Maserati's MC20 supercar this week spawned an open-top version and it goes by the name Cielo, Italian for “sky.” The car features a retractable hard-top roof complete with glass panels to give you the open air feeling whether the roof is up or down. 2023 BMW Alpina B3Alpina revealed its take on BMW's updated 3-Series. Alpina's latest B3 sees power increase to 488 hp and the interior benefit from new technology including larger screens for the instrument cluster and infotainment hub. 2023 BMW M3 Edition 50 Jahre BMW MBMW launched the M3 Edition 50 Jahre BMW M to celebrate 50 years of the M division. The sport sedan is limited to 500 units and priced to start at $96,695, and buyers can choose exterior colors last used on cars like the E30 and E46 M3 generations. 2023 Toyota 4Runner 40th AnniversaryAnother automaker celebrating an anniversary this week was Toyota which rolled out the 4Runner 40th Anniversary Special Edition. A total of 4,040 examples will be built for the U.S., each based on the 4Runner's SR5 Premium grade with four-wheel drive. 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit ReserveWe spent a week with the 2022 Jeep Grand Cherokee Summit Reserve and found it puts a bullseye on the luxury establishment. With quilted leather massaging front seats, five screens, night vision, and a V-8 engine, the Grand Cherokee lacks no luxury in this grade. 2023 Acura IntegraAnother vehicle we tested was the modern Acura Integra which arrived for the 2023 model year. Set to go on sale this summer with a starting price of $31,895, the modern Integra is a sporty hatchback with 200 hp and an available 6-speed manual transmission.

The prototype looks like testers we saw for the 911 GT3 Touring, though there are unique elements that point to this being another retro sports car along the lines of the recently revealed 911 Sport Classic.

I have had the radio in my Jeep replaced for the third time. I got a call from the dealership saying my new radio was in. I took my jeep in and had the radio replaced with the new one when I called XM to have it activated and the radio ID belong to a different name and address so it could not be activated because the radio ID belong to somebody else which means the radio was not new. It came out of another vehicle. I cannot believe this is the way that FCA does business and I’ve had to take my jeep then at least eight times for issues since I bought it new and I’ve had it for 13 months. I am never going to trust FCA again. I am going back to General Motors.

My 2006 Jeep Liberty rear window regulators have been replaced four times. We do not even use the rear windows so there is no reason for them to just drop while driving. Jeep will not do anything about this, and as I am seeing, this is a common problem.

I wanted to write and ask if anyone else has had a problem with their Jeep Liberty suddenly catching fire. I had this happen to me for no apparent reason. No warning lights, no strange sounds, nothing. I was driving along and LUCKILY a driver behind me honked his horn and flashed his lights to get my attention. I came to a stop at a stoplight and thats when smoke and flames started to come out of the vents and fill the interior of the Jeep. I pulled off the road into a convenience store parking lot, jumped out and ran inside. The fire department arrived in less than 5 minutes but my Jeep was a complete loss. I have attached the pictures to show the aftermath. THANK GOD that I escaped but sadly I was left with a pile of ash that my insurance company would only pay a depreciated value for the remains...

A number of times, the transmission felt as if a clutch was slipping. This happened first thing in the morning a number of times. The dealer changed something he called the valve. A week later - the same thing happened while climbing Mt. Washington, NH. I had to do a dangerous U-turn and had no engine braking all the way down. After an hour, the problem cleared. The dealer actually told me that there is no engine braking on this car... Chrysler said that if the dealer doesnt find the problem then they will give me the car back. Basically - they are calling me a liar. KEEP AWAY FROM CHRYSLER!!!

So I have a 2012 Jeep Patriot that at 107,000 miles dropped the tranny. It had a 100,000 mile warranty. I brought it into Macdonald motors in Bridgton, ME at 87,000 miles because it was acting up. They told me it was the spark plugs, not the transmission. Its the junk CVT, so I changed the plugs thinking I just wasnt used to that style of tranny. Helped with the skipping but not the hesitation and dead spot on take offs. In June we were getting ready to head to Moosehead for vacation and it started getting worse. I drove it right over to them again and asked to have it looked at before we left in case I needed to leave it. They sent a guy out, he drove it and said it was fine. This was still during the warranty period. They never made a record of it. Less than 10,000 miles later it completely quits, failing every test they can do. At this point it is now out of warranty- amazing how that happens isnt it. Because it is over warranty and Macdonald motors doesnt show multiple complaints on it, I am stuck with the entire $4000 bill. There was obviously something wrong with it the whole time and Macdonald was avoiding the warranty, with jeep playing right along. Between me, my inlaws and my father we have bought 7 jeeps since 2000. There will not be another. I suggest everyone avoid Chrysler products, especially jeeps, and do not trust Macdonald motors. Your warranty means nothing.

The customer service provided by Jeep and its affiliated mother company Chrysler is just plain AWFUL!! I have a 2006 Jeep Liberty and the window regulators on my car have broken THIRTEEN times since Ive owned the vehicle. Jeep was willing to repair the first 12 and has since refused to offer to pay the $475 it would take to repair the next broken regulator. Would YOU be naive enough to pay $475 dollars for something that happens THIS frequently? How would you feel if Jeep and Chrysler both said they werent willing to help you? And, suppose another regulator breaks next week - am I expected to pay $475 AGAIN??? My window is currently held in place with masking tape because the motor that powers it suddenly died (thirteenth time!). People can see how easily they can get into my car now.The replacement parts are faulty, the service for this takes 3-4 hours at a time, and Ive never once gotten an Im sorry or a thank you for your patience. You do the math - thats 36-48 hours of my life WASTED on THE SAME ISSUE. My time means nothing to these companies and neither will yours. Chrysler doesnt care about you. Theyve been giving me any excuse they can find to NOT help me! And Jeep has been no help since the issue should have been fixed during THE FIRST REPAIR! My most recent regulator issue broke on 4/7/17 and Ive been arguing with Chrysler and Jeep for TWO MONTHS because neither of us want to pay for the ** service. Why should I fix it? Why should I keep my car? Why should I ever buy any Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/Ram products ever again?

2015 Jeep Patriot Sport 11,600 Miles - I purchased a Jeep Patriot brand new in 7/2015. Today I take it for a oil change and the transmission is leaking where it connects to the engine. I was told the tranny has to be replaced but they cannot tell me when it will be fixed. Chrysler and the dealership refuse to provide a loaner. All their customer service people say is I understand your frustration and then say I just have to wait. I was supposed to go on a family prepaid, non-refundable vacation tomorrow. GREAT customer service Jeep. Im sure glad I bought such a reliable, brand new vehicle that you back so well!! What a joke!!!

I have a 2012 Jeep Rubicon that is sitting under a tarp at the dealership I purchased it from, waiting for a replacement cylinder head. Apparently, this is a known issue to Chrysler and instead of contacting owners to replace the heads, they are riding it out to see who all complains about it. Well, mine has cracked and two weeks later still no cylinder head. I opened a case with Chrysler Jeep customer care and have a case number. Finally, I talked to my case manager after four days of calling and he tells me it will be another week before the dealership even gets the new one and refuses to escalate my complaint higher. I have a $38,000 vehicle and I cant drive it. What am I driving? A Ford Focus. Really? Not even comparable. Beyond angry.

