Jeep Teases New Concepts For 2022 Easter Safari
[BACK]


Posted On: February 26, 2022
Every spring, Jeep enthusiasts gather for one of the coolest off-roading events you'll find anywhere. The Easter Jeep Safari, held in Moab, Utah, is set to return on April 9-17. It's one of the largest off-road gatherings in the world and is hosted by Moab's Red Rock 4-Wheelers club. Of course, Jeep plays a major role as well, and like every year, it'll be bringing some totally rad new concepts. Although we're still a couple of months away, Jeep has already begun teasing those concepts with two images. Jeep claims this year's 56th annual event will be "bigger, better, greener, faster ultra-capable, and undeniable Jeep. The new batch of concepts will come from Jeep and Jeep Performance Parts. Unlike in past years, Jeep isn't teasing some crazy new Wrangler concept but rather the all-new Grand Cherokee and a Gladiator silhouette, the latter being made up of QR code bits and pieces. We already tried scanning the Gladiator image to see whether anything would happen. Nothing (for now). We're not sure what message Jeep is trying to send us here but we're anxious to find out. The Jeep Performance Parts logo directly beneath the vehicle is the only clue, so expect plenty of new off-road accessories. As for the Grand Cherokee, we're willing to bet it's that of the new 4xe plug-in hybrid. The blue hues in this sketch are pretty much a dead giveaway. Furthermore, the official press release states that the "4xe electrified Jeep SUV that will certainly conquer even the most tumultuous terrain along the backcountry trails of Moab and further highlight the Jeep brand's vision of accomplishing Zero Emission Freedom." We can't wait to see what this concept can do off-road. Expect more teasers in the coming weeks and, before the event gets underway, a full reveal of those concepts; we've included photos of previous years' concepts for this article. So stay tuned because, as always, Jeep is promising another wild off-road experience come April.

I have 2 accidents in the first month I have it. The worse car I ever bought. And the engine keeping give problems. Can you help? I almost kill myself and my kids. I broken all the windows, poor vision, engine, jerking stops.

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.

Cannot drive in rain, are it stalls, & lights inside & out act up, problems with brakes, inside seat parts broke, speed sensors blow abs system!! Problems front ball joints, cvc boots. This have been going for 3 years!!! SICK OF IT!!
I have had my Jeep Wrangler Sport Unlimited 4-door since September 7, 2012.
I have had my Jeep Wrangler Sport Unlimited 4-door since September 7, 2012. The first heavy rain we had here in San Antonio, Texas left the driver side floor with a small puddle of water. The next screwed up thing that happened was the zipper broke on the rear window on the drivers side. I took in the Jeep to get the leak fixed; it still leaks. I contacted the dealership (Ancira Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram in San Antonio, Texas) and found out that the service department has to find someone to re-sew the zipper. They have to find someone who will do this within the price Chrysler gave them. I paid a lot of money for this Jeep and the last I want is to have my zipper sewn back on! Thats **! I want my window fixed correctly! And if the whole top has to be replaced, then replace it! Its your screw up and you need to fix your screw up and if its going to cost you, too bad! Dont forget Chrysler - we bailed your ** out of trouble and you owe us! Get your ** together and fix your problems!

I got a 2018 Jeep Wrangler that is trailer rated. I paid $42,000 for it for the fact that I like to go off road. On New Years Eve my wife was coming home in a downpour on the highway when the jeep just stop running. She pulled over to get out of the way. She tried starting it a couple of times and nothing. I went and picked her up 150 miles away and had it towed to my house. I called the dealer and had to wait 14 days before they could look at it.Two days later I got a call that water got into the motor and it would be $12,000 for a new one. I asked what about my 7 year 100 mile warrant they said it is not covered. I called Chrysler and they said no good. I looked up what trail rated stood for and it said that the jeep could go in water up to 19 to 30 inches. When I said that to them they said that does not mean rain. So to fix my jeep I had to go through my insurance. I will never buy a Chrysler again and have told my friends not to use that dealer or buy a Chrysler. P.s. I work in a company where there 46,000 employees and I posted this on their website.
2015 Jeep Patriot Sport 11,600 Miles - I purchased a Jeep Patriot brand new
2015 Jeep Patriot Sport 11,600 Miles - I purchased a Jeep Patriot brand new in 7/2015. Today I take it for a oil change and the transmission is leaking where it connects to the engine. I was told the tranny has to be replaced but they cannot tell me when it will be fixed. Chrysler and the dealership refuse to provide a loaner. All their customer service people say is I understand your frustration and then say I just have to wait. I was supposed to go on a family prepaid, non-refundable vacation tomorrow. GREAT customer service Jeep. Im sure glad I bought such a reliable, brand new vehicle that you back so well!! What a joke!!!

Jeep vibrates at 2200RPM 58MPH. Automatic transmission starts in 4th gear and gets worse as speed increases [like a tire out of balance]. Many lame excuses but no fix.
I purchased a 2007 Jeep Liberty and I found I had bought a window monster.
I purchased a 2007 Jeep Liberty and I found I had bought a window monster. Not only did the regulator break, but you had to put a new window to go with it. I had six windows replaced, and two of them were the new model.I had 3 weeks left on my warranties when the last one happened. I argued with the service writer and he gave me a number to call. I called and argued with them and then I went to the website and sent in multiple complaints.Well, Jeep responded and sent me an extension, for the windows and regulators only, for ten years and it will go with the vehicle. So, go get them. They will work with you if you yell loud enough. I hope this helps the rest of the window droppers.

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

I have had the radio in my Jeep replaced for the third time. I got a call from the dealership saying my new radio was in. I took my jeep in and had the radio replaced with the new one when I called XM to have it activated and the radio ID belong to a different name and address so it could not be activated because the radio ID belong to somebody else which means the radio was not new. It came out of another vehicle. I cannot believe this is the way that FCA does business and I’ve had to take my jeep then at least eight times for issues since I bought it new and I’ve had it for 13 months. I am never going to trust FCA again. I am going back to General Motors.
I love my 2018 Jeep Compass but I am having issues with the back up camera.
I love my 2018 Jeep Compass but I am having issues with the back up camera. I have had the camera replaced once. This didnt resolve the issue so the radio was replaced. It started having a black screen again. Finally the dealership was able to see this issue and they are ordering yet another radio Another issue I am having is the drivers side seat panel keeps popping out. No Im not morbidly obese. This has been fixed 4 times. I just picked my truck up the Friday after Thanksgiving and it is now back broken. Was told by the dealership these issues are known issues and that I am going to keep having them.
I purchased my 2004 Jeep Liberty in 2006. I have been lucky not to have any
I purchased my 2004 Jeep Liberty in 2006. I have been lucky not to have any problems until three months ago when the rear drivers side window unexpectedly fell. After doing some research (and holding it up with duct tape), I have found out that I cannot simply purchase the regulator slider that is faulty but I have to purchase an entire new motor and regulator with a new window since Jeep has redesigned said parts after finding out their previous design was faulty. I can aptly fix the problem myself but cannot purchase the single part because Jeep no longer allows selling it. This is absurd and a recall should definitely have been issued. I will never buy Chrysler again.

