2016 Jeep Wrangler Complaint Log

FRONT FRAME CROSS MEMBER BRACKETS CRACKED, MAJOR CRACK RIGHT SIDE, CRACK LEFT SIDE. THIS IS THE MOST FRONT FRAME ACROSS THE FRONT BOTTOM BELOW FRONT OF ENGINE. NOTE A ROADMASTER TOWING BASE PLATE IS ATTACHED TO THIS AREA. THIS JEEP IS REGULARLY TOWED BEHIND A MOTORHOME. APPROX 45000 DRIVING PLUS 40000 BEING TOWED. IF BASEPLATE CAME OFF, JEEP WOULD DETACH INCL SAFETY CABLES. STICKER SAYS INSPECT EVERY 3000 MILES, NEVER SAW THAT BEFORE.

EXPERIENCE MAJOR LIFTING AND FLUTTERING OF THE HOOD AT SPEEDS AT OR OVER 65 MPH. MOST SEVERE WHEN DRIVING DOWN TWO LANE HWY AND LARGER TRUCKS LIKE SEMIS PASS ONCOMING.

WHILE PUTTING ON THE SEAT BELT THE ANCHOR BRACKET JUST BROKE OFF RIGHT ABOVE THE BOLT. I BOUGHT THE CAR NEW IN 2016 AND ONLY HAS 62,300 MILES. BUT THIS PART SHOULD NEVER EVER BREAK. THE CAR WAS STATIONARY. *DT *DT *DT *TR *DT*JB

TAKATA RECALL. I HAVE BEEN ON THE PHONE WITH JEEP (833-585-0144) TO GET MY AIRBAG REPLACED ON NUMEROUS TIMES. THERE ARE NO PARTS AVAILABLE. THEY HAVE CALLED DEALERS AND I AM ON A WAITING LIST AT A JEEP DEALER FOR OVER TWO MONTHS. I BELIEVE THEY SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO PROVIDE ME A RENTAL CAR UNTIL PARTS ARE AVAILABLE AS THIS IS A UNSAFE VEHICLE TO DRIVE.

WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT A T-INTERSECTION, FROM A FULL STOP, ACROSS ON-COMING TRAFFIC PASSING LEFT TO RIGHT ON A TWO-LANE ROAD, I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR. JEEP BEGAN ROLLING FORWARD INTO THE INTERSECTION WHEN ANTI-LOCK BRAKES INITIATED WITHOUT ANY DEPRESSION OF BRAKE PEDAL, SLOWING ACCELERATION TO AN IDLE COAST. I DEPRESSED ACCELERATOR TO FLOOR, BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT RESPOND AND CONTINUED TO COAST THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. WE COULD FEEL THE ABS WEAKLY GRABBING AND LETTING GO, AND THERE WAS A GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT WHEELS. THE CAUTION TONE SOUNDED AND THE JEEP DISPLAYED AN ABS CAUTION LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL CAUTION LIGHT. WE COASTED ACROSS THE INTERSECTION AND PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, VERY NARROWLY AVOIDING A SIDE-IMPACT COLLISION WITH ON-COMING TRAFFIC FROM OUR LEFT AND A REAR-IMPACT COLLISION WITH TRAFFIC COMING FROM OUR REAR. OBDII SCANNER SHOWS REAR ABS SPEED SENSOR BAD. INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS MANY SAME OR SIMILAR INCIDENTS WITH JEEPS AT APPROXIMATELY 40,000-50,000 MILES. JEEP HAS APPROXIMATELY 43,000 MILES.

I WAS DRIVING HOME, SAW SMOKE AND A FLAME COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD AFTER TURNING ONTO THE RURAL ROAD I LIVE ON. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN THIS WAS NOTICED. I PULLED OVER AND GOT MY CHILDREN OUT OF THE CAR. AS SOON AS THE CHILDREN WERE SAFELY OUT OF THE VEHICLE, I NOTICED THAT ALL DOORS HAD LOCKED. SHORTLY AFTER GETTING MY CHILDREN OUT, THE VEHICLE WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES. FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS NOTIFIED AND ON SCENE SOON AFTER AND A POLICE REPORT WAS ALSO FILED. UNSURE AS TO REASONING OF WHY THE VEHICLE STARTED FIRE. HAVE NEVER HAD ANY ISSUES OR ENGINE WARNING LIGHTS DISPLAY DURING OWNERSHIP. BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE NEW. NO MODIFICATIONS OR ADD-ONS OR OTHER SERVICE WORK BESIDES THE REGULAR MAINTENANCE OF THE VEHICLE. 2016 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SAHARA. ROUGHLY 65,000 - 70,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME.

