Equipment Problems of Jeep Wrangler - part 2

Abs control module cannot get the part so I would think this would be a safety issue because abs is not working. I know alot of other people who have a Jeep have the same proplem my part has been on back order for 4 months now. So I'm concerned about not having abs thank you.

Abs module not working and Jeep does not have a solution.

The airbag light is staying on, the horn is not working, inoperable steering wheel buttons (for switching between dashboard options like mileage, temperature, and information) as well as radio and cruise control buttons. Occasionally, all dashboard lights will come and and flicker, the dome light and all interior lights will flicker as well for a few seconds. I believe the Jeep is affected by the clockspring issue covered by s40 / NHTSA 16v-288. However, because my VIN is not connected with this recall, no manufacturer service center will address it.

Jeep, and they confirmed that my vehicle is unsafe to drive. Jeep’s only offered solution is a rental car, but they are requiring me to pay for it upfront and then seek reimbursement. I cannot afford to pay for a rental upfront, and Jeep has refused to cover the cost directly. This means I am being forced to drive a vehicle that Jeep has deemed unsafe because they will not provide a viable solution. I have called multiple times, and Jeep has continued to delay escalation while admitting my vehicle is a safety risk. I am filing this complaint because Jeep is failing to provide a timely or reasonable solution for a critical safety recall, leaving customers at risk. I need immediate assistance to hold Jeep accountable for failing to ensure my safety.

The instrument cluster screen that shows mileage, gas and temperature went blank while I was driving and was a distraction and safety issue.

I received a safety warning about my air bags specifically via my Jeep app on my iphone about 1 1/2 hours after I had been rear-ended in a motor vehicle accident. The rear-end impact pushed me into a van in front of me. The safety notice notified me to take my 2022 Jeep in to have the air bags checked. There were no prior warnings. I am concerned as to whether or not the air bags should have employed upon impact. My seatbelt did totally lock into place after impact, but the air bags did not activate. My vehicle is currently still being repaired at a collision service, per the direction of my auto insurance carrier.

Driving on interstate 35 south in fifth gear. There was a loud bang! and then we lost power. Barely made it off a tight overpass and we saw the smoke. The car was quickly on fires we got out as it started to engulf the Jeep with flames. It was a total and complete loss - and very dangerous.

This part is required to make the vehicle drivable. 68661147aa intake camshaft. The vehicle has been off road in a dealership since 2/26/2025. No part is available; we are told more than 10,000 are backordered. This is a daily driver. The vehicle is 2018 with only 78,000 miles. No known answer to why the part failed however with this many backordered parts it is clear there is an ongoing and significant issue related to this.

There is lack of information on how to file a complaint for a dealer not repairing a recall in a timely manner on this website. This complaint is in regards to the safety recall on my Jeep 4xe- recall 95b/NHTSA 24v-720. I made an appointment for this recall and took it to franklin Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram in franklin TN. They have had my Jeep for 2 days working on this recall. The letter I received said this would take 2 hours. They refused to provide me with a loaner/rental car and instead shuttled me home and left me without a vehicle for 2 days now. This is unacceptable.

I have a 2018 Jeep Wrangler jl series. I was driving down the highway, and the soft top latches sheared off, causing the top to rip back off the top of the Jeep. These clips fell down inside the car and sharp plastic pieces hit my sunglasses. The place where they sheared off was not at any boat locations or latching sections. This year was at the curve where it boats on to the soft top roof frame. The flat section where the sheer occurred was about 2 1/2 inches to 3 inches by only a quarter inch thick. This thickness was not substantial enough to hold the roof locked down tight. This could have created an accident as I was going down the highway at 60 miles an hour almost losing control of the vehicle. I have visited the dealer and called Jeep. Customer care they offer no support. I feel like this is a substantial safety issue that could cause someone to lose control of the vehicle and endanger themselves and others.

Engine oil cooler - this mopar factory part is sub par. It is made out of metal and plastic and placed in the hottest spot of the vehicle and fails at approx 50, 000 miles. After I have done some research at local garages, this item failure is very common. I think Jeep Chrysler Dodge needs to take action for a recall.

