Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I had just picked my 5 year old daughter up from school and we was on our way home; we went to turn the corner and it felt like that back of my Jeep was falling off. I lost control and went off the road a bit. Regained control and got the vehicle stopped. Shortly after I got ahold of my step dad and we managed to get the Jeep to the dealership and come to find out my rear control arms broke. Out of nowhere I had no warning or anything I know there is usually some sort of warning when the control arms are about to break.”
NHTSA complaint #10574772, filed 2014-03, 113,000 miles“August 1, 2015 the left rear passenger window dropped and the rear of the vehicle. In the same month my Jeep started to slightly fishtail as if driving in very strong/ high winds. Lastly on november 28, 2015 the passenger air bag sign is showing passenger airbag off when it was never a illuminated before.”