I WAS DRIVING HOME, SAW SMOKE AND A FLAME COMING FROM UNDER THE HOOD AFTER TURNING ONTO THE RURAL ROAD I LIVE ON. THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION WHEN THIS WAS NOTICED.

I RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTICE AND THE COURTESY CALLS HOWEVER I'VE HAD MY APPT CANCELLED BY THE DEALER BECAUSE THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PARTS. THIS IS GOING ON FOR 3 MONTHS. THE DEALERS NEAR ME DO NOT HAVE THESE PARTS AND HAVE PLACED US ON A 'LIST'. IN THE MEAN TIME WE NEED TO DRIVE WITH A VEHICLE THAT CAN CAUSE US INJURY OR DEATH BECAUSE CHRYSLER CANNOT MAKE THESE PARTS QUICK ENOUGH OR SEND ENOUGH TO COVER THE AMOUNT OF VEHICLES WITH THE PROBLEM.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE DEALERSHIP APPROX. FOUR TIMES, BECAUSE THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, FOLLOWED BY THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT. THEY SAID THAT THE CABLE CONNECTION GETS LOOSE AND THEY SOLDERED IT. THIS STARTED ABOUT 20000 MILES AND IS NOW AT 57778 MILES. THIS LAST TIME ON 4-24-2019 THEY SAID THAT IT HAS STORED CODES FOR THE CAM SENSORS ON BOTH BANKS AND TORQUE REQUEST DENIED SIGNAL AND TORQUE MANAGEMENT SIGNAL PERFORMANCE. P2638, C121C, P0344, P0369. THEY SAID THAT IT HAS PCM UPDATE AND THAT THEY PERFORMED THE PCM UPDATE AGAIN AND CLEARED CODES TO SEE IF THEY WOULD COME BACK. VEHICLE DRIVEN 30 MILES AND AND ONE LARGE BUMP IN THE ROAD AND THE LIGHTS TURNED ON AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS WHILE GOING DOWN DIRT ROADS. THEY ALSO TOLD ME THE FIRST TIME THAT IT WAS TAKEN IN THAT THE CABLE IS TO SHORT AND CAUSES STRESS AND STRETCHES, CAUSING IT TO COME LOOSE. THIS TIME THEY SAID IF THE LIGHTS CAME BACK ON THAT THEY WOULD HAVE TO HAVE THE VEHICLE BACK TO DO MORE EXTENSIVE TESTS AND POSSIBLE REPLACE THE SENSORS AT MY EXPENSE. THIS SEEMS TO BE A REOCCURRING PROBLEM THAT ALWAYS COMES BACK. THEY ALSO STATED THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM ON ALL WRANGLERS. THIS SEEMS TO BE A MANUFACTURES DEFECT AND NEEDS TO RECALLED AND FIXED.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY THE FRONT END STARTED TO SHAKE REALLY BAD, ALSO KNOWN AS THE DEATH WOBBLE. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE ON THE HIGHWAY AND ONCE ON A MAIN ROAD SINCE I HAVE GOTTEN THE JEEP 1.5 YEARS AGO. WHEN I MAKE TURNS IT WILL OCCASIONALLY SEEM LIKE THE STEERING STICKS A LITTLE THEN JERKS SLIGHTLY IN THE DIRECTION I TURNED THE WHEEL.

THE SPEED SENSOR FOR THE FRONT BRAKES ON MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER FAILED AND LED TO COSTLY REPAIRS. THE BRAKES LOCKED UP SO BAD THEY STALLED THE JEEP WHEN I LET OUT THE CLUTCH. THE JEEP LITERALLY SLAMMED ON IT'S OWN BRAKES IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC WITHOUT ME HAVING APPLIED THE BRAKES. THE BRAKE LIGHTS OF COURSE DID NOT COME ON AND I NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT. THE REPAIR COST $1200. THE JEEP DEALER TOLD ME "THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM".

AFTER STOPPING AT A LIGHT, THE LEFT REAR TIRE SIDEWALL EXPLODED FOR UNKNOWN REASON. TIRE COMPLETELY DEFLATED IN LESS THAN 15SEC. THE TIRE DID NOT CONTACT A CURB AND WAS NOT PUNCTURED BY A FOREIGN OBJECT.

