLACED. CARFAX REPORT FOR EVERY VISIT IS DEPLETING THE VALUE DUE THE ALL THE RED FLAGS.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND THE ENGINE JUST DIED. I PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND WHEN I PUT IT IN GEAR IT ACTED AS IF IT WERE IN NEUTRAL. I THEN SHUT OFF THE VEHICLE AND RESTARTED IT AND IT DROVE FINE. THIS HAPPENS RANDOMLY (COULD OCCUR TWICE IN ONE DAY OR NOT FOR 2 WEEKS) AND AT DIFFERENT SPEEDS (CITY AND HIGHWAY). I ALSO HAVE HAD RANDOM MISFIRE CODES AND CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR CODES. SOMETIMES THE CODES CLEAR ON THEIR OWN AND I HAVE HAD TO RESET THE CODES WITH A TUNER. I SPOKE TO THE DEALER AND IT WILL BE AROUND A WEEK BEFORE THEY CAN LOOK AT IT, EVEN IN LIGHT OF THE DANGER FOR AN ENGINE JUST DYING.

AROUND 8:00 PM ON 9 NOV 2017 I WAS DRIVING ON A BUSY HIGHWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY 60 - 65 MPH IN THE FAR LEFT LANE WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, ABS LIGHT, AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT CAME ON. THEN THE VEHICLE ENGINE SHUT OFF. IT WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON AND I HAD TO SLOWLY COAST TO THE FAR RIGHT LANE. I LET THE VEHICLE SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES AND IT STARTED RIGHT UP, THE SAME WARNING LIGHTS WERE ON AND WHEN I TRIED TO PRESS DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL IT WOULD JUST MAKE A THUMPING NOISE AND WOULD ONLY MOVE A LITTLE BIT. WAITED AN HOUR FOR A TOW TRUCK. IT IS CURRENTLY AT A DEALERSHIP TO FIND OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT.

ENGINE DIES WHEN DRIVING. WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON TPM LIGHT COMES ON THEN ENGINE DIES. SOMETIMES WHEN DRIVING THE WIPERS COME ON, TPM LIGHT, THEN CAR SLOWES BUT RECOVERS OR DIES COMPLETLY. WHEN STARTING CAR TURN KEY TO START AND THE STARTER CONTINUES WHEN YOU LET GO OF KEY. WAS DRIVING IN THE RAIN, JEEP DIES WAS ABLE TO GET TO SIDE OF HIGHWAY AND I HAD IT TOWED (AAA) TO JEEP SERVICE, THEY REPLACED THE BATTERY AND TIPM. I ATTEMPTED TO PICK UP NEXT DAY AFTER IT WAS REPAIRED, BUT THEY COULD NOT GET IT TO START.. DTC CODESU0127 LOST COMM WITH THE TIRE PRESS MONITOR MOD. DTC B2305, WIPER PARK SWITCH INPUT CIRCUIT HIGH (STUCK HIGH). HAPPENS WHEN FIRST STARTING, ON BACK ROADS AND ON THE HIGHWAY

WHILE DRIVING IN NORMAL CITY CONDITIONS THE "ESC" LIGHT ILLUMINATED FOLLOWED BY THE "ABS" WARNING AND THE "HILL DECENT CONTROL" FLASHING. I WAS NEARLY AT MY INTENDED DESTINATION SO I CONTINUED THEN PARKED AT MY DESTINATION. ONCE I FINISHED WITH MY BUSINESS, I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND NOTED THE "ESC" AND "ABS" LIGHTS ON STEADY, AS I TURNED RIGHT ONTO THE CITY ROADWAY THE "ESC" STARTED FLASHING AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, RPM'S DECREASED, BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT STALL. I EASED OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND IT SEEMED TO STABILIZE, THEN AS APPLIED THE ACCELERATOR AGAIN, SAME THING, VEHICLE HESITATED AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I TURNED RIGHT, OFF THE ROADWAY, ONTO A SIDE STREET AT WHICH TIME THE "ESC" AND "ABS" LIGHTS EXTINGUISHED AND THE NORMAL OPERATION RETURNED. THE ENTIRE SCENARIO OCCURRED TWO MORE TIMES DURING THE NEXT 3 MILES OF CITY STOP AND GO DRIVING, AFTER WHICH THE "ESC" AND "ABS" LIGHTS REMAINED ON STEADY AND THE VEHICLE NO LONGER HAD ACCELERATION ISSUES. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE HOME SAFELY WITH THE "ESC" AND "ABS" ILLUMINATED STEADILY. PLAN TO TAKE TO WARRANTY REPAIR FACILITY, SUSPECT FAULTY WHEEL SPEED SENSOR, BUT UNABLE TO KNOW WHICH WHEEL SENSOR HAS FAILED.

ENGINE DIES WHEN DRIVING. WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON TPM LIGHT COMES ON THEN ENGINE DIES. SOMETIMES WHEN DRIVING THE WIPERS COME ON, TPM LIGHT, THEN CAR SLOWES BUT RECOVERS. WHEN STARTING CAR TURN KEY TO START AND THE STARTER CONTINUES WHEN YOU LET GO OF KEY. HAVE APPT WITH JEEP, THEY SAY THEY MAY OR MAY NOT BE ABLE TO FIX IF THEY CAN REPRODUCE. DTC CODESU0127 LOST COMM WITH THE TIRE PRESS MONITOR MOD. DTC B2305, WIPER PARK SWITCH INPUT CIRCUIT HIGH (STUCK HIGH). HAPPENS WHEN FIRST STARTING, ON BACK ROADS AND ON THE HIGHWAY. BEEN HAPPENING FOR 3 MONTHS BUT GETTING WORSE

