general problems of the 2013 Jeep Wrangler

My 2013 Jeep Wrangler rubicon, has a non-functional horn and steering wheel controls, including cruise control and audio buttons, which stopped working in. I suspect a faulty clockspring, as these symptoms match issues in prior Jeep Wrangler recalls for 2007-2012 models (NHTSA campaign 11v528000), where clockspring failures also disabled horns and risked airbag malfunctions. My vehicle shows. This poses a safety risk, as the horn is critical for avoiding collisions. No repairs attempted yet, but similar complaints appear online from other 2013 Wrangler owners. Please investigate for a potential recall.

My dash lights went crazy while driving. I couldn't get the vehicle into the correct gear ( automatic transmission) I shut off waited then restarted drove home. After having the codes scaned it shows c2200 code ( faulty brake abs module) called dealer they had none to sell or buy and told me no time was given to them when or if it would be available. I asked them what's the solution to using my vehicle safely then park it and don't drive it. . Since then I've found thousands of people just like my situation. How can you build a vehicle and be unable to supply the public with replacement parts to operate as intended and not have a recall or offer a solution to trade off said vehicle. It's definitely a safety issue when a100,000 + owners have the exact same issue and no help in sight.

Car surges at times when braking. Increased brake pressure to stop vehicle causes engine to accelerate rapidly when pressing hard to stop vehicle. Dangerous situation. This has happened numerous times when trying to stop at a traffic signal.

The control buttons on the steering wheel for speed control and radio and menu for the odometer plus the horn started working only part-time. If you wiggle or turn the steering wheel 90 degrees sometimes everything will work. The airbag light also comes on indicating there is an airbag problem. This sometimes will go away with the right wiggle of the steering wheel. The service department said it is a bad clockspring on the steering column. There is a recall on this (s40) but not listed on my Jeep. This started about 6 months ago and has gotten progressively worse.

At low speeds, usually while braking, the Jeep will lurch forward/accelerate.

The vehicle keeps losing power at the most inopportune times (passing a vehicle; in a construction zone with no shoulder; on a highway). I have almost gotten into 4 accidents b/c of this problem. Whenever the vehicle goes faster than 70 mph. . . Power is lost. It continually throws off a code of 0369. The dealership has replaced the following to try to fix the problem: replaced abs system; replaced stability control system; replaced oil filter housing; replaced the cam twice; swapped the cam; replaced the cam phaser; replaced all 4 cam phasers; re-flashed the pcm; replaced the pcm. Today it goes in to the dealership for the 10th time to try to get it fixed. It is a death trap to all that share the road with it, not to mention extremely unreliable. It has never been off-roaded and is well maintained.

My Jeep has been to four different dealers and I am still having the same issues with it as I did when I bought it one year ago. The engine light comes on and power is lost when this happens. The vehicle is usually in motion when this happens.

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.

When you pull onto the road it starts to hit the brakes and when you try to hit the gas it still hits the gas then the abs comes on than the anti slip comes on and than the other one comes on like you are going down the hill comes on. It keeps up hitting my brakes than for a little while it lets up off my brakes but the lights stay on.

Driving on highway and factory installed floor mat lodged so the accelerator was depressed. Put vehicle in neutral and the rpms went up to six until I relized what happened and unlodged rubber mat from accelerator.

My abs brakes come on at low speeds usually when I'm just starting out driving. The only way for me to continue driving is to disable the skid control. The abs lights will stay on and the ante skid control light will stay on for a brief amount of time sometimes it will go off and sometimes it will just stay on. The only time that it seems to not happen is when the car is on a flat surface and I just started out and all tires are straight. I tested a theory that I could put it in 4 wheel drive and start driving and the anti-lock brakes wouldn't come on and that work for the longest time. The minute I described it to a friend of mine and tested it out it failed anti-lock brakes came on when I was in 4 wheel drive at low speed.

The contact owns a 2013 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while driving at 20 mph, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle shifted into park and restarted. When the accelerator pedal was applied, it traveled to the floorboard but the vehicle would not move. The failure occurred twice. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 37,580.

In several ocassions the Jeep would completely turn off at red lights or after complete stops. I took the Jeep to the dealership 4 different times and was told nothing was wrong. On Friday 11/14/14 I was going 60 mph on the highway when the Jeep suddenly lost speed and immediately turned off/stalled, I lost steering power. It was very difficult to get out of the traffic. The Jeep did not turn back on until 45 minutes later as I waited for the tow truck. I was again told by the dealership that the computer diagnosis is not detecting any malfunction, really???.

My wife and I had just left a local business mid-day on a warm dry summer day. Was less than a block away and traveling slowly at approx 20 mph. Applied brake as we rolled up to a stop sign. Engine started to increase rpm on its own requiring evermore increasing brake pedal pressure in an attempt to come to a stop. Standing on the brake pedal engine rpm reached 2500. I put the gear select into neutral. The brakes grabbed, the engine rpm shot up and returned to standard idle. I put the car in drive and car behaved normal after that. This has occurred approx 6 times over past year. Took it to dealer twice with no resolution. Floor mats secure and locked down. I drive right foot only and brake cleanly and square on the brake pedal. This only occurs at low speed, when engine is warm, and even squealed the tires ( burned rubber ) once. Must slam into neutral to get it to stop.

While backing out of a parking space, I was moving the shifter to reverse and heard a clunk sound. It was not a smooth shift. Immediately the check engine light came on. I backed the vehicle out of space and move the automatic shifter to drive and heard another clunking noise. The check engine light stayed on. As I tried to pick up speed the transmission would not shift and the rpm's went higher and higher. We drove the car up to 40 mph and the transmission would not shift. So we decided to take the car home and not operate the vehicle as the transmission was not shifting properly or not at all.

Tl- the contact owns a 2013 Jeep Wrangler. A recall NHTSA campaign number: 13v234000 (power train, steering) was received. The contact attempted to make an appointment but was informed that the part was unavailable and no time frame was given. The contact has not experienced any issues. The manufacturer was made aware of the issue. The approximate failure mileage was 6000. - ll.

I purchased the Jeep Wrangler new from david stanley Jeep,in midwest city oklahoma. The vehicle had aftermarket wheels and tires on it before I purchased it. While taking the intial test drive I asked the salesman if the speedometer had been adjusted for the oversized tires. He assured me that it had because they would never sell anything that wasn't right. About a month after I purchased the vehicle I was pulled over for going 30 in a 25 zone. I had seen the police officer prior to being pulled over so I checked my speed and I knwe I was going the correct speed. Since that time I make it a habit to drive by the mobile speed radars that are placed around town and every time my speedometer is 5mph off. This is at a low speed so it will only get worse at a higher speed. I brought this to the dealer attention and they refused to fix it. I then sent a complaint to Chrysler and they have refused to help as well.

Appx. Nine months ago I received a recall for the transmission oil cooler tube(n28 / NHTSA 13v-234) I went to don avee dealer in placentia,CA. They put me on a waiting list. I checked with them three or four months ago and they tell me that Jeep will not send out enough parts to repair the the problem. I`ve been told when Jeep sends the dealer the part they will contact who ever is next on the waiting list.
