Wrangler Rubicon V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 10,000 miles

DO NOT EVER BUY CHRYSLER! My near $50,000 2016 Jeep with less than 10,000 miles out of nowhere, no warnings nobody can find anything stalled as I entered the onramp on a busy highway in Braintree , MA, nearly KILLING me! Computer system shows nothing, it stalls most anytime I go to drive it into D or R then clunk, it just stops, no power brakes, no power steering yet Premiere Jeep of Cape Cod can’t find anything although they admit to getting it to simulate one time.

LIARS, look on online and that’s all they (Chrysler) say to everyone, can't get it to do it with us. Nobody can fix it and I can’t continue legally UNLESS I drive it to another dealer to try and fix. DRIVE IT? They must be NUTS; I don’t want to get killed, NO THANKS! Paying $600.00/month for another year on this lease, it's already sat in my driveway almost one year now. What a RIP-OFF. I bought a new TOYOTA RAV4 so I KNOW I can get to work safely.

I'm now paying TWO 600.00 /month payments ($1200.00) and yes, I need a NEW vehicle because I am putting a 100 miles/day and travel alone at night on a new job I waited a long time for. I will never buy Chrysler again in my life! N-E-V-E-R! PREMIERE JEEP ON CAPE COD, MA Especially Mr. Dent, you should have done something! You KNOW I almost got killed with traffic at 60-70 mph! -->SHAME ON YOU! 35+ years I was a faithful customer and Chrysler/JEEP you abandoned me with this one. What goes around comes around. DO NOT BUY!

  • Automatic transmission

6 month old Jeep has stalled 4 times. Told don't know what problem is and "can't chase a ghost" guess that means I have to live with it? This is dangerous - almost got hit last time it stalled. If they can't fix it they should replace car.

traction and check engine light together

where to start.....first this is my second jeep wrangler right hand drive! I decided my 2014 was a lemon. Special ordered a 2016. EXACT SAME THING! Only this time it started at 11k miles! They have currently re-wired it, replaced the pcm, the entire computer, and changed the entire cylinder head! Next day, traction control light and check engine light back on! It dies while driving. What a nightmere! They are currently talking with jeep headquarters trying to figure out what to do now. Its been a week and nothing. Guess they have no idea! Anyone else dealing with these same issues? There has to be some kind of fix and explaination! Thanks! Kim
