 Description of the problemOil was constantly running low, and on 2 occasions was found to be empty, even after oil changes. No signs of leaks or oil burning, so i assumed the dealership screwed up. Over the summer, the condensation from the a/c was leaving stains on my driveway, but still no signs of oil. A google search of a/c condensation water stains for my jeep revealed that the engine oil cooler might be the cause. Sure enough, an inspection revealed oil sitting around the oil cooler. I took it to pellegrino jeep and they confirmed the oil cooler had cracked and needed to be replaced. The repair cost me a little over $1000! Unless jeep redesigned this part, i will eventually experience another out of warranty failure. When jeep was contacted, they did not provide any help since my vehicle had 73k miles on it and was out of warranty. My contention is that there really is no way to determine how many miles were on the vehicle when the part failed. Its a known fact that jeep changed the design of the part from metal to plastic. The consumer should not be responsible for jeeps engineering errors. I'm fearful that my engine may have suffered irreparable damage, causing premature failure.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