We bought a jeep from Airpark Jeep in Scottsdale, AZ on October 1st 2016. Airpark finance department told us in writing that Chase Bank was our lender. We received the payment book and promptly made our first payment and set up auto payment to Chase Bank the first week of November. On November 21st, we started receiving phone calls from Ally Financial stating we missed our payment!We never received notification from Airpark that Ally held the note on our Jeep and not Chase Bank. We never received any loan payment information indicating we had a loan with Ally Financial. We did receive loan payment information from Chase bank so we promptly paid the loan. Airpark discovered there are/were two loan contracts created for our vehicle, BUT they neglected to notify us that they submitted our contract to a new lender.We continue to get daily phone calls from Ally after we escalated the calls to Allys management team where they assured us the calls would stop, and they would be working with Airpark dealerships financial department to get this straightened out ASAP. The Dealership financial management became involved after we couldnt get responses or returned calls from our finance contact person. Airpark has assured us this is being taken care of but we continue to receive harassing phone calls from Ally Financial every day! We now have to wait and field the calls and pray that this mess is cleaned up BEFORE it is submitted to the credit agencies which will destroy our credit!!!!SERIOUSLY?!? We are being harassed DAILY for something we cant control and Airpark Finance department now states it is out of their control. How did they let this happen and NOT notify their client to any changes???

I travel a lot and had my oil changed out of state. Come to find out the dealership didn’t seal my oil filter properly and has been dripping oil. I contact the dealership in Albany Ny to only find out they want me to drive 3 hours to have my oil changed there again. First off why would I go back when they did it wrong the first time. Secondly it’s a 3-hour drive with dripping oil. So I contact Jeep directly only to find out there is absolutely nothing they can do for me. Seriously, I have had owned other cars and dealerships have always been great offering any help in anyway. All I’m looking for is 1 free oil change so I don’t have to pay $150 in a month for 2 oil changes. I’m really starting to rethink buying a Jeep. Especially knowing how they cant help me at all. They couldn’t even get a hold of the dealership to even speak to them. That right there should tell you how great they are. If I could have given it a zero or even lower I would have.

Jeep Extended Warranty Scam! If you just bought a New Jeep and you opt for
Jeep Extended Warranty Scam! If you just bought a New Jeep and you opt for the Lifetime Warranty then you have just been SCAMMED! Here is what happened to me, to prove my point. I bought a New 2017 Jeep Renegade on Jan 2018. After some thought and searching for an Extended Vehicle Protection plan, I decide to go with Mopar’s Vehicle Protection (MVP). So, I called Mopar, and the salesman told me that as soon as the Manufacturer Warranty ends then, the Extended Warranty would kick in!Well, Folks, This Was a Major Lie! The salesman NEVER said that this replaces your Manufacturer Warranty the Day that you buy it! AND it will automatically insert itself back to the date that you bought the vehicle! So, basically, you are paying for the Manufacturer Warranty! How stupid do I feel? I feel very stupid at this point! Who in their right mind would pay for a warranty that is FREE for 5 years? I know if I was told that this warranty would take the place of the Manufacturer Warranty from the time you bought it, I would say, “Hell-NO!” This is a Major SCAM People!So, I called Mopar (800-521-9922) and asked to speak to Admin to tried to explain that the Salesman at Mopar lied to me by not telling me that this Warranty would run Concurrent with the Manufacturer Warranty (Take its place) and that I would be paying for my warranty from the get-go! Now I don’t know about you folks, but who in their right mind would pay for something that is given to them for FREE? So, I tried to explain this to “Danu”. I don’t know the spelling of his name, but that is how he said it when I talked to him on June 28, 2019, @ 12 PM Mtz. He told me that this is correct and that I will get a refund back minus $1000 for the time that I was on this Extended Warranty Protection plan from Mopar, even though, Mopar (Jeep) was already given me for 5 year or 60,000 miles for free! I asked to speak to a supervisor of Manager and he said there isn’t any and then transfer me to a survey on how well this call went! LOL, of course, I gave the LOWEST possible score that I could give him! And, I kissed my $1000 goodbye! Needless to say, Jeep has just put another unhappy customer on the street to tell the masses what is going on behind the curtain of deception! So, people if you feel like being SCAMMED And throwing your money down the ** then just opt into the Jeep Lifetime Warranty Program! T. ** Colorado

For the second time in less than 2 years my rear window regulator broke. First time it cost me $350.00. Now they want another $170.00 to fix it, plus it cost me $65.00 for them to tell me what was wrong with it. I told them to tape it up and forget it. I am not working at this time and cannot afford the companys incompetence. I cannot believe that with so many complaints on this that the company has not recalled this defective component in their vehicles. Am I angry? You bet. I am looking for a different vehicle today, forget them. I loved my vehicle but cannot afford this problem every time I turn around.

I bought a 2008 Jeep Liberty. I purchased it off of the used car lot, however, it only had approximately 3,000 miles on it and had never been previously owned. I have been having problems with my drivers side window not being able to go down most of the time. Although when I did get it down, it would always go up. Finally, it stopped altogether and the switch actually broke off completely. I spoke with a person at a Jeep dealership about this. He quoted me a price for the part then let me speak with the labor department. When I spoke with them regarding the labor, the man did not have to look up the price. He knew right away down to dollars and cents. After reading about the same problem over and over, it seems like this is obviously a defect on Chryslers part and this needs to be recalled.

2014 Jeep Cherokee Limited - Never liked how my transmission shifted but was told by salesman that is how the 9 speed reacted. Received recall in April 2015 for PCM and TCM. Had the updates installed. Informed Jeep dealership there was an issue with my tranny. Made appt on Jun 25, 2015. They couldnt verify my concern but would note it as such. Stated they did install a new flash update. On July 1, 2015 I was stopped at an intersection. Light turned green, partway through intersection my jeep came to an instant stop. My park sense, ignition, and crash warning lights went off as well as my transmission. I could not get my vehicle started. After several attempts it started and as I shifted to drive I heard a loud clanking sound. I was able to hobble the jeep to the dealership. As of today, July 7th, they have ordered a valve body and transmission wiring harness. My vehicle has less than 9000 miles. The instant stall could have caused a serious accident with the potential for a fatality. Thank goodness it was during early morning hours. I am very frustrated as Jeep knew there were issues with these transmissions yet they placed them on the market. I still owe several thousand dollars on this rig that I now fear will continue to have issues. I do not know how long it will take to receive the parts and complete the repair.

Let me start from the beginning. I bought a brand new 2015 Jeep Renegade. First week the brakes and rotors had to be changed then week 2 I took in for capless gas tank not letting me fit the nozzle in and an extremely rough idle. They did a software update on it and said nothing was wrong with the gas tank. Next, I take in again because motor is extremely rough and still not able to put the nozzle in without having to fight with the nozzle and force it in. Salesmen and managers all experience this and the extremely rough idle. They tell me the parts are on back order so I take to another dealership who does 5 more motor updates and I call customer care about the parts being on back order and them not being able to fix the rough idle either. She tells me they would overnight the parts. This actually takes a week.I ask for a rental car and they tell me that there none available because of the long weekend which is a lie so I ask Sarah the customer care lady in charge of my case if I can rent my own and be reimbursed, she tells me yes. I go pick up my car a week later and still vibrates off and on like a week later. At this point I have had it in 4 times for the same issue. The customer care lady would do nothing! She tells me I have to keep taking it in as long as it takes! I was so frustrated by her customer service and the lady at the car service center that I just traded it in and lost 4000.00 on trade in! Their customer case managers are the worse people to have to deal with! And to top it off, they said they wouldnt pay for the rental car because I got rid of the piece of junk and they closed the case!

