2008 Jeep WRANGLER Engine And Engine Cooling Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	777983
Internal NHTSA #	10320543
Manufacurer	CHRYSLER GROUP LLC
Brand	JEEP
Model	WRANGLER
Model Year	2008
File date	13/03/10
Component	ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	The complaint is how chrysler corp. Is addressing the j30 recall. Transmission overheating causing engine fires. I own a 2008 wrangler that cost 50k. For the j30 recall fix they are adding a hot oil icon on the dash and flash the computer to recognize a sensor. The engine can still catch fire. Someone needs to force chrysler to add a new transmission cooler to cool the fluid, and prevent the oil from boiling. I was told by the dealer engine fires can happen in city traffic starting and stopping. They also informed me that they could sell me one at $500 with two hours of labor at $110 per hr. If this is a recall, due to faulty engineering, then why does the customer have to pay to fix the recall ??? I am writing this before there is property and or personal damage. Hopefully, someone in nhtsa can help with the way chrysler is handling this particular recall.

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.
