2025 Jeep Gladiator

The 2025 Jeep Gladiator is a rugged midsize, off-road capable pickup built on Jeep’s truck-based STLA Medium platform. It slots between the Wrangler and full-size pickups, offering five-passenger seating and a 5-foot bed in a true ladder-frame layout.

It’s powered by Jeep’s familiar 3.6 L Pentastar V6 making approximately 285 hp and 260 lb‑ft, paired with a standard 8‑speed automatic and full-time 4WD. For 2025 the manual transmission is discontinued. A plug-in hybrid 4xe variant—based on a 2.0 L turbo hybrid system producing around 375 hp and 470 lb‑ft torque—is confirmed and arriving later in the model year.

With the Max Tow package (only available on Sport/Sport S trim and automatic), the Gladiator achieves its maximum tow rating of about 7,700 lb, and maximum payload around 1,725 lb. Rubicon trims tow up to roughly 7,000 lb, but payload drops closer to 1,200 lb. Other trims like Mojave or Willys generally tow around 6,000 lb with payloads ranging from about 1,100 to 1,300 lb depending on configuration.

Real-world driver experiences confirm that heavy towing or camper trailers near the top limit are achievable, but often result in reduced fuel economy (8–15 mpg when loaded), elevated revs uphill, and increased stress on drivetrain components. Careful attention to payload, hitch setup, weight distribution, and trailer brakes is strongly recommended.

The ride on pavement remains firm and jittery, especially with off-road tires or lifted setups. Steering requires constant correction, and braking feels grabby in tight maneuvers. Off-road performance is excellent thanks to solid axles, available front/rear lockers, high ground clearance, and Jeep’s selectable 4WD systems (Command‑Trac, Selec‑Trac, Rock‑Trac depending on trim). Removable doors, folding windshield, and available front trail camera enhance outdoor utility.

Inside, legroom is generous for the segment (front rear around 41/38 inches), with a height-friendly cab and lockable storage beneath the rear seat. Tech includes a Uconnect interface with 12.3-inch touchscreen, wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, available Alpine premium sound, and available trail-navigation features. Cargo bed features include integrated tie-downs, optional Trail Rail accessory tracks, and a “Weekend Warrior Mode” tonneau that allows hauling longer items with tailgate latched partially.

Trim hierarchy includes Sport, Sport S, Nighthawk, Willys, Mojave, Mojave X, Rubicon, and Rubicon X—each offering unique features for on- or off-road focus. Pricing spans roughly US $38K to $61K depending on trim and options.

Owners generally love its rugged charm, modularity, and towing capability but frequently mention fit-and-finish issues, rattles, and infotainment quirks in newer builds. Maintenance and dealer support vary—higher-end trims often bring more electronics and comfort gear that may encounter glitches in early production runs.

Bottom line: The 2025 Gladiator is ideal for buyers seeking Jeep-style off-road character, strong towing and payload figures in a compact truck frame, and open-air flexibility. It performs best on trails or rugged terrain. For highway comfort, refinement, or frequent heavy towing, a full-size pickup or dedicated work truck may offer better refinement and durability. Let me know if you'd like trim comparisons (Sport vs Rubicon vs Mojave), real-world towing advice, or help choosing the 4xe hybrid.

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

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

After purchasing a 2014 Jeep Patriot, we have had issues with the throttle body multiple times. Everything from cutting out in traffic to now accelerating on its own. We took it in to Huntington Beach Jeep who then put 220 miles on our vehicle and stated they could not replicate the issue. I was able to replicate the issue 4 times in 1 day!! By the time I was done with all of the add ons they said I absolutely needed, I paid WELL over sticker price for this vehicle and to have it in the shop 3 times in the last 7 months is ridiculous. I will NEVER buy anything from Jeep again.

I bought a 2008 Jeep Liberty and took it home for one day--it had multiple issues. The stability control was messed up and so was the brake assist. I couldnt even drive it. It was uncomfortable, to say the least. I took it back before the financing even went through. For vehicles priced this high, there shouldnt be issues. My credit took a hit because they sent it through so many companies all at once for a vehicle. I will never buy a jeep!

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.

First - I never wanted a Jeep, but my husband came home one day and just like on the ads he said, I bought a Jeep! You did what??? I didnt believe my ears! Without even asking or talking about it!!! And he repeats again with a cheeky smile. Then I realise he isnt joking... I was not impressed! Eventually he got me to try it. Must admit he made a fine choice. Amazing value for money, drives very nice and great fuel economy. Highly recommended. The local dealership (Perth, WA) isnt providing first class after sales experience when it comes to it, but there is no fault I can find with this vehicle. Love the seat warmers too. :)

I took the car to Advance to see why the engine light keeps coming on and why the car was blowing heat. They hooked it up and said that was a small leak and that it could be the gas cap. We fixed the cap and went on. After a we drove and the car got to half a tank, the engine light came back on again. Now back to the air conditioner. We have been back and forth with this. I took the car to the place that fixes my Lincoln, and they saw there was a leak coming out of the jeep from the air conditioner. He told me since it was under warranty, to take it to a jeep dealer. I took it to Five Star in Macon, and they said there wasnt a leak. They put Freon in the jeep and made note of what I said. Two days later, the car was hot again. I took the car back, and they said there was a leak and they needed to order the part. They fixed the jeep, and then, it went out again. I had to go out of town and I had to ride with no heat. On top of that, my children had to ride in it the entire time without any air. That is dangerous to anyone and mainly children. I drove around in Atlanta for a week because of the scheduling and being able to come back so they could fix it. They explained that if I got a rental, they wouldnt cover the days that the jeep was fixed. I just dropped the jeep again, and if its not done right again, what do I as a customer do? This is crazy that we were forced to ride in 117-degree weather and then some. As a customer, I am so angry and dissatisfied with the service that I have gotten.

