 Description of the problemOil cooler housing cracking under normal conditions causing oil to leak. Given the relatively slow but consistent leak this problem can go very easily unnoticed but result in catastrophic engine failure and ultimately cause accidents. If this part completely fails there may be no warning time and cause engine seize and/or permanent engine damage. Part has been re-designed multiple times and is a very well known issue in many 2014 and other year jeep wrangler vehicles. Part should be recalled and vehicles suspected to have this part inspected for leaking oil. In my scenario i noticed dripping oil from around both sides of the transmission bell housing but unable to trace to the source at first. After reading a few forums i looked down along side the oil filter housing and found a puddle of oil laying in the valley of the engine. Many others have reported this very same issue and the fact that the part has been re-designed so many times and can cause safety concerns, i would like nhtsa so please investigate this.
