Clutch is getting hot warning screens says to stop using clutch. It’s a manual transmission can’t really do that and drive it. My Jeep should have never been made. Special ordered in September 2022 cause I was told they had recall problem fixed in 23 models. I recieved Jeep February 10 2023, March 2 the added 2023 models made up to February 2023 to recall and halted all manual transmission to be made. I feel like Jeep lied to me and should have never taken my order even ! I traded a 2022 Jeep Wrangler that nothing was wrong with cause we wanted manual transmission and then find out the clutch’s are under recall. Dealer won’t do anything and Jeep is not helping.

I'll start by stating that I currently have two Jeep Wrangler jl models that are identical, a 2020 and the one that I'm contacting you about the 2023. There is a safety issue with the 2023 where the vehicle programming causes the engine to rev itself to around 2,800 rpm's upon a cold start. This is after the engine has warmed up to operating temperature at idle. So the safety complaint is that as I begin to drive the vehicle in a parking lot with pedestrians in it, the vehicle will auto rev while in gear causing excessive and unsafe speeds in that situation. My identical 2020 Jeep Wrangler does not and never has done this. I strongly suspect that this is an emissions compliance programming issue with the software to heat up the catalytic convertor. Whatever their reasoning for doing this it's still an unsafe vehicle feature, one that multiple other owners have stated that they are having the same issue. I have reached out to fca to no avail, case# 86685993. I do look forward to hearing from you and hope that with your assistance we can get this safety issue figured out. Thank you!.

Was driving my one week old 2023 Wrangler sahara xe. Came to a stop. I started to drive and my engine completely shut down. Rendering me stuck in the middle of a roadway in traffic. The message on the dash read that there was a shut down on my vehicle and stated something about the transmission . There was no warning, the engine just shut down and put itself in park! I have three children. . This is scary . I contacted the dealer and dropped the vehicle off for the day where it was inspected but no code was found as a fault. I see thousands of other Jeeps (xe’s) have the same engine shut down issue. I presented these facts to the dealer. They dated that they can’t do anything without a code!please help fix this. Too many are experiencing this very real and dangerous issue!.

I understand this is an ongoing recall, but will the NHTSA get involved to help push for a resolution? I have not had a vehicle since March and according to Jeep, the "fix" is still in an engineering and design phase which could take months/years. There was a class action lawsuit and Jeep asked to have the lawsuit dropped if they did a voluntary recall. Well, now it feels like since they are not under a lawsuit, they can take their time with the recall. Who can help push Jeep into getting this thing done? thank you.

The instrument panel displayed a message to “shift to park” then shift to the desired gear. The contact placed the vehicle in park and then back to drive to continue driving the vehicle.

The vehicle was returned to the dealer however, the cause of the failure was not yet determined. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure.

Purchased the 2023 Jeep Wrangler on Jan 20th. The next day the vehicle could not start. Displaying a charging system error. Had to be towed to dealer for repairs with on 285 miles on the odometer. Upon review it appears the Jeep 4xe are die just driving down the road. Frightening dangerous.

Automatic transmission and/or transfer-case fluid loss and leakage from factory. Dealers unable to diagnose and fix. Can cause transmission components to be improperly lubricated, causing excessive heat, wear and in rare cases, fire.
