Two problems related to transmission fluid leaking have been reported for the 2013 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I received a recall notification in September, 2013 warning that the transmission oil cooler tube may come into contact with the power steering fluid return tube, causing a leak and possibly a failure or crash. The vehicle has been to the autonation dealership on 116th Ave. In bellevue, wa a total of three times since September 2013 to address this issue. It is now almost March 2014 and it still has not been fixed. They are placing all the blame on Chrysler for not being able to supply the parts. I called Chrysler this morning to confirm the insane waiting time for the parts to remedy the recall. The idea that it takes in excess of 5 months just to get parts for a serious recall issue is preposterous, and the lack of action negligible.
The contact owns 2013 Jeep Wrangler sport. The contact received notification of NHTSA campaign number: 13v234000 (power train , steering) and stated that the recall repair had surpassed a reasonable time for repair. The contact took the vehicle to the dealer and was advised that the part needed for the repair was not available. The manufacture was not replying to the dealer to advise of when the part would become available. The contact stated that transmission fluid was leaking from the vehicle. The approximate failure mileage was 8,000.
