2012 JEEP WRANGLER Power Train Problems

My Oil pump and oil sensor keep going out every 4,000 miles. I have already had to replace it once. I don’t want to have to do it again. Clearly something is causing this issue.

Report from diagnostic service 1-9-2023 cylinder head - has premature failure of valve guides and cylinder head replacement is required for repair. Yes, Jeep extended the warranty but if your vehicle did not show problems they would not fix it, but they did learn and knew at the point the seriousness of the problem and put an end date on the fix. Our vehicle outlasted their warranty by 30,000 but now is undrivable. Before anything serious happens as the driver drives on longer drives we have grounded the vehicle.

Engine Stalls Randomly while Driving. Will crank over several times and over approx 10-15 min. of cranking(Say every 3-5min) vehicle will and will restart. No check engine lights and no warning. The loss of power can be dangerous since brake and steering assist require engine to be running. Vehicle will be fine for several days local commute and problem will recur without warning, usually on longer commute. Vehicle is unsafe and unpredictable.

The vehicle would take a minute to click into gear when at a light and also when driving on the freeway, the vehicle will only go up to a certain speed (40mph) and would not switch gears (automatic) after that, the RPMs just kept going higher until I had to pull over.

While driving the car randomly stalls. I lose power steering and braking. The car will not restart. This issue has been recorded by the dealer. The vehicle was last inspected on July 5th. I have been issued a Jeep Care case manager, case # 82963828. There are no warnings, while driving makes a left-hand turn the car just stalls!

Starting out at a stop light, engaging the clutch to start moving, I depressed the clutch to shift into second gear while making a turn, the vehicle stalls, losing all power.

Starting out at a stop sign. engaging the clutch to start moving, while shifting into 2nd gear while turning the vehicle stalls. Losing all power steer and brakes. I try to re-start the car i get a crank no-start scenario. Wait 3-5 min, retry starting the vehicle starts.

While driving making a turn, shifting from 1st to 2nd gear, and vehicle stalls losing all power. The vehicle has been to the deal multiple times and the issue can not be duplicated. The vehicle has been inspected multiple times and there are no known issues. No-fault codes are thrown. I stalled in the middle of a busy intersection, with my children in the car. I had to push the vehicle to safety!

While driving making a turn, shifting from 1st to 2nd gear, and vehicle stalls losing all power. I had a crank no-start scenario! The vehicle has been to the deal multiple times and the issue can not be duplicated. The vehicle has been inspected multiple times and there are no known issues. No-fault codes are thrown. I was able to cost to a safe location, and wait. after 3-5 min the vehicle restarted.

While driving the car stalled. Loss of power steering and braking. I was able to coast to a safe location. I tried to restart, but Crank- No Start.

While driving making a left-hand turn, crossing an intersection the vehicle stalled. Lossing all power, no power stirring or breaks. When trying to re-start vehicle will not re-start.

While crossing an intersection the vehicle stalled for no reason. No Codes were posted. Crank No Start, waited 10 min, and the vehicle started. Drove to the dealer to resolve. Dealer has no known reason for stalling while driving

Random Stalling while driving, making a left-hand turn. While entering an intersection, the vehicle stalled losing all power. Was able to coast to a safe spot. Waited 15 min, the vehicle started. No check engine light.

Oil filter housing is cracked and leaking oil. Potential fire hazard, pooling of oil on engine block. Seems to be a widespread problem.

The power steering line has rubbed a hole in the transmission line causing a loss of flammable transmission fluid onto the hot exhaust and underside of vehicle and the transmission isn't shifting properly. Transmission fluid could ignite on the hot exhaust setting the jeep on fire while driving. The dealer refused to work on my jeep because of some modifications that do not affect the Transmission lines or power steering lines in any way to cause this issue. No warning lights came on, I had noticed the lines rubbing about a month and a half prior which is when the dealer said there's nothing they can do they didn't even look at it.

