Jeep Gladiator Now Available In Brightest Exterior Color Yet
[BACK]


Posted On: August 11, 2022
Despite a slow start in 2020, which could easily be blamed on the pandemic, the Jeep Gladiator has been a success story for the American brand. Last year, Jeep sold 89,712 Gladiators in the USA. Over the same period, Toyota sold 252,490 Tacomas, though we have to admit that it's an unfair comparison. The Gladiator is more of a niche vehicle. You can remove the doors and the roof and order it in a wild color. The Taco is the safe, reliable choice, while the Gladiator caters to those searching for something a bit more extroverted. One of the best ways to express your extroverted nature is via color, and Jeep has always given its customers exactly what they want. Last year the Gladiator was available in Gecko (green), Nacho (orange), and Chief Blue. The Gladiator is only getting one new color this year, but it's an extremely vibrant yellow. The new yellow is called High Velocity, and it's the first time the Gladiator is available in a ripe lemon hue. "Since the Jeep Gladiator arrived for the 2020 model year, customization has been a huge part of its identity," said Jim Morrison, senior vice president and head of Jeep brand North America. "In response to customer requests, High Velocity is the latest example of another bold shade that strengthens the enthusiastic personality of our loyal and avid Jeep community."rnHigh Velocity joins Firecracker Red, Hydro Blue, Sarge Green, Silver Zynith, Sting-Gray, Granite Crystal, Black, and Bright White as available exterior paint colors for the 2023 Jeep Gladiator. Unfortunately, the Gladiator misses out on the spectacular purple (Reign), available on the 2023 Wrangler. Also new for 2023 are high-powered wiper blades and an all-new Freedom Package. We suspect Jeep is waiting for the all-new 3.0-liter turbocharged inline-six engine to become available before it gives the Gladiator a proper facelift. We don't know how much power this new powertrain will develop. Still, we have it on good authority that it will get close to or surpass the power output of the famous 5.7-liter naturally aspirated V8 found in various Stellantis models. The 2023 Gladiator online configurator has not gone live yet, but Jeep's press release states that the order books for the model are already open.

I bought a New Jeep Grand Latitude and at 295 miles two weeks to the day after I brought It home the transmission went. The Jeep Service said that it needs to have the transmission replaced. Chrysler will pay with the warranty but I was told this repair will greatly reduce the trade in value of the vehicle. I havent even made the first payment yet! I dont want that Jeep. I will take a new one or nothing. Chrysler so far said no. How do I get outta this?! I dont want a Jeep thats value has been reduced through no fault of my own. The vehicle has other issues that I reported the day after I bought it. Service at Bedards said cant be anything wrong because its new.
I just bought the Jeep Liberty a few weeks ago. I like its automatic window
I just bought the Jeep Liberty a few weeks ago. I like its automatic windows, 4 wheel drive and the back opens up either just the glass or the glass and the door. And the door actually opens up to the side not downward. However, I would change the outer appearance. I wish the body shape wasnt so round and compact. I dont like the super boxy look either but somewhere between this style and the boxy style would be perfect. But other than that, I love this vehicle. Its a 2006 with 141,000 miles on it, runs like a champ and looks like its brand new practically.

I buying Jeep Patriot 2014, 6 month ago I start heard noise first. The brake, when I back up make noise the pads. I brought the car to Jeep Chrysler. The mechanic told me that noise is normal, for me not, because is brand new car. So now I have squeak noise in the suspension, so I found out in Google cars noise problems. They show exactly the noise and the problem and where they need to fix. The car its not bad for the price but so many noise for brand new car. I hope this can help to anybody.

I bought a 2007 Jeep Compass a little over a year ago. Having problems with the CVT transmission. Any other Compass owners having any problems with transmission overheating and high RPMs but cannot pick up speed?

This is the third car I own, my first two cars were Honda and now I am currently driving a 2018 Jeep Compass. I have been driving this car since August, on 2/26/19 around 1:30pm I was driving for about 2 minutes when I stopped at a red light and my automatic stop/start turned my car off, I pressed the button and my car started again normally. As the light turned green I moved my foot from the break to the gas and my car did not move. I pressed the auto again and I still did not move, continued to put my car in park and nothing would work. I had to restart my car twice before it would move. This all happened while at a green light with cars behind me. On 2/27/19 at 2:45pm I started my car and while I was still driving pressed the auto stop/start, I get about 200 feet further before my car starts slowing down on its own and shut off. I waited some time before restarting my car. On 3/1/19 at 2:30pm I did not have auto stop/start on, I was driving for some time and my car started to slow down again so I pushed on the gas to accelerate, it would not accelerate and I was able to pull over to the side when my car came to a stop on its own and the emergency break light came on on its own. I waited some time again before restarting my car. I do not feel safe driving this car as it is dangerous to just stop on its own. **Please note the vehicle has approximately 2965 miles on it as of 3/2/19.

I bought my 2013 Jeep Patriot about 5 months ago. I loved it up until about 10K miles when I first started having problems. It has the CVT style transmission in it, and has now overheated and left me on the side of the road 4 times now. This latest time I sat on the side of the road for 21/2 hours in a remote area where I had no cell service. I have determined that it happens just about every time the temp is over 90 degrees outside - happens frequently in southern Louisiana and I have sustained between 70-75 miles an hour for more than 1 hour - I commute 1-1/2 hours each way as I live in Mississippi, and the majority of the highway speeds between here and there are 70 mph. I have been fighting with Chrysler for almost 2 months now. I was ecstatic when I got a call from corporate last Friday telling me they would be happy to buy back OR trade-in my vehicle. Now the corporate guy here is telling me they absolutely will not buy-back my vehicle, they will only trade. I have been unable to find another Chrysler vehicle in my price range that suits my needs since it must be MSRP to MSRP. I am still actively fighting, and considering getting a lawyer at this point.

My Jeep Patriot is good and reliable. I drive easily to work every day, over 50 miles, and get around on my rural gravel roads, which can get really wet or slick in the winter and spring, and dont always get plowed quickly. Plus they are hilly, so I need 4 wheel drive often after bad weather. The engine is good, but not very powerful. I would like to feel a bit more power when I press the gas pedal. I also got bigger tires for my jeep, as the original tires were kind of small, and I wanted more powerful looking tires. Other than that, I like that its an SUV, a 4 wheel drive, has lots of room in hatch, leather seats and is comfortable. I really wanted a Jeep, as I had a Jeep in the past that I loved, with the classic Jeep look.
Let it be known that the life of an importer of Jeep Liberty CRDs to Canada
Let it be known that the life of an importer of Jeep Liberty CRDs to Canada is humiliated into a great deal of time wasting trouble. Dealers in my city of Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada dont like importers. They call us “curbers.” A bad word. The Chrysler service departments dont like the Liberty CRD. The latest problem is when I must go to my local dealer to get the daytime running lights activated. DRLs are mandatory to satisfy the Canadian Auto Registrar.Dealers charge $90 for the Canadian module and they charge $90 to activate the module, which looks like a relay that goes into the left hand side dash fuse box. The US module plugs right in beside the Canadian one and when the programming is finished you unplug the US relay module. (It buzzes if you leave it in). Today the dealer took my CRD into their shop. I signed the waiver and in a half hour I get a call that they cannot get their computer to get into the Liberty’s computer. This means no DRL and no to any updates. I got back into my CRD and noticed the air bag light was on. I tried plugging the US module back in and also tried disconnecting the battery for reset.Nothing works. Dodge City service department Saskatoon, SK is stating no responsibility and will not hook their computer up to my ECU unless I agree to at least $2,000 minimum work order. The Jeep CRD and a Canadian importer are victims.

The rear power window regulator for my 2005 Jeep Liberty has broken three times. It broke in May on the first year, broke again in July of next year, and broke again in August of the following year. The window regulator replacement part seems to last only 14 months. This is disgusting and costly. It costs me hundreds of dollars. Jeep needs to compensate those of us who keep having to pay for these repairs, fix the windows or switch to crank windows in the back. Do we really need power windows in the back of a Jeep?

Brand new car and after one month of driving the A/C shut off. It happened twice. Went in shop, no solution. It would not lock, went in shop, fixed. Seat belt lights came on and 4x4, transmission also. Car has been in shop for 17 days. Not fixed yet.

