Wrangler Unlimited V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 78 miles

Just 3 days after I bought my new 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (with 2 miles, built in 8/2016) the Electrical System started glitching. First, the radio and Bluetooth cell connection would just crash and go completely dark like there was no power at all to that system. This continues to happen at random, some times off and on every few minutes. Super annoying! Then about 5 days after I made my purchase, the A/C failed to start. While an indicator light on the A/C looked like it was getting power, there was just no response from the A/C system. Over 100 degrees here in the South. Wish I had my Chevy Tahoe back,140,000 miles with no problems and no payment! Jeep is CHEAP CRAP stay away!

I do not have any fancy systems just the basic A/C and Radio System so this is not an issue confined to a few packages, this is the basic system that drives all Wranglers. The Electrical is CRAP! Occasionally, when this happens the dash board will display a "no fuse" message but not always. And, of course, the fuses are fine.

The best part is Jeep claims they have no idea what this could be and have never heard of anything like this before, apparently they do not use the internet because there are reports of this happening that go back to 2006 for the wrangler. WISH I COULD DUMP THIS LEMON AFTER ONLY 2 WEEKS!!

Also, no real failure in the transmission but it shifts awful, it was not noticeable on the test drive but now that I have drove it more on the highway, it really lags in shifting, is really rough, over revving before finally shifting.
