2020 Jeep Wrangler Complaint Log

This started in May. The rear locker light came on by it self while driving, and at one point, service locker light was also lit up. I wanted to make the appointment but the light went out so I continued driving. In June, It came back on so I made an appointment with the dealer who was not able to get me in. The dealer kept the car for almost 2 weeks, changed a part and sent me home. As I was driving home from the dealership, the light came back on. If the axle is locked at a high speed(which is for off road, low speed only) this could potentially damage the rear axle differential and have catastrophic failure, which could lead to a crash. This issue is occuring at random.

On 4 occassions two while being towed behind our RV the Jeep started jumping violently. Looked on the camera and felt like we were driving over big boulders but there were none. Thankfully we were going slow enough to stop without having an accident. On all four times it did not come back when we were going again. We are terrified of driving it and more so of towing it. Dealer found nothing wrong... We don't understand.

THE NEUTRAL AUTOMATIC START/OFF SWITCH WAS ACTIVATED AS I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. VEHICLE SUDDENLY TURNED OFF AND JERKED AS I WAS PROCEEDING TO GO ON A GREEN LIGHT AND VEHICLE DID NOT WANT TO TURN BACK ON UNTIL 20 MIN LATER.

SUN VISOR ATTACH PIVOT POINT BROKE. PASSENGER SIDE IN OCTOBER AND THE DRIVERS SIDE 0N 03/29/2021. THIS IS SOMETHING THAT WILL HAPPEN OVER AND OVER AGAIN. VERY BAD DESIGN. IT HAPPENED WHEN I WAS DRIVING INTO THE SUN AND I LOWERED MY VISOR AND THEN THE PLASTIC SHAFT BROKE.

The infotainment screen will freeze when the backup camera is active. May lead to an accident since the screen may give impression you are clear but it is actually frozen.

RIGHT HAND LATCH FOR SOFT TOP RELEASES ONCE YOU PASS A SEMI TRUCK WHEN YOU ARE DOING OVER 70MPH OR HIT A BUMP IN THE ROAD TRAVELING INTO THE WIND.

I HAVE TAKEN MY JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON JLU INTO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES FOR LOOSE STEERING AT 7,507 MILES. THE TSB PART NUMBER 08-074-20 WAS ORDERED AND TOOK OVER A MONTH TO COME IN. ONCE COMPLETED THE STEERING DID FEEL BETTER FOR 2,000 MILES AND THEN BECAME VERY LOOSE AGAIN. IT'S VERY UNCOMFORTABLE TO DRIVE SPEEDS OVER 45MPH. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT AND WAS TOLD THERES NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE AND I DIDN'T KNOW HOW TO DRIVE A JEEP WRANGLER. I TOLD THEM THAT IT WAS THE STEERING WAS FINE FOR 7,000 MILES WITH ZERO COMPLAINTS AND THIS WAS NOW MY THIRD WRANGLER I'VE OWED.

Steering has become increasingly problematic. Excessive play in the steering wheel and feels dangerous to drive in some conditions.

BRAND NEW JLUR FIRST ROAD TRIP, GOT LESS THEN 500 MILES OUT OF CO INTO HAYS,KS. VEHICLES HAS LEES THEN 5000 MILES, WAS PASSING A VEHICLE AT 68 MPH. LOST ALL FORWARD GEARS, GOT A CODE FOR VALVE BODY SILENOID HIGH VOLTAGE. JEEPCARES DID NOTHING FOR A TOW. IT'S A LITTLE SAD YOU PAY $55,000+ FOR A VEHICLE, JUST TO HAVE A VEHICLE SIT IN THE SHOP WITH NO LOANER. TRANSMISSION IS ON A 2 MONTH BACK ORDER. WORD OF ADVICE STAY AWAY FROM ANY THE NEW JL/JT MODEL JEEPS.

Death wobbles on a stock Jeep nothing at all has been changed on this vehicle. I am unable to take this vehicle anywhere without experiencing death wobbles. Dealership will be replacing the stabilizer, but many Jeep owners are telling me that this is not a fix and more of a band aid for the problem. I am seeing this same complaint over and again in Jeep Facebook groups. The bought this vehicle brand new and do not feel safe. This is extremely concerning on the freeway as well. This happens at around 45 mph 60mph and higher, I have to slow down to a complete stop for it to stop.

THE WINDSHIELD DEFROSTER DOESN'T REACH THE OUTER PORTIONS OF THE WINDSHIELD WHICH RESULTS IN DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS IN COLD WEATHER. I HAVE TO TURN THE HEAT ALL THE WAY ON HIGH AND THE FAN ALL THE WAY UP TO THE POINT WHERE IT IS HURTING MY EYES AND IT STILL DOESN'T PREVENT ICE ON THE LEFT AND RIGHT SIDES. I HAVE TO LEAN TO THE RIGHT TO SEE THROUGH MY WINDSHIELD. THIS HAPPENS WHILE SITTING STILL, DRIVING, ETC. IT HAPPENS ANYTIME THE WEATHER IS BELOW FREEZING AND THERE ARE WET CONDITIONS