Its hot in Henderson, 110 in the day time. Sometimes the airflow gets stuck on the foot vent setting and will not cycle up to the vents that blow on your face, Not all the time only some times. Currently the dealer is stumped. Bought the car new in 2013. 35,000 miles on it so still under warranty. Has this happened to anyone else?

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.

I bought my first 2014 Jeep Overland and within 3 years my Jeep would just die while driving. Took the vehicle in and they could never figure out what was wrong. I drove it for a couple more months and the same thing would happen that I eventually was so scared to drive my vehicle, more so with my grandkids in the car that I decided to trade it in for another Jeep. I really like the look and feel of the Jeep that I just thought I had a lemon and would buy a new one. So I buy a brand new 2017 Jeep Summit. Has 2000 miles on it and now this one starts to shift gears when it is coasting or coming to a complete stop. I now have been told I need a new transmission in my Jeep. Just so frustrating and really sad that I now have gone through 2 brand new vehicles with Jeep! My dealer has been very reasonable with helping me. I know it is not their fault but what is happening to the Jeep. Wish I would have learned the first time!!

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.
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.

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

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

I purchased a 2019 brand new Jeep Compass in October 2019. The car radio which has all my controls on it went out on 1/14/2020. They are unable to fix it until the second week in February. Jeeps are junk and the service turn around sucks. I would never buy another Jeep again. If you are wondering if Jeep is the way to go I will gladly remind you, they are terrible on gas as well. DO NOT GET A JEEP!!
I purchased this 2007 Jeep Commander when it was 2 years old. It still had
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 was on my first trip to enjoy the fall color on my jeep which at that point had 20k miles on it and found a good spot of highway and felt like using the cruise for the first at a 65 mph speed limit road. When I set it at 65 mph, it was driving smoothly then suddenly it accelerated with a sudden boost of power and picked up speed. I was amazed and intimidated, had to immediately get the car off cruise as it went as high as 70 mph. I have called the dealer and asked him a lot of time after being put on hold for minutes to be told that it was just a one time occurrence and will not happen. I am not satisfied with the explanation that I got and have decided never to use the cruise control again and would advice the same to all traveling with family.

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.
I am writing because I purchased a pre owned certified car and 2 days later
I am writing because I purchased a pre owned certified car and 2 days later a/c had terrible musty chemical smell every time it was turned on. Brought back to dealership 48 hours after purchased, they lied and never told us they had policy where they take car back if within 5 days, instead they jerked our around for over a month and the car was in service 3 times and yet no service, invoices documented. Contacted GM since day of purchase and still no word from him. I have also left numerous messages for serv. mgr. Mike who stated We want you happy. Call me anytime and once again, no callback. NOW, FILED COMPLAINTS WITH JEEP CORP., DCH CORP. because this could be detrimental to my health and wifes or any other passenger.

I have a 2007 Jeep Commander that loses power, no matter how much you push gas car will not go, then after a few minutes car regains power, and it seems to happen every few months.
Bought a 2014 Jeep Patriot on March 21, 2014. I loved it. Less than 3 month
Bought a 2014 Jeep Patriot on March 21, 2014. I loved it. Less than 3 months later, it starts missing and stalling with baby in the car. I rushed it straight to the dealer. They said there was an issue with the computer and the new one should be in the next day. I never heard from them. On the 3rd day I called, lady told me they had found a valve that was sticking and it would be there the next day. I had to work the weekend so I called that Monday. They said the computer was replaced but wasnt talking to the car so they had a specialist coming from Chrysler to see if they could fix it and he gave the number for us to get an advocate from Chrysler. We felt like this should not be happening with a new car with less than 5,000 miles on it. Told them we feel we got a lemon and want a replacement. Nothing extra just the exact same car or a warranty that covers the issue for the time we have the car. We are at week 3 and they still cant fix the car. The guy at the dealership said he had emailed people due to their inability to fix it. Its just sitting out back and I am stuck in a loaner half its size with bald tires that sucks the gas. Chryslers response: I have to continue paying on it. They will not replace it or any other compensation. And if I want a rental that is comparable to what I had, they will pay $25 a day but that is all because Enterprise does not carry their products.

I found out today I bought a 2010 Jeep liberty in 2013 had 19000 miles on it. Never was told it had a recall for leaking water pump. Well I have had it for 7 years. I have 35500 miles on it. Now the water pump is shot again. 2 water pumps in less than 8 years. Seems Jeep has a problem that needs to be addressed. I have no problem fixing what goes wrong but I do have a problem with the same thing having to be fixed in a short period of time. And under 50000 miles pretty pathetic. I would never buy another Jeep of any kind. It should still be under some kind of manufacture warranty under 50000 miles. And if there is a problem in this part then Jeep should be responsible in replacing it. Faulty and cheap.

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?

Ok, I had an issue with my jeep stalling as I was driving. Theres no noise, it ran quietly, but it just stalled. After a little while, I got it started and I went straight home gassing it to get there, then I parked it. After a couple of hours, I went back out to start it and it fired up like no problem occurred! But the next time I got in it, it started; and it was heading down the road, and it stalled on me again in the middle of an intersection endangering my life! Thank God, I had help after an hour or so; and I got it pulled into a parking lot to be towed later. We were told it was probably the fuel filter or pump going bad. So we forked out $200 to get it changed. Did that change the problem? No. It started up again. I took it down the road and it stalled out again. So with this going on, I did some digging on the internet and found others were having these issues.A lot were saying that the PCM module is bad. So I called Jeep to find out about a recall on the PCM module. They said I had to take it to one of their service places to get verification that this was the issue. They couldnt get it to start and said I needed to change an SKIM module ($375.00). Its more out-of-pocket. The reason the SKIM module got burned out, by what the mechanic said, was because of the power control module. So now that 1 month or so has passed and my daughter has a heart condition and my mother is 3 hours away having quadruple bypass surgery, I dont have a vehicle to get there and be with her. And I finally got a response from Jeep Daimler Chrysler that it isnt under warranty to be fixed. Even though its their malfunctioning part that was put on the vehicle when made, they dont want to be accountable for it. So either we pay the $800.00 for the PCM module or I dont have a reliable safe-driving vehicle. How can manufacturers get away with this?

