About These NHTSA Complaints:
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 contact owns a 2012 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic, who related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 15V675000 (Electronic Stability Control, Service Brakes, Hydraulic). The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 100,000.
Start the vehicle after it has been sitting for a few hours there is an extremely hard brake pedal. You can press as hard as you can the vehicle rolls away for 5 to 10 seconds depending how long the vehicle has sat. The vehicle is a manual transmission so in order to start the clutch needs to be compressed thus putting you in neutral with no brakes. The emergency brake also does not work in the all the way up position. So when starting in the morning or after a few hours there are no brakes at all.
