Factory installed Corning Gorilla Glass became marred and scratched from windshield wiper during rain fall. Glass also developed a crack in the right lower corner of the glass from unknown source (not a stone or road hazard). I requested the repair be covered under the original factory warranty and the repair was rejected. Per the dealership the glass is covered for 24/24 if NOT factory installed. It's covered for 12/12 if it IS factory installed. My windshield is factory installed and out of the 12/12 but still would have been covered under the 24/24 warranty otherwise. I see a lot of complaints about the Corning Gorilla windshields failing.

Occasionally, the head unit of my vehicle becomes inoperable. I am unable to change radio stations, view climate control information, and the back-up camera is inoperable (which is a safety concern) while the head unit is in this state. When completely shutting down the ignition of the vehicle and allowing it to sit for roughly 30 minutes the head unit will operate as intended and all functionality is restored. This issue has occurred about 4 times on my Jeep Gladiator.

While driving, vehicle completely shuts off. No electrical, No brakes, No steering. Almost ran off curvy road. Vehicle stays in drive with no electronics. Major safety issue. Have appointment with dealer next week. However this could have been serious. After sitting I was able to push the start button and it finally came back on. Then 100 feet down the road it stalled and blacked out again. This time I disconnected the battery, reconnected it and got it one mile to my home. Something is seriously dangerous. I tried to drive it today and it occurred a third time. Dealer wants me to drive it in but not sure how to handle this.

Our 2024 Jeep Gladiator caught fire under the hood. It is a total loss and my partner was in the vehicle when this happened. He'd just arrived to his destination and was incredibly close to be driving when this happened. This happened by another parked vehicle. This is still under investigation by our insurance and they've determined a cause. We had JUST had our battery replaced by the dealership as it was shorting out. After the incident we discovered this has happened to others as well. It's incredibly frustrating as this was our very first new car purchase and has put great fear into trusting we're safe. Not to mention the disruption and stress it's caused us because of this daily.
