2014 Jeep Wrangler complaints

MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED IS CURRENTLY BEING SERVICED FOR A CRACKED OIL COOLER. THE OIL LEAK WAS FIRST NOTICED WHILE PARKED IN MY GARAGE. I HAD TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO A LOCAL SHOP AND THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A CRACKED OIL COOLER. I WAS ALSO TOLD I WAS LUCKY THERE WAS NO FIRE CAUSED AS THERE WAS SO MUCH OIL. I WAS TOLD IT SHOULD STILL BE UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE IS GETTING ITS NORMAL SERVICES NOW AND WILL BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER TOMORROW. I HAVE GOOGLED THIS PROBLEM AND THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE FOR THE 2014 JEEP WRANGLER.

NETS REFERENCE: #, CHRYSLER RECALL, PAW, TAPING SYSTEM. MY JEEP IS DOING EXACTLY WHAT THE PAW RECALL REFERS TO, THE PROBLEM IS THAT MY VINE. # IS NOT AFFECTED BY THE RECALL, WHEN IN FACT IT SHOULD BE. THE TAPING LIGHT CAME ON WHEN ONE TIRE DROPPED TO 33 BECAUSE THE THRESHOLD WAS PROGRAMMED INCORRECTLY AT THE FACTORY. IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN SET LOWER, PROBABLY AROUND 30 ? I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER CORP. ABOUT THIS, BUT THEY WERE OF NO HELP. IS THERE ANY WAY THAT THE RANGE OF VINE. NUMBERS OF AFFECTED JEEPS COULD BE RE-EVALUATED, AS THIS IS CLEARLY AFFECTING MY JEEP? THANKS [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).? *JB *TR

WHEN ATTEMPTING TO BRAKE, THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP. THE BRAKE PEDAL STARTED PUMPING LIKE THE ABS SYSTEM KICKED IN. THE BRAKES WORKED AS EXPECTED MINUTES LATER (AFTER REAR ENDING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME).

RANDOMLY THE INSTRUMENT PANEL GAUGES WOULD GO CRAZY, THE "IDIOT" LIGHTS WOULD COME ON, AND IF THE CRUISE CONTROL IS ON, THAT WILL DISENGAGE. I'VE HAD OTHER INCIDENTS WHERE THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT HAVE ANY POWER WHEN THE KEY WAS ENGAGED, UNTIL 4 DIFFERENT TIMES OF TRYING IT. ALSO WHEN STARTING THE ENGINE, THE STARTER WOULD CONTINUE TO CRANK EVEN WITH THE KEY DISENGAGED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE STATIONARY, THE CONTACT SMELLED BURNING OIL AND NOTICED THAT OIL HAD LEAKED ONTO THE GROUND. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,000.

TRANSFER CASE REAR MAIN SEAL LEAK AS DIAGNOSED BY TWO DIFFERENT JEEP DEALERSHIPS (JEEP OF HOLLYWOOD AND MASSEY YARDLEY JEEP). I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN TWICE FOR REPAIR AND THE LEAK CONTINUES (02/24/2017 [HOLLYWOOD JEEP] AND 03/08/2017 [MASSEY YARDLEY]). THE CAR IS IN FOR REEVALUATION AND REPAIR AS I AM WRITING THIS MAKING IT THE THIRD TIME IN THREE WEEKS THE CAR IS BEING REPAIRED FOR THE SAME ISSUE (03/17/2017 [MASSEY YARDLEY]). THIS INVOLVES THE MOTOR OIL IN THE VEHICLE AND LEAKS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS IDLE OR BEING DRIVEN. ONCE THE WRANGLER IS DRIVEN THE THE OIL HEATS UP, AND THINS OUT, CAUSING THE OIL TO LEAK IN LARGER AMOUNTS AND FASTER. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE LEAKING OIL CAN START AN ENGINE FIRE OR TOO MUCH OIL LOST CAN CAUSE AN ENGINE TO BE DAMAGED OR EVEN SEIZE. JEEP CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS ISSUE AND THEIR "CASE MANAGEMENT" TEAM HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN ATTEMPTING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE, HOWEVER, TO-DATE ALL CUSTOMER SERVICE REPS INDICATE THERE IS NO RECALL OR INVESTIGATION INTO THESE ISSUES. AS AN ASIDE, THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BY THE ORIGINAL OWNER (PER CARFAX REPORT), FOR TRANSFER CASE RELATED ISSUES 11/18/2015. I IMPLORE NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AS THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE A LIFE THREATENING ISSUE.

