Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“It began to rain so we turned on our wipers only to find that we had no wipers. They will turn on sometimes, but only on the highest setting, yet at a less than minimal speed. We thought it could be a loose connection or something seeing as our vehicle is only 3 years old, but when we went to the Jeep dealership to fix it theft said it was the wiper computer module and would cost nearly 1000 dollars to fix. Unfortunately we did not have the money at the time to replace it.”
NHTSA complaint #10350786, filed 2010-08, 99,000 miles“My 2007 Jeep patriot continues to leak water from the interior. After being into the dealer 3 times in still leaks water from the front interior dome light, left and right front pillars. Water leaking into the car has caused electrical shortages in the sunroof, radio, and switches in the door.”
NHTSA complaint #10609017, filed 2014-07, 30,000 miles“It began to rain so my girlfriend turned on the wipers only to find that she had no wipers. They will turn on sometimes, but only on the highest setting, yet at a less than minimal speed. We thought it could be a loose connection or something seeing as our vehicle is only 4 years old, but when we went to the Jeep dealership to fix it they said that there was nothing wrong with it the computer that they hooked it up to said it had no problems. Well guess what it still does it so what are we suppose to do about it now?”
