2018 Jeep Wrangler complaints

Coming back from a mini vacation we stopped at a gas station to refuel. Could smell something burning but was not sure from where it was coming from. 45 minutes later we hard a loud pop and rpm’s went up. Clutch went completely out. Was barely able to pull it off the highway and into a gas station. Had to cut cars off due to not being able to put the jeep in gear to get rolling again. I’m three hours away from my home. Had just took the jeep to the dealer for service and was told EVERYTHING LOOKED GOOD. No issues with the clutch or anything along the lines of that. EXTREMELY upset. This need to be resolved ASAP. Broke down at 7:10pm wasn’t able to get a tow truck to me until 10:30pm

Coolant reservoir cracked to allow coolant to leak at 5800 miles.

The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Wrangler. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 21V028000 (Power Train) and an unknown campaign number. The contact was informed that the part for the second recall was not available and the dealer suggested that the vehicle remain at the dealer until the part became available. The contact stated after 30 days the vehicle was returned with both recalls completed. The contact stated on May 20,2021 while driving 80 mph, the vehicle experienced the death wobble. The contact stated there was no warning light illuminated. The contact took the vehicle to the local dealer however, the mechanic was unable to diagnose the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The contact stated that he had taken the vehicle to the dealer a total of five times however, the failure persisted. The manufacturer was informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 41,000.

The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel vibrated abnormally, requiring added effort to keep the vehicle driving in a straight line. There was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer to be diagnosed. The contact was informed that the front track bar bracket needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was informed of the failure and referred the contact back to the dealer. The failure mileage was approximately 14,000.

While my vehicle is being repaired for steering issues I was given a loaner vehicle which is a 2020 JLU Sport. Driving the vehicle went to put down the driver-side visor to block the sun. When I did that the visor fell out of the arm. I had to act quickly to move the visor from obstructing my vision of the roadway. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! The few seconds it took to move the visor so I could see the road could have resulted in an accident had there been more traffic on the roadway. This is not considered a powertrain issue so therefore it is not covered by Jeep. My vehicle has the same issue. After some research, there are a lot of other vehicles affected by this. Faulty equipment manufactured by Jeep. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL PROCESSED ON THIS ISSUE.

My Jeeps steering wheel locked up while driving. It felt like the power steering lost all power. Also, multiple warning lights started to display and the speedometer stopped working.

Driving on the highway at 65 mph, getting of the highway onto an exit at @35 mph steering wheel completely lock and ABS ligh ame on . Was able to pull to the side cool car then drive . Two weeks prior the whole console stacwas replace because of the same problem.

AXLE SYSTEM ISSUE. DEALERSHIPS ARE REPLACING COMPLETE AXLE FOR JUST A SENSOR AND THEY TAKE THE CAR A MONTH TO DO IT. COMMON ISSUE ON ALL JEEPS. JUST GOOGLE SERVICE AXLE SYSTEM.

Strong oder of exhaust when accelerating at high way speeds. The smell lingers in the cab of the Jeep until I open a window. Is strong enough to also smell while the top is down. Has been an on going issue.

WHILE DRIVING THE LOCKER SYSTEM LIGHT WILL DING AND LIGHT WILL ILLUMINATE. HAVE HAD IT AT A DEALERSHIP 5 TIMES APPROXIMATELY FOR THIS ISSUE. LOCKER SYSTEM WILL NOT WORK BUT I FEAR IT WILL ENGAGE WHILE DRIVING SINCE THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW TO FIX IT. I HAVE HAD THE ENTIRE AXLE REPLACED AS WELL AS THE DRIVE TRAIN CONTROL MODULE. I HAVE NO IDEA WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO FIX IT AT THIS POINT BUT WHEN THE ENGINEER SAYS IT NEEDS TO BE ADJUSTED AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS NO IDEA WHAT THEY MEAN BY THAT SINCE IT IS NOT A SERVICEABLE PART OF THE AXLE. IT IS BUILT INTO THE AXLE ITSELF HENCE THE AXLE REPLACEMENT. THE FORUM FOR THE JL WRANGLER THERE ARE A MULTITUDE OF PROBLEMS WITH THE AXLE/LOCKER SYSTEM THAT JEEP CANNOT FIGURE OUT AND IT'S BEEN OVER 2 YEARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 21V028000 (POWER TRAIN) HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE RECALL REPAIR WAS NOT YET AVAILABLE. JACKSONVILLE CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM WESTSIDE LOCATED AT 7030 COMMONWEALTH AVE, JACKSONVILLE, FL 32220, (904) 438-3500) WAS CONTACTED AND MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER HAD EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRM PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