My husband and I have been lifelong Jeep owners, until now. We decided to upgrade our 2013 2 door Freedom Edition to a 2019 Mojito Wrangler 4 door Rubicon. We special ordered it exactly the way we wanted. Spent months researching and looking at Jeeps so that we would get the perfect car. We sold our 2013 outright about 2 weeks before ours was delivered. We waited almost a month for it to come into the dealer. Not ideal but ok it takes awhile to put a car together right? Dealer finally called us and we drove two hours to pick up our new toy. It was pouring when we got there which was disappointing, but now looking back that was a godsend. During inspection we found scratches all over interior panels, and spots on the doorsills where the paint was chipped down to bare metal. Could get over that.Then during the test drive the car pulled to the right, and had thunking noise upon breaking, along with huge dent in the steering wheel at the top right where you put your hand. (Were told it was a manufacturer defect.) But the final straw was when we pulled it in and found the Sky One roof leaking in the back and discovered the carpet in the back was soaked. Further inspection found that on the passenger side the Sky One roof was not smooth but wrinkled and had a piece of the frame/metal pushing up thru it. For an almost $60,000 vehicle this was not acceptable and we did not take delivery of what was supposed to be our dream Jeep. It was heartbreaking to us as we were so excited to get this car. Dealer tried to place an order for another car but it is no longer available to order. What????Now we are dealing with Jeep Cares. (Really should be called something else.) Two weeks of the runaround of someone will call you - no calls, we assigned a manager they will call - no call. You get the picture. Now finally after many hours on the phone someone finally called us. What we have been offered is talk to your dealer and have them place an order - well they cant. Then we can fix the car they have and you can have that one. Why in the world would I want a car with 8 miles on it that has to be taken apart and rebuilt to fix issues that should never have been there. This feels like they just want to pass off the problems to us; because lets be real here... there will be nothing but problems with a vehicle like this.We have searched other dealers nationwide and have not been able to find a Jeep dealer with the color and options that we wanted; they either have $5,000 more of options or are missing options that are important to us. Final piece is during the time this has all taken we have had two incentives from Jeep expire with no way of recouping the $1,500 for those offered either. At this point we are waiting for them to come up with something other than accepting a Jeep that is subpar. Overall not a great experience not anything that would make me want to do this ever again with Jeep.

2011 Jeep Cherokee Headliner Fire - August 20th I was driving near Maryvill
2011 Jeep Cherokee Headliner Fire - August 20th I was driving near Maryville, Tn. when the headliner started burning and filled the vehicle up with smoke. I pulled over and jerked the headliner down and saw flames. I was able to get the fire out and get the vehicle home. A lot of things do not work now including turn signals and wipers. New fuses do not help. I called the local dealership the next day and found out that Jim Codgill Dodge in Knoxville did a recall repair on a recall concerning headliner fires. I took the car to Jim Codgill and got the run around even though they did the repairs. They told me I had to call Chrysler. I spent three hours on the phone with Chrysler and finally gave up and went home. End result - nothing has been done to date.

I own a 2009 Jeep Patriot and my transmission went out. Since I bought it new and it came with a lifetime powertrain warranty, which includes the transmission, I didnt think getting it repaired would be a problem. Little did I know that in order for the warranty to remain effective, you must have the transmission inspected within the first 5 years of ownership. That little fact was never revealed to me even though I have had all required maintenance performed by the dealership. Has anyone else had this problem and what was down to resolve it short of paying for the repair - which is going to run $4,200.

I bought a Jeep Commander three years ago at this dealership. While it had a current inspection, the tires needed to be replaced immediately. The airbag light has been on since I bought the car. The heating system (and cooling) does not shut off. I was told when I bought it that the heating system was fine.There are no lights on the dash for the heating/cooling system. Now the transmission is acting up. The tack will go very high as it gets stuck in low gear. When I stop the car, turn it off and back on, it somehow must reset itself. My window controls on the driver side door no longer work in the front of the car. The seats are all badly stained. I have had this to a dealer in Warren, PA for repairs, but they have been unable to find the problems. Now, of course, my extended warranty is up and I do not have the funds to purchase another one. This car is a money pit. I love how it drives, but now Im stuck with an unreliable vehicle that I still owe $14,000 on.

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.

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.

My husband bought me the 2004 Jeep Wrangler Sahara brand new. I have been driving it, plowing with it, towed other cars with it and pulled people out of snow banks with it. I have never had a problem with it. Some of the complaints I see on here are just plain stupidity. Read your owners manual before you drive it. Learn what 4x4 high and low are used for before you just engage it and drive down the road. For the one legitimate jeep complaint I saw (water leaks), go on Jeepforum.com and some super nice people will tell you many different ways to fix it, some with videos.

I purchase this 2009 Jeep a year and half ago. I have had nothing but problems with it. I had to replace the brakes when the dealer claims they were just replaced and cant forget the rotors, struts in the front, alternator. I went to Virginia on vacation and 50 miles outside of Richmond, I had no power in the Jeep. The Jeep was still running but when you push on the gas, nothing happens. We stood on the side of the road for an hour to let the Jeep cool down and the Jeep started up with no problem. I was going to the Cape and the Jeep stalled again. No lights came on. When we turn on the A/C, the Jeep stopped moving and we had no power at all. I took the Jeep back to Harr Ford and they claim that they couldnt find anything wrong and there wasnt anything wrong with the Jeep. I ask them,then, Why does this Jeep keep losing power? No one had an answer.To Be Continued... going to another garage.

Pre mature wear of rear brakes 2010 Jeep Renegade - I came in for my oil change. I have 12000 miles. They came and told me my rear brakes where worn down and I needed a brake job for $400. I had it done and got on the phone to Chrysler to file a complaint. The rear brakes should outlast the front by 3 times. The fronts are ok. I see many others with the same problems but on 2010 & 2009 vans. They agreed they should have not worn out and sent me a check for the repair done. They could not assure they would not wear out again in 12000 miles or less. The service manager said a lot of them have the same problem. I think it is a real safety concern. I went to a speed shop and they told me it happens often to Chrysler products as the brake system has a poor design and cannot handle the weight of the 2009 & 2010. He told me next time to replace their rotors with double cross drilled rotors and that solved the problem for others. I think this Jeep is unsafe now because of the bad brake wear down and all they can do is issue a refund instead of solving the real problem. Now I have to worry about brake safety and have a pair of rotors waiting for the next time they wear out in less than 12000 miles. I hope others with the same problem will report it to Chrysler so they can make changes and resolve the problem that many are having with premature brake and rotor wear.

