2014 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

HAVING NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS WITH MY TMPS. THERE'S AND OPEN RECALL ON IT BUT SAYS NOT WITH MY VIN. YET IS SPENT MONEY TAKING IT IN AND THEY CAN'T SEEM TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IT IS. PURCHASED USED 01/01/2018

MY 2014 WRANGLER HAS THE SAME SYMPTOMS AS THE JEEP WRANGLER CLOCKSPRING RECALL THAT IS FOR 2007-2010 YEARS. MY AIRBAG DEACTIVATION LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY WHEN I TURN THE STEERING WHEEL OR HIT BUMPS. IT HAPPENS 2-3 TIMES A DAY AND WHEN IT DOES THE AIRBAG CAN BE DEACTIVATED FOR UP TO 10-15 MINUTES BEFORE TURNING THE WHEEL OR GIVING THE STEERING COLUMN A GOOD WHACK BRINGS IT BACK TO LIFE. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS AND HAS BEEN GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN A TOLL ROAD SMOKE STARTED COMING UP FROM THE FLOOR OF MY JEEP. YOU COULD SEE IT AND SMELL IT. WE ARE TALKING A LOT! THERE WASN'T A PLACE FOR ME TO PULL OVER IMMEDIATELY. THE WORST PART IS HAVING MY 8 YEAR OLD SON IN THE VEHICLE WITH ME. DO YOU HAVE ANY IDEA HOW SCARED I WAS THAT MY JEEP MAY BE ON FIRE AND COULD BLOW UP WITH MY CHILD INSIDE?! WE PULLED OVER AND JUMPED OUT. I LOOKED UNDER AND THERE WAS A SMALL FLAME ON THE EXHAUST . MY JEEP DUMPED ALL OF ITS OIL AND IT SPILLED ALL OVER THE HOT EXHAUST CAUSING A FIRE. THE OIL WAS BURNING UNDERNEATH MY JEEP. THIS IS NOT OKAY. THIS DEFECTIVE COOLING HOUSING COULD EVENTUALLY KILL SOMEONE. I'M LIVID MY SON WAS IN THE VEHICLE. EVEN MORESO THAT THERE IS TONS OF COMPLAINTS AND YOU'VE DONE NOTHING! I'M EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED CHRYSLER! MY FAMILY HAS BEEN BUYING YOUR VEHICLES FOR CLOSE TO 20 YEARS. MAKING ANY OF US PAY TO FIX SOMETHING YOU ALL KNOW IS DEFECTIVE IS WRONG! AND SHAME ON ANYONE THAT DOESN'T SEE THIS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.

OIL PRESSURE SWITCH HAS GONE OUT. MY JEEP HAS LESS THAN 50,000 MILES ON IT. THE OIL PRESSURE IS FINE AND YET I NEED TO REPLACE THIS $45 SWITCH WHICH WILL I'M BEING TOLD WILL TAKE 4 HOURS BY THE DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE. THIS CAME ON AFTER MY LAST OIL CHANGE. DISCOVERED THE ISSUE WHEN MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WITH A CODE 520. PARTS MANAGER STATED THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY AND ON CARS WITH LESS THA. 10,000 MILES.

WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY (ACCORDING TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP) MY OIL COOLER HOUSING CRACKED AND LEAKED MOST, IF NOT ALL, OF THE ENGINE'S OIL INTO THE COOLANT SYSTEM. THIS OCCURRED IN 10 MINUTES AND EXTREMELY OVERHEATED THE ENGINE FROM THE TIME IT HAPPENED TO THE TIME I WAS ABLE TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY AND SAFELY PARK. THE OIL MIXING WITH THE COOLANT CAUSED IT TO TURN INTO A THICK MUD-LIKE CONSISTENCY THAT CLOGGED UP THE COOLING SYSTEM AND AFTER LETTING IT COOL DOWN I OPENED THE RADIATOR THEN A THICK BROWN OILY/COOLANT MIXTURE SEEPED OUT OF THE RADIATOR. SO THE RADIATOR WAS HOLDING PRESSURE PRIOR TO BRINGING IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP REPLACED THE OIL COOLER HOUSING UNDER WARRANTY ALONG WITH THE RADIATOR HOSES BUT IS NOW SAYING MY RADIATOR HAS A HOLE IN IT AND NOT HOLDING PRESSURE AND THEY ARE REFUSING TO COVER IT UNDER WARRANTY, DESPITE THE JEEP NOT HAVING ANY MECHANICAL ISSUES PRIOR TO A HOLE BLOWING OPEN IN THE ENGINE AND LEAKING OUT OIL. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO TEST THE ENGINE ANY FURTHER EVEN THOUGH IT RAN FOR 10 MINUTES WITH LITTLE TO NO OIL IN IT WHICH MOST LIKELY CAUSED PRE-MATURE WEAR. THE JEEP DEALERSHIP WANTS ME TO PAY $800+ FOR A NEW RADIATOR. I BOUGHT THIS JEEP 40 DAYS AGO FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND IT'S STILL COVERED UNDER THE 100,000 MILE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. THEY ARE TRYING TO GET MY JEEP OUT OF THEIR DEALERSHIP AS QUICKLY AS THEY CAN BY SPENDING THE LEAST AMOUNT OF TIME AND MONEY.

TRANSMISSION SUPPLY AND RETURN STEEL HOSE RUBBED ON TRANSMISSION HOUSING CAUSING THE STEEL HOSE TO HAVE A HOLE AND LEAK TRANSMISSION FLUID. HOSE DID HAVE A PLASTIC BRACKET THAT BROKE OVER TIME.

OIL COOLER HOUSING CRACKED. THIS OCCURRED AT LESS THAN 40,000. I WAS LUCKY THAT I NOTICED IT IN MY GARAGE RATHER THEN WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED FOR REPAIRS. IF I HAD BEEN DRIVING IT COULD HAVE CAUSED ENGINE FAILURE. COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY BUT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON THEME WITH THE 2014S. COME ON FCA CAN YOU SERIOUSLY CANT FIX THIS ISSUE. I MEAN REALLY.

VEHICLE BRAKES AUTOMATICALLY WHILE DRIVING , CAUSING THE ABS LIGHT TO COME ON AND THE VEHICLE BRAKES WHILE DRIVING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE RADIO STOPPED WORKING AS WELL AS OTHER BUTTONS ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AND THE STEERING WHEEL. BEFORE DISCOVERING THE FAILURE, THE CONTACT HEARD AN AUDIO INDICATOR AND A MESSAGE DISPLAYED FOR AN OIL CHANGE. AFTERWARDS, THE OIL CHANGE DISPLAY WARNING WAS NO LONGER VISIBLE, ONLY THE AUDIO INDICATOR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO ADVISED THE CONTACT TO RESEARCH ONLINE FOR OPEN RECALLS. THE CONTACT FOUND NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V288000 (AIR BAGS), BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE OF THE FAILURE AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 42,000.

WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY IN PASSING GEAR THE GAS PEDAL GETS STUCK AND ACCELERATES CONTINUALLY WHILE HAVING TO KEEP LEFT FOOT ON BRAKE PUMPING GAS WITH RIGHT FOOT TO DISENGAGE THE GAS PEDAL. THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED 6 TIMES IN A MONTH. EXTREMELY SCARY AND DANGEROUS!
