Engine · at 45,233 miles · reported Apr 23, 2019
I bought my jeep 12/12/16 and it had 43,319 miles on it. On 2/7/17 at 45,233 miles I had the first engine replacement done. On 5/17/17 at 46,552 miles I had the transmission rebuilt. On 11/1/18 at 65,858 miles I had the second engine replacement. On 3/8/19 at 68,980 miles I had the third replacement engine installed. I got my jeep back on 4/15/19 and now I hear a ticking like sound and I'm told it could be an exhaust leak. Also, before I got the third engine installed the jeep would pop out of first gear when I start to accelerate, just like before. I talked to the mechanic who rebuilt my…
Air Bags · reported Mar 25, 2019
Airbag light come on for 2-3 seconds and turn off for 5 second to 1 minutes and come back on. Now light is permanently on. This could be related to the takata recall but my vehicle is not included.
Fuel/Propulsion System · at 100,000 miles · reported Mar 17, 2019
When filling the parked, shut-off vehicle with gasoline there is regular spillover. Regardless of gas station and pump, the pump does not detect fill and automatically shut off. This has been a frequent issue for about a year.
Steering · at 135,000 miles · reported Jan 30, 2019
My jeep is experiencing the "death wobble". It almost turned over on I-85 outside of atlanta. My daughter was driving at 55mph and there was a small dip in the road. The jeep began to shake uncontrollably. She could hardly control the steering wheel or the jeep. We were finally able to slow down enough (Almost rear ended twice) and pull over. This is not isolated. We had the jeep in for repairs before and everything listed for repair of the death wobble replaced. It is doing it again!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You need to recall these jeeps and make chrysler fix them before someone like my 23 year old…
Suspension · at 80,000 miles · reported Dec 19, 2018
My jeep has the "death wobble"- I've spent over $1000 trying to fix it. When going over 50 on a highway, a slow shake quickly turns into a violent shaking of the jeep back and forth until I'm almost stopped (5pmph-ish) on the middle of a busy highway. I was almost rear-ended the other day, and AM petrified to bring it on the highway now.