Repair Issues - An improper or inferior repairProblem: On the 24 Nov 2010, I came into the Springfield Jeep and Chrysler dealership because my car had ran hot the day before. They said the problem was the therostate, but they could not tell which one was not opening so they said both had to be replaced. So I left my car and they replaced the first one and they had to order the second one. I returned on 2 Dec 2010 to have the second one replaced. Then two months later, my car ran hot again. So I was told to bring the car back, but the car did not run hot for them so they said they could not find out what the problem was so I left with my car and was told if it runs hot again bring it back. In two more months it ran hot again, again nothing happened in which they could not tell me what was going on. This continued until a week ago, when my car ran hot and would not cool down and I could not make it out to the dealership who had serviced it. I was told to take it to Liberty jeep and Chrysler in Hinesville, GA, where it is today. They told me something foreign was placed in the radiator and that I need a new radiator, new engine and air conditioner unit because the problem with my car was not fixed. It had gotten so bad everything was going wrong. Prior to this, my car was serviced in Maryland where I lived --at Freds Jeep ad Chrysler in Laurel, MD. I have a Jeep Patriot 2007, Silver which I purchased in 2008. So basically, I only had this car for two years. I am very dissatisfied with this service and unhappy about my car because now I do not have a car.

I like this car because it gets good gas mileage, it has a satellite radio, heated seats, heated mirrors and radio controls on the steering wheel. Also it has a sunroof that I enjoy a lot.

But other than that, it has been a very reliable vehicle and all I have had to do is have it serviced.

I own a 2006 Jeep Liberty that I purchased new. I had several problems with the window regulators breaking and the windows falling down or failing to roll back up. The first few times these were replaced under warranty. After my warranty expired, my back two windows broke and fell down. I called to find out what this would cost and was told about $400 per window. I did not have nearly $900 to shell out to have this fixed when there is an obvious problem with these windows in this model year. Last year, I found out Jeep decided to extend the warranty on these windows for model years 2006-2007 for 7 years. I called my dealer to find out about this warranty and was asked for my Vin number, they ran the number and told me my car did not qualify as it was past the cut off month - mine built in March 06 and they said it was for anything after May 06 and later. The letter says nothing about this! They said I could have them fixed and pay for it and then try to get my money back from Chrysler Jeep. I am a single mother and dont have that kind of money to get these fixed for a problem that Jeep is very aware of! This is very unsafe as your car can easily be broken into if the window starts to fall. All someone has to do is push down, reach in and open the car. I currently have wedges stuck in between the glass and door to try and keep these up. It is ridiculous. I cant use my windows and I will never be able to sell this car or trade it in with this problem not fixed. The cost is too expensive that no one else will want to pay to have it done. I am stuck with this car that was poorly designed that Jeep is very aware of and now will do nothing about it.

I own a 2002 Jeep Liberty w/ 3.7L/V6 engine. The main issues is the RADIATOR made of combined plastic and aluminum components. I had my faulty radiator replaced 5 times since I bought it due to horrible leaking! This design flaw of PLASTIC components, COMBINED with the leaking the radiator ALWAYS RESULTS to ENGINE DAMAGE DUE TO 1) valve gasket busted, 2) coolant mixing into the ignition chamber or within the cylinders, 3) Valve seat problems... ALL causing CYLINDER MISFIRES. The downside... is VERY, VERY expensive as in the thousands of dollars! Radiators hose are also troublesome. There are many issues with Jeeps product and 3.7L engine design, that many in the World wide web consider it a JUNK (SCIENCE). Wondering, they have discontinued the LIBERTY design?What I have observed is the MIXED plastic components also found in its interiors, electronic issues, fan clutch issues, power steering noise issue including rack & pinions, hoses and belts and become easily TOO rotten, I have been upkeep with maintenance: Synthetic engine oil, transmission fluid exchange, Coolant exchange, Rear diff exchange, Air filters, BELTs and tensioner, etc. BUT still it boils down to the Radiator plus minus ENGINE cooling components. FEEL the HEAAATTTTT! LESSON Ive learned. STAY AWAY from a JEEP PRODUCT!

My wife was driving our 2010 Jeep Liberty and pulled out from a red light.
My wife was driving our 2010 Jeep Liberty and pulled out from a red light. The Jeep would not stop accelerating and she was going 60mph in a 25mph. She was pushing the brake with one foot and holding the gas pedal up with the other foot to try to get it to stop. It wouldnt stop until she put it in neutral. The brake should override the gas pedal but didnt. This Jeep had the APP sensor replaced due to defect 11 months ago and after being towed to dealership, I was told it was the floor mat that came with the vehicle from the dealership. It was towed back to our home where it still sits undriven. I cant believe after two incidents they act as if we are making this up. There seems to be issues with Jeeps drive by wire system and the APP sensor is an issue. Why not leave the old cable system alone? It worked fine for 50+ years.

To Whom It May Concern, I’m writing this letter to voice our frustrations
To Whom It May Concern, I’m writing this letter to voice our frustrations with the Jeep brand, and express our concerns for other owners of the 2013-present day Jeep Cherokee. In July of 2017, my now fiancé purchased a 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk 4x4 from Ramsey Motors in Riverside, MO. The vehicle at the time had roughly 24, ** miles, it was a one owner vehicle originally purchased new from Gladstone DCJ & R in 2015.On approximately June 18th-19th, the car would not start for my fiancé to make her commute to work. She found a ride, and I had MOPAR roadside assistance tow the vehicle to Stateline CDJ&R of Kansas City for diagnosis. On June 21th, a representative of Stateline called to tell me a PRNDL switch was the root of our issue and quoted me to replace. I protested, believing the issue to be caused by a failing alternator, however being ”highly qualified technicians” I agreed, and Stateline followed through with the service. We picked the car up from Stateline on 6/29/18.The morning on 6/30/18 (yes the next day!) the car failed to start at a gas station in Pittsburg, KS, I instructed my fiancé to take the vehicle to Jay Hatfield DCJ&R in Frontenac, KS. A diagnosis by the service tech that day suggested… a failing alternator! Jay Hatfield apologized for the Stateline’s mistake, quoted me to repair, and promised the car returned to us by the end of the following week.The next few days were spent communicating with and agreeing to a 50% refund of our service fees done by Stateline, we picked the vehicle back up from Jay Hatfield on 7/6/18, I replaced the battery as a precaution the next day. 19 days, 2 dealerships, over $1,500.00 out of pocket, we finally had our vehicle back and felt comfortable with it again. How wrong was I!In early September, the vehicle failed to start on several occasions. Being that Jay Hatfield last had their hands on it, and frankly I found them to be honest and straightforward gentlemen, we made the 100 mile trip back to Jay Hatfield with the vehicle for a 2nd diagnosis. Jay Hatfield kept the vehicle for about 4 days, repeatedly stated to me the vehicle started each time they tried, and returned it to me. I felt like the boy who cried wolf! Are these service departs downright over and done with me? We’re not crazy, the vehicle is malfunctioning, we don’t drive 100 miles for a service appointment for fun & games.We made it through the next 30 days or so without an issue, until the morning of 10/10/18. While leaving a doctor’s appointment and going to work, the car died on my fiancé in traffic. A complete loss of power to the vehicle, no dash lights, no acceleration, nothing. The vehicle was pushed out of traffic, eventually regained power on its own, and driven home where now it sits dead in the driveway. Emergency lights are nice to have when a vehicle is stalled in traffic, my fiancé was not afforded this luxury!This is the final straw, it is clear as day that Chrysler/Jeep builds an inferior product, and maintains inferior means of training technicians to diagnose the very vehicles they sell to the public. The vehicle is nothing more than a $32,000 lawn ornament. Bringing me to the purpose of this letter, as stated above, we are collectively through with CDJ&R vehicles we want nothing to do with this Jeep Cherokee. I am writing with hope that somebody of purpose takes notice, and chooses to take the extra steps to address a customer’s complaint even when their technician is stumped. It is clear there is a deep electrical issue with these vehicles that needs to be investigated. A stalling vehicle in traffic, and subsequently pushing it out of traffic in the rain is a terrifying, extremely unsafe, and completely avoidable situation. I urge you all to take this into consideration when the inevitable “next one” arrives on your doorstep, hopefully that situation turns out better for the customer. If you have any questions, or wish to discuss this topic further, I can be reached via email or on my cell @ **. Thank you for your time.

