My check engine light came on and I took it to my mechanic who said it seemed to just be a sensor. Then I went to start it one night after work and it wouldn't start. So I had to call aaa and they said maybe battery. So replace battery and now again, check engine light and it struggles to start and jerks while driving. My check engine light is on again.
My vehicle has been broken into more than 5 times in the past 6 months and I have all these people following me around on every location I am while serving my mail route. . . I spent over 2500 on sensors and wiring but my vehicle continues to flash check engine lights and chimes constantly while driving down the road. I am very concerned the computer system has been compromised several different occasions and I have went too 2 different Jeep dealerships and both are pulling different codes on the exact same day. The codes were reset I drove 25 miles to the next dealership when all sorts of lights started flashing and the engine lost power. I got to the next dealership that pulled codes and said nothing was happening. I even had a person contact me from one of the dealerships telling me to come in for a service part that I had not confirmed to be ordered . My fear for my safety is of high concern if someone is deliberately trying to sabotage my vehicle.
My Jeep Wrangler is stalling and once I get it restarted the transmission will jerk when shifting. I have taken it to my local Jeep dealer and they were not able to locate the problem. When this happens the check engine light is not coming on so they can't diagnose it. This typically happens when in reverse or when coming to a stop in drive. This has happened several times in traffic. I am afraid this will cause an accident. The reason I took it to the dealership, I was in traffic at a stoplight and it stalled on me 5 times before I could get it to keep running. This has also happened when sitting still and idoling. I love my Jeep and have wanted one since I was a kid. I was very disappointed that the dealership was not able to fix the problem. I found online where 2017-18 models were having this same issue. My Wrangler is a 2013 sport unlimited. I think you should consider looking into expanding this recall to include older years. I am asking for your help to fix this issue in my Jeep. Please advise my local dealership of how to find and fix the issue. Please help before an accident is caused by this problem.
Driving down interstate, check engine soon light, and traction control light come on, vehicle loses power, decelerates on its own. Cruise control stops working. Have to almost floor gas pedal to keep power going to vehicle. Vehicle then randomly has small burst of acceleration on its own. Occured while driving down I-10. Occurs randomly while driving, without warning. Almost caused a major accident between myself and a semi, while my kids were in the vehicle.
As I research what is wrong with my Jeep it has been a happening for quite a bit of people. Nobody has been able to find a solution for this issue, what has been happening is when driving my 2013 Jeep Wrangler at all my check engine light comes on and I instantly lose power plus my abs and traction control lights turn on and I end up going into limp mode. It mostly happening on the freeway and going up hills, but has also been happening even when it is in park. My Jeep has been in the shop with a trusted mechanic for 3 months and he has not been able to find the issue either. All of the research I have done tons of people has been having this issue but seems as though no one can find the cause of the problem either. . . I'm unsure of what to do now.
I bought this 2013 Jeep not even two years ago and I've sank over 8,000 dollars in repair into it. Their should be a ton of recalls on these Jeeps around the same year. I'm a mail carrier and my first route was all paved roads. This had nothing to do with delivering the mail. These Jeeps are junk and Jeep won't take initiative for it. The traction control and check engine light stay on. Every time it's been fixed it's been cam shafts, rocker arms, cam shaft sensors, steering sensor, clock spring, and wiring harness. It shouldn't have to be fixed that many fines and continue to happen. These Jeeps should be able to withstand more being made for postal vehicles. Every carrier or person I know with one has the same exact issue. When those lights come on the Jeep literally loses all power, it still runs but ticks and sounds like it is about to blow up. The vehicle does it while sitting and driving. It's got a constant tick too. It's been to surrounding dealerships and I get told the same thing. I pay 500 dollars a month for a piece of crap. Jeep needs to take responsibility for this. Their are law suits against them, and I have no doubt the customers will win. Something needs to be done. This is America, we work our butts off to pay for something Jeep is responsible for, its not right.
My check engine light illuminated and the engine was running rough, possible loss of power. Per Jeep / Chrysler / Dodge / ram / mopar technical service bulletin 18-034-14 rev. A and TSB-18-034-14 on some model vehicles and Jeeps, (my 2013-2014) the malfunction indicator lamp (mil) illuminates and diagnostic trouble code (dtc) p0520 is set regarding engine oil pressure sensor circuit. The TSB outlines replacing the oil pressure sensor with a "revised" part. Chrysler installed defective sensors on many 2013-2014 3. 6l engines and will only replace them if they fail while under warranty. If the oil pressure sensor is malfunctioning, it may not alert you to an issue with oil pressure. This can cause engine failure and potential to cause an accident due to engine failure / loss of power.
Vehicle exhibits stalling and engine shut off at idle or low speeds below 60 mph. Vehicle bucks/slips/jerks at speeds of 60 mph+ as witnessed by dealer service mechanic. Vehicle intermittently will not go into gear or will reverse while in drive and must be turned off and returned to park, before attempting to restart. Check engine light on. No dealer codes found therefore, unable to properly diagnose and repair. Vehicle is very unsafe and unstable.
Jeep stalls on occasion. Very annoying. Usually starts right up and no check engine light.
As I begin to pull into heavy traffic, I hear and see the check engine light warning along with the skid control light illuminating. The car then stalls leaving me sitting in 70 mph traffic. The vehicle starts back up but has a noticeable loss of power. This loss of power continued until I got home. When I finally get home I use a code reader which indicated it was a camshaft position sensor. Code p0344. This could have been a much worse incident as there were no mechanical issues leading up to this.
The car began to idle roughly--it would rattle and shake just sitting at a red light. If I tried to just roll the vehicle slightly forward, it would stutter. Check engine light came on, but the manual informs to wait a few drive cycles to see if it will just turn off. Pulled the diagnostic code (p0306) and it was a cylinder 6 misfire issue. Took car in on 9 Dec 2014 and the entire left cylinder column was replaced. On 24 Dec 2014, the same issues began to occur and the check engine light illuminated with the same diagnostic code. Car will be taken in on 26 Dec 2014 for service.
Vehicle was in park, when I put it into drive, the engine shut off. Did this 4 times before I was able to keep it going. Got down the road, and when I stopped at the stop sign, engine quit again. Also Jeep would not go into drive it was stuck in neutral. After several attempts, Jeep went into drive. From there every time the vehicle stopped the engine would stall. No check engine lights came on, no warnings no nothing.
Brand new vehicle, after 6,000 miles check engine light comes on, take it in, they have it for a month, had to replace heads. Get it back, now at 50,000 miles the heads have to be replaced again, but this time they say drive it. It will cut out of power and run very rough, but they keep telling me its ok. I talked to a mechanic that works there, and he said it is happening all over the country and that they are on back order for the heads and cant keep up with all the demand. All 2013 Jeeps have this problem, most just go in and they flash the code, and send them on their way. I am on a Jeep forum, and they all have the same problem. What are my rights if it happens a third time. I don't want the same defective motor put in it.
