My left hand drive Jeep unlimited Wrangler has a clock spring issue too that cannot be resolved. All Jeeps need to be on the recall, not just the right hand drive Jeeps.
The contact owns a 2013 Jeep Wrangler. While driving, the vehicle lost power. Occasionally, the vehicle would restart. The failure occurred on numerous occasions. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but the cause of the failure could not be determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 60,000.
Bought it with 36,800 miles on it. Vehicle started to stall/die after start and engaging drive or reverse. Also can do it coming to a stop and starting from a red light. Has happened 20 times since I have owned it. Happened once on the freeway in rush hour traffic. Once you restart the transmission takes up to 10 seconds to shift in the selected gear. Also, windows failed to operate on one occasion, had to stop turn off engine and restart to get to work. A/c blower turns off intermittently. Blue tooth has stopped working with phone. I cannot hear the people anymore through the stereo.
My new to me, but still under factory warranty, Jeep Wrangler sahara 2dr, caught fire and burned the day I got it. It had been driven 250kms from the Jeep dealer to me, then parked until the evening. I took it for a drive for about 40km without incident, parked, and had dinner with a friend. After dinner, I used the remote start to test it, unlocked it, and got in and drove off. I stopped at a store a minute up the road, left it idling, and came out to find my check engine light flashing. I cycled the ignition, and the light went out. I proceeded towards home, but two minutes later the light came back on, followed by a very loud bang, then then the smoke from the hood. I was travelling at about 10km/hr in a neighbouthood having just turned from a stop. My vehicle came to a stop, my passenger and I jumped out, called 911, and watched as a fire coming from what appeared to be the passenger side, with something dripping and burning as well, consumed the front of the Jeep. I notified the dealership and Jeep canada but have yet to receive responses. Insurance deemed it a total loss. I'd owned the vehicle for 8 hours. It had 50,000kms on the odometer, and one outstanding recall (14v-631) that wasn't done prior to delivery to me.
Vehicle stalls at random times but most often when putting into reverse after sitting for a while. It has stalled while driving on major roads which could have been life threatening. The transmission also shifts very jerky at times for no real reason. The windshield wipers will come on randomly and usually seem tied to turn on the turn signals which happen to be on the other control knob. Lights will dim on nav/radio when windshield wipers are turned on. I would say there is an obvious electrical/computer issue that must be causing these things to happen. I have read hundreds of similar complaints.
My Jeep was parked on the street in front of my house for about 13 hours and a electrical fire started on the front passenger side at around 3am. It burned half the vehicle before being put out and totaled out my Jeep. It also damaged the entire back end of the car parked in front of me. The fire department ruled this was a electrical fire and not arson. Days before I noticed the outside temp was reading at 119 degrees out side when the temp was actually 99 degrees. I'm not sure if this had anything to do with it but I found it very odd. I have read thousands of incidents similar to this some involving worst property damage and even cases with fatalities. I think Chrysler/Jeep need to be held accountable for this and get these dagerous vehicles off the streets ASAP.
Airbag light displayed and will not turn off, along with intermittent chime. Failure occurred on 7/15/2016 at about 37400 miles. Jeep dealer service dept (autonation Chrysler Jeep arapahoe, centennial, CO) confirmed that the clockspring had failed. Not repaired due to part unavailability. Vehicle is a 2013 Jeep Wrangler rubicon.
The contact owned a 2013 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that the vent controls failed to work for the heat and air conditioner intermittently. In addition, there may have been toxic fumes emitting through the vents when the heat or air conditioner were activated, which affected a child passenger's breathing. The vehicle was taken to the dealer more than three times, but they were unable to replicate and diagnose the failure. In addition, the contact was not experiencing any engine failures before the vehicle was taken to the dealer for a manufacturer recall where the dealer replaced the engine sensors and the transmission. The service engine light illuminated after the repair. The vehicle was taken back to the dealer who provided no solution after the recall repair. The contact noticed that shortly after leaving the dealer, smoke emitted into the vehicle and flames appeared under the hood. The contact was able to exit the vehicle and the fire department extinguished the flames. A report was not filed. The vehicle was destroyed and was towed to the contacts residence. The manufacturer was notified and stated that they would provide an investigation. The contact was still waiting on a response from the manufacturer. The failure mileage was not available.