I had rented a Jeep compass 12/09/16 and that day I had a roll over accident. I drive professionally and that day I drove at a safe speed for the road conditions. Speed at about fifteen to twenty mph before applying the brake. It had snowed and there was ice conditions. I attempted to stop at a stop sign on a paved road base when the car began to shut down (clicking noises) but the car seemed to pick up momentum. As the car ran through the stop area. The road changed from paved base to a dirt road base. I continued to apply the brake. As the car came upon the dirt road I was hoping the dirt road would provide grab but the momentum continued. The car slid from about twenty feet when applying the brake before the stop sign plus across about a twenty-foot dirt road base slipping for a total of about forty feet. As I viewed the ditch (luckily no water in it) I was headed for, with a ten foot drop, I thought I did all that I could and prepared for the hurt that I and the car will have. And now, two days later, I use the term terminator. I felt the car had its on will. Applying the brake did nothing. I hope this vehicle is recalled because I could of easily not have been viable now.

Do Not Buy a Jeep! I purchased a 2014 Jeep patriot about three months ago. There is a problem with the brakes. When you apply the brakes they squeal. The dealership told me that Jeep changed the composition of the brake pads to a less expensive material. This stuff makes terrible noise. It wakes up the neighborhood when I go to work in the morning. You cant take this Jeep to any place to go hunting. You can pull into or out of a parking lot without people noticing the poor quality of the vehicle. Most people believe that I am not maintaining the car. It has less than 10,000 miles on it. I took it in once and complained. They changed out one set of pads. Now the other side is making noise. Driving this vehicle is very embarrassing. I dont want the Jeep anymore. The old expression was that is a hulk of junk, now my expression is that is a hulk of jeep junk. Buy a Ford.

Check Engine Light/Software Updates - To begin with I am glad that you are
Check Engine Light/Software Updates - To begin with I am glad that you are reading this, on the other hand I am sad. Simply because you would not reading this unless you have had problems with your vehicle. I bought a new 2015 Jeep Renegade Trailblazer, bad mistake. This is the fifth Jeep I have owned and let me quite frank about it, it is a piece of garbage. If I had known the thing had been made in Italy I would not have bought it, much less traded my 2010 Jeep Liberty for it. At this date it has less than 20,000 miles on it and I have the records to show that it has had over 20 software updates done to it. Lemon law, right, the only thing that is yellow here is the Jeep representative that will not return my calls, and at this point the service manager at the dealership will not return my calls either. They know the vehicle is a piece of (well you know what).Right, I am pissed, but who cares out there? I am writing this just to blow some steam off. Vacation time comes around and Im afraid to go anywhere far in it. Thats sad, new vehicle and no trip anywhere. Now, let me say this. I have found out the motor of this thing was designed by the same man who designed Maseratis, (or so I have been told), well he might know fast motors, but he dang sure is not an electronics guy. Really, JEEP should take pride in the fact that they used to be made in America and that they have served in many wars and stand up for the American people that bought their products. By doing so, Mr. JEEP guys, just take this piece of heap that you call a vehicle and stick it. Just pay off the remainder of my note. And in return, I promise you, I that I will never make my driveway look that bad again, by having a Jeep parked in it. If anybody out there, has any suggestions, feel free to comment about it.

I used to own a 2010 Jeep Patriot. I have driven Jeep for 21 years until today, 12/8/14. The vehicle in question was not paid off and not even five years old. Both ball joints went bad in the vehicle and had to be replaced. This is unacceptable for a vehicle this young. The first ball joint was fixed under warranty. The second ball joint went bad not even a full year later. I contacted Jeep about the issue and faxed them all of my paperwork from my mechanic. I was then strung along for over two months and finally got an answer that they would not reimburse me the part and labor for putting in the other ball joint. The customer service representative that handled my case I found to be condescending and aloof. So for Jeep to save a couple of hundred dollars they are willing to let a customer go who was willing to stick with Jeep for life. I figure within my lifetime I would have bought at least five more vehicles from Jeep. Well no more. I have formally broken my relationship with the brand and went with a Japanese competitor. To anyone who reads this stay away from Jeep because they do not take care of loyal customers! I do not want to see any other families spend hard earned money on a product that breaks and is unreliable as the Jeep Patriot.

Currently, new power train motor mount, car is stalling and stops. Chrysler changed my dealership. Antwerpen treated me poorly and sold a defective vehicle with rust and all. Currently, the car is at Tate in MD. All Im asking for is an extended warranty. Many more parts have been changed. The trouble is that the dealership cant duplicate problems. They have to use on star. Even then, I was told by Mr. ** that they cant duplicate problem. I have an extended history of service with the vehicle. It requires its own file box. I need assistance in order to obtain an extended warranty.

We have an 2010 Jeep Liberty Limited with a Sky Slider Roof that from the time we bought it used has been nothing but trouble. We bought the jeep two and half years ago from a Chrysler dealer. It was warrantied and after a week and half of ownership we took it in and had the roof checked out. It would not slide open from the back and a made a clicking noise. After much complaints and phone calls the dealership had it repaired but it took at least 1.5 weeks for the repair of roof because they didnt have a person that knew how to fix the problem. The noise is so loud that you cant enjoy your radio or conversations. The dealership said they did the repair out of courtesy and that I would had to pay over $1500 for the repair. Now, the roof is broken again and will not close all the way!!! I have been looking to find someone who knows how to fix it but no one will touch them. These roofs should be on recall!!!

On or about May 16, 2012, I began experiencing a horrible mold type odor emitting from my AC unit of our 2012 Jeep Liberty. On May 21, 2012, I brought our 2012 Jeep Liberty to the service department of the Faricy Boys Jeep Dealer in Colorado Springs, CO. They kept the vehicle for two days, diagnosed the problem and replaced the evaporator core. I picked up the Jeep and immediately detected a rubber type odor. I contacted the service adviser and was informed that the odor was the coating on the new evaporator core and would disappear in a couple of days.On June 1, 2012, while driving to work, I experienced the same odor and again returned the Jeep. I spoke with the service manager, who agreed the moldy odor still exists. He suggested possibly misting the vehicle to get rid of the smell. This was unacceptable and would only mask the cause. The Jeep was left at the dealership again with a request for a loaner vehicle. The service manager informed me that it was not their policy to provide loaner vehicles. We are making monthly payments of a new vehicle purchased by us to provide necessary transportation. We now do not have use of the vehicle due to a defective AC systems or component and are required to submit to the policies of the Jeep dealership. Jeep engineers have been contacted by the mechanic and have suggested contaminated antifreeze. This Jeep is an absolute lemon and we want it returned to the dealership.

From the moment I purchased this vehicle I have had nothing but problems, constantly. I bought it new off the lot in 2011 and paid an extra $5k for the warranty. Every few months I have to take it to the dealer for repairs: Twice for exhaust leaks caused by broken exhaust bolts, fuel pump, radiator, water pump, rack and pinion, drive shaft, twice for inside fan blower, left motor mount twice, right motor mount, 8! times and counting for a vibration that cannot be determined, even after an engineer from Chrysler flew out, 2 a/c condensers, spark plug coil, exhaust manifold, rear light cover melted from poor design, air conditioning lines, play in the transmission, oil pan replaced... I mean the list goes on. The kicker is that I have never once even taken this vehicle off road. The bottom is spotless!After endless hours on the phone constantly I have yet to receive anyone at Jeep who wants to resolve the issue. The offered me a CDI number for employee pricing, when I went into the dealership to explore the sales guy laughed at me and told me he has way better deals. I would discourage anyone from buying a Jeep ever. All my friends, family, and coworkers have a running joke about me and my Jeep. So sad, especially when Chrysler was bailed out billions of our tax payer money! In addition, I am a disabled service connected veteran of the US Air Force. And this is how I am treated by a company that touts their support of vets! Beyond disappointed.

