Example complaints

“I almost had fatal crash with my children because of 'death wobble'. It's not funny & Jeep needs to be sued for refusing to address this issue! Over 50 times when traveling 65 MPH the vehicles shakes uncontrollably forcing me to come to a complete stop on the highway. Why are they allowed to get away with this!!!”

“No matter how long the Jeep runs I only have heat on the passengers side. I have verified that my blend doors are working. Living in colorado this is a huge issue, my windshield does not defrost completely.”

NHTSA complaint #11152221, filed 2018-11, 130,000 miles

“My Jeep with 86k miles engine blew. One week earlier when driving over 40 miles per hour it seemed to wobble a bit from left to right, I thought maybe it was because I had 4 wheel drive on. I have only owned it for a month and it is a 2nd vehicle and I was not sure if that was normal or not. Then after not driving the vehicle for 4 days I moved it out of my driveway and was less then a block from my home when the oil light came on and half a block later the engine cut out. The car wouldnt start again and I had it towed to the dealer where I purchased it. …”

NHTSA complaint #11065801, filed 2018-01, 86,000 miles

“2007 Jeep wrangle sahara four door four wheel drive six speed standard . While driving vehicle at 60mph while hitting a minor bump in roadway sends vehicle into a vigorous shaking. This is not a minor shaking it sends vehicle into a very rapid side to side pulling motions. I was barley able to pull off the highway safely with my two year old and 6 months old daughters in the Jeep during the incident. The Jeep is 100% stock no after market parts and I am the original owner.”

NHTSA complaint #10382504, filed 2011-02, 36,001 miles

“Hit 50 miles an hour and violent shaking occurred. Had to stop quickly and pull off the side of the road. Extremely hard to steer to get off the road. Had parts replaced. Never fixed the problem. Jeep fails to acknowledge the problem. I had it back in shop with extensive work done this year. Still no fix. At a loss. My daughter refuses to ride it in as we almost hit someone head on because I was unable to control the steering when the death wobble happened. Have also had it happen where it put me off into the side of a ditch. I have doctor appointments due to cancer an hour away. …”
