2013 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

EXTREME TEMPS WARMING THE JEEP UP AND TURNED ON THE DEFROST. THE WINDSHIELD CRACKED IN A CIRCLE TYPE PATTERN THEN MULTIPLE LONG CRACKS ALONG THE ENTIRE BOTTOM OF THE GLASS. VEHICLE WAS ONLY A FEW MONTHS OFF THE LOT AND NO ROCK CHIPS IN THE WINDSHIELD. *TR

GOT COLD OUT AND MY WINDSHIELD CRACKED BY ITSELF. JEEP REFUSES TO WARRANTY THE GLASS EVEN THOUGH I HAVE BUMPER TO BUMPER WARRANTY AND THIS WAS CRACKED OVERNIGHT IN THE DRIVEWAY. *TR

SEVERAL MILES FROM HOME I CROSSED A BRIDGE DOING BETWEEN 45 AND 50 MILES PER HOUR AND THE JEEP STARTED BOUNCING AND SHAKING SO BAD (LIKE IT HAD 4 SQUARE TIRES) AND VEERING TO THE LEFT. I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AS THE STEERING WHEEL WAS SHAKING SO HARD I HAD TROUBLE HOLDING ONTO IT. I BRAKED REALLY SLOW AND KEPT IT ON THE ROAD TILL IT CAME TO A STOP. I HAD JUST MET A VEHICLE ON A TWO LANE COUNTRY ROAD (WHICH ARE NOT VERY WIDE AND NO SHOULDER) AND WAS LUCKY THERE WAS NO ONE ELSE COMING TOWARDS ME, OTHERWISE IT WOULD HAVE BEEN A SERIOUS/FATAL ACCIDENT. THE DEALERSHIP LOOKED AT ONLY TO TELL ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE JEEP AND THAT I MUST DID NOT KNOW HOW TO HANDLE THE VEHICLE ON ROUGH ROADS. MY HUSBAND DROVE THE JEEP FOR SEVERAL MONTHS AND NOTHING EVERY HAPPENED TO HIM. OCTOBER 26, 2014....ONCE AGAIN I WAS CRUISING DOWN A HIGHWAY DOING 71 MPH AND THE JEEP STARTED BOUNCING ALL OVER THE ROAD......I DID NOT HIT A BUMP OR ANYTHING. AGAIN FELT LIKE THE JEEP HAD 4 SQUARE TIRES AND I ENDED UP WITH 3 VENTI COFFEES ALL OVER THE INSIDE OF JEEP. SEVERAL MILES LATER CROSSING A BRIDGE AT 35 MPH THE JEEP STARTED SHAKING ALL OVER AGAIN. I LEFT WORD WITH THE SALESMANS AS TO WHAT HAPPENED AND ONCE AGAIN THE JEEP WENT IN ONLY TO BE TOLD THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE JEEP. TODAY (JAN.9, 2015) MY HUSBAND WAS DRIVING THE JEEP AND CROSSED THE SAME BRIDGE WHEN I HAD THE FIRST ENCOUNTER WITH THE SHAKING OF THE JEEP........NOW HE BELIEVES ME THAT THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE JEEP. HE CALLED THE SALESMAN AND TOLD HIM WHAT HAPPENED.......ONLY TO BE TOLD THEY WOULD LOOK INTO IT. WE ARE AFRAID TO DRIVE THE JEEP BECAUSE ONE OF THESE TIMES WE WILL NOT BE SO LUCKY AS TO WALK AWAY FROM AN ACCIDENT......WE ARE AFRAID OF US AND ANOTHER FAMILY GETTING KILLED. WHAT DOES IT TAKE FOR THIS TO BE CHECKED INTO SERIOUSLY........SOMEONE OR A WHOLE FAMILY GETTING KILLED? *TR

I WAS DRIVING MY 2013 JEEP WRANGLER AND THE WIPER WAS ICED UP SO I TURNED THE DEFROSTER ON HIGH AND MY WINDSHIELD CRACKED. THERE WERE NO VEHICLES ON THE ROAD WITH ME AND NOTHING HIT MY WINDSHIELD. THE CRACK IS ABOUT 6 INCHES LONG RUNNING LATERALLY TOWARD THE DRIVER SIDE AND ORIGINATED RIGHT ABOVE THE RIGHT DEFROSTER VENT THE CRACK HAS NO EXTERNAL RIDGE AND APPEARS TO BE RELATED TO A BODY STRESS ISSUE. THE TEMPERATURE WAS 20 DEGREES AND THE ISSUE OCCURRED AT 3:20 PM. *TR

THE CAR BEGAN TO IDLE ROUGHLY--IT WOULD RATTLE AND SHAKE JUST SITTING AT A RED LIGHT. IF I TRIED TO JUST ROLL THE VEHICLE SLIGHTLY FORWARD, IT WOULD STUTTER. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, BUT THE MANUAL INFORMS TO WAIT A FEW DRIVE CYCLES TO SEE IF IT WILL JUST TURN OFF. PULLED THE DIAGNOSTIC CODE (P0306) AND IT WAS A CYLINDER 6 MISFIRE ISSUE. TOOK CAR IN ON 9 DEC 2014 AND THE ENTIRE LEFT CYLINDER COLUMN WAS REPLACED. ON 24 DEC 2014, THE SAME ISSUES BEGAN TO OCCUR AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED WITH THE SAME DIAGNOSTIC CODE. CAR WILL BE TAKEN IN ON 26 DEC 2014 FOR SERVICE. *TR

AT 50 MPH I CROSSED A TRANSITION ON AN OVERPASS AT A 45 DEGREE ANGEL. THE STEERING WHEEL SHOOK SO HARD I COULD NOT KEEP MY HANDS ON IT. I HAVE HEARD OF THIS ISSUE CALLED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" BUT NEVER EXPERIENCED IT. THE WAY TO STOP IT IS TO TAP THE BREAKS BUT I COULD NOT BECAUSE I WAS ON THE INTERSTATE AND THERE WERE CARS BEHIND ME. IT FELT LIKE THE SUSPENSION HAD BROKEN AND I WAS GOING TO PULL OVER THERE WERE 2 LANES TO THE RIGHT WITH CARS COMING AT HIGHWAY SPEED. I MADE AN APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER AND TOOK MY JEEP IN THE NEXT NIGHT. THE CONFIRMED THEY KNOW ALL ABOUT THE DEATH WOBBLE BUT REFER TO IT AS THE STEERING DAMPER ISSUE. I CALLED JEEP AND THEY FILED AN EXPEDITED CLAIM PROCESS BUT DID NOT CALL ME BACK WHEN PROMISED. WHEN I CALLED AGAIN, THEY HAD SOMEONE CALL ME THE NEXT WORKING DAY. HE SAID HE HAS NEVER HEARD OF THE ISSUE. I QUESTIONED HIM ABOUT IT AND EXPLAINED THAT IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR YEARS. HE DID NOT OFFER TO DO ANY THING. HE HAD CALLED THE DEALERSHIP BUT HAD THE FACTS WRONG. HE IS SUPPOSED TO CALL ME BACK. *TR
