Oil noted dripping from the transmission case seam onto the exhaust crossover pipe. Probably did not catch fire due to the cold (11F) winter temperatures. Oil leak was found to be caused by defective rear main seal. Previous oil change (the first one for this vehicle) performed professionally. Oil replenished was "5.90 quarts" in a nominal 6 quart system. Vehicle: 2014 Jeep Wrangler unlimited jku, 3.6L "pentastar" engine, 6 speed manual transmission.

Wrangler 6-cyl

  • 2,900 miles
Transition & engine coolant temp immediately rose to alarm status (300 degrees) in first ever light duty 4 wd application. Off road 4WD conditions and terrain consisted of a 5% grade in low cut hay field. Alarm indicated immediate corrective action was necessary. Vehicle temperature gauges were rising from normal tolerances to alarm status in two minutes. Corrective action included cutting engine to cool. Corrective action also required blower and heater on highest settings to cool block and maintain operable driving condition temperatures. Engaging in the slightest load while 4 wheel drive train was engaged (off road) immediately replicated severe overheating condition of both tranny and block coolant. Vehicle was operable at normal operating temperatures at high speeds in two wheel drive while on pavement only. Vehicle is a 2014 Jeep sahara unlimited Wrangler with "V" 6 cyl motor automatic transmission with 2,900 miles on odometer (vehicle is brand new purchased in March 2014 - date of this report is April 2014).