I engaged the 4 wheel drive on my 05 Jeep Liberty Sport edition, which is an automatic, and now, while in 2 Hi, the Part Time indicator light is on, albeit the vehicle is obviously in 2 wheel drive, I can tell it is no longer in 4 Hi or 4 Lo. And when I engage 4 Hi or 4 Lo, the indicator turns off. Any ideas what the issue might be? Is it the Powertrain Control Module? Is it the Transfer Case Position Sensor, or harness? And can I work on it from underneath the vehicle? I have done my research both locally and online, and I have found multiple forums with patrons posing the same problem I have.
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 purchased my 2014 Hero Latitude in Oct 2015. I have had nothing but issue
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 2008 Jeep Patriot. Two years ago the transmission fluid light came
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.
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
Jeep does not takes care of their customer in all fairness. I purchase a 20
Jeep does not takes care of their customer in all fairness. I purchase a 2016 Jeep Renegade Latitude back in November 2016 at Suresky in Goshen NY. In the beginning of 2018 I started getting an issue with my car. I had oil consumption issue. Engine light would come on and the car would feel like as if it’s going to shutdown. Every time I would take to get my oil change, the mechanic would tell me that I have barely have any oil. So I took it to where I purchase the car and explained to them that my issues are with my car. So they did their inspection and testing and at the end they told me that the oil consumption was normal. Mind you I had 45,995 miles and still under warranty. April 29 2019 my car started blowing white smoke out of my tailpipe. Was unable to drive the vehicle home. Following day I took it to the nearest Jeep dealer around my job Croton Auto Park, Croton on Hudson, NY. They did a diagnostic and found #3 cylinder misfires, all my spark plugs are full of oil, a piece of spark plug was found inside the engine and a piece of the piston was to found inside the engine. I called the Jeep FCA opened a case. One of the representatives that helped me open my case told me that my issue with my car was common. She has handled a few of the same issues. The service Manager at the Croton Auto Park also told me that these are very common with the model of my car. I was told that to fix the car it would cost $12,000.00 and the Jeep were only willing to pay $8000 and I have to come up with the other $4000 out of pocket. Now I am 67,000 miles (7000) over the warranty and was told that this is their last offer. I believe that I should not have to pay for any of this because if this was addressed when I brought it in the day that I was still covered under warranty and below the mileage I wouldn’t need to pay anything. This is a manufacture defect. A 2 1/2 year old car having this kind of issues is unheard of. I provided proof of maintenance records. I am a loyal customer with Jeep. I had a 2003 and 2008 Jeep Grand Cherokee, 2016 Jeep Wrangler and now 2018 Jeep Renegade Latitude. I have never had a bad experience with Jeep till now. This is the worst experience I ever had. I am going to continue to post all this in all social media until I am heard and acknowledge.

My radio has a 30-gb hard drive in it. The idea is to be able to load music and pictures and music. The problem is the radio doesnt recognize the USB port, making that option useless. I made 2 attempts to have it fixed. There is no fix and they have no plans to correct the situation.
While out of town on a road trip, my car stalled on the interstate and cut
While out of town on a road trip, my car stalled on the interstate and cut completely off. The inside lights would not work and the dashboard lights began to flicker. It restarted and I was able to pull over at a gas station. Once stopped, a burnt smell and smoke began to come from the gearshift inside the vehicle. I was coming back from out of town and was 2 hours away from home. I was completely stranded with my family and was fortunate enough that the event we were at out of town had a charted bus and I was able to contact them and give us a ride home. Now, my car is 2 hours away from home and I am going to have to pay to get it towed to a dealership. This is completely and utterly dangerous! I looked up my symptoms and I have seen hundreds of complaints of the exact same things happening but no resolution from Chrysler or the dealerships. Consumers should not have to be responsible for manufacture’s defaults. At this point with the hundreds of complaints about the same issue, it is a default!

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

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 have a 2008 Jeep had 53,000 miles problems after problems after problems - front ABS brakes, speed sensors crank sensor, CV boots front problems, inside parts!!! The dealer they have, helped in any way they can!! My advice do not buy a Jeep Patriot!!! To me its a safe jeep!! BEWARE!!!
I have a 2011 Jeep Wrangler 4-door. My soft top leaks which causes a horrib
I have a 2011 Jeep Wrangler 4-door. My soft top leaks which causes a horrible, moldy smell inside the car. Every time that it rains, I have to take all the car mats out of the jeep and dry the rugs with a towel. I then have to go to the back area where there is a storage compartment and scoop out the water that puddles up inside it. I will then keep all the windows open once the sun is out to let the car dry out. The smell still remains for days after. I was stuck in a rainstorm and water was leaking in all around the top of the door. My left arm and leg were both soaked by the time I got to my destination. I am taking the car to the dealer to be evaluated. I asked them if they have been getting many complaints about this and they said no. I dont believe them because I even got a letter from a lawyer who is putting together a lawsuit on behalf of Jeep owners because of mold and electrical problems, which are brought on by the leaky roofs. I hope they do the right thing for me. I am glad that this car is a lease and I will get rid of it in another year. Never again.

I bought my Jeep Liberty Jet in 2014 at 21000 miles, is now 33000 mi. In August I was at the Jersey Shore driving on hwy going 55 mi, car dashboard light up then turned off, lost power. I had no control of acceleration pedal - dropped down to 25 mph, was lucky no cars was behind me. I pulled over to shoulder of road. I turned off car engine then turned back on, it was fine then happened two more times.Another time night interior light came on, didnt go off when I turned off car, did it manually, keyless entry does not work to start car on both keys. I changed battery - first time happened. 2 months after bought car then last month other one dont work. On dashboard gate ajar light does not go off even though flipper glass and lift gate works fine, however I do see when it rains the inside if flipper glass edge inside is wet.When I turn on headlights when dusk outside my dashboard fades out. Bought it to Jeep dealer in Paramus. They said I need to repair TIPM wire and need rear tailgate actuator repair. They said it will cost $1050. Some of these things happened after the recall of the faulty airbags were installed. Also had a misfire #5 code, had it fixed 2 months ago. This car has more issues than Vogue. Hope Chrysler recognizes there are a couple of people on car complaints.com and other website blogs having same problem.Car drives ok but I dont feel safe driving it on hwy. This is my second jeep. I love the car. I buy American Trust in the work but who knows where the parts are being made. Spoke to dealer, lemon law, Jeep complaints, blogged, want to let others know they can be in danger, none of their agencies can do anything about this issue. I have no choice but to pay out of pocket for something that looks like it is a recall/defect especially with the TIPM. Going to get it fixed before I get killed by this jeep.

