2014 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

OIL ADAPTER HOUSING CRACKED FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 6 MONTHS. 1ST TIME CAUSED EXTERNAL LEAK AND IT WAS REPLACED.THIS TIME CRACKED AGAIN BUT INTERNALLY CAUSING OIL TO LEAK INTO COOLANT. CAUSED $3200 WORTH OF DAMAGE AND HAD TO HAVE COOLANT SYSTEM REPLACED AS WELL AS HEATER COIL AND HOSES. I KNOW OF 7 OTHER JEEP WRANGLERS THIS HAS HAPPENED TO RECENTLY.

FOR THE LAST TWO MONTHS, WHENEVER I ATTEMPT TO FILL MY CAR WITH GASOLINE, SHORTLY AFTER I BEGIN FUELING THE GAS COMES SPRAYING BACK AT ME. IN ORDER TO FILL MY TANK, I MUST BARELY SQUEEZE THE NOZZLE SUCH THAT THE GAS TRICKLES OUT. STILL IF I DON'T PERFECTLY STOP AND START AT THE RIGHT MOMENT IT WILL OVERFLOW. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO SEE WHETHER I WAS DOING SOMETHING WRONG OR IF THERE WAS A RECALL, AND THEY INFORMED ME IT IS A KNOWN AND COMMON ISSUE BUT THERE IS NO RECALL. I WENT ONLINE AFTER TO CHECK THE WRANGLER FORUMS AND IT IS, IN FACT, A VERY COMMON COMPLAINT FOR WHICH THERE IS NO RECALL.

CRACKED "OIL FILTER HOUSING ADAPTER." CAUSING OIL TO LEAK ALL OVER THE BOTTOM OF THE ENGINE, COULD POTENTIALLY START A FIRE.

NOTICED OIL ON THE GARAGE FLOOR IN JANUARY 2020. ENGINE IS LEAKING OIL FROM THE OIL COOLER THAT IS ON TOP ON THE ENGINE. COULD BE A FIRE HAZARD AS OIL DRAINS DOWN THE BACK OF THE ENGINE. VEHICLE HAS 86000 MILES ON IT BUT HAS BEEN LEAKING FOR A WHILE. NOW IT IS LEAKING VERY BAD AND CAN SMELL BURNT OIL WHEN DRIVING. LOOKING ON FORUMS ONLINE AND MANY 2014 TO 2016 3.6 ENGINES HAVE THIS ISSUE. ISSUE SEAMS TO BE FROM FAULTY GASKETS AND IN SOME CASES CRACKED HOUSINGS ON THE OIL COOLER. MINE IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY. I THOUGHT IT WAS FROM THE OIL PAN GASKET AT FIRST, BUT WHEN I STARTED TO SMELL OIL BURNING, I STARTED LOOKING CLOSER AT IT AND FOUND OIL LAYING IN THE VALLEY ON TOP OF THE ENGINE.

GAS PEDAL GOT STUCK FULL THROTTLE, I WAS PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND HAD TO ACCELERATE SO I PUSHED THE PEDAL DOWN AND WHEN I LET OFF I STILL WAS ACCELERATING AND JUST AHEAD WAS STOP TRAFFIC MADE A HARD RIGHT INTO A PARKING LOT AND THROUGH THE SHIFTER INTO NEUTRAL. ALL THE TIME MY FOOT WAS HEAVY ON THE BRAKE JET STILL LAUNCHING FORWARD ... WHAT A HAIR RAISING EXPERIENCE AND THE WORST THING MY WIFE THOUGHT I WAS DOING THAT ON PURPOSE:)*DT *TP

OIL COOLING FILTER HOUSING CRACKING/LEAKING ON 2014 MODEL WRANGLER JKU. EEP HAS A KNOWN EPIC FAILURE IS DESIGN FLAW IN ITS 2014 WRANGLER WHEN IT SWITCHED FROM A METAL OIL FILTER COOLER HOUSING TO A PLASTIC OIL FILTER COOLER HOUSING. HUNDREDS OF CASES OF THE PART BREAKING/LEAKING OIL ALL OVER LOWER ENGINE AND EXHAUST WHICH IS A FIRE HAZARD

MY OIL FILTER COVER CRACKED AND IS CAUSING OIL TO LEAK DOWN ONTO MY TRANSMISSION

THERE HAS BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ON A REAR MAIN SEAL LEAK. MY VEHICLE IS NOT EVEN CLOSE TO 150K MILES ITS BARELY AT 90K AND ALREADY HAVING A LEAK ISSUE. I WAS READING ONLINE THAT CERTAIN JEEPS RIGHT AT 16K WERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS COSTLY AND IT IS EXTREMELY UNCOMFORTABLE THAT MY VEHICLE GOES FROM BEING GOOD TO DRIVE TO HEY NOW YOU HAVE A REAR MAIN SEAL LEAK AND IT WILL COST YOU AROUND 850 PLUS DOLLARS. IT LEAKED OIL IN MY DRIVEWAY AND NOW I HAVE TO PAY SOMEONE TO CLEAR THAT UP.

JEEP STARTED LEAKING OIL AT 57000 MILES OIL LEAK WAS DUE TO A KNOWN PART FAILURE THE OIL HOUSING WHICH IS PLASTIC AND CAN EASILY CRACK. VEHICLE HAS ONLY BEEN SERVICED AT DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS BOUGHT. OIL HOUSING LOCATED UNDER MANIFOLD, OIL LEAK CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE A FIRE WHEN IT SPLATTERS ON MANIFOLD. JEEP KNOWS THIS PART CAN FAIL AT ANY TIME.

OIL COOLER FAILED AND CAUSED COMPLETE DISSPURSMENT OF OIL WHILE DRIVING. OIL LEAKED ALL OVER THE UNDERSIDE AND REAR OF VEHICLE. THIS COULD CASUE AN ACCIDENT OR FIRE IN THE ENGINE BAY. REPLACED IN OCTOBER 2019. WORKED TILL FEB 2020 NOW IT IS LOEAKING AND THE RESERVOIR FOR OIL COOLER IS SHOWING POOLING... AGAIN. THIS PART IS MADE OF CHEAP NON HEAT MANAGABLE MATERIALS. IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED. THIS REPLACEMENT IS NOT CHEAP OR AN EASY TASK.