Its a 2007 Jeep Compass with 42,000 miles. This has been the worst car ever! This will make the second time the clutch is failing, both times within less than 12k miles and a little over a year. First time it happened I knew it could have not been my driving ( I never had issues with clutches before and I bought it brand new). The dealer replaced the t/o bearing and clutch plate. The dealer was in shock because they had no clue what caused the clutch and bearing to shatter.Now I am at a second time, out of 3/36 warranty and I am ** because the dealer did not know what the root cause of my problem was. The sad part is that this is not the only problem with the car. It has had multiple issues that the dealer can never catch it doing. I mean it is awesome when it decides not to start. No battery click, no starter engaging, no cranking, nothing. Then 10 mins later, oh it starts fine.

2012 Jeep Liberty automatic transmission has a loud clunk when up-shifting
2012 Jeep Liberty automatic transmission has a loud clunk when up-shifting or down-shifting. It sounds like its coming from transmission or drive shaft u-joint. I took it to the dealership and the technician replicated the problem on the Jeep as well as another Jeep on their lot. The dealership contacted Chrysler and was told that Chrysler was aware of the problem, but has no fix or repair to correct it. They stated that it may be a software problem with the transmission control module(?). This has happened ever since the Jeep was new and it now has 5,000 miles on it. One of these days, the transmission and/or drive shaft is going to being lying on the road. And, all this time, Chrysler admits that they have a problem!

I have never had as many issues with a brand new car as I have with used cars. All my previous cars I bought used can put well over 150,000 miles on them and never had any issues except regular maintenance. I decided to buy a brand new jeep and have only owned it 2 years. Nothing but issues, and no help when I take it in to get it fixed. I keep trying to tell them my transmission is slipping, but they keep telling me it’s just the computer. Definitely not... Jeep sucks as a manufacture and business. Horrible customer service.

The water pump on my 2009 Jeep Liberty went bad at 35,000 miles. It is 2 weeks out of warranty and they will not fix it. To top it off, when the case manager said that they will not approve the fix, she would also not let me speak with her supervisor or anyone else. Apparently, they let their lower level case managers make the final decision. A water pump should not go bad for 150,000 miles on todays vehicles. I am starting my anti-Chrysler/Jeep campaign today. I will never buy one again. It is a shame that this is what American car companies have come to. They cant design and make equipment that last past 35,000 miles without breaking.

I purchased my 2007 Liberty used in 2009. I immediately began having trouble with the windows. The mechanisms were faulty and all the windows fell, one by one! Although the warranty had ran out, Chrysler replaced all four. Now, its the air compressor! They said the compressor, dryer and lines all need replacing which is going to cost an outrageous $1,100.00! Ugh! I will have to get a loan in order to pay them for the work they are supposed to be doing, which has not been done after a week in the shop. I waited a week, called and checked on my Liberty. Well, now they cant find the parts! All the dealer’s list has having them on their shelves, but they actually dont. This past February, I actually thought about trading it in on a new Honda Civic. Yes, I am feeling a hard kick in the backside right now for not doing it. Let this be a warning to all those that are looking to go with a Chrysler product. Buyers beware!

Major car problem, dont buy a Jeep. I purchased a 2012 Jeep Patriot in December of 2011. I was in the process of moving 900 miles over the 4th of July weekend 2012 when the car just stalled on the inter-state. Neither the highway patrol person, the tow person nor myself was able to get it to start. I had to have it towed and my U-Haul trailer towed separately (at my expense) 20 miles away to the nearest Chrysler dealer, where it sat for 3 days before anyone could look at it. Meanwhile, in order to continue my move, I had to borrow my son-in laws vehicle with a trailer hitch because there is no rental agency that will rent a car with a hitch to tow. I drove to my new home and now have to drive back 800 miles to pick up my car. Will Jeep reimburse me for my time, the gas for 2 extra trips, the hotel or even the meals? No, Jeep says that I should have gotten a rental even though I couldnt get a rental, so no luck. The service department where my car was checked says that they could find nothing wrong but that they were told by Chrysler corporate office that there have been other instances of this happening with no apparent cause. So Im supposed to drive 800 miles and pick up my car and just hope for the best.

Transmission kick down to 50 when doing 60mph, dangerous. Chrysler will not help. They know everyone is having the same problem and their priority is to have the vehicle fixed so everyone buy one so they all sit in the shop while they get paid and we pay bs. Anyone know of a lawyer something? Its time the U.S. opens their eyes because they think they will always get away with it. Its not just one vehicle, it’s multiple vehicles.

With less than 3,000 miles my trans (2018 Jeep Compass Limited 4x4) malfunctioned while on the expressway. I lost all power to the engine. Thankfully I was able to exit safely. Towed for service to the dealership. Valve body harness replaced and said it was good to go. Driving home from the dealership it wasnt shifting correctly and eventually had no gears at all and need to be towed back the next day. My car got a new transmission. The next problem was the front windows wouldnt roll down. Back for service, a corroded module inside the door was the problem. No explanation as to how or why this happened other than it must of been installed that way. Picked up car the next day and while driving home my HVAC would not switch modes, and the navigation system came up without prompting, returned within 10 minutes from pick up and back in for service. Its been in the repair shop 4x in less than a month and currently in for a week today with latest electrical issue. Thankfully my service department is backing me when I say this car needs to be taken back and Im currently working with my dealership to make this happen. I have zero confidence in its dependability and am afraid to drive it.

I love my Jeep Patriot. It is extremely reliable, and in wonderful condition. Since my car is front wheel drive, it is common for my front tires to skid in the rain if going at a fast speed. I love the color of my vehicle, and the shape of it. The trunk of my car is very spacious, I am able to fit a lot of things back there. Also, the back seat of my car is spacious. I enjoy having cloth seats because it is hot where I live, and leather seats would burn me. The only complaint I have in regards to my vehicle would be concerning the middle seat in the back row. It is uncomfortable to sit in that seat because there is not much space to put your legs. Sometimes I wish the car was a little more technologically updated, but other times I love the simplicity of my car. Less technology, less problems.

Finance manager screwed up our lease so bad that he had to drive to Rockford to have us re-sign a new lease. He processed the original and didn’t send in the new one. I had been making payments on the account number I received and not the one he sent in. In the end, we ended up with 5 inquiries on our credit score, a new alias as he misspelled my last name, dealing with proving my payments with bank statements, a harassing phone call from the dealership wanting payment over the phone, a repossession notice/Chrysler saying we were current, and a GM that wouldn’t return our calls. Luckily, Chrysler Finance has been the only one that has been helpful and straightened things out for us.

I took this to the Jeep dealer 2x and its been in there for 3 days now and they still cant find what is wrong. I also took it to a Goodyear place. They found after 2k miles of getting an oil change, I had no oil, yet I have no leak. My concern is when I lose power when I turn into traffic, the cars or trucks behind me - when the white smoke is in their face - dont know Im not going anywhere and they can cream me.