MY JEEP IS NOW STALLING MID DRIVE WHEN I TURN MY WHEEL. 3 TIMES IT'S HAPPENED WHILE TURNING FROM A STOP LIGHT AND ONCOMING TRAFFIC HAD TO STOP AND GO AROUND ME. I'VE HAD 2 MECHANICS LOOK AT IT AND NEITHER OF THEM CAN FIND AN ISSUE. RPMS GO TO ZERO AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP. THE ONLY WAY TO RESET IT IS TO PUT IT IN PARK, TURN THE CAR OFF THEN BACK ON. OUTSIDE OF THOSE 3 TIMES IT'S HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING AND TURNING ONTO A STREET OR INTO A PARKING LOT - THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON TO WHAT WILL TRIGGER IT. I'VE READ QUITE A FEW FORUMS WHERE THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE LOOKED INTO IMMEDIATELY!! I WENT FROM FEELING CAREFREE IN MY JEEP TO KEEPING BOTH OF MY HANDS...

ENGINEERING DEFECT I HAD TO REPLACE THE OIL PAN ON THE TRANSMISSION I FOUND THAT THE CONDENSATE FROM THE AIR CONDITION WAS DRAINING ON TOP OF THE TRANSMISSION AND RUNNING DOWN TO THE CORNER OF THE OIL PAN AND ROTTING THE PAN OUT. WILL SEND PICTURES I SENT THIS COMPLAINT IN BEFORE BUT DID NOT HEAR FROM YOU.

ENGINEERING DEFECT OIL PAN ON TRANSMISSION LEAKING HAD PAN REPLACED AT DEALER THEY CLAIMED IT WAS NOT UNDER WARRANTY DO TO RUST. I FOUND DRAIN FROM A/C DRAINS ON TOP OF TRANSMISSION ONTO OIL PAN WHICH RUSTS OUT PAN AS IN PICTURES WATER STAIN ON TRANSMISSION AND PAN FROM A/C CONDENSATE CAR HAS 29,000 MILES I HAVE MORE PICTURES IF NEEDED

MY JEEP WRANGLER IS IN THE DEALER TODAY THE CAR HAS 29,000 MILES THE TRANSMISSION DRAIN PAN IS LEAKING THEY CLAIM IT IS FROM RUST THE PAN MAY BE WHITE METAL OR ALUMINUM I ASKED THE PARTS PERSON AT THE DEALER EARLIER IF THEY SOLD A LOT OF PANS HE SAID YES I CHECKED THE FORUM OTHER PEOPLE WITH THE SAME YEAR AND LOW MILEAGE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM I FEEL THE PANS MAY BE THE WRONG MATERIAL FOR THE OIL BEING USED. AND MAY NEED A RECALL ON THE PANS. *TR

OIL HOUSING CRACKED DURING ROUTINE OIL CHANGE, DUE TO AN INTEGRAL PART BEING PLASTIC. ANY OIL CHANGE COULD RESULT IN AN INSTANT $600-$1,000 EXPENSE FOR THE CONSUMER. IT IMPOSSIBLE FOR THE CONSUMER TO PROVE THE BROKEN PART WAS DUE TO OIL CHANGE NEGLIGENCE OR OVER-TIGHTENING. THE COST IS ENTIRELY LEFT ON THE CONSUMER EVEN IF ALL PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE WORK IS COMPLETE. THIS HAS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE AT FIAT CHRYSLER/JEEP, AND MUST BE ADDRESSED BY A RECALL. I REPLACED THE PART, FOR APPROXIMATELY $600, WITH THE SAME PART. THIS COULD EASILY HAPPEN AGAIN AT MY NEXT OIL CHANGE, AND EVERY OIL CHANGE THEREAFTER. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO GUESS IF THERE WILL BE A $600 REPAIR EVERY TIME I CHANGE MY OIL. *TR

BEGINNING OF FEB., LOST POWER ON FREEWAY. WENT FROM 65 TO 40 MPH AND COULD NOT ACCELERATE. ENGINE AND TRACTION LIGHTS CAME ON. EXITED THE FWY AND DROVE TO DEALER WHERE I WAS TURNED AWAY DUE TO HIGH VOLUME. LEFT MY JEEP AT THE DEALER THE FOLLOWING DAY WITH THIS ISSUE AND TO CORRECT CAMPAIGN #V51 RECALL. THE ENGINE LIGHT WASN'T LIT ANYMORE AND DEALER COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT SO I PICKED IT UP. COUPLE OF WEEKS LATER, I FAILED THE SMOG CHECK I NEED TO REGISTER MY JEEP, AND AN ENGINE CODE SHOWED UP, P0394. I TOOK IT TO OTHER PLACES WHERE THE SAME CODE SHOWED UP AND WAS RECOMMENDED TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALER. GOING DOWNHILL, MY FATHER EXPERIENCED THE SAME WHILE DRIVING MY JEEP. BEGINNING OF MARCH, OMW TO THE DEALER ON THE FWY, I LOST POWER AGAIN AND THE ENGINE AND TRACTION...