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH, WHILE IT WAS RAINING, ANOTHER VEHICLE ATTEMPTED TO MAKE AN ILLEGAL U-TURN AND COULD NOT MAKE THE FULL TURN, THE OTHER VEHICLE REVERSED INTO THE LEFT LANE WHERE THE CONTACT WAS LOCATED. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE OTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED INJURIES THE LEFT SHOULDER, THE HEAD, THE RIGHT ANKLE, SWELLING IN THE GAUL BLADDER AND TO HER BACK THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE CONTACT CALLED CERRITOS DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM AT (562) 402-5335 LOCATED AT 18803 STUDEBAKER RD, CERRITOS, CA 90703 WHERE THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED THAT SHE WOULD RECEIVE A CALL BACK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY FURTHER ASSISTANCE AND THE CONTACTOR WAS PROVIDED CASE NUMBER 2548689. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 800. ...UPDATED 10/17/17 *BF UPDATED 7/27/18*JB

2016 JEEP WRANGLER. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO UNSAFE DESIGN FEATURES IN VEHICLE. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL WERE NOT ILLUMINATED WELL ENOUGH.

MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON WAS ORDERED AND PURCHASED ON 8/18/2016 AND ORDERED STRAIGHT FROM THE CHRSYLER PLANT THROUGH LEITH JEEP DEALERSHIP IN RALEIGH, NC. WHILE TRANSPORTING MY DAUGHTER FROM A DR. APPOINTMENT THE JEEP CAUGHT ON FIRE WHILE TRAVELING ON AVIATION PARKWAY IN RALEIGH, NC ON 9/8/2017 AT APPROXIMATELY 10:45AM. THE JEEP SUDDENLY HAD SMOKE COMING INTO THE MAIN CABIN FROM THE RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE UNDER THE GLOVE BOX AREA. I QUICKLY PULLED THE JEEP TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY AND REMOVED THE KEYS FROM THE IGNITION HOPING THE SMOKE WOULD STOP. AS I TOOK THE KEYS OUT OF THE IGNITION THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE DASH WAS MELTING AT MY DAUGTHERS FEET AND FLAMES WERE COMING INTO THE CAR AND UNDER THE HOOD FROM THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. WE QUICKJLY EXITED THE JEEP AND CALLED 911. BY THE TIME WE GOT 10 FEET AWAY THE CAR BECAME ENGULPED IN FLAMES. THE FIRE OCCURRED WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION. WE KNOW THE FIRE STARTED ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT AROUND THE MAIN WIRING UNIT DUE TO WHERE THE SMOKE STARTED. THE FIRE DEPT ALSO STATED THAT THE ORIGIN WAS NOTED ON THE RIGHT SIDE OF THE VEHICLE DUE TO THE MORE SEVERE BURN PATTERN TO THE RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE OF THE JEEP COMPARED TO THE LEFT SIDE. ALL SERVICE WAS COMPLETED BY OUR CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP AND THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS NOTED. THERE WAS 1 RECALL (FRONT IMPACT SENSOR) ON MY VIN # AND THE DEALERSHIP COMPLETED THE REQUIRED WORK. PLEASE SEE ALL SERVICE RECORDS ATTACHED.

2016 JEEP WRANGLER. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ELECTRIC WINCH RECALL. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE IN ORDER TO PERFORM THE RECALL THE ELECTRIC WINCH WOULD HAVE TO BE REMOVED AND REINSTALLED AT THE OWNER'S EXPENSE. UPDATED 09/14/2017*JS

MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WAS PARKED IN AN ALMOST PERFECTLY FLAT PARKING LOT, LOCKED, WITH NO ONE IN THE VEHICLE. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS NOT ON. THE KEYS WERE NOT IN THE VEHICLE. IT BEGAN TO ROLL AWAY BACKWARDS OVER A HILLSIDE, ABOUT A 20 FOOT DROP, INTO THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY ROADWAY. THE JEEP LANDED ON THE BACK BUMPER/BACK DOOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. AFTER ACTIVATING THE TURN SIGNAL, IT WOULD NOT DISENGAGE. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE AUGUSTA CHRYSLER DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND DIAGNOSED THAT THE STEERING COLUMN MODULE NEEDED TO BE DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 16,000.

VEHICLE HAS EXHIBITED MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES OF RAPID ACCELERATION ONCE THE BRAKE PEDAL IS RELEASED. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE ENGINE LIGHT AND THE ENGINE CONTROLLER LIGHT WILL SUDDENLY COME ON AND THE VEHICLE WILL SEEM TO LOOSE POWER. APPLYING THE BREAK TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOES NOT SEEM TO HELP AS THE VEHICLE WILL BEGIN TO ACCELERATE BACK UP TO DRIVING SPEED ONCE THE BRAKE PEDAL IS RELEASED (ALMOST LIKE WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL RENEGADES. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKE TO THE JEEP DEALER WHERE'RE THEY RESET THE CODE SEVERAL TIMES AND RELEARNED THE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR WITH A FIRMWARE REBOOT. THIS HAS NOT FIXED THE ISSUE AND JEEP IS NOT ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE CAUSE. THIS PROBLEM CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AS THE VEHICLE HAS SUDDENLY ACCELERATED UP TO 30-35 MPH WHEN TURNING INTO PARKING LOTS OR AWAY FROM STOP SIGNS. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN IN PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE HESITATED TO ACCELERATE WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. THE ABS WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,530.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE GEAR SHIFTER FAILED TO WORK WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE CONTACT'S RESIDENCE AND THEN TOWED TO THE LOCAL DEALER (FIRST CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM LOCATED AT 280 E WASHINGTON ST, NORTH ATTLEBOROUGH, MA 02760; (508) 316-8400), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,640.