I have waited 3 years for a dash pad to be replaced under warranty part was ordered then after 3 years manufacture canceled order still not completed. I have lost value. I cannot use my defrosters. Dash is pulling on air bag. Now vents are being pulled out. When I call customer service I get the run around. 1 Star too much for this review.

Roof Side Rails Ripped off. I had one surfboard on the rack. Mounted in the correct upside down position. I was driving appx 65-70mph and side rails ripped out of the sheet metal in the roof. Luckily no one was hurt. My $1700 board was demolished. This is unacceptable.
Berthod Motors in Glenwood Springs, CO and its corporate affiliates left my
Berthod Motors in Glenwood Springs, CO and its corporate affiliates left my wife and I stranded for the holidays. After having paid out of pocket for a PCM replacement on our Jeep Grand Cherokee that also fried our battery and alternator last December, my Jeep began exhibiting the same issues as before at the beginning of this December. The PCM failed and fried a battery. I contacted Berthod Motors only to be told that while the part was still under warranty, it would be 2 weeks before a mechanic could even look at our vehicle to assess if it was truly the PCM that had failed again. Without option, we booked an appointment.I had our Jeep towed to Berthod the night before our scheduled appointment. The day of the appointment came and went with 0 contact from the dealership, although I had tried to call and left multiple messages. I had been left with no idea that the vehicle had even made it to the dealership. I was finally contacted by the service manager the following day saying that it was in fact a PCM failure, but due to not having one in stock, it would be another week before the repair would be made. It has now been 2 weeks with no end in sight.After once again not being contacted by Berthod Motors with an update to the status of the repair, I stopped in and was informed that the PCM is on backorder. The EARLIEST that the part could be available is mid January, 6 weeks after the vehicle broke down due to a faulty part being installed by Jeep. I was told by Jason, the service manager, that his hands were tied as far as not being able to make the repair any quicker or providing a rental car in between. Jason directed me to Jeeps direct customer service to see if they could be any help. I contacted Jeeps Corporate customer service line on Monday of this week. I explained my wife and I’s situation to the representative and while she was very kind, she informed me that she would have to escalate the situation and that she didn’t have the resources to actually help. It took another 48 hours for a different representative to call. Without hesitation the representative told my wife and I that there isn’t even a chance that Jeep would be willing to help us with a rental car and we would be so lucky to get the replacement PCM any quicker than what we were quoted from Berthod. This will be my wife and I’s last vehicle from General Motors. My wife, a teacher, has been a huge fan of Jeep since she has had her driver’s license. She has personally financed over 5 different models of Jeep Cherokees since our marriage. Already last week she suggested that we move over to a more dependable brand such as Toyota after this debacle. As a plumber in this valley, I could never stay in business, let alone stay employed if this is how I treated my clients. I would never think of or have the audacity to install a faulty part in a clients home and then leave them without water or heat after the part failed. Regardless of backordered parts. This has truly been one of the worst examples of customer care that I have seen in my life. This review will be updated as the situation progresses.

New car under 2000 miles returned to the dealer 4x + for the same issue. Dealer cannot fix and Jeep is not standing behind their product. Talked to a rude sr. escalation manager Patricia at Jeep with the resolution team (**) who told me she cannot help any further and is the highest level of support at the Jeep brand. Dealer stated there is nothing more they can do and reached out to Jeep for help. Getting the runaround by Jeep corp and would never buy another Jeep product again. Will pursue local lemon law and NCDS replacement claim. Truly unfortunate that Jeep does not care about their customers or products. Really hard to recommend Jeep to others and suggest they learn how to treat customers and fix their major quality issues.

The Jeep Liberty 2.8L CRD has a flaw in its design. The EGR valve is a high failure item in the 2.8 CRD. One of the modes is set to fail ope, with no accompanying Check Eng light. When the EGR fails open, unregulated air flows into the intercooler, causing complete failure, and then allowing the turbo to receive unregulated air, leading to its failure. This all happened in less then 3 miles last week, on my 2006 Jeep Liberty 2.8 CRD with 87,000 miles on it. $5,200 later the car is running, but what a bill for a poor design, with no bypass line. For wanting a $150 EGR valve, the motor was lost.

I purchased this 2007 Jeep Commander when it was 2 years old. It still had a factory warranty. It has been nothing but a piece of garbage. This is by far the worst vehicle that I have ever owned, or that anyone I know has ever owned. Nothing but a pile of troubles. Windows never worked right, sometimes they went up, and sometimes they get stuck (elect). Water leaks through the sunroof tubes because of poor design. They need to be cleaned out twice a year or my car will be soaking wet and leaking from the handles and down through the doors to the floor. When heater turns on, makes loud squealing sounds, and to turn heat off you have to hit the ac switch. Seats also had bad wiring and would not adjust back and forth.I do regular maintenance on my car every three months, and my vehicle is garage kept. Ever since I had this Jeep, it stalls, wont start on first crank intermittently, shuts off while driving, and windshield wipers work when they decide to go on for no apparent reason. When I take it for service, no one sees anything wrong with it. No codes, no problems when test driving. Everytime I get this Commander out of the garage, two months later it is being towed in for another problem. In the last 15 months, I have had to replace the oil pan (really??? Rusted completely through), water pump, fuel pump, leaking transmission lines (poor design, rubbing together), crank sensor, and NOW to my amazement the ECM.Really??? I want to puke. Got to fix it, so that I can get rid of it. Because I NEVER want to look at another Jeep/Chrysler product again. I really hate the fact that someone else has to get this money trap junk. Because that is exactly what it is!!! When this Jeep hit 100,000 miles, which was 15 months ago, it has proved to be moneymaker for Jeep parts and labor, and a real unreliable vehicle for the owner. Lets not forget all the electrical and design problems it has had from the start. I am still at a shock about the computer system going bad. Yeah 1400.00, that never should have happened!!! I cannot wait to get it fixed and get it out of my name.

I bought a 2016 Jeep Patriot a year ago this month. Since the day we drove it off of the lot the XM Satellite Radio has not worked properly. It loses the signal every 1/2 mile or so and fades in and out constantly while driving, and it doesnt matter if were in town or out in the middle of nowhere. I have complained and had it in the shop repeatedly for this problem and all I ever get is lied to and called a liar because they cant duplicate the problem, even though Ive shown them no less than four videos of the radio losing its signal. My wife finally took the service manager at our dealership on a ride-along and proved to him that the radio is a piece of junk, to which he agreed. Corporate still WILL NOT REPLACE THE RADIO with one that actually WORKS.Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram SUCKS! I have own three brand new Hyundais, all with XM, and NOT ONE SINGLE PROBLEM, EVER! We have a so-called Case Manager from Uconnect who is about as worthless as ** on a boar hog. He whines that hes not authorized to have the radio replaced. Then why has he been wasting my time, dragging me down to the dealership time and again only to be told Im a liar and they cant help me. I may have an arbitration agreement that I was forced to sign, but it only precludes class-action suits. Im getting my own lawyer and I am going to sue Jeep under Nevadas Lemon Law. And its going to cost them a whole lot more than a radio by the time its over. Also, I will NEVER buy another Jeep, or anything else this fly-by-night outfit makes. Screw buying American, Im going back to the Koreans for my next ride.
The Electronic Shift Modules are faulty on 2006 model Jeep Commander Esmera
The Electronic Shift Modules are faulty on 2006 model Jeep Commander Esmeralda. The manufacturer is aware of the problem and refuses to recall the product or make part available outside of the dealer. This simple fix has cost me hundreds of dollars to fix twice. Im on my third repair and the dealer will not admit faulty craftsmanship.
Bought a Jeep patriot in 2012. All of the plastic on interior was just hang
Bought a Jeep patriot in 2012. All of the plastic on interior was just hanging due to plastic clips breaking. Took to dealership because of skipping and poor acceleration from stop in automatic. It whined and smelled like something burning while going uphills and even in lower gears struggled. Occasionally, when I would start car, it would sound like it was going to throw motor through the hood. Their tech told me that they just have crappy transmission and it would get worse with time and mileage but said they couldnt do anything about it because technically theres nothing wrong with it. Traded Jeep in and couldnt be happier! Will never own another Jeep or Chrysler product again.
I bought a used 2007 Jeep Compass from a private party and a few moths late
I bought a used 2007 Jeep Compass from a private party and a few moths later with only 47000 miles the transmission started making a whining noise. I brought it to a Dodge Chrysler dealer and they told me it needed a new transmission at a cost of $3840. I complained to the dealer and spoke with Chrysler customer service and they wouldnt help out with the cost. A transmission shouldnt fail in only 47,000 miles. Research shows lots of issues with the CVT transmission failing with the Jeep Compass. Dont buy a Jeep. They dont stand by their product.
I would like to inform you about problems with my 2010 jeep. It only has 40
I would like to inform you about problems with my 2010 jeep. It only has 40000 mi. on it. First of all, I purchased the extended warranty with $100 deductible. Nov. 2012 was the first prob. - a recall for a guard that could collect debris and catch fire. Chrysler fixed that prob. - I applaud them for that. The next prob. was when driving down the road, the dash lights and ABS ESP skid control lights came on also lost cruise control. The extended warranty fixed that with $100 deductible. That was fine. In March 2013, it was the same thing - dash lights acted up the same as it did in November but they say it is not the same thing. This time, they say it is corded wires that could cause fire. Okay, this may be true although how it is not related to the module that caused the same lights to light up and have same exact affect as before, I do not understand. This cost me another $100. We have been with Chrysler products since 1969 but yet to buy one without problems. I am getting fed up! I guess the joke is on me for staying loyal and true so long with Chrysler. My wife worked for Chrysler for 33 yrs and Chrysler provided us with a living so I felt it only fair to buy their products. Its not so much now that we are on a fixed income. Whatever the problems which I dont understand - same light, same exact problem but they say it is not the same. If more problems happen, I will just paint lemon on the jeep and drive it around like that. Anyone that stops and asks questions, I will explain the service that I got. Thanks for listening.
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.

