2023 JEEP GLADIATOR Complaints

Parking/emergency brake has become unattached and no longer functions. It is a manual transmission and the parking brake is required to keep the vehicle from possibly rolling once parked.

Every time I fill up with gas it splashes up and over quite a bit. I have tried many different ways to get it to stop splashing. Slowed down the flow, changed positions of the tube. Slowed down the flow to try and not let it splash up towards the end of the fill. As soon as it gets close, it splashes over, on my fender, and about a 1 foot gas spot on the ground every time. I have not been to the dealer yet, I have decided to report this online, to see if anyone else has, and I feel this is a safety and hazard issue to the environment.

Purchased new in 2023....vehicle soon started making a "hissing" sound from steering area normally upon first morning startup. The vehicle would then go forward or in reverse when I attempted to come out of "park" but had not released brake yet. brought to dealer for repair 2/26/24 at 6162 miles. dealer replaced vacuum pump as cause of concern. the issue seemed resolved for maybe less than two weeks. same issue returned. The safety concern is that the vehicle should not move with the brake pedal pressed and this issue is allowing the vehicle to move. the brakes have to be pumped several times to get them to work when the issue arises. vehicle is currently back at the dealer since 3/28/24 trying to replicate the issue to resolve since no DTC's are coming up.

Went, to start the Jeep. No power to anything, dead. Waited a bit tried again nothing. Called Jeep and they sent a wrecker out. he tried to jump nothing. ended up towing to the dealer. They found no issue. Then Jeep sent this letter to me after a few conversations. They must have a problem they do not want to fix.

This Gladiator had at the time less than 5k miles on it. I went to start the Jeep and there was no power. No lights, not starting nothing. I called the dealer. They would not deal with me without going through JEEP WAVE, Called a tow company to tow to the dealer purchased from. The tow truck driver tried to jump the jeep with his portable system. We did get a few lights, still not starting. When the Jeep was delivered to the dealer the service clerk witnessed the same issues. The jeep was then taken to service and put on its charger and it started. I asked what would have drained the battery, but did not explain why this would have happened. The dealer kept the Jeep for a week. They could not reproduce the issue. Jeep Wave called and offered to pay me a sum of money to forget about this problem. From my research, this is an ongoing issue with the Gladiator and it stems from the Aux Battery. When I ask Jeep and the dealer about it they act as if they have no clue as to what I am talking about. All one has to do is google this problem. There are plenty of people having the same issues.

Brand new Jeep gladiator. 458 miles on it and the windshield glass cracked. No rock or external object hit it, simply faulty glass. I went to an online forum and found that windshields cracking on jeep’s is extremely common and Jeep refuses to warranty or do anything about it.

Headlights on new Jeep vehicles are terribly bright and poorly aimed so that they blind all oncoming traffic. There are many other newer vehicles with similar problems, but Jeeps seems to be the worst, along with Dodge Ram pickups. Please do something about getting laws passed to require proper aiming of headlights. The new HID and LED lights are obnoxious enough when they are aimed properly and there is a tiny change in elevation of the road. But if you drive down a flat country highway, you can easily see 1 out of 10 cars coming at you with much brighter lights than all the others. This should be illegal and those cars should be banned from the road until the problem is fixed.

At 5,700 miles on my 2023 Gladiator the drivers side rear brake caliper bolt fell out. This created a loud bangin inside the wheel and damaged the wheel as well. Upon stopping the caliper pivoted and lodged into the wheel not allowing me to back up.
