DEFECT: FAILURE OF THE FACTORY INSTALLED MOPAR/CHROME BUMPER IN AN IMPACT OF LESS THAN 5 MILES PER HOUR. 2011 JEEP WRANGLER WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT WHEREIN THE FRONT RIGHT BUMPER IMPACTED INTO A FIXED OBJECT (FREE STANDING BRICK WALL). THE BUMPER, WHICH CONSISTS OF TWO CHROME WRAPPED TUBULAR DEVICES MOUNTED TO A CENTER HOLDING BRACKET, SUFFERED NEGLIBLE DAMAGE CONSISTING OF SHALLOW ABRATIONS ON THE TUBULAR DEVICE AND WITHOUT EVIDENCE OF DENTING OF SAID DEVICE. THE TUBULAR COMPONENT MOUNTS TO THE HOLDING BRACKET BY WAY OF BOLTS. THE MOUNTING BRACKET SHOWS NO SIGN OF DAMAGE HOWEVER THE TUBULAR COMPONENTS NOW MOVE FREELY BUT REMAIN MOUNTED TO THE BRACKET INDICATIVE OF DAMAGE TO THE HOLDING BOLTS OR THE INTERNAL NUT/SCREW SYSTEM INSIDE THE TUBULAR COMPONENTS. THE ACCIDENT OCCURRED IN A CONFINED SPACE OF A DRIVEWAY. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS CONTACTED AND EXAMINED THE BUMPER. THE LOCAL DEALER DID NOT BELIEVE THE BUMPER WAS DESIGNED TO BE "BREAK AWAY " IN A LOW SPEED/LESS THAN 5 MILE PER HR ACCIDENT. THE DEALER WAS ASKED TO CONTACT THE MANUFACTURE OF THE BUMPER TO DISCUSS THIS DEFECTIVE PART OR DESIGN FLAW. *TR

LOSS OF BRAKING AFTER DRIVING THROUGH ABOUT 6 INCHES OF WATER. BRAKES MUST BE PUMPED TO TEMPORARILY RESTORE BRAKING. DEALER REPLACED MASTER CYLINDER BUT PROBLEM CONTINUES AFTER HEAVY SNOWS OR RAIN. *TR

HEATER A/C FOR 1999 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE... FAILURE TO OPERATE, RIDICULOUS TO REPAIR. MAKES DRIVING IN COLD CLIMATES IMPOSSIBLE, DUE TO WINDOW FOGGING AND ICE BUILDUP. DAIMLER CHRYSLER SHOULD RECALL AND REPAIR ALL JEEPS FROM 1999-2004 WHO ARE ALL KNOWN TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO DISREGARD THE CUSTOMER COMPLAINTS, WITH REGARDS TO THIS. THIS WAS REPEATED YEAR AFTER YEAR, WITH NO EASY SOLUTION FOR CUSTOMERS TO REPAIR. AN EXCESSIVELY COSTLY AND NOT GUARANTEED PROCEDURE WHICH COULD CREATE MORE PROBLEMS, EVEN WHEN PROFESSIONALLY REPAIRED, THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD FOR THOSE WHO MUST DRIVE IN COLD CLIMATES. *TR

VEHICLES STALLS AFTER EXTENDED OFF PERIOD. VEHICLE SHUDDERS UNDER NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. CHRYSLER HAS 2 TSBS TO FIX THIS- 21-016-05 AND 21-009-06 WHICH CALLS FOR REPLACING A TROUBLE PRONE TORQUE CONVERTER. CHRYSLER HAS AN UPDATED TORQUE CONVERTER TO FIX THIS PROBLEM YET WILL NOT TAKE ACTION TO FIX THE VEHICLE EVEN AFTER NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS SINCE 2006 TO GET TRANSMISSION FIXED PROPERLY. I WOULD LIKE THIS LOOKED INTO AS MYSELF AND NUMEROUS OTHER OWNERS OF THE 2005-2006 JEEP LIBERTY WITH THE DIESEL ENGINE EXPERIENCE THE SAME ISSUE. THE TRUCK HAS STALLED AFTER STARTING ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS CAUSING CONCERN FOR ACTION SINCE I HAVE HAD MY PREGNANT WIFE WITNESS THIS. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. *TR

PLEASE HELP US BEFORE SOMEONE GETS REALLY HURT.. THANK YOU. I DO NOT KNOW THE PART # BUT HAD TO PUT SOMETHING IN TO COMPLETE THIS SURVEY OR IT WOULDN'T LET ME CONTINUE.