I recently purchased a used 2007 Jeep Commander with a 5.7L HEMI engine. Before I bought the Jeep, I took it to a Jeep dealership and paid $150 to have a full inspection done. They passed the Jeep so I bought it two weeks ago. In the last two weeks, the Jeep has stalled three times whilst in motion! Last night, it stalled going 75mph on the freeway with kids in the car! This is just not safe! I called the NHTSA and they opened a case for me, but thats all they did for me. I called Jeep Customer Care, and they just told me I need to take it to a dealer and pay to have them diagnose it. I said, I just paid $150 for that. But no, they want me to pay a new fee for a new test. If you look online, this is obviously a very dangerous and very common problem with Jeep Commanders. (I wish I knew before I bought it.) How can Jeep get away with not recalling all of them? How can only certain years be eligible for recall? This is very unsafe. What will it take before Jeep takes action? A death? Im at a loss. I dont know what to do.
First of all, I want to say that up until this last purchase, I have been a
First of all, I want to say that up until this last purchase, I have been a loyal Chrysler customer since the 60s and have purchased about 10 of their vehicles including this 2011 Jeep. My wife and I traded our 2001 Durango 4x4 for the Jeep to be able to continue occasionally exploring back country areas in the Carolinas and Tennessee with the option of a removable soft top. Everybody knows that Jeeps are supposed to be Trail Rated, yet they sell a vehicle that if used off road (just gravel roads) that it will burn up the transmission due to excessive fluid heat. If we did extreme off-roading (mud bogging or rock climbing) like you see Jeeps doing on TV, I might accept having to install additional equipment. Im told by Jeep Customer Service that if I want to use my vehicle this way, I have to pay for installation of an additional transmission cooler. Why didnt the Engineers incorporate that into the vehicle in the first place? I understand they reconfigured the standard cooler into the A/C condenser vs. the Radiator. Did they Trail Test it? Are they willing to lose loyal customers over a couple hundred dollar part? They do install the factory cooler if you get the tow package, but I didnt plan to tow anything with my Jeep so it didnt concern me that the one I bought wasnt equipped with this package. Since Ive dealt with this particular dealership for over 20 years, Ive called and asked for the owner to respond by phone to see if he is more honorable than Chrysler.

In 2012 my air condition went out on my 2007 Jeep Liberty. I paid $1,100 for the dealership to replace it. In 2013, one month after my warranty on the compressor, it went out again. I took it back to the dealership who replaced the dryer, but the mechanic said I needed another compressor. They said this time it would cost another $1300. The compressor lasted the rest of the summer, but this year it has stopped functioning again. I cannot afford to replace the compressor each year! I am now driving my Jeep Liberty without air conditioning. I feel the company and dealership has taking advantage of me because I am a woman and my lack of mechanical knowledge.

Ive had an overall decent experience. I dont love the Jeep but its reliable enough. The Jeeps design and features are very appealing. It has heated seats, a sunroof, a lot of extras, and its nice to look at. There are also chrome rims. It connects my phone through the radio too. Its durable but I bought it certified from the dealer and as soon as the warranty expired I feel like I keep having to replace parts. Ive had a lot of little mechanical issues go wrong as well. Also, when my teenagers sit in the back there isnt much leg room and I cant seem to have enough space to bring things. Our leather seats also get cold in the winter, and have some tiny tears now.

Two 2007 Jeep Liberty Limited had trouble with windows malfunctioning, and is still ongoing.I replaced the AC compressor a year ago. The Jeep does not cool effectively after less than a year. The dealership stated it will not cover AC compressor because it was under warranty.I’m not sure if they put a rebuilt compressor or a new one or if it is another problem. The dealership rode with me and stated the system is working but maybe it is an electrical problem that warrants investigation. I have 50,000 miles on it.

My Jeep Liberty has been a safe, reliable vehicle that has required only routine maintenance. Its got a great capacity in the rear for its size. Convenient when Ive bought small furniture items. I also like the four-wheel drive. We could tow this car behind our RV, and it would support the lift for my husbands mobility scooter without dragging. However, the seats could be more comfortable.

Particulate filter, catalytic converter, broken grommet, etc. - I am going on day 70 without my Jeep Grand Cherokee. 3 months of payments, no car. 3 months of Sirius radio payments, no car. Have heard the part is on back order for many months-Today called the Chrysler number and he said he sent messages but the service tech hasnt responded. 1st they put a new employee on my case. TWO days on the job. Come on guys. Really? Not fair to him or me. 2nd His response: “I will call the dealer and see if the part is there.” Duh dude-NO it is not there. (Oh wait, they forgot to give it to the tech). Then we had a tremendous exhaust leak into the cabin of my car. Car smoking like crazy. How do I file for Lemon Law?

So Chrysler Jeep back in 2007, to sell more vehicles, started offering an unlimited power train warranty, for the life of your vehicle while you owned it, which sounds great. IF THEY TOLD YOU THAT YOU NEEDED TO HAVE AN INSPECTION OR IT WOULD BE VOIDED. Come to find out that apparently itis stated in the documents, you put away after purchase and never at till you need service. Oh we notified you. So they claim that it was to expire. Check your warranty papers. This is bad business. Chrysler has found a way to back out of its commitment again. My vehicle was in for service in Dec 2013, my five years would of been 3 months later. Someone at dealer should of mention. Now that I need the warranty it has been VOID. Thank you.
To start, my father retired from Chrysler and we have always had Chrysler p
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.

I own a 2005 Jeep Liberty which I bought brand new in Dec 2005. This past weekend it broke down - luckily I wasnt driving on the freeway. I heard a clunk and a police officer was behind me and when I stopped to see what it was he said I heard the loud noise. And he then told me that I wouldnt be able to continue driving and it would have to be towed. So I had to wait for a tow for over 45 minutes and the tow person told me that it was a broken rear suspension control arm and he said that there was a recall on this for 2004 and 2005 Jeep Liberties.So I called Woodhouse in Blair and was informed that because my vehicle wasnt put together in the right state that my Vin# wasnt on the recall list. This is a bunch of B.S. I have purchased Three Jeeps. But I will never again purchase a Chrysler product. They have lost my business forever. If the part is defective it should go for all Jeep Libertys. Just because you dont live in the right state they wont cover it. Chrysler Corporation SUCKS!!! I Hope your corporation goes Bankrupt it will serve you right. And lets hope no one gets killed in an accident that is the cause of your company not wanting to fix something that has been recalled, but they wont fix it because the car wasnt put together in the correct State.

