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 fuel supply line that attaches to the fuel rail at the engine sprung a leak at the seam were the plastic tube is sealed together. This is a high pressure line. This resulted in fuel being sprayed directly on the hot cylinder head creating a potential fire hazard.
The oil pressure sensor, I was in traffic and the vehicle came to a stop with scared the hell out me and this has hall a couple of time and came to find out it was caused by the oil pressure sensor. Why this is not on recall
fuel supply line going to the engine leaking gas directly onto engine. I started smelling gas and upon inspection found the leak. I googled it and found numerous links with people having the same issue. Definitely poses a safety hazard.
The Fuel Supply Tube part #68141849AD cracked, causing fuel to leak into the engine bay when the car was started. The entire cabin filled with gas fumes so intensely my eyes would water.
After having my car checked multiple times because the check engine light wouldn't go off, finally came to find that the Fuel Tank was cracked, my car was leaking gas, and the wires by the tank were all corroded. The car was not in an accident.

Driving on the highway at 75 mph, red lightning bolt light came on dash. Called dealer and they were no help so I unhooked the battery and it cleared. It did this a total of 4 times before I got home. Seems to be a known issue with throttle control system
The high pressure fuel line that is on top of the engine connected to the fuel rail failed. Gas was spraying on the hot engine. This situation could have caused a fire or explosion. I check and jeep recalled 2014 to 2020 for replacement of this fuel line, which is the same line on my jeep. I had to pay a dealer $757 to fix an issue jeep should be responsible.
Due to a strong odor of gasoline emanating from a recently filled fuel tank, the vehicle was towed (due to extreme fire risk) to an independent service center. A subsequent inspection determined a fuel leak in the upper part of the tank assembly and a cracked flange in the fuel pump assembly, which necessitated the replacement of the fuel tank and fuel pump assemblies. The vehicle components are no longer available for inspection and the vehicle was not inspected by anyone other than the owner of the independent service center. There were no warning lamps, messages or other symptoms of the problem other than the pungent smell of gasoline. The smell of fuel first occurred after filling the gas tank on/around 08/13/2021.
I smelled a very strong sent of fuel inside the cab while driving on my way home from work. I went to the gym and ask any of my friends to come take a look at it. A puddle of fuel built up underneath my vehicle in a matter of minutes. Once we opened the hood and turned on the Jeep for a second, it was immediately discovered that the fuel line split. It was a long split (2-3") along the length of the fuel line. Part number 68141849ad.
Numerous events of sudden stalling of vehicle at high speed in drive, at low speed in drive and reverse; creating a very dangerous situation involving near-miss rear end collisions. Can take up to 15 minutes to restart engine. Engine sometimes appears to restart with a ticking sound, has no power and automatic transmission can't be shifted into drive or reverse. Other times, engine starts and transmission can be shifted into drive or reverse, but gears do not engage. Numerous events, as common as stalling events, involving sudden and sometimes violent shocks to the drivetrain, which happen at all speeds, usually when accelerating. Everyone knows this is a tipm issue, with serious safety implications related to the potential for high speed rear end collisions by following vehicles, that Chrysler and the NHTSA have not taken adequate action to remedy except on limited affected vehicle types. Substantial information exists on this known issue, including information and documentation submitted to Chrysler and NHTSA. This particular vehicle was purchased new, started to exhibit this series of problems at the beginning of 2018 after 60,000+ miles, and has been back and forth to the dealer multiple times. There are no recorded error codes according to the dealer. The fuel pump relay has been replaced by dealer, supposedly, which was the latest unsuccessful attempt at solving the problem" prior to that work was performed on the transmission, supposedly, which also did not solve the problem? prior to the current symptoms, two unexplained dead battery events occurred. Now, readily found information shows a link with tipm and fuel pump relay failures that allow the fuel pump to run and drain the battery after turning off the ignition. How many more reports to NHTSA will it take to responsibly address this very serious potential rear collision safety issue related to the tipm"
Is not shifting into gear while driving it-was told my another mechanic that is reading as a shift control module issue under diagnostic testing machine- should be covered by power train warranty- vehicle only has 69K miles- calling Chrysler Jeep
The vehicle stalled out on one occasion several months ago. It cranked and cranked but wouldn't turn over. Today when trying to leave, I couldn't get it to turn over...after about half an hour and my battery almost dying I disconnected the negative connection to battery and it fired up after reconnecting. I'm reading there are 50,000+ vehicles with a tipm issue and believe this is impacting my Jeep. It's a $1300 fix that I think Chrysler/Jeep should own.
