Owner Complaints (3)
AS I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT, FOR NO REASON AT ALL THE REAR WINDOW EXPLODED AND SHATTERED IN PIECES. DEALERSIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE JEEP WOULD NOT HELP NOR WOULD JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE AT 800-847-9753 AS A MATTER OF FACT THEY WERE DEFENSIVE AND RUDE.
I AM ON THE SECOND WINDSHIELD IN LESS THAN 2 YEARS. THE FIRST ONE COULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY IMPACT AS IT OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. THE SECOND TIME IN LESS THAN 6 MONTHS (FIRST WINDSHIELD WAS REPLACED WITH MOPAR OEM PARTS) I WAS SITTING AT A RED LIGHT WHEN I SAW IT CRACK, THERE WAS NO IMPACT. I HAD MY DEFROSTERS ON HIGH HEAT AND HIGH FAN. THE CRACK WENT FROM THE CENTER OF THE WINDSHIELD ALL THE WAY TO THE DRIVERS SIDE. RESEARCHING ON LINE THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE AND NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND BETTER GLASS SHOULD BE INSTALLED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP WRANGLER. WHEN THE DEFOGGER WAS ACTIVATED, IT FAILED TO RESPOND. AS A RESULT, THE VISIBILITY THROUGH THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WAS OBSCURED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 33,619.
