The secondary hood latch failed, and was not securing the hood. In the event of a primary hood latch failure, the hood could release and strike the windshield while driving, obscuring vision and potentially causing bodily harm. My research indicates that this is not an isolated incident.

There is galvanic corrosion forming on all of my hinges on my vehicle. The steel hinges touching the aluminium door panel. You can see the bubbling happening and it is a known issue on Jeep Wrangler. Eventually it will rust and cause major problems being that it is happening on all of my door hinges. I first noticed it in 2016 and it continues to get worse. You can google rust on Wrangler door hinges and see the thousands of pictures of Jeep owners with the same issues, or go onto a Jeep forum or talk to any Jeep Wrangler owner. I can provide my own pictures if needed I didn't take any yet.

Since I have owned the vehicle the windshield wipers will come on every once in a while when I turn on the left blinker. I also have a problem with the tailgait. After about 3 years of ownership of the vehicle the tailgate hinge did not stop the tailgate from opening up a full 180 degrees causing the elbow joint to come completely out and my right tail light to be shattered. I was told by the dealer ship that this was common issue, but they would not return my calls/emails to get it fixed.

This vehicle was purchased in November of 2011. By April my wife started to have continuous visits to the emergency room for respiratory issues. Eventually I took out the carpets and found it there was water leaking inside the vehicle on some occasions after it was taken to the dealership and it was allegedly fixed, there was standing water about three inches in the footwell on numerous occasions I had to take out the drain plugs and drain the water the carpet is infested with mold and mildew. My family cannot make extended trips in the vehicle unless I thoroughly vacuumed dry and wipe every crevice of the vehicle down. I have seen the leaking while the vehicle is stationary I've also seen the vehicle leaking while I was driving. I have contacted fca (Fiat Chrysler of America) on social media and was informed to take it to the dealership. Which I've already done so I have talked to other people in the Jeep community and I've talked to my local Jeep dealer and they stated since the vehicles out of warranty that I would have to bring the vehicle back in and pay numerous fees in order for them to fix the vehicle from leaking which they have replace the seals on the door once and that has not remedy the situation. I don't think it is fair that the owner who has really taken the vehicle out offroad this vehicle has only touched sand and gravel roads and has not done anything extreme. This is an obvious design flaw from fca dealerships are taken advantage of family's health and safety by not fixing this potentially fatal flaw. The mold and mildew can cause the driver and their passengers do you have asthma attacks and other health-related issues.

Rear passenger side door handle button is not releasing after opening (sticking). Therefore, door sometimes does not latch shut and comes open while driving. Although, properly buckled, safety concern is due to rear passengers, such as children.

2012 Jeep Wrangler was a "postal vehicle", in that the steering wheel was on the right-hand side of the vehicle. Driver error occurred, in that driver was on right shoulder of two lane highway, but pulled out into traffic to perform "a 180" degree turn in order to reverse direction. Driver did not properly yield the right-of-way. When entering highway, vehicle was struck by oncoming, speeding car. Crash resulted. Impact was so severe that female passenger in back seat who was wearing her seat belt was ejected (and killed). Seat belt was torn due to force. Roof cover was insufficient to stop ejection. Male passenger in back seat, also belted, was also killed. Injuries to two passengers in front seat. Possible defects include the design defects inherent in right-sided steering wheel, and also the seat belt shearing, plus roof cover failure during crash.

I was getting off of the highway from about an hour commute home when the driver door caught on fire. I put the vehicle in park, I tried to unlock the driver door to get out, and I couldn't. tried to get out the passenger, couldn't. I took off my jacket, and tried to smother the fire. It didn't work. I crawled out the back door (not locked for some reason). People stopped to help, we were able to open the driver door from the outside and threw snow in the door until the fire stopped. Firefighters then disassembled the door to make sure the fire really was out. My car was towed to a shop.

Rear ended another vehicle at a speed of approximately 25 mph. The air bags did not deploy at time of impact or at all. Noticed that the rear windshield wipers did not work as well as the automatic door locks. Apparently this is a electrical issue that could have caused some serious injuries.

The car had been driven for less than 15 minutes. Upon pulling up to the stop light, smoke started coming out from the hood then ventilation. After getting kids out of the car, I used a fire extinguisher under the front of the car. Once the extinguisher was exhausted, there was still smoke and small flames. At this point, there were flaming pieces dropping from underneath. I then got safely away and waited until the fire department arrived. The fire was significant. It melted the front end before the fire department arrived.

Rear gate stopper failed & broke off when rear gate was opened on a reasonably flat surface, forcing gate to rapidly open much wider than normal, which also broke the plastic interior components and plastic hinge covers. Safety concerns are: The metal stopper snapping and hitting someone / having jagged edge when it snaps. The rear gate unexpectedly swinging open wider than expected and hitting someone. When the stopper snapped it was rather sudden & the gate really swung open quickly in a way which could hurt a child or elderly person if they were standing near the vehicle.

Chrysler has a safety recall number N28. I have been told by the dealer that I can not have my car fixed per recall guidelines because mopar stopped making the parts. I have been told at this point it may take several months to receive service. The recall states that damage to the transmission line can cause the vehicle to have loss of transmission. I drive 3 young children under the age of 10 years old every day to and from school and can not get any accountability from Jeep. I am hoping you can investigate why Chrysler has stopped making the part and why they can not perform any maintenance for any owners per the recall requirements.

Our 2012 Jeep Wrangler unlimited has stock wheels and rims, in fact it has the smallest stock wheels and rims offered by the manufacturer. We have not "upsized" our wheels and rims with aftermarket products. The metal "strap" (that's what they call it at the dealer) on the tailgate that keeps it from swinging wide open broke, and when it broke it swung open and broke the tail light lens and housing. The dealer replaced it under warranty, and within a week it broke a second time. The dealer replaced it a second time. Again, within a week, it broke for a third time. It was replaced under warranty again. This was just yesterday. The dealer says it replaces these all the time, at least one a week. This is a faulty part that should be recalled. I have looked on Jeep Wrangler forums and lots of people have this problem, and lots of people have it happen multiple times.

While driving to work after clearing snow from my vehicle...there remained a large piece of ice that would not readily disengage from Jeep while trying to clear snow and ice. The hood has a deep well in the shape of a horse shoe...the design is a flaw (replicated from another design from aev but when put into production they left out drainage design) because water accumulates on the hood while warm and driving in snow etc...when shut down the water that remains on the hood refreezes and can not be removed unless you care about damaging the paint by forcefully chiseling it away. Long story short I was on the highway and could see that the engine heat was melting the ice panel and sure enough it flew up and over my windshield not without smashing the header of my windshield and then near missing the vehicle that was in back of me. The design will definitely cause damage in the future this I can say without hesitation. If Chrysler had chose the option to vent the water out of the hood there would be no problem. Unfortunately they did not. Now every winter I pray that I am not traveling during heavy new england weather because this issue will repeat itself as many times as we get snow.