BEGAN LEAKING SMALL AMOUNT OF OIL UNDER JEEP AFTER USE. TOOK TO HAVE ISSUE INVESTIGATED. MECHANIC FOUND THE INTAKE GASKET ON REAR OF INTAKE CAUSING THE ISSUE. ESTIMATED COST TO FIX $600+ THIS APPEARS TO BE A COMMON ISSUE FOR THIS JEEP, THUS JEEP HAS NEVER BEEN OFF ROAD AND THIS SHOULD NOT HAVE OCCURRED. IT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER DRIVE TRAIN WARRENTY OR A RECALL AS THIS A MANUFACTURER ISSUE.

I LOVE MY JEEP, BUT FOR THE PAST YEAR WE HAVE HAD A LOVE HATE RELATIONSHIP. TODAY I RECEIVED A LETTER INDICATING THAT THE POWER CONTROL MODULE MIGHT NEED REPROGRAMMING. INTERESTING ENOUGH THIS WENT BAD ON MY 2012 JEEP A YEAR AGO. SHORTLY THEREAFTER MY ENGINE FAILED. NOW THAT I SEE THERE WAS AN ISSUE WITH THE PCM NEEDING REPROGRAMMED IT MADE SENSE WHY A JEEP WITH BARELY 90,000 MILES WOULD HAVE AN ENGINE THAT FAILED, ESPECIALLY CONSIDERING THAT I WAS NEVER ROUGH WITH IT, AND ALWAYS GAVE IT APPROPRIATE OIL CHANGES. IT TOOK ME THE BETTER PART OF A YEAR TO PAY OFF THE COST OF THE NEW ENGINE, AND WHEN YOU'VE GOT A CAR THIS NEW, THERE REALLY ISN'T A GOOD OPTION BESIDES KNUCKLING DOWN AND PAYING FOR THE FIX. I WOULD LOVE TO LOVE MY JEEP AGAIN. WHEN THIS HAPPENED IT WAS VERY COLD OUTSIDE, MY JEEP...

WHEN PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE FROM A STOPPED POSITION THE ENGINE WILL OFTEN DIE. THIS HAPPENS MORE WHEN THE BRAKE IS APPLIED HARD AND IF THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED SHARPLY. THIS HAS HAPPENED MANY TIMES IN THE PAST 2 MONTHS.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS COME ON AT 80,000 MILES 1.20.2019. I WAS TOLD IT IS THE CLOCKSPRING. 2 MONTHS AGO MY WA580(NAG1) TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO SHIFT ITSELF GOING UPHILL TRYING TO FIND THE RIGHT GEAR. I WAS TOLD IT WAS THE VALVEBIDY WHICH IS NOT UNDER WARRANTY EVEN THOUGH THE SAME PART WAS REPLACED AT 35,000 MILES.

CYLINDER MISFIRE LESS THAN 20K, HEAT CHRONICALLY DID NOT WORK, BROUGHT TO DEALER NUMEROUS TIMES FOR NO HEAT, TICKING SOUND COMING FROM MOTOR. CITY DRIVEN VEHICLE. MAJOR ENGINE ISSUE AT 85K DEALER TELLING ME NOT A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM WITH THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE. EXTENDED WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER ENGINE ISSUES. JEEP OVER HEATING, NO HEAT, REPLACED RADIATOR TWICE AT MY OWN EXPENSE.

