Another 2014 Jeep Wrangler owner with a cracked oil filter housing/cooling assembly. Oil is spilling out all over exhaust. Certainly a fire hazard. With as many complaints with this particular part that I have seen all over Jeep forming and on the NHTSA site I am surprised that Chrysler has not taken any action but is leaving this to their owners to rectify.
Massive oil leak at the oil cooler housing. (2 quarts per day). Leaking on the top of the motor and leaking down the back passenger side engine directly over the hot exhaust manifold. Leak occurs at all RPM ranges and leaves massive puddles of oil everywhere I go which is not good for the environment. And presents a fire hazard if stuck in traffic and engine temps rise enough to cause ignition of leaking oil over a hot exhaust manifold.

2014 Wrangler, less than 60,000 miles, oil filter housing cracked. Leaks a ton of oil now, splashed in the exhaust, stinks, and could possible start a fire. For some reason this is a known issue for this particular year and model but there isn't a recall 🤔
The oil cooler assembly cracked causing oil to go all over the motor and transmission. It's around 800.00+ to replace this plastic part and it's a very very common problem in the 2014 Jeep Wrangler. Why hasn't there been a recall? I literally started it and let it idle for 10 minutes before leaving for work and it done this in my carport. Oil was everywhere.

Engine coolant and oil sprayed the underside of the Jeep started smoking paid to have it fixed then 4 months later the coolant is starting to leak again. Was told the parts are cheaply made and I am better off ditching this Jeep before it catches fire.
Coolent elbow with thermostat tends to develop a small leak, leaking could result in a engin seizure or being stranded on highway/off road not sire if this is a common issue or isolated
The heads on the penstar motor went bad due to a similar issues that was recalled on the 2012 and 2013 Jeep Wrangler causing the compression to pull in coolant into the cylinders and causing it not to start.