I was heading home from a weekend away in my 2007 Jeep Commander with 62,000km on it and I heard a weird noise coming from the engine compartment. Then I smelled antifreeze and I start losing power. So I pulled off the highway and find a safe place to park, opened the hood and noticed that the fan blades that were attached to the water pump were hitting the alternator and I also noticed the antifreeze pouring out everywhere. I called road side and they told me that a tow truck was on its way, but I had nowhere to stay as I was several hours away from home and no rental car company was open to rent me a car as it was late at night. So I spoke with roadside assistance and they assured me that a rental car would be covered while my car was getting fixed. So I found a place to spend the night and rented a car the next day to drive home.

In Jan my Jeep Patriot with 13,000 miles suddenly stopped on the highway. Dealer could not find a problem. On March 3, a 150 miles from home, it happened again. Nearly got crushed by a tractor trailer. Engine light came on. Had it towed the nearest Jeep dealer. Had to rent a car to get home. After three days dealer could not find the problem and suggested I call Jeep customer service. I did on March 6th. Customer service gave case # **. Said they would assign the problem to a case manager and she would call me on March 7th. I would also get an email from them confirming case number and their agreement to pay for the rental car. Neither happened on March 7th. I have called customer service 4 times since then and left messages for the case manager to call me. No callback. I emailed the Jeep executive office on March 8 to ask for help. No response. The dealer still has my car a 150 miles from home. It is now 10 days. I would suggest you think twice before buying a Jeep.

After the hitch recall was conducted I have lost capabilities of my vehicle
After the hitch recall was conducted I have lost capabilities of my vehicle due to the manufacturer (JEEP). I bought a 2006 Jeep Liberty CRD delivered by Jeep with a trailer hitch and wiring. The tow rating of 5000lbs was the only reason the jeep was purchased with the benefit of a diesel engine for better mpg. I was informed by mail a recall was necessary to prevent damage to the fuel tank and fire in case of an accident. When I asked the service manager at Ourisman Jeep in Clarksville, MD, I was told the N46 recall consisted of an inspection of the installed hitch and a possible replacement hitch if the original failed inspection. I was told there should be no other issues. When I got the Jeep back, I was told the hitch was replaced and I was good to go. While waiting on the Jeep, I read the paperwork which stated my vehicle did not come equipped for towing (it did come equipped for towing) and that I could not tow with the hitch that was now installed. I asked about this and was told by the service manager at Ourisman it was just legalese to cover their butt and not to worry, tow as before. I became concerned as I use the Jeep regularly to tow and have not used it since as I am concerned if the tow hitch Ourisman installed fails I will be held liable as Jeep says I cannot tow in the paperwork. I emailed jeep and received the following: Thank you for contacting the Jeep Customer Assistance Center. We regret to learn of your concerns regarding the ability to tow with this new hitch. We regret to inform you that we are unable to diagnose or advise if your vehicle is safe regarding if you can tow with this new trailer hitch that was installed. There are too many variables involved and a detailed inspection of your vehicle is required for proper diagnosis. If you choose to use the new hitch for towing, you are responsible for any damage it may or may not cause.Based on that I wrote back asking why I went from a vehicle that could tow to one that couldnt and why it wasnt mentioned previously. The response was: We reviewed your concerns further in regards to obtain further clarification on if you are able to tow with this new hitch. FCA US LLC and the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration have agreed on this repair action. The repair procedure set out by FCA US LLC meets these requirements that were set out by the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The trailer-hitch assemblies installed as part of this campaign are intended only to provide rear structural reinforcement. Hitch-balls were not to be installed and customers are not advised to operate their vehicles with exposed hitch-balls. We apologize this information does not assist you with your concerns; however, we must stand behind our decision to advise you not to tow with this hitch.I am unsure who else to actually contact as the manufacturer and the dealer have now basically stolen from me the only reason I own the vehicle. I also dont understand how they would replace a hitch when I told them I use it for towing and later say it wasnt their call. I did email the BBB, they should respond in 30 days. I contacted NHTSA and received this in response: Thank you for contacting the U.S. Department of Transportations Vehicle Safety Hotline Information Center. For recall inquiries on your specific vehicle, safety seat, or other equipment please contact the manufacturer. We hope that you find this information helpful. However, if you need additional information on our services please feel free to contact us at 1-888-327-4236.I started out just wanting the jeep back to where I can tow. But since Jeep refuses and is saying that it was approved by NHTSA to get lost or at least thats what the last email from Jeep seems to say, I dont want it anymore as I cant use it. Now I think based on the paperwork I likely cant even sell the jeep to anyone planning to tow as even though it was rated to tow it now has paperwork saying not to. And even had Jeep offered to buy it back and give credit toward buying another Jeep/Chrysler/Dodge I wont. I wont buy another Chrysler product after this. This has completely turned me off the Company, even though I have been a lifelong Mopar Enthusiast, having owned a 68 Roadrunner, 87 Ram and a 2002 Quad Cab Dakota that was one of my previous tow vehicles. So now I have to begin a search for another vehicle that meets the need the Liberty was filling so I can have a vehicle to tow with; the ideal being a small 4x4 with a tow capacity of at least 5000lbs. And find a way to sell or trade the Jeep as I cannot justify continuing making payments on a vehicle I cannot use due to the fast one pulled by Jeep.

I have 2 Jeeps. One is a 2012 Jeep Patriot that has minor issues that havent cost a ton. The other is a 2017 Jeep Compass that has had major financial issues recently. I have an extended warranty on the 2017 Jeep as I bought it used. I took it to my local Jeep dealership when it started hesitating and engine lights went on. They claimed it was a spark plug, maintenance issue that cost me over 500 dollars. Then less than 2 months later same issues same lights on. I took it back to dealership and they diagnosed it with a throttle body problem that was going to cost me an additional 700 dollars (not under warranty). I towed it away but had to pay the 130 for the diagnostic problem they should have seen/fixed the first time. My 2012 Jeep has a 4wd light on ever since I took it to same dealership to fix a recall problem. My honest mechanic said the dealership pinched the wires when they fixed the recall problem. I will never buy another Jeep or go back to Newport Jeep for anything.

My husband and I purchased our Dream vehicle in 2009 and have had nothing but bad and dangerous experiences with the vehicle. It all started while driving on a very congested highway when the Jeep went over an uneven patch of road. It began to buck and lose control. We were shaken and scared, as my husband veered the vehicle to the right side of the highway. We made an appointment with our local dealer, and they found nothing wrong with the Jeep. This happened a second time, and again, we took it to the dealer where this time, the tie rod was replaced and we were given four new tires and an extended warranty for our troubles. Months later, while driving yet again on the highway, the vehicle began to do the same thing--shake and convulse, and the brakes would not work properly. We have contacted Chrysler Corporation and have spoken to several employees who want us to continue taking the Jeep in for service, except one gentleman who basically told me to just deal with it! We believe Chrysler Corporation is very much aware of the problems with these vehicles and that they are just playing it off and ignoring the potential danger. We do not feel comfortable in trading this vehicle in and having someone else come after us and purchase this extremely dangerous vehicle. Is Chrysler Corp. waiting for us to become a statistic and our children having to file suit against them for our deaths? It is a shame that such a multi-million-dollar company does not take their customer complaints seriously and stand behind their products. But I guess, once the vehicles are sold, we are all on our own. We will continue to fight for what we feel is right morally, legally, and human!

