2014 JEEP WRANGLER Engine Problems

OIL COOLER LEAK. THEIR SHOULD BE A RECALL AS THIS CAN POTENTIAL CAUSE A FIRE AND EVERYWHERE I LOOK PEOPLE ARE FILING COMPLAINTS FOR THIS EXACT ISSUE ON 2014 JEEP WRANGLERS...

PURCHASED JEEP WRANGLER AS NEW FROM DEALER WITH 103 MILES ON IT. AT 36072 OIL WAS LEAKING ALL OVER THE TOP OF ENGINE AND DOWN THE TRANSMISSION. DEALERSHIP REPLACED OIL FILTER HOUSING/OIL COOLER. AFTER REPLACEMENT I LOOKED UP PART NUMBER USED AND IT WAS AN EARLIER REVISION THAN WHAT SHOULD HAVE USED. JEEP WAS REPAIRED ON 2/10/17, ON 2/18/17 JEEP WAS AGAIN LEAKING OIL FROM TOP OF ENGINE.

OIL FILLER/OIL COOLER LEAK

OIL COOLER HOUSING LEAKING OIL INTO THE VALLEY BETWEEN CYLINDER BANKS. OIL THEN RUNS OVER THE BELL HOUSING ONTO TRANSMISSION THEN ONTO EXHAUST CROSSOVER PIPE. LOOKS TO BE AN ENVIRONMENTAL AND FIRE ISSUE. STARTED LEAKING AT APPROX. 41000 MILES ON THE JEEP.

THE THERMOSTAT HOUSING HAS COOLANT RESIDUE ON IT AND IS CRACKED. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE JEEPS. THIS PART IS NOT A PART THAT CAN BE BROKEN THE ONLY REASON SOMETHING GOES WRONG WITH IT IS THAT IT IS DEFECTED. MOPAR SHOULD BE REPLACING THESE PARTS.

MY JEEP HAS LESS THAN 21,000 MILES ON IT. I BROUGHT IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A COOLANT LEAK. THEY HAVEN'T FOUND THE COOLANT LEAK BUT THEY DID FIND AN OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL COOLER. THIS IS THE SECOND OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL COOLER. PARTS ARE ON BACK ORDER, I WAS TOLD THIS IS A FREQUENT AND COMMON PROBLEM. THEY HAVE NOT FOUND THE SOURCE OF MY COOLANT LEAK. THIS CAR IS GENTLY DRIVEN BY MY WIFE AND IS UNMODIFIED IN ANY WAY.

THE OIL COOLER UNDER THE INTAKE, THE JEEP HAS 68K MILES ON IT, NEEDS A THIRD OIL COOLER, THE DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO COVER THEM UNDER WARRANTY, THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE THE FIRST YEAR I BOUGHT THE JEEP BRAND NEW. EVERY TIME THEY CRACK, OUT OF THE BLUE, NO WARNING, THE DRIVER IS STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH SIX QUARTS OF OIL ALL OVER THE MOTOR, TRANS, EXHAUST AND GROUND.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS EVIDENCE OF AN OIL LEAK EMITTING FROM THE OIL FILLER ASSEMBLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 49,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

LEAKS OIL FROM OIL COOLER HOUSING UNDER THE INTAKE MANIFOLD; OIL RUNS DOWN BACK OF ENGINE; NOTED WITH EXCESSIVE TEMPERATURE CHANGES DUE TO WEATHER CONDITIONS; OIL COOLER HOUSING IS CRACKED

MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER HAD THE OIL FILTER HOUSING FAIL AT 52000 MILES. IT LEAKED ENOUGH OIL WAS DRIPPING DOWN THE BACK OF THE ENGINE ONTO THE TRANSMISSION AND ON TO THE EXHAUST SYSTEM. IT DRIPPED WHETHER PARKED OF IN MOTION.

