2014 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

I ONLY HAVE 56,000 MILES ON MY 2014 JEEP RUBICON UNLIMITED AND THE MOTOR IS ALREADY MAKING A TICKING NOISE.. NOT ONLY DO I CHANGE MY OIL AT THE RECOMMENDED MILEAGE I ALSO BUY THE MOST EXPENSIVE AND THE BEST OIL SO I WOULDN'T HAVE TO DEAL WITH SOMETHING LIKE THIS.

THE BACK SEAT BELT WRAPPED AROUND MY DAUGHTERS NECK AND THE LOCK MECHANISM WOULD NOT RELEASE AND EVERY TIME SHE PULLED ON IT THE BELT GOT TIGHTER UNTIL THE POINT SHE FAINTED AND COULD HAVE DIED HAD IT NOT BEEN FOR A PASSERBY CARRYING AN ARMY KNIFE, ALLOWING US TO CUT THE BELT THEREBY FREEING HER. ALMOST A DEATH SITUATION OUT OF THE BLUE. THIS HAPPENED WHEN WE WERE DRIVING AND THEN STOPPED IN A PARKING LOT TO RELEASE HER.*DT*JB*DT*DT*JB*JB*JB*DT*JB

WHILE DRIVING, AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON WHEN 20MPH OR MAYBE 10MINS OF DRIVING. LIGHT WILL GO OFF WHEN STOPPED. AND WILL RETURN AGAIN AT 20MPH OR 10MORE MIN OF DRIVING. IT WILL OCCASIONALLY STAY ON.

2014 JEEP WRANGLER POLAR ADDITION OIL COOLER FILTER HOUSING LEAK. MANY MANY JEEP'S ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL. STARTED LEAKING OIL IN THIS AREA.

ENGINE OIL LEAK (FIRE HAZARD). THE ENGINE OIL FILTER HOUSING (PART NUMBER 68105583AA) IS WIDELY REPORTED TO FAULTY BY OWNERS OF THIS VEHICLE YEAR (2014). THIS PART CRACKS UNDER ROUTINE DRIVING AND LEAKS ENGINE OIL ONTO HOT SYSTEM COMPONENTS, SUCH AS THE EXHAUST CROSS OVER AND TRANSMISSION, WHERE THE OIL BURNS AND CREATES A FIRE HAZARD. MYSELF AND MY PASSENGERS HAVE NOTICED THIS SMOKE BEFORE IT IGNITED. HOWEVER OTHERS HAVE REPORTED A FIRE. THE OIL LEAK GENERALLY OCCURS WHEN THE ENGINE HAS COME UP TO TEMPERATURE AND THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN MOTION LONG ENOUGH TO REACH NORMAL OPERATING OIL PRESSURE AND TEMPERATURE. THE PROBLEM OCCURS IF THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY OR IN MOTION, REGARDLESS OF ROAD CONDITIONS. THE LEAK IS NOT IMMEDIATELY DETECTED BY A LOW OIL PRESSURE, HIGH TEMPERATURE, OR OTHER SIMILAR WARNING, FURTHER INCREASING THE FIRE RISK. FURTHER, THE LEAKING OIL POSSES AN ENVIRONMENTAL DANGER AND IS HAZARDOUS. PRIOR MODEL YEARS HAD A DIFFERENT, METAL PART WHICH DOES NOT CRACK AND LEAK UNDER ROUTINE USE. IT IS BELIEVED WHEN THIS PART WAS REPLACED WITH A PLASTIC COMPONENT IN 2014+ MODELS, THE NEW, PLASTIC PART WAS DEFECTIVE OR INSUFFICIENT FOR ITS HIGH TEMPERATURE OPERATING ENVIRONMENT INSIDE THE ENGINE. THIS PART SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED BY THE MANUFACTURER (FCA). ATTACHED PHOTO SHOWS: OIL (LIGHT BROWN) POOLING BENEATH LEAKING OIL FILTER HOUSING (FOREGROUND) ON THE ENGINE BLOCK ITSELF.

2014 JEEP WRANGLER PENTASTAR OIL COOLER LEAKS WHICH POURS ONTO EXHAUST MANIFOLD AND STARTS ON FIRE. HAPPENED TO ME COMING HOME FROM WORK. LUCKILY I WAS IN THE DRIVEWAY AND I PUT IT OUT WITH MY EXTINGUISHER. OIL EVERYWHERE LEAKING DOWN ENGINE AND ON THE UNDER CARRIAGE. CAUGHT IT IN TIME AND NOTHING ELSE WAS EFFECTED. GOOD THING I WASN'T ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY WHOLE FAMILY IN THE VEHICLE. FCA US LLC SHOULD FIX THIS ISSUE. VERY SCARY ESPECIALLY WHEN UNEXPECTED. PLEASE FCA US LLC FIX THIS ISSUE SO IT NO LONGER HAPPENS TO OTHER FAMILIES. CAUSE IT SURE LOOKS LIKE IT'S A PROBLEM.

VEHICLE SHOWING CEL (CHECK ENGINE LIGHT) WITH NO PERFORMANCE ISSUES NOTED. CODE READ AND SHOWS P0520 RELATED TO THE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR SWITCH. AFTER REVIEWING FORUMS, DETERMINED THAT A TSB EXISTS BUT NO RECALL ALTHOUGH THE DESIGN OF THE UNIT HAS BEEN CHANGED DUE TO DEFECT. REPLACING THIS UNIT TOOK A CONSIDERABLE AMOUNT OF TIME AND EFFORT AS A LARGE AMOUNT OF THE TOP HALF OF THE MOTOR HAS TO BE REMOVED TO REVEAL THE SENSOR. REPLACED AND VEHICLE HAS BEEN OPERATING FREE OF THE CEL SINCE THAT TIME AND ACCURATE OIL PRESSURE READINGS ARE BEING RECEIVED. WITHOUT THE REPAIR, THE VEHICLE CANNOT PASS A NYS SAFETY INSPECTION AND FEATURES OF THE VEHICLE ARE DISABLED.

THERE IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH FAULTY OIL COOLERS THAT A BUNCH OF PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING AND JEEP SHOULD BE FIXING THESE AS A FAULTY PART. MANY OWNERS OF THE 2014 MODELS AND POSSIBLY OTHER MODELS HAVE EXPERIENCED CRACKED OIL COOLER HOUSINGS.

CLOCK SPRING- AFTER RESEARCHING ON THE WEB, THEIR ARE MANY PEOPLE WITH THIS COMPLAIN AND WE NEED TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT. MY STEERING WHEEL BUTTONS DO NOT FUNCTION, ALONG WITH THE HORN. NOT HAVING THE HORN FUNCTIONING IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I HAD AN INCIDENT WHERE I COULD HAVE DIED, SIMPLY BECAUSE OF MY UNFUNCTION CLOCK SPRING. A SEMI TRUCK WAS BACKING UP, NOT REALIZING I WAS BEHIND AND I COULD NOT USED MY HORN TO HUNK. IF IT WASN'T FOR ANOTHER DRIVER BY MY SIDE, THE SEMI TRUCK WOULD HAVE CRASHED ME. PLEASE WE NEED THIS TO BE A RECALL. THANKS