Was my Jeep painted at 4:45pm on a Friday? And the BBB is useless - First said, I love my Jeep and want no other car. This complaint is solely on shoddy workmanship and inspection practices. At purchase, I did notice bumpy paint on the door hinges and on one hood hinge, I was not concerned at time; I was excited to get my Jeep. My boyfriend made the comment that I need to get it looked at because he thought these were air bubbles and would eventually begin to flake. Well, one of them finally flaked; I took it to the dealer. I had seen a Jeep just like mine the week before with the same paint flaws. It happened to be the same color as my Jeep so I thought it was a defect in that particular paint color. Well, the dealer said it was rust and they have seen several vehicles in multiple colors with this same issue. They said the factory painted over rust, rust?! The dealer took photos and submitted them to corporate with estimates and was shot down each time. At one time I asked my contact, “Since I brought my Jeep in at just fewer than 50K miles, you think they (corporate) may be stalling for me to hit the 50K?” He said it does make it harder to get things done “after the 36,000” is up, but we will see. Well, I guess since it is my fault that the paint finally flaked after 36,000 miles, the Chrysler Corporation does not feel they are in need of fixing something that should not have left their factory floor in the first place. I even shelled out $3K+ for the lifetime service and power train warranties, still nothing. No wonder people hate buying American goods. Our eyes for detail stink especially if you get an inspector at 4:50pm on a Friday reviewing what is about to be shipped to a sales floor. I will be submitting this complaint to the BBB, and various consumer watchdogs. Thanks for your time in reading this. The above letter is what I e-mailed to Chrysler yesterday and it was probably scoffed at because as I contacted the BBB today, via my phone, I got this automated message that told me that Jeep was one of the dealers that did not participate in the BBB’s Auto Line Program and that I should consult my owner’s manual or press 1 for the directory of the auto service manufactures, **? Companies can choose if they want to receive BBB complaints or not? I thought the BBB was there to help resolve the issues and instead it is directing me back to the corporation that does not want to resolve the product defect in the first place? Attorneys, possible class action suit as I have seen and heard of other Jeeps with this issue?

I contacted the two listed below back in November 2010. Both locations asked if I bought the vehicle from them. I told them no and they told me they could not help me. I was told the same thing by Bob Baker Jeep in Carlsbad, CA.Why is it that none of these dealers have any interest at all in helping a Jeep customer? Do you have the address for the corporate office where I can send a formal complaint?

On August 29, 2012, I brought my 2010 Jeep Liberty (26k miles) to DarCars Jeep in Rockville, Maryland because my Sky Slider would not close. My Liberty was in the shop for 80, yes, eighty days! The shop replaced the Sky Slider two times, Jeep engineers flew out from Detroit, and then the manufacturer of the Sky Slider built a new one on the factory floor. Yay, it appears to work but I am selling it, I refuse to own a car from a dealership that cannot stand behind their product. Not only has Chrysler Jeep refused to take ownership of the defective Sky Slider they are refusing to cover the 77 days I had a rental. So, I pay a monthly car loan for a car I cannot drive then have to pay $2k in rental fees on top of it.I have written letters to Customer Relations (following the warranty guidelines for complaints) only to be told they were transferring my problem to another department. I still havent heard from anyone at Chrysler Jeep. This is my second Jeep - my last Jeep. Jeep has refused to stand behind their product. Jeeps dealership (the face of Jeep to the public) continuously ignored me during the 80 days my car was there. I would have to call three to four times a day to find out the status of my Jeep. When I asked if they could provide me a contact at Chrysler Jeep they said they would handle everything. Who is going to handle my $2k in rental? Single Moms, dont buy a Jeep. Get a car/truck/SUV from a company that actually works for their customer and stands behind their product because if it was up to Jeep I wouldnt have gotten to work every day, my kids to school and their activities.

At 41,000 my service light came on. Took to the dealership and was charged $803 to replace the $71 thermostat. Talked to customer service and they told me to submit my receipt and they would file a claim. We know of 2 other people who own the same vehicle and both had to have their thermostats replaced at similar mileage, so INDEFINITELY A KNOWN PROBLEM. After a 45 day wait they call and tell me that my claim is denied because I am out of warranty. Obviously I told them that from the get go, so why have me file a claim? Also, back door handle fell off. What a piece of junk! We bought this vehicle new. Weve always bought Hondas and other than oil changes, brakes and new tires weve never spent a penny on repairs. Live and learn. STAY AWAY FROM JEEP.
2017 Jeep (4 Cyl) - Rented one from Enterprise while on vacation and drove
2017 Jeep (4 Cyl) - Rented one from Enterprise while on vacation and drove it about 200 mi over three days in San Fran and Napa. Flat out not bad but has so little power on hills (drive back roads of Napa/Sonoma that it had less power than the K cars of the 80s which had 110 HP engines). I mean on steep hills, floored you couldnt get more than 25 MPH. Door locks did not work so had to press them down by hand and car had overall cheap feel to it. Would never buy one and if this is what AMC is turning out, its back to the 50s for that car company. Oh, the noise inside is about the same as take off in a 727!

The Gladiator is just fun to drive. All the controls are in a nice position. The seats are very comfortable and adjustments are place you in a great driving position. With a longer wheel base over the Wrangler the ride and handling are enjoyable.

The worst vehicle that I have ever own. No... the worst investment that I have ever made. This vehicle has given me nothing but issues. I think that I may stop parking it in the garage and just park it at the mechanic every night. At 30000 the thermostat failed; at 50000 miles the water pump failed; soon after the head gasket blew; then the head itself; then the water pump again; the heat; the alarm would go off when driving; had two batteries die due to a draw somewhere; the camshaft had to be replaced; the cam sensor; oh... lets not forget the oil sender sensor and now back in the shop because it randomly stalls at speeds over 40 miles an hour. I feel like I am driving a Yugo.

I have a 2008 Jeep Commander, most recently while at the stop light the engine shut off.... This is a scary situation to be in especially when young children are in the vehicle. I have experience many, if not all of the problems other consumers have complained about; however, by far this is the worst. How Do I fixed it? Since the service people have no clue?

