Recall number r13/nhtsa15v-222 clutch interlock switch - the problem I am having is we made an appointment with westbury Jeep new york to have this taken care of they kept the car for three days and could not repair it. We were told that they could not get the part. The service department of westbury Jeep inept in providing the required service to correct this, had a total disregard for the needs of the customer to get this repaired in a timely fashion and what was disappointing they had no idea on a part that they manufactured how to get a hold of it. As a result we took the car home with out getting this repaired. As such I would like to report this dealership for failing to remedy and provide proper customer service!.

In one example out of many engine cuts out completely, vehicle slows down then cuts back in. 15 times, then engine cuts out and stalls. Leaving me in an emergency situation on the freeway. All this during a 40 mile trip.

I was traveling at about 45 mph on open road when the vehicle shook so bad I pulled off the road, because I had trouble hanging on to the wheel. I looked this up and it was called a death wobble. I bought the vehicle used in 2013 after trading in a 1999 Wrangler that I never had such a problem with. I have replaced the stabilizer bar and stabilizer link bushings, track bar and bushings and still get a wobble but not as bad. There is certainly something wrong but no one is admitting it. Why does it take someone getting seriously injured or killed to get the problem recognized and fixed.

Hello my name is eric w perry. I have a 2006 Wrangler unlimited Jeep VIN: 1j4fa44s96p763154 which will start with the clutch out and the transmission in gear. This has been this way since I bought it in 2010. This notice is the 3rd one for me. The previous two I took to central Dodge in raynham, MA when at both times would contact me when they have the required parts. They still to this day have not contacted me at all. I have never had any recall problem with any vehicle that I have ever owned except for this one. I am at a loss as to what to do next so this is why I am writing to you now. Please advise me at this e-mail address or call me at (508) 272-5702. Thank you in advance. Yours truly, eric w perry.
Trac bar had to be replaced after 74k. Along with the replacement, steering stablizer and alignment was required. This was a costly repair. Now, 20k later, trac bar is again needing to be replaced. After much research, this issue is experienced by a huge amount of Wrangler owners, but Chrysler has never addressed the issue. I love my Jeep, but am unsure if I would buy another. This flaw creates a huge hazard. The entire front end shakes uncontrollably and essentially becomes very hard to control.
I would like to complain about a 2006 rhd Jeep Wrangler I purchased from chris myers in daphne al. On 4/01/10. Lemon is not the word. Before driving off the lot with vehicle I noticed the fan switch for the ac/heater only operated on high speed. Hours later the dealership finally replaced the switch from someones personal vehicle because the switch is so hard to come by apparently. Within 2 mos the switch for the fan went out again. Had to wait another 3 mos. (on back order) the gear shifter cable broke next and had car towed and repaired. Also, it was running extremely hot, I would have to shut vehicle down to cool. Then to top it off on Aug. 13th 2010 the transmission fell out on my way to work. I had bought the vehicle on April 1st (fools day) and boy was I fooled. I thought this would be a dependable, reliable vehicle for my job, the postal service even gives $1000 incentives for their carriers to buy Jeeps. Biggest mistake ive ever made. I could of lost my job trying to drive this Jeep if my boss hadn't been understanding about all the breakdowns and downtimes I had. I would not reccomend a Jeep to my worst enemy. Jeep to me stands for just empty each pocket. Even Jeep wont stand behind their vehicles. Can't buy extended warranty for a rhd Jeep they designed to deliver mail in. Is that a joke or what? I have owned numerous vehicles and not paid near the price I did for this Jeep and this has to be the worst experience ever. Be Smart dont make the mistake I did. If you do buy a Jeep better buy it brand new under warranty cause you will need it. Big time. And get out from under it before the warranty goes out. The dealership nor the manufactures of the Jeep were willing to help me at all. I was stuck with it and nothing I could do. I am just now (6 mos. Later)rebuilding the transmission. I had to have a break from it. I was tired of staying stressed out and upset. As soon as it is repaired I am trading it. Get a warranty for sure.
I own a 2006 Jeep Wrangler se which I bought in may 22, 2009 with 14000 miles. On June 7th the vehicle front end began to shake and wobble the entire car and steering wheel uncontrollably after reaching 45-50 mph or on a rough road or just a slight bump in the road makes the vehicle have this problem. This happened to me 5 separate times today all while either the vehicle was in gear or in neutral and wouldn't stop until I slowed the vehicle down to 30 or came to a stop.