GAS TANK CRACK LEAKS FUMES, ALSO THE TRANSMISSION POPS OUT WHILE DRIVING AND DEALERSHIP WOULD NOT FIX UNDER WARRANTY BECAUSE THEY SAID IT DIDN'T HAPPEN WHEN REPAIRMAN TEST DROVE IT. NOW ITS COMPLETELY BLOWN OUT DOES NOT WORK HAS 36,700. MILES ON IT 700 MILES PAST WARRANTY AND ONE YEAR PASS WARRANTY. THESE ARE TWO DEFECTIVE PARTS AND EITHER COULD RUN YOU OFF THE ROAD AND GAS LEAK BLOW UP YOUR CAR. MY GUESS IS THESE PARTS ARE MADE IN CHINA. WE ALL HAVE TO PAY FOR THIS WITH OUR SAFETY AND OUR LIVES IN SOME CASES.

ON JAN 8TH I WAS HEADING HOME ON UNION ROAD IN THE MIDDLE OF RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC. A CAR INFRONT OF ME DECIDED TO TURN LEFT SO I HAD TO STOP WHEN I PROCEEDED TO GO AROUND HIM I HEARD A LOUD BANG AND MY JEEP STOPPED DEAD. WHEN I TRIED TO PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE, REVERSE, OR NEUTRAL THE JEEP DIDN'T MOVE. HAD I HAVE BEEN GOING THE SPEED LIMIT OR GOT ON THE THURWAY IN WHICH WAS 200 FT AWAY WHERE I WAS HEADED TO GO HOME MY JEEP WOULD HAVE FLIPPED FROM THE SUDDEN LOCK UP OF MY WHEELS. I COULD HAVE DIED. THERE WAS NO WARNINGS, NOISES, ECT. IT JUST SNAPPED. NOT ONLY THE 1500 DOLLAR REPAIR THE TECHNICIAN TOLD ME THAT THERE HAD TO BE A DEFECT IN THE DIFFERENTIAL. I WOULD LIKE JEEP TO CONTACT ME [XXX] ON THIS MATTER I FEEL THAT...

ENGINE DASH LIGHTS ABS, TRACTION CONTROL AND ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON THEN OFF THEN BACK ON WILL IN MOTION. ALSO WHILE IN MOTION, AN RPM SURGE OCCURRED WHICH ALMOST CAUSED ME TO REAR END THE CAR IN FRONT OF ME. THIS SURGE HAS OCCURRED TWICE IN THE LAST DAY SO HAVE PARKED THE VEHICLE FOR FEAR OF HAVING AN ACCIDENT THAT COULD RESULT IN BODILY HARM.

WHEN DRIVING AND ACCELERATE TO AROUND 3500 TO 5000 RPM RANDOMLY THE JEEP STALLS AND DOESN'T ACCELERATE NORE PASSES 2500 RPMS. VERY DANGEROUS WHEN DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY. I CLEARED THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AROUND 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. OBD CODE WAS P06DD

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND HILL ASSIST ALWAYS LIT. DEALER CONSTANTLY RESETTING AND I WAS REPEATEDLY TOLD NOT TO WORRY AS IT IS PROBABLY "BAD GASOLINE." NOW, NO ACCELERATION AND IS MORE PRONOUNCED WHEN ON AN INCLINE IE HIGHWAY ENTRANCE RAMP. PRESENTLY, ONE WEEK INTO DIAGNOSTICS AND REPAIRS WITH PRESENT DIAGNOSIS BEING "PROBABLY" CAM SHAFT PHASERS. IMPORTANT TO NOTE ENGINE REPAIRS PREVIOUSLY DONE ONE MONTH OF OWNERSHIP ON BRAND NEW VEHICLE. IN ADDITION, ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON WHILE IN WARRANTY BUT TOLD NOT TO WORRY. NOW, ALMOST COMPLETE ENGINE REBUILD. JEEP WILL NOT ASSIST EVEN THOUGH ENGINE LIGHT HAS BEEN ON AND REPORTED TO DEALER (AND DOCUMENTED) WHILE IN WARRANTY. VEHICLE PURCHASED BRAND NEW, NEVER USED "FOUR WHEELING" OR UTILIZED TO TOW. MILEAGE REFLECTS ~ HIGHWAY TRAVEL. RELIGIOUSLY MAINTAINED THROUGH DEALERSHIP.