My 2007 jeep commander wants to stall when starting off. It remains locked at 35 mph, until I shift it to neutral, and back to drive. The dealer cannot find the problem. I fear that it will get me into an accident at some point.

We bought a 2018 Jeep Wrangler. The Stabilizer shock went out at about 6,000 miles. The rear end went completely out at 12k miles. Never been off-roading either. Been at the shop for two months now. Cannot get parts. Keep getting the runaround and parts not expected for another two months. Got a Wrangler rental, stabilizer shock went out at 6500 miles on the rental... I wish I could get my money back. I do not recommend them at all.

On May 19 I was told I need a transfer case which would be covered under warranty. It is now August 2 and I am being told it will still take another week. I can barely drive the car. Ive been told repeatedly that it would be in on a certain date, only to have the date slip week by week. I now understand why they refused to give me a tracking # the last time I called. Each time they pass me to a different case manager. I am convinced that Chrysler just doesnt want to do warranty service.

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.

The transmission on my 2015 has been recalled. It takes attention to shifting and does not have a positive feel for which gear it goes into. I have driven a new Jeep every 2 yrs. and have been happy in the past. I hate the new electronic controlled 9 gear shift mechanism. Before Fiat got involved the Jeeps were great.

I have not had an accident and nobody has hit me. I have a 2003 Jeep Liberty and the airbag light has come on for the drivers side. This is a safety factor of the vehicle. And I would like to know why it is not a recall. Please email me and let me know. I dont think it is fair to make me pay for this to be repaired. Thank you.Jane **

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

Just hit 22,000 miles on my new 2017 Jeep Willys, only highway driving, less than two years old. The factory installed tires are in need of replacement. If you are planning on buying a one then request that the factory installed tires are replaced with a more reliable tire. A couple donuts from Dunkin would last longer than the factory installed tires.

Jeep Commander 2007 Stalling Problem for 4 Years: The Commander will start
Jeep Commander 2007 Stalling Problem for 4 Years: The Commander will start stalling 1st time after 30,000 work is completed. It will stall once every two weeks or so and escalate to several times a day. When I take it in for service, unless they can duplicate the issue, they make us take it back. So, we are, basically, driving it until it will stall daily. We have nearly (my wife and my daughter) been in two accidents due to the stalling, with cars coming at us in excess of 60 miles per hour. Eventually, we will get to the point that it will stall and all the lights will cut off and it will turn back on while driving on the highway at 55 miles per hour. We have filed 2 suits with Chrysler ** and **. They are this point putting the pressure on our service company, Prince Frederick, MD Jeep, and they have done everything they can. Chrysler is acting as if they have never heard of my situation and the danger they are putting my family in. However, I can find investigations on my year and model on Consumer Affairs and USDT Investigation EA07-007 and PE07-009 as well as a ConsumerAffairs.com report dated 5/01/07 pertaining to this matter. We are so worried as what to do. I can not drive with my daughter and my husband drives all the way, too, into DC from Dunkirk, MD and I worry about his safety. I just want a safe vehicle for my family and they use us as there guinea pigs to drive until it is in a bad state and very frightening. We have lots of hills and people drive very fast in this area which makes it more frightening to stall. My daughter is too afraid to get in the Jeep and she cried last time we nearly were hit on our way to take her to school. Please help us. We dont want to trade it in so another family could be hurt and be in this situation or a teenager!
The seat cracks constantly, yet intermittently, in the lumbar area. After r
The seat cracks constantly, yet intermittently, in the lumbar area. After replacing the same part 3 times I contacted Jeep customer assist. They proved to be 100% worthless, calling constantly and repeating only the information I had originally given three months prior. I asked for some research to be done, knowing that others on line had similar issues. After writing to the corporate office I finally got someone to listen. Chrysler paid for me to have a third party modify the seat back mechanism. The problem is that the part is too short and in a certain area it slides off the plastic and causes the cracking sound. It can be fixed and they will pay, but you must be tenacious.
I bought a 2007 Jeep Liberty in 2010. The first problem was with the window
I bought a 2007 Jeep Liberty in 2010. The first problem was with the windows. They keep coming off-track. After months of dealing with Orr Honda in Texarkana, AR, they said they were finally fixed by replacing the regulators or something like that in each of them. Less than 6 months later, the rear driver side went out. They said that I had just ran out of warranty and it would be $330.00. Then, the driver side window went out and today, the passenger window went out. I cannot afford all of these window problem. I have had people come up to me and say, have your windows gone out yet? Or say, I see your windows are wedged, I had to keep mine that way until I got rid of it. Is there somewhere I can turn to with the company?

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.
After having a tiny fender bender, or flair bender in this case my car need
After having a tiny fender bender, or flair bender in this case my car needed to have some minor work done. After waiting a month for parts I decided I was tired of waiting. I was going to be proactive and go above the body shop to see if I could get any help. After contacting several dealers who could not answer the simplest questions about the parts, I decided to call Jeep on my own. I used both the listed contact email and phone number from their website. After being put on intergalactic hold on 1st call, hung up on when I asked to speak to a mgr on the 2nd call, the third call and 3 hours of time actually let me start a case claim. I was told their “excellent “ customer service dept would get back to me within 48 hrs. That’s not excellent when you are having issues that have already taken a month to be addressed. I have to be honest when I say I couldn’t wait the 48 hrs and called back after 24. Again given a scripted runaround statement or “FACTS” as they called it and told that I could keep waiting for my case person to contact me but they were not going to tell me anything different than what she did. Her name was SHAY and she supposedly is the end all be all of customer service at Jeep. She has no boss, no training personnel, or any other contact information to give you. No way to even report the fact that she was extremely belittling. So that’s it! Final answer! Do not pass go do not collect 200 bucks. So in short I have been left in a perpetual waiting period, for some parts out there in the universe. They may come in they may not. And as for as Jeep is concerned I don’t think they care one bit if you were happy with your purchase, happy with their customer service or about you at all. They will NOT stand behind their brand, or give you any assistance once you drive that car off the lot. I’d be happy to speak with anyone at Jeep other than the call center people who I feel were not only unhelpful but downright rude... But I’m not holding my breath.

