Dashboard delaminating, leather seat ripping under normal ware with lots of maintenance. The leather used in the dashboard is separating from the dashboard itself and causing a wrinkle effect, where as the leather seat just ripped even though its cleaned and conditioned at least 4 times a year.
I have 4 recurring problems with my Jeep. First, the driver's heated seats periodically will not work. Second, upon starting my car, it will just stall or shut down. This happens 2 to 3 times a week. Third, the check engine light continuously comes on and off (and when I get it checked, I am told something about the thermostat, but have had no problems with it overheating). Finally, the cruise control on/off button will not work sometimes. I have to physically hit the steering wheel for it to work. I have read about tons of recalls for my year Jeep, but my VIN number is not included. I am starting to think it should be.
Creaking sound from passenger's seat when turning with and without the seat being occupied. Dealers do not know how to fix it. They said it was a manufacturer defect.