PARKING BREAK WILL NOT HOLD. HAVE HAD THE PARKING BREAK SHOES REPLACED AND ADJUSTED BUT STILL WILL ROLL SLOWLY IF NOT ON A FLAT SURFACE. MINE HAS A MANUEL TRANSMISSION SO I HAVE TO LEAVE IT IN GEAR TO KEEP IT FROM ROLLING. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH SEVERAL OTHER JEEP OWNERS AND THEY SAY THIS IS A COMMON JEEP PROBLEM BUT I FILL LIKE THIS SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER A RECALL. THE CLUTCH ALSO IS IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT AFTER ONLY 74,000 MILES OF DRIVING. HAS BEEN LIKE THIS SINCE I BOUGHT IT IN APRIL 2017.

THE LEFT REAR BRAKE CALIPER ENGAGES RANDOMLY. WHEN ENGAGED THE VEHICLE IS SLOWED SOMEWHAT. SOMETIMES THERE WILL BE COMING OFF THE DISC PADS. I HAVE NOTICED THAT I CAN CLEAR THE CONDITION BY FOLLOWING THE HILL START ASSIST ON/OFF PROCEDURE. A MECHANIC TOLD ME THIS IS A COMPUTER FAILURE AND HE CAN FIX IT FOR $1300. I THINK IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V234000 (POWER TRAIN , STEERING), 14V631000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM , VISIBILITY), AND 16V352000 (AIR BAGS) HOWEVER, THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIRS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

3RD GEAR DROPS INTO 4TH GEAR VERY EASILY AT TIMES WHEN STANDING STILL. IN 4WD LOW IF YOU THINK YOU IN NEUTRAL BUT ARE IN 4TH GEAR WHEN RELEASING THE CLUTCH WHICH MAKES THE VEHICLE DRIVE FORWARD. THIS COULD BE LIFE THREATENING.

12 JKRU 52,000 MILES. IT FIRST HAPPENED AT NIGHT WHILE WIFE WAS DRIVING ON INTERSTATE JEEP WENT CRAZY MODE ALL LIGHTS IN CLUSTER ILLUMINATED WARNING LIGHTS FLASHING AND WITH HOT OIL MSG, WARNING DINGS GOING OFF, HEARD ELECTRIC FAN RUNNING . IT SEEMED THAT NOTHING WAS CONTROLLABLE, AUTO TRANS WENT INTO AND WOULD NOT SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR. SCARED THE HELL OUT OF MY WIFE. GOT HOME AFTER SHUT OFF I TRIED TO RESTART BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. I DISCONNECTED BATTERY TO RESET CPU THAT DID NOT WORK. I STOPPED BY AUTO ZONE TO GET CODES SCANNED . THEY TOLD ME EVERY SYSTEM WAS REPORTING FAILURE AND NEEDS TO GO TO DEALER. AFTER RESTART EVERY THING WAS NORMAL. AFTER 100 YARDS DOWN THE STREET IT ALL HAPPENED AGAIN. PULLED INTO STORE PARKING LOT, TURNED JEEP OFF AND WOULD NOT RESTART TILL 4TH TRY. DROVE IT STRAIT TO DEALER IN FIRST...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE PARKED, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO RESTART WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 64,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. ....UPDATED 12/11/15 *BF THE CONSUMER STATED THE PROBLEM WAS SOMETHING DIFFERENT. UPDATED 01/28/16.*JB

MY 2012 JEEP WRANGLER WAS BEING DRIVEN AT 40MPH WHEN THE CLUTCH INADVERTENTLY WENT OUT. I AM CONCERNED THAT THERE MIGHT BE A GREATER PROBLEM RELATED TO THE FLYWHEEL AND THE RELATED CLUTCH ASSEMBLY OF THESE FACTORY PARTS ON THIS VEHICLE. I ONLY USE THIS VEHICLE TO COMMUTE IN THE CITY AND MY DRIVING HABITS ARE MILD. I DO NOT USE THIS VEHICLE OFF-ROAD AND I LIVE IN THE STATE OF FLORIDA WHICH IS INCREDIBLY FLAT. THE CLUTCH AND SURROUNDING ASSEMBLY SHOULD NOT DEFECT AT 40K MILES.

