2013 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

While driving the vehicle, the heat cuts out and the defroster fails. This fogs up the window quickly causing an unsafe situation. Have had heating system flushed, controls and thermostat replaced, but problem continues to occur.

The contact owns a 2013 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving 65 MPH, he noticed a strong gasoline odor. There were no warning lights illuminated. The contact was able to drive to his residence and turn off the vehicle. The contact stated as he opened the hood of the vehicle, he saw gasoline pouring out of the fuel line into the engine compartment. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The dealer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to purchase the parts and replace the fuel line himself. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 114,820.

Approximately the end of June the airbag light came on, made appointment with Red Bluff Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram 545 Adobe Road Red Bluff, CA. 96080. Phone # (530) 840-2901. The soonest they could fit me in was July 19th @ 10:00am. Invoice states as follows; 97549 1.00 verified concern of airbag lamp on has active DTC B1B02 driver airbag said #1 open. Removed airbag installed Miller 8443 SRS simulator into clockspring airbag leads DTC goes stored unplug SRS tool and reinstalled airbag lamp comes back on same DTCS. Driver airbag will need to be replaced. Dealership was unable to answer if the airbag would deploy while driving or if the airbags would even go off in an accident, its their belief the system shuts down when there is a code. I have only gone to one dealership as mentioned above. Approximately $1,000.00 for the part alone. Problem is unresolved.

I just left my house and drove 2 miles at 25mph. My brakes went out then my vehicle caught fire with me and my two children inside. It is being inspected by insurance but there were no warning signs besides my brakes going out.

MY JEEP STARTED SMOKING SMELT A BADD OIL BURNING SMELL AND ALMOST CAUGHT ON FIRE WHEN I FINALLY GOT STOPPED LOOKED UNDER THE HOOD AND I COULD SEE OIL FLOATING ON TOP OF THE ENGINE EVERYWHERE AND GOING ALL DOWN THE BACK OF THE TRANSMISSION LOOKS LIKE A PART OR SOMETHING MAY HAVE A CRACK IN IT CAN'T REALLY TELL OIL IS ALL OVER THE UNDER CARRIAGE ALL THE WAY TO THE REAR END HAS GOT ALL OVER THE BRAKES HAD TROUBLES AND ISSUES WITH ITS SLOWING DOWN WITHOUT IT SMELLING LIKE AN OIL FIRE AND SMOKE POURING OUT OF THE BRAKE ASSEMBLY

DRIVING APPROX 65 MPH ON HIGHWAY. RPM JUMPED THEN CAR LOST POWER. WOULD NOT SHIFT PAST NEUTRAL AND UNABLE TO REMOVE KEY. AUTO DOOR UNLOCK FAILED. VEHICLE WAS EVACUATED AND THEN STRUCK FROM BEHIND AT HIGH SPEED.

I WAS LEAVING A GROCERY STORE AND AS I WAS TURNING ONTO THE BUSY MAIN ROAD MY JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED STALLED WITH NO WARNING NO LIGHTS IT JUST DIED IT WOULD NOT START AT ALL. AFTER 20 MINUTES IT THEN STARTED. IT WAS VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE PERSON BEHIND ME COULD HAVE HIT ME IF THERE WASN'T ANY OTHER TRAFFIC. THIS HAS HAPPENED BEFORE AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS WHERE IT WOULD STALL OUT OF NO WHERE BUT THEN I COULD TURN THE KEY AND IT WOULD START. I AM TERRIFIED TO GET ON THE HIGHWAY AFRAID IT WILL DO THAT AGAIN AND HARM ME OR OTHERS ON THE ROAD.

HEATER DOES NO BLOW HOT AIR ON DRIVERS SIDES VENTS. AS A RESULT, THIS CAUSED A FROSTED BLIND SPOT ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE OF WINDOW AND DOOR GLASS. PP

BROUGHT 2013 WRANGLER TO DEALER FOR CONSTANT P0304 CODE AFTER REPLACING IGNITION COILS AND SPARK PLUGS. DEALER DID A COMPRESSION LEAK TEST TO VERIFY THAT THE 4TH CYLINDER HEAD WAS BAD AND NEED REPLACING AND WILL COST $3700.00 FOR THE REPAIR. I HAD ASKED ABOUT THE SERVICE BULLETIN 09-002-14 AND MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE X56 CODE EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR THE CYLINDER HEAD. I CALLED CHRYSLER/JEEP AS RECOMMENDED BY THE DEALER, AND THEY TOLD ME TO CALL THE DMV.

I WAS IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY AT 60MPH DASH LIGHTS AND RADIO WENT OFF, THE ENGINE WENT OFF FOR ABOUT 3 SECONDS THEN EVERYTHING CAME BACK TO NORMAL. THIS OCCURRED 3 TIMES IN THE NEXT 10 MINUTES. EACH OCCURANCE WAS THE SAME. RAN FINE AFTER THAT FOR 30 MINS. HAS NOT REOCCURED. TOTAL SHUT DOWN IS DANGEROUS. I HAVE HEARD REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO MANY JEEPS.
