Service Brakes
10/14/2025
Dear Sir (or Madam), We have a 2017 Wrangler Rubicon and we've change the rear Brake Hoses, Calibers, Rotors and Brakes twice due to the brake hoses collapsing and not letting the fluid return to the master cylinder. The first time it was covered the second time 1000 bucks. We have also replaced the front Brake Hoses, Calibers, rotors and brake due to the brake hose collapsing and not letting the fluid return to the master cylinder another 640 bucks. This is the third Wrangler we've owned and the same thing has happened on all 3 the rear hoses collapse and wont let the fluid return to the master cylinder. You would think that since it has to do with the brakes you at NHTSA would say its a hazard because the brakes lock up.

Fuel/propulsion System

Every time the vehicle is filled with fuel it overfills and a large amount of fuel spills in the vehicle and ground. This is a safety concern which can lead to a fire unexpectedly. Upon inspection the fuel tank control valve has been found to be inoperative and can cause a fuel leak during a vehicle rollover event, debris in the fuel tank, and/or the ability to overfill the fuel tank during refueling. A fuel leak during a vehicle rollover event, in the presence of an ignition source, could cause a fire without warning and lead to death. The vehicle is not shown to have an outstanding recall though this year and model does have a recall for a limited number of the production.

The ABS Module Failed while Driving. Yes it is available for inspection. The 2017 Jeep Wrangler stopped abruptly. Then it barely moved when I continued to press on the Accelerator pedal. Then it ran normal for about a mile, then it started jerking like I was depressing the brake pedal, intermittently. The safety of myself and others was put at risk by the sudden braking without any input from me. Yes, the problem has been confirmed by an independent service center. No, the vehicle has not been inspected by the Police, Manufacturer, or Insurance Representatives. The ABS lamp came on, as well as others. It has been at the service shop for one month. The owner of the shop told me that the "working" part is unavailable, right now. He is looking in Junkyards for a used part. I wrote an email to [XXX] " and they said that they're not working on Jeeps with this problem right now, because they can't get the "chips" (Micro processors). I called the Jeep Dealership, they told me that the part w...

Parts of the manual transmission are failing and appear in the bottom of the transmission when changing the fluid. It appears to be part of the synchro. This is apparently not uncommon for these manual transmissions. There were no warning lamps or messages indicating a failure or problem with the transmission. A transmission failure can startle a driver and cause an accident. It did not in this case.

It randomly will not start and will need a jump start to get going. My safety has been put at risk due to not being able to start the car while in unfamiliar locations. I have had fhe battery and alternator checked and both came back with no issue. No symptoms. Just the issue of not starting even after driving around all day. There’s no pattern when it comes to knowing if it will start or not.
