Air bags, frontal, passenger side, inflator moduleDo not drive until repairedJan 15, 2019
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2010 Dodge Ram 3500, Ram 4500/5500, 2010-2011 Dodge Dakota, 2010-2014 Dodge Challenger, 2010-2015 Dodge Challenger, Chrysler 300, and 2010-2016 Jeep Wrangler vehicles. Upon deployment of the driver's frontal air bag, excessive internal pressure may cause the inflator to explode.
In the event of a crash necessitating deployment of the passenger's frontal air bag, the inflator could explode with metal fragments striking the vehicle occupants potentially resulting in serious injury or death.
Owners are advised not to drive their vehicle until the recall repair is complete. Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the passenger frontal air bag inflator, free of charge. The recall began February 4, 2019. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is V01.

Air bags, frontal, driver side, inflator moduleMay 11, 2016
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2011-2016 Right Hand Drive Jeep Wrangler vehicles manufactured February 16, 2010, to May 2, 2016. The clockspring assembly may become contaminated with dust and cause the air bag circuit to fail.
Failure of the air bag circuit may prevent the driver's frontal air bag from deploying in the event of a crash, increasing the risk of injury.
Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the clockspring, wheel back cover, and column shroud, free of charge. The recall began on August 11, 2016. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is S40.

Tires, pressure monitoring and regulating systemsOct 8, 2014
Chrysler Group LLC (Chrysler) is recalling certain model year 2014 Chrysler Town and Country and Dodge Grand Caravan vehicles manufactured March 20, 2014, to April 22, 2014, and 2014 Jeep Wrangler vehicles manufactured March 21, 2014, to April 22, 2014. Due to a software error, the Tire Pressure Monitoring System (TPMS) may fail to learn the locations of the individual sensors while the vehicle is being driven. As a result, the low tire pressure warning light will illuminate, despite the the tire pressures being within specification. Should one of the tires lose air pressure, the driver would not be notified of the change in air pressure. As such, these vehicles fail to comply with the requirements of Federal Motor Vehicle Safety Standard No. 138, "Tire Pressure Monitoring Systems."
If the TPMS light illuminates because the sensors cannot be located, it could mask an actual low tire pressure condition, possibly resulting in tire failure, increasing the risk of a crash.
Chrysler has notified owners, and dealers will reprogram the TPMS module, free of charge. The recall began on October 23, 2014. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is P63.

SUMMARY: OIL COOLER HOUSING CRACKED. THIS OCCURRED AT LESS THAN 51,000. WE WERE LUCKY THAT IT HAPPENED IN OUR GARAGE RATHER THEN WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE DUE TO THE OIL LEAK AND HAD TO BE TOWED FOR REPAIRS. IF WE HAD BEEN DRIVING IT COULD HAVE CAUSED ENGINE FAILURE. COVERED UNDER POWER TRAIN WARRANTY BUT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON THEME WITH THE 2014S. REQUEST RESEARCH HELP *BF *TR

I NOTICED MOTOR OIL LEAKING FROM THE BOTTOM OF MY VEHICLE WHILE PARKED. AFTER THE MECHANIC INSPECTED IT, IT WAS DETERMINED TO BE A LEAK IN OIL COOLER / FILTER HOUSING AFTER FURTHER INVESTIGATION I FOUND SEVERAL CAR OWNERS WITH THE SAME DAMAGE IN JEEP VEHICLES BELOW 40K.

LEAK FROM THE MOTOR OIL COOLER HOUSING, ON THE 3.6L PENTASTAR V6 ENGINE FROM A 2014 JEEP WRANGLER. THE OIL COOLER HOUSING WAS REVISED IN THE 2014 MODEL YEAR FROM A METAL PART TO A PLASTIC PART. MINE STARTED LEAKING AT 20998 MILES. THE LEAK IS IDENTIFIED PRIMARILY BY A POOL OF OIL FORMING IN THE "V" AT THE BASE OF THE COOLER HOUSING, AND MOTOR OIL RUNNING DOWN OFF THE TOP OF THE TRANSMISSION BELLHOUSING AND AROUND THE TRANSMISSION PAN (AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION). THE LEAK IS NOT A TRANSMISSION LEAK, IT IS AN OIL LEAK FROM THE MOTOR OIL COOLER HOUSING.