FIRST THING THAT HAPPENED WITH THIS VEHICLE WHILE DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY THE AIR CONDITION AND DEFOGGER FOR THE WINSHIELD WENT OUT, WINSHIELD FOGGED UP COULD NOT SEE ON A RAINY FOGGY NIGHT WHEN I HAD TO OPEN ALL WINDOWS FOR AIR TO TAKE MIST OFF WINSHIELD.SECOND INCIDENT WHEN I PULLED INTO A SERVICE AREA TO CHECK THE A/C THE VEHICLE ABOVE WAS LOCKED IN PARK WHEN SUDDENLY THE VEHICLE STARTED GOING IN REVERSE WITH ENGINE RUNNING ALMOST RUNNING OVER MY BROTHER WHO WAS IN REAR OF VEHICLE.

APPEARS THAT DURING WINTER MONTHS/COLD WEATHER THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION WILL JUMP OUT OF GEAR. IT HAPPENS DURING SUDDEN JARS TO VEHICLE, EXAMPLES WOULD BE RAILROAD TRACKS AND POT HOLES. ALSO IT WILL JUMP OUT OF GEAR DURING HEAVY ACCELERATION.

PURCHASE DATE JEEP 7/2014 EAST HILLS CHRYSLER EAST HILLS NY. UPON DRIVING THE VEHICLE HOME. I NOTICED IT HAD THE REAR SEAT BELT RIPPED OUT, PARKING BRAKE WAS DEFECTIVE AND A NAIL IN RIGHT PASSENGER SIDE TIRE. I BROUGHT THE VEHICLE BACK AND STATED "HOW WAS VEHICLE PAST A SAFETY INSPECTION"? THEIR WAS RESPONSE WAS THE "SORRY".THE CAR WAS ADVERTISED A PRE-CERTIFIED BASED ON THE A 100 POINT INSPECTION, WHICH IT NEVER HAD. THEY REPLACED THE SEAT BELT THAT NIGHT. 5/4/2015, DRIVING HOME THE REAL DIFFERENTIAL FAILED (MILES 48806) BOTH FRONT AND REAR WERE LEAKING. I WAS DRIVING AT RATE 50 MPH. THE CHAIN OF EVENTS OF THE FAILURE AFFECTED THE FLANGE AND YOLK OFF THE DRIVE SHAFT. I TOOK IT BACK TO EAST HILLS CHRYSLER. THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY COVERED THIS REPAIR HOWEVER, DURING THE FAILURE, I COULD NOT SHIFT TO SLOW THE VEHICLE, I HAD A LOT OF...

I HAVE HAD AT LEAST 100 TIMES WHERE MY JEEP HAS STALLED AND JUST STOPPED RUNNING. IT HAS HAPPENED WHEN I HAVE SLOWED DOWN, AND HAS STOPPED IN INTERSECTIONS. IT HAS STOPPED WHEN STARTING FROM A STOP ETC. I HAVE HAD NUMEROUS MANUAL TRANSMISSION CARS AND THIS HAS NEVER HAPPENED. IT SCARES ME , AND MAKES ME FEAR FOR MY LIFE. I HAVE CHANGED THE WAY I DRIVE BECAUSE OF IT, WITH THE FEAR OF WORRYING MY JEEP WILL JUST STOP RUNNING , WHEN I PULL OUT INTO TRAFFIC. I HAVE HAD THE SWITCHES IN THE CAR NOT WORK, AND FUNCTION ERRATICALLY. LIGHTS STAY ON, WHEN TURNED OFF, AFTER TURNING THEM OFF NUMEROUS TIMES, THEY FINALLY GO OUT. I HAVE HAD MY BREAKS RESPOND ODDLY, AND GET WEAK. I HAVE HAD THE HEATER NOT COME ON, THEN TURN SWITCH AGAIN AND IT WORKS. HAVE HAD DEFROST SOME ON WHEN DEFROST...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED TO 90 MPH. THE CONTACT HAD TO SHIFT INTO NEUTRAL IN ORDER TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.