ENGINE OIL COOLER HOUSING CRACKING AND LEAKING OIL. I HAVE HAD IT IN TWICE IN 3 MONTHS TO HAVE THE HOUSING REPLACED. I KNOW OF OTHERS WITH THIS YEAR, 2014, JEEP WRANGLER THAT HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. YOU CAN SMELL THE OIL ON THE EXHAUST AND SEE THE OIL DRIPPING UNDER THE VEHICLE. I HAVE THE DEALER REPAIR ORDERS AND PARTS REPLACED AND THEY ARE THE SAME BOTH TIMES. NOW, WORRIED IT WILL CONTINUE TO HAPPEN EVEN AFTER MY WARRANTY RUNS OUT AND WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS. JEEP SHOULD EXTEND THE WARRANTY AS LONG AS I OWN IT OR PERMANENTLY FIX THE COOLER PROBLEM ON THESE MODELS.

NOTICED POOL OF OIL UNDER MY JEEP AND UPON CLOSER INSPECTION OBSERVED OIL DRIPPING FROM BACK SIDE OF ENGINE ONTO THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. IT APPEARS THE LEAK IS COMING FROM THE OIL FILTER HOUSING, AS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON FAILURE ON THIS MODEL. UPON CONTACTING THE DEALER ABOUT THE PART, I WAS TOLD THERE IS A NATION-WIDE BACKORDER OF ABOUT 10,000 PARTS.

ON 2/20/17 WE BROUGHT OUR JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED TO JEEP DEALER IN DELRAY BEACH FLORIDA SCHUMACHER BECAUSE WE FOUND RUST ON THE FRONT AND PASSENGER SEAT FRAME HINGES. THE SEAT HINGES HAVE BARE STEEL SHOWING SIGNS OF RUST WHICH COULD BE A POTENTIAL SAFETY DEFECT . THE VEHICLE IS STILL WITHIN 3 YEAR WARRANTY. SERVICE CALLED JEEP AREA MANAGER (FIAT CHRYSLER) JOSE? WHO SAID REPAIRS ARE NOT COVERED. WE SPOKE TO A PERSON NAMED JOY ON THE PHONE AT FIAT CHRYSLER WHO SAID THAT FIAT CHRYSLER JEEP STAND BEHIND THEIR AREA MANAGER. WE ASKED TO HAVE A COPY OF THE AREA MANAGER REPORT SENT TO US, SHE SAID THEY WON'T SEND IT TO US. BASED ON THE ATTACHED PICTURES, WE CANNOT TELL WHERE THIS IS A COSMETIC PROBLEM OR IF THE RUST WILL EAT THROUGH THE METAL AND CAUSE STRUCTURAL DETERIORATION WHICH COULD BE HAZARDOUS IN A COLLISION. WE WOULD LIKE YOU INVESTIGATE FOR POSSIBLE SAFETY HAZARD

TIRE PRESSURE MONITORING SYSTEM HAS FAILED.VEHICLE WAS ORIGINALLY SOLD IN CANADA. LOCAL FORD DEALER SOLD AS/IS BUT WE WERE TOLD BY SALESMANAGER IT HAD REMAINDER OF FACTORY WARRANTY "2OR 3 MONTHS LEFT". VEHICLE HAS ONLY13000 MILES ON IT AND LOCAL JEEP DEALER WILL NOT FIX UNLESS I PAY ALL COST'

OIL COOLER LEAK. THEIR SHOULD BE A RECALL AS THIS CAN POTENTIAL CAUSE A FIRE AND EVERYWHERE I LOOK PEOPLE ARE FILING COMPLAINTS FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE ON 2014 JEEP WRANGLERS...

PURCHASED JEEP WRANGLER AS NEW FROM DEALER WITH 103 MILES ON IT. AT 36072 OIL WAS LEAKING ALL OVER THE TOP OF ENGINE AND DOWN THE TRANSMISSION. DEALERSHIP REPLACED OIL FILTER HOUSING/OIL COOLER. AFTER REPLACEMENT I LOOKED UP PART NUMBER USED AND IT WAS AN EARLIER REVISION THAN WHAT SHOULD HAVE USED. JEEP WAS REPAIRED ON 2/10/17, ON 2/18/17 JEEP WAS AGAIN LEAKING OIL FROM TOP OF ENGINE.