I RECEIVED THE RECALL FOR NHTSA 16V-734 AND THE DEALER REFUSED TO PERFORM RECALL WITH OUT ME PAYING MORE THAN $300 BECAUSE MY AFTER MARKET BUMPER WITH INTEGRATED CRUSH CANS WOULD BE TOO HARD FOR THEM TO WORK ON. IT IS AN ARB BUMPER

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, ANOTHER VEHICLE SWITCHED LANES IN FRONT OF THE CONTACT AND ABRUPTLY DEPRESSED THE BRAKE PEDAL. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT CRASHED INTO THE REAR OF THE OTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE CONTACT SUSTAINED NECK AND BACK INJURIES THAT REQUIRED MEDICAL ATTENTION. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. A DEALER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,800.

GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY I REACHED THE SPEED LIMIT AND MERGED INTO THE RIGHT LANE, WHEN I EASED OFF THE THROTTLE I NOTICED THAT THE THROTTLE PHYSICALLY STAYED IN PLACE AND THE VEHICLE KEPT ACCELERATING. I TAPPED THE BREAKS AND RECEIVED THE THROTTLE POSITION INDICATOR ALARM. I LOOKED AHEAD TO SEE HOW MUCH ROOM ON THE ROAD I HAD AND WHERE OTHER VEHICLES WERE, AND I HAD SOME ROOM. LOOKING AT THE THROTTLE PEDAL I SAW NO REASON WHY IT WOULD BE STUCK IN POSITION, THE MOPAR RUBBER MATTS FOR JEEP HAVE A CUT AWAY AS TO NOT BE IN THE WAY OF THE PEDAL. I THROUGH THE JEEP IN NEUTRAL (ITS AN AUTOMATIC) AND SLAMMED THE THROTTLE PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES WITH MY FOOT AND IT RELEASED AND RETURNED TO IDLE POSITION. AFTERWARDS I PLACE THE GEAR IN DRIVE AND REGAINED CONTROL. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP IN HARRISONBURG SAID THE FLOOR MATS ARE AFTERMARKET AND WERE THE CAUSE. ALTHOUGH THE CUTAWAY IS CLEAR. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED, ALTHOUGH OTHER I HAVE READ HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. IT WAS TERRIFYING AS THE JEEP WENT UP TO 80 MPH IN A 60 MPH ZONE BEFORE I ARRESTED THE SITUATION.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED AND, UPON RELEASE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SLOW DOWN. WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, IT ALSO FAILED TO SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE FOR APPROXIMATELY 20 SECONDS. WHEN THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL WAS RELEASED, A RED LIGHTING BOLT WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED, INDICATING THAT THE BRAKE AND ACCELERATOR PEDALS WERE DEPRESSED AT THE SAME TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER AND A COMPUTER IN THE VEHICLE WAS REPLACED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

SHIFT LEVER ROTATES 180 DEGREES LEFT AND RIGHT WHEN SHIFTING FROM GEAR TO GEAR MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO DRIVE. THIS OCCURS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND IN MOTION.

ON JANUARY 30, 2017 ANOTHER VEHICLE PULLED OUT IN FRONT OF ME AND STOPPED. I HIT THAT VEHICLE WITH MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER AT ABOUT 30-35MPH. THE IMPACT TOTALED BOTH VEHICLES. MY JEEP'S FRAME WAS BUCKLED AND TWISTED ALL OF THE WAY TO THE REAR BUMPER. THE REAR BODY MOUNT BOLT WERE EVEN BENT. THE AIRBAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY AND THE SEAT BELTS DIDN'T PRETENSION. I HIT THE DASH WITH BOTH KNEES AND GOT ABDOMINAL MUSCLE INJURIES AS WELL AS SEVERE WHIPLASH. I AM STILL UNDER A DOCTOR'S CARE FOR MY INJURIES INCLUDING A PINCHED NERVE BETWEEN C5-C6. FCA OPENED AN INVESTIGATION AND SENT ME A LETTER STATING THAT "THE RATE OF DECELERATION NECESSARY TO ACTIVATE THE AIR BAG AND AIR BAG SYSTEM WAS NOT PRESENT DURING THIS ACCIDENT". THE IMPACT BUCKLED MY FRAME AND TOTALED A 5 MONTH OLD VEHICLE, BUT FCA WANTS ME TO BELIEVE THAT IT WASN'T SEVERE ENOUGH FOR THE AIR BAGS TO DEPLOY. FCA IS EITHER BEING DECEPTIVE OR THEIR VEHICLES ARE SIMPLY UNSAFE. EITHER WAY, DUE TO THEIR DECEPTIVE ACTIONS, IT IS IMPOSSIBLE TO KNOW HOW MANY ACCIDENTS ARE TRULY RELATED TO THIS VEHICLE DEFECT. I FOUND OUT ABOUT THE RECALL (S76) THE WEEK AFTER MY ACCIDENT WHEN I FILED A COMPLAINT WITH FCA. MY VEHICLE WAS IN THE DEALERSHIP FOR ITS FIRST OIL CHANGE TWO WEEKS AFTER THIS RECALL WAS ISSUED, BUT IT WASN'T REPAIRED AND I WASN'T INFORMED OF A RECALL. I RECEIVED MY RECALL NOTICE TODAY, 74 DAYS AFTER MY ACCIDENT. I HAVE THE POLICE REPORT, PICTURES OF THE JEEP AND THE FRAME, THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER'S CELL PHONE NUMBER AS WELL AS ALL CORRESPONDENCE WITH FCA, SHOULD YOU WANT IT...UPDATED 05/09/17 *BF UPDATED 9/27/18*JB

TICKING NOISE FROM ENGINE. REPLACED ALL LIFTERS AND ROCKER ARMS.

WHEN THE JEEP IS STOPPED AND YOU WANT TO GET OUT OF THE FRONT OR REAR DOOR. AT THE DOOR THRESHOLD WHEN YOU STEP ON THE CARPET IT WILL COLLAPSE AND GIVE YOU ABOUT A 1-INCH SPACE WHICH CAUSES YOU TO TRIP. I ASK THE SERVICE CENTER AND JEEP ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY SAID SO WHAT THIS IS THE WAY IT WAS DESIGNED.

JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS ON THE FREEWAY, WHEN THE ENTIRE STEERING SYSTEM STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY. ALMOST CAUSED A HORRIFIC CRASH AT 70 MPH....AND THIS IS THE 5TH TIMES IT HAS HAPPENED IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS.

CURRENTLY A RECALL FOR A SENSOR OF THE AIRBAGS. I INSTALLED MOPAR LED HEADLIGHTS. THEY SAY THE HEADLIGHTS GET DESTROYED DURING THE FIX AND THEY PUT STOCK HEADLIGHTS BACK IN, NOT WHAT I CURRENTLY HAVE. THEY ARE FACTORY MADE MOPAR HEADLIGHTS THAT COST APPROX $950.00. I DON'T WANT TO GET THIS RECALL DONE BECAUSE I DON'T THINK I SHOULD LOSE OUT ON THAT MUCH MONEY. CHRYSLER DESIGNED THESE HEADLIGHTS SO THAT CAN ONLY BE PUT IN ONCE. THEY SHOULD SUFFER THE CONSEQUENCES OF THAT DESIGN BY REPLACING THEM FOR A SAFETY RECALL, NOT HAVE ME LOSE OUT ON THE MONEY I SPENT MAKING MY VEHICLE SAFER.

TRAVELING ON A TWO LANE HIGHWAY UNDER CLEAR CONDITIONS, MID-DAY, LIGHT DRIZZLE, THIS 2016 JEEP WRANGLER 4WD WITH LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON IT HYDROPLANED INTO AN ON-COMING SEMI TRACTOR TRAILER RESULTING IN A HEAD ON COLLISION AND ROLLOVER. NO OTHER CAR IN FRONT OF NOR BEHIND THIS VEHICLE HAD HYDROPLANING ISSUES. THIS VEHICLE WAS TOTALED AND THE DRIVER CRITICALLY INJURED WITH LONG TERM DISABILITY PROGNOSIS. INVESTIGATE THE FOLLOWING FOR FAILURES & SAFETY RISKS: 1. TIRES (LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON THEM) 2. FACTORY INSTALLED SOFTWARE DESIGNED TO TAKE CONTROL OF VEHICLE 3. ROAD RESURFACING

2016 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON UNLIMITED. PRIOR TO PURCHASE, THE TRACTION LIGHT WAS ON. NOT EVEN 5 MILES AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP ON THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE HAS EXTREME SHAKING OF THE STEERING WHEEL, THE VEHICLE VEERS TO THE RIGHT WITHOUT THE STEERING WHEEL TURNING TO THE RIGHT, REAR TRACTION SLIPPAGE, AND A LIT TRACTION LIGHT ON THE DASH. THIS HAPPENED ON A DRY, SMOOTH, STRAIGHT- STRETCH OF HIGHWAY (65-70MPH) COMING HOME FROM PURCHASING THE VEHICLE. VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALERSHIP, WHERE THE DEALERSHIP SAID THE LIT TRACTION LIGHT WAS PROBABLY THE PROBLEM AND FACTORY RESET THE VEHICLE AND SAID THE VEHICLE WAS PERFECT. 4 MILES INTO THE 7 MILE DRIVE HOME, EVERYTHING RECURRED AGAIN MERGING RIGHT TO TAKE A RIGHT HAND HIGHWAY EXIT -RAMP (~67MPH, 185MI). PRIOR TO TOWING THE VEHICLE TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP, IT IS NOTED THAT WATER IS ACCUMULATING ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE FLOOR AND KEEPS REAPPEARING. THE FREEDOM TOP HAS BEEN IN ORIGINAL FACTORY STATE AND HAS NOT BEEN REMOVED AND REINSTALLED. THE BATTERY WAS ALSO DEAD AT TIME OF TOW AND NEED JUMPSTARTED. THE TRACTION LIGHT WAS LIT ON THE DASH AFTER THE JUMPSTART. THE FAILURE MILEAGE IS 188 MILES. *JS

WATER IS ACCUMULATING ON DRIVERS SIDE FLOORBOARD AND KEEPS REAPPEARING. CARPET IS BEGINNING TO SMELL MUSTY. SEEMS TO DEVELOP WHETHER IT IS RAINING OR NOT. THE FREEDOM TOP HAS BEEN IN ORIGINAL FACTORY STATE AND HAS NOT BEEN REMOVED AND REINSTALLED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE DAY OF PURCHASE. (NEW)

DRIVER SEAT AND PASSENGER SEAT ROCKED FORWARD TO BACK , LOOSE AND A SAFETY CONCERN HAD BACK TO DEALER 3 TIMES , REPLACED SEAT FRAME 1 TIME AND RESULT WAS WORSE THAN BEFORE, WAS TOLD NO ISSUE AND ALL WERE LIKE THAT, SEAT IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS YOU ARE NOT STABLE WHEN DRIVING ------------

THE CAR WILL BEGIN TO ACCELERATE ON ITS OWN WHILE DRIVING AND THE ONLY WAY TO STOP ACCELERATION IS BY BRAKING. IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP SEVERAL TIMES. WE ARE TOLD THEY REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY AND IT STOPPED FOR A FEW MONTHS BUT IS NOW DOING THIS AGAIN. ALSO THE VEHICLE WILL DOWN SHIFT TO FIRST GEAR AT RANDOM TIMES...UPDATED 06/06/17 *BF UPDATED 10/19/2017*JS

ENGINE TICKING ON LEFT SIDE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 3.6 PENSTAR ENGINE. I'VE TAKEN IT TO TWO DIFFERENT JEEP DEALERSHIPS AND BOTH OF THEM SAID PRETTY MUCH THAT THIS IS SOMETHING I'LL JUST HAVE TO DEAL WITH. THAT IS TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE. THIS WAS OVER A 30 THOUSAND DOLLAR INVESTMENT. THIS JEEP DIDN'T HAVE THIS PROBLEM WHEN I PURCHASED IT OTHERWISE I WOULDN'THAVE BOUGHT IT. LOOKING TO THE NHTSA FOR A SOLUTION.