This is the first Jeep product I have owned and so far, I am really happy with my purchase. The Jeep dealership was super. Great service and friendly staff. I can see all of my future vehicle purchases being Jeep products also. My only problem I have encountered is that my kids are way too close to me and each other. Im used to a minivan and the distance between us makes long drive a more bearable. Lol. But other than that, I like that the Jeep Renegade is at a very fair price. I also like the touchscreen stereo, which is standard in most vehicles these days but still appealing to me.
While backing out of my usual parking space at the usual cautious pace, as
While backing out of my usual parking space at the usual cautious pace, as I placed my foot on the brake, the Jeep (V8) suddenly chirped all four tires. Fortunately, I reacted by undoing what I just did, removed brake pressure (scary), then moved my foot left back onto the brake and stopped the vehicle. So, Ive advised my wife to not drive the Jeep, and if any car suddenly accelerates, remove your foot and quickly replace it properly on the brake. Also, I advised her to slap the shifter into neutral and turn off the key. Remember, the Audi story years ago (we had one). The same situation happened. I got my foot partly on both the brake and accelerator and it chirped the front tires. In both cases when accelerating, there is less vacuum pressure due to the wide open throttle, so brake force is reduced, requiring many more pounds of force to stop. So, we need to remind our families that its easy to do, and be ready to in due what you just did. By the way, now my Jeep lift gate is dented from car wash guys pushing the car from the wash line.
I had top and bottom ball joints go bad on my 2003 Jeep liberty and the dea
I had top and bottom ball joints go bad on my 2003 Jeep liberty and the dealership in Slidell was going to replace them because there was a recall on them. Chrysler claims there was no recall. At first, they said I should have waited for the part to come in at the dealership in Slidell. The part never did come in and if my son wouldnt have changed the part, who was going to pay for the accident? Then they claim it was taken care of in 2006. If they would have changed them in 2006 which they didnt, dont you think six years is a very short life span for ball joints? Why does the government keep bailing these car companies out when they are cheating the American people? I am very unhappy about all the lies and I think they should pay for the job.
I have purchased a brand new 2016 Jeep Latitude. 900 miles in, I notice a h
I have purchased a brand new 2016 Jeep Latitude. 900 miles in, I notice a high pitch noise coming from undercarriage. When I shift into neutral the sound goes away. I took in to the dealer in fulton missouri for service on the issue. They clearly could hear the noise but the diagnostic machine shows no issues. They called Chrysler corp. Chrysler told them that they were aware of the problem but do not know what it is, they are working on it. They said there is no fix as of now and the dealer has just sent me home with this defective vehicle. Im reporting this because I want others to be aware of this problem before they run down to purchase this vehicle. Basically they want me to just drive it until whatever is wrong breaks all the way down. This is my first new vehicle, Im not sure really what to do. The fulton dealer is willing to take it as a trade in but they are trying to talk me out of that and finally took me to a 2015 with close to 30,000 miles on it as I wonder why someone traded that back in, hmm, maybe it had transmission problem too. They also offered an extended warranty on the problem. My thing is I have bought a brand new vehicle with a problem that more than likely is going to have more problems! Im wondering if anyone has one of these vehicles with the same issue, or perhaps Ive purchased what will become a lemon for sure. Ive seen the transmission problems here on the 2014 and 2015 models. It looks to me like Chrysler has had this problem for a couple of years and I dont understand how they dont know what is wrong with their product. I paid 28000.00 for this vehicle and I will lose a couple thousand dollars if I trade it back in as it now has 1041 miles on it. I wish I would have seen these complaints before I went with a jeep product. The problem is I do like the vehicle, I took a long time to decide on this thing and went with what I liked best. Again does anyone have this vehicle who has not had any problems at all with it. Im willing to trade for exact same one if there is a chance Ive just picked a bad one in the bunch. I do think these corporations should not be able to stick you with a defective product right out the gate. I do understand there is a lemon law, but it has to be in many times for the same thing and as of now there is no record of a repair because they dont know what to repair! Very upset about my first new car experience.UPDATED ON 04/29/2016: My 2016 jeep Latitude is a 4x4. Like I said the high pitch noise goes away if the vehicle is shifted into park or neutral. With the vehicle in park, when I turn the 4x4 knob from auto to snow etc. I hear the high pitch ring shortly as it is switch into diff 4x4 options. Vehicle is still in the Park position. This leads me to believe this problem is in this 4x4 switch. I returned to the dealer to let them know what I had found. They said they would make a note. I also told them I had never in my life taken a vehicle into a mechanic who came out and told me yes there is something wrong with your vehicle but we dont know what it is and still could not believe Chrysler Corp mechanics dont have a clue.Perhaps they should hire me, as I have given them more info on the problem than they have given me. I also told them I have gone to the Ford Dealer here in Fulton and found they have a Chrysler lot in Illinois and are willing to take this vehicle in as a trade on a new vehicle with 3 miles that has no 4 wheel drive options on it. That was my request - get rid of the 4x4 and get rid of problem. Again I would like to know if anyone is having this issue with a 2016 Jeep latitude. I left the Fulton Chrysler dealer and within 20 min or so I was being called by a salesman.Now mind you the salesman calling me is not even the one who sold me the vehicle in the first place. He ducks me when I go in. So salesman calls me and says we dont want to lose your business and to give them a chance before I trade in to ford. I tell them I want a new vehicle with the same low miles. That was 20 miles when I purchased it the first time. I understood I had 1041 miles on this one but I was removing the add on of the 4x4 to a fwd instead. I still wanted the v6 option and they could even drop the 8.0 u connect. These 2 add ons equal a little over 2000 dollars. I was interested in a even trade out. Or they could just purchase this vehicle back from me.Well that statement got a stutter from the salesman. They call me back maybe 45 min later. They tell me they have good news and bad news. The good news is they can even trade for a model that has no v6, no power seat, no 8.0 uconnect. No 4x4. Or they can give me exactly what I want - no 4x4, no 8.0 uconnect, Ill have power seats and v6 engine but it will cost me 2995.00. Oh and they will give me 25000.00 for my trade in. Which I paid 28000.00 for. So Ive lost 3000.00 on the price, Ive dropped over 2000.00 in options and they want another 2995.00 to do the deal. Does not sound like a deal to me. I still have my vehicle and am waiting on Ford Dealer to call with their deal. Still dont know what will happen.

I have a 2011 Jeep Compass with 2.4 liter engine. The vehicle has 500 miles and we are only getting 7-10 miles/gallons in the city. I cannot get any assistance from the dealership. They just tell me to wait until summer and see if it improves. Anybody have some of the same problems?

I bought my Jeep Patriot new off the lot. In fact I bought one that wasnt even on the lot. They had to ship it in from up country. I fell in love with the look and feel of it as soon I saw it. Ive put 90,000 km. on it which is a little more than normal and I havent had one bad experience with it yet. As long as you dont count going to the dealership for maintenance. But I solved that too. I just do it myself now. I obviously cant do everything myself but I do the majority. Ive always wanted a Jeep, but could never afford the $35k price tag. That is until they made the Patriot. Its still the same old Jeep style and attitude but with a little more road etiquette behind it. I know I wouldnt be taking it rock crawling, but since Ive modified to its max, I can go just about anywhere. Through rivers, anywhere you take your F-150, Nissan Xterra, Dodge Tacoma, Ill be right there beside you. Im 110% satisfied with my Jeep, and I wouldnt trade it now for anything.
This is my first Jeep after owning only Toyotas, but the last 2 Toyota truc
This is my first Jeep after owning only Toyotas, but the last 2 Toyota trucks were nothing but trouble so I made a change and couldnt be happier. I have almost 3000 miles on the Jeep GC, its a blast to drive from smooth ride to awesome features it was worth the change. I had it in to the dealer twice for alarm install and receiving hitch and both visits went smooth. My only complaint is the sales department wasnt that knowledgeable on service maintenance. I will say that problems happen how the Dealer and manufacture handle them can make or break us as consumers on buying there product again, and laws should become tougher so we the consumer are protected.
No fender for Jeep Patriot in South Africa - Ive been without my car for 5
No fender for Jeep Patriot in South Africa - Ive been without my car for 5 weeks as West Rand Panel Beaters were not able to find/source a fender in S.A. They have referred me to Albert **, Parts Sales Executive of Chrysler Jeep Dodge Fourways and Ive been told to log a complaint as the part is currently being shipped in from U.S.A. How can a brand as big as Jeep, Dodge and Chrysler not have such common parts in S.A? Im really frustrated. I work for FNB Cellphone Banking and I know what service is and this is a load of **. Can I have a response from the CEO, Director since your managers do not have the time to contact me as I have sent numerous emails with no response for the past 2 days? None of these people bothered to call me!