BRAKE ISSUES THE DAY I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT ON JAN 6TH 2017. I TOOK IT TO TUTTLE CLICK WHO I PURCHASED IT FROM AND THEY DIDN'T INSPECT THE VEHICLE I TOOK IT BACK AGAIN AND THEY INSPECTED IT AND FOUND THE BRAKE BOOSTER DAMAGED WHICH THEY ADVISED THEY REPAIRED. I AM STILL HAVING ISSUES ALONG WITH ADDITIONAL ISSUES AND AM CONCERNED. THIS IS A VEHICLE I PURCHASED FOR MY 16 YEAR OLD. PLEASE HELP THEY ARE REFUSING TO REPAIR OR SERVICE THE VEHICLE.

OIL LEAK BEING CAUSED FROM CRACKED OIL HOUSING/CASING/BELLHOUSE. SIMILAR ISSUE AMONGST A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF 2014 JEEP WRANGLERS

OIL FILLER/OIL COOLER LEAK

OIL COOLER HOUSING LEAKING OIL INTO THE VALLEY BETWEEN CYLINDER BANKS. OIL THEN RUNS OVER THE BELL HOUSING ONTO TRANSMISSION THEN ONTO EXHAUST CROSSOVER PIPE. LOOKS TO BE AN ENVIRONMENTAL AND FIRE ISSUE. STARTED LEAKING AT APPROX. 41000 MILES ON THE JEEP.

THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING HAS COOLANT RESIDUE ON IT AND IS CRACKED. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE JEEPS. THIS PART IS NOT A PART THAT CAN BE BROKEN THE ONLY REASON SOMETHING GOES WRONG WITH IT IS THAT IT IS DEFECTED. MOPAR SHOULD BE REPLACING THESE PARTS.

I PURCHASED A PRE OWNED CERTIFIED JEEP WRANGLER FROM TUTTLE CLICK IN TUSTIN CA AND THE SAME DAY I DROVE IT OFF THE LOT IT HAD BRAKE ISSUES. I HAD TO COME BACK TWICE TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM TO LOOK AT IT AND IT TURNED OUT THE BRAKE BOOSTER WAS NOT FUNCTIONING. I STILL HEAR NOISE FROM THE BRAKES.

MY JEEP HAS LESS THAN 21,000 MILES ON IT. I BROUGHT IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A COOLANT LEAK. THEY HAVEN'T FOUND THE COOLANT LEAK BUT THEY DID FIND AN OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL COOLER. THIS IS THE SECOND OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL COOLER. PARTS ARE ON BACK ORDER, I WAS TOLD THIS IS A FREQUENT AND COMMON PROBLEM. THEY HAVE NOT FOUND THE SOURCE OF MY COOLANT LEAK. THIS CAR IS GENTLY DRIVEN BY MY WIFE AND IS UNMODIFIED IN ANY WAY.

THE OIL COOLER UNDER THE INTAKE, THE JEEP HAS 68K MILES ON IT, NEEDS A THIRD OIL COOLER, THE DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO COVER THEM UNDER WARRANTY, THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE THE FIRST YEAR I BOUGHT THE JEEP BRAND NEW. EVERY TIME THEY CRACK, OUT OF THE BLUE, NO WARNING, THE DRIVER IS STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH SIX QUARTS OF OIL ALL OVER THE MOTOR, TRANS, EXHAUST AND GROUND.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF AN OIL LEAK EMITTING FROM THE OIL FILLER ASSEMBLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

LEAKS OIL FROM OIL COOLER HOUSING UNDER THE INTAKE MANIFOLD; OIL RUNS DOWN BACK OF ENGINE; NOTED WITH EXCESSIVE TEMPERATURE CHANGES DUE TO WEATHER CONDITIONS; OIL COOLER HOUSING IS CRACKED

THE FLANGE BOLT BROKE IN MY STEERING COLUMN WHILE CHANGING TO THE LEFT LANE. THE STEERING WHEEL TURNED FREELY AND WAS DISCONNECTED TO THE FRONT TIRES. DAMAGE WAS ALSO DONE TO THE CLOCK SPRING AND IT HAD TO BE REPLACED. IF THIS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY I COULD HAVE INJURED MYSELF AND OTHERS!

MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER HAD THE OIL FILTER HOUSING FAIL AT 52000 MILES. IT LEAKED ENOUGH OIL WAS DRIPPING DOWN THE BACK OF THE ENGINE ONTO THE TRANSMISSION AND ON TO THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. IT DRIPPED WHETHER PARKED OF IN MOTION.

OIL FILTER ADAPTER, OIL COOLER, NOT SURE ON CORRECT TERMINOLOGY. PART NUMBER 68105583AA TO BE SPECIFIC. JUST GOT NORMAL MAINTENANCE AND MULTI POINT INSPECTION DONE AND 2 DAYS, 128 MILES LATER SMOKE STARTED GUSHING OUT FROM UNDER MY VEHICLE. I WAS DRIVING TO GET LUNCH, GOT OUT AND SURE ENOUGH OIL WAS PROFUSELY LEAKING OUT OF THE BOTTOM. DROVE HOME IMMEDIATELY AND PARKED IT. HAD TO WAIT UNTIL MONDAY TO TRY AND DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. STARTED HER UP AND WITHIN 5 MINUTES HAD A PUDDLE THE SIZE OF A TIRE UNDERNEATH OF OIL. MANAGED TO GET HER TO THE DEALERSHIP WITHOUT ISSUE, BUT MY SYSTEM WAS TELLING ME I HAD 0% PILLS LIKE REMAINING. OIL HAD BEEN LEAKING OUT FROM ON TOP OF THE ENGINE WORRYING ME OF A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD BUT I MANAGED TO GET IT TO THE SHOP. APPARENTLY THIS PART IS NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THIS IS A WIDELY KNOWN ISSUE WITH 2014 MODELS SPECIFICALLY ALL CHRYSLER MADE VEHICLES WITH THIS ENGINE. $500 FIX IS NOT FUN WHEN IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE BY THE COMPANY WHO ON 2015 MODELS FIXED IT AND NEVER ADDRESSED OR WARNED 2014 MODEL OWNERS. *TR

ON 12/04/2016 I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT AROUND 80MPH WHEN A LOAD EXPLOSION STOPPED MY ENGINE. I IMMEDIATE STOPPED AS SMOKE STARTED TO COME INSIDE THE CABIN. AS SOON AS I EXITED THE VEHICLE I NOTICED A BIG FIRE UNDER THE CAR AND INSURE THE HOOD. I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE FIRE OUT USING 3 FIRE EXTINGUISHERS. THIS REALLY COULD'VE ESCALATED QUICKLY. I NOTICED A BIG HOLE ON THE SIDE OF THE ENGINE. LOOKS LIKE IT THREW A ROD SINCE THE OIL PRESSURE WAS LOW. PROBABLY DUE TO FAULTY OIL FILTER MOUNT. THE EXACT REASON FOR THE ENGINE FAILURE AND SUBSEQUENT FIRE HASN'T BEEN DETERMINED YET AS THE DEALER WILL OT LOOK AT IT UNTIL CHRYSLER SENDS AN INVESTIGATOR TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE. CHRYSLER WILL NOT SEND AN INVESTIGATOR AND IS ASKING FOR THE DEALER TO LOOK AT IT. IT'S BEEN OVER 10 DAYS AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. SO FAR, NEITHER PARTY HAS TAKEN THE ISSUE SERIOUSLY. THE CAR IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. *TR

I'VE NOTICED FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS LIKE LEAKAGE ON THE GROUND BUT HAVE YET TO PINPOINT THE EXACT LOCATION. I TOOK IT TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND ASKED IF THEY HAVE HAD ANY ISSUES WITH LEAKS AND DANCED AROUND THE QUESTION AND SAID I WOULD NEED TO LEAVE IT FOR A MECHANIC TO LOOK AT IT, I ASKED IF MY WARRANTY WAS STILL VALID AND THE HAD RAN MY VIN AND SAID IT WAS EXPIRED......WHICH IS PUZZLING CAUSE I HAVE AROUND 30K MILES ON IT. SO I STILL HAVE A MYSTERY LEAK AND READING UP ON DIFFERENT FORUMS SEEMS TO BE ON ONGOING ISSUES WITH COOLING OIL LINES OR OIL FILTER ADAPTER, OIL COOLER. *TR

ENGINE THREW A ROD WHILE DRIVING. VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE. *TR

