Consumer Description

I RECENTLY HAD A CHANGE OIL INDICATOR GO OFF, EARLIER THAN ANTICIPATED. WHILE PERFORMING THE OIL CHANGE, I REALIZED THERE WAS OIL ALL OVER THE BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE, ESPECIALLY ON THE BOTTOM OF THE TRANSMISSION. I CLEANED UP AND PERFORMED THE OIL CHANGE. TWO DAYS LATER THE SAME THING. FRESH OIL EVERYWHERE. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH AND A TRIP TO THE DEALER, THE CONCLUSION WAS A BAD OIL FILTER ADAPTER ASSEMBLY. THIS IS BEYOND COMMON ON A 2014 WRANGLER. INSANE THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ON THIS PART. COME ON JEEP, GET IT TOGETHER AND TAKE RESPONSIBILITY. I LOVE MY JEEP. BUT RIGHT IS RIGHT. THIS IS BEYOND A BIG FIRE CONCERN!!!!
