In June 2013 a safety recall number n45/NHTSA 13v-252 was made for my vehicle. I got notice that the parts were not available. It is now March 2014, 9 months since the safety recall and I have yet to have the correction on my vehicle made! how long does it take to get the parts they new? how long can they drag their feet at the possible expense of someone's life?.
A recall based on 37 fatal accidents over the course of 20 years, involving millions of cars and billions, possibly trillions, of miles driven is absurd. It is more likely that a person would be struck by lightning than dying in a fire caused be a car crash. I would be willing to bet that there are at least ten other cars with a similar incidence of fire and fatality after a crash.
Consumer states the fuel guage is reading incorrect. Consumer states gauge is reading there is gas when theres is none. Please provide any further information.
Vehicle stalled while driving 55 mph due to a faulty gas gauge. Button popped off emergency brake lever.
Gas gauge does not indicate when vehicle is on empty. Took to dealer, and they replaced gas gauge. Consumer states the previous year Jeeps had exact same problem, however those were recalled.
While driving home the instrument panel quit working on our Jeep. As soon as this happened I contacted the dealer from my cell phone. On the way home it started to work again. Dealer said in order for them to look at it the panel could not be working call if it happened again. Second time the gas gauge quit and then started working again. The brakes make a funny noise and they have been replaced one time already. We have only had this Jeep for about 6 weeks the first two weeks it was in the shop.
Fuel level indicator failed cauising it to indicate it's empty when it's really full. Nlm.
Gas gauge failure.
Fuel warning gauge failed. Yh.
