2016 Jeep Wrangler complaints

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. TH

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. AFTER STOPPING AT A LIGHT, THE LEFT REAR TIRE SIDEWALL EXPLODED FOR UNKNOWN REASON. TIRE COMPLETELY DEFLATED IN LESS THAN 15SEC. THE TIRE DID NOT CONTACT A CURB AND WAS NOT PUNCTURED BY A FOREIGN OBJECT.
