Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“I have noticed at high speeds when I am driving and I go over a pot hole or even when I go over a rumble strip I get an aggressive steering wheel shake. Another issue would be the passenger visor it broke when my vehicle only had 36,600k miles. I hardly use the visor one day my passenger out the visor down to cover the sun from face and it just fell from the corner.”
NHTSA complaint #11405876, filed 2021-03, 36,000 miles“Rear side windows on 2019 Jeep Wrangler blew out while at highway speeds, even when installed properly. On our Jeep, the window didn't completely fall out, so it was disconnected and was hanging. Others I have known have lost their windows on the highway and had to wait weeks or months for replacement windows because there aren't enough available to dealers.”
NHTSA complaint #11267910, filed 2019-10, 7,500 miles“It was a bight sunny afternoon when I was driving my new 2019 Jeep home from the dealer, with only 39 miles on the motor, I pulled down the sun visor while driving to block the sun...the visor fell out of the mounting bracket, hanging by the wire connecting the lights for the mirror, blocking about 3/4 of the windshield, and obstructing my view while driving 100%. I was able to pull over & push it back into the mounting bracket, only to have it fall out when hitting any bump, no matter the speed. …”
NHTSA complaint #11387728, filed 2021-01, 39 miles“Please check if there is a flaw in 2018-20 Jeep Wrangler windshields. They easily crack, multiple times. There are entire websites and community groups experiencing this problem. I also own a 2014 Wrangler, and have replaced the windshield twice. With my 2019 model, I have had multiple cracks and replaced two windshields in under 3500 miles of a brand new car. Yet, the 2019 model has a more angled windshield than the previous model. The issue occurs at road to highway speeds and simple pebbles. Again, my two replaced windshields had multiple streaks, cracks, spiders, et al before replacing. …”
NHTSA complaint #11290191, filed 2019-12, 1,750 miles“Lowered the windshield per the user manual for the first time on 4/3/21. 2 of the 4 bolts holding the windshield to the frame were present but not tightened. Unknown if they loosened while operating the vehicle, which has approximately 20,000 miles currently, or whether they were loose from the factory.”
