Engine Oil Leaking problems of the 2015 Jeep Wrangler

Failure of combined oil filter / cooler housing resulting in abrupt loss of engine oil and resulting in small fire following exhaust system saturation from leaking oil.

Jeep 2014 and older are issued a part called the oil cooler/filter housing which is prone to leaking oil on all Chrysler engineers using this part. This is defective and or a design flaw resulting in replacement and costly repair and is a reoccurring failure on all chryslers using this part. This failed on my Jeep Wrangler with 48k miles. The part is approximately $300 to replace and over all repair at a non dealership is upwards of $1000. 00. This issue needs to be a recall!.

Oil cooler leak. I lost over 2 quarts of oil after a short drive. The seals were also leaking into the injectors causing multiple cylinder misfire codes and check engine light warnings. No warnings from the oil cooler except the large puddle of oil under the Wrangler and oil coating the entire back of the engine and skid plate.

Oil filter/cooler housing developed a leak. Was told by mechanic that it is most likely cracked. Replacement part is on indefinite back order, at least 45 days. Leak is bad enough that I can not safely drive the vehicle. It has been sitting in the garage for 4 weeks.

I was driving my keep and started smelling oil and had smoke coming from under my car. I notice on my garage floor large oil leak. I picked up my disabled son and noticed it had gotten worse. I was forced to stop by my mechanic and was told my oil cooler adaptor housing was broken and leaking badly. I had purchased a mopar protection plan directly from company. When I called Jeep dealership they said I would have to bring it and let them diagnose it before they could decide if it was covered by my mopar care plan. My mechanic informed me that this was a common problem with this Jeep engine but they had not done recall yet. I call mopar and they would not authorized payment to my mechanic unless he call for authorization number. He called and they said no. This part needs to be handled by a recall if it's that bad. I was reading complaints on another site and they said it could lead to a fire starting because of oil leaking onto exhaust.
