Jan 2017 Front brakes dragged and squealed when vehicle was cold. Dealer performed TSB repair that replaced guide pins and bushings. Normally a one day repair, but multiple days to diagnose and not enough parts ordered initially.

Low speed loud squeal coming from both rear wheels and tied to wheel speed. Only does it when vehicle has cooled off from driving. Of course, dealer could not replicate. Getting worse over time, so I'm hoping they'll be able to replicate and fix before warranty expires.

Stutter and loss of power on moderate acceleration between gears 3-4, 4-5, 5-6, 6-7 after it had been sitting off for awhile, but only during the first 15 minutes of operation. Seems like turbo overboost and then sudden cutoff at shift time. Causes vehicle to lurch. Dealer could never diagnose. Took it back to them 4 or 5 times for this, but they could never reproduce (or so they said), but it does it for me on nearly every trip.

Loud rattle coming from passenger rear area of panoramic sunroof. After a couple trips to the dealer, they were able to reproduce the problem. They failed to repair it the first time, so I brought it back a second time for the same thing. They found a nut had come off a fastener and was rattling in a metal channel near the sunroof. They said they tightened it back up, but I demanded they redo the work using loctite so it wouldn't come loose again.

Replace complete fuel system required due to metal fragments from the high pressure pump, both pumps, fuel lines and injectors. Both the Paulding CDJR and the Cartersville CDJR were unable to correct the problem, in fact, Paulding CDJR failed to follow the correct procedure for the repair. Voyles CDJR did the repair correctly and I would recommend them over any of the other CDJR dealers in the Cobb area.

EGR cooler recall. Manifold replaced. Waited 9 months for ChryslerFiat to produce part. Could not use Jeep during that time because of risk of vehicle fire! This is the only problem we've had with the Jeep during the last year. Nothing else goes wrong when it can't be driven.

Noise/slight vibration from front end,I suspected cv joint as front wheels were tight in jacked up trial, but turned out to be drivers side wheel bearing.

Head gasket replaced, left? side. Head gasket blew about 1 week after an home water pump repair where I forgot to top up the coolant after air bubbles flushed from engine. Drove the truck approximately 6 km with temperature gauge pegged. Just wanted to get home. Cylinder head was slightly warped by overheating but still in spec enough it didn't need resurfacing or replacement. Water pump was replaced. Noisy, kind of rattling noise, for maybe 12 months before the front seal on the shaft went spewing coolant everywhere, but it was a cold night so I drove it home (approximately 12 km). Lots of steam coming from under hood at that point, but I replaced water pump myself in my driveway, and seemed fine, except I missed one step which is always top up the coolant after you circulate it to push air out of system.