Vehicle is inoperable. Dealer says it is a bad abs module. 80+ codes were thrown, dashboard lights flickering on and off. Right brakes locked up on mechanic test drive. All abs functionality failed. The part is not being manufactured at this time. I have been told that there is no date when to expect the part's availability. This seems to be a common issue that should be recalled.

Vehicle propelled my wife through garage door and into garage. Automatically started moving on its own from a complete stop and would not respond to brakes. While slamming on brakes, vehicle propelled forward at full throttle while in ev mode. We are thankful no one was killed or injured. Caused significant damage to our home.

The dash instrument panel went black and wouldn’t turn back on. I did not know my speed, could not see my odometer, or my gas information. I brought my Jeep to the nearest dealership to diagnose and found that I need a new instrument cluster, this was back in February. Since then I have been waiting for this part from stellantis with rolling etas that have not been met. I just found recall information regarding this part with the year of my Jeep however I was told that my VIN is not part of this recall and I’m trying to find out why.

In 2020 and 2025, oil coolant housing cracked and failed. First incident happened on the way to an oil change. Certified mechanic found oil covering entire undercarriage and engine, and notified me this was a severe fire and safety hazard. Replaced with an oem housing from dealership. 2025, same failure. Found by another certified mechanic while researching check engine light. Replaced with a metal housing. Getting a p0303 and p0305 error code. Recorded over 300 misfires in 2 days. Replaced all spark plugs, coil packs and fuel injector in #5. No improvement in performance, continued coding. While returning to mechanic, had a strong burning smell and smoke coming out from under the hood. Coolant was covering entire engine compartment and undercarriage. Mechanic notified me the coolant was flowing through the engine and exiting out the #5 cylinder. Diagnosed failure of head gasket and engine. Driving vehicle causes smoke under hood, some in passenger compartment and strong burning smell. Recommended replacing engine as complete failure is imminent and is a safety and fire hazard.

On three occurrences I was driving my vehicle and it suddenly and abruptly stopped in the middle of traffic. The entire vehicle shut down and would not drive or move forward. It was terrifying as on one of the occasions I had my son with me and he was slammed back into the seat. We have reached out to the dealership who insists there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. It is a safety hazard and we are lucky that my family and no one else has been harmed or seriously injured because of these incidents. We don’t know what to do as Jeep is taking no responsibility and we are afraid to drive the vehicle as it is a ticking time bomb. There is a recall for this issue on different year models but the dealer will not acknowledge that there could be any problem. The service light has been on and off intermittently.

We are having continual issues with the visors on our Jeep where both the driver and passenger visors fall out of their mounting brackets. Not only do they impair vision, but the drivers one has caught in the steering wheel and almost caused a crash. Please note this vehicle is used solely for highway use and has never been off road. I spoke with the dealer and they said this is a known issue and recommended I purchase 3rd party aftermarket clips on amazon or alternatively they could replace the whole assembly for a significant fee.

I have a 2014 Jeep Wrangler 4-door. I have taken my Jeep to 4 mechanics who said I have rocker arms/ lifter issues. And, most Jeeps have this problem. I contacted fca, Jeep and other agencies with no avail. I am unable to drive my Jeep for fear something will happen.

Abs module failure and no replacement part available for this vehicle. After researching this issue, it should be a recall based on the highly excessive number of complaints and failures on this part. Has been ongoing for over 4 years and dealership says that Jeep Chrysler is aware of the issue and cannot get the part.

