What owners filed with NHTSA about this car. Most recent first.
At highway speed when hitting even a small bump or road irregularity, the Jeep experienced the notorious "death wobble". Oscillating shimmy and momentary loss of control. I discovered the steering damper was blown out on the track bar. After looking into the technical service bulletins, I found that I have the aluminum steering gear box described in TSB-08-074-20. I took my vehicle to the deale
Seat belt light appears on dash even when I am Buckled. I went to see what the problem was and the specialist said the belt buckle was defective. The mechanic searched the part nationwide and was informed the part is not available. I’m currently driving with a faulty driver belt buckle which is a safety concern.
While driving, the entire digital instrument panel cluster suddenly short-circuited and went completely black, dropping all access to the speedometer and critical safety indicators. My vehicle has the 7-inch display. My independent repair shop diagnosed it as an internal short circuit and ordered a replacement Mopar factory part, which is currently on a 2-month factory backorder, leaving the car g
The Hood Silencer Pad (68752887AA, 68292166AA, 68292166AC, 68292166AD) is made from insulating fibers that attract rodents. The rodents detach portions of the silencer pad which can result in loose material that could become a projectile on the highway or contacting hot engine components, potentially creating a fire hazard.
The Instrument Cluster Dash lights go on and off all by themselves. This is a common problem with many Jeep Wranglers. Upon checking recalls I found my Jeep Vin was not listed. This can turn into deadly safety issues, not only for me but other drivers in different vehicles. What if the panel lights go off at night and I reck causing injuries to people or property?
Yes. In the US, safety recalls are repaired free of charge by the manufacturer at an authorized dealer, no matter how old the car is. Call your dealer's service department, give them your VIN, and book the repair.
Recalls cover specific production ranges, so two cars of the same model and year can differ. The surest check is your VIN: call the dealer or use the NHTSA VIN lookup at nhtsa.gov/recalls. The campaign numbers on this page are what the dealer uses to look it up.
Don't wait — book the free repair with an authorized dealer. If a recall says to park outside or not drive the car, follow that instruction: it usually means a fire or stall risk. Recall repairs are free and the dealer has the parts or will order them.