Y07/NHTSA 21V-028 THE REPAIR JEEP HAS PROPOSED IS A SOFTWARE UPDATE WHICH WILL REDUCE AVAILABLE POWER. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE. JEEP NEEDS TO UPGRADE THE CLUTCH/PRESSURE PLATE TO HANDLE THE LOADS THAT THE ENGINE IMPOSES ON IT. A SOFTWARE CHANGE IS NONSENSE. THANK YOU

UCONNECT INFOTAINMENT SYSTEM FREQUENT FREEZES AND REBOOTS, AND THIS AFFECTS THE BACKUP CAMERA DISPLAY. SOMETIMES THE BACKUP CAMERA GUIDELINES DISAPPEAR, SOMETIMES THE BACKUP CAMERA DISPLAY SHOWS A BLUE SCREEN OF DEATH, SOMETIMES IT DOESN'T TURN ON WHEN SHIFTING TO REVERSE, AND SOMETIMES THE UNIT REBOOTS ITSELF OR FREEZES. THE REBOOTS AND FREEZES HAPPEN WHILE IN MOTION AND ARE VERY DISTRACTING.

REAR LOCKER/AXLE FAULTY. NOW ON MY 2ND TIME NEEDING REAR LOCKER/AXLE REPELACED. VEHICLE STARTED THROWING CODES IN RAINY WEATHER.

I RECEIVED A LETTER STATING THERE WAS A RECALL ON THE CLUTCH. ABOUT A MONTH LATER I WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN I WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT, THERE WAS A CLOUD OF SMOKE BEHIND MY JEEP. I WAS ONLY A FEW MILES FROM HOME SO VERY SLOWLY I GOT THERE. AND THERE WAS ALSO A BURNT SMELL. MY JEEP HAS BEEN AT THE DEALERS SINCE MARCH 18. TODAY THEY SAID THAT IT WAS NOT DUE TO THE CLUTCH RECALL AND I WOULD BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THE REPAIRS. THIS IS MY 3RD MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLE AND I DO NOT BEAT ON THEM. I KNOW HOW TO DRIVE A MANUAL VEHICLE. THE WHOLE TIME THE SERVICE MANAGER HAS BEEN TELLING ME HE BELIEVES IT WAS DUE TO THE RECALL. APPARENTLY SOMEONE FROM FCA MADE THE DECISION THAT IT WAS NOT.

I PURCHASED THE JEEP WRANGLER AS THE FIRST OWNER IN 2018. I IMMEDIATELY FELT INCONSISTENCIES WITH THE STEERING. THE STEERING FELT LOOSE. AT THE TIME I EXPRESSED MY CONCERN TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT I PURCHASED THE JEEP FROM, I WAS TOLD THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY JEEP FOR THE 'DEATH WOBBLE' AND THAT IT WAS LIKELY THE RESULT OF THAT. THE RECALL WORK WAS COMPLETED WITHIN THE FIRST 12 MONTHS OF PURCHASE. THE RECALL REPAIR DID NOT RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THE STEERING CONTINUED TO FEEL LOOSE AND AS TIME WENT ON BECAME MORE EVIDENT. WHEN DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY ONTO AN EXIT AT 40-50MPH I FOLLOWED THE SLIGHT CURVE AND THE STEERING FELT UNSTABLE AND WANDERED. THE BEST WAY TO DESCRIBE WHAT OCCURRED WOULD BE THAT IT FELT LIKE THE FRAME WAS FALLING OFF THE WHEELS. THIS CONTINUED MORE FREQUENTLY AND LAST WEEK BECAME UNMANAGEABLE. WHILE DRIVING 70MPH DOWN THE EXPRESSWAY, I WAS UNABLE TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. IT FELT LIKE I WAS DRIVING A BOAT ON WATER. I FELT CONFIDENT THAT THE FRAME OF THE JEEP WAS LEAVING THE WHEELS. AT THIS TIME I NOTICED THAT THE GEARS WERE SLIPPING AS WELL. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO HAVE MY TRANSMISSION EXAMINED. THE EARLIEST AVAILABLE APPOINTMENT IS 6 DAYS OUT, SO I DECIDED TO SNEAK UNDER THE JEEP TO SEE IF THERE WAS A TRANSMISSION LEAK. WHAT I OBSERVED WAS SHOCKING TO FIND ON A 2018 VEHICLE AND CONSIDERABLY OVERWHELMING. MY DEGREE IS CRIMINAL SCIENCE, SO FAR FROM HAVING ANY AUTOMATIVE/ENGINEERING EXPERIENCE AND KNOWLEDGE, BUT CONTEXTUAL CLUES ARE EVIDENTIARY C

