I HAVE GONE THROUGH OVER 4 SETS OF MUD TERRAIN TIRES OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS THAT ARE UNEVENLY WORN AND NO ONE KNEW WHY. MOST RECENTLY, THE REAR RIGHT TIRE HAD A SIDEWALL GASH AND HAD A FLAT TIRE, WE BEGAN SMELLING SMOKE AND ENDED UP TAKING THE JEEP INTO BRAKEMASTERS AND WAS TOLD THE ENTIRE REAR DIFFERENTIAL WAS FAILING AND FALLING APART. WE HAD THE REAR DIFF REPLACED, BRAKES, ROTORS AND PAID $5000 OUT OF POCKET AND AS I WAS DRIVING FROM HOME TO TUCSON THE OTHER DAY TO MY MATERNITY APPOINTMENT, THE BACK RIGHT TIRE BEGAN SCREECHING WHILE NOT BRAKING AND BEGAN SIZZLING AND BURNING WITH OIL COMING OUT FROM THE TIRE. I IMMEDIATELY STOPPED AT THE NEAREST BRAKEMASTERS AND THEY SAID THAT AN ENTIRELY NEW REAR DIFFERENTIAL IS NEEDED. NOT ONLY COULD THE JEEP HAVE CAUGHT ON FIRE WITH THIS SAFETY ISSUE BUT I KEPT LOSING CONTROL OF THE STEERING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY WITH A 2 YEAR OLD AND ONE ON THE WAY. I AM HOPING TO SEE SOME SORT OF RESOLUTION ON THIS AND TO BE COMMUNICATED WITH OTHER JEEP OWNERS OF THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

BRAKES SEIZED UP WITH ONLY 37,000 MILES. IT REQUIRED A FULL FRONTAL BRAKE REBUILD. THE MECHANICS SAID THIS SHOULDN'T HAVE HAPPENED WITH SUCH LOW MILEAGE AND YEAR. BECAUSE THEY WERE "SEIZED" UP, IT CAUSED EVERYTHING TO HEAT UP AND RUINED THE CALIPERS, PAD AND ROTARS. IT WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE WHEN WE TOOK IT IN TO THE MECHANIC.

THE BRAKES KEEP GETTING LOCKED UP. I"VE HAD THE CAR SINCE MAY 2020 AND HAVE HAD THE CAR TOWED TWICE AND THE FRONT AND BACK BRAKES DONE TWICE AS WELL. NOT TO MENTION, TODAY I HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED AGAIN AND STILL DONT KNOW WHAT THE "FIX" WILL COST

THE JEEP WRANGLER HAS 37K MILES AND THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE BREAK CALIBER LOCKED UP. WHEN THIS FIRST OCCURRED/IDENTIFIED THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY DOING 70 MPH. WHEN BREAKING THE JEEP MADE A STRONG PULL TO THE RIGHT ALMOST SENDING THE VEHICLE OFF THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD..

NHTSA ODI 11373773

WHEN I CRANK MY VEHICLE AND PLACE IT IN DRIVE THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON AND THE BREAKING SYSTEM BEGINS TO LOCK DOWN THE BRAKES AND CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO JERK TO A STOP. THIS IS HAPPENING WHILE I AM ON THE PUBLIC ROADWAY. THE DOWNHILL BREAKING ENGAGES WHEN ALL OF THIS IS GOING ON. SOMETIMES IT WILL CLEAR ITSELF OFF AND THE VEHICLE OPERATES NORMALLY TILL THE NEXT DAY.

2016 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT WITH ONLY 20,000 MILES HAS, FOR SECOND TIME IN ONE YEAR, A FAULTY ESC SYSTEM AND IT MALFUNCTIONS CAUSING THE BRAKE SYSTEM TO ACTIVATE, LOSS OF POWER, AND SUDDEN STEERING CHANGES. NISSAN BROTHERS HAD SUPPOSEDLY FIXED THIS ISSUE THE FIRST TIME...

IN LAST 4 YEARS OR SO OF OWNERSHIP THE REAR BRAKES HAVE GONE BAD TWICE. SERVICE WAS PERFORMED AT FAIR OAKS JEEP DODGE RAM IN CHANTILLY, VA. THIS SEEMS EXCESSIVE. REPORTING IN CASE OTHERS ARE EXPERIENCING SAME ISSUES.

WHILE BRAKING TO SLOW MY VEHICLE DOWN TO PULL INTO A PARKING SPACE IN FRONT OF A LAUNDROMAT, THE BRAKES WOULD NOT ENGAGE FOR THE PURPOSE OF MAKING A COMPLETE STOP WHEN EMPLOYED; INSTEAD THE JEEP UNEXPECTEDLY ACCELERATED AND LAUNCHED FORWARD INTO THE FRONT DOOR OF THE LAUNDROMAT, STRIKING THE WALL THEREOF AND A WASHING MACHINE ,WHEREFORE MY AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AT ANYTIME.