OIL FILTER ADAPTER, OIL COOLER, NOT SURE ON CORRECT TERMINOLOGY. PART NUMBER 68105583AA TO BE SPECIFIC. JUST GOT NORMAL MAINTENANCE AND MULTI POINT INSPECTION DONE AND 2 DAYS, 128 MILES LATER SMOKE STARTED GUSHING OUT FROM UNDER MY VEHICLE. I WAS DRIVING TO GET LUNCH, GOT OUT AND SURE ENOUGH OIL WAS PROFUSELY LEAKING OUT OF THE BOTTOM. DROVE HOME IMMEDIATELY AND PARKED IT. HAD TO WAIT UNTIL MONDAY TO TRY AND DRIVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. STARTED HER UP AND WITHIN 5 MINUTES HAD A PUDDLE THE SIZE OF A TIRE UNDERNEATH OF OIL. MANAGED TO GET HER TO THE DEALERSHIP WITHOUT ISSUE, BUT MY SYSTEM WAS TELLING ME I HAD 0% PILLS LIKE REMAINING. OIL HAD BEEN LEAKING OUT FROM ON TOP OF THE ENGINE WORRYING ME OF A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD BUT I MANAGED TO GET IT TO THE SHOP. APPARENTLY THIS PART IS NOT COVERED UNDER...

ON 12/04/2016 I WAS DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY AT AROUND 80MPH WHEN A LOAD EXPLOSION STOPPED MY ENGINE. I IMMEDIATE STOPPED AS SMOKE STARTED TO COME INSIDE THE CABIN. AS SOON AS I EXITED THE VEHICLE I NOTICED A BIG FIRE UNDER THE CAR AND INSURE THE HOOD. I WAS ABLE TO PUT THE FIRE OUT USING 3 FIRE EXTINGUISHERS. THIS REALLY COULD'VE ESCALATED QUICKLY. I NOTICED A BIG HOLE ON THE SIDE OF THE ENGINE. LOOKS LIKE IT THREW A ROD SINCE THE OIL PRESSURE WAS LOW. PROBABLY DUE TO FAULTY OIL FILTER MOUNT. THE EXACT REASON FOR THE ENGINE FAILURE AND SUBSEQUENT FIRE HASN'T BEEN DETERMINED YET AS THE DEALER WILL OT LOOK AT IT UNTIL CHRYSLER SENDS AN INVESTIGATOR TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE. CHRYSLER WILL NOT SEND AN INVESTIGATOR AND IS ASKING FOR THE DEALER TO LOOK AT IT. IT'S BEEN OVER 10 DAYS AND NOTHING HAS...

I'VE NOTICED FOR THE PAST FEW MONTHS LIKE LEAKAGE ON THE GROUND BUT HAVE YET TO PINPOINT THE EXACT LOCATION. I TOOK IT TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND ASKED IF THEY HAVE HAD ANY ISSUES WITH LEAKS AND DANCED AROUND THE QUESTION AND SAID I WOULD NEED TO LEAVE IT FOR A MECHANIC TO LOOK AT IT, I ASKED IF MY WARRANTY WAS STILL VALID AND THE HAD RAN MY VIN AND SAID IT WAS EXPIRED......WHICH IS PUZZLING CAUSE I HAVE AROUND 30K MILES ON IT. SO I STILL HAVE A MYSTERY LEAK AND READING UP ON DIFFERENT FORUMS SEEMS TO BE ON ONGOING ISSUES WITH COOLING OIL LINES OR OIL FILTER ADAPTER, OIL COOLER. *TR

ENGINE THREW A ROD WHILE DRIVING. VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE. *TR

3,6 OIL FILTER ADAPTER LEAKING. HAVE 38,000 ON VEHICLE, GOT OIL CHANGED ON MONDAY EVENING AND WEDNESDAY MORNING NOTICED A BURNED OIL SMELL AND A CLOUD OF SMOKE OFF MOTOR AFTER SHORT DRIVE TO WORK. HAVE OIL SLICK UNDERNEATH VEHICLE WHEN CAME OUT THAT AFTERNOON. WENT DIRECTLY BACK TO DEALERSHIP, AND THEY ADVISED THAT THEY HAD DONE NOTHING WRONG , BUT WAS A BAD OIL FILTER ADAPTER. I SEE A LOT OF THEM APPEAR TO FAIL, BUT THE TIMING IS SUSPECT. HAS THE REPLACEMENT PART BEEN UPGRADED TO PREVENT FUTURE FAILURES?

