Three problems related to cruise control have been reported for the 2018 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I was using the cruise control when traveling on the highway (3hr drive) was getting off the exit and when I went to cancel it would not do it nor turn off. I was very fortunate that was able to press the brake and was able to come to a complete stop. I called the dealer and the corporate office and it shows no recalls. They suggested to make a complaint through NHTSA. This vehicle should be included under the recall u62/NHTSA 18v-332. Any assistance will be appreciated.
Just bought a 2018 Wrangler jl leftover/ brand new off the lot. I immediately noticed that the steering is very loose and difficult to control. This is especially true in wind or if driving 55 miles per hour or more. My husband refuses to drive the car because he feels unsafe doing so. I get very nervous as well. I'm constantly having to adjust the wheel to stay on the road. The second issue is that sometimes when I set the cruise control it will just keep going past my designated speed I chose unless I turn it off. Lastly my car seems to not shift gears down. It throttles and revs. When I took it to be looked at I was told it's no big deal. Well it is! even my local mechanic said he feels that it's not switching properly between gears. I've waited 22 years to buy my first Wrangler and I paid $42000 for it. It should not do any of this! it's brand new. It's also a safety hazard. I could get into a major accident! I need help with these things please. Stand behind your product. This is my first Wrangler but my 4th Jeep. I also talked my mom and brother into buying new Jeeps the same week I did last month! my contact is 315-723-6849. Lisa addison wilson. I'd like call back so someone can help me. Thank you.
Cruise control "on" at appx. 55 mph - had to brake due to traffic - but, cruise control remained "on" - only heavy braking eventually stopped vehicle - cruise control was "fighting" the brakes - brakes "won" that battle. Took it to dealer who could not find anything wrong.
