SERVICE BRAKES
2015 JEEP WRANGLER, IN MOTION, TRAVELING STRAIGHT, ON HIGHWAY (ROADS WERE WET FROM RECENT RAIN) & APPROACHING TRAFFIC SIGNAL AT MAJOR INTERSECTION. SIGNAL CHANGED FROM GREEN TO YELLOW. I PUSHED THE THE BRAKE PEDAL TO SLOW DOWN. THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND, THE JEEP DID NOT SLOW DOWN. THE JEEP CONTINUED TRAVELING STRAIGHT. I PUSHED THE BRAKE PEDAL AT LEAST TWO MORE TIMES, DOWN TO THE FLOOR. THE BRAKES DID NOT RESPOND. THERE WAS A VERY LOUD "GRINDING" NOISE COMING FROM THE JEEP WHEN I APPLIED THE BRAKE PEDAL. THE VEHICLE CONTINUED INTO THE INTERSECTION WHERE IT CAME TO A STOP. THE BRAKES DID NOT SLOW THIS VEHICLE DOWN, THE BRAKES DID NOT WORK! THERE WAS NO CONTROL OF THIS VEHICLE'S SPEED. DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT. CHECKED OUT THIS JEEP THE NEXT DAY & FOUND NO PROBLEM WITH THIS JEEP & COULD NOT DUPLICATE CONCERN. WHEN I LATER DROVE THE JEEP HOME, THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON. FCA, CHRYSLER CUSTOMER CARE WAS NOTIFIED. CHRYSLER ASSIGNED A CASE NUMBER & CASE MANAGER. THE CASE MANAGER INFORMED ME THAT SHE CALLED THE SERVICE/DEALERSHIP (WHO SERVICED THE JEEP THE DAY AFTER THE EVENT) AND SHE WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE MGR. "JEEP IS OPERATING PERFECTLY & IS UP TO MY SATISFACTION". I INFORMED CHRYSLER, VIA PHONE & EMAIL, THAT THAT WAS NOT THE CASE AT ALL! I SENT CHRYSLER A WRITTEN, DETAILED REPORT OF EXACTLY WHAT OCCURRED WITH THIS VEHICLE. I ALSO STATED THAT THIS INCIDENT COULD HAVE ENDED VERY DIFFERENTLY, WITH INJURIES AND OR DEATH! I NEVER HEARD FROM CHRYSLER AGAIN. AS OF TODAY, CHRYSLER HAS NOT RETURNED ANY OF MY PHONE MESSAGES.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
FUEL BLOW BACK WHEN FILLING IT, AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS. NOT ABLE TO FILL AT NORMAL RATE. I HEAR FROM MANY PEOPLE THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH JEEPS. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IT COULD BE THEIR BALL IN CAGE FILTER DESIGN, OR O RING GASKETS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
2015 JEEP WRANGLER SAFARI RIGHT REAR SIGNAL LIGHT WORK INTERMITTINGLY. VERIFIED THAT NOT POWER IS BEING TRANSMITTED TO THE RIGHT REAR SIGNAL LIGHT FROM THE TIPM. JEEP WILL NOT WARRANTY BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T INSTALL THE AFTER MARKET TOWING WIRING KIT. THE KIT WAS INSTALLED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NEW AND THE PROBLEM FIRST STARTED AFTER THE VEHICLE HAD OVER 13,000 MILES. AT THE TIME THE PROBLEM WAS VERY INTERMITTING AND WAS ONLY NOTICED BECAUSE THE INSIDE SIGNAL BLINKER WOULD SUDDENLY BRINK AT A VERY FAST RATE. A FEW MINUTES LATE IT WAS OK. NOW IF YOU TURN THE SIGN LIGHT ON, AFTER ABOUT 5 SECONDS, IT START BLINKING VERY RAPIDLY INDICATING THE RIGHT REAR SIGNAL HAS FAILED AGAIN. THE VEHICLE NOW HAS 16,000 MILES AND THE SITUATION IS THAT THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME MAY OR MAY NOT KNOW THAT I AM MAKING A RIGHT HAD TURN.