FOR MONTHS I SMELLED ANTIFREEZE FROM THE FRONT OF THE JEEP BUT THERE WERE NO LEAKS . AFTER A MONTH I FOUND DRIED ANTIFREEZE ON THE BOTTOM OF THE RADIATOR PASSENGER SIDE . THE JEEP WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND WAS REPAIRED BY DEALER . MY FRIEND ALSO WITH A NEW 2014 WRANGLER ALSO HAD SAME PROBLEM . THANK YOU JOEY

I HAVE A WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED 2014. AROUND 48,000 MILES I SMELLED BURNING OIL AN NOTICED OIL LEAKING UNDER THE CARRIAGE WHEN THE CAR WAS PARKED. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INDICATED THAT THE OIL COOLER WAS LEAKING. THE ENGINE WAS FILLED WITH OIL. THEY REPLACED THE OIL COOLER AND ADAPTER. THIS IS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD. I HOPE JEEP REPLACED THE DAMAGED PART WITHONE THAT WILL PREVENT THE PROBLEM FROM REOCCURRING.

BURNING SMELL FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS, TOOK IT IN AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE MY OIL COOLER. ENGINE WAS FILLED WITH OIL AND IT WAS A MAJOR LEAK FROM THE BACK. PART #68105583-AE WAS PUT IN IT'S PLACE AND I HAVE A SNEAKING SUSPICION IT WAS PART #68105583-AA THAT WAS BROKEN SINCE IT WAS MADE OUT OF PLASTIC! MY JEEP HAS 32K MILES, AND IS UNDER WARRANTY, BUT THIS IS TOO MUCH! RECALL PLEASE!

I RECENTLY STARTING TO SMELL BURNING OIL IN MY JEEP. I DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT, AND FIGURED THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A MINOR SPILL OR THE OLD OIL WAS BURNING OFF AFTER MY RECENT OIL CHANGE. BUT AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS, THE SMELL REMAINED AND I NOTICED AN OIL STAIN WHERE I PARK THIS JEEP IN MY DRIVEWAY. I THEN THOUGHT THAT MAYBE MY MECHANIC FAILED TO PROPERLY INSTALL MY OIL FILTER AFTER THE LAST OIL CHANGE. BUT TURNS OUT, THE OIL FILTER HOUSING WAS LEAKING OIL. THIS IS POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS AND NOW HAS TO BE REPLACED. AND FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, THIS PART IS MADE FROM PLASTIC AND HAS CAUSED MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS SPECIFIC MODEL YEAR. MY SISTER, WHO HAS THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL ALSO HAD TO HAVE HERS REPLACED. I ONLY HAVE 50K HIGHWAY MILES ON THIS VEHICLE. I ALSO NOTICED THAT THE...

2014 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON 3.6. OIL FILTER ADAPTER LEAKING OIL. VEHICLE HAS LESS THEN 20 THOUSAND MILES ON IT. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER ABOUT SIX MONTHS AGO AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. TOOK IT IN TWO DAYS AGO SHOWED THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT PICTURES OF THE OIL ON MY GARAGE FLOOR. AFTER READING CONSUMER COMPLAINTS (2014 JEEP WRANGLER 3.6) I TOLD THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT TO LOOK AT THE OIL FILTER ADAPTER. SERVICE DEPARTMENT CALLED ME THE NEXT DAY AND SAID " YOU HAVE A OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL FILTER ADAPTER". IS THIS GOING TO BE AN ONGOING PROBLEM? WILL I HAVE TO REPLACE THIS PART EVERY 20 THOUSAND MILES? I REACHED OUT TO CHRYSLER TWICE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE GOTTEN KNOW RESPONSE. I FEEL THERE IS A POTENTIAL FOR AND ENGINE FIRE IF CHRYSLER DOES NOT COME UP WITH A PERMANENT FIX.