JEEP WRANGLER EFFECTED. 2014 WITH 17000 MILES THE OIL FILTER/OIL COOLER HOUSING FAILED AND LEAKED 3QTS OF OIL IN LESS THEN 24HOURS. THE OIL WAS CHANGED 5 MONTHS PRIOR TO THIS PROBLEM AND THE DEALER CLAIMED THE OIL FILTER WAS PUT ON TO TIGHT WHICH CAUSED CRACKS IN THE HOUSING AND WOULD NOT COMPLETE THE WORK UNDER WARRENTY. AFTER THE REPAIR I REQUESTED TO KEEP THE PART THAT WAS TAKEN OUT. AFTER CLOSE EXAMINATION AND USING COMPRESSED AIR TO SEE IF I COULD FIND A CRACK THERE WAS CRACK TO BE FOUND. ONLY THING I COULD SEE THAT COULD CAUSE A LEAK WAS A MISSING GASKET ON BOTTON OF HOUSE.

MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED IS CURRENTLY BEING SERVICED FOR A CRACKED OIL COOLER. THE OIL LEAK WAS FIRST NOTICED WHILE PARKED IN MY GARAGE. I HAD TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO A LOCAL SHOP AND THEY DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A CRACKED OIL COOLER. I WAS ALSO TOLD I WAS LUCKY THERE WAS NO FIRE CAUSED AS THERE WAS SO MUCH OIL. I WAS TOLD IT SHOULD STILL BE UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE IS GETTING ITS NORMAL SERVICES NOW AND WILL BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER TOMORROW. I HAVE GOOGLED THIS PROBLEM AND THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE FOR THE 2014 JEEP WRANGLER.

TRANSFER CASE REAR MAIN SEAL LEAK AS DIAGNOSED BY TWO DIFFERENT JEEP DEALERSHIPS (JEEP OF HOLLYWOOD AND MASSEY YARDLEY JEEP). I HAVE TAKEN THE CAR IN TWICE FOR REPAIR AND THE LEAK CONTINUES (02/24/2017 [HOLLYWOOD JEEP] AND 03/08/2017 [MASSEY YARDLEY]). THE CAR IS IN FOR REEVALUATION AND REPAIR AS I AM WRITING THIS MAKING IT THE THIRD TIME IN THREE WEEKS THE CAR IS BEING REPAIRED FOR THE SAME ISSUE (03/17/2017 [MASSEY YARDLEY]). THIS INVOLVES THE MOTOR OIL IN THE VEHICLE AND LEAKS REGARDLESS OF WHETHER THE VEHICLE IS IDLE OR BEING DRIVEN. ONCE THE WRANGLER IS DRIVEN THE THE OIL HEATS UP, AND THINS OUT, CAUSING THE OIL TO LEAK IN LARGER AMOUNTS AND FASTER. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE BECAUSE LEAKING OIL CAN START AN ENGINE FIRE OR TOO MUCH OIL LOST CAN CAUSE AN ENGINE TO BE DAMAGED OR EVEN SEIZE. JEEP CORPORATE CUSTOMER SERVICE HAS BEEN NOTIFIED OF THIS ISSUE AND THEIR "CASE MANAGEMENT" TEAM HAS BEEN INVOLVED IN ATTEMPTING TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE, HOWEVER, TO-DATE ALL CUSTOMER SERVICE REPS INDICATE THERE IS NO RECALL OR INVESTIGATION INTO THESE ISSUES. AS AN ASIDE, THE CAR WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BY THE ORIGINAL OWNER (PER CARFAX REPORT), FOR TRANSFER CASE RELATED ISSUES 11/18/2015. I IMPLORE NHTSA TO INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE AS THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL TO BE A LIFE THREATENING ISSUE.