Woke up approx. 0230 to find my 2013 Jeep Wrangler sport engulfed in flames in my driveway. The last time the Jeep was running was approx. 8pm the night prior.
Vehicle stalled without warning. It has stalled 5 times while driving with no warning at different speeds and after different driving times. This time I had only driven 5 mins and about 300 yrds when it stalled. It has not started 2 times prior when leaving work. After 10mins the vehicle started and I drove it another 515 miles to dealership. Waiting to see what they do after the 5th time at the dealership. This thing is going to kill me one day. It has already stalled on the interstate at 60mph. It is only a matter of time.
Got vehicle back from dealership after 5 different stallings and 3 times it did not start this is 3rd time at dealership. No code came up, tech drove 20 mins and they had no problem, said come pick up your vehicle. Got vehicle back on Thursday, drove Friday 240 miles with one stop in the middle with no issues. Drove back home 240 miles 2 days later, 3 hours and 45 mins into 4 hour drive, it stalled out with no warning. On single lane secluded road outside miami. Krome Ave- no passing 2 lane road. Car stalled out with no warning. Was able to drift to side of road, waited 5 mins and it started back up. After it had stalled out and was on side of the road, it showed the lightning bolt in the venturi symbol. I escaped death and injury again. I have decided to get an insurance death policy on me. I think my luck is going to be running out after this being the 6th time stalling and 3rd time not starting. What do I do now?????? I have put a lot of money in this Jeep, with bumpers a lift kit. . . . I have no idea what to do. Chrysler is not helping. They have had other Chrysler vehicles including Jeep cherokees that were recalled with this same problem but yet they cant fix my vehicle. I guess there were more rich people driving the other vehicles.
Tipm failure. Blower motor for heat/ac stopped working. This part was replaced under warranty at approx 25k miles and now the problem is back. This is a widespread Jeep/Chrysler issue which they have come to settlements on for other models. This issue needs to be addressed for the Wrangler model line.
Tipm is defective causing electrical faults in the headlights,transfer case, brakes and windshield wipers.
Windshield wipers do not work. Fog lights do not work. Engine light and traction control lights come on and off at random. Dealer advised tipm is bad and must be replaced. Back log on replacement part and ship date is unknown.
Failed tipm. Waiting weeks on tipm to be available. On national back order due to failure of part. Chrysler continues to have tipm issues in additional to the already recalled years/models.
Jeep stalls on occasion. Very annoying. Usually starts right up and no check engine light.
Upon starting this vehicle in my driveway in preparation to go to work, the wipers came on and will not turn off, or slow down. This is a right hand drive Jeep- I am a mail carrier and I have to have this to work six days a week. A week later the front power windows would not work for a period of time. The rear windows would work. Later in the day they suddenly started working again. I now have to raise the hood and pull the fuse to stop the wipers. The Jeep dealership tells me I have a faulty tipm and will have to buy a new one - $1019. It has been two weeks and they still do not have this part to repair the problem. I would guess the delay is due to the high demand for replacement tipms because they continue to use the defective ones in manufacture. This Jeep is only three years old, and I see that earlier years have had recalls for faulty tipms and even a lawsuit involving older models than mine. . This is obviously a problem Jeep knows about and has experienced for many years without correcting it. They obviously have continued to knowingly install faulty tipms in their vehicles. They should be held accountable and not make owners pay for something that they know is faulty when they manufactured it.
My Jeep engine stalled completely. I was taking off from a stop light on a 4 lane highway and it stalled with no warning. I was able to roll to a side road. I waited 5 mins and I was ablet to start it back up, replaced what I thought was the battery. 3 days later was on a busy interstate in downtown miami and it completely stalled again. In the middle of a busy 6 lane highway, I was very lucky to get through the traffic and roll into the median. I waited 5 minutes and was able to start it again. Drove directly to dealership that said it will take weeks to fix. Also have issue with lurching transmission at between 1500 to 1600 rpm. It clunks into the next gear. Also, getting electrical issues with cigarrete lighter. When using a charger in cigarrete lighter the radio does not work, it becomes just static.
