2013 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

A WEEK AGO I NOTICED WHEN I STARTED THE JEEP IN THE MORNING THE AIR BAG AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS ON THE DASH CAME ON. THE CRUISE CONTROL QUIT WORKING ALONG WITH THE RADIO CONTROLS ON THE STEERING WHEEL. THE JEEP IS PARKED ON THE STREET. I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY FOR ABOUT 30 MIN. I RECONNECTED THE BATTERY AND STARTED IT UP. THE AIR BAGS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS WERE STILL ON IN THE DASH. THE STEERING CONTROLS DO NOT WORK. THE JEEP WAS PARKED IN FRONT OF MY HOUSE ON THE STREET.

A CONTINUOUS ISSUE WITH A DELAY OR COMPLETE NON OPERATION OF THE HORN WHEN HORN BUTTON IS "TAPPED". THE PROBLEM IS EASILY REPRODUCED, BUT TWO DEALERSHIPS STATE THE HORN IS WORKING AS DESIGNED. THE HORN ALWAYS OPERATES WHEN THE HORN BUTTON IS DEPRESSED FOR MORE THAN 1/2 SECOND. LESS THAN 1/2 SECOND AND INTERMITTENT OPERATION RESULTS. OCCURS IN ALL OPERATING CONDITIONS, INCLUDING ENGINE OFF. DIFFICULT TO WARN PEDESTRIANS IN A TIMELY MANNER AT TIMES WHEN INOPERABLE.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 70MPH. IT FELT LIKE THE CRUISE CONTROL KICKED IN AND THE JEEP BEGAN TO ACCELERATE. I TAPPED THE BREAK HOWEVER THE SPEED WAS INCREASING. I PRESSED DOWN HARDER ON THE GAS AND THE CAR SLOWED SOME BUT AS SOON AS I LET OFF THE BRAKE THE CAR WOULD SPEED UP. I PRESSED DOWN ON THE BREAK AND WAS ABLE TO GET OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGHWAY. A RED WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. I HAD TO PRESS THE BREAK TO THE FLOOR AND PULL THE PARKING BREAK. THE REAR TIRES WERE STILL SPINNING SO I SHUT THE JEEP OFF AND CALLED A TOW TRUCK. THE JEEP WAS TOWED TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP. THE JEEP IS STILL AT THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY ARE UNABLE TO FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I'M SUPPOSE TO PICK IT UP HOWEVER I'M AFRAID TO BEGIN DRIVING THE JEEP AGAIN.

AS I BEGIN TO PULL INTO HEAVY TRAFFIC, I HEAR AND SEE THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WARNING ALONG WITH THE SKID CONTROL LIGHT ILLUMINATING. THE CAR THEN STALLS LEAVING ME SITTING IN 70 MPH TRAFFIC. THE VEHICLE STARTS BACK UP BUT HAS A NOTICEABLE LOSS OF POWER. THIS LOSS OF POWER CONTINUED UNTIL I GOT HOME. WHEN I FINALLY GET HOME I USE A CODE READER WHICH INDICATED IT WAS A CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR. CODE P0344. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A MUCH WORSE INCIDENT AS THERE WERE NO MECHANICAL ISSUES LEADING UP TO THIS.