My Jeep Wrangler has stalled out while driving 2X and then does not restart even though it is cranking over. After 15 minutes of sporadic attempts to restart it starts and runs fine. I replaced the cam position sensor and the map sensor at the dealer after the first instance and drove 4000 miles without a problem. It just happened again today. It does not stutter like poor gas delivery or cough it just quits losing power steering and power breaks while I am going down the road.
Vehicle exhibits stalling and engine shut off at idle or low speeds below 60 mph. Vehicle bucks/slips/jerks at speeds of 60 mph+ as witnessed by dealer service mechanic. Vehicle intermittently will not go into gear or will reverse while in drive and must be turned off and returned to park, before attempting to restart. Check engine light on. No dealer codes found therefore, unable to properly diagnose and repair. Vehicle is very unsafe and unstable.
Vehicle stalled without warning. It has stalled 5 times while driving with no warning at different speeds and after different driving times. This time I had only driven 5 mins and about 300 yrds when it stalled. It has not started 2 times prior when leaving work. After 10mins the vehicle started and I drove it another 515 miles to dealership. Waiting to see what they do after the 5th time at the dealership. This thing is going to kill me one day. It has already stalled on the interstate at 60mph. It is only a matter of time.
Jeep has been stalling for 7 months. Been in shop 9 times. Jeep stalls going at different spends, while stopped, moving at idle in forward or reverse. Jeep will not start unless terminal on battery removed or sits for awhile. Transmission fails to engage occasionally in reverse or drive after stalling. Last program download appears to be a fault with the tipm (totally intergrated power module). Ptm and tpm changed out due to different readings in downloads. Mechanic believes now, that the tipm is faulty. Jeep has stalled up to 5 & 6 times on some days.
Got vehicle back from dealership after 5 different stallings and 3 times it did not start this is 3rd time at dealership. No code came up, tech drove 20 mins and they had no problem, said come pick up your vehicle. Got vehicle back on Thursday, drove Friday 240 miles with one stop in the middle with no issues. Drove back home 240 miles 2 days later, 3 hours and 45 mins into 4 hour drive, it stalled out with no warning. On single lane secluded road outside miami. Krome ave- no passing 2 lane road. Car stalled out with no warning. Was able to drift to side of road, waited 5 mins and it started back up. After it had stalled out and was on side of the road, it showed the lightning bolt in the venturi symbol. I escaped death and injury again. I have decided to get an insurance death policy on me. I think my luck is going to be running out after this being the 6th time stalling and 3rd time not starting. What do I do now"????" I have put a lot of money in this Jeep, with bumpers a lift kit.... I have no idea what to do. Chrysler is not helping. They have had other Chrysler vehicles including Jeep Cherokee that were recalled with this same problem but yet they cant fix my vehicle. I guess there were more rich people driving the other vehicles.
About a month ago I was in the middle of a 4 hour drive I do on a weekly basis and 2 hours into the drive my vehicle stalled as I was slowing for a yellow light. There was no warning at all and it took me a second to realize it had stalled. I was able to roll out of the traffic lane onto a side road. The police showed up and helped me push it off to the side of the road. At that point I tried to start it, approximately 10mins after stalling and it started right up. I went straight to autozone and had a new battery installed, $250 and got going on my way home - fat, dumb and happy - until 2 days later when it did it again. The second time it stalled I was on a busy 12 lane interstate 95 in downtown miami. Again I did not know it had stalled, I was increasing speed from about 50mph to 60mph and pushed the gas pedal and nothing happened. I was in the middle of 6 lanes and immediately put my hazards on and rolled through traffic onto the side of the interstate. I waited 5 mins and it started right up and I went straight to the Chrysler dealer in kendall, fl. They gave me a rental vehicle - thank god. About 3 weeks later they changed out the PCM and gave it back to me - fixed (supposedly). 2 weeks later it stalled in traffic on a 4 lane hwy; waited 5 mins and it started fine, was later at the store got in the vehicle and it would not start just kept trying to crank itself, waited 5 mins later and it started. That weekend took it to Chrysler in tampa (jerry ulm) they said it is not in my warranty and I paid $400 for what I was told was a Chrysler "work around". 2 days later it would not start and it tried to crank itself. I turned the key off and waited 5 mins and it started right up and I went directly to kendal Chrysler, where it is sitting today as I write this.
