Wheel Rim Problems of Jeep Wrangler

The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while stopped at a stop light, he depressed the accelerator pedal to drive when all 5-wheel studs inadvertently snapped off the rear passenger’s side wheel. The rim fractured and the tire was sliced and detached from the rim. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where the cause of the failure could not be determined. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 150,000.

Our 2012 Jeep Wrangler unlimited has stock wheels and rims, in fact it has the smallest stock wheels and rims offered by the manufacturer. We have not "upsized" our wheels and rims with aftermarket products. The metal "strap" (that's what they call it at the dealer) on the tailgate that keeps it from swinging wide open broke, and when it broke it swung open and broke the tail light lens and housing. The dealer replaced it under warranty, and within a week it broke a second time. The dealer replaced it a second time. Again, within a week, it broke for a third time. It was replaced under warranty again. This was just yesterday. The dealer says it replaces these all the time, at least one a week. This is a faulty part that should be recalled. I have looked on Jeep Wrangler forums and lots of people have this problem, and lots of people have it happen multiple times.

Purchased a used 2004 Jeep Wrangler rubicon with 11000 miles on the odometer, after driving the vehicle for several months I noticed that the odometer seamed to be reading slow, so I had the odometer checked by a state trooper and found out that at 45 mph I was only moving at 40 mph. With further investigation I found that the tires and rims are not the right size for the vehicle. The tires that where on the Jeep when I purchased it are p225/75r15, the manufacturer recommends lt245/75r16, is this vehicle safe to drive? the dealership where I purchased the Jeep from refuses to make it right. Would the 11000 miles on the odometer be right or could it be more?.