WITHIN THE PAST 6 MONTHS I HAVE HAD TO REPAIR TWO ABS SENSORS, ONE IN THE FRONT AND ONE IN THE REAR. THIS LAST SENSOR BLOWOUT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS STOPPING AT A LIGHT. I HEARD A GRINDING SOUND AND FELT THE VIBRATION IN THE BREAK PEDDLE AS I TRIED TO STOP. THE JEEP THEN WOULDN'T ACCELERATE PROPERLY AFTER I GOT IT STOPPED AS I TRIED TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I HAD A PROBLEM MOVING THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD AS THE ABS KEPT KICKING IN AND GRINDING ME TO A STOP. THE MECHANIC SAID THAT THE SENSOR WAS HAVING A ISSUE PICKING UP THE SPEED OF THE TIRES. MY JEEP WRANGLER SPORT IS A 2016 4 DOOR MODEL, IT SPENT 2017 IN A STORAGE AND I BOUGHT IT LATE 2016. IT CURRENTLY HAS 68795 MILES ON IT. IN THE 2 1/2 YEARS I HAVE HAD THIS ON THE ROAD I'VE REPLACED TWO ABS SENSORS, HAD IT IN THE SHOP FOR MISFIRING AND MY AC UNITS BLOWER MOTOR SEEMS TO BE FAILING. AS A COMPARISON, I HAVE A 2010 DODGE CHALLENGER THAT HAS BEEN IN FOR LESS REPAIRS.

THE FIRST INCIDENCE, THE ANTI LOCK BRAKES SEIZED WHILE DRIVING ON A DRY EVENING AT A SPEED OF ABOUT 25MPH CAUSING THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME TO NEARLY COLLIDE AND FORCING US BOTH OFF THE ROAD. I HAD IT LOOKED AT BH A MECHANIC AND HE FOUND NOTHING SO SAID TO BRING IT BACK NEXT TIME IT HAPPENS. THE VEHICLE WAS FINE FOR A WEEK AND THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN FROM THE DRIVEWAY. IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES ON THE ROAD NEARLY CAUSING AN ACCIDENT AND SEVERAL OTHER TIMES FORCING DRIVERS BEHIND ME TO PASS. I FIND IT HAPPENS IN THE FIRST MILE OR 2 AFTER STARTING A DRIVE AND THEN IS OK. I BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC AND HE SUGGESTED REPLACE ALL OF THE ELECTRICAL MODULES ASSOCIATED WITH BRAKES AND REPLACE THE BRAKES AND PADS SINCE THE SEIZING OF THE ABS HAS CAUSED PREMATURE WEAR OF THE BRAKES. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHERS BUT CANNOT AFFORD $1300 REPAIR ESPECIALLY IF IT SHOULD BE COVERED UNDER SAFETY RECALL.

IMMEDIATELY AFTER ENTERING THE ROADWAY (RIGHT TURN) AND AT APPROXIMATELY 5 MPH THE BRAKES APPLIED WITHOUT WARNING OR HUMAN INTERVENTION. WHEN THIS SITUATION OCCURRED 2 DASH WARNING LIGHTS APPEARED, THE 'ESC ACTIVATED' AND THE 'ABS'LIGHT ACTIVATED. THIS CREATES AN UNEXPECTED SITUATION FOR THOSE VEHICLES TRAVELING BEHIND AND NOT EXPECTING THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF THEM TO SUDDENLY BRAKE. JEEP HAS INDICATED THE FAILURE OF A WHEEL SPEED SENSOR TO BE THE CAUSE OF THIS SUDDEN BRAKING.

NHTSA ODI 11271008

THE FRONT RIGHT BRAKE STARTED STICKING AND PULLING THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE. IT ALSO CAUSED A SQUELLING SOUND AND EXCESSIVE HEAT FROM THE WHEEL. THIS WOULD RECTIFY ITSELF BUT THE BRAKES FELT WEAKER FOR STOPPING THIS HAPPENED OFF AND ON FOR A FEW DAYS . WE TOOK TO A LOCAL GARAGE BECAUSE IT WAS DANGEROUS PARTIALLY LOSING CONTROL. HE FOUND THE PROBLEM TO BE A COLLAPSED BRAKE LINE. WE BOUGHT THE JEEP BRAND NEW AND IT IS ONLY 3 YEARS OLD WITH 39000 MILES. HE SAID THE BRAKE LINE WAS EITHER DEFECTIVE AND OR JUST A CHEAP PART. IT WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION LOSING PARTIAL CONTROL. IT ALSO RUINED THE BRAKE PAD AND ROTOR DO TO GLAZING.

