Example complaints

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

“Car loses power while driving. All dash lights go off and then come back on quickly. Chrysler did recall Jeep wranglers for this problem, but when I asked the service department, they told me mine was not one that was recalled. This has happened several times in the year that I have owned the Jeep, most recently march 11, driving at 35mph.”

NHTSA complaint #10220906, filed 2008-03, 23,350 miles

“My 2007 Jeep wrangler has had engine stall two times now at 50-60 MPH. Causing light failure, engine failure, no brakes or power steering. I have taken it to the dealership two times, after restarting the vehicle. The next time it happens, they said call a tow truck and have it towed to them. This started at approximately 26,000 miles and again at 30,000. Both times nothing was found and the computer programs were current.”

NHTSA complaint #10306547, filed 2010-02, 26,000 miles

“After driving my 07 wrangler home from work, approximately 35 minutes, I parked in my drive way and the under part of my Jeep caught on fire and then the Jeep exploded, catching my house on fire. My driveway is on an downward incline.”

NHTSA complaint #10450690, filed 2012-03, 65,000 miles

“I exited the highway on to the ramp doing 35mph and in the turn I lost all power,the engine shut down,within a few seconds all the dash lights came on and the engine restarted. I almost lost control but it restarted in time. I talked to the dealer about this but they told me they know nothing of this.”

NHTSA complaint #10194059, filed 2007-06, 2,350 miles

“At 65 MPH all dash lights came on as if Jeep had lost power and came back on. I looked online for any incidences like this and found a news story that said chrysler was being investigated and was to recall 80,000 jeeps. I called chrysler and they denied we have a problem and they were unwilling to even look at my Jeep because they claim the VIN number didn't match the recall. Meanwhile I am driving a Jeep unsure if it will stall out at highway speeds.”