OIL LEAK BEING CAUSED FROM CRACKED OIL HOUSING/CASING/BELLHOUSE. SIMILAR ISSUE AMONGST A LARGE PERCENTAGE OF 2014 JEEP WRANGLERS
Power train, Engine, Feb 2, 2017
THE OIL COOLER UNDER THE INTAKE, THE JEEP HAS 68K MILES ON IT, NEEDS A THIRD OIL COOLER, THE DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO COVER THEM UNDER WARRANTY, THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE THE FIRST YEAR I BOUGHT THE JEEP BRAND NEW. EVERY TIME THEY CRACK, OUT OF THE BLUE, NO WARNING, THE DRIVER IS STRANDED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD WITH SIX QUARTS OF OIL ALL OVER THE MOTOR, TRANS, EXHAUST AND GROUND.

WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE, WHICH WAS 3 DAYS NEW TO US, EXHIBITED THE CLASSIC JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. THE VEHICLE STARTED TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE FROM SIDE TO SIDE AND ONLY STOPPED ONCE THE BRAKE WAS ACTIVATED. THIS HAPPENED 4 TIMES BEFORE THE ALIGNMENT WAS RIGHTED AND A PART REPLACED.

DID OIL AND FILTER CHANGE AT THE DEALERSHIP. I GOT ON THE FREEWAY AND LOOKED AT MY REAR WINDOW WHEN I SAW SMOKE. DID NOT THINK OF IT MUCH SINCE I FIGURED ITS THE OLD OIL BURNING. DROVE FOR A GOOD 2-3 MILES AND IT WAS GETTING WORSE. PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE AND A LOT OF SMOKE GOT INSIDE THE VEHICLE. GOT OUT AND THE OIL WAS DRAINING OVER THE MUFFLER, TRANSMISSION COVER THAT WAS CAUSING THE SMOKE. I THOUGHT THEY FORGOT TO PUT THE SCREW BACK ON OR THE OIL FILTER LOOSE. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TOLD THEM WHAT HAPPENED AND CALLED A TOW TRUCK. ONCE AT THE DEALERSHIP, WAS TOLD BY THE TECH THAT IT MIGHT OF BEEN THE OIL COOLER THAT WAS DRAINING OR GOT CRACKED, HE SAID THAT THIS IS PRETTY COMMON. I CHECKED ONLINE FOR RECALLS BUT DID NOT FIND ANY BUT I DID NOTICE A LOT OF JEEP FORUMS ONLINE THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL YR. THIS COULD BE A FIRE HAZARD WITH ALL THAT OIL DRAINING ON THE MUFFLER AND THE ENGINE. BAD DESIGN OVERALL! I EVEN KNOW THAT, IT DOESN'T TAKE A GENIUS TO FIGURE THAT OUT, ITS COMMON SENSE. MAKING PARKS WITH PLASTIC PIPES? BY THE ENGINE AND IN A HOT AREA? IT MIGHT BE TO SAVE MONEY IN PARTS BUT I AM PAYING ON A $40000 JEEP. GOT THE PART 68105583AA REPLACED WITH 68105583AE. HOPEFULLY THIS GOT MOTIFIED.

ON 5/6/16 I WENT TO START MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON AND THE ENGINE DID NOT MAKE A NOISE BUT THE DASH LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE. THE WINDOWS HAD POWER AND RADIO WORKED BUT THE DOOR LOCK OR ALARM DID NOT WORK. I TOWED IT TO THE DEALER AND WAS ADVISED THAT IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM AND WAS CALLED THE "TIPM MODULE" WHICH IS BASICALLY THE ENTIRE FUSE BOX AND PART OF THE COMPUTER. I WAS STUCK THERE IN NORTH CAROLINA FROM MARYLAND FOR FOUR EXRA DAYS. NOW AFTER GETTING BACK HOME TO MARYLAND ON 6/5/16 I GO TO TRY AND ACCELORATE ONTO THE HIGHWAY FROM A RAMP AND THE TRANSMISSION REVS TO 5,500 RPM BUT THE JEEP WILL NOT ACCELERATE. I HAVE TO EASE OFF THE GAS AND LET IT ACCELERATE VERY SLOWLY. THANK GOD NO TRUCKS WERE COMING OR IT COULD HAVE BEED AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION CONSIDERING IT WAS INTERSTATE 95 BY 175 WHERE SEMI TRUCKS GO TO THE TA TRUCK STOP.