THE SPEED SENSOR FOR THE FRONT BRAKES ON MY 2016 JEEP WRANGLER FAILED AND LED TO COSTLY REPAIRS. THE BRAKES LOCKED UP SO BAD THEY STALLED THE JEEP WHEN I LET OUT THE CLUTCH. THE JEEP LITERALLY SLAMMED ON IT'S OWN BRAKES IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC WITHOUT ME HAVING APPLIED THE BRAKES. THE BRAKE LIGHTS OF COURSE DID NOT COME ON AND I NEARLY HAD AN ACCIDENT. THE REPAIR COST $1200. THE JEEP DEALER TOLD ME "THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM".

WHILE MAKING A LEFT TURN AT A T-INTERSECTION, FROM A FULL STOP, ACROSS ON-COMING TRAFFIC PASSING LEFT TO RIGHT ON A TWO-LANE ROAD, I PRESSED THE ACCELERATOR. JEEP BEGAN ROLLING FORWARD INTO THE INTERSECTION WHEN ANTI-LOCK BRAKES INITIATED WITHOUT ANY DEPRESSION OF BRAKE PEDAL, SLOWING ACCELERATION TO AN IDLE COAST. I DEPRESSED ACCELERATOR TO FLOOR, BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT RESPOND AND CONTINUED TO COAST THROUGH THE INTERSECTION. WE COULD FEEL THE ABS WEAKLY GRABBING AND LETTING GO, AND THERE WAS A GRINDING NOISE COMING FROM THE FRONT WHEELS. THE CAUTION TONE SOUNDED AND THE JEEP DISPLAYED AN ABS CAUTION LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL CAUTION LIGHT. WE COASTED ACROSS THE INTERSECTION AND PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, VERY NARROWLY AVOIDING A SIDE-IMPACT COLLISION WITH ON-COMING TRAFFIC FROM OUR LEFT AND A REAR-IMPACT COLLISION WITH TRAFFIC COMING FROM OUR REAR. OBDII SCANNER SHOWS REAR ABS SPEED SENSOR BAD. INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS MANY SAME OR SIMILAR INCIDENTS WITH JEEPS AT APPROXIMATELY 40,000-50,000 MILES. JEEP HAS APPROXIMATELY 43,000 MILES.

MY ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON AND OFF PLUS THE HILL DESCENT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING RANDOMLY THEN THE DESCENT CONTROL STARTS. I ALSO HAVE HAD THE BRAKES START SURGING ON AND OFF AND THE ENGINE WANT TO CUT OFF OR STOP FUEL. THEN THE LIGHTS GO OFF NO CODES TO CHECK THEN AND EVERYTHING IS ALRIGHT. THE FUEL CUTTING OFF AND THE BRAKES SURGING WAS FROM A STOP ON A SIDE STREET

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHEN THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO RANCHO CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (8010 BALBOA AVE, SAN DIEGO, CA 92111, (858) 560-7100) FOR AN OIL CHANGE, HE WAS NOTIFIED THAT THE BRAKE ROTORS AND PADS NEEDED TO BE FILED DOWN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE SAME DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING, BUT NO REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE REPAIRED FOR THE SAME FAILURE A YEAR AGO. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,626.