GEAR SHIFTER "SLIPPED" TO THE LEFT. I WAS ONLY ABLE TO USE 1ST AND 3RD GEARS! WHEN USING 1ST GEAR, THE GEAR SHIFTER WAS AGAINST MY RIGHT KNEE!! I WAS NOT ABLE TO "FIND" 2ND GEAR! I TOOK MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS AS IT IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE! "INVESTIGATING" ONLINE, SPECIFICALLY WRANGLER FORUMS, THERE ARE OTHER DRIVERS WHO HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. IT SEEMS THERE IS A FAULTY BUSHING THAT BREAKS!

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERSHIP FOR 2 DAYS AND WON'T BE ATTENDED TO FOR ANOTHER 3 DAYS ACCORDING TO SERVICE MAN. I JUST PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE AND NEED ANSWERS ASAP ON WHATS GOING ON? AND WHEN I WILL GET MY VEHICLE BACK?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE CRASHED INTO ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED. THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SUSTAINED MINOR INJURIES THAT DID NOT REQUIRE MEDICAL ATTENTION. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V734000 (AIR BAGS). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 15,000.

HEAD LIGHTS EXTREMELY POOR LIGHTING AND VISIBILITY. CAN LEAVE HIGH BEAMS ON AND NO ONE FLASHES ME TO CHANGE TO LOW BEAMS. I FIND IT VERY DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AT NIGHT. WE LIVE IN THE MOUNTAINS WHICH IS WHY WE PURCHASED THE JEEP IN THE FIRST PLACE. WE HAVE HAD THEM CHECKED AT DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAY NOTHING IS WRONG. I FEEL THAT JEEP NEEDS TO RECALL HEADLIGHTS AND REPLACE WITH A BETTER LIGHT. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

TOOK OUR JEEP IN TO AUTONATION CHRYSLER JEEP ARAPAHOE IN CENTENNIAL, CO AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T PERFORM THE RECALL WORK WITHOUT REMOVING THE WENCH ON THE FRONT OF OUR JEEP. THEY SAID WE WOULD HAVE TO PAY 5 HOURS OF TECH TIME TO REMOVE AND RE-INSTALL THE WENCH IN ORDER FOR THEM TO PERFORM THE RECALL WORK. DIDN'T TELL US WHEN WE BROUGHT IT IN, 9 HOURS LATER WHEN I CALLED TO CHECK ON IT THEY SAID THIS. THE RECALL LETTER STATES THAT IF THE DEALER FAILS OR IS UNABLE TO REMEDY THIS DEFECT WITHOUT CHARGE AND WITHIN A REASONABLE TIME WE WERE TO FILE A COMPLAINT. *TR

OUR JEEP HAS A RECALL FOR A SENSOR WIRE IN THE FRONT AREA OF THE VEHICLE. I DROPPED THE JEEP AT THE DEALERSHIP (MALL OF GEORGIA CHRYSLER JEEP IN BUFORD GA) AND RECEIVED A SHUTTLE RIDE HOME. I WAS CALLED A FEW HOURS LATER BY MY ADVISOR [XXX] AND TOLD THAT I NEEDED TO REMOVE THE WINCH, WINCH PLATE, LIGHT BAR, AND LIGHTS ON THE FRONT BUMPER. THE TECH NEEDS TO REMOVE GRILL AND CANNOT WITH THIS EQUIPMENT IN THE WAY. THEY OFFERED TO REMOVE ALL THE EQUIPMENT FOR ME FOR $250. I TOLD THE ADVISOR ([XXX]) THAT THE LETTER RECEIVED IN THE MAIL IS ADAMANT THAT THIS IS TO BE DONE AT NO COST TO THE OWNER. HE TOLD ME THAT IT DID NOT INCLUDE CUSTOM EQUIPMENT. I CALLED FCA, AS MY LETTER EXPLAINED I SHOULD DO IF THE DEALER WAS NOT RESOLVING MY ISSUE. I EXPLAINED THE SITUATION AS I HAVE ABOVE. THE FCA AGENT (I DO NOT HAVE HER NAME, BUT GAVE THEM MY INFO) FIRST INDICATED TO ME THAT THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY CHARGES FOR RECALL REPAIRS, SO SHE CALLED THE DEALER, TALKED TO [XXX], AND CAME BACK TO MY LINE TELLING ME EXACTLY WHAT [XXX] HAD TOLD ME THAT A CHARGE WOULD BE EXPECTED TO REMOVE THE CUSTOM EQUIPMENT SO THEY CAN REPAIR THIS VEHICLE. SHOULD THERE EVER BE A REASON FOR CHARGING A CUSTOMER FOR A RECALL REPAIR, IN A SAFETY RECALL SITUATION SUCH AS THIS? *TR