Having major issues with my Leased Jeep Grand Cherokee 2018. Every person I turn to, is turning me away. I have left several messages with Jeep on my case #** and no one has gotten back to me. I have called into Jeep everyday for the last month. I have names, dates, and no callbacks! Only aggravation! My car contains mold, I have taken my vehicle in for service 3 times already and every service center tells me there is nothing wrong with my car. During this time my car is in service, I had to rent a car (at my expense) because Jeep will not provide me with a loaner. I have been in and out of service centers since August. As the time goes by the smell is getting stronger and stronger. It has come to a point where I cannot even use the car. Mold is a health hazard and I will not put myself nor my children at a health risk! I do not want this car! I want to cancel my lease agreement and not have to deal with Jeep ever again! This is experience has become a nightmare from Hell! I dont know who else to call at this point! At this point, I will take legal action and file a lawsuit against Jeep!

So bad. The dealer and Chrysler have locked me out for any further attempts to have issue resolved. They will do that for you cant pursue lemon LAW. Navigation is always resetting on its own while driving. And at acceleration it wont move. It has about a 4 sec delay on take off. Almost got killed by trucks on highway when I try to shift lanes on take off. Please people do not buy Chrysler. I am saving you money and stress. Worst SUV I have ever experienced.

My 2006 Jeep Liberty was rode off when the driver lost control and it went off the road and into a ditch and hit a brick barrier. The air bags did not deploy, as the impact was enough that the vehicle was unrepairable. I am disappointed knowing that there was a safety issue in that the air bags that are equipped to save lives did not deploy even though the vehicle hit front on. No one was hurt badly as a result but knowing that the one thing that we ensure when we buy our vehicles, that being safety was at risk, is certainly disappointing and could have been fatal.

My transmission went out in my Jeep. I was so happy that I purchased the lifetime warranty until I took my jeep in and found out that they will not pay for my transmission because they said the oil pan rusted and the transmission fluid leaked out. The jeep dealership never mentioned any rust or leaks when I got my oil changed, there is no light that comes on on the dash to indicate low fluid and no dip stick to check the fluid. I paid an extra $3000 for that peace of mind but now I have to pay another $3000 for a new transmission.

I bought this car brand new and have now had it for 2 years. It has been the worst car I have ever had in my life. The windshield is a magnet for chips and you can tell that it is bad quality, have had two chips and one crack already driving on paved roads. The paint is also cheap as it chips very easily with normal driving. And the biggest issue other than all the recalls, is that my car takes the most expensive oil which is full synthetic and for some reason it is empty at 3,000 miles. Have taken it to the dealer and even called Jeep and nobody seems to be able to fix the issue. They just tell me to keep adding oil because these cars are notorious for doing that.It is a safety issue because the car stalls while driving since it is constantly running out of oil, but neither the dealers or jeep seem to care. Thats not to mention all the problems I had with the radio trying to get Android Auto to work properly, jeep kept telling me that the problem was I needed new usb cable but in the end I found out on my own that the actual problem were the apps on the radio. Basically jeep never has answers to anything, you have to figure it out on your own like you are the one getting paid to do the job. Best thing I can do now is get rid of this jeep and never do business with them again.

Check engine light is a problem and after going to the dealership and paying 500+ to fix the problem, it still came on. I like the car overall but the remote start feature is deactivated when check engine light is on. The radio also doesnt have CD player and only plays sat radio or iPod/phone. The gas mileage isnt that great and could be better. Also, most of the repairs are very costly. Nevertheless, I like the look and color of the vehicle. It has heated seats and remote start which was what I was looking for in a vehicle. The sunroof is an added benefit as well.

I purchased a 2012 Jeep Patriot Latitude in February 2012. I immediately noticed problems with the wiper blades coming on, dash lights began to dim, radio light display unable to see. I set a service appointment with dealer purchased from. Their review of problem was no problem could be located, even after I typed a detailed list of the items mentioned. Well, here we go again. I set the service appointment again, as the problems have gotten worse, now the AC will not cool and with the wiper, dash lights, radio display are still not working properly. So, I will see what the service department says tomorrow. Unfortunately, I paid cash for the thing, and what a mistake that was. I am 76 year old, gray-headed female; tell me out there, will I need an attorney to get the dealership to stand behind the warranty?

My lumbar support periodically gives me and other drivers a rabbit chop to the left kidney while driving down the road. Periodically, when you adjust the electronic lumbar support on the drivers, it will pop and thump you in the lower back. Too bad, even though this has happened to multiple drivers during the 6,000 miles Ive owned the vehicle for, since the dealer cant duplicate the problem, my experience doesnt count. If this was a rattle that I was hearing, or a shake that I was feeling, Id understand the need for an ability to duplicate the problem requirement to fix. But a kick to the back? Thats not opinion, thats fact. If I kill myself in this car one day, check the seat. Chances will be good that this was the real cause of the accident!

I purchased my jeep in February of 2015 from Mancaris Chrysler in Oak Lawn, IL. My experience with the purchase was horrific, as they sold me a 2 wheel drive for the price of an 4X4. Tried to tell me I had an 4X4, but my insurance company stated that according to the VIN it was a 2x4. They argued with me back and forth before they finally said the insurance company was right. You would think they would give me a 4x4, no, they did not without me having to put an additional 2 thousand dollars down on it. Okay, I did that. Got my 4x4 and moved on. Then I get the recall notice for R01. Took it in of course and afterwards, the Jeep did not drive the same. A lot of jerking/coughing going on. When I stop at a light, and when the light turns green, I go forward, the Jeep stalls before it would go. Same thing occurs when I make a turn. It could cause someone to run into me from the back because the Jeep stalls. Okay, took it back in, but then I got the recall for a R05. So while getting the second recall done, they were going to look at the issues I explained as well. When I left they said they looked at it and all was fine. Well everything was not fine, it continued to do the same thing. Took it back. They tells me that my 9.V engine is causing the Jeep to do that, and that is the way it is and nothing is wrong with it. On the way home, my entire dashboard goes dark and the ceiling light keeps popping on and off. The next day the check engine lights comes on. Took it back in, but to a different Jeep service department. They had it all day, only to tell me nothing was wrong. That was two days ago. Today while driving to the train station, my check engine light comes on again. WTF!!! Jeep is a piece of JUNK. Please DO NOT PURCHASE A JEEP!!!

I called and argued with them and then I went to the website and sent in multiple complaints.Well, Jeep responded and sent me an extension, for the windows and regulators only, for ten years and it will go with the vehicle. So, go get them. They will work with you if you yell loud enough. I hope this helps the rest of the window droppers.

My experience with buying and owning a Jeep Patriot. I bought a Jeep Patrio
My experience with buying and owning a Jeep Patriot. I bought a Jeep Patriot Sport with a manual transmission in 2011. Bought it new (zero miles). I now have only 33000 miles on the vehicle. It has never been off-road and has never pulled or towed anything. Recently, I noticed a noise coming from the powertrain. Took it to a mechanic who advised me that I probably needed a clutch replacement (clutch, throw-out bearing and pressure plate). I contacted Chrysler/Jeep about the situation and asked if they would cover the repairs on the powertrain. Their response was as in this e-mail response: Thank you for contacting the Jeep Customer Assistance Center. It is understandable that you would like to know if you have warranty coverage prior to getting your vehicle repaired at an independent repair facility. As per your warranty booklet, manual transmission clutch parts are not covered at any time and the pressure plate throw out bearing was only covered for 1 year and 12000 miles so there would be no factory warranty coverage for these repairs. I also want to let you know that the Powertrain warranty expired on September 30, 2016. While looking into this matter for you, I also see that you have 1 incomplete recall. The S61- OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER recall does not yet have parts available but the parts are expected to become available in June. Once the parts become available you can get that repair completed by scheduling an appointment at your local dealership. I would like to add you to the special tracking so that you receive an email when those parts become available. You also have an extended warranty for your (X69) FRONT/REAR CROSSMEMBERS. You are able to have a free annual inspection for the Cross Members and if they are deemed to be corroded any time prior to September 30, 2021, they will be replaced free of charge as well. Thank you again for your email. Should you require additional assistance, or have any new information to provide, please reply to this email message or call 1-877-I-AM-JEEP (1-877-426-5337).In 2011, when I purchased this vehicle (new) I had every expectation that it would last a long time. I have kept up on the maintenance and, as evidenced by the low mileage, I have driven it reasonably. I certainly did not expect that there would be two safety recalls, (one of which they cannot correct because they dont have the parts to resolve the issue). I certainly did not expect that there would be a potentially serious issue with corrosion of FRONT/REAR CROSSMEMBERS, to the extent that Jeep extended the warranty on these parts only. And I certainly did not expect that the powertrain would go out on me so soon, at only 33000 miles.In retrospect, upon examining the warranty information more closely, it seems that there must be a reason Chrysler/Jeep offers such an inadequate warranty on their product. Could it be that they know they are selling an inferior product that would probably fail in a relatively short time? One can only guess. I must conclude, from my experience, that Chrysler/Jeep has produced and sold an inferior product (as described above) and that further, they appear to be unwilling to back up their product with an adequate warranty plan. It is my intention to NEVER purchase another of their products. Furthermore, I cannot, in good conscience (based upon this experience) recommend that anyone else purchase any of their products. Since it is evident that Chrysler/Jeep is not going to do anything to resolve the situation, I guess that I am left without recourse. Lesson learned. Dont buy a Jeep. Caveat emptor.