I bought a Jeep in October (2017), not from this location but this is where I brought my car in for repairs. FIRST I NEED TO SAY WARRANTY ISNT COVERING A WARRANTABLE FIX - let me tell you a bit first... I was leaving for work last Saturday, 3/3/18, and my CV axle/ball joint malfunctioned. I bought my 2015 Jeep Renegade from Centennial location called Prestige Jeep... location (where I will leave a review next) and it was pre-owned. I dont know if this malfunction is due to the vehicles prior use (clean Carfax though) or due to a bad joint. There were plenty of other Jeep recalls on front drive axles since 2015. Anyhow, I have drive to and from all of my patients homes, (full-time nurse) and to and from UNLV (full-time student at 18 units!!!!!) and twice to the grocery store and gas each month. Thats where I have drive. This is a 2015 Renegade with 14,675 miles on it and the axle/ball joint is malfunctioning and the vehicle is undrivable. I bought extended warranty but dont waste your time and money doing that because not even the Jeep original warranty (5 years/60k miles) wont cover it. Lol and they had the NERVE at the SAHARA location to call me while my vehicle is sitting in their lot unfixed and ask me if Im interested in purchasing another Jeep LOL!!! UM ** NO. IM NOT BUYING ANOTHER JEEP OR ANYTHING UNDER THE UMBRELLA OF JEEP/CHRYSLER.
My husband and I bought a 2017 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk the year it came out
My husband and I bought a 2017 Jeep Renegade Trailhawk the year it came out. Since then, weve had several issues pop up. One of the major issues is that the car is sluggish and wont accelerate fast enough. Theres an under-powered engine and a transmission thats clunky and seems to jump gears. For example: When the car slows down it jumps gears. I can foresee that this could be a major safety issue at some point.At about 20,000 miles or so, we had to bring the Jeep into the dealership to get fixed because the remote start wouldnt work properly, the paint was already chipping off of the Trailhawk emblem and the seatbelt wasnt installed properly and was clicking. Jeep had this car priced at around $30,000 with all of these issues. My husband and I wanted to trade in the Jeep and they were only going to offer a trade in amount of about $15,000. My father always said that a car is nothing but a pit to throw your money in. Some pits are a lot deeper (cough cough: JEEP!). And this one youre better off just passing by.

I have a 2015 Jeep Rubicon with 30K miles. I have the Life time Mopar protection, which in the case does me no good. The Jeep stalls about 2 times a week. I have brought it in for this twice now and they say they cannot find anything wrong because when is stalls it does not send any codes to the computer. I called the factory and they said they can not do anything. At this point I am very frustrated and they cannot replicate the problem. I am not sure how much effort they put into it. I am no afraid of sending my daughter off to college with this Jeep. It is a really nice vehicle and cost a lot. Not sure what to do now.

I paid $3000.00 for a lifetime warranty on my Jeep. I have never missed an oil change and I check all of my fluids but my Jeep Liberty does not have a dip stick for the transmission fluid. 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.

Jeep Grand Cherokee 2001 - I have been waiting for several years to be contacted by Chrysler regarding the potential problem with the rear gas tank exposure, as the gas tank blows up when you are rear ended by another vehicle. Many deaths have occurred and we are still waiting for the safety issue to be resolved! Please let us know any status of the rear end gas tank issue. Many thanks.
Ground squirrels chewed through the wire to my horn and I took my Jeep in t
Ground squirrels chewed through the wire to my horn and I took my Jeep in to the dealer. They said the warranty did not cover the repair job, and said it would take 1 and 1/2 hours to fix. The Jeep Sat in the lot for 45 minutes before they said it was ready and charged me 150.00 dollars to fix the horn wire. I told them it should have been covered and that I would let their competitors know that the Mighty Jeep is not rodent proof! They laughed and took my money. I had a GMC Sierra for 17 years and never had any rodent problems. I think Jeep has a design problem. I looked into rodent problems online and found this to be more common a problem that most would think. Will wait for the class action lawsuit to get my money back! I have a receipt of the transaction, have contacted Jeep with no reply yet. I also contacted GMC, Chevy, Toyota and Ford. So far GMC and Chevy have responded. I thought they would be interested in Jeep problems.
I write to you with deep dissatisfaction caused by my first impression of y
I write to you with deep dissatisfaction caused by my first impression of your service levels. I bought my car couple of months ago mid of December from your show room in Riyadh Dabbab Street. The first time I drove it, I noticed that the Forward Collision Warning was indicating that its not functioning in the computer screen located in the dashboard. The sales representative informed me that this might be a small programming issue that could be solved by visiting the servicing center in Khurais Street. During the first week of driving the car, I found out that the car also flags unnecessary breaking alarms on the computer screen. Also, the cruise control function gets disengaged within seconds of operation and driving.I visited your servicing center and a check was made where they found there is a defect in couple of parts that needed to be changed for the Radar and the Cruise Control functions to work. I was informed that the parts will be requested and in two weeks the parts will arrive and I will be contacted to bring my car to replace the parts and fix those two issues for both functions to operate.The fact that this was my first experience with a new car that had been bought and is considered the top of the Jeep Brand line was very disappointing. Usually, manufacturing defects surface within the first thousands of kilometers drive. In my case, it was the first seconds of driving the car out of the show room. However it gets worse...Although I was promised that I will receive a call in two weeks time, which never happened, I visited the servicing center for the second time approximately two weeks after not getting any update or the promised call. I was told that there is another part that still pending and needs to be ordered. I was requested to wait for another month. I expressed my dissatisfaction, knowing that such type of parts would not need more than two weeks to be ordered from the factory in the US if needed . I also suggested to the service manager to use DHL services and charge me the delivery fees if its not within the UMC policy to request parts through international couriers. Two weeks is usually the normal experience with my other car parts ordering process where unavailable parts in the region would take maximum 15 days to be ordered from the factory. I was told that I could take my car back home and I will be called again when the second part will arrive. From my previous experience and the bad first impression I encountered, I refused and preferred leaving it to be serviced for other issues believing that the main old issue will be sorted as per my expectation.Two weeks now and my car still held with your servicing center without any update from your side. Today, I called your servicing center following up on the issues raised and again, I could not get any expectation or feedback as when the parts will arrive, replaced and my car can be delivered as I was expecting (fully functional) when I first bought it.I would kindly request you to review the circumstances of this compliant and find a reasonable solution that will insure a proper management of your customers expectations is a key deliverable to promote the well known and respected Jeep Brand. Thanks and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

My 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee is a piece of junk. It only has 70,000 miles. Over the last few years I have put all new brakes twice! All new tires, 2 radiators, complete computer panel that blew and almost killed my son and I. A new thermostat... etc! DO NOT BUY A Dodge! I drive 2 miles to work. Terrible car! Service charged me 900$ to replace the radiator.
The customer service provided by Jeep and its affiliated mother company Chr
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?

I love my Jeep Renegade but I wish it had more features. The dealer did not know anything about the Jeep and was very misleading. I was upset once I signed the paperwork. I shouldve test drive it as well. Dont have Uconnect and the dealer led me to believe I would. I also would improve the price. I still think I was paying for the name Jeep and overpaid on the car. Nevertheless, having a Remote start is by far the best. I Love starting it 10 mins before I leave in the morning remotely. I also love power windows and having tire pressure gauges.

I was pulling out of a parking lot onto a busy highway, when my 2008 Jeep Wrangler started honking and the lights started flashing. It stalled for a few seconds, then I started driving again. I made it 1/2 block to the stop lights, at which time, it did it again and stalled completely. I was able to coast through the stop light and turn onto a side street, where it stopped in a very unsafe area. I immediately called for help and couldnt even get to make my hazards go on. We have since had it towed to a dealership, and we are waiting to see what they come up with. 1 month ago, the stabilizer bar went, causing us to be thrown into oncoming traffic over in Detroit. We had that fixed (quite a cost) and found out this is also a common issue with these jeeps. From reading on the internet, both these things are common problems, but Jeep will not own up to these things. These trucks are horrible and unsafe! We bought ours new, and we have never gone 4x4ing or abused it in any way! We still owe 2 years of payments on this piece of junk, and we are afraid to drive it, because it is a death trap!

This is my second Jeep. My 2001 Laredo experienced locking or freezing of the SUV. Very scary, driving down the interstate when your SUV freezes and you have no power or control, no power steering and you have to pray and glide to the side of the inner side of the highway. This happened to me 3 times.I traded it, and bought a 2006 Laredo and thought my problems would be gone. Just the start! With 60,000 miles on it, I have the transmission light going off and the system goes into a slipping out of gear or a revving. I have to shake the gear knob to get it out of the malfunctioning mode! I have read a lot of similar problems. Besides these not-so-scary problems are the following: the seat belt light is on with the ** chime on, the air bag light is on, the check gas cap is on, and my low tire light is on. Believe me, my husband has checked all four tires with the gauge, filled them properly and there is nothing wrong with the tires! I will never ever buy or suggest a jeep to anyone! I hate Chrysler and believe me they are aware of these problems.Today, I am on my way to shop to see what they can or cant do to the jeep. Last time, when I had the tranny light problem, the shop said, Well, it isnt on now! Well, that is Murphys law! It was on all the way down 44 miles to the service shop, but then when the ** jeep is being looked at, the light isnt on. This is a nightmare!