I bought a certified pre-owned 2007 Jeep Patriot with 17,000 miles on it in April 2008. Within two years and low miles, we had to replace both ball joints and now the entire transmission. I have since done research—shame on you Jeep Chrysler. And shame on the government for not forcing a recall on these matters. First of all, bad ball joints can cause accidents. Second, how often does an automatic transmission go out after four years? We have kept up on all the maintenance and never abused our vehicles. I just cant believe there are so many people out there with the same problems as I. No wonder the car industry is going bankrupt; they wont stand by their product. In these days and times, a person can barely afford to buy a vehicle let alone put out for such costly repairs.

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

In 2.5 years it has required: a new computer, new AC, new transmission and the thingy that helps with a flat tire does not work, so I had to buy a spare.

Have a 2009 Compass covered less than 19000 miles from new. It has a fault which causes the engine to go to limp home mode. The local Jeep dealership has carried out various works to a total cost of nearly 1000 euros, but cannot cure problem. They are now suggesting further work of around 10000 euros but are not sure if this will solve the problem or not. Jeep seem to have no idea what the problem is or how to fix it. I am at a total loss as how to move forward... Pay 10000 euros which may or may not cure the problem or scrap a virtually new car because the manufacturer is unable to repair it.

I have been dealing with many ongoing issues with my 2006 Jeep Commander 3.
I have been dealing with many ongoing issues with my 2006 Jeep Commander 3.7 6 cylinder. I have called them & emailed the company on several occasions about my dash lights just coming on & losing all power as I am driving. Its very scary because I always have my 13 yr old in the vehicle. No code comes up on the scanner when I have brought it in several times to the garage. Jeep Chrysler says they have not heard of this issue. I have found many many people with this issue online. Very discouraged with the same issue. There is so many wires & control panels in this vehicle it makes me nervous that some of these wires are fried & nobody can find it. I am exhausted with paying out of pocket with this vehicle. Yes its a 2006 but I can not afford anything else & I have had it for 5 yrs now. These issues started about 1 1/2-2 yrs ago. I loved this vehicle & with me driving everywhere for my daughters sports its worked. Now I get nervous & I dont trust it. Which makes me very sad. This vehicle has made me stopped doing stuff that I used to. Thats no way to live. I love Jeeps but this is making me not want to buy a Jeep again. Its something I cant keep putting money into. The issue I also have is the service engine light. Thats the catalytic converter. My mechanic told me to check with Jeep because it is something well known for breaking in them & there could be a recall. I did check & again they didnt know what I was talking about. This is the 2nd converter Ive put in the vehicle in 5 yrs. The paperwork from the 1 previous owner had also done it 2 yrs before I purchased it in 2014. Which in my previous vehicle that I had for 10 yrs not once did I put a catalytic converter in. After reviewing several reviews from Jeep Commander owners I decided to write a review out of frustration. I really would like to think Jeep would do the right thing especially with our kids always in our vehicle & future Jeep buyers deciding to not buy another Jeep. Thank you.

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.

While driving on vacation, on the 2nd day, my 2008 Jeep at 41,138 gave out
While driving on vacation, on the 2nd day, my 2008 Jeep at 41,138 gave out on the transmission. I had to stop in MS State for repairs costing $3,699.13+135.60 car rental. Upon returning home, I called Chrysler who is willing to pay only $1,500 with no explanation or were concerned as to why the Jeep did what it did. I have been at this since August 14. Today, I am told the check for $1,500 is on the way but I have asked them to reopen the case as I am still not satisfied nor was I given any reasons except that the Jeep loaner has any warranties. It seems the Jeep had three years, 36,000 and no more. My question was whatever happened to power train warranty of 80,000/100,000?I find Chrysler staff incompetent to do their job in dealing with their customer and has no lack of concern over this early transmission issue with the Jeep. Mind you, they acknowledged it is an early problem but because they feel there is no warranty with the car, they were not going to further review why the transmission failed. They never called the dealership where it was repaired to this day. I have reported them to the TX AG and NHTSA/DOT and will continue to post this issue on any website that will alert any consumers on this automaker. Now that the case has been reopened, I will wait and see what the outcome will be the second time around. There was a day when I asked for the Chrysler corporations phone number. The operator gave me to their roadside assistant line.I am very angry and very frustrated at the way I have been treated. By the way, they not only asked me for the repair bill. They had the gall to ask me for my credit card statement to show that I really did pay for the repairs of $3,699.13. How do you like that for treatment by Chrysler Customer Care? I would like all Chrysler owners to review their warranty and those that are thinking of buying any Chrysler products, read the warranty book before buying their cars.

I would like to let it be known that Jeep compass is very unsafe. I went for an oil change to find out my steering wheel is ready to go out of control. The Jeep is bought on 2008 and only driven to and from work. The local driver said it’s loose and want to charge me over $1,000 to fix not only that has terrible blind spot which is unsafe. I had a Caviler for 13 years and never had something like that happen. There should be a manufacture recall.

