Consumer Description
My recently purchased Jeep Wrangler (certified pre-owned) [XXX] was included in the NHTSA recall #23V-116 which can result in a fire arising from a fractured clutch plate. Due to this significant safety risk, FCA has prohibited all dealers from selling manual transmission Wranglers models from 2018 to 2023. Therefore, it then comes as a total surprise that the dealer which sold the vehicle as Certified Pre-Owned declined to take the SUV back despite being still within warranty, driven for less than 3.000 miles and still with an opened unfixed safety recall. Attempting to remediate the situation I offered them the option of having the vehicle repaired - at their cost - with quality aftermarket parts, such as the CenterForce clutch assembly kit for Jeeps, but was also denied. INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)