Windshield broke on our 2013 Jeep JK from the cold. Went to the dealer and they told me Jeep will not cover because we have 15000 miles on the vehicle. Is there a problem on these windshields? I read a lot of people having this happen. Not happy!

Dashboard material is all wrinkled and de-laminating. Dealership not interested, Chrysler Canada not interested in helping with the issue. $70,000 vehicle that now looks like hell. Tires from new only lasted 50,000K and 4 wheel transmission motor failed 2 times in warranty and once costing me $900 just outside warranty. Never will buy anything from Chrysler again.

My name is Joseph **. I bought a 2015 Jeep Renegade and in 4 months this vehicle has let me down. Once, the door locks were not locking and the alarm would come on. Second time, I went to a AT&T about 1 hr from where I live, after going back to my Jeep it would not start. Then I called through the assist button and no luck, no answer. Two hours after tow truck came and took me to get nearest Jeep dealer Firkins in Sarasota. At that time they were closed. Then I had to call a taxi to take me to the airport so I can get a rented car so I could have gotten out from this stranded situation. The next 2 days I had to miss work because I was told that they will try to fit me in so I could get my Jeep and etc. I am a loyal customer and I felt like Jeep just drop the ball and wouldnt never recommend or ever go back to Jeep. This Jeep was bought at Greenway Jeep in Orlando and the people who works there do not care about customers.

I have a 2006 Jeep Commander. Everything from leaking grab bars to the brake system is broken. The door handles busted out. The grab bars leak every time it rains or you wash the car. You can be driving and all the dash lights come on but it has died while driving on interstate 75 at 70mph. stalls at lights, stop signs, esp. bas lights come on. The smell from the wet carpet and floor when it leaks is unbearable. When questioned the dealer about mold, the response was no way this car is built to last and withstand the wet. Dealer had the vehicle from Sept 14 to Jan 7 and only replaced door handles at my cost. This car is a safety hazard and I am afraid to drive it. It only has 67k miles on it.

Ive noticed when I get into a Jeep Patriot (this has happened in 4 separate Jeep Patriots) that my mouth starts to taste like cotton and I have a hard time breathing. So far, I have not found anyone that has had the same experience as me. My friend who purchased a Jeep Patriot said he noticed it a little bit but nothing severe. My boyfriend then bought a Patriot even after I told him of this side effect (smh). Instantly when entering the vehicle, I start tasting this cotton taste in my mouth and my throat starts to close up. Now I know there is a certain chemical either in the AC used in this vehicle or the powered plastic they use for the dash. Has anyone else experienced the same issue? Ive searched the internet high and low to see if anyone has this problem, and I havent had any luck. Are there any latex products used in the making of this vehicle? Please, if anyone has had the same allergy or knows what the cause is reply.

Wrote a yr ago and its worst. Transmission from 1st to 2nd gear skips and when it catches gear, rear end wants to fall off truck. Still having steering problem. It vibrates for 61 mph to 68 mph. 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. Rather take the bus.
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 purchased a 2005 Jeep Liberty new from a local dealer in Mesa, AZ. The day we picked it up, the water pump was found leaking and was replaced. Now in October 2011, we have replaced the water pump seven times. And as I write this, it is back in the shop for a leaking water pump. The last one lasted three months. We have had the rear differential replaced three times and it is howling again. All the window regulators have been replaced at least three times each. We are so afraid to drive this vehicle out of town. We rent one instead to go to the mountains or to travel to San Diego. Our government wants us to buy American. Why should we? The USA cannot build an auto like 30 years ago. Im very frustrated and will never buy a Chrysler product again nor will anyone in our family do so.

I bought my first jeep February 2014, since had one recall. Been to the dealership for same issues several times. And driving off the dealership, same problem is there. The vehicle changes from auxiliary, to the xm radio, to regular FM radio. The car also while is parked and gears are changed, it makes a sound. Right now, Im sitting at the dealership where services are given. Spoke to the person dealing with my case, explained my concerns, told her needed a case number, said I needed the manager whom is not in. Im extremely frustrated, freaking out. My job doesnt allow me to take time off for this type of issues. To make matters worse, I been having this issue one month in after getting the car and just now manage to have a day off to schedule yet another appointment. A year later!! Someone please help. 50,000 plus down the drain. Im very disappointed. My first jeep.

Bought a new JL Rubicon from the dealership. 4 days later the handle falls off. Took to dealership. Waited an hour for them to tell me they needed to order parts. Next day go back and they have wrong parts again. Of course after another hour wait. They couldnt even tell me when the parts will be in stock. Just that its a new model so could take some time.

I purchased a brand new Jeep Compass in September 2015. I owned jeeps previously but not a compass and never had problems like I am having now. At 3 years old my compass radio went out and needed to be replaced the car has 30,000 miles on it but the radio was not covered under warranty. It cost me 450.00 to replace it. In 2019 at 4 years old I needed a new wheel bearing and had to replace front and back breaks rotors and pads to the tune of over 800.00. Car had 35,000 miles on it. In June of 2020 a sensor for the battery went and car would not start. I had to have it towed to the dealer for 200.00. The sensor cost 12 dollars but I was charged 300.00 for 2 hours of labor. Now the 4wd, traction control light and ABS light all came on.When I took it to my local mechanic he said the wiring for these sensors was all corroded and would need to be replaced. He did not give me an estimate but told me it would be very expensive. The car has 42,000 miles on it. I am very disgusted and would not recommend this vehicle to anyone. I called Jeep and they told me they Couldnt help as my warranty ended Sept. 9 2020. Nice Company!

Bought the car in 2003, a year old. I wanted a good road car for work and a Jeep for weekends. This car was and is both. Very little trouble. 160,000 miles on original motor and transmission. A few minor problems but overall a great car. Really a great highway car and also great for camping. If the weather is really bad the dog and I can sleep in the back. I am writing because I see that Land Rover has a line of dog accessories. I rescue old, sick dogs, no one else wants. They are nice dogs and we have a good time. As they get old it gets harder for them to get in the Jeep. I cannot find a ramp that they like. I put cheap AstroTurf in the back and would not mind buying a mat that fit. I guess that is it. Happy customer.

Jeep gives a turbo over boost alarm and goes in to limp mode. I spend nearly R40.000-00 and car still does the same. I took the car back 4 times and the orom is still the same. They are Jeep specialist. The turbo is redo. The over boost censor is changed and the emg valve is changed.
Crooked Dealership! Lemon Cars Stay Away!! If I Could Give Negative stars I
Crooked Dealership! Lemon Cars Stay Away!! If I Could Give Negative stars I Would! ...So less than 2 months ago I purchased a 2012 Jeep Compass with 123k miles. Financed through Pronto Finance out of Schaumburg, Illinois. 1st month in vehicle stalled out while pulling up to a stop sign. Just this week the car has stalled out 6 times all while driving on the freeway! One of those times with my 5 year old daughter making a U Turn during rush hour! Car in the middle of the road! Every time this happens, it literary takes 5 or more minutes to start back up again! Did some research online and apparently this is a known issue with other Compass owners and Chrysler intends to do nothing about it until someone gets killed in an accident! I called the salesman Jorge and he told me to call the finance company because he thinks it has a warranty? Hello! I bought a used car as is. Of course it has no warranty!. Just getting the runaround from everyone but rest assured Im taking matters into my own hands. Im going to make a special YouTube Channel to document every time this vehicle stalls out or goes into limp mode. Going to put them all on blast until this matter is corrected or that crooked dealership shuts its doors for good!!! I know very well the power of the internet and social media and Im going to use it to MY advantage. They knew I was desperate for a vehicle and they preyed on me like the snakes they are! Im a hardworking customer making payments on time! You Tube Link coming soon!