2008 CHRSYLER TOWN AND COUNTRY FRONT BRAKES ARE DEFECTIVE AND EAR OUT WITHIN 5,000 MILES. MANUFACTURER IS AWARE OF PROBLEM AND HAS DESIGNED NEW BRAKE PADS. THEY HAVE NOT RECALLED THE VEHICLES. THEY DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH BRAKE PADS AVAILABLE FOR REPLACEMENT AND ARE TELLING CUSTOMERS THAT THEY MUST WAIT 4 MONTHS TO GET BRAKE PADS. THEY SUGGEST THAT PEOPLE SIMPLY DRIVE WITH METAL ON METAL UNTIL BRAKES ARE AVAILABLE. THIS IS ABSURD AND OBVIOUSLY UNSAFE. *TR

I PURCHASED A BRAND NEW JEEP WRANGLER ABOUT TWO AND A HALF YEARS AGO. ABOUT TWO MONTHS AGO THE CAR WOULD RANDOMLY STOP STARTING. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO MY LOCAL JEEP DEALER FOUR TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE NOT FIXED IT. THE DEALER CLAIMS THAT THEY CANNOT FIX THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THEY DO NOT KNOW WHAT'S WRONG WITH THE CAR. I HAVE NOTIFIED JEEP'S CORPORATE OFFICE AND THEY CLAIM THAT THE CAR HAS BEEN FIXED EVEN THOUGH ITS STARTING PROBLEM HAD PERSISTED. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE I WAS DRIVING THE JEEP A FEW WEEKS AGO AND THEN ALL THE CAR'S ALARMS WENT OFF, THEN DASHBOARD FAILED, THE WINDSHIELD WASHERS TURNED ON AND THEN THE CAR'S TRANSMISSION BEGAN TO KICK WITHIN ABOUT FIVE SECONDS. I TOOK IT BACK TO MY DEALER AND THEY CLAIMED THAT THE PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY A DEFECTIVE RADIO. I PERSONALLY HAVE NO IDEA IF THIS PROBLEM WAS CAUSED BY THE ORIGINAL STARTING PROBLEM. I ALSO AM CONCERNED THAT THERE MAY BE MORE PROBLEMS WITH MY CAR IN THE FUTURE. *TR

DODGE DURANGO 1999 ENGINE JUST DIES WHILE DRIVING GAUGES DROP ENGINE STALLS, THEN HOLD ON AND PRAY THAT NOBODY HITS YOU, I HAVE HAD THE PCM REPLACED AT THE DEALER $850.00 ONLY FOR IT TO START THE SAME PROBLEM 5 WEEKS LATER, I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER THEY SAY IT SHOWS NO ERROR AND WITHOUT IT BEING DOWN THEY ARE UNABLE TO TEST ANY FURTHER. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. I HAVE SPENT OVER $1300.00 AND MANY HOURS ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BY DODGE! I HAVE BEEN LUCKY TO AVOID NUMEROUS ACCIDENTS. *TR

3 OF THE 4 POWER WINDOWS ON MY 2007 JEEP LIBERTY HAVE FAILED...ONCE THE WINDOWS FAIL THE WILL NOT STAY UP. HAD THEM FIXED UNDER WARRANTY. THE FRONT DRIVER WINDOW IS FAILING AGAIN. THIS IS A FAULTY PART AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. I AM CONSIDERING IF THE PROPER AGENCIES DO NOT ADDRESS THIS ISSUE TO SEEKING OUT AND FILING A CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT AGAINST CHRYSLER AND ALL RESPONSIBLE PARTIES FOR THE LACK OF CONCERN OVER A POTENTIALLY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR
