Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
Error Codes P0300, 301,305, 420. Driving on the interstate I got the CEL light. One point during driving when the 420 code came in vehicle went into limp mode and speed was greatly reduced in 70 mph traffic. Luckily I was able to get to the side of the road so no accident happened. Researched the issue and changed ignition coil packs and plugs. Upon restarting vehicle got the P0300 coda again. More research done and found the bulletin from FCA for the repair. Took to dealership and they refreshed. Picked up from dealership and threw the code instantly. Took to another dealership and now they are saying it is because of aftermarket coil packs and plugs. This is a big issue with JEEP and they are not trying to fix anything.

I pushed off button. I couldn’t get out of truck of driver side door it’s damaged. 1 witness & lady from suv stopped to check on me. I called police to crash site. He noted witness & lack of break marks. Roadside service wait was long, officer called one. I made a report to Uconnect that evening. They gave me a case # told me they’d move vehicle to a dealer, inspect, analyze & call me. I’ve called, recorded calls & told case was elevated to higher level & no info can be given to me. They refused to tell me where car was, if inspected, warranty info, or what malfunctioned. My ribs, clavicles, r shoulder hurt for a month.
Corrective Action:
My truck malfunctioned at an automatic car wash. It has approximately 54k miles. I had no warning lights or system alerts on vehicle or Uconnect app. I stopped in the parking lot & put the Gladiator in Park, I left the ignition on. I got off truck & got a towel to clean interior.There are several spaces to vacuum. I put the vehicle in DRIVE to move forward & out of the way of a patron that was going to reverse out. In DRIVE, I pushed the gas pedal in a slight & normal way. The truck REVERSED in DRIVE position. It accelerated to an unknown speed, it felt constant. I pushed break with foot I pushed D with. Right foot. The breaks didn’t work. I tried breaking several times during incident, it was approximately 10 seconds. I didn’t have time to use e- break. I don’t believe back up camera was displayed. I concentrated on physically looking at surroundings & steering. I avoided hitting 1 car, a SUV & a brick wall. The truck made contact with around 4 trees & a sign. The damage was mainly to L side. There’s damage to R side & R back tire had a bulge on it. I went over a concrete, grassy area & felt the impacts of front & back ends going over it & landing. I went over another concrete curve & hit a tree at an angle around the middle of front L cab. The impact caused the car to bounce forward. It didn’t move. I put the truck in Park from D position. I pushed off button. I couldn’t get out of truck of driver side door it’s damaged. 1 witness & lady from suv stopped to check on me. I called police to crash site.

ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
I have had this vehicle in the shop more times than it has been on the road. It originally started with the auto start stop sensor. They told me to turn that off. They did an update. And it kept happening over and over again where it would cut itself off and I couldn’t get it restarted. The fix worked for maybe a month and it started all over again. Now the engine light is on I can be doing 30 miles an hour down the middle of town and it dies even with the auto start stop turned off. The steering is so loose that you have to fight it all the time to keep it in the road. The engine light is on and stays on. And it sounds like a scraping when the vehicle is in motion but the tires have clearance and no issues with their clearance. Checked under the vehicle nothing is under the vehicle. This vehicle has never been off road. I believe it qualifies as a lemon.

The driver side sun visor collapsed while I was driving over 60 mph on the freeway on a vehicle under 3K mileage. It appears this issue is common for many jeep owners. Aside from the reactionary swerve to a random object falling & obscuring your view while driving on the freeway, I managed to regain control, pull over and wedge it back temporarily. Apparently it's not an easy fix and glue does not work.

SERVICE BRAKES
Potential Consequences:
A braking sensor failed on the Gladiator causing the ABS, 4WD, and cruise warning lights to become illuminated. The brakes then did not work properly causing an accident. The EDR report shows the ABS system was turned off as a result of the sensor. The attached documentation shows an expert reviewed the information and came to the conclusion the failed sensor caused the ABS to be off which in turn caused the brakes to lock. The brakes locking caused a skid which caused the accident. Also to note the general manager of Bellevue AutoNation let me know the sensor has since been changed out along with the brake cables on 06/05/2021 for all Jeep Gladiators. Jeep has known this is a problem and has not done a recall.
