Garavel Chrysler Jeep Dodge 300 Westport Ave Norwalk, CT 06851 Jeep Wrangler Sahara 2015 06/12/2025-06/13/2025 & 06/192025 - Chris Riordan (Service advisor) & Rich Morel (Service Manager) 203‑845‑8040 My daughter was driving the Jeep and noticed the brake pedal was intermittently sinking to the floor, she brought it to the dealership where Chris Riordan (Service advisor) immediately diagnosed the common problem with the 2015 jeep Wrangler of caliper freeze up and hose replacement. knowing this issue they still let her drive the vehicle home with a known hazardous defect, The vehicle was dropped off for repair on 06/12/2025. later in the day we were notified that the mechanic upon re-installing one of the caliper bolts broke off the head of one of the bolts and they had to order one and it would be installed 06/13/2025, My daughter was there in the morning to pick up the vehicle only to find out it was not ready and that it needed to be test driven not once but twice ?? My daughter then drove on the highway home to pick up two children she was babysitting ,while pulling up to a friend's house she was told there was a grinding and scraping noise coming from the front left rim, we then told her not to drive the vehicle. At that a friend's mechanic removed the wheel and found the bolt missing that was supposedly ordered and installed with two test drives, so the caliper was flopping around off the rotor putting my child's life in danger. Our mechanic renewed the bolt and properly bled the brakes that Garavel’s mechanic failed to do also, What he also found was a front axle seal leak and a defective tie rod. Garavels service department failed at every possible level

Distracting grind and severe gearshift vibration during the 1st gear to 2nd gear up shift. It appears as though the gear shift lever will violently come off. The grinding is extremely distracting to the driver as gears moving at different speeds come violently to stop as opposed smoothly meshing together. The shifting operation produces a sensation that reverberates up the hand and arm causing a distracting jolt to the driver. At this time, all the other up shifts are normal, making the 1st to 2nd gear up shift asymmetrically different than all the other up shifts. This happens regularly regardless of ambient temperature, grade, or fast, slow, or rapid shifting making the vehicle a nuisance and a safety hazard to drive.

2015 jeep wrangler, in motion, traveling straight, on highway (roads were wet from recent rain) & approaching traffic signal at major intersection. Signal changed from green to yellow. I pushed the the brake pedal to slow down. The vehicle did not respond, the jeep did not slow down. The jeep continued traveling straight. I pushed the brake pedal at least two more times, down to the floor. The brakes did not respond. There was a very loud "grinding" noise coming from the jeep when I applied the brake pedal. The vehicle continued into the intersection where it came to a stop. The brakes did not slow this vehicle down, the brakes did not work! There was no control of this vehicle's speed. Dealership service dept. Checked out this jeep the next day & found no problem with this jeep & could not duplicate concern. When I later drove the jeep home, the ABS light came on. Fca, chrysler customer care was notified. Chrysler assigned a case number & case manager. The case manager informed me that she called the service/dealership (who serviced the jeep the day after the event) and she was told by the service mgr. "jeep is operating perfectly & is up to my satisfaction". I informed chrysler, via phone & email, that that was not the case at all! I sent chrysler a written, detailed report of exactly what occurred with this vehicle. I also stated that this incident could have ended very differently, with injuries and or death! I never heard from chrysler again. As of today, chrysler has not returned any of my phone messages.