THE (RHD) VEHICLE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL (SKID) LIGHT COME ON REGULARLY WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON DRY ROADS AND WHEN THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT IS ON IT CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO SLOW SPEED. WHEN DRIVING OVER 40 MPH, IT TAKES A WHILE TO GAIN SPEED AND IF YOU LET OFF GAS IT JERKS LIKE YOU ARE DRIVING A STANDARD TRANSMISSION. I RECENTLY HAD THE POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE REPLACED COSTING MYSELF OVER $600 AND IT STILL DOES THE SAME THING. I HAVE MADE A STOP AT A STOP SIGN BEFORE AND THIS JEEP DIED AND STARTED RIGHT BACK. OCCASIONALLY THE GASCAP LIGHT COMES ON AND STAYS FOR A COUPLE DAYS AND THEN GOES AWAY. ANOTHER STRANGE THING THAT HAPPENS A LOT IS THE TEMPERATURE ON DASH IS SET TO FAHRENHEIT, BUT OFTEN I HAVE TO CHANGE IT BACK BECAUSE I WILL LOOK AND ITS SHOWING CELSIUS. THE MOST RECENT...

3.6 PENTASTAR V6 OIL FILTER / OIL COOLER ASSEMBLY DEVELOPED A MAJOR OIL LEAK... OIL COULD BE SMELLED DRIPPING ON EXHAUST STOPPED DRIVING UNTIL DEALER HAD REPLACEMENT PART. WAS IN FEAR THAT ENGINE OIL COULD CATCH ON FIRE, OR RUN OUT OF OIL AND DESTROY MOTOR. ALL NEW CHRYSLER 3.6 3.2 V6'S ARE AFFECTED. CHRYSLER CHARGED ALMOST 600.00 TO REPLACE PART AND ALLOW SAFE OPERATION OF 3 YEAR OLD CAR. THEIR HAS BEEN A NEW PART FOR 2014 MODELS THAT IS HAVING MORE OIL LEAK PROBLEMS... *TR

I RECEIVED AN E-MAIL FROM JEEP AROUND DECEMBER STATING RECALL N28 WOULD AFFECT MY JEEP BECAUSE THE POWER STEERING LINE WILL RUB THE TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER TUBE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO LEAK TRANSMISSION FLUID. I NOTICED ON DECEMBER 18TH THAT MY JEEP WAS IN FACT LEAKING TRANSMISSION FLUID SO I CALLED THE CLOSEST JEEP DEALERSHIP TO ME, GWINNETT JEEP IN STONE MOUNTAIN GEORGIA, AND TOOK MY VEHICLE THERE ON DECEMBER 19TH. AFTER FURTHER INSPECTION, THE DEALERSHIP STATED THE ENTIRE TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER UNIT WAS LEAKING, WHICH I TOLD THEM WAS ODD SINCE THIS JEEP IS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD WITH LESS THAN 50,000 MILES. THE DEALERSHIP LATER CALLED ME BACK AND TOLD ME A DIFFERENT STORY STATING A TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER TUBE WAS LEAKING AND THAT UNFORTUNATELY IT WAS A DIFFERENT TRANSMISSION OIL COOLER TUBE THAN WAS LISTED IN RECALL N28. I DIDN'T BELIEVE THEIR STORY SINCE THEY INITIALLY TOLD...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V234000 (POWER TRAIN, STEERING); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

VEHICLE STOPPED GETTING HEAT FROM ALL VENTS ON DRIVERS SIDE, INCLUDING DEFROSTER AND ONLY LUKE WARM HEAT ON THE PASSENGER SIDE. ALL REGULAR MAINTENANCE HAD BEEN PERFORMED ON THE VEHICLE. DEALER SAYS RADIATOR AND HEATER CORE NEED TO BE REPLACED AS THEY ARE FILLED WITH 'SLUDGE'. A LITTLE RESEARCH ONLINE AND THIS SEEMS TO BE AN ALL TO COMMON ISSUE WITH THESE JEEPS AND CHRYSLER HAS GIVEN NO ANSWER AS TO THE CAUSE. WHILE NOT HAVING HEAT IS INCONVENIENT, NOT BEING ABLE TO DEFROST THE WINDSHIELD IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THEY ARE CURRENTLY FIGHTING ME ON PAYING FOR THIS AS THE VEHICLE IS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS IS AN ISSUE CHRYSLER IS FULLY AWARE OF AND HAS DONE NOTHING TO FIX! FURTHER INVESTIGATING HAS SHOWN THAT IGNORING THIS PROBLEM AND NOT REMOVING THIS SLUDGE COULD EVENTUALLY LEAD TO ENGINE FAILURE. *JS
