ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
AT 167414 MILES FOUND CLUTCH SLIPPING, TROUBLESHOT TO CLUTCH BEING SATURATED WITH ENGINE OIL. PRIOR TO THE CLUTCH SLIPPING THE OIL FILTER HOUSING CRACKED TWICE AND REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY TWICE, SUSPECTED LEAK CAUSED CLUTCH TO BE SATURATED. DEALER PLACE DYE IN OIL TO VERIFY LEAK IS FIXED. ALSO TRYING TO WORK WITH DEALER TO REPLACE CLUTCH AT REASONABLE PRICE SONCE DAMAGE WAS CAUSED BY A WARRANTIED PART. WHILE TRANSMISSION WAS OUT ALSO FOUND TRANSMISSION FLUID LEAK FROM THE INPUT SHAFT SEAL I HAVE ASKED DEALER TO FIX THIS ISSUE, BUT ONLY RECOMMENDED A TRANSMISSION SERVICE, NOTHING TO VERIFY THE LEAK AND VERIFY THE INPUT SHAFT IS NOT SCORNED OR DAMAGED. WILL TAKE TO ANOTHER DEALER AFTER BEING CHECKED FOR THE DYE, ON THE RECOMMENDATION OF JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE. PHOTOS ATTACHED SHOW OIL AROUND CLUTCH, BELL HOUSING COATED WITH OIL AND THE INPUT SHAFT LEAK.

RANDOMLY THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON AND SHUT OFF THE SAME DAY. THE NEXT DAY IT CAME BACK ON AND WON'T GO OFF. THIS IS NEW. THE RADIO SKIPS EVERY COUPLE OF SECONDS AND INTERRUPTS ALL SOUND MAKING A POPPING NOISE FROM EVERY SPEAKER. IT DOES NOT MATTER IF I AM USING THE AUXILIARY SATELLITE AM FM OR EVEN DO YOU CONNECT DEVICE. USUALLY IF IT IS THE FIRST TIME THE VEHICLE IS STARTED THAT DAY THE RADIO WORKS FINE ALONG WITH EVERYTHING ELSE UNTIL IT IS SHUT OFF AND RESTARTED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A YEAR IT STOPPED FOR ABOUT A MONTH AND STARTED UP AGAIN.

THE MECHANISM OF WHAT HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE IS UNDETERMINED WHETHER IT WAS STATIONARY OR WHILE DRIVING. HOWEVER I NOTICED A MASSIVE OIL LEAK AFTER DRIVING. THE ENTIRE UNDER SIDE OF THE JEEP WHERE THE TRANSMISSION AND TRANSFER CASE ARE WERE COMPLETELY SOAKED IN MOTOR OIL. AFTER TAKING IT TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP, THEY DIAGNOSED IT TO BE A LEAK COMING FROM THE ACTUAL OIL COOLER HOUSING. COME TO FIND OUT MY VEHICLE HAS ALREADY PASSED ITS WARRANTY COVERAGE DATE. AND AFTER DOING A LITTLE BIT OF RESEARCH, IT SEEMS I'M NOT THE ONLY PERSON WHO HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH THEIR JEEP, NOT SPECIFICALLY JUST THE 2014 MODELS OTHERS AS WELL. OTHER THAN THE COMPLAINTS FROM INDIVIDUALS WHO HAVE PURCHASED A JEEP, I HAVE YET TO FIND ANY COMMENT FROM MOPAR, CHRYSLER, OR THE JEEP MANUFACTURER THEMSELVES ADDRESSING THE ISSUE OF HAVING A PLASTIC OIL COOLER HOUSING. FYI ITS NOT THAT EASY OF A REPAIR SO IT COULD BE QUITE COSTLY TO SOME.

TAKATA RECALL-I RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON MY 2014 JEEP AIR BAG. IT STATED THAT IT WAS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO TAKE STEPS TO REPAIR MY VEHICLE TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF MYSELF AND MY PASSENGERS. I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY LOCAL DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED MY JEEP. A FEW DAYS LATER THE DEALERSHIP CALLED AND TOLD ME THAT THEY DID NOT HAVE THE NECESSARY PARTS TO FIX MY JEEP TO MAKE IT SAFE. I ASKED WHEN THEY EXPECTED TO HAVE THE PART AND THEY SAID THEY DID NOT KNOW, THAT THE COMPANY HAD GONE BANKRUPT AND DID NOT MAKE THE AIRBAG. I TOLD THEM I DID NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE WITH THAT ANSWER AND THAT I DID NOT WANT TO DRIVE MY JEEP IN FEAR THAT THE AIRBAG MIGHT ERUPT CAUSING DEATH TO MYSELF OR MY PASSENGERS. I ASKED THEM IF THEY COULD DISASSEMBLE THE AIR BAG SO AS TO RELIEVE THIS POSSIBILITY OF INJURY OR DEATH AND THEY SAID NO THEY COULD NOT. THIS IS UNACCEPTABLE AND I AM REACHING OUT TO YOU AS INSTRUCTED IN THE AFOREMENTIONED LETTER. PLEASE HELP!