*Radio, navigation / all sound loss (intermittently) *Radio freezes as well as display (intermittently) *Blind spot warning - beeps at inappropriate times for example when 2 lanes turn left it beeps making you think you are going to hit someone *Back-up Camera - freezes on screen and/or turns black *climate control - does not remain on the setting you put it on *bluetooth - randomly begins to play something when it should not *vehicle is turned off, door closed and locked, but radio will remain on and continue to play in vehicle. All of these things cause immense distraction and pose great danger to a driver as well as other drivers on the road. This vehicle had a little over 4,000 miles on it when I purchased it. Purchased dec 2020 and Uconnect replaced by dealer early 2021. The same issues are occurring with the replacement system. Took jeep in today, on 10/4/2021 and they say they have ordered another Uconnect system however, I doubt it will fix these issues. Very disappointed in this vehicle for it to be such an expensive purchase.

The driver and passenger side sunvisors have both failed. The piece that holds the visor in place is apparently plastic and breaks easily, causing the visor to malfunction. This sounds minor, but not in winter when the sun is low on the horizon and blinding to the driver. The first visor I replaced was in 2021 (on a 2020 jeep). You have to replace the entire assembly (not just the part). Both sides have failed repeatedly. After driving around for months with the visors bungee corded up, to keep them from hanging and flopping around, I have now had my mechanic install after market brackets. This is a well known problem among mechanics that work on newer Jeeps. This may sound minor, but I do feel its an accident waiting to happen when driving towards oncoming traffic when the sun is low. Note that this jeep is primarily driven on paved roads - it is not being driven repeatedly off road in crazy conditions.

WHILE DRIVING ON HWY 65 MPH, I NOTICED MY STEERING GETTING HARD TO CONTROL, I THEN REALIZED THAT IT WAS LOCKED IN THE STRAIGHT FORWARD POSITION, AFTER A FEW SECONDS OF FORCEFULLY TRYING TO TURN THE WHEEL IT FINALLY BROKE FREE, I EXITED THE HWY AND WENT STRAIGHT TO THE HOUSE. THIS IS THE 3RD TIME. QUIT SCARRY IN TRAFFIC I MUST SAY. IT DOES DRIVE NORMAL NOW, BUT I DON'T KNOW IF IT WILL HAPPEN AGAIN.

VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY WHEN DRIVEN AT SPEEDS OVER 50 MPH CAUSING LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. EACH INSTANCE REQUIRES IMMEDIATE STOPPAGE OF VEHICLE AND THE NEED TO SEEK EMERGENCY ROAD SIDE AREA TO PULL OVER ONTO FOR SAFETY. THIS FRIGHTENING EFFECT OCCURS INTERMITTENTLY AND WITHOUT WARNING.

MY 2020 JEEP WRANGLER JLUR HAS A DEAD SPOT IN THE STEERING WHEEL THAT IS ABOUT 1.5 TO 2 INCHES OF STEERING TURN WITH NO RESPONSE. IT IS VERY HARD TO KEEP IT FROM OVER STEERING ESPECIALLY AT SPEEDS MORE THAN 50 MPH. I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY MAKE MICRO-ADJUSTMENTS TO KEEP IT IN MY LANE. WHEN LARGE TRUCKS LIKE 18 WHEELERS PASS ME IT GETS VERY DICEY. I'VE GOTTEN SCARED TO DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY WITH MY JEEP NOW. THERE IS NO EXCUSE AT ALL FOR A VEHICLE TO DRIVE THIS POORLY. I PAID NEARLY $60K FOR THIS CAR AND IT ONLY HAS 5,000 MILES ON IT THUS FAR. THE PROBLEM STARTED AT ABOUT 2,700 MILES. I HAVEN'T EVEN HAD MY FIRST OIL CHANGE YET. I HAVE HEARD MANY OTHERS WITH JL'S HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. FCA NEEDS TO RECALL THE STEERING ON JL WRANGLERS BEFORE PEOPLE GET INJURED OR DIE FROM THIS STEERING ISSUE. IT'S NOT SAFE!!

WHILE THE JEEP HAS DEFROST VENTS ACROSS THE WHOLE WINDSHIELD, IT ONLY BLOWS HOT AIR FROM THE CENTER, LEANING THE SIDES OF THE WINDSHIELD TO COLLECT SNOW AND ICE, EVEN WITH DEFROST ON ITS HIGHEST SETTING.

FRONT WINDSHIELD FAILS TO DEFROST DURING COLD DRIVING CONDITIONS, ALLOWING SNOW/ICE TO BUILD UP, DIRECTLY IMPACTING THE DRIVER'S ABILITY TO SEE CLEARLY OUT THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, BUT HAS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN PARKED WAITING TO TRY AND DEFROST SO I COULD SEE CLEARLY OUT OF THE FRONT WINDSHIELD. DEFROSTER, ON HIGH FULL HEAT DOES NOT REACH THE LEFT AND RIGHT PORTIONS OF THE WINDSHIELD.