3,6 OIL FILTER ADAPTER LEAKING. HAVE 38,000 ON VEHICLE, GOT OIL CHANGED ON MONDAY EVENING AND WEDNESDAY MORNING NOTICED A BURNED OIL SMELL AND A CLOUD OF SMOKE OFF MOTOR AFTER SHORT DRIVE TO WORK. HAVE OIL SLICK UNDERNEATH VEHICLE WHEN CAME OUT THAT AFTERNOON. WENT DIRECTLY BACK TO DEALERSHIP, AND THEY ADVISED THAT THEY HAD DONE NOTHING WRONG , BUT WAS A BAD OIL FILTER ADAPTER. I SEE A LOT OF THEM APPEAR TO FAIL, BUT THE TIMING IS SUSPECT. HAS THE REPLACEMENT PART BEEN UPGRADED TO PREVENT FUTURE FAILURES?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED TOO EASILY WHEN STRUCK BY OBJECTS WHILE DRIVING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE WINDSHIELD NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.

THE ADHESIVE LAYER BETWEEN THE TWO LAYERS OF GLASS ON THE FRONT WINDSHIELD HAS NUMEROUS CRYSTALS THAT REFRACT THE LIGHT. THIS IS INTERFERING WITH VISIBILITY DURING LOW LIGHT SITUATIONS, ILLUMINATION BY HEADLIGHTS, OR WITH LOW ANGLE LIGHT FROM MULTIPLE SOURCES INCLUDING SUNRISE AND SUNSET.

FOR MONTHS I SMELLED ANTIFREEZE FROM THE FRONT OF THE JEEP BUT THERE WERE NO LEAKS . AFTER A MONTH I FOUND DRIED ANTIFREEZE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE RADIATOR PASSENGER SIDE . THE JEEP WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS REPAIRED BY DEALER . MY FRIEND ALSO WITH A NEW 2014 WRANGLER ALSO HAD SAME PROBLEM . THANK YOU JOEY

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH THE STEERING WHEEL STARTED TO SHUTTER THEN LOCKED UP CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO VIOLENTLY SWERVE TO THE RIGHT. THE STEERING WHEEL WAS LOCKED AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO WRAP AROUND A LIGHT POLE. BOTH FRONT AIRBAGS DEPLOYED. ...UPDATED 04/11/17 *BF SEE PICTURES ATTACHED *TR UPDATED 08/11/2017*JS

I HAVE A WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED 2014. AROUND 48,000 MILES I SMELLED BURNING OIL AN NOTICED OIL LEAKING UNDER THE CARRIAGE WHEN THE CAR WAS PARKED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INDICATED THAT THE OIL COOLER WAS LEAKING. THE ENGINE WAS FILLED WITH OIL. THEY REPLACED THE OIL COOLER AND ADAPTER. THIS IS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. I HOPE JEEP REPLACED THE DAMAGED PART WITHONE THAT WILL PREVENT THE PROBLEM FROM REOCCURRING.

BURNING SMELL FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS, TOOK IT IN AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE MY OIL COOLER. ENGINE WAS FILLED WITH OIL AND IT WAS A MAJOR LEAK FROM THE BACK. PART #68105583-AE WAS PUT IN IT'S PLACE AND I HAVE A SNEAKING SUSPICION IT WAS PART #68105583-AA THAT WAS BROKEN SINCE IT WAS MADE OUT OF PLASTIC! MY JEEP HAS 32K MILES, AND IS UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THIS IS TOO MUCH! RECALL PLEASE!

I RECENTLY STARTING TO SMELL BURNING OIL IN MY JEEP. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT, AND FIGURED THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A MINOR SPILL OR THE OLD OIL WAS BURNING OFF AFTER MY RECENT OIL CHANGE. BUT AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS, THE SMELL REMAINED AND I NOTICED AN OIL STAIN WHERE I PARK THIS JEEP IN MY DRIVEWAY. I THEN THOUGHT THAT MAYBE MY MECHANIC FAILED TO PROPERLY INSTALL MY OIL FILTER AFTER THE LAST OIL CHANGE. BUT TURNS OUT, THE OIL FILTER HOUSING WAS LEAKING OIL. THIS IS POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS AND NOW HAS TO BE REPLACED. AND FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, THIS PART IS MADE FROM PLASTIC AND HAS CAUSED MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS SPECIFIC MODEL YEAR. MY SISTER, WHO HAS THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL ALSO HAD TO HAVE HERS REPLACED. I ONLY HAVE 50K HIGHWAY MILES ON THIS VEHICLE. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE REPLACEMENT PART HAS A DIFFERENT PART NUMBER, SO JEEP MAY HAVE MADE A MODIFICATION TO THE PART. I HOPE SO!

WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE, WHICH WAS 3 DAYS NEW TO US, EXHIBITED THE CLASSIC JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. THE VEHICLE STARTED TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE FROM SIDE TO SIDE AND ONLY STOPPED ONCE THE BRAKE WAS ACTIVATED. THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES BEFORE THE ALIGNMENT WAS RIGHTED AND A PART REPLACED.

2014 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON 3.6. OIL FILTER ADAPTER LEAKING OIL. VEHICLE HAS LESS THEN 20 THOUSAND MILES ON IT. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. TOOK IT IN TWO DAYS AGO SHOWED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT PICTURES OF THE OIL ON MY GARAGE FLOOR. AFTER READING CONSUMER COMPLAINTS (2014 JEEP WRANGLER 3.6) I TOLD THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO LOOK AT THE OIL FILTER ADAPTER. SERVICE DEPARTMENT CALLED ME THE NEXT DAY AND SAID " YOU HAVE A OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL FILTER ADAPTER". IS THIS GOING TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM? WILL I HAVE TO REPLACE THIS PART EVERY 20 THOUSAND MILES? I REACHED OUT TO CHRYSLER TWICE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE GOTTEN KNOW RESPONSE. I FEEL THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR AND ENGINE FIRE IF CHRYSLER DOES NOT COME UP WITH A PERMANENT FIX.

THE STEERING WHEEL HAS A 2" PLAY AND IS CAUSING ME TO COMPENSATE ON EVERY DRIVE NOW. THIS HAS STARTED APPROXIMATLY 10,000 MILE PREVIOUS, BUT HAS INCREASED STEADILY OVER THE PAST FEW MONTHS. I'M TOLD I NEED A NEW STEERING GEAR BOX INSTALLED.

WHEN PUMPING GAS, THE FILL TANK WILL FILL UP AND OVERFLOW, CAUSING GAS TO SPILL OUT ALL OVER THE VEHICLE. THE HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR THE LAST 60,000 MILES. EVERY OTHER JEEP MODEL HAS HAD THIS FUEL FILTER RECALLED, EXCEPT THE NEWER WRANGLER. GAS PUMPING TAKE OVER 10 MINUTES TO FILL OVERTIME. WHEN TAKEN TO THE DEALER, THEY CHARGED ME $90 TO TELL ME THE FILTER NEED REPLACING AND WOULD LIKE ANOTHER $89 TO DO SO.

HAD MY OIL CHANGED AND SHORTLY AFTER SMELLED BURNING OIL. DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT, FIGURED THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A MINOR SPILL OR THE OLD OIL WAS BURNING OFF. AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS, THE SMELL REMAINED AND I NOTICED AN OIL STAIN WHERE I PARKED MY CAR. THOUGHT THEY FORGOT TO PUT THE SCREW BACK IN BUT TURNS OUT, THE OIL FILTER HOUSING WAS LEAKING OIL. THIS IS POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS AND NOW HAS TO BE REPLACED. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, THIS PART IS MADE FROM PLASTIC AND HAS CAUSED MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS SPECIFIC MODEL YEAR. A FRIEND OF MINE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE HIS. ONLY HAVE 30K MILES ON THE VEHICLE SO MAKE SURE THAT WHEN YOU GET YOUR OIL CHANGED, WHOEVER IS SERVICING THE VEHICLE DOES NOT TIGHTEN DOWN THE FILTER TOO MUCH BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE THE PLASTIC PART TO CRACK. LOOKS LIKE THE REPLACEMENT PART HAS A DIFFERENT NUMBER SO JEEP MAY HAVE MADE A MODIFICATION TO THE PART.