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

To start, my father retired from Chrysler and we have always had Chrysler products. We have owned four or five jeeps, plus other Chrysler cars. My son and son-in-law both have Dodge Ram pickup trucks, so Chrysler is in our blood. Until now! I will never buy Chrysler. Years ago, like 45 years, Chrysler was known for not starting in rainy weather. Is this what you are going back to?We bought a new 2009 Jeep Liberty and not too long after we bought it, they had to replace the whole transmission. We have experienced terrible gas mileage of no more than 14 mpg, city or highway. That is awful. We would have gotten rid of it except we four down tow it and have the tow bar installed on it. We also have a brake buddy for it.Lately the key lock has not been working right, slow, and we thought it was needing a new battery. Then one morning, we went to leave in the car and all the dash lights came on and wipers wouldnt turn off. Then the car locked in park. We tried to figure it out for days and the dash finally said no bus. You cant find out what that means anywhere. We finally got it out of park and drove it to the dealership. Guess what, dash board cluster was bad and to the tune of $608.00. This Jeep is only 1700 miles over warranty. We also have a 15-year-old Chev truck with 150,000 miles and never had the problems this Jeep has had, plus it gets way better gas mileage. The dealership Cueter Chrysler is the best I have ever worked with and their service is second to none. Too bad they dont have good vehicles to work on.I think Chrysler should at least pay the bill on this because it should have never gone bad in the first place. I feel I have a lemon, and being disabled and retired, I should not have to worry about this happening on a pretty new vehicle. Please let me know if you are willing to do anything for us, or whether or not I should carry on with this complaint.

Vehicle Check Engine Light comes on and Vehicle loses power. This occurred
Vehicle Check Engine Light comes on and Vehicle loses power. This occurred on a Highway at 65mph, the CEL came on while on cruise control. At that moment the vehicle decelerated from 65mph to about 40mph with no notice. This was an unsafe condition for all occupants of the vehicle including a 16 month baby. The vehicle was almost struck by an Semi truck from behind, who had to lock its wheels to avoid a collision. This will be the 10th time the CEL was been illuminate, but this was the first time for an incident of this manner. The manufacture and dealership seems uncaring of the event and process to make the vehicle safe.

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

Since I purchase my 2010 Jeep Liberty, I have complained from day one about the seat in the driver side making noise and everyone kept telling me it was all in my head. It was fine. They indicated there was no noise. The noise is worse and I went to a new service department and they indicated there is a piece that is missing in the seat belt. Since it is not there, the item is not covered. Really!!! Did you ever think that maybe it wasnt there from day one?? Of course if the piece was there, it is cover but since the piece is missing they will not cover. Nice job, Chrysler.

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

The trim around the windshield of my Patriot does not lay flat. It looks like it should be tucked into the groove at the tops of the windshield on both sides. It sticks up and causes a whistling sound. I have had the service department look at it and was told that theyre all like that. I have contacted Chrysler Customer Service and also was told that there is nothing they can do because it is not a design flaw because they are all like that. Also the trim along the roof on the passenger side was warped. When they tried to replace it, they discovered that the body under the trim was all jagged so I had to take it to a bodyshop to have that repaired. My salesman admitted that the trim is wrong and offered to glue it down.

I bought a 2007 Jeep Patriot and the check engine was on. I had it put into the purchase paper work that it need to be fixed upon my purchase. I had my dad pull the code on it and it was a P2004 intake manifold stuck open. I informed the dealer of the code and they said that they will get it fixed and they had to order the part. The dealership had my Jeep for three days and when I got it back, the light was off but the next day, while driving home from work, the light came on again. I again had my dad pull the code and he said P2004 intake manifold stuck open. Upon further investigation of the engine, he also stated that there doesnt seem to have been any work done on the engine. What can I do? I cannot afford to put almost $1000 into a vehicle. The dealership is being uncooperative as well.

I purchased a 2012 Jeep Patriot. It drove fine for the first 7,000 miles. From then on, I heard crunching and grinding whenever I would go over smallest bumps and speed bumps. Then, I brought it to the dealer. It was my struts and control arm. I do all highway mileage. At 11k, I feel a shake and wobble in front end. I brought it to dealer at least 10 times and complain to Chrysler that the dealer says they acknowledge an issue but cant figure it out. I am angry. I have a huge blowout on highway with my two young babies. I did not even hit anything and this is at 21k. They open a star case on it and some technician says its my axles. They are blown. I spent $400 on new tires and several trips to dealer wasting my time, and drove it 11k+ before they fixed it. It was fine for maybe a month plus, but now I hear grinding and clanking, also something loose. Plus the set button does not work sometimes on steering column. Very sluggish pick up during acceleration, hesitates when accelerating. I had to have power steering pump and serpentine pulley replaced at 20k. I HATE THIS JEEP and biggest mistake in my life. Now I am out of warranty slightly and I have to pay for it. I will NEVER buy anything American made vehicle again. Poorly made and very cheap. Worst choice I could have made buying a BRAND NEW VEHICLE.

The retractable roof broke and will not close completely... Contacted the dealer and was told it would take a month to get the pieces... That month is now going on five... Was given a number by the dealership to call and put in a complaint. Now I have a case number and a woman who calls me every week telling me they are working on rectifying the problem. I was told today that they are unable to make the replacement pieces at this time because the mold for the piece was lost... So now they are in the process of trying to find a manufacturer to make the mold to make the piece... then make sure it is safe for the public. REALLY... I call BS. They need to take this car back and return my money. This cannot be legal. I am making car payments on a car I cannot drive safely... Do they not realize God forbid someone drives their car like this and gets into an accident and is ejected from the car and dies because of a faulty roof. Lawsuits up the butt... This is just ridiculous. I WILL NEVER EVER BUY ANOTHER JEEP EVER. This is such bad business on their part... and I will tell anyone who listens to me to never ever buy a Jee. They should be ashamed of themselves.

I have had NOTHING but problems since I purchased a Jeep. RECALLS that do NOT HAPPEN, years pass, then they supposedly fix it and soon afterwards you have major problems. The p41 recall is a joke and a scam. They never had the proper part to fix the problem. They were getting a lot of complaints and having to pay for rental vehicles for people who complained to their attorney generals. Then they lie to you and tell you the part is available when it isnt. When you catch them in their LIE, they back off and wait a few months and then tell you the part is available. Shortly thereafter, your starter is fried??? This company is evil to the bone and if you are a FOOL...then go buy a Jeep.

