2019 Jeep Wrangler: transmission slipping

Filed Sep 17, 2023 · Transmission · IN

We started experiencing a problem with our clutch on our manual transmission 2019 Jeep Wrangler Sport in December 2022. It felt like it would slip out of gear on its own, sounded like when someone first learns how to drive a manual and grinds the clutch. The dealer couldn't figure it out. Kept getting worse. Multiple trips back to the dealer. Mind you at the time this car was 3 1/2 years old and only had about 40,000 miles. Finally we found out there was a recall in February 2023, and the dealer told us there were no parts or no solution yet. This car is my wife's daily driver. I called the dealer back a couple months later, no update yet, Jeep "was working on it", hoped remedy would be available by end of June. Kept calling back every month or two, same story. I drove the car for the first time in a while in July and realized it was not safe to drive. Constantly slipping out of gear, couldn't get it going fast enough. Decided to read the recall again and realized it said it was a fire hazard. My dealer called and was told still no remedy, now they tell him hopefully end of Q3, so I asked the service manager to please get me into a loaner on Jeep. They did this. This is almost 2 months later, still no remedy. It's fantastic how Jeep can spend millions on fancy advertisements with Derek Jeter, yet because the people who own clutch vehicles are such a small percentage it seems our safety is not a priority. I can't believe a major car manufacturer has taken over 7 months knowing there is a safety issue and still no remedy.

I have had both w12 & y07 recalls done and didn't have any problems with my clutch before then, now my clutch is making a strange noise and slipping. A software update to degrade power to my engine doesn't fix a clutch problem. Recalls are suppose to fix problems, not create more.

Jeep slips out of low range into neutral. When off road on steep terrain, transfer case slips into neutral. This is when going up or down dirt trails with axles locked. It is very dangerous when this occurs causing jeep to lose momentum and slide up or down hills. Generally happens a few minutes after engaging low range.