POOR QUALITY WELDS ON THE WHOLE FRAME OF MY JEEP. NOT ONLY THAT BUT IT IS A 2 YEAR VEHICLE THAT IS RUSTING AWAY. CALIFORNIA VEHICLE KEEP IN MIND SO RUST SHOULD BE VERY MINIMAL. ALSO THE 5' UCONNECT RADIO FREEZES OFTEN AND SHUTS ON AND OFF.

WHEN TRAVELING AT 70MPH+, CERTAIN BUMPS WILL CAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE WHEEL IS IMPOSSIBLE TO HOLD ON TO. YOU HAVE TO SHOW DOWN TO AROUND 50MPH TO GET THE SHAKE TO GO AWAY. IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND ALTHOUGH I EXPLAINED IT HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES, THEY SAID THEY WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE IT AND THEREFORE UNABLE TO MAKE ANY REPAIRS

JEEP DEVELOPED A VERY SEVERE WOBBLE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AFTER HITTING A SMALL BUMP FRONT TIRES WOBBLING BADLY VEHICLE ONLY HAS 39.000 MILES ON IT. SLOW DOWN AND WOBBLE DISAPPEARS VERY DANGEROUS AND SCARY I BELIEVE THEY CALL IT THE (DEATH WOBBLE)

'SERVICE AXEL LOCKING SYSTEM' WARNINGS LIGHT ON DASH. OCCURRED ON HIGHWAY IN MOTION, DRIVING STRAIGHT FORWARD.

A FEW MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING MY CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED 2018 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SAHARA, I BEGAN EXPERIENCING REGULAR SHAKING EPISODES WHILE DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY. THE SHAKING STARTS AFTER DRIVING OVER A SMALL BUMP IN THE ROAD. AT FIRST I COULD GET THE SHAKING TO STOP BY SLOWING THE VEHICLE DOWN SOME, BUT THE PROBLEM QUICKLY PROGRESSED TO WHERE THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE SLOWED DOWN TO A COMPLETE STOP TO END THE SHAKING. THIS IS EXTREMELY UNSAFE TO HAVE HAPPEN ON THE FREEWAY, AND IS ESPECIALLY TERRIFYING TO TRY AND MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE WHEN THERE IS HEAVIER TRAFFIC ON THE ROAD. MY JEEP HAD FEWER THAN 18,000 MILES AND WAS IN SERVICE LESS THAN 2 YEARS PRIOR TO BEING BROUGHT INTO THE DEALERSHIP REPAIR SHOP. I HAVE SENT THE VEHICLE MANUFACTURER A LEMON LAW COMPLAINT LETTER VIA CERTIFIED MAIL AND FILED A COMPLAINT WITH MARYLAND'S CONSUMER PROTECTION DIVISION (ATTACHED). MY JEEP HAS BEEN AT THE REPAIR SHOP FOR 3 MONTHS ALREADY, AND I WAS RECENTLY NOTIFIED THAT THE NECESSARY REPAIR PART IS NOT EXPECTED TO BE AVAILABLE FOR ALMOST 3 MORE MONTHS.

WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE FOR THE FIRST TIME IN THE MORNING WHEN THE TEMP IS AT OR BELOW FREEZING FOR ABOUT THE FIRST 10-15 MINUTES OF DRIVING THE VEHICLE WILL NOT WANT TO TURN LEFT. IT FEELS LIKE IT IS BINDING UP AND YOU HAVE TO FORCE THE STEERING WHEEL TO THE LEFT BUT THEN IT WILL LET LOOSE AND SEND YOU TO THE LEFT WITH FORCE. THIS HAS CAUSED ME TO ALMOST WRECK SEVERAL TIMES. THANKFULLY I HAVE BEEN ABLE TO AVOID THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC BUT WORRY ONE TIME I WILL NOT. I WORRY FOR ANY PASSENGERS THAT MIGHT BE IN MY VEHICLE AND FOR MYSELF. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES BUT BY THE TIME I GET IT THERE IT IS EITHER TO WARM OUT OR NOT DOING THE PROBLEM BECAUSE I HAVE DRIVEN IT TO THEM. I ALSO CONTACTED THE JEEP CARES LINE AND ALL THEY WOULD TELL ME IS TAKE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. SO NO HELP THERE. I HAVE READ NUMEROUS POSTS ONLINE OF OTHER WRANGLER OWNERS HAVING THIS SAME ISSUE AND DEALERS HAVE REPLACED COMPONENTS AND FIXED THOSE ISSUES. BUT I CAN NOT SEEM TO GET ANY HELP WHEN I TAKE MINE IN. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING THAT JEEP KNOWS ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AS THERE IS A TSB OUT FOR IT BUT THEY WILL NOT FIX ANYTHING ON MINE BECAUSE THEY SAY THEY CANNOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM.

I OWN A 2108 JEEP WRANGLER JL WITH 32,100-MILES ON THE ODOMETER. ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS IN THE PAST MONTH, WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AT 60+ MPH, MY STEERING AND FRONT SUSPENSION HAS STARTED SHAKING IN A WILD, UNCONTROLLABLE MANNER, FORCING ME TO NEARLY BRING MY VEHICLE TO A STOP. THE SITUATION SEEMS TO BE INITIATED BY HITTING BUMPS AT HIGHWAY SPEED, WHICH TRIGGERS A RUN-AWAY, VIOLENT, HARMONIC SHAKING (NOT JUST VIBRATIONS). I HAD THE TIRES REBALANCED AND ALIGNMENT CHECKED, BUT THE SAME THING HAPPENED'THIS EXTREME SHAKING IS DEFINITELY NOT A TIRE ISSUE. I'M NOT ONLY CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY; BUT IF THIS CONTINUES, THE VIOLENT NATURE OF THIS SHAKING WILL MOST CERTAINLY DAMAGE OTHER COMPONENTS OF THE SUSPENSION OR STEERING.

EXPERIANCED A DEATH WOBBLE AT 50MPH ON I-25 WHICH CAUSED 100% LOSS OF CONTROL OF STEERING ALMOST HITTING CENTER BARRIER. TOOK TO AUTONATION BROADWAY (LITTLETON CO), WHILE DRIVING TO DEALERSHIP EXPERIENCED A DEATHWOBBLE AT 40-45 MPH. DEALERSHIP HAS HAD VEHICLE FOR ALMOST 3 MONTHS, NO LOANER OR OTHER HELP HAS BEEN PROVIDED. WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED SINCE IT HAS BEEN AT DEALERSHIP AND I'VE MADE 3 PAYMENTS (WILL BE 4 PAYMENTS IN 2 WEEKS). VEHICLE IS NOT FIXED, HOWEVER ON THE NHTSA RECALL CHECK IT SHOWS THE RECALL IS CLOSED AND THERE ARE NO OPEN RECALLS.