HAD MY OIL CHANGED AND SHORTLY AFTER SMELLED BURNING OIL. DIDN'T THINK MUCH OF IT, FIGURED THERE MAY HAVE BEEN A MINOR SPILL OR THE OLD OIL WAS BURNING OFF. AFTER A COUPLE OF DAYS, THE SMELL REMAINED AND I NOTICED AN OIL STAIN WHERE I PARKED MY CAR. THOUGHT THEY FORGOT TO PUT THE SCREW BACK IN BUT TURNS OUT, THE OIL FILTER HOUSING WAS LEAKING OIL. THIS IS POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS AND NOW HAS TO BE REPLACED. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, THIS PART IS MADE FROM PLASTIC AND HAS CAUSED MANY PROBLEMS WITH THIS SPECIFIC MODEL YEAR. A FRIEND OF MINE ALSO HAD TO REPLACE HIS. ONLY HAVE 30K MILES ON THE VEHICLE SO MAKE SURE THAT WHEN YOU GET YOUR OIL CHANGED, WHOEVER IS SERVICING THE VEHICLE DOES NOT TIGHTEN DOWN THE FILTER TOO MUCH BECAUSE IT CAN CAUSE THE PLASTIC PART TO CRACK. LOOKS LIKE THE...

DID OIL AND FILTER CHANGE AT THE DEALERSHIP. I GOT ON THE FREEWAY AND LOOKED AT MY REAR WINDOW WHEN I SAW SMOKE. DID NOT THINK OF IT MUCH SINCE I FIGURED ITS THE OLD OIL BURNING. DROVE FOR A GOOD 2-3 MILES AND IT WAS GETTING WORSE. PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE AND A LOT OF SMOKE GOT INSIDE THE VEHICLE. GOT OUT AND THE OIL WAS DRAINING OVER THE MUFFLER, TRANSMISSION COVER THAT WAS CAUSING THE SMOKE. I THOUGHT THEY FORGOT TO PUT THE SCREW BACK ON OR THE OIL FILTER LOOSE. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND CALLED A TOW TRUCK. ONCE AT THE DEALERSHIP, WAS TOLD BY THE TECH THAT IT MIGHT OF BEEN THE OIL COOLER THAT WAS DRAINING OR GOT CRACKED, HE SAID THAT THIS IS PRETTY COMMON. I CHECKED ONLINE FOR RECALLS BUT DID NOT FIND ANY BUT I DID NOTICE...

THE OIL FILTER CANISTER #68105583AA CRACKED BLEEDING OIL PROFUSELY.

I PURCHASED MY JEEP WRANGLER SPORT 2014 WITH LESS THAN 9000 MILES ON IT, DROVE FROM FL TO CO TWICE. SECOND TIME I GOT TO CO, CAR STARTED LEAKING OIL AND HASN'T STOPPED SINCE (6+ MONTHS). ALSO, WHEN I ACCELERATE SOMETHING SMELLS LIKE IT'S BURNING. OIL LIGHT WILL NOT TURN OFF.

COOLANT LEAK FROM RADIATOR, PASSENGER SIDE TOP CORNER UNDER SHROUD. I HAVE TWO 2014 JEEPS WITH THE SAME LEAK. SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURING DEFECT AS THERE ARE MANY THREADS ON THE INTERNET WITH THE SAME ISSUE. MY WARRANTY IS EXPIRED BUT THESE ARE ONLY 2 YEARS OLD AND SHOULD NOT BE FAILING LIKE THIS.

AROUND 14K MILES MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON (3.6L) BEGAN LEAKING OIL. I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE SHOP 4 DIFFERENT TIMES AND NO ISSUE WITH THE FILTER OR DRAIN PLUG CAN BE FOUND. IT NOW LEAKS OIL PROFUSELY (15K) AND CONSTANTLY HAS A BURNING SMELL AFTER DRIVEN FOR A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. MY SERVICE CENTER HAS NOTED THAT MY ENGINE HAS AN "OIL FILTER ADAPTER" WHICH APPEARS TO BE NEW FOR THIS MODEL YEAR AND THE LEAK APPEARS TO BE EMANATING FROM THAT AREA. AFTER READING VARIOUS ARTICLES ON DIFFERENT FORUMS, IT APPEARS THAT THE PART # IN QUESTION IS 68105583AA AND APPLIES ONLY TO 2014 3.6L CHRYSLER V6 ENGINES.

