Safety recall n28/the federal safety agency 13v‑234 - transmission oil cooler tube when I contacted my local dealer about scheduling this recall work, I was told that chrysler was only shipping 1 replacement part per week to the dealer and they were creating a first-come, first-served list to complete the recall work. Chrysler claims to be "sincerely concerned about your safety", yet they can't provide enough replacement parts to ensure the recall work is done in a timely manner!!!
2013 Jeep Wrangler transmission complaints
Page 9 of 9: complaints 221 to 230 of 230, newest first, as owners wrote them.
While backing out of a parking space, I was moving the shifter to reverse and heard a clunk sound. It was not a smooth shift. Immediately the check engine light came on. I backed the vehicle out of space and move the automatic shifter to drive and heard another clunking noise. The check engine light stayed on. As I tried to pick up speed the transmission would not shift and the RPM's went higher and higher. We drove the car up to 40 MPH and the transmission would not shift. So we decided to take the car home and not operate the vehicle as the transmission was not shifting properly or not at all.

I was informed of safety recall n28 / the federal safety agency 13v‑234 back in july of 2013 . I called jeep directly in order to resolve this recall only to be told there are no parts available at that time.. I called jeep & my local dealer in august 2013 & still no parts nor a response time... It is now sept 30, 2013 & I am still being told no updates on when parts will become available... This is extremely concerning & at the same time disturbing ..

2013 jeep wrangler rubicon, caught fire after coming off of a highway. Traveling under 30 MPH, I saw flames underneath the jeep behind me ( my friends jeep ). By the time I noticed it was a ball of flame. I immidiately slamed on the brakes and waved him down. He could barely stop because his brakes also went out( he said the ABS light flipped on) my other friend jumped out of the vehicle I was traveling in and attempted help said friend in the wrangler. Same friend had a giant bucket of water in his bed of the truck I was driving. I grabbed it and ran to the wrangler. I looked underneath the jeep, the flames were smaller and I could see that the origin was on top of the transmission. There was nothing I could do, I didn't have a cup or a device to scoop water to put the fire out. At this time I realized that this was a form of chemical fire. So water would have made it worse. We evacuated the area since it was so close to the gas tank. I called the on base cops and the fire trucks were there within 10. At this time the interrior was on fire, they attemped to put the fire out but the gas tank had ruptured. About 8 gallons of gas was on its way out of the tank. It took 2, 000 gallons, 2 trucks, 6 fire extuinguishers, and an unknown refill of water from another water truck to both fire trucks to put the fire out! I have 90% of everything on video. Including the after affects!