JEEP WENT INTO AUTONATION BROADWAY IN LITTLETON COLORADO ON JANUARY 8TH 2021. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN THERE UNREPAIRED SINCE DUE TO A RECALL FOR A DEATH WOBBLE WHICH CAUSED LOSS OF CONTROL OF VEHICLE ON HIGHWAY CAUSING ME TO ALMOST HIT THE CENTER JERSEY BARRIER.. HOWEVER, WHEN LOOKING AT THE VIN ON NHTSA RECALL CHECK IT SHOWS THE RECALL HAS BEEN COMPLETED AND THERE ARE NO OPEN RECALLS. FCA ALSO STATES THAT THIS IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE BUT WILL NOT SAY OR PUT IN WRITING THAT THE VEHICLE IS SAFE TO DRIVE.

WHEN DRIVING VEHICLE AT 65-70 MPH IT STARTS SHACKING IF YOU HIT A POT HOLE OR A CRACK ON THE ROAD AND IT CONTINUES TO SHACK FOR ABOUT 5-6 MINS.

EXPERIENCED THE 'DEATH WOBBLE' ON 03/20/2021.

STEERING LOCKED UP MOMENTARILY AT 62 MPH DURING COLD WEATHER ( 38 DEGREES ) DRIVING.

CAR HAS BEEN IN SHOP MULTIPLE TIMES WITH MULTIPLE PARTS REPLACEMENTS TO CORRECT JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. STEERING WHEEL SHAKES VIOLENTLY AND DRIVER LOSES CONTROL OF STEERING WHEN CAR HITS BUMPS GOING OVER 55 MPH. REPLACEMENT OF STEERING DAMPNER AND TRACK BAR HAVE ONLY BEEN TEMPORARY FIXES AND THEN PROBLEM STARTS ALL OVER AGAIN. THE PROBLEM IS PARTICULARLY BAD IF YOU HIS A BUMP WHEN THERE IS SLIGHT CURVE IN THE ROAD. ALL SERVICE DOCUMENTATION IS UPLOADED BELOW. STEERING DAMPNER AND TIRE ROD HAVE BEEN REPLACED THREE TIMES SINCE 2019 AND IT IS CURRENTLY NOT WORKING AGAIN.

MY JEEP HAS A CLUTCH BURNING SMELL. THEY RECALLED IT LAST YEAR AND SAID PROBLEM FIXED. STILL HAVE BURNING CLUTCH SMELL AND NOW ANOTHER RECALL FOR THE SAME PROBLEM

WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY WIFE AND FIVE YR OLD SON WHEN WE HEARD A LOUD POP UNDERNEATH OUR 2018 JEEP WRANGLER AND INSTANTLY SAW A TRAIL OF SMOKE BEHIND US. WE IMMEDIATELY PULLED OVER TO FIND TRANSMISSION GUILD GUSHING FROM UNDERNEATH WITH TONS OF SMOKE AS WELL. WE WERE HOPING THE SMOKE WAS PROBABLY JUST FROM FLUID ON THE MANIFOLD BUT WE SMALL FLASHES OF FIRE STARTING AT THE TRANSMISSION AND CLUTCH AREA. I QUICKLY GRABBED MY SON SITTING IN BACK AND WE JUMPED OVER THE CONCRETE BARRIER ON THE SIDE AND RAN AWAY FROM THE JEEP AS IT QUICKLY BECAME ENGULFED. IT STILL HAD THE TEMP TAGS HAVING ONLY HAD IT THREE WEEKS. IT WAS A 2018 WITH 15K MILES.

IN COLDER TEMPS, AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, STEERING BECOMES EXTREMELY DIFFICULT. TOOK THIS TO FCA DEALER AND THEY WERE 'UNABLE TO RECREATE'... BASICALLY DIDN'T FIND RECALL, SO WON'T ATTEMPT TO FIX. THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT UNPREDICTABLY, THEN RE-ENGAGES UNPREDICTABLY. THIS IS GOING TO LEAD TO SOMEONE OVER-CORRECTING AT A HIGH SPEED.

DUE TO KNOWN FACTORY DEFECT OF POORLY SOLDERED REAR WINDOW DEFROSTER CABLE, THE BARELY SOLDERED END OF THAT CABLE STARTED PRODUCE A SMOKE WHEN TURNED THE DEFROSTER ON, AND FEW SECONDS LATER THE REAR TAILGATE WINDOW GLASS EXPLODED, SHATTERED IN PIECES WHILE DRIVING ON A FREEWAY.

