Consumer Description

BOUGHT JEEP NEW ON 12/2012. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON LAST WEEK, TOOK IT TO AUTO PARTS STORE TO HAVE IT HOOKED UP TO COMPUTER AND IT READ CYLINDER 4 MISFIRING. CALLED JEEP DEALER AND BROUGHT IT IN FOR SERVICE, THEY CALLED AND SAID IT WAS THE CYLINDER HEAD AND WILL REPLACE. THIS MAKES ME VERY CONCERNED TO SEE SO MANY OTHERS HAVING SIMILAR PROBLEMS. WASN'T EVEN GIVEN A LOANER CAR WHILE REPAIR WAS DONE BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE THE EXTENDED WARRANTY. I ONLY HAVE 15,000 MILES ON CAR, SHOULDN'T NEED EXTENDED WARRANTY!! MAYBE JEEP IS TRYING TO TELL US SOMETHING. *TR