THERE IS CURRENTLY A RECALL OUR ON THE FRONT PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR (PAB). I SCHEDULED AN APPOINTMENT ON AT PREMIER CAPE COD ON MARCH 19TH TO HAVE IT SERVICED FOR THE RECALL ON MARCH 30TH, TO BE TOLD THEY DON'T DO RECALLS ON SATURDAYS. I WORK AND LIVE TWO HOURS FROM THIS LOCATION SO IT'S VERY INCONVENIENT FOR ME TO GET TO THIS LOCATION DURING THE WORK WEEK, AS I TRAVEL FREQUENTLY AS WELL. THE EARLIEST I CAN GET THE JEEP TO THE CAPE IS FRIDAY, APRIL 26TH AND EVEN THAT IS SUBSTANTIALLY INCONVENIENT - THEY ARE UNWILLING TO PROVIDE ME WITH A LOANER FOR THE SERVICE AS WELL. I'M DISAPPOINTED AND CONCERNED GIVEN THAT "AN INFLATOR EXPLOSION MAY CAUSE METAL FRAGMENTS TO PASS THROUGH THE AIR BAG AND INTO THE VEHICLE INTERIOR WHICH MAY RESULT IN INJURY OR DEATH." ANYWAY, JUST THOUGHT I'D PUT IN MY TWO CENTS.

ENGINE LIGHT IS ON DO TO OIL PRESSURE SENSOR. FROM EVERYTHING I'M READING THIS IS VERY COMMON IN THE JEEP WRANGLERS. WHY ISN'T THIS RECALLED. I WAS QUOTED $600.00 TO GET THIS FIX. I AM TOLD NOT TO DRIVE THIS AS IT COULD RUIN THE ENGINE.

AIR BAGS, ENGINE
I HAVE THE 2014 JEEP WRANGLER WITH ONLY 47000 MILES. I HAVE KEPT EXCELLENT CARE OF THIS VEHICLE AND IT IS USED ONLY AS DAILY DRIVER WITH NO ABUSE WHATSOEVER.JUST WITHIN THE MONTH OF 2/2019 A CODE; P0305 MISFIRE DEVELOPED WITH THE TYPICAL PENASTAR ENGINE "KNOCK" AND IDLING ROUGH. ALSO, THE LAST WEEK OF 2/2019 THERE WAS A LARGE OIL SPOT ON MY GARAGE FLOOR DUE TO AN OIL COOLER/OIL HOUSING LEAK. WE IMMEDIATELY CONTACTED THE SERVICE SUPERVISOR AT THE DEALERSHIP WHO STATED THAT THIS HAS BEEN A COMMON OCCURANCE AND THE OIL COOLER/HOUSING UNIT IS REPLACED OFTEN. HOW IT IS POSSIBLE THAT CHRYSLER CAN ALLOW THIS? AT 47000 MILES THIS SHOULD NEVER HAPPEN AND IS ENEXCEPTABLE.UNTIL THIS EXTENSIVE REPAIR IS COMPLETED THE VEHICLE IS IS RENDERED USELESS AND MY JOB IS NOW INTERRUPTED. NOW IN ADDTION TO THE MISFIRE I NOW HAVE THIS HUGE OIL LEAK TO CONTEND WITH; PLEASE REFER TO THE PICTURE ATTACHED OF THE OIL STAIN THAT WAS DISCOVERED ON MY GARAGE FLOOR.... THE ENTIRE BOTTOM OF THE OF MY TRANSMISSION/BELL HOUSING AND CROSS MEMBER COVERED IN OIL. MOREOVER I JUST RECEIVED AN LETTER INFORMING ME THAT THE PASSENGER SIDE AIR BAG ALSO IS RECALLED AND I HAVE YET TO ADDRESS THIS AS WELL. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER CHRYSLER PRODUCT AGAIN. I CAN'T TELL YOU THE LEVEL OF DISAPPOINTMENT AND BETRAYAL I FEEL FOR BUYING AN "AMERICAN MADE" CAR. I HOPE CHRYSLER/FIAT CORPERATE IS ENJOYING SHORT CHANGING THE CONSUMER BUY USING INFERIOR AND FAULTY PARTS TO SAVE MONEY AND RIP OFF THE CONSUMER THIS WAY. I AM SURE NO ONE CARES AND I AM JUST WASTING MY TIME BUT THIS SHOULD BE NOTED AND PEOPLE MADE AWARE.

THE OIL FILTER HOUSING AND OIL COOLER IS LEAKING CAUSING OIL TO POOL ON TOP OF ENGINE. THIS COULD CAUSE A FIRE DUE TO OIL RUNNING DOWN THE ENGINE AND GETTING ON THE EXHAUST.

TAKATA INFLATER. THE PROBLEM ISN'T THE RECALL. THE PROBLEM IS GETTING THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX IT IN A TIMELY MANNER. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY WILL HAVE PARTS THAT CHRYSLER (FIAT) IS RATIONING THEM. WHY IS MY SAFETY IN JEOPARDY BECAUSE JEEP WON'T APPROVE PARTS?