STEERING WHEEL SHAKES BACK AND FORTH AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 35 MPH TO 80 MPH AFTER HITTING A ROUGH SPOT OR WASHBOARD IN THE ROAD. AT HIGHWAY SPEED IT HAPPENS MOSTLY WHEN HITTING BRIDGE EXPANSION JOINTS

AT 11K MILES THE JEEP BEGAN GOING INTO A DEATH WOBBLE WHEN DRIVING OVER SOMETHING AS SIMPLE AS A HOT TOP PATCH ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPX 60 - 65MPH. HAPPENS ON A WEEKLY BASIS NOW AND CAN ONLY BE STOPPED BY BRAKING SIGNIFICANTLY.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 71MPH, HIT A BUMP VEHICLE STARTED TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE. SLOWING DOWN DID NOT FIX THE ISSUE. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND STOP. VERY SCARY FEELING. BOTH BATTERIES DIED OUT AT APPROXIMATELY 39,000, FIRST THE MAIN BATTERY, THEN THE AUXILIARY BATTERY. NOISE COMING FROM BEHIND THE GLOVE BOX WHEN THE VEHICLE IS POWERED ON OR NOT. CLUNKING NOISE WHEN TAKING OFF FROM A STOP, OR FIRST TAKE OFF. (DEALER STATED IT WAS NORMAL (YEAH RIGHT)) PASSENGER VISOR BROKEN. HARDTOP LEAKING IN CENTER FRONT, CAUSING THE REARVIEW MIRROR TO RUIN. (HAS BEEN LOOKED AT BY THE DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES. AIR CONDITIONING WHEN DRIVING A LONG DISTANCE WILL SOMETIMES BLOW OUT HOT AIR ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. COOLANT DRAINED DYE PUT IN TO DETECT LEAKS, NO LEAKS. STILL HAPPENING FLOORBOARDS GET EXTREMELY HOT AT TIMES IT FEELS LIKE THE HEATER IS ON.

IIF I DRIVE OVER 55 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, MY VEHICLE STARTS TO SHAKE LIKE A DEATH RATTLE. IT BECOMES HARD TO CONTROL AND ALMOST CAUSES AN ACCIDENT

SUN VISOR FALLS OUT OF THE PLASTIC BRACKET. IS NOW HELD IN PLACE ONLY BY THE ELECTRICAL WIRE. THE SMALL PLASTIC CLIP HOLDING IT IN PLACE HAS BROKEN. APPEARS BY ON-LINE COMPLAINTS TO BE A PROBLEM EXPERIENCED BY MANY! MANY BROKE WELL BEFORE 40K MILES MINE BROKE ABOUT 1000 MILES PAST WARRANTEE ENDED. WAS DRIVING AT THE TIME. I'M ACTUALLY EXPECTING THE PASSENGER SIDE VISOR TO BREAK ANY TIME. IN MY OPINION, HORRIBLE DESIGN FLAW.

PASSENGER SIDE RUNNING LIGHT AND SIDE LIGHT STOPPED WORKING. CHANGED THE BULB AND DIDN'T FIX THE ISSUE. ALSO FOUND THE BACK RUNNING LIGHT TO WORK SO KNOW IT IS NOT A FUSE. APPEARS TO BE FAULY WIRING OR A BAD GROUND. HAS NEVER BEEN OFF ROAD WITH THIS VEHICLE AND ONLY 42K MILES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 25-35 MPH, THE VEHICLE SEIZED AND STOPPED. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO GULF CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP (3781 S MCKENZIE ST, FOLEY, AL 36535, (251) 943-5075) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE REAR DIFFERENTIAL HAD LOCKED UP. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,000.