MY JEEP IS ALL OVER THE ROAD, I CAN HARDLY KEEP IT BETWEEN THE LINES. IT ZIGS, IT ZAGS, THE STEERING WHEEL HAS A 30 DEGREE DEAD SPOT. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALER AND THEY CLAIMED THEY REPLACED MY STEERING BOX. THAT DID NOTHING TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS JEEP IS DANGEROUS!

THE JEEP WANDERS SO I HAVE TO CONSTANTLY CORRECT STEERING ALSO IT PULLS TO THE RIGHT AND DARTS BACK AND FORTH WEN IM PASSING OTHER CARS OR ON WINDY DAYS I DON'T FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT MY WIFE WONT DRIVE IT AT ALL I EVEN GOT A FOR WEEL ALIGNMENT IT DIDN'T HELP THE PROBLEM THEY NEED TO FIX THIS PROBLEM

WHEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE ON THE HIGHWAY, THE VEHICLE WANDERS EXCESSIVELY SIDE TO SIDE OFTEN EXCEEDING LANE LINES. IT IS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TO MAINTAIN LANE OF TRAVEL AT ANY SPEED OVER 30 MPH. THERE ARE INCHES OF PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL ROTATION. WHEN BRAKING HARD THE VEHICLE PULLS HARD TO ONE DIRECTION EITHER LEFT OR RIGHT. THE VEHICLE IS A BRAND NEW 2020 WITH LESS THAN 5,000 MILES. TOOK THE VEHICLE IN TO HAVE IT CHECKED. SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAID THEY ORDERED A NEW STEERING GEARBOX.

EXCESSIVE PLAY IN STEERING WHEEL WHICH RESULTS IN CONSTANT STEERING CORRECTION TO STAY IN THE LANE. THERE IS AN UNRESPONSIVE DEAD ZONE OF SEVERAL INCHES ALLOWING THE JEEP TO WANDER FROM LEFT TO RIGHT. THIS ISSUE OCCURS AT LOW AND HIGH SPEEDS BOTH ON HIGHWAYS AND SECONDARY ROADS MAKING THE JEEP WRANGLER DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. WHILE FOLLOWING BEHIND THE JEEP WRANGLER ON A HIGHWAY, IT APPEARS AS IF THE DRIVER IS EITHER DISTRACTED OR INTOXICATED AS THE JEEP WANDERS IN AND SOMETIMES OUT OF THE LANE MAKING IT A HAZARD.

AS I MOVED THE PASSENGER SEAT FORWARD TO ALLOW ACCESS TO THE BACKSEAT I HEARD PLASTIC BREAK. THE SEAT WILL NOT GO BACK IN IT'S UP RIGHT AND LOCKED POSITION. THE SEAT MOVES FREELY FORWARD WHEN BREAKING AND BACKWARDS WHEN ACCELERATING. THE VEHICLE IS UNDER WARRANTY AND I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME THEY HAVE TO ORDER THE SEAT BRACKET IN ORDER TO FIX IT. I CANNOT UTILIZE MY VEHICLE TO TRANSPORT ANYBODY BECAUSE OF IT BEING A SAFETY RISK TO ANY PASSENGER AS WELL AS MYSELF DO TO THE SEAT NOT BEING ABLE TO PERFORM ACCURATE SIDE AIRBAG PROTECTION.

I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE ON 30 OCTOBER 2020. I DROVE FOR 38 MILES TOTAL. ON NOVEMBER 1ST AT APPROXIMATELY 02|:30 A.M. THE VEHICLE CAUGHT AFTER BEING PARKED FOR MORE THAN 15 HOURS. TOTAL MILEAGE ON THE VEHICLE 131 MILES.

VERY LOOSE STEERING FROM FACTORY, WITH ORIGINAL AE STEERING BOX. HAD THE RECENT TSB DONE THAT REPLACED WITH AA (BLACK) VERSION OF BOX AND STEERING IS STILL LOOSE, A LOT OF FREEPLAY AND VEHICLE WANDERS AT SPEEDS ABOVE 40. STILL DANGEROUS.

The AutoPark sensors, ( Park Collision Warning), in my 2020 Jeep Wrangler randomly triggers and engages AutoPark. The false triggers randomly occur when the vehicle is in reverse. The condition occurs at very low speed after the brake is touched. The false triggers occur during daylight or night conditions. Once AutoPark is engaged the vehicle will not move. The engine must be turned off and sometimes the AutoPark switch must be turned off before the vehicle will move. There is usually no object within 15 feet of my vehicle to trigger the autopark sensors. I videotaped some of the occurrences using my cell phone. The Jeep service department is not able to diagnose the problem. In addition, the false triggers are not creating system log entries to prove the event occurred. Jeep service department will not use my videos as evidence the event happened. Jeep Service will not escalate the problem unless their service department can recreate the condition. My video is 200MB, exceeds your upload limits.