CLOCK SPRING BROKEN WITH NO PERTINENT DAMAGE TO VEHICLE OR PERTINENT EVENTS, WOKE UP ONE MORNING AND THE ENTIRE STEELING COLUMN DIDN'T WORK ELECTRICALLY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CRUISE CONTROL FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CLOCK SPRING NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE WAS 51,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

DID OIL AND FILTER CHANGE AT THE DEALERSHIP. I GOT ON THE FREEWAY AND LOOKED AT MY REAR WINDOW WHEN I SAW SMOKE. DID NOT THINK OF IT MUCH SINCE I FIGURED ITS THE OLD OIL BURNING. DROVE FOR A GOOD 2-3 MILES AND IT WAS GETTING WORSE. PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE AND A LOT OF SMOKE GOT INSIDE THE VEHICLE. GOT OUT AND THE OIL WAS DRAINING OVER THE MUFFLER, TRANSMISSION COVER THAT WAS CAUSING THE SMOKE. I THOUGHT THEY FORGOT TO PUT THE SCREW BACK ON OR THE OIL FILTER LOOSE. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND CALLED A TOW TRUCK. ONCE AT THE DEALERSHIP, WAS TOLD BY THE TECH THAT IT MIGHT OF BEEN THE OIL COOLER THAT WAS DRAINING OR GOT CRACKED, HE SAID THAT THIS IS PRETTY COMMON. I CHECKED ONLINE FOR RECALLS BUT DID NOT FIND ANY BUT I DID NOTICE A LOT OF JEEP FORUMS ONLINE THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL YR. THIS COULD BE A FIRE HAZARD WITH ALL THAT OIL DRAINING ON THE MUFFLER AND THE ENGINE. BAD DESIGN OVERALL! I EVEN KNOW THAT, IT DOESN'T TAKE A GENIUS TO FIGURE THAT OUT, ITS COMMON SENSE. MAKING PARKS WITH PLASTIC PIPES? BY THE ENGINE AND IN A HOT AREA? IT MIGHT BE TO SAVE MONEY IN PARTS BUT I AM PAYING ON A $40000 JEEP. GOT THE PART 68105583AA REPLACED WITH 68105583AE. HOPEFULLY THIS GOT MOTIFIED.

UNKNOWN REASON: MY JEEP WAS SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY WHILE I WAS AT WORK AND CAUGHT FIRE. THIS FIRE FROM THE JEEP CAUGHT MY HOUSE ON FIRE AS WELL. MY NEIGHBOR HEARD A FEW EXPLOSIONS AND WENT OUTSIDE TO SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON. HE TOOK THE ATTACHED PICTURE AFTER HE CALLED THE FIRE DEPARTMENT. WE ARE WAITING FOR THE INSURANCE ADJUSTER TO COME OUT TO SEE THE DAMAGE.

CLOCKSPRING RECALL (NHTSA RECALL # 16V-288) ( MANUF RECALL # S40) AFFECTS NOT ONLY THE AIRBAG BUT.. ALSO....."CAUSES A NON WORKING HORN". NO HORN IS A SAFETY HAZARD BY NOT HAVING IT WORKING AT ANY TIME WHILE OPERATING (STOPPED OR DRIVING) THE JEEP. JEEP DEALERS HAVE "NO" EST OF WHEN REPAIR PART WILL BE AVAILABLE???? ""NOT ACCEPTABLE ON THE PART OF JEEP/CHRYSLER!!!!!''' THE CONSUMER STATED THE STEERING WHEEL WIRES, ENGINE ROCKERS, FRONT U JOINTS, ENGINE HARNESS AND FUEL INJECTOR HARNESS, FRONT DRIVE SHAFT ADN SUSPENSION ALL FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE LOST STEERING WHILE DRIVING. THE FRONT AXLE ASSEMBLY BRACKET HAD BROKEN.

THE OIL FILTER CANISTER #68105583AA CRACKED BLEEDING OIL PROFUSELY.

ACCELERATING INTO A HIGHWAY THE GAS PEDAL GOT STUCK I HAD TO PULL IT UP WITH MY FOOT

THE AIRBAG INDICATOR LIGHT CYCLES ON AND OFF AT VARIOUS TIMES. THERE DOESN'T SEEM TO BE ANY SPECIFIC FACTORS. IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IDLING IN PARK, TURNING EITHER DIRECTION, OR DRIVING IN A STRAIGHT LINE AT RANDOM SPEEDS.

I PURCHASED MY JEEP WRANGLER SPORT 2014 WITH LESS THAN 9000 MILES ON IT, DROVE FROM FL TO CO TWICE. SECOND TIME I GOT TO CO, CAR STARTED LEAKING OIL AND HASN'T STOPPED SINCE (6+ MONTHS). ALSO, WHEN I ACCELERATE SOMETHING SMELLS LIKE IT'S BURNING. OIL LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF.
