2014 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

OIL FILTER HOUSING/COOLER SEEMS TO BE LEAKING. THIS SEEMS TO BE A WIDESPREAD PROBLEM WITH CHRYSLER PRODUCTS. I AM NOT SURE HOW LONG THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN OCCURRING BUT IT SEEMS TO BE GETTING WORSE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THERE WAS DING WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BOB POYNTER CHRYSLER LOCATED AT 1873 E TIPTON ST, SEYMOUR, IN 47274, TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE DRIVER'S FRONTAL AIR BAG NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN REPAIRED AS OF 05/29/20. THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF FAILURE AND A CASE WAS FILED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 7,000. *BF CONSUMER HAD A NEW ENGINE WITH 7,000 MILES ON IT, 184,000 MILES WAS ON THE CAR WHEN IT WAS PURCHASE. PASSENGER AIRBAG STILL NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.*JB

FOUR MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING A USED WRANGLER UNLIMITED I GOT A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AND CODES P0205 AND P0305. UPON READING UP ON THESE CODES IT IS A VERY WELL KNOWN ISSUE WITH THE 3.6L PENTASTAR ENGINE. THE INJECTOR COIL HAD ALREADY BEEN REPLACED IN CYLINDER 5 SO MY GUESS IS THE PREVIOUS OWNER HAD THE SAME ISSUE. IT HAS SLIGHTLY OVER 60,000 MILES ON IT AND IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER ENGINE WARRANTY. THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED TO ME WAS AFTER A 120 MILE DRIVE. I STOPPED FOR GAS AND WHEN I TURNED THE JEEP BACK ON THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON. *TR

TICKING NOISES WHEN VEHICLE IN MOTION FOR HIGHWAY DRIVING AND CITY DRIVING. LEFT CYLINDER HEAD CRACKS. *TR

I HAVE AN AIRBAG LIGHT ON MY DASH (SINCE 2016) WITH A CODE A DIAGNOSTIC FROM A CERTIFIED CHRYSLER DEALER STATING IT MATCHES THE RECALL FOR THIS VERY SAME PROBLEM (NEEDING THE CLOCK SPRING REPLACED BECAUSE OF DUST CONTAMINATION) HOWEVER THE VIN DOES NOT FALL WITHIN RANGE. I AM WORRIED THAT IN THE EVENT OF AN ACCIDENT, THE POORLY MADE COMPONENTS AND JEEP'S REFUSAL TO FIX THIS WILL RESULT IN UNNECESSARY INJURY.

OIL COOLER/OIL FILTER HOUSING AND GASKETS HAVE A KNOWN DEFECT THAT CAUSES OIL TO LEAK ONTO AND INTO ENGINE COMPONENTS, SUCH AS THE RADIATOR, CAUSING THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE. JEEP/CHRYSLER/DODGE/RAM TECHS KNOW THAT THIS IS A COMMON DEFECT, AND THE LEAKING OIL CAN AND DOES BURN, WHICH CAN LEAD TO A TOTAL ENGINE FIRE!!! I FIRST NOTICED THE ISSUE WHEN I SMELLED BURNING OIL. THINKING IT WAS JUST A MINOR ISSUE THAT COULD BE FIXED WHENEVER I HAD THE FREE TIME, I CONTINUED DRIVING FOR ANOTHER WEEK OR TWO UNTIL SMOKE STARTED COMING OUT OF THE ENGINE! I FINALLY TOOK IT IN BECAUSE THERE WAS WAY TOO MUCH SMOKE TO BE SAFE (FIRE?). THE TECH THAT WORKED ON MY JEEP, MIKE POLLARD, SAYS HE SEES THIS ISSUE ALL THE TIME, ADVISED ME TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS AND THEN FILE FOR REIMBURSEMENT WITH THEIR CORPORATE OFFICE SINCE IT IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND MY JEEP ONLY HAD 43,500 MILES ON IT (WELL UNDER THE 100,000 MILE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY). WELL, I DID AS HE ASKED, BUT CORPORATE CUSTOMER CARE IS USELESS, WILL NOT REACH OUT TO THE TECH AS ASKED, AND ARE DOING THEIR BEST TO NOT PAY BECAUSE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND THERE IS NOT A RECALL. EITHER WAY, THIS ISSUE CAN START A FIRE IF LEFT UNFIXED. JEEP KNOWS THAT THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE, YET WILL NOT DO A RECALL UNLESS FORCED (MONEY OVER SAFETY).

THIS COST ME OVER $2000, AND MY VEHICLE ONLY HAD 43,500 MILES ON IT. WHAT'S WORSE, IS THAT THEY REPLACED IT WITH THE SAME DEFECTIVE PART AS USUAL, SO NOW I HAVE TO WORRY THAT IT'LL JUST HAPPEN AGAIN SOON. PLEASE HELP!!!

THE JEEP WILL NOT START-STATIONARY. IT CRANKS OVER BUT DOES NOT START. THE JEEP IS EQUIPPED WITH A FAULTY TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE)

MY VEHICLE IS WELL MAINTAINED. OIL LEAKED ALL OVER THE ENGINE AND ONTO MY GARAGE FLOOR FROM A FAULTY ENGINE OIL COOLER & INTAKE GASKET SET. THIS WAS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR THAT I CAN'T AFFORD. MY MECHANIC (SMALL SHOP) FIXES THIS SAME REPAIR 2-3 TIMES A WEEK. THAT IS RIDICULOUS AND SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE TO REIMBURSE JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS THAT HAVE A HUGE OIL SPILLS TO CLEAN UP.

I HAVE RECEIVED TWO NOTICES ABOUT THIS AIRBAG RECALL. BOTH TIMES I CALLED THE SAME JEEP DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT AND WAS TOLD THEY WOULD CALL ME WHEN THEY HAD THE PART. THEY NEVER RETURNED A PHONE CALL EITHER TIME. TODAY, I CALLED A 2ND DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE FIXING THE RECALL IN A MATTER OF DAYS. THE FIRST DEALERSHIP THAT IS COMPLETELY ABDICATING THEIR RESPONSIBILITY IN REGARDS TO THIS RECALL IS JAKE SWEENEY CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM, 85 W KEMPER RD, CINCINNATI, OH 45246; (513) 782-1000

OIL LEAK ONTO TRANSMISSION; SOURCE IS FROM THE OIL FILTER ADAPTER HOUSING (PURSUANT TO CERTIFIED JEEP DEALERSHIP TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSIS). COST $1000 FOR REPAIR/REPLACE/FIX!