2012 Jeep Liberty Sky rider roof will not stay closed. I took it back to the dealer and they stated that Jeep no longer repairs the Sky Slider roof. Took it to a repair shop and they told me that they could not find parts as Jeep stop making it and there is no after market. I am stuck with nowhere to go. Jeep/Chrysler should do something to help all the Jeep aficionados who have the Sky Slider roof.

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.
If I can save even ONE person from throwing their money away on a Jeep Rene
If I can save even ONE person from throwing their money away on a Jeep Renegade Sport, that’s great! I have this car under lease. 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. A conservative estimate of the work needed is about $10,000. I had to cover $2,000 of it myself. Never ever not ever would I recommend anyone buy a Jeep.

I have always been a Jeep fan, from the time of childhood. I loved everything about them, the look, the engine, the fact that they were American made, and the impression that they took care of their customers. Sadly something as little as an auxiliary cord insert has changed all that. After my auxiliary cord started to malfunction I took the car into the jeep dealership to get it looked at. They sprung their diagnosis fee at me last minute which so happened to be $100 dollars, to look at the radio. They came back to tell me conveniently that this issue couldnt be fixed and that I would need an entire new radio which would be extra, of course. Knowing exactly what happened to the auxiliary cord, I questioned their diagnosis.So I contacted the company directly, which apparently means to them that I didnt understand what was being told to me at the dealership, so they clarified all the information, (basically a waste of time with ID member **), who also failed to answer my other question of who is supervisor was and how to contact them. What makes matters worse is that I was informed in the waiting room by a fellow customer, how to fix the problem for only $50. I had already agreed to the diagnosis fee, assuming the Jeep Company had their customers interests at heart. Instead I felt like it was another situation of a big company taking advantage of the little guys, for a small price.After seeing their reviews, it doesnt surprise me that their customer service rate is so low. It seems as though Jeep is trying to fix that the wrong way. All of the employees were very nice telling me they were unable to fix the problem, but thats not what customer service is about. Its not about being nice. Its about having your customers best interest at heart and that is NOT a Jeep thing.Further information, I have had the car 2 years and as great as it has treated me, its not a car I would recommend. I got into a minor fender bender a couple of months back where I hit another car going 10 mph. There was no visible damage to either cars, so we just exchanged information and went our separate ways. The Next day my check engine light went on and my car started to act funky, so I took it into Midas. They told me that it looked like my car hit a metal pole, with all the damage that was created, $900 of internal damages after a hit going 15 mph.Another issue Ive had with the car was its roaders. My aunt drove my car over a parking curb. That one bump created an additional $800 bill because the roaders are not make to support that type of maneuver. (Rolling OVER a CURB.) Jeeps get a fake rap for being tough. That is not the case with the patriot. I am done with Jeeps based on their priorities alone. Take care of your mechanics (who get paid by the customer btw, not the company). Take care of your customers, and maybe your cars.

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.

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

The 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.

We were stopped at a red light when my 1999 Jeep took off by itself. Even with both feet trying to hold the breaks we still ended up going thru the intersection. Very scary. Then about 20 minutes later on interstate the Jeep slowed itself down to 30 mph when we were originally traveling at 75 mph.

In 2010, I purchased a used 2007 Jeep Liberty Sport through a dealership. Within the first month after purchase, a mechanism within the front drivers side door broke causing the window to slip inside the door and become unusable. The dealership repaired the part free of charge as the vehicle was new to me. In 2012, the same mechanism broke again. This time, I was told by the dealership that this is a common problem but I was forced to pay for the repair as Jeep has not yet recalled the mechanism.Yesterday, December 21, 2013, the mechanism broke again this time inside the passengers front side door. I have called the dealership to schedule the repair but currently my window is being held up with duct tape. I do not think I should have to pay for the repair as this is an ongoing issue and obviously the cause of a defective part. Jeep should recall the component and/or develop a mechanism that does not break so easily. I have already filed a complaint with the NHTSA and Jeep headquarters.
I purchased a 2011 Jeep Patriot in August 2011. I like my Jeep, but the pro
I purchased a 2011 Jeep Patriot in August 2011. I like my Jeep, but the problem I am encountering with the CVT Transmission is frustrating and concerning. In less than a year of having my Jeep, I began to notice a whining noise and the RPM getting stuck as if the transmission was not shifting. When I took it into my dealer’s service department, they said they couldnt find anything wrong. The assistant service manager suggested it was the wind I was hearing. A couple of months later, the same issues were happening regularly, but now the transmission temperature warning light came on. I again took it to the dealership. This time, I was again told they checked it out, couldnt find anything wrong, and they said they couldnt diagnose it unless the light was on.The next time the issue occurred, I was traveling to visit my parents 45 minutes away. The temperature warning light came on about 40 minutes into the drive. Once I got to my parents house, I decided to take it to the Jeep Dealership there. Unfortunately, when I started the Jeep, the light was off, making the trip to the out of town dealership pointless. In the last two months, the same issues have occurred, but on two occasions, my Jeep went into LIM (limp in mode), which forcibly slowed the vehicle down and required me to pull over on the Interstate for the transmission to cool down. After the first time it went into LIM, I called Jeep Customer Service to see what suggestions they had. The customer service representative with Jeep was nice, advised they had never heard of this problem, and instructed me to follow up the dealership.Before making yet another appointment with the dealership, I decided to do some general research on CVT Transmission in Jeep. I was totally surprised to see consumer comments of the exact same issues, especially after the Jeep representative said Jeep hadnt heard of this problem. One of these reviews suggested recording the issue. Within a week, it happened again! This time I recorded the noise, the temperature warning light coming on, and having to pull over. I took the video to the dealership. This time, the same assistant manager said, Every Jeep with CVT Transmission has that issue.I asked about switching out the transmission. He advised there isnt a way to convert the transmission. He also said Jeep hasnt released a fix yet. So, my not even two year old Jeep, which is still under the manufacturer warranty, is defective with no fix for the issue. In the mean time, I cant drive my Jeep out of town and feel unsafe driving it. To top it all off, the CVT Transmission was a $1,000 upgrade! I feel like I have no options, but to retain an attorney and file a complaint under my state’s lemon law and the Magnuson Moss Warranty Act.