HAD IT FOR LESS THAN 2 WEEKS (WAS BRAND NEW, PURCHASED WITH ONLY 43 MILES) AND DECIDED TO TAKE IT ON A FALL ROAD TRIP. HALFWAY THROUGH OUR ROAD TRIP (ABOUT 100 MILES IN) ENGINE STARTED 'JUMPING' AND 'HEAVING' WHILE IN CRUISE CONTROL ON THE HIGHWAY AT 65 MP; THEN WOUDN'T ACCELERATE AT ALL, AND SPEED STARTED TO DECLINE. WAS VERY NEAR AN EXIT, SO WAS ABLE TO COAST IN TO A GAS STATION. ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL ERROR CODE + SERVICE ENGINE LIGHTS WERE LIT. ATTEMPTED TO TURN OFF AN ON SEVERAL TIMES, HOPING THIS WAS JUST SOME KIND OF GLITCH, BUT AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS IT WOUDN'T EVEN STAY STARTED. WHILE IN PARK, AFTER PRESSING "START" ENGINE JUST KEPT JUMPING THEN AUTOMATICALLY WOULD SHUT ITSELF OFF. OUR WHOLE FAMILY STRANDED HOURS AWAY FROM HOME. UNDER 500 MILES AND IT HAD TO BE TOWED IN TO THE NEAREST DEALERSHIP WHERE IT'S BEEN SITTING FOR ALMOST A WEEK NOW AND THEY STILL HAVE ABSOLUTELY NO IDEA HOW TO FIX IT. WAS TOLD THAT IT LIT UP WITH SO MANY ERROR CODES THEY HAVE TO GET A SPECIAL ENGINEER FROM MOPAR TO COME OUT' JUST IN SHOCK THAT WE'RE HAVING THIS ISSUE WITH A $65K VEHICLE. VERY UNSAFE.

STEERING IS SO LOOSE THAT AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE CONTINUED MOTION BACK AND FORTH ON THE STEERING WHEEL THAT IS REQUIRED TO ATTEMPT TO KEEP MY VEHICLE IN IT'S LANE CAUSES IT TO WOBBLE AND BECOME UNSTEADY ON THE ROADWAY. IT IS LOOSE ALL THE TIME BUT IS MOST DANGEROUSLY NOTICEABLE WHEN THE VEHICLE IS DRIVEN AT HIGHER RATES OF SPEED. THE DATE LISTED BELOW IS JUST ONE DATE THAT I SPECIFICALLY REMEMBER ALTHOUGH IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME.

DEAD SPOT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WHEEL, PULLS TO THE RIGHT, AND THERE IS A WOBBLE OR LOOSENESS TO THE STEERING ESPECIALLY IN RIGHT HAND TURNS AND AT LOWER SPEEDS

THIS IS A 2020 VEHICLE YOU CAN NOT DRIVE SAFELY ON THE HIGHWAY. THE PLAY IN THE STEERING WHEEL MAKES CONTROLLING THIS VEHICLE AT LOW SPEEDS CHALLENGING BUT AT SPEEDS ABOVE 55 MPH IT IS A HORROR, ESPECIALLY WHEN TRUCKS GO BY. THE DEALER SAYS IT IS A PROBLEM BUT NO FIX HAS BEEN ISSUED. ONCE SOMEONE IS KILLED MAYBE THEY WILL FIX THIS. IF I KNEW ABOUT THIS ISSUE I WOULD NEVER HAVE PURCHASED IT AS IT PUTS MY FAMILY AT RISK FROM AN ACCIDENT. PLEASE HELP WITH THIS BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED

THE FRONT WINDOW DEFROSTER ONLY BLOWS AIR ONTO THE WINDSHIELD IN MIDDLE AND MOST OF THE PASSENGER SIDE. I GET NO AIR FLOW TO DRIVER SIDE. I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER AND THEY CHECKED 3 OTHERS ON THEIR LOT AND THEY HAD THE SAME PROBLEM.

UNSAFE LOOSE STEERING IN THIS 2020 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT S WILLY'S EDITION.. THE WHEEL HAS A LARGE DEAD SPACE REQUIRING OVER CORRECTING TO MAINTAIN THE VEHICLE IN IT'S LANE. DUE TO THE DEAD SPACE I HAVE TO PERFORM A "SAWING MOTION" TO KEEP THE JEEP IN ITS LANE. THE EXCESS STEERING WHEEL MOTION IS AT LOW SPEEDS AS WELL AS HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE JEEP CAN VEER RIGHT OR LEFT DEPENDING ON THE ROAD. WHEN I HOLD THE WHEEL COMPLETELY STILL, THE TIRES CAN BE FELT MOVING RIGHT AND LEFT. MY 16 YEAR OLD SON ALMOST WRECKED THE JEEP THE FIRST DAY IN A 25 MPH NEIGHBORHOOD DUE TO THE OVERCORRECTING NEEDED TO STEER IT STRAIGHT.. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED BEFORE SOMEONE IS HURT OR KILLED. I WAS TOLD INITIALLY THIS WAS A "JEEP THING" BY SOMEONE AT THE DEALERSHIP. I DID TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE TECH WITHOUT DRIVING IT RIGHT AWAY SAID YOU NEED A NEW STEERING BOX. I PURCHASED THIS JEEP SEPT 23. THERE WAS A SERVICE BULLETIN THAT CAME OUT AUG 10 BY THE COMPANY # 08-074-20 FOR IMPROVED STEERING FEEL. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS. THERE IS A STEERING PROBLEM THAT WOULD NOT BE ACCEPTED BY ANY OTHER CAR. IT IS NOT A "JEEP THING".