WHILE DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS OUR 2018 JEEP WRANGLE UNLIMITED SPORT STARTED VIOLENTLY SHAKING SO BAD I COULD HARDLY HOLD ONTO THE STEERING WHEEL. I IMMEDIATELY APPLIED THE BRAKES TO SLOW DOWN AND THE SHAKING SUBSIDED. THIS HAS HAPPEN ABOUT FIVE TIMES SINCE IT FIRST OCCURRED. I ALSO RECEIVED A RECALL FROM FIAT CHRYSLER AUTOMOBILES (FCA) STATING THERE WAS A RECALL (V41) WHICH IS SUPPOSED TO FIX THIS ISSUE. WE MADE ARRANGEMENTS AT OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP TO GET THE RECALL WORK DONE BUT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE PART ON HAND EVEN AFTER THEY CONFIRMED THEY DID. THAT WAS ON JANUARY 15, 2021. THE DEALERSHIP (THOMPSONS CHRYSLER JEEP IN PLACERVILLE, CA) WAS TO CALL US WHEN THEY RECEIVED THE PART. IT HAD BEEN OVER A MONTH AND A HALF AND WE HAVE NOT HEARD A WORD FROM THEM EVEN AFTER NUMEROUS EMAILS ASKING FOR AN UPDATE.

I HAVE BEEN COMPLAINING TO THE DEALER ABOUT INCONSISTENT CLUTCH PRESSURE FOR 2+ YEARS. I HAVE PROVIDED THE DEALER DIFFERENT DATA ABOUT WHEN DRIVING AT CONSTANT SPEED FOR 20 MILES, THEN PRESSING IN THE CLUTCH THE FIRST TIME IT IS "HARD". FCA HAS HAD THE DATA AND INFORMATION ABOUT THESE CLUTCHED GETTING TO HOT AND EXPLODING. THEY ARE NOT OFFERING THE CORRECT SOLUTIONS (1ST SLEEVE ON A HOSE, NOT REDUCE TORQUE IF HIGH TEMP IS DETECTED -- THERE IS NO TEMP SENSOR IN THIS AREA.) FCA NEED TO TAK RESPONSIBILITY AND FIX THE VEHICLES CORRECTLY ! I CAN PROVIDE MY LOGS FROM THE DEALER ALONG WITH ALL OF MY INFORMATION THAT I PROVIDED THEM.

THE VEHICLE DISPLAY AND BACK UP CAMERA WILL FREEZE AND NOT BE USABLE OFTEN. IT WILL FREEZE AND NOT ALLOW ME TO SEE MY BACK UP CAMERA. IT WILL ALSO FREEZE AND NOT ALLOW ME TO TURN THE RADIO DOWN OR CHANGE A CHANNEL. THIS CAN HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING OR WHILE IT IS STATIONARY.

2018 JEEP WRANGLER. CONSUMER STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE BEGAN SHAKING, VIBRATING AND RATTLING. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE SERVICE TECHNICIAN ADVISED THE STEERING DAMPNER FAILED AND NEEDED TO REPLACED. THE TECHNICIAN ALSO STATED, THERE WAS A RECALL PERTAINING TO THE FAILURE BUT, THE VEHICLE'S MODEL WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS OUT OF WARRANTY. THE CONSUMER STATED AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED THE DASH AND GAUGES' LIGHTS WERE BOUNCING AND FLICKERING. THE WIRING HAD BEEN DAMAGED AND THE DEALER WOULD NOT ASSUME RESPONSIBILITY. *JS