HOOD LATCH FAILURE - TRAVELING ON A 2 LANE HIGHWAY AT POSTED SPEEDS OF 75 MPH, AS AN 18 WHEELER APPROACHED/PASSED AND THE RUSH OF WIND "HIT" THE VEHICLE, BOTH EXTERIOR RUBBER HOOD LATCHES AS WELL AS THE INTERNAL METAL HOOD LATCH FAILED, CAUSING THE HOOD TO FLY UP, SLAMMING AGAINST THE WINDSHIELD, SHATTERING IT AND BENDING THE HOOD OVER THE TOP FRAME OF THE WINDSHIELD, AND THE HOOD DID NOT FALL BACK DOWN. THANKFULLY THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO CONTROL AND SLOW DOWN THE VEHICLE AND GET SAFELY OFF THE ROAD, THEN HAD TO CLIMB UP TO PULL THE HOOD OFF OF THE TOP FRAME OF WINDSHIELD FRAME. THE FORCE OF THIS WAS SO GREAT IT COMPLETELY KNOCKED THE REAR VIEW MIRROR OFF OF THE WINDSHIELD.

AS I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT, FOR NO REASON AT ALL THE REAR WINDOW EXPLODED AND SHATTERED IN PIECES. DEALERSIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE JEEP WOULD NOT HELP NOR WOULD JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE AT 800-847-9753 AS A MATTER OF FACT THEY WERE DEFENSIVE AND RUDE.

WHEN STARTING FROM A STOP THE TRANSMISSION POPS OUT OF 1ST GEAR.

DURING A ROLLOVER CRASH WHICH INITIATED AT 40 MILES PER HOUR, THE FRONTAL AIRBAGS FAILED TO DEPLOY. THE VECHICLE ROLLED AND AN ADEQUATE AMOUNT OF FORCE TO DEPLOY THE AIR BAGS SHOULD HAVE BEEN TRIGGERED. AS A RESULT THE OOCCUPANTS EXPERIENCE EXTENSIVE INJURIES CONSISTENT WITH SUDDEN DECELERATION.

TAKATA RECALL: TOOK MY JEEP IN FOR RECALL REPAIR & TOLD BY SERVICE DEALER (REDLANDS, CA) THAT CHRYSLER IS NOT SENDING THE PARTS FOR RECALL TO BE COMPLETED. THEY ARE TO CONTACT ME ONCE THE PARTS ARE IN.

ON COLD DAYS AFTER THE JEEP HAS BEEN SITTING OVERNIGHT, THE ENGINE WILL STALL WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE WHEN THE BRAKE PEDAL IS FIRMLY PRESSED. THIS HAPPENS WHEN THE JEEP IS STARTED AND IT MAKES NO DIFFERENCE IF THE CAR IS RUNNING FOR 30 SECONDS BEFORE IT IS SHIFTED OR RUNNING FOR 3 MINUTES, THE ENGINE WILL STALL WHEN SHIFTING INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE. IF THE BRAKE IS NOT FIRMLY PRESSED THE ENGINE WON'T STALL WHEN THE TRANSMISSION IS SHIFTED INTO DRIVE OR REVERSE. THIS CAUSES THE JEEP WILL LURCH FORWARD, FOR DRIVE, OR BACKWARD, FOR REVERSE,

WHEN STARTING MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED UP, FIRST START IN THE DAY, OR MORNING.START VEHICLE UP, LET WARM UP FOR AT LEAST 1 MINUTE, PUT FOOT ON BRAKE PUT GEAR SHIFTER IN REVERSE, TO BACK OUT OF DRIVEWAY, GO TO RELEASE BRAKE, AND VEHICLE STALLS OUT.THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES, ABOUT ONCE OR TWICE A WEEK,TOOK TO DEALER AND THEY SAID CAN'T FIND NO CODES..I'VE BEEN ON A JEEP FORUM FOR A FEW WEEKS,AND EVERYONE ON THE SITE SAYS DEALERSHIP HAS FOUND THE PROBLEM AND FIXED, WHAT WOULD BE THE TORQUE CONVERTER, SEEM TO BE LOTS OF 2016 JEEPS OUT IN THE WORLD, HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. ..