AFTER ONLY 2 YEARS OF HIGHWAY DRIVING MY 2014 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED STARTED LEAKING OIL. I TOOK IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE OIL COOLER WAS FAILING AND LEAKING. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE "STANDARD" OIL FILTER THAT HAD BEEN INSTALLED AT MY LAST OIL CHANGE (WHICH WAS DONE AT A REPUTABLE FACILITY) WAS THICKER AND BETTER THAN THE FILTER CHRYSLER USES. THIS THICKER, BETTER FILTER APPARENTLY CAUSES OIL PRESSURE TO INCREASE IN ORDER FOR THE ENGINE TO MOVE THE OIL THRU THIS FILTER. A QUICK SEARCH ONLINE FOUND MULTIPLE OTHER ACCOUNTS OF THE SAME PART FAILING. THE REPAIR WAS COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY BUT I WAS TOLD THAT IF I USE ANY OIL FILTER OTHER THAN THE ONE THEY SELL THAT IF ANOTHER FAILURE OCCURS IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION WILL DOWNSHIFT TO 2 OR 3 AND NOT UP SHIFT. REQUIRES STOPPING VEHICLE, TURNING OFF ENGINE AND RESTARTING TO RETURN TO NORMAN OPERATION. THIS HAPPENED 6 TIMES IN 1 DAY ON 400 MILE TRIP. HAPPENED WHILE PASSING 18 WHEELER ON A 2 LANE ROAD. WHEN IT HAPPENS IT WILL NOT ACCELERATE. 3 VIDEOS WERE PROVIDED TO THE DEALERSHIP SHOWING THE OCCURRENCE. DOES NOT SET ANY CODES.

WE HAD NOTICED AN OIL LEAK WHICH WAS CAUSING SMOKE & TERRIBLE SMELL. LUCKILY NO FIRE. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WE PURCHASED IT FROM, AND THEY REFUSED TO COVER REPAIR CITING THAT THE VEHICLE WAS SERVICED ELSEWHERE, THEREFORE IT WAS NOT THEIR FAULT. WE HAD IT REMOVED FROM THERE AND TOOK IT TO ANOTHER LOCAL DEALER, WHO ACKNOWLEDGED SAID PROBLEM AND REPAIRED THE JEEP UNDER WARRANTY. (DEFECTIVE OIL FILTER HOUSING ASSEMBLY). THIS APPEARS TO BE A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM, AND DESPITE THE FACT THAT THIS IS A 2014 VEHICLE, THE COMPLAINTS SEEM TO BE EXCESSIVE. THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT THE DEALER WE BOUGHT IT FROM DELIBERATELY TRIED TO BLAME SOMEONE ELSE EVEN THOUGH IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE POTENTIALLY RESULTING IN INJURY AND/OR DEATH. THIS COULD HAVE EASILY CAUGHT ON FIRE. WE ARE LUCKY. DOCUMENTATION, REPAIR INVOICES TO FOLLOW IF NEEDED.

CRACKED OIL FILTER HOUSING. VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY FOR 5 DAYS AND UPON RETURN I NOTICED A PUDDLE OF OIL UNDER THE BELL HOUSING. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS ROUGHLY 20,000 MILES ON IT SO I SUSPECTED A REAR MAIN SEAL ISSUE. UPON INSPECTION BY MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP IT WAS FOUND TO BE A CRACKED OIL FILTER HOUSING. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT COULD LEAVE DRIVERS STRANDED AND COULD POSE SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS.