'TAKATA RECALL" MY NEW 2014 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA WHICH WAS PURCHASED JULY 2014 WHICH COSTS ME 37K,PLUS ADDITIONAL 3K FOR LIFE TIME WARRANTY IS LEAKING OIL . AS PER JEEP FORUMS AND CAR COMPLIANTS WEB SITE THE ISSUE IS HAPPENING TO OTHER JEEP OWNERS AS WELL AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. IT IS THE CRACKED OIL FILTER ADAPTER AND FIND IT STRANGE THAT KENDALL JEEP DEALER IN MIAMI IS NOT AWARE OF THIS ISSUE AS I TOOK IN TODAY TO ASSISTANT SERVICE MGR. MIGUEL OBREGON AND THEY ARE CLAIMING IT COULD HAVE HAPPENED BY WHOMEVER DID MY OIL CHANGE AS IT WAS NOT SERVICED BY DEALER.

MIGUEL OBREGON PLEASE LET ME KNOW HOW TO RESOLVE THIS ISSUE ASAP.

OIL ADAPTOR/COOLER CRACKING CAUSING MASSIVE OIL LEAK IN 3.6L V6 ENGINES FOR 2014 MODELS. JEEP FORUMS ARE BUZZING WITH THIS ISSUE AND SOME OF THESE LEAKS HAVE RESULTED IN FIRES. I TOOK MINE IN AFTER SMELLING A VERY STRONG BURNING OIL SMELL (NOT DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE FOR ANOTHER 1,200 MILES) AND SEEING OIL ON THE FLOOR OF MY GARAGE. JEEP IS UNDRIVABLE IN THIS CONDITION AND PART HAS TO BE ORDERED DUE TO HIGH DEMAND. WAS TOLD THAT CHRYSLER ACKNOWLEDGED THE ISSUE BEING WIDESPREAD AND EVEN MENTIONED THAT A RECALL MAY BE COMING DOWN THE PIPELINE. BUT THAT DOESN'T HELP ME AND THE HUNDREDS OF OTHERS I'VE SEEN WHO HAD TO GET THIS FIXED THUS FAR.

AS STATED ON WWW.JEEPPROBLEMS.COM/TSBS/WRANGLER/2014/ A REPORT OF A MALFUNCTION ON THE OIL ENGINE PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT HAS BEEN REPORTED AS MALFUNCTIONING. SEE BELOW. DATE REPORTED: JUNE 06, 2014 NHTSA REFERENCE: #10056046 TSB REFERENCE: #SB-18-034-14 DESCRIPTION: ON SOME MODEL VEHICLES AND JEEPS, (MY 2013-2014)MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LAMP (MIL) ILLUMINATES AND DIAGNOSTIC TROUBLE CODE (DTC) IS SET REGARDING ENGINE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR CIRCUIT. IN ORDER FOR US TO CORRECT THE ISSUE WE HAVE TO TAKE THE VEHICLE INTO THE JEEP FACILITY PAY $100.00 FOR THE DIAGNOSTIC CHECK TO BE COMPLETED AND AN ADDITIONAL $252.00 FOR THE CIRCUIT TO BE CORRECTED AND REPLACED. THE VEHICLE CURRENTLY HAS 47,000 ON IT AND AFTER WE SPOKE WITH JEEP CORPORATE THEY SPECIFIED THAT THE ONLY WAY THEY WOULD EVEN LOOK INTO IT IS FOR US TO HAS THE SERVICE DONE AND PROVIDE THEM WITH A TICKET NUMBER. THIS IS UNDERSTANDABLE BUT THE LOCAL JEEP COMPANY LOCATED IN...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR BRAKE PADS WORE OUT PREMATURELY. IN ADDITION, THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT WHILE REPLACING THE BRAKES, HE NOTICED THAT THERE WAS A HIGH PRESSURE OIL LEAK COMING FROM THE OIL FILTER HOUSING AND AS A RESULT, IT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 41,000.