About a year ago the Jeep would lose power driving on the road, the ignition light would come on and then in 4 or 5 second it would regain power, this happened about 3 times and I took it back to the dealer I purchased it from in crawfordsville,indiana . They said that they fixed it and for about a year I had no problem's. It has done the same thing twice in the last two weeks and I have now taken it back to the dealer again. The last time this happened I was on a ramp going from one interstate to another with a semi riding my rear bumper and if the power had not come back on quickly I would propably not be here today to report this.

May 20, 2015 Chrysler customer assistance p. O. Box 21-8007 auburn hills, mi 48321-8007 attn: customer complaints recall notice #p61/NHTSA 14v-631 Jeep Wrangler unlimited VIN 1c4bjwdg6dl621585 customer service gentlemen: evidently a service appointment means very little to you. Back in December last year, you sent me two recall notices concerning the heated mirrors on Jeep Wranglers. At the time, I removed the fuse from position m35 to disable this feature per the notices, and waited for the letter announcing that parts were available to correct the condition. That letter came sometime in March and I called the number to schedule an appointment sometime in mid-April and was scheduled for repairs on 5/20/15 at 7:00am. I specifically told the girl making the appointment that I did not have a ride and would have to wait on my vehicle. She told me that would not be a problem if I got there on time and they could move it through pretty quickly. Yesterday (5/19/15) a recorded message was left on my voice mail reminding of the appointment today. So far so good. This morning is where the inconvenience occurred. After arriving at the dealer at 7:00am, I was informed that they were ã¢running behind and still had 11 vehicles left over from yesterday. They said they could probably get to mine late this afternoon, or possibly tomorrow morning. Since this Jeep is my only vehicle, that is virtually an impossibility for me. I had already rearranged my schedule to be there this morning. Now I still have the same problem with no resolution. Needless to say, I view this as very poor customer service at least at the dealer level and Iã¢m not happy about it. Sincerely, j f vance benchmark Chrysler Jeep Dodge NHTSA.

My truck has been brought in for service twice for repeatedly stalling while in motion. It has been at the dealership service department for a combined 56 days. I first brought the vehicle in for service on 1/13/2015, after the vehicle stalled on 1/9/2015 while driving 70 mph, and 1/13/2015 when accelerating to 50 mph. My vehicle was cleared to pick up on 1/24/2015 following service that included computer updates, physical inspection, and road testing. My vehicle stalled again on 2/5/2015 while driving on a highway entrance ramp. In all three cases, the vehicle started without assistance in about ten minutes. I immediately returned my vehicle to the dealership for service. I was informed that the service department would contact the manufacturer to send a technician to inspect my vehicle. They never did. On 3/6/2015, I contacted Jeep customer service requesting additional help. My case was referred to a special case manager where my concerns were rudely dismissed. I have been contacted multiple times by the dealership to pick up my truck since 3/11/2015, despite the failure of the service department to identify what is causing the vehicle to stall. I do not feel the truck is safe to drive. I have a family and will not put them at risk because the dealership and manufacturer are being negligent. I will not pick up the vehicle until the problem is identified and repaired, or the vehicle is replaced. I have seen a similar case involving a 2013 Jeep Wrangler that stalls for unidentified reasons posted on the NHTSA web site. This also sounds similar to the recent gm recall due to defective ignition systems that resulted in stalling and caused numerous fatalities. Thank you in advance for your assistance.
I received a vehicle recall notification about 8 months ago and despite my constant communication with my dealer, all I have received from them are vague excuses and the deficiencies have not been corrected yet. As a former military officer, these type of poor attention to recalls is unacceptable. Please asist at your earliest convenience.

While driving my 2013 Jeep Wrangler, at cruising speed of 45 mph, the instrument panel started flashing random emergency icons. This flashing of the vehicles cluster along with speedometer and rpm gauge moving erratically continued for about 5 minutes until it stopped and only the traction control light remained on. I pulled over and turned off the vehicle. I restarted the vehicle, which seemed to fix the issue because the traction light turned off and everything seemed to be working. This is the first incident in which the lights flash continuously for several minutes, prior incidents had only flashed the cluster lights a couple of times and then they went back to normal. I contacted my dealership and they indicated they have only received reports of this issue on the Jeep cherokee.