VISIBILITY/WIPER

POWER TRAIN:DRIVELINE, EQUIPMENT:RECREATIONAL VEHICLE/TRAILER, EQUIPMENT:MECHANICAL, EQUIPMENT
AFTER HAVING THE CHRYSLER JEEP MOPAR PERFORMANCE PART# 77072353AB_FS INSTALLED BY A JEEP DEALER, THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE THAT I HAVE DISCOVERED. WITH JEEP VEHICLES THAT HAVE BEEN LIFTED USING THE OEM MOPAR 'JEEP PERFORMANCE PARTS' 4" LIFT KIT PRODUCT, WHEREBY FOLLOWING 'JEEP DEALER PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION' AND IN CERTAIN DRIVING SCENARIOS, THE REAR PROPELLER SHAFT COMES INTO DIRECT CONTACT WITH BOTH THE VEHICLE'S EVAP TANK ON DRIVER-SIDE AND FUEL TANK ON PASSENGER-SIDE UNDER CERTAIN RAISED FRONT INDEPENDENT RIGHT OR LEFT WHEEL ARTICULATION SCENARIOS AND I HAVE PERSONALLY INCURRED DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLES OEM PROPELLER SHAFT AND BOOT SLEEVE AND THE ADJACENT EVAP TANK AND FUEL TANK ITEMS FROM THE OEM PROPELLER SHAFT MAKING DIRECT CONTACT WITH BOTH THE EVAP AND FUEL TANKS UNDER THE VEHICLE. THIS 4" LIFT KIT IS A MOPAR SOLD AND JEEP DEALER INSTALLED PRODUCT AND THEY REFUSE TO REIMBURSE ME FOR REPLACING THE OEM REAR PROPELLER SHAFT WITH AN AFTER MARKET REAR DRIVE SHAFT THAT THEY RECOMMENDED AND INSTALLED THAT MITIGATES THE ISSUE OF ARTICULATION CONTACT OF THEIR OEM PROPELLER (WHICH IS LARGER IN DIAMETER THAN THE ALTERNATIVE SHAFT REPLACEMENT THEY SUBSEQUENTLY INSTALLED). I HAVE DOCUMENTED PICTURES AND VIDEOS OF THE OEM DRIVE SHAFT HITTING THE ADJACENT ITEMS UNDER THE VEHICLE WHICH I ALSO PROVIDED TO THE JEEP DEALER IN MY CITY OF RESIDENCE. HOWEVER, DEALER SAID THAT UNLESS THEY HAVE A SAFETY RECALL OR SOMETHING ELSE FROM CHRYSLER INDICATING THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE THEY CAN'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT FOR ME... FOR SOME UNLUCKY PEOPLE, THE GAS TANK RUPTURING AND CATCHING FIRE WILL BE THE ONLY EVENT THAT MAKES THEM AWARE THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM THAT CHRYSLER, JEEP, MOPAR HAVE NOT PREVIOUSLY REALIZED NOR ADDRESSED...

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
SIGNAL SAFETY: MY COMPLAINT IS THE POOR DESIGN AND SERIOUS SAFETY FLAW OF THE FRONT-END SIDE MARKERS ON ALL 2007 TO PRESENT DAY, JEEP JK/U WRANGLER MODELS. ALTHOUGH THESE VEHICLES HAVE LIGHTED FRONT-END SIDE MARKERS, THEY DO NOT HAVE A TURN INDICATOR FEATURE INSTALLED, CREATING A SERIOUS HAZARD TO DRIVERS WHEN CHANGING LANES, MERGING INTO TRAFFIC, OR SIMPLY TURNING. OTHER VEHICLES AND/OR PEDESTRIANS THAT ARE ALONG EITHER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ARE UNABLE TO VISUALLY SEE THE REAR OR FRONT OF THE VEHICLE, HAVE NO INDICATION OF THE DRIVER'S INTENTIONS WHEN PERFORMING ANY OF THE ACTIONS MENTIONED EARLIER. ALTHOUGH FEDERAL AND MOST STATE LAWS REQUIRE LIGHTED FRONT AND REAR WARNING/SIGNAL INDICATORS, I AM UNSURE WHAT IS REQUIRED FOR SIDE/ABEAM SIGNALS. THIS IS THE FIRST MODERN VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE THIS SIMPLE SAFETY FEATURE AND IT IS ONE THAT SHOULD, SIMILAR TO [EURO] REPEATERS, BE ON ALL U.S. DRIVEN AUTOMOBILES AND TRUCKS TO AVOID COLLISION, OR POSSIBLY LOSS OF HUMAN LIFE.