I bought my 2017 Jeep Renegade Limited in January 2018. Less than 2 years old.. My problem started around 16k miles. (Im now at about 23k). Friday I go in for my 3rd consumption test. Im burning oil. Getting to the dangerous part of the dipstick after 1000 miles, I didnt buy a new car so I have to babysit the oil level in it.. Its not the 1970s! Why should I burn 1 quart of oil per 1000 miles? Other newer cars can go 10k miles between oil changes, I feel duped and cheated. I also think theres something wrong with the low oil sensor, it only comes on when I take extreme turns and doesnt stay on. Im busy with my eyes on the road taking the turn, not watching my dash.. I had to have a passenger point it out to me!

Ive always owned cars and I love SUVs. This Jeep Liberty has good gas mileage but had horrible suspension. Engine had to be replaced ball joints twice and locks keep malfunctioning. It does go good in the winter and four wheel drive is tricky but when you get it it works good. Price and the body style was also nice. It is roomy, convenient and I like the color, too. But a CD player, better engines and a better suspension would be nice. And fix the four wheel drive as well.

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

I 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
My husband and I have been lifelong Jeep owners, until now. We decided to u
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.
After a 60,000 mile service, I drove from New England to Florida, 1560 mile
After a 60,000 mile service, I drove from New England to Florida, 1560 miles. Gas mileage dropped from the usual 20-21 mpg to 16 mpg. I had the local dealer diagnose the cause. No problem they say. Updated the computer, otherwise all is gut. Now getting 13 mpg around town, 15 at steady speed (65) over 150 mi trips. Checked the computer read against manual mileage calculation. They agree. No smoke, steady, smooth idle, good engine response as usual. What the heck happened?

I have a 2007 Jeep Commander. I have been having issues with not starting/stalling. I can be driving and when I shut it off and then go to turn it back on, it will not start. All I hear is a clicking noise under the hood by the long black fuse box. The lights, radio, etc. all works--it just wont start. This only happens every so often. I have not been able to narrow it down. No one seems to be able to pinpoint what the problem is. I have had so much money wrapped into figuring this out. I went online to try to see if anyone else has these issues. I was amazed at how many complaints of my kind there are. Wow. Jeep is getting away with this. I have been stranded so many times and unable to drive my Jeep Commander.

Overall a great car, especially for New England weather. Great handling and control in snow! Very comfortable interior with plenty of space. Holds more than expected when I moved, which was a great surprise. Only issue is once they hit about 9 years old, the repair bills start and come often and at an up there price tag. If you dont have a trusted mechanic, youll want to find one once that 9 year mark hits.
My 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk with 19,000 miles on was great right up unt
My 2019 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk with 19,000 miles on was great right up until the Power Transfer Unit failed which in turn cause the transmission to catastrophically fail. Jeep is refusing to cover the $13,000 repair bill under warranty. As I was coming to a stop at a rural intersection, I got hung up on a small snow drift. After about 30 minutes of getting in and out of the car while trying all the different 4x4 modes and shoveling, everything exploded. By exploded, I mean I was picking up shrapnel off the ground and transmission fluid was pouring out. This happened while the transmission temp gauge was no higher than 180f. When a person is stuck in the snow, it usually requires spinning the tires a bit, trying to go both forward & reverse, etc. I wont say I was babying the Cherokee, because I wasnt, but I was not revving it up to redline or being overly hard on it. Jeep of course is trying to say its all my fault but as of this moment, they have not released any specific details to me on exactly how it was my fault or what the criteria is for it being my fault. I do know that after buying a brand new $40,000 Jeep vehicle, I wont ever buy an FCA product again. Dont believe the all weather capable hype, the photos I have prove that it isnt!
Currently, new power train motor mount, car is stalling and stops. Chrysler
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.

2008 JEEP Liberty 2x4 Sport - I was driving on I-75 listening to my stereo to drown out the Wind noise from my SKY SLIDER WHEN THE ROOF POPPED and SLAMMED OPEN. Something flew out, what sounded like on of the brace bars, it was dark. I was So thankful no one was behind me. I Took it to Brandon Chrysler Dodge & JEEP. Unfortunately they dont seem to be able to FIX ANYTHING without Screwing more thing up...I now have an improperly installed Slider Top with GREASE and Water Stains to match the carpet they botched. ON their first attempt to fix the fact that the top would not close completely. Funny how they cannot seem to find any problems until after a major issue happens. I Love my Jeep and Slider top but they are noisy and unpredictably dangerous.

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.