MANUAL TRANSMISSION GEAR SHIFT LEVER GETS REALLY SLOPPY GEAR SHIFT ALMOST HITS FLOOR AND ROTATES

BROKEN SHIFTER. WAS OUT IN THE COUNTRY AND AFTER LUNCH I WAS ABOUT TO START DRIVING BACK HOME AND FELT THE SHIFTER KINDA LOOSE. AS I PULLED INTO THE HIGHWAY I NOTICED I WASN'T ABLE TO SHIFT 5TH OR 6TH GEAR AND THEN NOTICED THE SHIFTER WAS ABLE TO ROTATE... CRAZY. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO SELECT A GEAR, GOOD THING IS THAT I WAS ALREADY ON THE HIGHWAY AND NO NEED TO DOWNSHIFT ALTHOUGH HAD TO DRIVE ONLY IN 5TH GEAR AS IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO SELECT 6TH GEAR. I AM CLOSE TO THE HIGHWAY SO AS SOON AS I PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY, I DROVE HOME; IT WAS A BIT SCARY; I THOUGHT I HAD BROKEN SOMETHING. AS SOON AS I GOT HOME AND PARKED MY JEEP I CONTACTED A COUPLE OF FRIENDS AND TOLD ME TO EITHER TAKE IT TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY OR CALL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE AS MAYBE A TOW TRUCK WOULD BE NEEDED. NEXT DAY IN THE MORNING, DECIDED TO GIVE IT A TRY AND DROVE IT, VERY CAREFULLY, TO THE DEALER (IS LIKE 3 MILES AWAY FROM MY PLACE). ONCE THERE, THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME SHE HADN'T SEEN OR KNOWN OF A SIMILAR ISSUE AND THAT YES, THE SHIFTER WAS EITHER LOOSE OR BROKEN. FIXED UNDER WARRANTY IN 4 DAYS, NO EXPLANATION. I TOLD HER WHEN I PICKED IT UP THAT TO ME IT WAS A SAFETY ISSUE AND I HAD DROVE IT WITHOUT KNOWING THE FULL EXTENT OF THE ISSUE.

THE SHIFTER ON MY MANUAL 2016 JEEP WRANGLER BROKE TODAY WHILE I WAS GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY. IT ALMOST CAUSED A BAD ACCIDENT. THERE ARE 4,000 MILES ON THE CAR. IT FELT LIKE IT BECAME DISENGAGED AND WAS TURNING SIDEWAYS AND MAKING CRACKLING SOUNDS, LIKE BROKEN BONES. IT BECAME DIFFICULT TO PUT INTO GEAR OR TO KNOW WHICH GEAR THE CAR WAS IN. I MANAGED TO PULL OVER AND AM WAITING FOR ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. A QUICK GLANCE THROUGH A JEEP FORUM AND I FOUND MANY OTHERS WITH THE SAME EXACT DESCRIPTION. ALL 2016 JEEP WRANGLERS. THEY MENTION HAVING TO REPLACE A FAULTY PART (52060064AG). ISSUES ARE STARTING TO BECOME WELL DOCUMENTED HERE: HTTP://WWW.WRANGLERFORUM.COM/SHOWTHREAD.PHP?P=27212978

MANUAL TRANSMISSION WILL NOT STAY IN REVERSE AND POPS OUT OF GEAR. WHEN BACKING UP YOUR HAVE TO HOLD IT IN WHICH TAKES ALOT OF FORCE BUT STILL POPS OUT 95% OF THE TIME. BEEN THIS WAY SINCE WE BOUGHT IT. ONLY 3500 MILES ON THE VEHICLE.

HARD TOP LEAKS AROUND THE FREEDOM PANELS EVERYTIME IT RAINS CAUSING THE SEATS, FLOOR AND DASHBOARD TO GET WET.

JEEP LEAKS EVERYTIME IT RAINS. LEAKS ON BOTH SIDES BUT PASSENGER SIDE IS THE WORSE. SOAKS THE FLOORS AND PASSENGER SIDE SEAT. DRIPS OUT FROM UNDER THE DASH AS WELL ON PASSENGER SIDE. WATER CAN CAUSE ELECTRICAL ISSUES UNDER THE DASH, MOISTURE IN FLOOR AND SEAT CAUSE THE WINDOWS TO FOG UP AT TIMES WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO SEE OUT OF, AND PRESENCE OF A MILDEW SMELL WILL EVENTUALLY TURN INTO MOLD. VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN SHOP MANY TIMES AND STILL NOT REPAIRED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHEN THE DEFOGGER WAS ACTIVATED, IT FAILED TO RESPOND. AS A RESULT, THE VISIBILITY THROUGH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WAS OBSCURED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,619.

OUR 2 WEEK OLD 2016 JEEP WRANGLER WILLYS WAS IN A SOLO COLLISION IN JULY 2016. MY PARTNER HIT WATER, HYDROPLANED, AND THEN HIT A GUARDRAIL WITH THE FRONT END AT 50+ MPH ON A 4 LANE HIGHWAY. SHE WENT AIRBORNE, FLIPPED SEVERAL TIMES AND WAS EJECTED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE SEATS CAME OUT AND ROLL BARS FAILED, BUT THE AIRBAGS ALSO NEVER WENT OFF DESPITE THE INITIAL IMPACT. WE DO NOT KNOW IF SHE WAS WEARING HER SEATBELT. SHE SUFFERED A TRAUMATIC BRAIN INJURY, COLLAPSED LUNG, SHATTERED PELVIS, BROKEN BACK, BROKEN HIP, BROKEN EYE SOCKET, COMPOUND FRACTURE OF HER ANKLE, BROKEN TAILBONE, MULTIPLE DEEP LACERATIONS AND WAS IN ICU FOR WEEKS. THE AIRBAGS NEVER WENT OFF! ..UPDATED 04/11/17 *BF UPDATED 07/12/2017*JS

THIS VEHICLE HAS A POSSIBLE AIR BAG CLOCK SPRING MALFUNCTION..THIS IS A SERIOUS THING BUT THIS IS A 2016 MODEL....NOW WE TRADED IN S 2011 WRANGLER THAT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. 5 YEARS LATER AND STILL NOT FIXED SO I NEED AN ANSWER... THE CLOCK SPRING WAS REPLACED ON THE 2011 ABOUT 4 YEARS AGO BUT BURNED TO THE GROUND ABOUT 8/01/2016.