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

I have a 2015 Jeep SRT bought in the dealer Flagship in Bayamon, Puerto Ric
I have a 2015 Jeep SRT bought in the dealer Flagship in Bayamon, Puerto Rico in April 2015. The Brembo calipers clear coat started to peel off around 9,500 miles and one year from purchase. I went to the dealer and after waiting several weeks for a response with no success, I had to contact them and they informed me this is an aesthetic issue that warranty would not cover! I tried to appeal that response but have never been able to get above the dealer level. I have tried every means possible, avoiding to go to the Puerto Rico Consumer Affairs Department, but the experience with Jeep-Chryslers customer service has been the worst I have had in my life.Upon research in the web I found that this is a very common problem to SRT owners and the feeling is the same; Jeep-Chrysler does not want to be responsible about this manufacturing issue and they avoid covering it under warranty. This is an SUV which base price is $65,000 and here in Puerto Rico, taxes included, is almost $80,000! It is incredible that a vehicle of such a high price has such a poor quality material and manufacturing in a part that is one of its main visual attributes. Anyone knows that this part is exposed to high temperatures and Jeep-Chrysler engineers should know better. I wish there is something that Consumer Affairs can do to help us Jeep SRT owners with this issue. I will be exploring the possibility of a class action against Jeep-Chrysler, among other causes of action for this abusive and elusive warranty scam.

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

I 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.

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.

I purchased my Jeep Grand Cherokee Eco GC Diesel in September 2014 and since then I have had multiple issues. Check Engine light constantly goes on and they say it needs to be updated when serviced... Well service doesnt do this regularly. Filled up my DEF with the same stuff I always fill it up with and all of a sudden when driving home it states Incorrect DEF fluid. See dealership. Then all my lights start to flash and I get a message that says Engine will NOT restart in 175 KM. Well its Sunday and no freaking dealership service department is open. Not impressed!! When you buy a $60,000 new vehicle it should not have issues like this. Camrose and Sherwood Park dealerships: When I bought from Camrose dealership they never even told me it needed DEF so just about ran out. Also when I asked if I could get the oil changed anywhere they said yes... Well guess what? You cant. You can only get it changed at a dealership as they do not sell the filters to anyone BUT the dealerships. Took it into Sherwood Park dealership to get it serviced and have the updates done and guess what? They charged me an outrageous to get the oil change and then never even did the updates. Asked them to do the updates and they said I would have to book an appointment with the service department. When I went to book an appointment they didnt even know what I was wanting when asking for them to update the computer system. Thirdly Asked them to clear the check engine light so I could at least use my command start and the Techs there didnt even know how to do this. Super frustrated with my Jeep and both dealerships.

I called last week to simply find out a price on a vehicle. I spoke to Trevor who kept me on the phone for 20 minutes trying to get me to come down there to purchase this same vehicle. I told him there was no way I was driving 4 hours to be disappointed and come home with nothing. Ive had over 12 vehicles and I know how this operation works. I told him about my proposal I have with a dealer here and the price they were giving me for my trade. They unfortunately didnt have the color jeep I wanted. He guaranteed that he could get me to a payment of $300 or under. I still said I dont believe it and will not drive there until I know you can sell this vehicle for this amount and that I have it in writing. At this point he said even if we lose money we want your business. I told him Id call Monday since Id be away all weekend. In the meantime my friend Greg also called and spoke to Trevor about numbers and he promised he could get us there. So last evening we made the 2-hour one-way drive to find out it was all a lie. The numbers were way off. You wouldnt give me the discount promised. I left absolutely devastated. My suggestion to Trevor and the rest of your team is not to make empty promises to prospective buyers. You wasted 5 hours of driving and caused a lot of heartache. I will never recommend anyone to your dealership. As matter of fact, I will tell everyone I know to steer clear. I will be writing a letter to Jeep corporate customer satisfaction on how no one there would take any responsibility for their dishonest actions and misleading representations over the phone. Especially with a new salesperson they have on staff that is representing them. They promised $11,500 for my trade and $2300 in rebates. We got there and they would only discount the jeep $1165 and would only give me $10,000 for my car.

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 leased a 2018 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk in February 2018. 2 months later I had to take it back to dealer for the paint peeling. Of course they were asking me stupid questions... Maybe its the sun?? Maybe its from a carwash... really??? Its a defect.... THEN... it started jerking. I would come to a stop sign or a red light and it would jerk upon acceleration. One time I actually thought someone had hit me from behind. Took it back to dealer... can’t find anything wrong... Then last month I took it to another dealer... they found a cylinder misfiring... yeah sounds safe to me. Started doing it again after getting the car back for 3 days. Dropped it off again and they once again find nothing wrong. I will NEVER buy another Jeep product. I just want OUT Of this lease... Oh, and by the way... I have 8800 miles on it.

I was one of the very first to sign up and order an all new Jeep Gladiator
I was one of the very first to sign up and order an all new Jeep Gladiator Launch Edition. It has been a botched launch ever since the beginning. The website pre-order not working correctly, promised a white glove concierge experience with no contact from them, the factory pumping out Jeeps for orders that were placed months after mine, and now delivery...As I type this it sits in a lot waiting on truck to bring it two hours to the dealership..for an entire month it has been sitting there. The chat is of no help and my salesman says FCA wont let him send someone just to pick it up. Starting to wonder why I am buying this if this is how Jeep treats its customers.

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

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.

I needed a RHD Jeep. I went to TN to get one asap. I had 2 to choose from that were new. Since they had black interior, I wanted the one with the tinted windows. I did not like the large mud tires on it and said so about 5 times. He did not want to change the tires; he said he would have to spend $300 to recalibrate them to 16 tires. So, I paid more for the better tires as he stated. I found out that the tires slung rocks onto all 4 hinges and beat the paint off. They sold me $10 touch up paint with $6 shipping and handling. I bought mud flaps. This stopped the 2 top hinges from much more damage.Now I have ordered Mopar running boards in hopes of stopping more damage to the lower hinges before I touch up the paint. It costs $315. They offered to sell me one for $615 with installation. I hope my husband can install them. I feel this is a design flaw. I told both Jeep Corp. and the salesman that. Neither of them agreed. Now I have noticed that when I drive by the mile markers on the interstate, 3 miles measures 2.7, 4 miles measures 3.6 on the Jeep, and 5 miles measures 4.5, so I estimate if I go 10 miles only 9 miles will show up on the Jeep.