The components in the n28 / NHTSA 13v-234 recall did exactly what they were recalled for. My check engine light came on a few months back so I brought it to be diagnosed at a parts store and diagnostic scanner listed p codes for possible O2 sensor. I brought my 2013 Jeep Wrangler sport into a Jeep dealership(#1) in Friday, November 1st, 2024 and upon the first inspection, they found a couple of issues and printed an quote for $127. 33, I signed off on that quote. Then another hour or 2 passed by, they brought me a revised quote for over $600, which I was still okay with and signed off to have repaired. Then they offered to bring me home after hours of sitting in the lobby. The next day, I get a link to review the revised inspection and it was over $2400. The engine charge was over $1900 caused by the n28 recall. I asked them to just do the recall because I could not afford it the remaining. Upon looking into forums, documents & diagrams researching online specific to the n28 recall, I reached out to the manufacturer quite a few times by phone and email. I was working with someone who I thought would be helpful, since he suggested I call a different Jeep dealership (#2) service dept. And speak with a mechanic there. I spoke with a mechanic at #2 and sent #1's inspection report, and #2 dealership's mechanic confirmed the issues are connected & caused by the recall. The manufacture's contact (that I thought was more helpful than the ones I spoke with prior) was emailing me. I reported back to the contact on November 14th, 2024 what dealership #2 said and he never responded. I followed up for a response on November 21st, 2024. I still have no response as of January 30th, 2025.

Sun visors on driver and passage side pop off while driving. They are not held in position due to faulty parts and cause a hazard while driving because they swing uncontrollably while in motion. Not safe. Dealership has not helped with this hazard. Ive researched and this is a wider issue with other Jeep owners all experienced the same driving hazard.

Involuntary acceleration. I was coming to a stop at a major intersection, I was almost completely stopped when my Jeep began to rapidly accelerate. I pushed on the brakes as hard as I could but was unable to stop and ended up in a field on the opposite side of the road.

Vehicle stopped in the middle of the road. Would not restart. Had to be towed. What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? power inverter module how was your safety or the safety of others put at risk? yes. Car stopped in the middle of the road. No warning light until after has the problem been reproduced or confirmed by a dealer or independent service center? dealer confirmed power inverter module needs to be replaced has the vehicle or component been inspected by the manufacturer, police, insurance representatives or others? vehicle is at the dealership. Were there any warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem prior to the failure, and when did they first appear? no warning lights until after the incident. No other symptoms.

Factory aluminum steering box presents a severe safety hazard and should be immediately recalled due to its dangerous failure in cold and probably all temperatures. In low temperatures, the steering sticks and does not move freely, making normal driving extremely hazardous for both the driver and others on the road. While straight roads may not reveal the issue, attempting to turn on a curve becomes life-threatening—the wheel sticks, preventing necessary maneuvering or it darts me in another direction. Once it finally releases, it can lead to overcorrection, which is especially perilous on slick, icy, or snow-covered roads. This issue occurs without warning, at any speed, and significantly increases the risk of crashes. Fca is aware of the problem and has issued a technical service bulletin 08-074-20 rev. , but this is not a recall—meaning owners are left at risk. Die pretty much or risk your family dying and others or just get into that accident so the insurance companies screw you as always and you are left with nothing-those insurance adjusters don't work for we the people. This failure causes me a to have a collision daily and a run-off-road accident while traveling with my family on the interstate. The safety implications are undeniable, and action must be taken before lives are lost. This is not just a mechanical flaw—it’s a critical safety failure that demands an urgent recall. Then add in the notorious shimmy/shake onset of a death wobble. You are going the speed limit/interatate highway speeds and go over a bridge and it's over-you better pray! when driving a low speed 53mph if the vehicle hits a bump, it will start bouncing and the steering wheel shakes too much until I stop and then everything comes back to normal. That situation is very frequently and very dangerous, because it happened to me many times while driving on a highway with a heavy traffic behind me including semi trucks. If I die in my Jeep due to malfunctions from company my family can sue.

