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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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!

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.
