Three problems related to manifold/header/muffler/tail pipe have been reported for the 2009 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
At 16000 miles, my driver side exhaust manifold cracked. The dealer replaced. It has now been replace 6 additional times. The dealer will not honor their original repair which obviously did not work. I am breathing insafe exhaust fumes. Chrysler corp has know about this problem (TSB 09-001-13) now Chrysler will not fix. It was under warranty the first 4 times it cracked. Clearly it is a warped head or valve problem. Either way exhaust comes in the car.
I found leaking transmission cooler lines on my Jeep Wrangler. I contacted Chrysler/Jeep by phone to inquire about a customer satisfaction notification l05 transmisson oil cooler lines issue pertaining to TSB: 2008-2010 jk Wrangler: transmission oil cooler lines may weep transmission fluid. TSB: 2008-2010 jk Wrangler: transmission oil cooler lines may weep transmission fluid subject: extended warranty -transmission oil cooler lines may weep transmission fluid at the hose to tube crimp joints (7 years or 70,000 miles warranty extension) overview: this bulletin involves installing new transmission oil cooler supply & return line assembly. Models: 2008 -2010 (jk) Wrangler note: this extended warranty bulletin applies to vehicles equipped with 3. 8l engine (sales code egt) and an automatic transmission (sales code dgv) built before March 10, 2010 (mdh0410xx). Symptom/condition: weeping transmission oil cooler lines at the hose-to-tube crimp joints. Diagnosis: if the symptom/condition is experienced proceed to the repair procedure. I was told my vehicle would not be covered by this and I would have to pay for the repairs. If these lines were to burst or open up enough to spray fluid it would ignite off the exhaust manifolds and burn the vehicle to the ground. This has happened to several Jeep owners I have found in my research and one owner had their vehicle burn even after the lines were improperly replaced by a dealership even. My Jeep meets all the criteria in the customer satisfaction notification l05 yet I was told it wasn't covered.
Cracked exhaust manifold drive side, broken bolt on passenger side exhaust manifold.
