problem #1

Jan 082018

Wrangler 6-cyl

  • 40,090 miles
On Jan 8th I was heading home on union road in the middle of rush hour traffic. A car infront of me decided to turn left so I had to stop when I proceeded to go around him I heard a loud bang and my Jeep stopped dead. When I tried to put the car in drive, reverse, or neutral the Jeep didn't move. Had I have been going the speed limit or got on the thurway in which was 200 ft away where I was headed to go home my Jeep would have flipped from the sudden lock up of my wheels. I could have died. There was no warnings, noises, ect. It just snapped. Not only the 1500 dollar repair the technician told me that there had to be a defect in the differential. I would like Jeep to contact me [xxx] on this matter I feel that I should not have to pay for this thank you [xxx] information redacted pursuant to the Freedom Of Information Act (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).