RADIO OVER HEATING - FAN NOT SPINNING. RADIO WILL NOT WORK MORE THEN 45 SECONDS, MAKES A POPPING NOISE

THERE IS ALREADY A RECALL ON THE DRIVER SIDE AIR BAG POSTED ON 1/9/2019 WHICH MY DEALERSHIP HAS NOT YET FIXED AS OF 1/24/19. THERE IS ANOTHER ISSUE WITH A "COLD START" PUT INTO REVERSE AND THUS WHEN DONE IT IS STALLING. NO CODES ... NO WARING LIGHTS. MY 2016 HAS BEEN DOING THIS NOW FOR ALMOST 6 MONTHS.

MY DAUGHTER HAD HER RIGHT HAND PINKY FINGER TOP SEMI AMPTUATED WITH A TUFT FRACTURE WITH THE REAR PASSENGER DOOR OF THE STRIKER AND LATCH. THIS HAPPENED ON JAN 2019 AND WE PAID OVER 10K IN MEDICAL BILLS AND HER PINKY IS DISFIGURED. WE HAVEN'T REACH OUT TO LAWYERS BUT WE DO SEE A FLAW WITH THE STRIKER AND DOOR SETUP WITH THE 4 DOOR JEEPS THAT A REDESIGN OR COVER WOULD HELP. THE ISSUE IS ANY BOOSTER SEAT OR CHILD CAR SEAT PUTS A TODDLER OR KIDS HAND/FINGERS AT RISK WHICH FALL WITHIN 1-2 INCHES FROM THE BRACKET OF THE DOOR OF THE ARM REST OF MOST MAJOR BRAND SEATS. THIS SITS LEVEL TO THE STRIKER AND LATCH. THE PROXIMITY OF THE SEATBELT AND THE LEVEL AT THE DOOR STRIKER IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR LITTLE ONES SITTING IN BACK. THERE IS NO GUARD OR BARRIER TO PREVENT FROM TINY FINGER BEING CAUGHT IN THE STACK AND BEING STRUCK BY THE DOOR OR STRIKER. FROM THE INSIDE, WITH THE DOOR CLOSED, YOU CAN CLEARLY SEE THE REAR DOOR STRIKER AND LATCH. NOT ONLY FINGERS BUT HAIR TOO IS A PROBLEM. THIS IS CONCERNING TO US EVERY TIME WE PUT OUR LITTLE ONES IN THE BACK. IF NEED BE I CAN SEND A VIDEO OF IT AND REPLICATE THE RISK. I DID CONTACT A NEWS AGENCY BUT WAITING TO HEAR FROM THEM.*DT*JB*DT*JS*DT*JB

THE JEEP WRANGLER HAS NO LOCKING HOOD LATCH, INSTEAD ONLY LATCHES ON THE OUTSIDE THAT USE A RUBBER PIECE TO SECURE IT. ME ALONG WITH 1000'S HAVE HAD TO REPLACE THE LATCHES DUE TO STRETCHING THAT CAUSES HOOD FLUTTER, RESULTING IN HORRIBLE GAS MILEAGE AND SOME IT HAS EVEN DAMAGED THE HOOD IF NOT TAKEN CARE OF IMMEDIATELY. LUCKILY I REPLACED MY LATCHES BUT NOT AFTER I HAD TO PAY FOR NEW LATCHES BECAUSE OF JEEPS DEFECT

MY ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON AND OFF PLUS THE HILL DESCENT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING RANDOMLY THEN THE DESCENT CONTROL STARTS. I ALSO HAVE HAD THE BRAKES START SURGING ON AND OFF AND THE ENGINE WANT TO CUT OFF OR STOP FUEL. THEN THE LIGHTS GO OFF NO CODES TO CHECK THEN AND EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT. THE FUEL CUTTING OFF AND THE BRAKES SURGING WAS FROM A STOP ON A SIDE STREET

I AWOKE THIS MORNING TO FIND MY VEHICLE RUNNING INSIDE OUR PARKED GARAGE. THE REMOTE START SOMEHOW HAD TRIGGERED UNINTENTIONALLY.

I HAVE AN FRONT AND REAR ENGINE LEAKING .