I am 65 years old, and purchased a 2007 Jeep Liberty on June 12, 2014. I had no idea of the fuel tank installed behind the rear axle. Prior to purchase, I had done a CarFax report that revealed no recalls. Shortly thereafter I received a notice of recall on the trailer hitch and waited 9 months for the replacement hitch to be available and had it replaced at the Chrysler dealership. No one ever told me about the gas tank mounting behind the rear axle and that 75 people had been burnt to death in rear collisions. Now I am stuck with a vehicle I still owe $8000 on and no one wants to buy. It is sad that our National Highway Traffic Safety Administration and Chrysler dont care about our safety and that a band aid of a trailer hitch could protect lives from a fuel tank explosion in a rear end collision over 40 mph.

My Jeeps window regulators keep breaking. I have installed four now and another just broke. I have replaced each window now at least once. The plastic nylon clips break and the cable winds inside the housing. Chrysler has not recalled the regulators. There is no recourse except to pay another $90 off the Internet and buy another one. I dont know how they can get by with this. There is enough complaints filed. What is your organization doing to help?

I bought my 2017 Jeep Compass brand new, the 8th month in I was driving on
I bought my 2017 Jeep Compass brand new, the 8th month in I was driving on a busy street when my oil sensor went off and caused my car to slow to a stop and my steering wheel to stiffen. Mind you, the oil light went off 3 days prior and Jeeps response when I took it in? “It burns oil every 3k miles, this is normal according to their standards and that’s just a sensor”. Flash forward to a radio repair, back up camera repairs (needs to be replaced again) and multiple oil issues and it has now been declared a lemon. To say the process even with an attorney has been simple would be a lie. It has been a total nightmare to get Chrysler to take back THEIR defective vehicle. If you are looking for a car for yourself or family I would highly suggest doing your research and never, ever buy a Jeep/Chrysler vehicle. If I could rate 0 stars I would have.

I purchased a 2010 Jeep Compass in April 27, 2012 with 27,000 miles at the time of purchase. I fell in love with the car. I asked the GM for a Carfax. I did not get the Carfax until after I purchased the car. After I purchased the car, the next day, when I drove the car home, the gas gauge was not working. I called the GM, I took the car back, put it in the shop for a week, then the gas gauge was fixed. After that, the engine light came on, which they fixed. Three weeks later, it was back in the shop as there was a knocking under the car and the engine light came back on.When I picked up the car, they said that they had to replace the sign section. On June 12, the car was back in the shop as it was still having the knocking noise under the car. I reminded the supervisor of the noise and he said that he did not hear anything. On July 4 through July 30, Don Jackson had my Jeep for 30 days because the air went out. When I received my car back on July 30, the knocking noise was still there. The GM informed me that the car isnt new.I took my car to Don Jackson Jeep on September 17, 2012. I had an appointment to get my car serviced. I stayed at the dealer from 10:30 AM to 3:30 PM. The tech named Michael came out and informed me that the owner and the GM are working to get me another car, that there is something wrong with my car, that I can drive the car home and they will call me back on that evening - there was no call back.I called them on Friday, September 21, to see what is going on. I left a message but there was no answer. I called again that Monday, September 24. I learned that Michael no longer worked there and I still have not received any call back from them. I called again on September 25 and 26, left messages for the GM of Don Jackson Jeep to call me back today, September 27. Still, no answer.I have received 3 letters stating I was denied credit for a car loan. I did not agree or authorized their credit application and Don Jackson Jeep is sending my credit application to a different finance company. My credit score has dropped due to their inquiries and I recommend that I get a car to replace my lemon car with equal or greater value without a cost to me. Please feel free to contact me.

I purchased 3 new 2005 Liberty from 2 different dealers at the same time. As the single owners and used in our business, they are on the road 24/7 and are now at 200,000-250,000 miles. From day one, we have complained to the local dealer to no avail, who blew it off and never made any reports. When filling the tanks with gas on each Liberty, they spill over every time before the gas hose nozzle shuts off. It does not matter what gas station you go to. They all do the same spill over down the side of the car and onto the rear left wheels.The issue is none of our other cars do that. Fire is a real danger each time. We have to guess at about how much to fill the tank so it does not come up the next so fast before the pump can shut off. We operate several other cars at the time and have no problems with the auto shut off. We perceive the gas tank neck is too short or fills too fast trigger the shut off at the pump. There must be a design defect that spills gas over the fender about a pint each time you try to fill the tank at the full level. All 3 Jeeps do the same scenario. Its a 2005 design defect. A real safety hazard exists.

Where do I begin? I bought this Jeep brand new and outright with 36 miles when I drove it off the lot. It was great until 40,000 miles I had to replace everything in the front end. Mind you this vehicle is not used for off road. It is used for basic daily driving to and from work, errands, etc. After that was replaced I made a turn only to have scalding hot water pour into my driving foot while wearing sandals. I took it back to the dealership and asked to be notified of the problem before it was fixed. I was not called until the end of the day when I was told to pick up my vehicle. I was then told it was a clogged AC unit and was charged $300. They did the work without my consent. The troubles kept coming after that! About a year ago while driving down the road, my car began to violently shake with my daughter in the vehicle with me. My tie rod broke while driving about 40mph. Luckily I did not crash and was able to gain control of the vehicle and pull off the road. That makes the second time things in the front end were replaced all before 100,000 miles. I am now over 100,000 and no longer have a warranty. Two months ago I paid 1,000 for engine issues. My traction control light is always on, now my check oil light is on and dinging over and over while driving. There is a sensor failure that informs the car of the oil pressure. I have plenty of oil. Then I went to leave for work and my Jeep would not release the shifter out of park. Upon research this is an electrical issue where the transmission does not recognize the brake is being pressed to release the vehicle out of park. I was finally able to get it out. My blower motor for the hot and cold air does not work and needs to be replaced. I also have paint bubbling up right above the windshield and the roof of the vehicle. Not sure if this is related but in New England winters like this past one where we have a ton of snow and ice I have water that leaks into my interior light and comes through the light. So basically my car sucks and I thought I would at least be able to get two more years before I had to buy a new vehicle but this is not the case. I am having more and more issues! So from 40,000 to its current 119,000 this car has been nothing but a headache! I am so disappointed and so badly want to call Chrysler and tell them all the issues Ive had in a basically brand new vehicle (I know its not now but at 40,000 it still was). Ive owned many Jeeps over the years and I will not be purchasing another Jeep!!! I dont feel safe even driving to work in this POS!!! It looks nice on the outside but just ask me about the anxiety, stress, headache and money this vehicle has cost me and you wont think its so nice!!!

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

I have a 2008 Jeep Patriot. Two years ago the transmission fluid light came on and immediately my speed went to around 20 mph. This was in a freeway construction zone. We could not get off the road and limped along at 20 mph until we could get into a parking lot. How we survived that I dont know. Traffic was zooming around us in restricted lanes. It was taken to a nearby dealer who could not look at it until the next day. And then they could not find it. They would not even drive it.Back at home I took it to a local dealer and after 6-7 weeks of them having my car, Chrysler agreed to a new transmission. One year later when it was hot, it did it again. I find in cold weather season this is not so bad but when temps hit 80 I cannot drive faster than 55 or the transmission fluid overheating light comes on. Today July 27 2014 temps was 102 and my 92-year-old mom and I sat in the boiling heat on the side of a highway because it happened again. Not just once today. TWICE today.If someone wants to have a class action suit, let me know. Because Jeep maintains there is no problem. I will never own another.

I feel bad I have to write this but....I bought a Jeep Compass back in Marc
I feel bad I have to write this but....I bought a Jeep Compass back in March 2019 from the Route 46 Jeep Dealership in Little Falls, NJ. DO NOT GO TO THIS DEALERSHIP!!! IT IS TERRIBLE. I had to wait over an hour until they found the vehicle I was inquiring about. Then the finance guy, Alex **, was awful in giving me all of the details of my loan. Very rushed and basically didnt care about what was best for me. I was told the Compass was certified and when i went to sign the papers, it was not for the amount quoted online as the sales price. I had to pay an additional 1200 for the certified fee! This was not disclosed or mentioned in any paperwork until I sat down with the finance person at the last minute. Very unprofessional. I waited to speak to the manager of the dealership before I left, but he was conveniently unavailable for over an hour.Next issue-had car serviced at the Morgantown, WV dealership in October 2019. Then in June 2020, the car stalls out on me. I had vehicle towed to a White Plains, NY dealership. Issue was that the Morgantown dealership left screws of the torque plate in the car and they punched a hole in my motor and transmission. Now I find out the parts are not coming in until October 2020. I have been without a vehicle from June 2020 and will not get my car until October 2020. Jeep is not helping me at all! Issue was Jeeps fault and they are doing nothing to help me. Very frustrated. Will never buy a Jeep again.

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

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 bought my 2007 Jeep Patriot brand new. About a year later, my jeep stalled at a light. It was raining and started right away so I figured maybe some water had gotten into a hose or the engine. It didnt stall after that for another year. Since then, it stalls every time it rains! I am so fed up with Jeep not recalling their vehicles for known issues. It seems like someone has to die and a lawsuit has to be filed before they do anything to fix their problems. I am so tired of having to invest money in this car.At around 60, 000 miles, I had to replace both ball joints. Even with an alignment my car still vibrates at high speeds. The transmission struggles when accelerating. Ive had to replace all my rotors! My driver side window squeals as it is rolled up. There was a mysterious leak thru my trunk that resulted in water being accumulated where the spare tire is. Took it the dealership and they replaced the rubber gasket but the damage was already done. I service my SUV regularly so I wouldnt expect so many problems. I use fuel injection additives to make sure the fuel system is clean. I change my spark plugs on time. I never had this much problems with my 2000 Galant.

At 68 miles, the check engine light came on. I returned to the dealer and was told the oxy sensor was bad, but it was okay to drive. At 300 miles, that did not work, and I ordered a computer and was told the car was okay to drive. At 1000 miles that also did not correct problem, so I left the car at the dealer. Two weeks, the car is still not fixed and Chrysler is not sure what will fix it. Customer Service keeps putting off the option to buy the car back. It is now 24 hours since I was last contacted by Jeep. They keep coming up with one more thing to put off resolving the problem. We bought a new Jeep Compass with 2 miles on it and have not had car for two of the 4 weeks we owned it. Even the dealer agrees that the car should be bought back.

I purchased my 2014 Hero Latitude in Oct 2015. I have had nothing but issues with this vehicle. I purchased it with a little over 35 thousand miles. I have had a new transmission in about Feb or March in 2016. I have had a transmission mount replaced I. 2017 and another in -Oct 2020. I have had the shifter replaced or repaired about 2016. I’m having an issues once again with the shifter. I have had the throttle replaced in 2020. I current have over 76 thousand miles on my vehicle because I’m too afraid to drive too far. I will not even take a road trip for that reason.

I have a 2006 Jeep Liberty and about a year and a half ago my window came crashing down suddenly. After taking it to the dealer I found out that the motor was broken and the window regulator was cracked which I was told holds the window in place. Just last month the same window I had replaced came crashing down again. I had the regulator replaced again. Now today the other rear window has come crashing down. I have filed a complaint on the safety of the windows and I believe a recall should be made. These parts are $300 each and every time they need to be replaced. I believe everyone who is having the same issue should be making a claim.

