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.
Front brakes lock up on slick roads and then no control. I have taken it back several times. Took back the other dy and the shop foreman almost went in a ditch. I dont let my wife drive as it is dangerous. It has antilock brakes on front. The shop man said that I need to get someone from factory to look at. I cannot get any satisfaction from company. I took it to another dealer the other day and he said that there was no way to stop this Jeep on a slick road. I would like for some factpry person to look at it. As it is very dangerpus. I do not drive it on snowy roads as you cant stop it in 2-wheel drive. I woulappreciate your help on this matter.
Vehicle was involved in a crash. To avoid a head on collision, driver applied brakes and Jeep veered to the left, making head-on impact with a bridge. After flipping several times ended up over guard rail on river bank beside a tree. Driver sustained massive severe injuries and permanent disabilities. No recalls were issued until after vehicle was totaled and destroyed. Airbag team was called at time of incident and stated to look at vehicle would only be a waste of their time and our money. I was shocked to find there were defects in the SRS, I thank god I was not killed in this crash because of obvious defects.