HAVE BROUGHT MY CAR IN NUMEROUS TIMES TO JEEP T CORRECT ISSUE. BACK UP CAMERA DOESN'T ALWAYS FUNCTION. THE SCREEN IS BLACK WHEN REVERSING AND SOMETIMES THE SCREEN WORKS BUT WITHOUT GUIDING LINES. I CANNOT TELL YOU HOW MANY TIMES I HAVE ADVISED THEM OF THE ISSUE AND THEY HAVE SAID THEY CORRECTED IT BY RESETTING SOFTWARE OR WHATEVER BUT ISSUE ALWAYS COMES BACK. I AM WRITING TO YOU THIS TIME BECAUSE AN INCIDENT THAT JUST OCCURRED TODAY PUT ME OVER THE EDGE. THE SCREEN WAS BLACK WHILE REVERSING AND SINCE MY KEEP HAS A MOLAR LIFT KIT WITH 37 INCH TIMES I'M A BIT HIGH. I DIDN'T NOT SEE OR REALIZE THAT SOMEONE STANDING BEHIND ME AND I ACCIDENTALLY BACKED INTO THEM. MORE OF A BUMP BUT NONE THE LESS A SCARY SITUATION. SOMEONE COULD HAVE GOTTEN HURT. NOTHING HAPPENED BUT I AM CONCERNED NOW. I'M ALSO IN LAW ENFORCEMENT AND I SEE ACCIDENT ALL THE TIME. I HOPE THAT JEEP/CHRYSLER CORRECTS THIS ISSUE BEFORE A TRAGEDY HAPPENS. BACK UP CAMERAS ARE FEDERALLY MANDATED. SO THEY SHOULD ALSO BE MANDATED TO WORK EFFECTIVELY. ESPECIALLY AFTER THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT IT. I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE IN OCTOBER OF 2018 AND FROM THE BEGINNING OF MY PURCHASE I HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE AND BROUGHT IT TO THEM TO CORRECT WHICH THEY HAVE TRIED BUT APPARENTLY FAILED. I CANNOT PUT A DATE ON THE BOTTOM AND CORRECTLY SHOWS A TIME FRAME BUT KNOW THAT IS HAS BEEN SINCE OCTOBER OF 2018.

MY 2018 JEEP WRANGLER WAS PURCHASED IN JULY 2019 AND THE FIRST WEEK OF OWNING I NOTICED THAT THE BOTTOM OF THE JEEP'S FRAME APPEARED TO BE RUSTY. FIRST OWNER, HAD NOT BEEN THROUGH A MICHIGAN WINTER... YET. RECENTLY THE JEEP STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH LEAKING COOLANT AND ONCE I GOT UNDER THE VEHICLE, I WAS IN COMPLETE SHOCK WITH THE APPEARANCE OF THE FRAME. IT STILL IS RUSTY BUT THE ENTIRE FRAME LOOKED LIKE A 6TH GRADE ASPIRING ENGINEER DESIGNED THE VEHICLE AND USED PARTS FROM GRANDPAS GARAGE TO CONSTRUCT THE FRAME. THERE HAS GOT TO BE A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THE FRAME OF 2018 JEEP WRANGLERS.

2018 JEEP WRANGLER HAS TERRIFYING STEERING ISSUES. CONSISTENTLY WHILE STEERING A HIGHWAY CURVE AT 40-55 MPH MY JEEP STEERING DISENGAGES AND RESULTS IN AN UNSAFE INABILITY TO MAINTAIN THE STEERING COLUMN. THE STEERING CAN BE DESCRIBED AS LOOSE AND COMMONLY DESCRIBED BY PASSENGERS AS THE UNSETTLING FEELING THAT THE FRAME OF THE VEHICLE IS COMING OFF THE WHEELS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE NOT BEEN INJURED YET BUT IF THIS CONTINUES I DON'T THINK IT WILL REMAIN THAT WAY.

VEHICLES HAS EXCESSIVE PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHICH MAKES STAYING/DRIVING IN THE LANE DIFFICULT ON HIGHWAYS AND INCREDIBLY DIFFICULT ON SIDE ROADS. DEALER HAS REPLACED THE STEERING GEARBOX AND NOW SAYS IT DRIVES AS IT SOHULD. TAKEN VEHICLE TO OTHER SHOPS AND WAS TOLD THAT WHILE MOVING THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH THE DRAG LINK MOVES IMMEDIATLY BUT THE TIE ROD DOES NOT WHICH CONTRIBUTES TO THE EXCESSIVE PLAY FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL. ALSO THE GEARBOX MOVES AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE FRAME WHICH EXASPERATES THE PROBLEM EVEN MORE.

STEERING WHEEL BEGAN SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLY AFTER HITTING SMALL BUMP ON HIGHWAY GOING 70 MPH. WEATHER WAS BELOW FREEZING. HAD TO PULL OVER TO SHOULDER AND SLOW DOWN IN ORDER TO STOP THE SHAKING.

STEERING WHEEL SHAKE ABOVE 50 MPH AND DEATH WOBBLE MAKING A HAZARD CONDITION