I own a 2005 Jeep Liberty Sport. I have had to replace window regulators at least 5 times. Usually the dealership took care of it but I had to pay for a few. And now, in 2013, the last one replaced has broken again. But this one was already replaced by what I was told was the improved window regulator. But just like the old ones, it had about a 2-year life span. But the dealership only gives out a 1-year warranty. Just for this reason, I do not recommend a Jeep Liberty unless the window regulators have been upgraded from the cheapest plastic to metal.

My radio has a 30-gb hard drive in it. The idea is to be able to load music and pictures and music. The problem is the radio doesnt recognize the USB port, making that option useless. I made 2 attempts to have it fixed. There is no fix and they have no plans to correct the situation.

Well, it started when I bought my 2007 Jeep Compass in 2006. Over the years
Well, it started when I bought my 2007 Jeep Compass in 2006. Over the years, I have spent over $7k on ball joints (3 times), wheel hubs (2 times), struts, shocks and now transmission is going after 127,000. I have taken care of this vehicle (oil changes every 3k miles) and now its going to cost me $3100 to replace an entire tranny. Jeep cannot help nor respond with any answers. There should be a serious recall on all 2007 Jeep Compass.

The Jeep was purchased in Utah where I have had nothing but problems from t
The Jeep was purchased in Utah where I have had nothing but problems from the beginning. It started with bad tire pressure sensor, then rear plastic window cracked, which is cracking again. Then a water leak started on soft top, which I have been to the dealer at least six times for them to replace seals and it still leaks worse today. Then the complete clutch and clutch release bearing went bad at 20,000 miles, which started to make noise again two months later and is going out again. Then the A/C didnt work, half doors flex out a half inch while driving on the freeway. They said it is normal. Then the front end rattles, the tailgate rattles loud and the traction control goes off for no reason on dry pavement, which makes the gas pedal unresponsive. It happened five times, then it knocks and pings abnormally, burns a quart of oil every 3000 miles. The brake pedal clicks, then the rear brake pads completely wear out while the same time, the front brake pads have no wear at all. Then the zipper on the window doesnt work, stereo speakers make loud popping noise. Most of all these defects still are happening. The answer I got from traction control malfunction was lifes a risk. The answer I got for the front end noise was turn your radio up. I have never had such a bad experience with a vehicle or unprofessional dealers in my life. I also want to mention how much of my time is spent at the dealer trying to get them to help me. I bought this vehicle brand new and I feel like I have been robbed.

The jeep (2015 Jeep Cherokee) is currently in the shop for the second brake booster failure. The first one happened little over a year ago at 26k. This one just happened again at 44k. The dealership has had the vehicle for over a week, and they cant seem to get the problem fixed. Last Jeep we will ever own. Jeep customer service is of no use. Both times this thing went out, my son was in the back seat. At this point I have to question the overall safety of the vehicle.

I have 2018 a Jeep Cherokee Latitude. Jeep kept cutting off sometimes when I would drive it. When oil gets low motor will shut off. It would stall when making turns. I looked for leaks and didnt find any leaks. I noticed the jeep burns at least 2-3 quarts of oil every 2,000 to 3,000 miles. I called Dealer and Chrysler Corp. They said the same thing. Now I have to fill up with oil between oil changes. Sad, This Jeep burns oil like a old car.

As another review said, no matter which way you turn its a dead end. My Jeep had (transmission) issues due to design flaw since day 1 and they snowball you and snowball you as you rack up mileage and it gets out of warranty. Still with quality issues slipping gears - they DO NOT stand behind their products and mechanic said outright that they are designed terribly. Still awaiting responses from Jeep / Chrysler credit. Again just falls on dead ears. BUYER BEWARE!!!

I bought my 2011 Jeep Liberty from CarMax in White Marsh MD. The night I took the vehicle above 50 mph the roof had a very noisy air leak. I have had the gasket replaced within the first 30 days and there was no noise until two weeks later when it came back even louder. I complained to CarMax who then told me it was a manufacturers design flaw and everyone (except me and my salesman) are aware of the sky roofs problematic history. I was told by CarMax to take it to a Jeep dealership to have them fix it because they could do no more for me. Really? I have read horror stories online since and some are paying $5,000 to repair/replace the sky roof and it still leaks. Please let me know what options are available to me. Thank you.

Do not buy a Compass. 2.4 litre motor burns 1qt of oil per 2000 miles and that meets Jeeps criteria for a good motor. Back up camera worthless if car driven on other than dry pavement and no back up sensors. Gears 8 & 9 will not maintain speed even on flat roads. Rear window defroster fails to clear window as melt builds up on the wiper making it worthless. Snow slush and mud build up on the tire causing all wheels to become unbalanced. Who pays for a at of oil every 2000 miles and why isnt that fact listed in specs? My second Jeep - first and last. What car would you buy knowing itll use a at of oil every 2000 miles? No support from Jeep and a sad sad car the Compass is.

Overall a great car, especially for New England weather. Great handling and control in snow! Very comfortable interior with plenty of space. Holds more than expected when I moved, which was a great surprise. Only issue is once they hit about 9 years old, the repair bills start and come often and at an up there price tag. If you dont have a trusted mechanic, youll want to find one once that 9 year mark hits.

I have great experience with my Jeep Compass. Good on gas, handles well in bad weather, it is a four cylinder engine, and comfortable. Get good gas mileage and parts are fairly affordable, too. It has heated seats, also has four wheel drive, very roomy for size of vehicle, has built in CD player and design is with customer comfort in mind, overall appearance of the vehicle catches the eye and it has a smaller engine which is fuel economy but has the power to get thru anything. However, the Jeep should have a bigger trunk or storage area or should come with a compartment on top of rack for better storage of road side equipment and car maintenance.

My jeep would not start when I went to go start my 2005 Jeep Liberty. Jeep would not start. I brought it into a jeep dealership and was informed that a piece on the steering column broke off, and that this is a common thing with this jeep. I am told I need to replace the whole steering column. When we went to go order the column, and we discovered that 400 people are waiting for this steering column.As of 12/28/2011, these 400 people are all on a waiting list for this part that is back-ordered. I am wondering why there has not been a recall on this steering colomn. I am without a vehicle for I dont know how long.