OIL FILTER HOUSING/COOLER LEAK BREAKS ON NUMEROUS LOW MILEAGE WRANGLERS, MOSTLY ON OR BEFORE 25,000 MILES. MINE WAS AT 21,000 MILES WHEN IT CRACK AND LEAKED PROFUSELY. THIS LEAKS SPREAD QUICKLY AND MOTOR OIL WAS GATHERING ON THE EXHAUST PIPE UNDER THE ENGINE BAY. THIS CREATED SMOKE FROM THE BURNING OIL WHICH COULD EVENTUALLY LEAD TO A VEHICLE FIRE. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO FIND THE ISSUE QUICKLY AND DIAGNOSE IT. THIS ALSO IS AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE, HAVING FLUIDS ESPECIALLY ENGINE OIL, LEAK ONTO ROADWAYS OR OTHER DRIVING SURFACES. JEEP HAS YET TO FORMALLY ADMIT TO THIS ISSUE, THOSE SEVERAL IF NOT ALL DEALERS ARE AWARE OF THIS ISSUE IN THE 2014 YEAR MODEL. CHEROKEE OWNERS ARE ALSO REPORTING THE SAME ISSUE, AND COME TO FIND OUT THE WRANGLER AND CHEROKEE SHARE THIS SAME EXACT PART. JEEP HAS FOCUSED ON CUTTING PRODUCTIONS COSTS RATHER THAN SAFETY. THIS NEEDS TO BE...

NOTICED A BURNING OIL SMELL AND TRACED DOWN THE SOURCE AS A CRACKED OIL FILTER ADAPTOR. TOOK IT TO A REPAIR SHOP WHERE THEY EXAMINED THE PART AND VERIFIED THAT WAS THE SOURCE OF THE OIL LEAK.

OBSERVED OIL LEAKING FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE AND WAS ABLE TO LOCATE THE SOURCE OF THE LEAK ON THE TOP PART OF THE ENGINE AROUND THE OIL FILTER. THE LEAK WAS CAUSED BY A CRACK IN THE OIL COOLER HOUSING AND OIL WAS COVERING THE TOP PART OF THE ENGINE AND RUNNING DOWN ON TO THE TRANSMISSION AND THE EXHAUST. MY VEHICLE ONLY HAD 9516 MI ON IT SO I DECIDED TO CHECK ON LINE TO SEE IF ANYONE ELSE WAS HAVING THIS PROBLEM WITH 2014 WRANGLER. I WAS ABLE TO LOCATE AT LEASE 50 OTHER COMPLAINTS WITH THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THIS ISSUE IS JUST NOT AN INCONVENIENCE BUT A SAFETY HAZARD AS WELL BECAUSE OIL ON TOP OF THE ENGINE AND THE EXHAUST IS A FIRE HAZARD. THIS LEAK OCCURRED BOTH WHITE THE VEHICLE WAS MOVING AND SITTING STILL. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY BEING REPAIRED AT...

AUGUST 14 2014 I BUY THE JEEP IN NOV 11 I TOKE THE JEEP FOR OVER HEED THEY TEST AND TOLD ME NOTHING WAS FOUND ON SET 5 THE JEEP OVER HEED AGAIN I TAKE TO THE DEALER AGAIN THEY TELL ME NOTHING WAS FOUND I KNOW SOMETHING IS WRONG BECAUSE FOR NO REASONED MY RADIATOR BECOME EMPTY PLEASE HELP. I WANT A NEW 2014 JEEP WITH OUT ANY PROBLEM CHECK YOUR RECORD FOR RECALL ON THE ENGINE

OIL LEAK AT THE TOP OF THE MOTOR, VERY COMMON AND SEEMS TO NOT BE GETTING FIXED AND COULD CAUSE ISSUE STRANDING OWNERS OR WITH POTENTIAL FIRE. PART NUMBER THAT IS CAUSING THE ISSUE IS 68105583. HAS BEEN FIXED BUT NOT SURE WHEN IT WILL FAIL AGAIN AND NOT BE UNDER WARRANTY OR CAUSE ME TO BE STRANDED INT HE BACK COUNTRY.

WENT TO START CAR FROM OFF POSITION. ENGINE STARTS AND STALLS. DOES THIS 3 TIMES UNTIL IT DOESN'T START ANYMORE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE DEALER COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 9,000.

