| Description of the problem | 09/29/2008 jeep taken to garage for head light failure nothing found. 03/09/2012 to 11/07/2012 all indicator light flash exterior lights flash. Been to the dealership three times for numerous days at a time they can not find anything wrong still having this problem. Really not good when it is dark out and you don't have headlights. At 15,000 and 35,000 i had to have the shift modular replaced because all the car would basically go in to neutral when being driven. I would have to pull over and turn the car off and restart it. The first time it was at the dealership for three days they could not find a problem and sent it home only to have to return 2 days later with the same problem. As i have found many people on line with these same issues makes you wonder first why these issues can't seem to be fixed, second why there has not been a recall. It is truly a miracle that no one i have heard of has been injured or killed because of these defects. When the jeep is working i love it. If i had a hope and a pray of getting a new vehicle i would trade in my paid off jeep in a heart beat so that i wouldn't have to constantly worry that it stop running or that i will be driving blind in the dark. Sadly i didn't even touch on the other electrical issues i. E. Window that had to be fixed remote keyless issues it is sad that the company doesn't do anything about these things this will be my last jeep. I feel that these problems are dangerous for me, my family and anyone that is on the road with me and other jeep owner with the same issues. |