I was driving in the middle lane on i96 west when the dashboard lite up fully every light alerting me of every possible thing that needs attention known to man. This isn’t the first time this has happened but it is was the first time on the highway. I attempted to move the steering wheel which wasn’t working-I’m guessing the power steering wasn’t working, I slowly moved to the far right lane and managed to exit the freeway actually “‘manhandling” the steering wheel to make the vehicle turn in either direction. Needless to say I was beyond scared of what was gonna happen next. I made it to a grocery store parking lot and called for towing back to the dealer. This vehicle was just at the dealer the previous week for the dashboard lighting up in the same way but I didn’t drive it anywhere since I couldn’t turn the wheel that time either. The dealer told me it was a fluke and sent me on my way. This vehicle is two yrs old and has only been serviced by the dealer for oil changes and tire rotations. After doing some research, I’ve read that other owners of Jeep Wranglers have had similar problems going as far back as 2018! I can’t possibly be the only to report this issue. If I lost control of the vehicle due to power steering issues and sensor/computer failures what would happen to me? would I be dead? would I kill other people on the road? how would I ever be able to prove this is the vehicle and not me? this is an issue that needs to be looked at deeper. My vehicle is still at the dealership. It’s only two yrs old and has 40,000 miles. I need someone to look into this problem before something horrible happens to someone. Unfortunately my daughter also has a Jeep Wrangler and I hope she can stay calm if something like this happens to her on the freeway.

I went to crowley dealership in bristol CT for the 95b recall fix. I do not believe it was done correctly as my Jeep had not been driven at all. I have a picture of the mileage upon drop off and it matched the mileage at pickup. Jeep and mopar are also not recognizing the recall as being fixed and still shows it as active. It was also strange that I received a call to come get a loaner vehicle as my Jeep would not be ready (drop off Sunday night, call received for rental Tuesday afternoon) and as I pulled into the parking lot, I received a voicemail my Jeep was in fact ready for pickup. I am worried this was done incorrectly and being [xxx] with other children / people constantly in my car, I am worried for our safety.

My name is [xxx] . I am part of the the Jeep 4xe community. I have been heavily invested in the 4xe community from the very beginning. I have the first customer owned Wrangler 4xe, I run a youtube channel with over 9,000 subscribers and a facebook group with over 23,000 members. I have several concerns about the 4xe and the way Jeep is possibly mishandling safety issues. I would like to open a dialog with someone at the NHTSA to voice some of these concerns. There has been a lingering battery fire issue that Jeep has now addressed with two recalls. Stories of dealership mishandling are very common. We know if one Wrangler 4xe fire that has happened after the most recent 95b recall. There is also a high failure rate of a component that is called the electric coolant heater. This item is needed for defrost functionality when the vehicle is in electric mode. Many of us in the 4xe community have come to believe that Jeep should offer highly extended or lifetime warranties on this part since it is safety related and has been so problematic. I would like to assemble a team of 4xe owners to consult with the NHTSA on the issues we are seeing. We do not believe Jeep is handling these issues in a manner that is putting the customer safety first and would like to see how we can work together to protect the owners.

On [xxx] my 2022 Jeep Wrangler hybrid was parked in my carport. Around [xxx] I started smelling something burning so got up to check the house and then went to the garage to check our cars. On checking the Jeep I noticed that the inside of the cabin was filling with smoke. I immediately called 911 and as I was on the phone with them the Jeep spontaneously burst into flames on the inside. The fire department arrived shortly after. They began flooding the Jeep with water and had to drag it out of our car port. Once they had it away from the house the continued to flush it with water and also placed a fire retardant blanket over the top of it to contain the fire. It continued to burn for several more hours until a tow truck arrived to take it to a yard. The fire truck had to follow the tow as the car was still smoldering as they loaded it. According to the fire marshals' initial assessment he believed the fire was started from the Jeeps lithium ion battery. * it is believed to be the lithium ion battery. It has a recall and I had the recall scheduled for 1/9/2025 but it caught fire on [xxx]. The Jeep is with progressive my insurance company and could possibly be inspected at request. * luckily we caught it before it was fully engulfed. Jeep did emit noxious fumes while it was on fire and being put out. Our neighbor had to evacuate because of the fumes possibly entering her house. * it has been confirmed by progressive and they have placed Jeep on notice. * it was inspected by the ins CO. They are awaiting on the inspector from Jeep. * there were no warning or indications prior to this happening. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S.

