Jeep Wrangler problems
The Jeep Wrangler is a series of compact and mid-size four-wheel drive off-road SUVs manufactured by Jeep since 1986, and currently in its fourth generation. The Wrangler JL, the most recent generation, was unveiled in late 2017 and is produced at Jeep's Toledo Complex.
The Wrangler is a direct progression from the World War II Jeep, through the CJ (Civilian Jeeps) produced by Willys, Kaiser-Jeep, and American Motors Corporation (AMC) from the mid-1940s through the 1980s. Although neither AMC nor Chrysler (after it purchased AMC in 1987) have claimed that the Wrangler was a direct descendant of the original military model — both the CJ Jeeps and the conceptually consistent Wrangler, with their solid axles and open top, have been called the Jeep model as central to Jeep's brand identity as the rear-engine 911 is to Porsche.
Similar to the Willys MB and the CJ Jeeps before it, all Wrangler models continue to use a separate body and frame, rigid live axles both front and rear, a tapering nose design with flared fenders, a fold-flat windshield and can be driven without doors. Also, with few exceptions, they have part-time four-wheel drive systems, with the choice of high and low gearing, and standard open bodies with removable hard or soft tops. However, the Wrangler series was specifically redesigned to be safer and more comfortable on-road, to attract more daily drivers, by upgrading its suspension, drivetrain, and interior, compared to the CJ line. The suspension on all Wranglers included trackbars and anti-roll bars, and, from the 1997 TJ onwards, front and rear coil springs instead of the previous leaf springs.
From 2004 on, the Wrangler has been complemented with long-wheelbase versions, called Wrangler Unlimited. 2004-2006 models were longer versions with 2 doors. In 2004 only automatic transmission-equipped “Unlimited” versions were sold. In 2005 both an automatic and manual 6-speed (NSG-370) were offered. Since 2007, the long-wheelbase Wranglers were four-door models, offering over 20 in (508 mm) more room. By mid-2017 the four-door models represented three-quarters of all new Wranglers on the market.

Common Jeep Wrangler problems
The Jeep Wrangler is a popular off-roading vehicle, but it has faced various problems over its four generations. Some of the most common issues include engine popping, automatic transmission problems, the notorious death wobble, and Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) failure.
- Automatic Transmission Issues: Since the 2005 Jeep Wrangler, several owners have reported problems with the automatic transmission, including the vehicle getting stuck in one gear.
- The Death Wobble: The third generation of the Jeep Wrangler (2007-2018) is the least reliable, with many owners experiencing the notorious death wobble.
- Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) Failure: The TIPM is responsible for controlling low voltage electronics, such as headlights, starter motor, fuel pump, and throttle control. Fiat Chrysler vehicles between 2007 and 2015 are famous for issues with the TIPM, causing problems like power windows cranking but no engine starts, stalling while moving, and airbags deploying at random.
These are just a few of the common problems reported by Jeep Wrangler owners. It's essential to research and consider these issues when purchasing a new or used Jeep Wrangler. Regular maintenance can help prevent or minimize these problems, ensuring a safer and more enjoyable driving experience.

- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-25
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-26
- VIN: 1C4JJXR60NW
- Components: UNKNOWN OR OTHER
- Summary: I am writing to file a complaint regarding the recent safety recall (NHTSA Recall Numbers: 24V-720 and 24E-080) affecting my Chrysler vehicle. The recall pertains to a potential fire risk associated with the high-voltage battery pack. While I appreciate Chrysler’s efforts to address this safety concern, I have serious reservations about the effectiveness of the proposed remedy. 1.Safety Concerns: I am worried about the safety of my vehicle’s battery. The recall notice indicated that a battery pack may contain cells with separator damage that could lead to a vehicle fire. I find it concerning that the proposed remedy primarily involves a software update and inspection, rather than an immediate battery replacement, especially given the potential risks involved. 2.Request for Action: I urge the NHTSA to investigate this matter further and consider whether the proposed remedy adequately addresses the safety risks posed by the high-voltage battery. I believe that consumers deserve clear information and effective solutions when it comes to potential safety defects in their vehicles. Thank you for your attention to this matter. I look forward to your prompt response regarding the steps being taken to address this safety concern.
Jeep Wrangler 2023
- Date Of Incident: 2024-10-04
- Date Complaint: 2024-10-26
- VIN: 1C4JJXP68PW
- Components: ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
- Summary: I am writing to express my serious concern regarding the unresolved safety recall 95B affecting my Jeep Wrangler. As a parent, my children’s safety is my utmost priority, and knowing that the battery—a component at risk due to this recall—is positioned directly under their seats has made me extremely uneasy. I no longer feel confident or safe driving this vehicle with them inside. Despite the recall, I have been informed there is currently no remedy available. This lack of a solution leaves me without a secure vehicle and heightens my concerns over the risks associated with continuing to drive it. Additionally, my request for a buyback has been denied, which is disheartening given the absence of an available remedy and the potential safety hazards involved. I am seeking immediate assistance and a resolution that prioritizes the safety of my family.

- Summary: My 20214XE Hybrid from the day I bought it was often saying "electric not available" There was a potential fire recall last winter that took four months to remedy, during that time we were told not to charge it, park in our garage, park near our home/structures or park by other cars. I purchase a hybrid that I'm not able to use as a hybrid. Finally, got the repair in the spring. Literally, two months later, it starts doing all kinds of dangerous things. I would come to a stop or be in the middle of a turn and would have no power whatsoever, gas pedal to the floor and going nowhere and then would lunge forward. Took to the dealer, computer said CRITICAL hybrid battery overheating, the original repair clearly didn't work. Eventually, it was approved for hybrid battery being replaced. All was well until 2 weeks ago when it got "jeep death wobble", violently shaking back and forth at about 60mph. They did repair it but informed us that there is ANOTHER RISK FOR FIRE RECALL, do not charge it or park in garage, etc. etc. I have a vehicle that is a risk for BURNING MY HOUSE DOWN, this is multiple times and unacceptable. I also purchased a hybrid that I am not able to use as a hybrid.