GEAR "STICK" -- MANUAL TRANSMISSION SYSTEM: 1. "WHEN CHANGING INTO SECOND GEAR, THE GEAR STICK SHIFTS TOWARD THE LEFT, TOUCH OR NEAR TOUCHING THE DISENGAGED, LOWERED-- EMERGENCY BRAKE LEVER--WITHOUT GOING INTO SECOND GEAR. 2. GEAR OCCASIONALLY DOES NOT GO INTO NEUTRAL WH EN SHIFTED TO THAT POSITION. 3. GEAR STICK TWIST, AND SHIFT PASS REVERSE WITHOUT GOING INTO REVERSE.

MY 2016 MANUAL JEEP RUBICON UNLIMITED (APPROX 14K MILES) DROVE/SHIFTED FINE ON MY WAY TO WORK (ABOUT 3 MILES, VERY LIGHT TRAFFIC) LAST NIGHT, BUT WHEN I GOT BACK IN THE JEEP TO HEAD HOME, THE STICK-SHIFT WAS ALL CADDY WOMPUS AND I STRUGGLED TO GET IT INTO GEAR TO BACK OUT OF MY PARKING SPACE. IT FELT LIKE IT HAD TWISTED SIDEWAYS AND FALLEN DOWN. TO GET IT INTO 1ST GEAR, I HAD TO SHOVE IT FAR TO THE LEFT TOWARD THE STEERING WHEEL, AND FOR 2ND GEAR, I HAD TO PRACTICALLY JAM THE SHIFTER INTO MY LEG. FINDING NEUTRAL AND REVERSE WAS TRICKY--THE WHOLE SHIFTER MECHANISM FELT LIKE BROKEN BONES AND MUSH. I WAS ABLE TO GET IT HOME (THANKFULLY A SHORT DRIVE ON BACK ROADS WHERE I COULD GO SLOW AND THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC) BUT WAS BAFFLED BY HOW IT WAS FINE EARLIER, THEN SUDDENLY JUNK. THANKFULLY I WAS NOT ON THE HIGHWAY OR ON A TRIP SOMEWHERE WITH MY DAUGHTER IN THE JEEP. A TOW TRUCK PICKED IT UP THIS MORNING AT OUR HOME BECAUSE DRIVING IT 16 MILES TO THE DEALER IN THE CITY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC (NOT KNOWING IF SHIFTING WOULD BE AN OPTION) SEEMED VERY DANGEROUS. THE REP AT THE JEEP DEALER SAID HE HAD NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE, HOWEVER I DISCOVERED MANY PEOPLE ON WRANGLERFORUM.COM HAVE REPORTED THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. WITHOUT HEARING BACK FROM THE DEALER YET TO VERIFY, IT APPEARS TO BE THE 52060064AG LEVER GEARSHIFT / BUSHING THAT HAS MALFUNCTIONED/BROKEN. I AM VERY DISAPPOINTED THAT MY FIRST EVER AMERICAN MADE VEHICLE FEELS LIKE CHEAP JUNK. IN ADDITION TO THIS POTENTIALLY VERY SERIOUS ISSUE, THERE HAVE BEEN OTHER MINOR IRRITATING ISSUES SUCH AS THE DRIVER SIDE MIRROR SIMPLY FALLING OFF WHILE DRIVING, AND THE FENDER OVER THE REAR WHEEL FALLING OFF. THINGS LIKE THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN WITH A NEW "TOUGH" (AND RELATIVELY EXPENSIVE) VEHICLE. I AM DISAPPOINTED AND, FRANKLY, PISSED. DOES QUALITY EVEN EXIST ANYMORE?

2016 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED BLACK BEAR EDITION 6 SPEED MANUAL. SHIFT LEVER IS MAKING CLICKING SOUND WHEN SHIFTING. SHIFTER CAN ROTATE 360 DEGREES. FEELS LOOSE WHEN SHIFTING AND INTERFERES WITH PUT JEEP INTO GEAR. UNABLE TO DRIVE VEHICLE UNTIL IT GETS FIXED. IS COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRENTY. ONLY HAD THE JEEP FOR 6 MONTHS.

I HAVE AN AUTOMATIC JEEP RUBICON 2016 UNLIMITED. IT DIED DURING MOTION AFTER SHIFTING TO REVERSE FROM DRIVE. I WAS DOING A SHARP TURN WHERE I NEEDED TO GO BACK IMMEDIATELY AND JUST WHEN I SHIFT REVERSE (DURING PRESSING THE BRAKES LIKE NORMALLY EVERYBODY DOES) IT SHUT DOWN. THEN, I PUT IN PARK AND STARTED IT AGAIN AND IT DIDN'T RECOGNIZE THE REVERSE (IDLING BUT NOT MOVING). I HAD TO PUT IT OFF (AFTER SHIFTING TO PARK) AND START IT AGAIN. AT THE SECOND TIME IT RECOGNIZED REVERSE AND WORKED FINE FOR NOW. NO CODES DURING THE INCIDENT. MY CASE IS SIMILAR TO THE COMPLAINT: NHTSA ID NUMBER: 10850113.

MY JEEP WAS BOUGHT BRAND NEW LESS THAN A MONTH AGO AND WHEN I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE OR PRESS THE BRAKES THERE'S A NOISE. ITS NOT THE SAME NOISE THAT THE CAR WOULD MAKE IF THE BRAKES WHERE BAD. I BROUGHT MY CAR BACK TO THE DEALER THAT I GOT IT FROM AND THEY SAID ALL JEEPS DO THAT WHICH DOESN'T MAKE ANY SENSE.

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IN MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED GOING DOWN A STRAIGHT STRETCH OF ROAD AT 45MPH ON A SUNNY DAY. THE TRACTION CONTROL SUDDENLY KICKED ON AND APPLIED THE BRAKES ONLY ON ONE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND TRIED TO PULL ME INTO THE CAR IN THE NEXT LANE TO MY RIGHT. DEALER COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG.

WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION'S SHIFT LEVER BECAME LOOSE MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR. THE LEVER WOULD ROTATE 360 DEGREES AROUND ITS CENTER AND EVENTUALLY COME COMPLETELY OFF OF ITS MOUNT. WHEN ROTATED, THE OFFSET IN THE SHIFT LEVER BEING AT A NEW ANGLE WOULD LEAD TO SHIFTING BEING OBSTRUCTED BY THE DRIVER OR PASSENGER'S LEGS AND SEATS. AFTER COMING OFF OF ITS MOUNT WHILE STATIONARY GEAR SELECTION BECAME IMPOSSIBLE WITHOUT REPAIR. DEALER WOULD EVENTUALLY COMPLETE A REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. ITEMS NOTED ON THE SERVICE ORDER: LEVER: 52060064AG, SCREW: 6506668AA, PCM UPDATE FLASHED

MANUAL GEAR LEVER SPINS MAKING THE VEHICLE IMPOSSIBLE TO SHIFT. HAPPENED OVERNIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO SHIFT TO FOURTH, FIFTH OR SIXTH GEAR. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT VEHICLE ALSO FAILED TO SHIFT THE REVERSE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SHIFTER ASSEMBLY WAS FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.

THE CONNECTION OF THE GEAR SHIFTER TO THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION BREAKS, LEAVING YOU STUCK IN WHATEVER GEAR IT WAS LAST IN, AND BASICALLY STRANDED. I PERSONALLY WAS IN A PARKING GARAGE WHEN IT OCCURED, OTHERS HAVE BEEN ON AND OFF ALL KINDS OF ROADS.

I RENTED A JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED THROUGH ALAMO IN PUERTO RICO FOR 2 WEEKS. ON 5 OCCASIONS WHILE MY FOOT DEPRESSED THE BRAKE WITH FORCE, THE CAR SURGED FORWARD. MY FOOT WAS ONLY ON THE BRAKE. IN EACH INSTANCE, I WAS FORCED TO THROW THE CAR INTO PARK TO PREVENT THE VEHICLE FROM SURGING FORWARD. THIS CREATED A DANGEROUS CONDITION IN 3 INSTANCES, 2 WHERE I MIGHT HAVE HIT LARGER VEHICLES (ONE A FORESTRY TRUCK, ANOTHER A LARGE BOX TRUCK) ON NARROW MOUNTAIN ROADS, 1 WHERE I WAS AT THE EDGE OF PARKING PAD THAT WOULD HAVE RESULTED IN THE JEEP GOING DOWN A STEEP MOUNTAIN RAVINE.

2016 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RHD. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND TRACTION LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING. RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND TRACTION WENT OFF. CHECK ENGINE WENT OFF LATER THAT DAY, BUT CAME BACK ON. TRACTION WAS INTERMITTENT, BUT WOULD TURN OFF WHEN RESTARTED. NEXT DAY, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND TRACTION CAME ON AND TWICE WHILE MOVING THE ENGINE DIED. I LOST TOTAL CONTROL OF VEHICLE, BUT WAS GOING SLOW AT THE TIME. ONCE ON A CURVE AND THE OTHER TIME WHILE TURNING. SECOND TIME WAS TOWARD A DEEP DITCH, BUT STOPPED SHORT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. QUALITY MOTORS TRIED TO FIX ONCE. WILL TAKE BACK TOMORROW WHEN THEY COULD FIT IT IN.

HORN DOES NOT HONK WHEN DEPRESSED OR THERE MAY BE A DELAY TIL THE HORN ACTUALLY SOUNDS. AT TIMES IT DOES NOT EVEN HONK AT ALL. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE. PLEASE ADDRESS. THIS OCCURS WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR MOVING. HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME. I HAVE CHECKED ON FORUMS AND EVERYONE HAS THE SAME ISSUE.

2016 JEEP WRANGLER. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ON DASHBOARD, ENGINE NOISES AND NO ACCELERATION WHEN GAS PEDAL IS DEPRESSED ISSUES. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN HER HUSBAND DROVE THE VEHICLE, THE ENGINE LIGHT DID NOT ILLUMINATE. HOWEVER HE DID HAVE TO PUSH THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL MORE THAN USUAL. TWO WEEKS LATER, WHILE DRIVING AT A SPEED OF 40-45 MPH, THE CONSUMER HEARD A LOUD NOISE AND NOTICED THE RPM WAS AT 5,000 AND GOING TO 6,000. THE VEHICLE WAS SHAKING AND THE ENGINE WAS MAKING LOUD GRINDING NOISES. THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. THEY STATED THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE. TWO WEEKS LATER, AS BEFORE, THE ENGINE BECAME LOUD, THE RPM WENT TO 5,000 AND FOR THE SECOND TIME, THE NUMBER 1 SURROUNDED BY A SQUARE LIT UP ON THE DASH BOARD AFTER THE LETTER D. THE VEHICLE ONLY REACHED A SPEED OF 10-15 MPH. *JB

MY SON CAME HOME FROM SCHOOL TO GET HIS WALLET TO GO FILL UP HIS JEEP WHEN HE CAME OUT BACK OUTSIDE THE FRONT OF HIS JEEP WAS SMOKING, WHEN HE OPENED THE HOOD HE FOUND THE RADIATOR FAN ON FIRE. HE QUICKLY RAN AND GOT THE HOSE AND PUT OUT THE FIRE BUT IT CONTINUED TO SMOKE FOR ABOUT 5 MINS. THE JEEP WAS RUNNING PARKED IN THE DRIVEWAY THE JEEP ONLY HAS ABOUT 4000 MILES ON IT THE AIR-CONDITIONING WAS ON. HE ONLY DROVE IT FROM SCHOOL ABOUT 1 MILE AWAY. WE HAVE NOT TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER YET. THE FANS CURRENTLY ARE NOT WORKING THE REST OF THE VEHICLE SEEMS TO BE FINE. I HAVE PICTURE AND A VIDEO I CAN TRY TO UP LOAD.