TAMARA RECALL. I WAS HIT BY A DRUNK DRIVER AT HIGHWAY SPEED HERE IN TEXAS ON 12/7/2018. AIR BAGS DIDN'T DEPLOY IN MY 2016 JEEP JKU. ALL AIR BAGS DEPLOYED IN THE DRUNK DRIVERS VEHICLE. SHE WALKED AWAY AND I WAS TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL. IF MY AIRBAGS HAD DEPLOYED FROM SUCH A HARD IMPACT I MIGHT HAVE WALKED AWAY LIKE THE DRUNK DRIVER. SO MUCH FOR HAVING AIRBAGS IF THEY DON'T WORK. BOTH VEHICLES HAD TO BE TOWED AWAY FROM THE SCENE DUE TO EXTENT OF DAMAGES. *DT*JB

THE BACK SEAT WHEN IN THE UP POSITION FLOPS BACK AND FORTH WITH NO WAY TO LOCK IN IT IN. WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STOPPED FROM HIGH SPEEDS THE BACK SEAT SPRINGS FORWARD HITTING BOTH FRONT SEATS VERY HARD WHICH RESULTS IN THE DRIVER AND THE PASSENGERS BEING PUSHED HARD INTO THE DASHBOARD. THE SEAT ALSO WILL UNFOLD IN THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE CRUSHING ANYTHING IN THE BACK INCLUDING MY DOG WHO WAS INJURED WHILE RIDING IN THE BACK.

LEAKING TO THE DRIVER SIDE FLOOR PANEL. THE LEAK IS SO BAD I'M WORRIED ABOUT ELECTRICAL ISSUES. IT WAS A LEGIT PUDDLE OF WATER. I'M ALSO WORRIED ABOUT ABOUT BEING ELECTROCUTED,

ENGINE STALLS WHEN PUT IN FORWARD OR REVERSE ONE OR TWO TIMES IN THE MORNING

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE 40 WESTBOUND OUT OF MEMPHIS, I FOUND THE WINDS WERE GUSTY BLOWING FROM THE NORTHWEST HITTING ME THE RIGHT FRONT. SUDDENLY I WAS OVERTAKEN BY A LARGE TRACTOR TRAILER AND MY HOOD STARTED FLUTTERING FOR A FEW SECONDS THEN STOPPED. THEN IT HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES, EVEN WITH NO TRUCK PASSING, JUST A GUST OF WIND. I STOPPED TO MAKE SURE THAT THE RUBBER LATCHES WERE SECURE AND THEY WERE, NOTHING WAS LOOSE AND I COULD NOT PHYSICALLY MOVE THE HOOD WHILE IT WAS STILL LATCHED. THIS BEHAVIOR HAS REPEATED ON OTHER OCCASIONS INVOLVING WIND AND HIGHWAY SPEEDS OF APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH. I'M SURE WIND WAS CAUGHT UNDER THE HOOD AND THE PRESSURE WAS FORCING THE HOOD TO FLUTTER. THE RUBBER LATCHES DID NOT FULLY SECURE THE HOOD TO THE VEHICLE ENOUGH TO PREVENT THE FLUTTERING.

DEALER REFUSES TO MAKE RECALL REPAIRS FREE OF CHARGE, WANT US TO PAY HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO REMOVE AND REINSTALL WENCH. TRIED LAST SUMMER AS WELL SAME RESULT.

JEEP DEATH WOBBLE - WHILST TAKING MY SON TO SCHOOL I WAS TRAVELING AT APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, I STUCK A SMALL POTHOLE WITH MY RIGHT FRONT TIRE. THE VEHICLE FRONT END BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AS THE STEERING WHEEL OSCILLATED ABOUT 6 INCHES BACK AND FORTH. IT WAS VERY DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND NEARLY COLLIDED WITH CENTER MEDIAN AND VEHICLES TO MY RIGHT. SLOWING DOWN TO ABOUT 5 MPH CAUSED THE WOBBLE TO SUBSIDE. THIS WAS AN EXTREMELY SCARY EVENT AND COULD HAVE CAUSED INJURY/DEATH OF BOTH OF US HAD I LOST CONTROL. A DASHCAM VIDEO OF THE INCIDENT CAN BE PROVIDED IF NEEDED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE THE DRIVER WAS AT A COMPLETE STOP AT A RED LIGHT, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS ENGAGED. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE REAR ENDED A DUMP TRUCK. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME. THERE WERE NO INJURIES. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE MANUFACTURER'S ENGINEER PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC AT AN UNKNOWN DEALER AND WAS UNABLE TO LOCATE A FAILURE CODE; HOWEVER, THERE WAS AN ABNORMAL READING IN THE RADIO FREQUENCY. THE ENGINEER CONCLUDED THAT THE ACCELERATION FAILURE WAS NOT CAUSED BY A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,209.