AIR BAGS
I WAS INVOLVED IN A FRONT END MOTOR VEHICLE COLLISION, WITH ANOTHER MOTOR VEHICLE INCIDENT, TO WIT THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG NEVER DEPLOYED APPROPRIATELY. WHERE IN WHICH I RECEIVED INJURY FROM THE COLLISION ACCIDENT. AS A RESULT OF THE COLLISION INCIDENTS, I FURTHER INQUIRED WITH THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENTS MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL, AND WAS INFORMED, THAT THE DEPLOYMENT CONTACT SWITCH LOCATED ON THE FRONT OF MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER, WAS LOCATED IN THE FRONT GRILL AREA, AND NOT LOCATED IN THE FRONT BUMPER AREA. RECENTLY BACK IN THE FALL OF 2016, I RECEIVED NOTICE FROM FIAT CHRYSLER JEEP CORPORATION. THAT MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLERS AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM HAD A RECALL ISSUE. WHICH FURTHER STATED, LET AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SYSTEMS RANGING BACK TO 2012 JEEP WRANGLERS, EXTENDING TO 2017 JEEP WRANGLERS. PLEASE BE ADVISED THAT AS A RESULT OF MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER COLLISION WHICH ENDED UP IN A TOTAL LOSS. I HAD TO PURSUE ANOTHER VEHICLE, HENCE MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER, AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM RECALL NOTICE. FURTHER BE ADVISED, THAT WHEN I HAD TO SHOP AGAIN FOR ANOTHER MOTOR VEHICLE, TO WIT MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. I HAD ASKED THE DEALERSHIP SALES PERSON, IF THE AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SYSTEM HAD EVER CHANGED FROM THE 2015 JEEP WRANGLERS, TO THE 2016 JEEP WRANGLERS? WHERE IN WHICH I WAS INFORMED THAT THE SAME AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT SYSTEMS IN THE 2015 JEEP WRANGLER'S WERE THE SAME IN THE 2016 JEEP WRANGLERS. WHERE, GIVEN THE FACT THAT MOTOR VEHICLE AIRBAG RECALLS BY OTHER MANUFACTURING COMPANIES, ARE BEING CALLED INTO QUESTION? IT IS MY CONTENTION, THAT THE 2015 JEEP WRANGLER AIRBAG APPOINTMENT SYSTEM THEN I HAD OWNED AT THE TIME OF THE COLLISION, WAS DEFECTIVE AS WELL. PLEASE FEEL FREE TO CONTACT ME ANYTIME REGARDING THIS ISSUE, OR ANYTHING ELSE RELATED TO THIS ISSUE. RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED

STEERING, SUSPENSION, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
MY 2015 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA UNLIMITED HAS DEVELOPED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND I DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. IT WILL BEGIN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE AFTER HITTING ANY SMALL BUMP ON THE ROADWAY AT SPEEDS RANGING FROM 50 MPH TO 70 MPH*. SHAKING IS SO BAD THAT I HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AS FAST AS POSSIBLE BECAUSE ITS VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL WHILE IT SHAKES. * I ONLY SAID AT SPEEDS UP TO 70 MPH BECAUSE THAT'S THE FASTEST SPEED LIMIT WHERE I LIVE. I HAVE NO DOUBT THAT IT WILL DO IT MORE VIOLENTLY AT HIGHER SPEEDS.

SUSPENSION, WHEELS
AT 34,000 MILES I STARTED TO EXPERIENCE A ROTATIONAL VIBRATION IN THE FRONT END OF MY VEHICLE AND THE DRIVERS FRONT SUSPENSION STARTED TO GET LOUDER OVER A COUPLE WEEKS SO I TOOK THE CAR TO A DEALERSHIP, THEY DIAGNOSED IT AS THE BALL JOINTS WERE WORN AND THEY SAID IT WAS STILL LOUD DUE TO TIRES AGE (WHICH WERE ROTATED WITH EVERY OIL CHANGE AT APPROX 4,000 MILES). THE TIRES WERE NOT WORN DUE TO AGE BUT INSTEAD CUPPED DUE TO DAMAGED SUSPENSION COMPONENT, THE DEALERSHIP THAT I HAD THE VEHICLE SERVICED AT ON 12/15/2016 AT 32,534 MILES FOUND THE TREAD DEPTH TO BE AT 8/32 OR GREATER. I TOOK THE VEHICLE IN A FEW DAYS LATER BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP THAT DID THE REPAIR AND THEY FOUND THE TREAD DEPTH TO BE AT 9/32.

THEY REPLACED THE SEALS AND RESEALED THE DIFFERENTIAL COVER, BUT NOTED THAT I WAS RESPONSIBLE FOR REPLACING THE FLUID IN THE DIFFERENTIAL.
