2016 Jeep Wrangler complaints

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.