MY ACCELERATOR WAS STUCK IN ACCELERATION MODE ONCE WHEN PASSING A CAR AND TODAY WHEN ACCELERATING TO MERGE ONTO THE FREEWAY AND MY CRUISE WAS NOT IN NOR WAS MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 19V018000 (AIR BAGS). THE CONTACT CALLED KOONS TYSONS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (2050 CHAIN BRIDGE RD, VIENNA, VA 22182, 703-790-0900) TO HAVE THE VEHICLE SERVICED; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART WERE NOT AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT REACHED OUT TO ANOTHER DEALER(FARRISH CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM, 9610 FAIRFAX BLVD, FAIRFAX, VA 22031, 703-273-0200) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THEY ALSO DID NOT HAVE PARTS AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT INFORMED THE MANUFACTURER OF THE RECALL AND THEY PROVIDE THE SAME INFORMATION AS THE DEALERS. NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

VEHICLE NOTIFIED IT HAD A FAULT IN THE ABS/ESC SYSTEM VIA THE YELLOW WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATING ON THE DASH. OCCURRED AFTER STARTING THE CAR AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT. VEHICLE DROVE NORMALLY AT FIRST AND ASSUMED THIS INDICATED THE SYSTEMS HAD A FAULT AND WERE THUS DISABLED. HOWEVER, VEHICLE STARTED TO LOSE POWER, STUMBLE, AND NOT ACCELERATE WHEN MOVING FROM DEAD STOP. INCLUDING STOP LIGHTS, STOP SIGNS, CROSSING DIVIDED HIGHWAYS AND INTERSECTIONS--TURNING AND STRAIGHT TRAVEL. PAVEMENT CONDITIONS WERE DRY/LEVEL, NO WHEEL SPIN OCCURRED. 3 OCCASIONS OVER 2 DAYS RESULTED IN NEAR ACCIDENTS. ONCE AFTER TURNING RIGHT FROM A STOP SIGN, ACCELERATING THROUGH FIRST GEAR AND REAR BRAKES BEGIN TO CYCLE WHILE POWER IS CUT FROM ENGINE. CAR BEHIND HAD TO SWERVE AROUND SO AS NOT TO COLLIDE. NO WARNING OR INDICATION THAT THIS WOULD HAPPEN. NEXT EVENT WAS CROSSING 2 LANE DIVIDED HIGHWAY FROM CENTER TURN LANE. AGAIN SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED LOSS OF POWER AND BRAKING AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED TO REAR WHEELS. LESSER EVENTS HAVE OCCURRED AS WELL. VEHICLE THINKS IT NEEDS TO ENGAGE THE ESC SYSTEM. I ARGUE THAT THE ESC SYSTEM SHOULD GO INACTIVE WHEN A FAULT IS DETECTED, NOT CUT POWER AND AUTO APPLY BRAKES DURING NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THIS IS A SOFTWARE PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE UPDATED (QUALITY OF THE COMPONENTS NOT WITHSTANDING). THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME AS THE CAR IS UN-DRIVEABLE, EVEN TO DEALER FOR REPAIR. MOREOVER, EVEN AFTER REPAIR THE FAULT STILL "LIVES" WITHIN THE CAR SHOULD IT HAVE A SIMILAR COMPONENT FAIL IN THE SYSTEM. CONTACTED DEALER TO ARRANGE REPAIR, VEHICLE HAS 40,600 MILES (NEVER OFF ROAD). DEALER STATED IT IS LIKELY A REAR WHEEL SPEED SENSOR, COMMON FAILURE, NOT UNDER WARRANTY, AND CONFIRMED THAT THIS WAS COMMON BEHAVIOR FOR THIS TYPE FAILURE. CONTACTED FCA ON ISSUE AND LOGGED CASE, CLAIM THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS, COULD NOT EXPLAIN.

2 X NOW WHILE DRIVING MY GAS PEDAL EXCELLERATED AFTER I TOOK MY FOOT OFF OF THE PEDAL AND WOULD NOT STOP UNTIL I PULLED THE PEDAL UP WITH MY FOOT. FIRST TIME I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY AT ABOUT 65 MPH. THE SECOND TIME ON A STREET AT ABOUT 25 MPH.
