2014 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

THE RADIO WOULD NOT COME ON AFTER VEHICLE START UP THEN WOULD AFTER THE BATTERY WAS DISCONNECTED THEN RECONNECTED. PROBLEM CONTINUED DISCONNECTING BATTERY STOPPED WORKING AND POWER WINDOW CONTROLLS MALFUNCTIONED AND STARTED WORKING AGAIN. RADIO STILL DOES NOT WORK AND WILL SOMETIMES COME ON WITH BRIGHT SCREEN AND A VERY LOUD SOUND WHILE DRIVING. DEALERSHIP STATES NOT A WARRENTY ISSUE. ANOTJER MECHANIC STATES IT IS TIPM ISSUE AND WAS RECALLED IN OTHER DODGES. ALSO ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON.

MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH LIGHTS NOT WORKING, HORN NOT WORKING, WIPERS NOT WORKING OR NOT CUTTING OFF, CLOCK SPRING REPAIR, (ANY AND ALL STEERING COLUMN CONTROLS FAILING)

MY ENGINE LIGHT WENT ON AND THE DIAGNOSTIC REPORT CAME BACK AS THE OIL SENSOR BEING THE PROBLEM. MY JEEP ONLY HAS 39000 MILES ON IT AND THEY WANT $600 TO REPAIR IT. I SEE THAT THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND I FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED AS A RECALL.

CASTING SAND FROM THE HEADS HAS CONTAMINATED THE ENGINE COOLING SYSTEM LEADING TO MY RADIATOR AND HEATER CORE BECOMING CLOGGED WITH SEDIMENT.

THE FREEDOM ROOF LEAKS ALLOWING SEVERAL INCHES OF WATER TO BUILD UP ON THE FLOOR NEXT TO THE ACCELERATOR AND BRAKE PEDALS FOR THE LAST 3 YEARS I HAVE RETURNED FROM VACATION AFTER THE VEHICLE SAT OUTSIDE WITH SEVERAL INCHES ON THE DRIVERS SIDE FLOOR NEAR THE PEDALS

OIL COOLER HOUSING CRACKING UNDER NORMAL CONDITIONS CAUSING OIL TO LEAK. GIVEN THE RELATIVELY SLOW BUT CONSISTENT LEAK THIS PROBLEM CAN GO VERY EASILY UNNOTICED BUT RESULT IN CATASTROPHIC ENGINE FAILURE AND ULTIMATELY CAUSE ACCIDENTS. IF THIS PART COMPLETELY FAILS THERE MAY BE NO WARNING TIME AND CAUSE ENGINE SEIZE AND/OR PERMANENT ENGINE DAMAGE. PART HAS BEEN RE-DESIGNED MULTIPLE TIMES AND IS A VERY WELL KNOWN ISSUE IN MANY 2014 AND OTHER YEAR JEEP WRANGLER VEHICLES. PART SHOULD BE RECALLED AND VEHICLES SUSPECTED TO HAVE THIS PART INSPECTED FOR LEAKING OIL. IN MY SCENARIO I NOTICED DRIPPING OIL FROM AROUND BOTH SIDES OF THE TRANSMISSION BELL HOUSING BUT UNABLE TO TRACE TO THE SOURCE AT FIRST. AFTER READING A FEW FORUMS I LOOKED DOWN ALONG SIDE THE OIL FILTER HOUSING AND FOUND A PUDDLE OF OIL LAYING IN THE VALLEY OF THE ENGINE. MANY OTHERS HAVE REPORTED THIS VERY SAME ISSUE AND THE FACT THAT THE PART HAS BEEN RE-DESIGNED SO MANY TIMES AND CAN CAUSE SAFETY CONCERNS, I WOULD LIKE NHTSA SO PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS.

OIL LEAKING FROM THE OIL FILTER ADAPTOR HOUSING PER JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENT ON 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. THE ITEM IS BACKORDERED AND JEEP SERVICE REPRESENTATIVE ADVISED MY DAUGHTER NOT TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL IT IS REPAIRED. JEEP SERVICE DEPARTMENT TOLD US THAT THEY WOULD NOT PAY FOR RENTAL CAR OR PROVIDE A CAR WHILE THE CAR SITS AT DEALERSHIP WAITING FOR REPAIR. NO IDEA WHEN PART WILL BE BACK IN STOCK.

OIL FILTER HOUSING LEAK. $700 REPAIR. THIS IS A PIECE OF PLASTIC THAT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND REPLACED FOR GOOD WITH SOMETHING THAT WILL ACTUALLY HOLD UP. THIS PIECE FAILED AT 60000 MILES...

HEATER CORE PLUGGED UP WITH UNKNOWN SUBSTANCE OF FACTORY FILLED COOLANT, RESULTING IN POOR SNOW AND ICE REMOVAL OF WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER. 1356.00 REPAIR.

SUMMARY: OIL COOLER HOUSING CRACKED. THIS OCCURRED AT LESS THAN 51,000. WE WERE LUCKY THAT IT HAPPENED IN OUR GARAGE RATHER THEN WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE DUE TO THE OIL LEAK AND HAD TO BE TOWED FOR REPAIRS. IF WE HAD BEEN DRIVING IT COULD HAVE CAUSED ENGINE FAILURE. COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY BUT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON THEME WITH THE 2014S. REQUEST RESEARCH HELP *BF *TR