THE VEHICLE DEVELOPS "DEATH WOBBLE" WHEN HITTING BUMPS WITHIN THE ROAD, TO THE POINT THAT ALL CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE IS LOST UNTIL SPEEDS ARE REDUCED TO BELOW 20 MPH. THE STEERING BECOMES EXTREMELY VIOLENT, PREVENTING ANY CORRECTIVE MEASURES FROM BEING POSSIBLE. EARLY TODAY, THE EVENT ALMOST CAUSED A THREE CAR ACCIDENT IN A RESIDENTIAL COMMUNITY. HIT A BUMP AROUND 40 MPH AND LOST ALL CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE.

I PURCHASED MY 2020 WRANGLER JL ON 08/24/2020. THIS JEEP'S STEERING WHEEL RESPONSIVENESS IS "LOOSE" AT SPEEDS OF 55+ MPH, I DO NOT FEEL IN CONTROL OF THE JEEP AT TIMES AND IT IS UNNERVING. THIS IS ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE ON A HIGHWAY BEND OR A NARROW ROAD PASSAGE, IT IS CHALLENGING TO MAINTAIN THE VEHICLE IN A CONSTANT TRAJECTORY. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY DID A WHEEL ALIGNMENT WHICH HELPED A LITTLE, BUT STILL PROBLEMATIC. THE STEERING WHEEL WANDERS AND IT IS AN EXHAUSTIVE EFFORT TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT.

THE DAY MY HUSBAND PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FOR ME, I DROVE DOWN TO MY HOUSE ON A HIGHWAY (SPEED LIMIT WAS 55 MPH), I NOTICED STEERING WHEEL STARTS WOBBLING AT A SPEED OF 50-55 MPH, IT WOBBLED MORE GOING AROUND THE CURB, IT REALLY SCARED ME SO I HAD TO STOP THE CAR AND ASK MY HUSBAND TO DRIVE AND SEE WHAT HIS OPINION ON THE LOOSE STEERING WHEEL. HE SAID HE FELT THE SAME WOBBLE AS I DID AND CALLED THE SALES PERSON TO HAVE THEIR SERVICE DEPARTMENT CHECK IT OUT. THIS VEHICLE IS DOING SAME THINGS THAT IT HAD DESCRIBED IN THE DEATH WOBBLE CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT. THIS IS BRAND NEW 2020 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON, THEIR TOP OF THE LINE JEEP. TWO DAYS LATER, MY CAR WAS IN THE SHOP, THEY CHECKED IT OUT AND SAID STEERING WHEEL WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO ORDER THE PART WHICH WAS NOT AVAILABLE UNTIL NOVEMBER AND GAVE ME A NUMBER TO CALL THE CHRYSLER PARTS DEPARTMENT FOR SPEEDY DELIVERY ON THE PART. THE CASE MANAGER SAID PARTS WILL NOT BE AVAILABLE UNTIL NOVEMBER NO MATTER WHO CALLED BECAUSE THEY HAVE A LOT OF PEOPLE WAITING ON THIS PART(A NEW STEERING GEAR). THE MANUFACTURER KNEW THAT THEY WERE PUTTING OUT VEHICLES WITH DEFECTIVE PARTS AND DEALER KNEW THAT THIS VEHICLE HAD THE BAD PARTS SINCE IT WAS IN THEIR TBS BUT THEY STILL SELLING THESE VEHICLES ON THEIR CAR LOT. SINCE THEN, THEY GOT THE NEW PART AND REPLACED IT BUT STILL HAD THE SAME WOBBLY STEERING WHEEL, VERY SCARY FEELING. I HAVE THE DETAILED NOTES ON WHAT HAS HAPPENED WITH THIS VEHICLE. MY HUSBAND PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE WITH 575 MILES ON IT.

I HAVE EXPERIENCED DEATH WOBBLE OVER 5 TIMES AND HAVE 3K MILES ON VEHICLE. I HAVE TAKEN TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED DRAG LINK AND TIE RODS JUST TO HAVE IT HAPPEN AGAIN. I HAD IT HAPPEN ON I-70 THROUGH A CONSTRUCTION ZONE WITH NO PLACE TO PULL OVER. I HAD TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSTATE TO TAKE CONTROL OF JEEP. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS AND FRIGHTENING AND I WANT TO GET THE WORD OUT. I AM NOT COMFORTABLE DRIVING A BRAND NEW VEHICLE, TOTALLY UNACCEPTABLE.

WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION THERE IS A NOTICEABLE AMOUNT OF PLAY IN THE STEERING. SO MUCH AS AN INCH OR MORE TO EITHER SIDE OF 12 O'CLOCK. IT IS NERVE WRACKING WHEN DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE STEERING WHEEL KEEPS SEE-SAWING BACK AND FORTH. I'VE HAD IT TO THE DEALER WHERE PURCHASED THREE TIMES FOR THIS PROBLEM. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN OUT REGARDING THE STEERING GEAR BOX. THE DEALER INSTALLED THE PARTS THAT NEEDED REPLACING. THIS DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THEY STATE THAT THIS IS NORMAL FOR THE JEEP WRANGLER. BELIEVING THAT IT IS NOT NORMAL I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALER. I RECEIVED THE SAME RESPONSE, IT CANNOT BE ADJUSTED OR CORRECTED IN ANY WAY. AGAIN THEY STATED THAT THIS IS NORMAL FOR THE WRANGLER. I HAVE REPAIR INVOICES, BUT DO NOT KNOW HOW TO UPLOAD THEM. FROM INQUIRING ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THE PROBLEM I SEE THAT THERE QUITE A FEW BLOGS THAT PEOPLE HAVE WRITTEN IN REGARDING THE SAME PROBLEM.

I PURCHASED A 2020 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON. DRIVING HOME FROM THE DEALERSHIP I NOTICED IT WANDERED RIGHT AND LEFT ON THE HIGHWAY. AFTER ARRIVING HOME I CHECKED THE AIR PRESSURE IN THE TIRES ALL SET AT 41PSI SPEC IS 36PSI. AFTER ADJUSTING THE AIR PRESSURE WE DROVE IT AGAIN IT WAS A LITTLE BETTER BUT STILL WANDERED BACK AND FORTH ALL THE TIME. I NOTED YOU COULD MOVE THE STEERING WHEEL BACK AND FORTH ABOUT AN INCH OR MORE WITHOUT THE FRONT WHEELS EVEN MOVING? THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE. CALLED THE DEALER FOR AN ALIGNMENT AND ASKED IF THIS JEEP HAD THE UPDATED GEAR BOX? IT DID NOT SO THEY DID THE GEARBOX. MADE NO DIFFERENCE STILL WANDERS ALL OVER THE ROAD. YOU REALLY HAVE TO PAY ATTENTION WHILE DRIVING THIS JEEP. NOT ACCEPTABLE FOR A 2020 VEHICLE.

I PURCHASED MY 2020 RUBICON LAST WEEK 09/01/2020. THIS JEEP'S STEERING WHEEL RESPONSIVENESS IS EXTREMELY "LOOSE". AT SPEEDS OF 55+ MPH I DO NOT FEEL IN CONTROL OF THE JEEP AT TIMES AND IT IS UNNERVING. THIS IS ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE ON A HIGHWAY BEND OR A NARROW ROAD PASSAGE. IT IS CHALLENGING TO MAINTAIN THE VEHICLE IN A CONSTANT TRAJECTORY. THE STEERING WHEEL WANDERS AND IT IS AN EXHAUSTIVE EFFORT TO KEEP IT STRAIGHT. (I HAVE PREVIOUSLY OWNED 2 WRANGLERS AND THIS WAS NEVER AN ISSUE OR EXPERIENCE. I AM A LOYAL JEEP OWNER, BUT I DO NOT FEEL SAFE.

STEERING WANDERING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. STEERING WHEEL FEELS LOOSER AND LOOSER IN COMPARISON TO WHEN I FIRST BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. AT ONLY 3K MILES THE STEERING SHOULD NOT FEEL THIS LOOSE.

NEAR HIGH SPEED CRASH SITUATION, TWICE, FOR FAULT THAT THE DEALERSHIP HAS CONFIRMED BUT DOES NOT HAVE A SOLUTION FOR! FIRST INCIDENT... HAD TO GENTLY SWERVE ON FREEWAY WHEN A CAR PULLED INTO MY LANE WITHOUT WARNING. ALMOST LOST CONTROL, BACK END FISHTAILED HORRIBLY, TURNED THE STEERING WHEEL BACK THE OTHER WAY TO ATTEMPT TO TAKE CONTROL AND MASSIVE OVERSTEER CAUSED THE CAR TO JUMP 2 LANES THE OTHER WAY. LUCKY NOT TO CRASH. DEALERSHIP TOOK VEHICLE IN A SAID THERE WAS A KNOWN FAULT THAT NEEDED ADDRESSING! THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN RECALLED, SO IF IT IS A KNOWN FAULT THAT IS FRIGHTENING. THE HAD TO GET A PART IN WHICH TOOK APPROX 10 DAYS. THEY ALSO MADE SOME CHANGES TO THE POWER STEERING. CAR RETURNED TO US. ON FIRST DRIVE ON SAME STRETCH OF FREEWAY (70 AND 75 MPH), WE WERE IN A SIMILAR SITUATION/INCIDENT. AGAIN IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN A BIT OF "NOTHING" SITUATION, WITH A LITTLE SWERVE AND THAT'S ALL. INSTEAD WE ONCE AGAIN LOST CONTROL AND SPENT APPROX 15 SECONDS GETTING UNDER CONTROL AND SECURELY IN ONE LANE. IT WENT BACK TO DEALERSHIP. THE HAD FOR 12 DAYS WITH ZERO UPDATE/CONTACT. THEN THEY TOLD ME A SPECIALIST HAD BEEN PULLED IN AND HE HAD DRIVEN IT AND CONFIRMED A SAFETY ISSUE AT HIGH SPEEDS. THE CAR WAS ORDERED THROUGH THIS DEALERSHIP WITH LARGE WHEELS AS PART OF THE PACKAGE/ORDER. THE SPECIALIST SWITCHED TO FACTORY WHEELS AND TESTED AGAIN - HE SAID IT WAS NOW OK, SO WHEELS ARE THE ISSUE. THE DEALERSHIP OFFERED ONE SOLUTION TO MAKE THE CAR SAFE AFTER THIS - PUT THE FACTORY WHEELS BACK ON. NO! IF WE COULD ONLY HAVE HAS FACTORY WHEELS WE WOULD NEVER HAVE PURCHASED A WRANGLER IN THE FIRST PLACE! IT'S LIKE BUYING A WHITE CAR AND THEN BEING TOLD IT HAS TO BE REPAINTED RED, WHEN ONE HATES RED CARS - NOT ACCEPTABLE. THE CAR HAS BEEN IN THE DEALERSHIP FOR MORE DAYS THAN IN OUR POSSESSION, AND WE CANNOT SAFELY DRIVE IT ON THE FREEWAY IN THE ORDERED FORM. SHOCKING

