Example complaints

Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.

“It was a rainy day. I pulled my car in to the garage and shut off the engine. Pulled out the key and entered my house. The garage is connected to my home. I came back to the garage some time later to find the engine was still on. I ran to the drivers seat to see no key in the ignition and verified the remote engine feature wasn't engaged, it is designed to turnoff after the car door is open for a short time. The engine wouldn't shut off. I brought it to my husband, who drove it a bit and could not get the engine off. Eventually it self corrected. …”

“Instruments lights off and on(battery, check engine, air bags, breaks, etc), transmission overheat information light, vehicle shuts off while driving or won't start or loose power,computer tells mechanics a new module needed, but new module do not fix the problem. Had transmission services, and mechanic check out, but nothing worked.”

NHTSA complaint #11101213, filed 2018-06, 199 miles

“Vehicle has a recall p41/NHTSA 14v-438 that was issued over a year ago. I received a second notice a couple weeks ago that the issue had finally been resolved and to make an appointment with my local Jeep dealer. Dealer is still unable to address the recall and could not give a time when the vehicle could be serviced. The problems with the ignition have become more frequent over the last 3 months. Lights will turn on and off within the vehicle. I am unsure if turning signals and brake signals are affected by this problem.”