EASTER SUNDAY MORNING DROVE FROM COUNTRY HOME 7 MILES INTO TOWN TO CHURCH, NO STOPPING AND SLOWING DOWN JUST A COUPLE OF TIMES. PARKED, LOCKED VEHICLE AND WALKED INTO CHURCH LOBBY. STOPPED TO SPEAK TO A MAN WHEN HE NOTICED BLACK SMOKE IN THE PARKING LOT. TURNED AND SAW THAT IT WAS COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD OF MY JEEP. WITHIN A MINUTE FLAMES STARTED. FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS CALLED AND RESPONDED WITHIN A FEW MINUTES, BUT NOT BEFORE FLAMES FROM THE PASSENGER FRONT SIDE JUMPED ONTO THE CAR PARKED NEXT TO THE JEEP. BOTH VEHICLES WERE BURNED UP AND TOTALED. FLAMES STARTED ON THE FRONT RIGHT SIDE (PASSENGER). *TR

VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR AN OIL CHANGE, THE EMPLOYEE TOLD ME THERE WAS A MAJOR OIL LEAK. I HAD TO LEAVE MY VEHICLE AT THE DEALERSHIP SO THEY COULD FIGURE OUT WHERE THE OIL LEAK WAS. I WAS ADVISED THAT THE OIL WAS LEAKING FROM THE OIL ADAPTOR AND THAT THERE WAS A CRACK IN THE PART. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE, I ACCIDENTALLY BUMPED THE KEYS OF MY JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WITH MY KNEE, AND THE KEY TURNED COUNTER-CLOCKWISE ENOUGH TO TURN THE CAR OFF. OBVIOUSLY, WHEN THE CAR TURNED OFF, THE BRAKES AND STEERING LOST POWER. LUCKILY, THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC AROUND ME, AND I WAS ABLE TO CAREFULLY COAST TO THE SHOULDER AND RE-START MY CAR. MY VEHICLE IS MANUAL, SO I COULD HAVE RESTARTED FROM NEUTRAL, BUT BASED ON DISCUSSION BOARDS, AUTOMATICS DO NOT HAVE THAT LUXURY. DOING A QUICK GOOGLE SEARCH FOR "JEEP BUMP KEY" YIELDS MANY DISCUSSIONS ABOUT THIS SAME PROBLEM. I UNDERSTAND THAT JEEP CURRENTLY HAS A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM IN COMMANDERS AND GRAND CHEROKEES, BUT THERE IS NOTHING FOR WRANGLERS. I CALLED MY DEALERSHIP, BUT THEY WILL NOT DIAGNOSE OR REPLACE ANYTHING FOR FREE WITHOUT AN ACTIVE RECALL. I AM 6' AND DO NOT SIT EXCESSIVELY CLOSE TO...

I HAD A CRACKED OIL FILTER HOUSING ADAPTER THAT CAUSED A BIG OIL LEAK. *TR

PURCHASED VEHICLE 3/31/15. PUT 400 MILES ON VEHICLE AND NOTICED BURNING OIL SMELL. CHECKED UNDERNEATH AND NOTICED SIGNIFICANT OIL LEAK ALL AROUND ENGINE COMING FROM THE UPPER PART OF ENGINE. TOOK INTO SHOP AND THEY DIAGNOSED PROBLEM OF THE OIL FILTER ADAPTOR PART#68105583AA BEING CRACKED AND OIL PUMPING OUT OF IT. THEY CALLED DEALERSHIP(DEWAYNE LANE) IN WA AND THEY ADVISED THEY "HAD PLENTY OF THOSE PARTS". MECHANIC THEN SAID, "OH! IT'S A RECALL THEN." DEALER THEN STATED, "AHHHHHHH....NO-BUT WE SURE REPLACE A LOT OF THOSE." *TR

I NOTICED A BURNING SMELL A FEW NIGHTS AGO BEFORE NOTICING AN OIL SPILL IN MY GARAGE. I LOOKED UNDER THE HELP AND SAW OIL EVERYWHERE! I WASN'T SURE WHERE IT WAS COMING FROM. IT LOOKED LIKE MAYBE A SEAL BUSTED FROM THE OIL PAN. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP RIGHT AWAY SINCE IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY. THERE IS OIL ALL OVER THE REAR OF THE ENGINE,I FEEL IT WILL EVENTUALLY START A FIRE! THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED SINCE THERE ARE MANY WRANGLERS AND OTHER MODELS WITH THE SAME PART, HAVING THE SAME ISSUE! *TR