NHTSA ODI 11163796

VEHICLE NOTIFIED IT HAD A FAULT IN THE ABS/ESC SYSTEM VIA THE YELLOW WARNING LIGHTS ILLUMINATING ON THE DASH. OCCURRED AFTER STARTING THE CAR AFTER SITTING OVERNIGHT. VEHICLE DROVE NORMALLY AT FIRST AND ASSUMED THIS INDICATED THE SYSTEMS HAD A FAULT AND WERE THUS DISABLED. HOWEVER, VEHICLE STARTED TO LOSE POWER, STUMBLE, AND NOT ACCELERATE WHEN MOVING FROM DEAD STOP. INCLUDING STOP LIGHTS, STOP SIGNS, CROSSING DIVIDED HIGHWAYS AND INTERSECTIONS--TURNING AND STRAIGHT TRAVEL. PAVEMENT CONDITIONS WERE DRY/LEVEL, NO WHEEL SPIN OCCURRED. 3 OCCASIONS OVER 2 DAYS RESULTED IN NEAR ACCIDENTS. ONCE AFTER TURNING RIGHT FROM A STOP SIGN, ACCELERATING THROUGH FIRST GEAR AND REAR BRAKES BEGIN TO CYCLE WHILE POWER IS CUT FROM ENGINE. CAR BEHIND HAD TO SWERVE AROUND SO AS NOT TO COLLIDE. NO WARNING OR INDICATION THAT THIS WOULD HAPPEN. NEXT EVENT WAS CROSSING 2 LANE DIVIDED HIGHWAY FROM CENTER TURN LANE. AGAIN SUDDEN AND UNEXPECTED LOSS OF POWER AND BRAKING AUTOMATICALLY APPLIED TO REAR WHEELS. LESSER EVENTS HAVE OCCURRED AS WELL. VEHICLE THINKS IT NEEDS TO ENGAGE THE ESC SYSTEM. I ARGUE THAT THE ESC SYSTEM SHOULD GO INACTIVE WHEN A FAULT IS DETECTED, NOT CUT POWER AND AUTO APPLY BRAKES DURING NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS. THIS IS A SOFTWARE PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE UPDATED (QUALITY OF THE COMPONENTS NOT WITHSTANDING). THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN FOR ME AS THE CAR IS UN-DRIVEABLE, EVEN TO DEALER FOR REPAIR. MOREOVER, EVEN AFTER REPAIR THE FAULT STILL "LIVES" WITHIN THE CAR SHOULD IT HAVE A SIMILAR COMPONENT FAIL IN THE SYSTEM. CONTACTED DEALER TO ARRANGE REPAIR, VEHICLE HAS 40,600 MILES (NEVER OFF ROAD). DEALER STATED IT IS LIKELY A REAR WHEEL SPEED SENSOR, COMMON FAILURE, NOT UNDER WARRANTY, AND CONFIRMED THAT THIS WAS COMMON BEHAVIOR FOR THIS TYPE FAILURE. CONTACTED FCA ON ISSUE AND LOGGED CASE, CLAIM THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS, COULD NOT EXPLAIN.

WHILE DRIVING IN NORMAL CITY CONDITIONS THE "ESC" LIGHT ILLUMINATED FOLLOWED BY THE "ABS" WARNING AND THE "HILL DECENT CONTROL" FLASHING. I WAS NEARLY AT MY INTENDED DESTINATION SO I CONTINUED THEN PARKED AT MY DESTINATION. ONCE I FINISHED WITH MY BUSINESS, I STARTED THE VEHICLE AND NOTED THE "ESC" AND "ABS" LIGHTS ON STEADY, AS I TURNED RIGHT ONTO THE CITY ROADWAY THE "ESC" STARTED FLASHING AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, RPM'S DECREASED, BUT THE ENGINE DID NOT STALL. I EASED OFF THE ACCELERATOR AND IT SEEMED TO STABILIZE, THEN AS APPLIED THE ACCELERATOR AGAIN, SAME THING, VEHICLE HESITATED AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. I TURNED RIGHT, OFF THE ROADWAY, ONTO A SIDE STREET AT WHICH TIME THE "ESC" AND "ABS" LIGHTS EXTINGUISHED AND THE NORMAL OPERATION RETURNED. THE ENTIRE SCENARIO OCCURRED TWO MORE TIMES DURING THE NEXT 3 MILES OF CITY STOP AND GO DRIVING, AFTER WHICH THE "ESC" AND "ABS" LIGHTS REMAINED ON STEADY AND THE VEHICLE NO LONGER HAD ACCELERATION ISSUES. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE HOME SAFELY WITH THE "ESC" AND "ABS" ILLUMINATED STEADILY. PLAN TO TAKE TO WARRANTY REPAIR FACILITY, SUSPECT FAULTY WHEEL SPEED SENSOR, BUT UNABLE TO KNOW WHICH WHEEL SENSOR HAS FAILED.

VEHICLE HAS EXHIBITED MULTIPLE OCCURRENCES OF RAPID ACCELERATION ONCE THE BRAKE PEDAL IS RELEASED. WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, THE ENGINE LIGHT AND THE ENGINE CONTROLLER LIGHT WILL SUDDENLY COME ON AND THE VEHICLE WILL SEEM TO LOOSE POWER. APPLYING THE BREAK TO SLOW THE VEHICLE DOES NOT SEEM TO HELP AS THE VEHICLE WILL BEGIN TO ACCELERATE BACK UP TO DRIVING SPEED ONCE THE BRAKE PEDAL IS RELEASED (ALMOST LIKE WHEN THE CRUISE CONTROL RENEGADES. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKE TO THE JEEP DEALER WHERE'RE THEY RESET THE CODE SEVERAL TIMES AND RELEARNED THE PEDAL POSITION SENSOR WITH A FIRMWARE REBOOT. THIS HAS NOT FIXED THE ISSUE AND JEEP IS NOT ABLE TO IDENTIFY THE CAUSE. THIS PROBLEM CAN CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AS THE VEHICLE HAS SUDDENLY ACCELERATED UP TO 30-35 MPH WHEN TURNING INTO PARKING LOTS OR AWAY FROM STOP SIGNS. THIS ALSO HAPPENS WHEN IN PUTTING THE VEHICLE IN REVERSE.