I own a 2006 Jeep Commander, that I bought new. I have all of my receipts for everything, my truck has been well maintained, except for the fact that it has leaked since the beginning. I have had it serviced 7 times for the leak, and yet, I have a huge puddle in my passenger area, yet again. I dont know if there is mold in it, but they assure me that there isnt. I cant be sure. The car has also stalled for no reason several times. They cant explain that either. I dont know what to do with this truck. I have spent a small fortune getting it fixed over and over again, for the same problems.

Its clumsy, ugly, has far too many problems and was apparently built with cheap parts. This vehicle was clearly manufactured to give regular problems so that the owner would spend as much as possible on parts.

I purchase my vehicle with 33k on it 3 weeks ago. It is in for service for the 3rd time (I havent even made a payment yet). 4 times now the transmission drags when leaving a stop and then clunks into gear. Before the 2nd service visit, I was driving down the highway and a loud alarm went off (not a ding or a chime) and there was something red on the display but it was gone before I could read it. My heart was jumping out of my chest as I was in rush hour interstate traffic and I thought it was going to stop. No codes the 1st and 2nd time so nothing was done. This time there was a body something code and waiting to hear on that today. At close to 36K I am concerned that I am entering the time when I start to have to pay for these services. I feel like I am being pacified at this point with no resolution to the issue. I mentioned all of the similar concerns reported on the internet and was told you cant always believe everything you read. My response was I am not lying about what is happening and I find it pretty interesting that others would report the same exact issues if they werent having them. I have filed a case with a LEMON LAW lawyer and just opened a case with JEEP/CHRYSLER directly. I love how it drives and looks but not sure how to rank the value. At this point it is going to cost me tons to repair down the road.

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.
I own a 2005 Jeep Liberty Sport. I have had to replace window regulators at
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.

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.
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.

This is about the 2006 Jeep Liberty recall of heater/AC blower motor. The recall was performed and the motor was replaced. After replacement, the # 1 and # 2 speed fans/blowers were no longer operable. I contacted the dealer who replaced blower motor. I was told this often happens after blower motor is replaced as resistor blows. It is not covered under warranty or recall, even though the direct cause was due to recall replacement of blower motor. The estimated cost will be $150-$200 to repair.

Bought a new 2014 Jeep Cherokee, it was leaking oil and shutting off on the highway. They replaced the whole engine after 24,000 miles, now at 47,000 miles it needs a second engine. Can you imagine to replace 2 engines before it hits 50,000 miles. A complete disaster and failure for the so called JEEP.

I have a 2007 Jeep Commander. I went to drive it today, and again, it would not start. The car has had its battery replaced already, and this has happened a couple of times since Ive owned it. I have had many electrical quirks such as lights blinking and going off. It also has completely turned off on the turnpike on a hill. There was no power in the vehicle, and the left lane traffic is extremely dangerous. The jeep does frequently lurch forward when at a stop, when the engine is still running. I keep looking for recalls, and found none, but others I know with Commanders have had the same issues. How many complaints, before they are made to fix the problems at their cost, not mine?

I purchased a 2002 Jeep Liberty in April, and I have really enjoyed it until recently. It only has 73,000 miles on it. And one day I was leaving work and heard a clunk sound. When I got home, I opened the hood and checked the oil. It was completely gone, and it was less than 3000 miles since its last change. It started to make a rattle sound, and so I took it to two different mechanics, one Chrysler and was told the entire engine needs to be replaced. I had refilled the oil and havent lost any since, and now I find out that this has happened to many people and Chrysler replaced the engine and model and is not helping those that need the repair done.
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 a 2007 Jeep Liberty with a 3.7 engine. Last month, I had to put in over 1800.00 in engine repair because of carbon build up on the cylinders and valves. Since the time of this repair, I have been digging into this issue and have found out that Jeep is aware of this problem but has chosen not to address it. Searching the internet has produced numerous instances of the same issue I am having. I have also talked with the people at the local Jeep dealership. They also admit (unofficially) that there is a problem and my Jeep is one of many that this issue has and is happening. If you are having or have had this issue also please send me an e-mail

Hello, our beautiful Jeep Liberty with 57,500 miles has a broken spring loaded draw curtain to cover the luggage area. It has completely quit retracting and seems to be coming apart. I am the only person to handle this and Im not rough on it. I need it working to keep my golf clubs out of sight and now cannot do it. The great dealer here in Slidell, La says they can fix it for $250.00 (with a new unit)!!! I want information on how to take it apart and fix it and cannot get a answer from the Jeep co.
When driving for a while, coming off ramp and stopping to make turn, I lost
When driving for a while, coming off ramp and stopping to make turn, I lost power and heard popping noise, and a white blue smoke pours out the back. Then I get the power back. 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 feel unsafe driving.
DO NOT BUY JEEP! Please look into other credible vehicle brands. Please bel
DO NOT BUY JEEP! Please look into other credible vehicle brands. Please believe ALL the reviews about their terrible service! First of all, let me first say initially my car is fairly new. It is still under warranty, and it started stalling. Well I find out via mail it’s a recall on the electric system that starts the issue ok... Well my car isn’t driving properly. Can you all pick it up? Well let us get back with you.. Yes we can. My car gets to the dealership. They won’t service my car unless I sign some paperwork. Understandable. Can you do e-docusign? No. Can you pick me up? No. Can you bring the papers to my home? No. I had to hire an Uber to jeep and back $40. When will my car be fixed? We don’t know. Dealership calls back.. Can’t fix your car ma’am. We are backed up 4 days. Can you provide a loaner car? No. Why? Corporate says it must be a service that requires at least 48 hours. Your service only takes 20 minutes. I spent almost a wk getting a Uber back and forth to work $100. A week after my car is fixed, car stalls out again on a major highway. I’m almost killed! At this point I’m ANGRY. Same thing. No loaner car, I can’t get to the dealership to sign off, I spent OVER $200 on appointment cancellations, Uber rides, and food delivery services! No rentals are available in my area. We gave you a case manager. She’s not available until Monday morning. You will have to wait... Guess who will be doing Uber again on Monday morning?? DO NOT buy Jeep. The customer service is terrible. I get better service buying a $3 chicken sandwich from Chick-fil-A than I have buying a 32,000 vehicle!! I’m filing a suit, giving bad reviews until the day I die! I’m that angry over these selfish, greedy, unreliable, jerks!
I just leased a 2012 Jeep Liberty. Jeep on their own website says that ever
I just leased a 2012 Jeep Liberty. Jeep on their own website says that every radio system on the Jeep Liberty comes with Sirius XM radio and a 1-year subscription, as does the new car window sticker, and as did the salesman who leased me the vehicle. However, poking around all the channels on my new Sirius XM radio, I find that there are channels missing. Upon deeper research, I find that I actually have a Sirius Select subscription, not a Sirius XM subscription as promised. And upon further checking I find that I cannot just upgrade my subscription on my own to get Sirius XM channels because Sirius XM requires a “different radio than is offered with the Jeep Liberty!”If Jeep had said, Our Sirius XM (the manufacturer) radios come with a free 1-year Sirius Select subscription, that would be one thing, but they did not. I have been on the phone with Sirius XM, and many times with the Jeep dealer and with Jeep corporate. Today the Jeep sales manager called me and basically said, Sorry but we are not liable for that. The assigned Jeep case worker told me first that they would give me free oil changes. When I insisted they keep their word and give me Sirius XM radio as promised, she then came back and said they would cover half of the cost of the Sirius XM radio. If they arent responsible, why would they do that? When I tried to nail the case manager down about exactly how much that is and if that included the subscription, she said she didnt know. Obviously she is going back and forth with the dealership, which is not owned by Jeep but is an independent dealer. I also looked into getting Sirius XM internet radio, but again that still does not have the XM stations I want, so I cant cover this on my own without spending hundreds. But I shouldnt have to do that anyway. The issue isnt just a few channels. The issue is that Jeep is not providing something that is promised and is listed on the sales receipt. I dont want to make a huge deal about this. All I want is what I was promised. How about it, Jeep?

