2020 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

I have had 18 visits to 2 Jeep Dealerships for my 2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara. I have had my radio replaced 3 times and I'm still waiting (its been months!) for another new radio as the current is still going black, powering off, sometimes it responds & sometimes it doesn't. This is EXTREMELY frustrating for a "new" car not to have a functioning radio. But then recently my IC went totally black. No view of my gas gauge!! Of course, my VIN was NOT included in last year's recall but I was able to get this replaced thankfully via the extended warrantee I purchased. I had to pay a $500 deductible for it to be replaced. Same for the radio. At what point does Jeep or Mopar say....this is a serious electrical problem? Isn't anyone trained to get to root cause? I have pictures and videos of the power surging in my dashboard but sure lets keep replacing radios at the customers EXPENSE!

Digital dash went out for 6 months and my vehicle was not covered under the recall warranty..Had no fuel gauge or speedometer during that time...Paid $1143.73 to have it repaired...nowy odometer does not match my computer.

Subject: Formal Complaint Regarding Failed Recall Repair and Improper Diagnostics Charges - Jeep Recall No. 23V116 (Manual Transmission Clutch Overheating) & Violation of 49 U.S.C. Section 30120 Dear Sir or Madam, I am submitting this complaint regarding an unresolved safety defect and improper repair charges related to an official recall performed on my 2020 Jeep Wrangler (manual transmission). The issue concerns Recall No. 23V116 and superseding Recall 21V028, which addresses clutch overheating and associated software logic. Prior to the recall work performed, my Jeep had approximately 23,000 miles on it, and I never had any issues with the manual transmission or transmission related warning codes. In May, I received letters informing me that I needed to take my Jeep to the dealership as soon as possible to have the above recall work performed to avoid potential overheating and fire hazards related to my clutch plate. In June 2025, I brought my vehicle to Don White's Jeep dealership on York Rd. in Cockeysville, MD. The dealership replaced the clutch hardware and performed a software update as required. I did not drive the Jeep for a couple of months due to weather and frequent rainfall during June, July & August. Upon driving the Jeep in August, the "Service Transmission" light came on, and I immediately notified the dealership, and they performed a software update to fix the warning light, admitting they did not realize the software update was required the first time. Two days later, the "Service Transmission" light came on again, and I immediately notified the dealership and dropped the Jeep off to be serviced. The dealership has now had the Jeep for more than a month and has not been able to resolve the "Service Transmission" issue. They are now refusing to perform any additional work unless I pay them approx. $1,000 in diagnostics fees. I opened a case with Jeep Customer Care and they also refused coverage and are demanding payment.

My instrument cluster panel display has suddenly gone black/blank. This looks to be a known recall issue under Recall ID: 24V-652 which includes Select 2018–2024 Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator vehicles. Mine is a 2020 Jeep Wrangler. Can my vehicle be added to the recall list? I am at safety risk as I cannot see my gas mileage, warning light indicators, Electronic Throttle Control, Battery Charge Warning, Engine Coolant Temperature, Airbag Warning, Brake System Alerts, Transmission Fault lights, etc. I have scheduled a service appointment to have this looked at the dealership where I purchased my Jeep. I would appreciate any financial assistance as it will be an extreme struggle to pay out of pocket for this to be repaired. My safety and my family's safety is at risk. Please help!

2020 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Willys The Instrument cluster panel went out. Black screen. A critical safety issue b/c you cannot see the speedometer, warning lights, or anything on the screen. There is a recall (NHTSA#24V-652) however my VIN # is not included in the recall. Brought the Jeep into mechanic who said this should be covered under Jeep Recall. To date no certified Jeep dealership will repair under recall b/c they are saying VIN # is not included in the recall.

Vehicle shakes violently at 65-70 mph. We had the Jeep's front end aligned and it continues to shake.

My front dash was not registering, so I cannot see my speed, gas tank, and all other info on it. When I took it to a mechanic, he had to replace the AGM Auxiliary Battery. It went from the normal square battery to the size and shape of balloon, causing a dangerous situation. The mechanic sent us to the dealership to finish the work as it should be covered under the recall. He also advised us not to drive it on our roadtrip as the INSTRUMENT PANEL CLUSTER needs to be fixed and could cause fires as it’s under recall: RECALL NHTSA #24V-652. We need to get it fixed, but the dealership declined saying my Jeep Wrangler 2020’s VIN number doesn’t show the recall. So, now we are trying to get that recall established for this VIN number as it’s having the SAME ISSUES AS THOSE RECALLED. Now, we are trying to get the recall number to apply to my VIN so we can get the repair done. Frustrating to do a goose chase when a vehicle is having the SAME issue as those with the recall.