ON 8/3/2020 WITH 300 MILES BATTERY IS DEAD. ON 8/13/2020 TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND FOUND NOTHING. 8/13 ENGINE DIED AT A SIGNAL AND RADIO SHUTS DOWN. JEEP IS FINE FOR 9 DAYS WITHOUT ENGINE LIGHT ON. 8/24 ENGINE LIGHT RETURNS ON. 8/25 ENGINE DIES AT A SIGNAL,AND THE RADIO SHUTS DOWN. WHILE ON THE FREEWAY, BATTERY LIGHTS, ABS, AND TRACTION/STABILIZER LIGHTS COME ON. THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT, AND WAS HARD TO STEER. THE HEATER COMES ON VIA DEFROST VENTS BLASTING HOT AIR AND UNABLE TO TURN OFF. POWER ACCELERATION GOES OUT. VERY SCAREY AND DANGEROUS. ALL LIGHTS ARE FLASHING ON DASH PANEL AND THE CAR IS DIES. JEEP TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. ON 8/27 THE TECHNICIAN TRIED TO CHARGE BATTERIES FOR ONE AND HALF HOURS ON 1ST ATTEMPT WITH NO SUCCESS. TECHNICIAN SAID BATTERY SEVERELY DISCHARGED AND THEY COULD NOT RETRIEVE INFORMATION. ON 8/31 AFTER HOURS ON A CHARGE ON THE 2ND ATTEMPT, THE BATTERIES CHARGE AND TECHNICIAN CLEARED ALL CODES TECHNICIAN DROVE IT A COUPLE OF DAYS (MILEAGE IS NOW 670) AND BECAUSE NO CODES RETURNED "ON", SAYS THE JEEP IS FIXED. ON 9/3 WE PICK UP THE JEEP. THE NEXT DAY 9/4 NEW PANEL LIGHTS COME ON FOR THE PARKSENSE SYSTEM. THE DASH PANEL SAYS TO WIPE CLEAN. THEY ARE CLEAN. THE TURN ON/OFF BUTTON LIGHT CONTINUES TO BLINK. OPENED A CASE # 77098337 WITH JEEP CARE ON 8/31 AND HAVE HAD NO HELP AND SENT DETAILED DOCUMENTION AND VIDEOS OF THE PROBLEMS. THE CAUSE IS DEFINITELY ELECTRICAL WITH THE BATTERIES NOT BEING ABLE TO HOLD A CHARGE. WE ARE IN FEAR OF DRIVING THIS JEEP AND BEING STRANDED SOMEWHERE REMOTE AND HAVE WHAT HAPPENED TO US HAPPEN AGAIN ENDING IN AN INJURY ACCIDENT OR DEATH BECAUSE OF THE LOSS OF POWER TO STEERING AND ACCELERATION. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. WE THOUGHT THE JEEP WAS GOING TO CATCH FIRE BECAUSE OF THE HEAT COMING OUT OF THE VENTS. PLEASE HELP! I HAVE VIDEOS BUT CANNOT UPLOAD HERE SO TOOK SCREENSHOTS FROM THE VIDEOS.

VEHICLE WOBBLES OVER 70 MPH SPEED LIMIT IS 75. GETS WORSE OVER UN EVEN ROAD OF SPEED BUMP AT ANY SPEED. FEEL LIKE THE WHOLE JEEP IS GOING COME APART. ALSO WHILE DRIVING THE SCREEN JUST GLITCH EVERY 10-SECOND. IT GETS WORSE USING CARPLAY

Engine surges forward when coming to a stop (brakes applied) or when at a complete stop and the engine is in drive.this happened in Aug 2020 with 5000 miles on Odometer, and again in June 2022 with 26000 miles.