I have a 2010 Jeep Liberty with less than 50,000 miles. I have had it serviced 3 times. It will drive fine for a while then stall. This is very dangerous. It had stalled on the hwy and once when my baby was in the car.
My wife and daughter visiting New Mexico. On way home in 2015 Jeep Renegade
My wife and daughter visiting New Mexico. On way home in 2015 Jeep Renegade on the August 25th had check engine light come on and had to tow vehicle to mechanic who look at vehicle reset light and said all looked fine. Next day just outside Colorado Springs engine light came back on, had vehicle towed again to Faricy Boys dealership, which inspected vehicle and found cooling fan relay bad and would have to order part. Now after weekend Monday was assured would have part by Wed. the 30th at which time was told no part is coming and did not know when part would arrive. Now 5 days later speaking with parts department manager telling me I did not give them enough time to locate part and offered no solution but to wait another 2 days.Now my wifes father was being admitted to hospital for heart issues and my daughter starting college that week. With no choice now and could not afford to keep them in Colorado costing already $1200 without food expenses fly them back home to Michigan $850. Now after hours of being on phone with, Im sorry and promises a case manager would contact me which during the whole time even the 60 day case review did someone contact me. The people at Faricy Boys felt really bad and after waiting 2 WEEKS TO GET A PART TO FINALLY FIX VEHICLE, Faricy Boys felt bad and tried to get someone from FCA do the right thing and arrange for shipment of vehicle home.Being on Social Security Disability for terminal illness stage 4 cancer this is really wearing on me. Emotionally stressed out and financially draining. Now again wasting time on the phone told me, Sorry again. We will have case manager call you back which never did. Now I had to pay another $700 to ship vehicle home. Now I was given a number to the office of the president at FCA who was going to supposedly be able to help me recoup some expenses but once again was let down. They have quite the setup with customer service. You will never be able to really speak to anyone of importance. Now after waiting their 60 days for case review they tell me when I called again they did not receive my receipts which I spent another $60 at UPS store emailing and faxing.After resending and calling to make sure they received them which they confirmed they did tried to do the same thing and tell me they did not have them. But during the phone call which like them for quality purposes recorded told her, You sure you do not have them because the other women I spoke to said they were in my case file. Now it was, Oh ya. Here they are. Im sorry. I will again have your case manager call you after review, which I told her the 60 days was up. One of the last times I called they had the wrong case number this time then continued to tell me the only receipt she had was one from AutoZone for $86. Enough is enough at this point I was like and this women sympathetic sorry sorry. I would be happy to just get reimbursed for $850 airfare and $700 shipping.After all this I have yet to receive one phone call from FCA to do the right thing. I have been a loyal customer for more than 20 years and currently lease 2 vehicles but they are the last. This 2 dollar part which they did not have is all because this Jeep is made in Italy. They had to take it off assembly line. What a joke. No parts for a vehicle they have been making for several years, and the big thing was always, Im sorry. This part is on back order. You have to wait your turn. This whole time I tried to get a loaner car. They would not even do that for me. Had to cancel plans going anywhere for holiday weekend, would not even help with loaner. Shame on you FCA. Shame poor customer service. I was hung up on, lied to. Poor way of doing business.
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!
Car Continues to have problems after multiple repairs. Jeep has recall P41
Car Continues to have problems after multiple repairs. Jeep has recall P41 (from Sept 3, 2014) that parts have not been made available for. 2006 Jeep Commander Issues: Sept 2013 -- Stalled, Shut Down, No Start. Piston Replaced Est. Cost ($1000) -- Repaired at Independent Auto Repair. Car stalled/shut down while driving approximately 25mph. Car restarted after about 5 tries and was driven “home”. No restart. Vehicle was towed to mechanic. Piston was replaced. Car never worked properly since. Jeep would pulsate when slowing down or stopped. Intermittent and random hesitation and acceleration. April 2014 -- Stalled, Shut Down, No Start -- Est. Cost $500 -- Repaired by Independent Mechanic. Starter Replaced/New Battery (approx. mileage 86,000).(My 66 yr old mother driving alone.) Car stalled while driving at approximately 25mph. After about 10 minutes and several attempts car restarted for a short distance (about 1 mile) and stalled again while driving. Car was towed “home”. Independent mechanic replaced battery and solenoid/starter. June 2014 -- No Start, “Transmission over Temp”-- Est. Cost $800 -- Repaired by Independent Mechanic. Jeep would start for very short period, over-heat and shut down. Would restart after cooling. “Transmission over Temp” light on dash. Hoses and water pump replaced. Blower motor replaced (a/c & heat hadnt worked in over a year). Replacing blower motor did allow a/c & heat to work BUT only on high.July 2014 -- Stalled, Shut Down, No Start (Towed In) Est. Cost $600 Approx. Mileage 92,000 - To Dealership. Dealership can’t find any problems. Had Tune-Up. Replaced spark plugs, etc. Vehicle was hesitating while driving. Engine light on. Dash lights would come on and shut completely off while driving. After car was shut off it wouldnt restart. Windows wouldnt work or if they finally engaged would go up and down sporadically. Car horn came on by itself and wouldnt shut off until relay was taken out. Windshield wipers went haywire. Jeep was TOWED to dealership because it wouldnt start… Therefore, it wouldnt run, but the dealership couldnt find anything wrong with it. Tune-up was done and the Jeep, somehow, ran.Sept 2014 -- Stalled, Shut Down, No Start (Towed In) Est Cost $600 Approx. Mileage 94,000 - To Dealership. Starter Replaced, New Battery. Car started hesitating while driving. Dash lights would all come on and then all shut off. When coming to a stop or slowing down car would lose power. At stops, would have to keep foot on gas to keep car from stalling. While coming to an intersection to make a left turn on a green turn arrow car wouldn’t engage to excel. My 7 year old daughter was in the car. I feared we were going to stall in the middle of the intersection of a busy street. All the dash lights came on and shut off repeatedly as we coasted around the turn. Car re-engaged and we pulled into a parking lot. Shut the car off. Went into Walmart. When we came out car started. Engine light on. Being only 1 mile from home we drove home. The next morning car wouldnt start. Got a new battery. Car still wouldnt start. Had it towed to dealership. Dealership replaced solenoid/starter.Sept 2014 -- Hesitates, Lights on dash on and off, Engine light on, problems starting. Drove to Dealership. Dealership can’t find any problems. Again, dashboard lights came and all shut off. Jeep is/was hesitating while driving and not engaging/changing gears while driving. Also, periodically accelerates randomly while driving. Dealership suggests replacing control module ($1300) and having wiring harness diagnosed ($600 for diagnosis not to fix it -- est. cost to replace wiring harness $1500 to $3000). But, they do NOT know what is wrong with the Jeep.Oct. 2014 -- Hesitates, Random Acceleration, Dash lights all on to all off. -- No Fix. Vehicle continues to have problems. As I cannot afford to keep replacing parts or diagnosing issues I drive it as it. I have 3 children that I will not drive in the Jeep any further away from home than a mile or 2… and will only drive with the children in the car on side streets or back roads. Therefore, my children do not go anywhere except the local park, to school, or to a friend’s house that lives nearby. They do not go to any store with me that is farther than 1 mile away, or that main roads have to be taken to get to it. Not included in the costs above are the car rental fees I have had to pay each time the car was under repair.Other misc. problems: Broken Door Handle, Sun Roof doesnt close properly, Poor Paint (Thin - scratches and rust), rough drive, a/c & heating only work on high. Chrysler issued recall P41 (Faulty Ignition) on Sept. 3 2014 but parts are not made to fix the problem YET. 2 Months from issued recall we are still waiting for Chrysler to make and distribute parts. Chrysler issued recall on Sept 21 (maybe 23) for recall of TIPM but only for SOME of the vehicles affected. 11/21/2014 Jeep lost power at 35mph. Re-engaged. 11/25/2014 Jeep lost power at 25mph. Re-engaged. 11/26/2014 Jeep lost power at 35mph. Re-engaged. Called Chrysler and was told there is nothing they can do about recall parts as the parts are not ready. There is no sense continuing to take the vehicle to be serviced as the problem does not seem to be able to be diagnosed properly. It does not seem to be able to be fixed.

There is a recall notice out there for those of you who have problems with your window regulator. My wifes sister had hers fail (2009 Jeep Liberty) and paid $450 to have it repaired. A recall notice was generated and she was paid for this repair. Check it out.

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 have a 06 Jeep Commander. I took it in for a recall. A week later I started experiencing electrical problems with the dashboard going haywire. I took it back to Jeep dealer and they said that it was a Chrysler Jeep Star Case and they would cover any and all repairs. Half hour later they call back and say its not covered and it will be $346.00. Needless to say I was very angry but what could I do, needed my car, so bummed!!