CRACKED OIL COOLER/FILTER HOUSING CAUSING OIL LEAK AND BURNING OIL AT TOP OF MOTOR. *TR

NOTICED OIL IN THE GARAGE AFTER FINALLY BEING ABLE TO PARK INSIDE. CALLED JEEP DEALERSHIP IN NIAGARA FALLS, NY BUT THEY WERE UNABLE TO SCHEDULE ME AN APPOINTMENT FOR 5 DAYS. THE SNOW/ICE IN THE DRIVEWAY MELTED AND I DISCOVERED OIL STAINS ON THE CEMENT PAD WHERE I HAD BEEN PARKING. I WAS ABLE TO GET INTO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP IN BATAVIA, NY TODAY AND THEY CALLED WITH THE BAD NEWS OF A CRACKED OIL COOLER SPRAYING OIL ALL DOWN THE BACK OF THE ENGINE. ISN'T THIS A FIRE HAZARD. THEY HAVE REPLACED 4 ON OTHER VEHICLES WITH THE SAME ENGINE THIS YEAR (2015) ALREADY. THEE SHOULD BE A RECALL WITH A PROPER REPLACEMENT. THE CURRENT REPLACEMENT IS OEM STOCK. *TR

OIL HOUSING COOLER WAS APPARENTLY CRACKED AND LEAKING OIL ONTO MY ENGINE. THE CEL CAME ON AND VEHICLE ITSELF GAVE NO ERROR CODES. MADE AN APPOINTMENT AND TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. PROBABLY PUT 40 MILES ON IT IN BETWEEN NOT NOTICING OIL LOSS BEING PARKED ON THE STREET. SPOUSE NOTICED LOSS OF ACCELERATION DURING TRIP HOME FROM WORK. JEEP DIDN'T SEEM TO BE RUNNING ANY DIFFERENT SO DROVE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. I DON'T KNOW HOW LOW MY OIL PRESSURE WAS AND IF IT CAUSED DAMAGE TO MY ENGINE. DID NOTICE A GOOD AMOUNT OF OIL ON THE GROUND AFTER THE FACT.

BURNING SMELL, OIL SPOTS AND PUDDLES UNDER VEHICLE. DEALER DIAGNOSED OIL LEAK COMING FROM CRACKED OIL FILTER ADAPTER HOUSING. PART IS DEFECTIVE AND ALLOWS SIGNIFICANT AND DANGEROUS AMOUNTS OF OIL TO COLLECT IN THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. TECHNICIAN FOUND VALLEY OF ENGINE FULL OF OIL, UNDER VEHICLE, ON TRANSMISSION AND OIL ACCUMULATED IN THE SKID PLATES UNDER THE VEHICLE. OIL ACCUMULATION POSES SIGNIFICANT DANGER AND FIRE HAZARD WITH POTENTIAL SERIOUS DAMAGE TO VEHICLE ENGINE AND ITS OCCUPANTS IN THE EVENT OF ENGINE COMPARTMENT FIRE DUE TO ACCUMULATED OIL IN THE ENGINE VALLEY. CHRYSLER CASE MANAGER AND SERVICE MANAGER ACKNOWLEDGED PART IS A MANUFACTURERS DEFECT. PART WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY. DEALER REPORTED THEY ARE SEEING 2014 VEHICLES COME IN WITH THIS PROBLEM. *TR

BURNING SMELL OF OIL, PART WAS CRACKED. DEALERSHIP EVEN SAID IT IS A POOR DESIGN. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. THIS COULD'VE BEEN A FIRE OR AN ENGINE DISASTER WITH THE AMOUNT OF OIL COMING OUT OF THE VEHICLE. *TR

I EXPERIENCED THE OIL LEAK FROM THE OIL COOLER. REPLACED WITH THE AB PART. THIS COULD POTENTIALLY BE A DEVASTATING INCIDENT. EITHER TOO FAR AWAY FROM DEALER\SHOP OR A FIRE. THE AMOUNT OF OIL LEAKING WAS ABSURD. CLEARLY THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. *TR
