“My air conditioning went out took it to a couple different garages and they said it's a sensor in the passenger mirror called ambient temperature sensor. Now it won't register the temperature outside so it won't let my air conditioning run. This Jeep was bought brand new shouldn't have this happening it's only 5 years old. I have children and can't even use air conditioning in a newer car.”

“My check engine light came on and the thermostat light continued to rise until my car shut down. After letting it sit for about 5 minutes it started again. The engine light remained on and if I idle at all the thermostat climbs. I took it to my mechanic and he told me it was listed as a recall as the engine overheats and faulty cooling system. I haven't seen a recall but have seen similar complaints.”