VEHICLE CHASSIS VIBRATION AT ROUGHLY 83 MPH AND 2100 RPM IN GEAR 7. VIBRATION SEEMS BE COMING FROM CENTER OF VEHICLES BASE NEAR GEAR SELECTOR. IT IS MORE NOTICEABLE UNDER LOAD. VIBRATION ECHOS THROUGH VEHICLE WITH A HARMONIC SOUND.

JUST BOUGHT THIS 2020 JEEP SAHARA JULY 2020 AND THE STEERING IS ALL OVER THE PLACE. YOU MUST FIGHT THIS JEEP TO DRIVE IT ANYWHERE , IF YOU TAKE YOU EYES OFF THE ROAD FOR A SECOND YOU COULD BE IN A DITCH. IT PULLS LEFT. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WITH 1000 MILES ON IT AND THEY DID A FRONT END ALIGNMENT TO NO AVAIL. SO I TOOK IT BACK THE SAME DAY A LEFT IT. STILL NOT FIXED, BUT THEY TELL ME IT IS NORMAL.

BOUGHT OUR VEHICLE NEW AS YOU DRIVE DOWN RODE THE FASTER YOU GO THE HARDER IT IS TO CONTROL STEERING TO STAY IN YOUR LANE. REPORTED IT TO DEALERSHIP THEY WON'T TAKE IT ON MAIN ROAD TO DRIVE FASTER THAN 35 SAYS IT'S A JEEP THING. THIS IS CONSTANT HARD TO HANDLE WHILE IN REGULAR DRIVE MODE.

TEST DROVE A 2020 JEEP SAHARA ON 8/7/2020 AND DROVE GOOD. BOUGHT A WHITE ONE BUT WAS NOT READY SO IT WAS GOING TO GET DELIVERED THE NEXT DAY AT MY HOUSE. WHITE 2020 JEEP SAHARA WAS DELIVERED ON 8/8/2020 AT AROUND 12:00 PM. SALESMAN SHOWED ALL FEATURES AND LEFT. I DID A TEST DRIVE AROUND 5:00PM, WEN ON THE HIGHWAY AND STEERING WAS REALLY OFF, DID A TURN AROUND TO COME BACK HOME. AT 55 PMH I TRIED TO CHANGE LANES AND I I LOST CONTROL AND ENDED UP IN A DITCH. STEETING WAS VERY LOOSE GOING LEFT TO RIGHT AND RIGHT TO LEFT. FELT I WAS SWERVING SO MUCH AND DID NOT FEEL THE SAME AS THE ONE WE TEST DROVE AT THE DEALERSHIP. CALLED DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THAT SINCE THE VEHICLE IS STILL BRAND NEW THAT THE ROADSIDE ASSITANCE WAS NOT AVAIBLE, LEFT ME THERE IN THE DITCH AND I HAD TO CALL MY INSURANCE. THIS HAPPENED IN SAN ANTONIO, TX. DO NOT BUY JEEP!!!

MY NEW 2020 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON HAS EXCESSIVE STEERING-WHEEL PLAY RESULTING IN AN INABILITY TO MAINTAIN A STRAIGHT LINE AT SPEED ON THE INTERSTATES. UNLIKE MY PREVIOUS 1997 AND 2005 WRANGLER OR CURRENT 2012 GRAND CHEROKEE, WHICH PERMIT TOTAL STEERING CONTROL, MT RUBICON MOVES FROM SIDE-TO-SIDE, I.E., "FLOATS, " WHEN DRIVING AT SPEED GREATER THAN 30 MPH OR ON BUMPY ROADS AND GETS WORSE ON INTERSTATES AT 60. CAN'T MAINTAIN A STRAIGHT LINE IN THE LANE, ONLY ABLE TO RECOVER AS THE VEHICLE DRIFTS FROM CENTER WHICH IS CONSTANT. THE DEALERSHIP'S SERVICE DEPT SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG AND IT IS A JEEP THING. CHRYSLER'S CUSTOMER CONCERN DEPT SAYS TAKING IT TO THE DEALER BUT AFTER THE THIRD TIME WITH ONLY 9,000 MILES ON THE JEEP I FEEL IT WILL NOT BE FIXED.AS I'VE DRIVEN ALL MODELS OF JEEP FOR SOME 30 YEARS, I'M QUITE DISAPPOINTED IN AS MUCH AS IT'S A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE NOT BEING ABLE TO FULLY CONTROL THE FRONT END AT SPEED ON THE HIGHWAY.

2020 JEEP WRANGLE JL WITH LESS THAN 3000 MILES WILL PERIODICALLY LOSE ACCELERATION AND NOT GO PAST 3 GEAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AFTER DRIVING FOR A BIT AND ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A RED LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. I HAVE NOTICED IF YOU TURN OFF THE VEHICLE AND BACK ON, IT SEEMS TO FIX THE PROBLEM BUT THE UNEXPECTED LOSS OF ACCELERATION AND ABILITY TO REACH NORMAL OPERATING SPEED HAS PUT ME IN DANGER SITUATIONS NUMEROUS TIMES. NOT SURE IF IT IS RELATED BUT I ALSO NOTED THAT THE AUTO START/STOP WARNING LIGHT WAS ON THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED.
