Purchased vehicle used in May 2015. I'm the second owner. On approximately Aug. 29, while driving and making a left turn from a stop, I heard a banging noise. The same banging noise happened about 1 week later (Sep. 3), but this time when turning right from a stop. I drove the vehicle home and inspected under the vehicle to check it out. I discovered that the upper control arms on both the driver rear and passenger rear sides were completely broken. Vehicle is still under 3 year 36/000 factory warranty and I also purchased an extended warranty. The dealer provided a "recall report" which came back clean. My vehicle has been parked since Sep 3. I am having it towed to a Chrysler dealership in a couple of days after parts come in for repair. This vehicle could have come totally apart had I been driving at a high rate of speed. In addition, the rear cv joint needed to be replaced. Updated 10/07/15.
My Jeep has a problem with the front tire alignment. The right and left tire wear to fast atd the outer side causing possible problem during handling on wet roads. I have take the Jeep to a shop to be align, but the mechanic toll me that the problem with my Jeep is the camber position and these position is set by the factory. The factory desent want to make the replacement of the front differential and the related component. What I can do to resolve these issue?
Following the recall number N28/NHTSA 13V-234 and P61/NHTSA 14V-631 I took my car to potamkin's planet Dodge Chrysler Jeep dealer in miami Florida 33172 on March 13, 2015. They left the car there for one day and they gave me the receipt stating "transmission oil cooler tube - replace power steering tube, inspect transmission oil cooler tube, install protective sleeve and bleed power steering system" and also "heated power side view mirror wire harness - repair install new mirror connectors and water shields." I inspected the car myself after pickup and I noticed none of the repairs were done. I went back to the dealer on March 21, 2015 and I spoke with the service department manager, [xxx]. the car was inspected again and, in fact, no work had been done. They then installed the sleeve in the transmission oil cooler tube and he told me it was the only work needed. So the previous information on March 13, 2015 was fraudulent. Information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
When I go to the gas station to fuel up, I engage the pump lock lever so the pump will fill up and shut off automatically when my gas tank is full. Unfortunately, the fuel pump disengages too late, and an unbelievably excessive amount of fuel will spurt out, cascading down the side of my vehicle. 2 different dealerships have attempted to resolve the issue, yet the problem persists. I have filled up at gas stations across no less than 10 different states - from the West coast to the northeast; with a variety of fuel pump styles; amid various temperatures; yet the only variation is the velocity with which the fuel sprays from the pump.

Vehicle was in park, when I put it into drive, the engine shut off. Did this 4 times before I was able to keep it going. Got down the road, and when I stopped at the stop sign, engine quit again. Also Jeep would not go into drive it was stuck in neutral. After several attempts, Jeep went into drive. From there every time the vehicle stopped the engine would stall. No check engine lights came on, no warnings no nothing.

The hill start assist malfunctions constantly, this can stall the engine when starting out in traffic and cause excessive ware on the brakes and clutch. There are 2 switches that tell the computer when the clutch pedal is pressed. One when you first start to press in the clutch and another that tells the computer when the clutch is pressed in all the way. The hill start assist is programmed to use the switch that tells the computer when you first start to press in the clutch instead of the switch that tells the computer when the clutch pedal is fully pressed. This causes the brakes to stay locked up even after the clutch is fully engaged when starting on a hill. The computer needs to be reprogrammed to release the brakes as soon as you start to release the clutch petal before the clutch fully engages. The hill start assist should use the same switch that tells the computer the clutch is fully pressed which is the same switch that is used to prevent the vehicle from starting in gear and not the switch that tells the computer when the pedal is lightly pressed which is the switch that turns off the cruise control.
The affected parts in my 2013 Jeep Wrangler unlimited is the transmission (mileage 27,200). This event has occurred several times since the first time it was taken into the dealership in April 2014. I will be driving and the vehicle will not shift into gear (I have an automatic transmission). Doesn't matter how fast or slow I am going or if I am on flat and hilly roads. I will have to punch the gas and accelerate to 60-65 mph before the gear shifts. It scares me especially when I am only driving 30-40 mph. The RPM's will be up to 5000 and finally the vehicle will shift gears. The first time it was serviced for the problem (April 3, 2014) the mechanic did have the problem happen to him when driving my vehicle. They found a vacuum hose disconnected from the air-inlet elbow. Once they fixed that it seemed like the problem subsided briefly(3 weeks) then right back to gears not shifting. I have taken back to the dealership 2 other times now and they can not find anything wrong, of course!!! I love my Jeep, but feel very unsafe when driving it. I am not sure what I should do now, especially with the mechanic saying he cant find anything wrong.

I called today, 8/14/2014 and it is still back ordered!!!! what am I supposed to do, continue driving the vehicle with the risk of crashing?!
