2006 Jeep Wrangler

WHILE DRIVING @ 55-60 MPH AND APPLYING THE BRAKES MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER SHAKES LIKE IT IS GOING TO FALL APART. IT HAS LESS THAN 12000 MILES ON IT AND THIS IS THE 2ND PAIR OF ROTORS WITHIN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME, AROUND 3 MONTHS. NOW I'M TOLD BY THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT THAT ITS MY DRIVING STYLE, THAT I SHOULD DOWN SHIFT TO MAKE IT EASIER ON THE BRAKES. WHICH I ALREADY DO DOWN SHIFT. THE REPAIR WAS TAKEN CARE OF FREE OF CHARGE BECAUSE OF THE SHORT PERIOD OF TIME BETWEEN THE ROTOR CHANGES. BUT, THAT THE NEXT TIME I WILL HAVE TO PAY FOR IT!! LET ME TELL YOU THAT I'M PISSED!!! THIS IS BULL &*$# AND I'M NOT GOING TO BE PUSHED OVER AND TOLD ITS THE WAY I DRIVE, WHEN ITS APPARENT THAT THERE IS SOMETHING ELSE CAUSING THE PROBLEM. FUNNY, I DON'T NEED BRAKE PADS BUT THE ROTORS KEEP $%&IN' UP...A DEFECT OR WHAT. EXCUSE MY LANGUAGE BUT, I'M A 43 YEAR OLD WOMAN THAT DOESN'T WANT TO BE JERKED AROUND BY MY SERVICE DEPT. AND TOLD ITS MY DRIVING STYLE! I WANT SOMETHING DONE ABOUT IT. I ONLY LEASE THIS VEHICLE AND IF I COULD GIVE IT BACK TODAY...I WOULD!!! I ALSO INTEND TO E-MAIL CHRYSLER ABOUT THIS ALSO. CD UPDATED 01-16-08. *KB UPDATED

MY WIFE AND I WERE ON A TRIP IN OUR 2006 WRANGLER (WITH 10,802 MILES ON IT),IT WAS VERY COLD THIS NIGHT AND WINDOWS WERE FOGGING UP. WE TURNED ON THE DEFROSTER FOR THE FIRST TIME AND WITHIN A MINUTE OUR WINDSHIELD CRACKED. I CALLED OUR LOCAL DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT MY WARRANTY DID NOT COVER THIS ITEM AND I HAD TO PAY THEM TO REPLACE MY WINDOW. I LATER FOUND OUT IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED. 12 MONTH OR 12,000 MILES. I THINK THEY MIGHT HAVE A SAFETY ISSUE WIT THIS SO MORE PEOPLE NEED TO COMPLAIN. *TR

BRAND NEW, 2006 JEEP WRANGLER 4X4, LESS THAN 5,000 MILES ON IT WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD (FIRST INCIDENT,50 MPH), ENGINE STALLS. TRY TO RESTART...PULL OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, WAIT ABOUT 5 MINUTES, AND THE JEEP FINALLY RESTARTS. SECOND INCIDENT, DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC, MIDDLE LANE, APPROXIMATELY 70 MILES PER HOUR, JEEP ENGINE STALLS AGAIN. LOSS OF ALL POWER, STEERING COMPONENTS, NO DASHBOARD LIGHTS OR CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS FLASH. JUST COMPLETE AND TOTAL LOSS OF POWER. ALMOST GET REAR-ENDED BY SEVERAL CARS BEFORE MANAGING TO GET THE JEEP OFF ON THE SHOULDER. SAT ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FOR 45 MINUTES BEFORE THE JEEP WOULD RESTART. FIRST DEALERSHIP I TOOK IT TO REFUSED TO LOOK AT IT BECAUSE I DIDN'T HAVE AN APPOINTMENT, AND SAID THEY COULD GET TO IT IN A WEEK OR SO. I TOLD THEM I DIDN'T HAVE AN APPOINTMENT BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS GOING TO DIE, AND SECONDLY I WASN'T DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT WAS UNSAFE AND I DIDN'T KNOW WHAT WAS WRONG WITH IT. I WAS THEN REFERRED TO ANOTHER DEALERSHIP, WHERE THE TECHNICIAN STATED HE WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE DEFECT...SO NOTHING HAS BEEN FIXED AND I'M STILL DRIVING AN UNSAFE CAR. *JB

WINDSHIELD CRACKED WHILE DRIVING WITHOUT ANY EXTERNAL FORCES, DEALER CLAIMS STRESS FRACTURE, MANUFACTURE REFUSES TO REPLACE DUE TO MILEAGE OVER 12,000, VEHICLE IS A LITTLE OVER 14,000 MILES AND ONLY ONE YEAR OLD. THIS A SAFETY ISSUE DUE TO MANUFACTURES DEFECT THAT SHOULD BE REPLACED REGARDLESS OF MILEAGE ON VEHICLE. IN THE PROCESS TO REPLACE WINDSHIELD AS SOON AS POSSIBLE, VEHICLE BEING USED ONLY IN EMERGENCY IF NEEDED!!*JB

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, THE VEHICLE LOST POWER WITHOUT WARNING. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED IMMEDIATELY AFTERWARDS AND THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO JERK VIOLENTLY. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO HIS RESIDENCE WHERE IT FAILED TO RESTART. THERE IS A RECALL ON THE 2007 JEEP WRANGLER REGARDING THE ENGINE. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER. THE RECALL NUMBER WAS UNKNOWN. THE CURRENT MILEAGE IS 18,600 AND FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,588.

THE PROBLEMS FIST STARTED AROUND 3,000. MILES. IT STARTED PINGING ( METAL TO METAL SOUND ) BETWEEN SHIFTING GEARS. WHEN I FIRST TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME IT WAS NORMAL AND NOTHING TO WORRY ABOUT. LESS THAN A MONTH LATER IT WAS BACK IN THE SHOP FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. THEN THEY SAID THEY WERE GOING TO HAVE TO REPLACE THE CLUTCH, BECAUSE IT WAS WEAK, AND THE PRESSURE PLATE. I JUST HAD IT IN THE SHOP YESTERDAY FOR THE SAME PINGING SOUNDS AGAIN, ALL OVER AGAIN. AND WAS TOLD, IT WAS FINE, DRIVE IT ANY WAY YOU LIKE. SO NOW I'M EXPECTING TO HAVE TO GO BACK ONCE AGAIN IN A MONTH TO HAVE THE SAME REPAIRS, AND MY JEEP ONLY HAS 5,700 MILES ON IT. *JB