Metal chunks found in engine oil, and as were not metal powder swirl, shavings, or specs, possibly from bottom engine crankshaft. At the crank pulley, with the belt off, I could feel nudge by hand from the middle, for an engine component with max specified endplay 0. 012 inches, or fraction of a millimeter. An existing manufacturer recall, and not a safety recall, for this 2021 Jeep Wrangler 2. 0l turbo is inspection for loose bolts for water pump inlet. This vehicle will not be available for inspection requests, because it is still not, and waiting to be, diagnosed as the dealer could not necessarily hear an engine issue. I have heard it knock, like a rumbling v8 and turbo whined, and recently I decided to strain the old and knocking oil that I kept and discovered metal. There was something wrong all along. Top engine, with good gas mileage, has been fine. The safety concern to this vehicle is metal in oil to possibly enter top engine and create sudden or instant engine seizure while in operation. The safety of driver or others could be at risk. The safety concern to this vehicle is also the detioration of engine components since they appear under the sole discretion of this motorized vehicle. This means, no other factor known to the driver of this vehicle by which rate of engine detioration has occurred. An indicating observation to be made into this vehicle's safety is the endplay of the crankshaft. This vehicle is nearly 97,000 miles odometer. The endplay seems very excessive, causing me to speculate on original factory fitment and installation during assembly. What determinations into a non-safety recall of loose water pump bolts might emerge as consideration into engine interior deterioration, as rate of this deterioration appear under sole vehicle discretion and remain unknown to the driver. Insufficient cooling is known to cause buildup in any engine, this vehicle has burped coolant air. No warning lights in the dash was seen.

I have been having random issues with my backup camera on my vehicle and noticed the recall only includes 2024 yrs. I have reported this to my dealership as early as right after purchase in Dec of 2021. I have had the vehicle for 3yrs and it the back up camera stops working randomly at minimum once a month and probably more often than that. My dealership every time I take in for service cant find any issues but now that there is a recall I would like to be included in it.

After performing the 95b recall, within 20-30 miles of driving the cel came on. After powering off and back on the “service charging system” alert displayed on the dash. The vehicle seemed drivable however, and I proceeded to drive it to the dealership two days later which is about 4 miles away. In multiple instances when trying to accelerate from a stop the vehicle would not accelerate to more than 3-4 mph for multiple seconds leaving me stranded pulling out across traffic in the middle of an intersection waiting on the car to accelerate to a normal speed. Regardless of how much the accelerator was pressed the vehicle just rolled forward very, very slowly. Eventually, the vehicle lurched forward violently. Within this 3-4 mile drive this happened 3 times. The car remained jerky and unpredictable. I was fortunate to be driving at a low traffic time and made sure to allow extra space due to feeling the car acting slow after the cel appeared. Had I treated it normally during normal commute hours, I would have been hit by oncoming traffic. I left the vehicle at the dealership and am waiting on response.

Jeep caught on fire while it was parked in the driveway there as a ecall on the battery as it s a 4xe I had an appointment with the Jeep dealer on the 16th of December and they cancelled it few days before the scheduled appointment they said they didnt have any loaners as it was a 2 day job they would call to reschedule they did not and it blew up on the 27th of December.

I had the 95b battery recall performed at my Jeep dealer and 2 days later I had a sudden loss of power and and sudden breakdown of the vehicle requiring towing to the Jeep dealer (orlando Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram in orlando, FL 4101 w colonial dr, orlando, FL 32808 phone: (407) 299-1120) on [xxx]. They have not been able to give us any answers other than the hybrid battery needs replacement and over 2 weeks later they are giving us no answers or solutions. Information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u. S. C. 552(b)(6).

I took my Jeep into the dealer for my 4xe 95b recall. They did not show me pass or fail my car went in on no battery 2 1/2 hrs later they said my car was done. I do not believe they completed the drive cycle test to show pass or fail my odometer reading was only a few miles more then when I dropped it off and no battery charge gas gage hadn't moved. There is no way they did a complete drive cycle. They didn't charge it to over 75% they did not drive it until it was a warm enough temp to run the test. I got nothing but a receipt stating recall software update was done and drive test done. Nothing about if it passed or failed. And under my Jeep app they put miscellaneous vehicle inspections. The recall still shows on my car.