- Summary: Driving on an Interstate Highway in Florida, hit a small "rut" in the roadway at Highway speeds and the front end started shaking "VIOLENTLY" to the point I though the vehicle was going to "Roll Over". I had to slow down, switch from the center lane of a three lane highway crossing over the outside lane then onto the shoulder of the Highway, get the speed down from 70 to 50 mph before the "Violent Shaking" stopped. When speaking with a service center for Jeep I was told this is a "KNOWN ISSUE" with the 2021 Jeep Wrangler but there is no recall for the vehicle year 2021 BUT there were for other vehicle years, which I find UNBELEIVABLE!!!! As a retired Police Officer I will tell you this is a VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY OR SOMEONE WILL GET KILLED IN A CRASH!!!

This is my third Jeep Wrangler. I've owned a '95 and an '00 before, and they were both great fun. However, the '09 4-door model is a Jeep for grownups. The longer wheelbase makes for a much more comfortable ride, and the new ones are much wider too. While I'm not completely sold on the 3.8 V6, so far, it's been good. The most important points to note are: (1) It's a Jeep. (2) Nothing has gone wrong. I've only had to get fluid changes. For experienced Jeep owners, this model is much more civilized than what you're used to. For those new to a Jeep, be warned: it's still a real Jeep, and that means it may not suit everybody.

Looking for a dependable, strong, go-anywhere fun Jeep? This is it. I opted for the 4 cylinder because it has plenty of power with better fuel economy. Wranglers are perfect for adventurous people who want to have fun - not for those who want a comfortable Cadillac. Since the Jeep is not the most comfortable, it may not be the best choice for everyone, but it does what it is supposed to do excellently.

The 2dr Jeep Wrangler may not be suitable for everyone due to its small size and limited cargo space. However, it is perfect for two people who want to easily maneuver through tight spaces, such as parking lots or off-road terrain. While the ride may be firm, it provides great steering feel when traversing uneven terrain. Additionally, the engine power is perfect for blasting through deep snowdrifts or climbing steep hills. When you're ready to take a break from the long distance ride, the Wrangler allows you to turn off the beaten path and camp overnight in an area that feels untouched. Overall, the Jeep Wrangler 2dr is a unique and adventurous vehicle that offers a one-of-a-kind driving experience.

I'm so glad you're enjoying your Jeep! It sounds like you made a great decision with the new V6 and other improvements. Off-roading in the mountains and desert of So Cal must be amazing! It's great to hear that you're getting good gas mileage too, with 17-18 mpg in the city and as much as 23 mpg on the highway at 65 mph. And it's even better to hear that you haven't had any problems or concerns with it yet, even after driving 6K miles. Keep on enjoying your Jeep!

I purchased this vehicle for $8400 just three months ago, and unfortunately had to take it to the dealer for a PCM replacement which cost $1500. Despite the challenge of finding cheaper parts due to them being out of stock or discontinued, I am determined to get the PCM fixed. Once the repair is complete, I plan to sell the vehicle.

If you can accept the limitations of a Jeep, you'll truly appreciate its capabilities. While it won't reach speeds over 70 mph, save you money on gas, or impress your girlfriend's mother, it will take you anywhere at a steady 5 mph. Additionally, it's an affordable option that looks great even when dirty. For under $5000, it's the coolest vehicle you can get. To make the most of it, opt for a manual transmission, 33

I have two identical build JL's, a 2020 and most recently this 2023. Unfortunately, the quality on the 2023 is not up to par. I ordered the new one with the expectation of receiving everything that I have with the 2020, but what I received was not up to my standards. I noticed a large fiber beneath the paint on the A-pillar a few days after taking ownership, which was corrected by the dealership. However, during the repair, the dealer accidentally screwed up a door sensor which caused the ESS to malfunction. Additionally, there is an issue with water entering the driver side footwell from an unknown point of entry. Despite purchasing all weather floor mats to protect the carpet, it is still getting soaked. Unfortunately, my dealership has not been helpful in resolving these issues. While I have been disappointed by this '23 JL, I have never had such an experience with any other new vehicle I have purchased in the past. I hope to avoid such issues in the future.

Hi there! I hope you're doing well. I wanted to share my experience with my Jeep that I bought in May 2019 for just under $60K. Unfortunately, in August with just over 2,000 miles, I had to take it in to be repainted because the bright white paint turned yellow due to too much heat from the engine. There are no vents in the hood, which I think is the main issue. Although the dealership did have it repainted and it looks great, I spent $700 on a clear bra right after I bought it and Chrysler does not cover to have it replaced. I think it would be great if Chrysler offered replacement hoods with vents for the bright white jeeps. Now I will have to spend another $1,000 - $1,500 to purchase a hood with vents and have it painted PLUS another $700.00 to have the clear bra put back on. This puts my jeep at about $63k, which is quite a lot. I'm a bit disappointed and I think I should have stayed with Lexus. Thanks for listening to my story!

My daughter and I have been experiencing a very harrowing situation with our Jeep. Despite visiting several dealerships, we have not received a satisfactory solution to the problem. The warning lights on the dashboard indicate a problem with the transmission and powertrain, but the service departments are insisting that it is a battery issue. This has put my daughter's safety at great risk, and I am extremely frustrated with the lack of concern shown by the service departments. I am considering legal action and have reached out to various organizations for assistance. As a responsible parent, I am determined to find a solution to this problem and ensure that my daughter is safe while driving.