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!
My 2009 Jeep Patriot stalls out in traffic. Sometimes at a stop, sometimes
My 2009 Jeep Patriot stalls out in traffic. Sometimes at a stop, sometimes on the freeway at 60mph. In July 2011, I drove this Patriot, which I have had complete confidence in since my purchase two years previous, to Los Angeles. While there, the Jeep stalled out and I was unable to start it again. I had it towed to the Chrysler dealership in Glendale. The gentleman who helped me in the service department got my Jeep in and repaired in mere hours. Originally they charged me $100 deductible against the warranty I purchased when I got the car. That same afternoon, the dealer called and said that charge had been a mistake and that they would be sending me a check, which they did.Less than two weeks later, however, I was in San Diego and the Patriot started stalling on me again. Rather than have it towed I was able to drive it into the dealer, though it stalled multiple times on the way. They had the car for three days and in the end, replaced the computer. They charged me the $100 deductible again, which I was fine with since the last dealer was reimbursing me. The Patriot drove fine for a few more weeks, all the way back to my home in Texas where it ended up parked for about two weeks without being driven. Then, when I was going to drive it, it wouldnt start. It seemed to be the exact same issue. In Texas I had it towed to the original dealer Id purchased it from - Lone Star Chrysler in Cleburne. Their service department, knowing that I was soon to depart for California again for school, was attentive and though they admitted that they couldnt get the Patriot to do the same thing, they said theyd narrowed it down to two things - one being the ignition (I remember this because I had to bring my second key to them for programming). They also charged me the $100 deductible against my warranty.Two weeks later Im back in San Diego where I am attending ministry school. The Patriot stalled out on me one evening on the way back to neighboring El Cajon, where I am living. The next day I was able to drive it into San Diego proper and to class. That afternoon I dropped it back to Midway Chrysler - the dealership that had worked on the Patriot previously. Midway Chrysler had the Patriot for two weeks, leaving me without a vehicle. They have repaired the Patriot but have wanted me to pay the $100 deductible before picking it up, which I am both economically unable to do and ethically just not comfortable doing.How long will Chrysler steal the warranty deductible from me for a problem on their car that they made? This car is an accident waiting to happen - a deathtrap. Stalling in the road can and will eventually lead to an accident that will not only inconvenience people but could possibly take someones life. Ive called the Chrysler warranty number. They have told me to continue working with the dealer. I called the dealer in Texas and they originally said that if I could get the car back to Texas that they would buy the Patriot back. Id be willing to do that at the risk of having to drive the car another 1,500 miles, but after a weekend they changed their mind. Lone Star Chrysler in Cleburne, Texas did not want to buy back the Patriot, nor have they had any interest in helping me.
I want to start off by saying that I come from a family of multiple Jeep ow
I want to start off by saying that I come from a family of multiple Jeep owners (husband, mom, dad, brother, mother-in-law, etc.) as we all love Jeep. More so, I was looking forward to purchasing a second vehicle for myself (of course a Jeep) because they have been reliable cars, or so I thought, and I had faith in the Jeep Company. That was until my unfortunate and super expensive experience that has kickstarted my 2021 year. While driving back home shortly after New Year’s Day, my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee with only 66K miles, suddenly decided not to turn back on after stopping for gas. Fortunately, I was able to tow it to the nearest Jeep dealership, where I only go to for car service. Since it was the holidays, there was a delay in my cars diagnostic. After 4 days of being at the Jeep dealership, I was finally informed that my fuel pump and wiring had to be replaced for about $1,500 plus tax because nothing that needed repair was covered under warranty. Now, lets add $1,500 plus tax to the total cost that I have been incurring with rental car, stay, food, etc. since my 2015 Jeep, with only 66k miles, stopped working while I was 4 hours away from home. I decided to call the Jeep warranty customer care to get clarification on what is covered in my warranty. After speaking with several customer care agents, they all shared that my fuel pump is covered under the manufacturer’s warranty for up to 7 years or 100K miles, which conflicted with what the Jeep dealership shared. Additionally, I was told that I had trip interruption protection for up to 100K, which would help with all the costs I was incurring being 4 hours away from home. Unfortunately, the Jeep car dealership and the Jeep warranty customer care were not agreeing, which caused additional delays in my car getting fixed. After speaking with various customer care numbers for 2 days that were being provided to me by each representative, it was finally confirmed that my 2015 Jeep Grand Cherokee’s fuel pump and wiring was not covered under any warranty. Additionally, the trip interruption plan that I was told I had, was indeed not true. Now I understand that rules are rules. However, this experience has left me with 2 burning questions: 1) How reliable are Jeep cars to break down at only 66K miles? 2) How reliable is the Jeep Company with ensuring proper employee training so that customers are not misled? -Sincerely disheartened by Jeep!

I bought a Jeep a year ago but it has been the worst investment that the seller made a car with factory problems, the roof with problems of liquefaction. I go four times that they try to fix but always has a different problem. The mechanics have been deteriorating. They put old screws to repair it, they do not put their original parts, to each place that I wear they put a different silicone in it, I lost my love for my car. The truth is that my car has the guarantee but they do not want it answer for my car, if they already realized that the car is not only repaired with silicone and patches. It is best to change the whole piece but Jeep has not returned the call. I think they are waiting for the warranty to end so that dissatisfied customers can not claiming for our rights. Its sad because I thought it was a good company.

I have had nothing but issues since I leased my Jeep Renegade in 2016. The most recent issues required for a part to be replaced, that was already replaced a year ago; as well as a second new replacement of a different part. I took the car back and forth 6 times in one month and the car had less than 30,000 miles on it. I contacted Jeep asking them to terminate my lease (10 months remaining) and they refused because it didnt meet the Lemon Law for the State of Massachusetts. They rather have me in an unsafe and unreliable car than do what is right for the customer and try to keep a Brand loyal customer. I will never drive a Jeep ever again. I would NEVER recommend Jeep to any friends or family.

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.

Larry H Miller dealership has resolved the issue to my satisfaction. They stepped up and repaired the broken trans dipstick tube with no charge to me. However, Chrysler Llc would not assist with the repair.

I bought a 2018 Jeep Renegade August of 2018. This past year I have been paying for oil changes every 2500 miles or so. (Should be 5k with synthetic.) Thats 116$ bill. I honestly thought the place I had doing my oil changes was gypping Me on oil. I took it to a few different places. After the vehicle started displaying oil pressure low on the screen and shut off, while on a major highway doing 57 mph with my 6 & 2 years old boys in the back. This happened a few times while driving. A mechanic at Valvoline told me the renegades were having this issue and the engines are bad.. funny.. Would have been nice if Jeep or Chrysler had sent out a warning or recall! They knew this was happening and have ignored warning their good paying customers. So for the past YEAR I have been paying 721$ (on time!) a month for a vehicle that was a lemon, paying for twice as much oil, and being legitimately in harms way every time my family and I got in this car.They are replacing the engine. Have me a loaner for the week... I expressed how uncomfortable I am now driving this vehicle and everything that Ive been through. And Im sure the other countless renegade drivers out there with no idea! Jeep is just going to wait until someone gets fatally hurt to issue a recall on the engine. I will not be dismissed. Thats what they keep doing! When I call Jeep or go to the dealership. I am a person, this is my hard earned money and I will NOT BE IGNORED. I hope people see this and get their car checked. I want to be heard. You wronged me. Get it together Chrysler Jeep!!!!

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!

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.

My wife and I have owned Jeeps since 1996. In 2009, I purchased a 2009 Jeep Patriot for her. The vehicle is a fine one with two exceptions: 1) It is difficult to hold on the highway when there are winds of 15 mph or more; 2) The road noise created by the tires on the highway makes it almost impossible to hear the radio.

The wiring that goes to all the lights are up under the dash near the brake pedal. After driving the jeep for some time, all of a sudden the lights quit working. After having it checked, the brake pedal had rubbed against the wiring and rubbed them until they completely came apart losing all connection. Therefore, the lights, signals and everything quit working. I had it repaired, but still the lights only work part of the time. The mechanic at the Dodge place told us it was a wonder it had not caught on fire.

I bought this 2006 Jeep Liberty Limited new in January 2007. On March 19, 2010, the drivers rear power window regulator broke and the window will not go up. I brought it to the dealer to have it fixed. Luckily, I have extended warranty and just paid a $50 deductible. Today, Feb. 19, 2013, the drivers rear power window regulator broke again and luckily the extended warranty is still good until January 2014. I have to pay another $50 deductible. Even the service advisor said the Jeep 2006 Liberty do have a lot of people having problem with the rear window regulator.Based on this history with this Jeep Liberty model year having problem with the rear window regulator again and again on so many owners that bought this Jeep Liberty model, it should be a manufacture defect and it should be recalled. If I did not have extended warranty, it would have cost me $250 to have it fixed. Who knows how many times the power window regulator will break down for years to come?
