This data is from the NHTSA — the US gov't agency tasked with vehicle safety. Complaints are spread across multiple & redundant categories, & are not organized by problem.
So how do you find out what problems are occurring? For this NHTSA complaint data, the only way is to read through the comments below. Any duplicates or errors? It's not us.
The air bag light was intermittent. The passenger side window and the driver side lock assembly was inoperative. The dealer was not willing to do anything to help. Scc
While driving on the NJ trnpke, the vehicle lost power and coasted towards the shoulder. Driver pulled over, and opened the hood, and didn't notice anything. While on the ramp, the vehicle started smoking and the thermometer gauge had begun to rise. The vehicle then bursted into flames. The consumer states that as they got on the ramp, a passing driver waved, and the consumer looked in the rear view mirror and saw the smoke coming from the engine compartment, possible ecectrical system failure.
Clunks constantly when shifting from park to reverse, goes in excess of 13mph and there is a electrical problem. I am on my third battery. It's been to 2 dealerships numerous times with the problem not being resolved, including arbitration!
ABS light, and brake light came on, indicating a brake malfunction. Wiring to the right wheel speed sensor was cut by lower control arm. The vehicle has electrical and suspension problems. Driver and passenger side power windows inoperative. Fuel pump failed. Vehicle is leaking transmission fluid due to pan gasket failure. Fuel is leaking from fuel tank due to defective fuel sending unit seal. ABS light, air bag lights are on and A/C blinkers are not working due to ignition switch looses. Vehicle makes noise due to power steering gear assembly failure.
The entire electrical system has to be replaced. Nothing works. Not the windows, the locks, the alarm, nothing! this is the 2nd time for the windows. 1st time was when it was 4 mths old. The engine stalls frequently and jerks on the highway. It often shifts to overdrive for no apparant reason and makes a lot of funny sounds. I've been to the dealer numerous times, each time they have an "oh well, it's still under warranty, just deal with it" attitude. Now, B/C I live in the atlanta area, there's a lot of miles on it, but when I first complained there wasn't many at all. This is ridiculous. One thing that I've done and I encourage others to do, since I can't get satisfaction or assistance from the dealers or manufacturer... I've written, in big bold letters (w/window paint) on my windows, all the things that are wrong with it, and I strongly urge others not to buy a Jeep...aka...a lemon! this is ridiculous...something should be done about consumer rip-offs!
The rotors get warped after 3000 miles they fixed it 5 times and it is continuing again, I had the fuel pump replaced, the transmission slips forward after braking they clame that is normal, I had numerous electrical problems ( windows are not closing, radio, etc.