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.

My wife and I bought a 08 Commander three months ago. When taking it to my mechanic to have an oil change performed, he saw a leak coming from the engine block. I contacted Chrysler and was told to take it to a dealership to have them diagnose the issue to see if they could help cover it. The dealership found a crankshaft seal leaking which I have replaced at the time, granted the vehicle only has 30,000 miles on it. Chrysler informed me that they cannot cover it because they can’t tell if it was pre existing when we bought it or not. I will definitely remember this when my 05 Ram and Jeep need to be replaced when I find a different make to buy. They fail to realize that the main issue is that stuff is failing in the engine and transmissions of all their vehicles with low miles. The US tax payers helped bail the auto industry out and they can’t help the people who purchase their vehicles by backing up what they sell.

I purchased a 2011 Jeep Patriot new in August 2011. At 4000 miles, I pulled out of a parking lot and my Jeep would not go faster than 1-2 miles per hour. The RPMs when pushing down the accelerator to the floor would go past 6 and into the red, but the vehicle would not go. It sounded like the vehicle was in neutral with the gas pedal all the way to the floor. I turned it off and on several times and it was fine. I took the vehicle to the dealership and they couldn’t find anything wrong with it and nothing showed up when they hooked it to their computer. This same problem has happened 7 times from April 2012 to April 22, 2013.The last time I took it to the dealership on April 22, 2013, their technician at the plant diagnosed the problem that the floor mat must be in the way of the gas pedal and that the engine is not getting fuel. Seriously? If the RPMs are at 6 or higher... then the engine is getting fuel. I am sick to death of this problem and no help from the dealership. It’s ridiculous and pathetic! Dealership is telling me there is nothing they can do because their computer does not show anything is wrong. Tech at Jeep says to fix nothing until it duplicates this problem while the dealership is test-driving it. Help!

Would not stand behind warranty. The drivers side mirror broke when it would not fold as designed. Dealership would not replace. Cost me $487. Called FCA line and all they do is back the dealer so whats the point? Also Jay the caseworker was unprofessional and hung up on me.

I am a corporate manager for a global company in Austin, Texas and am embarrassed in front of my colleagues to have purchased a Jeep. I am extremely disappointed in my much anticipated custom ordered 2011 Jeep Sahara 4D 4x4, VIN: BL611285, purchased/picked up on May 13, 2011.I have purchased a Lemon and am extremely disappointed and embarrassed with all the issues I am experiencing with this Jeep. It has left me stranded multiple times, where Ive had to pull over and wait on the side of the road. Twice it had to be towed, the farthest has been 150 miles away from my residency. This has affected my life and interrupted my work schedule several times.On August 15, on multiple times, Jeep had to be towed to dealership due to loss of communication with computer. Repaired on August 10. On August 2, the second time the Jeep went to dealership due to loss of communication with computer. Hot oil and warning lights caused me to pull over, then Jeep would not start. Work was performed on Aug. 10, re-flash computer. On July 14, 62 days from purchase date, I brought the Jeep to shop for miscellaneous issues and concern on rough engine start. On June 23, 41 days from purchase date, warning lights flashed on. During this time, I saw hot oil flashing pulled over and called towing. Work was performed (replaced wind module sensor--this seemed to address warning light issues).I am frustrated beyond belief that I am now considering following the recommendation of my Lemon Law lawyer, in addition to reporting my experiences with the BBB, plus publicize to numerous colleagues, family and friends on why they should not purchase a Jeep from Chrysler.I purchased the Jeep upon recommendation from family members who also recommended Jeeps to several friends, some actually purchasing from Chrysler. Im done and no longer have patience to waste valuable time on a vehicle that Im literally afraid it will leave me stranded.

I bought my 2011 Jeep Liberty new which has just over 50,000 miles on it. I am a female in late 50s so no off road or rough driving. But already I had to replace a Idler pully belt and today a water pump. Not a happy camper.

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

This vehicle is a great medium size SUV. Bought to pull behind an RV. It served that purpose and as a great car for a couple. Very versatile and reliable. No problems and love the diagnostic monthly report.

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.

I have owned 3 Jeep Commanders 2006 and we have recently purchased a new Compass. I have decided to keep one of the Commanders. My family and myself have taken care of the Commanders from the beginning even though after the first year, the plastic door handles cracked and just fell out on the floor making it very hard to open the doors, were always wondering when it will quit working. At first, I believed it was some fault of ours but after three 40,000 dollar cars and they all did the same thing, I decided to keep one and went to the dealership to pay and fix my own. They quoted me a price of $550.00 a piece, which is not fair as this is the third vehicle we have had to do this. I love these SUVs, but the doorknobs and the seat belts also will not hold up making it impossible to take all the kids at once. $330.00 a piece to fix the seat belts. There is a big manufacturing problem and I would like some help as we have purchased 4 Jeeps, 3 at one time.

I recently had to have ball joints and rods replaced in my 2008 Jeep Patriot with 43000 miles on the vehicle and finding out from several mechanics and forums that this is a very common problem with this vehicle. Chrysler/Jeep used inadequate parts with little regards to the buyers safety.

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?

At least 10 years have gone by with continual complaints about a well known, costly repair for failure of blend doors in heating and cooling blower and failing window motors. At what point does JEEP repair this problem. The piece of equipment used is junk and this is well known and has not been resolved in way too many years. For a part that couldnt cost more than $10 to add to these areas to resolve the problem, this is very sad that they would not fix this and add cost of part to price of car instead of owners having to replace this part that has been known for failure and costing on average $700-$1200 to pull dash to fix blend doors and window motors are min of $50 with you fixing yourself, times the number of them that fail, and all will eventually on power windows. The pieces of cheap plastic used in these areas should be a liability for the manufacturer and they should have been forced to recall these vehicles for this constant repeat, year after year manufacturing of a defective part not intentioned to last.
