There are a ton of posts on Reddit showing a bunch of 3.6l jeep owners all having the same issue with the VVT/VVL Solenoid. It seems to be all the same, the truck starts running very rough and like complete [XXX], CEL starts blinking, and then they check the codes coming up and they all seem to be getting codes p0456, p105d & p0302. The misfire is in cylinder 2 and the VVT Solenoid needs to be replaced at not even 70k miles. The bad solenoid caused the jeep to be undriveable. There are a ton of jeep owners who are all having this same EXACT issue with their jeep and yet this isn’t a recall?? Jeep obviously made a faulty truck. Please explain HOW THERE ISN’T A RECALL TO FIX THE VVT/VVL SOLENOID IN THESE JEEPS?? Some people are spending thousands to get it fixed at a dealer, which is seriously messed up bc it’s one little part and such an easy fix and just getting ripped off. JEEP NEEDS TO FIX THIS OBVIOUS VERY WELL KNOWN ENGINE ISSUE BC THATS ON THEM, THEY SHOULD HAVE TO PAY, NOT THE CONSUMERS who put all their faith into jeep to make a good running truck, only to get [XXX]!!! INFORMATION Redacted PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).

I noticed a clanking noise when backing out of my drive. Dealership reported that they have had this issue a couple of times. The nut holding the drive shaft and transmission together backed off and has damaged the drive shaft, yoke, and flange causing the drive shaft to move around this the clanking noise I’ve been hearing. My vehicle has been in the shop for 4 months know because they are unable to find the flange needed to complete the repairs. I have owned this vehicle less than a year and am being told that this has been turned over to Chrysler to handle now since the part is not manufactured anywhere.

Potential Consequences:
The transfer case on this Jeep failed at just over 64,000 miles. As the service center tried to repair, they were unable to locate rebuilt/certified transfer cases due to high demand. A new transfer case was purchased. The core charge (fee to return old transfer case) for the service center was $1000 indicating to me that the old, failed transfer case is in high demand for rebuilds due to a common failing part. The failure of this part locks the vehicle in 4WD low. The cost of repair for me was over $2500.

Defect Description:
ENGINE
Potential Consequences:
On April 11, 2022, after driving home from work I noticed oil dripping onto my driveway. I opened the hood of the vehicle and discovered that my cooling system was completely filled with oil and there wasn't any noticeable coolant left in the system. I then checked the oil level via dipstick, and found there to be an extremely low level of oil in the engine. Prior to pulling into the driveway, there were no warning lights, no check engine light, or low oil lights on the dashboard. Nothing to indicate a potentially serious issue. The vehicle was then towed to a Jeep dealership for repair. The dealer indicated, both on the paperwork and over the phone, that the Engine Oil Adapter Housing (Mopar Part 68308741-AF) was leaking internally, causing the oil to be redirected into the cooling system and displacing the coolant (see attached invoice from Jeep). Most of the cooling system had to be replaced due to oil contamination. This part failure could have been catastrophic had I been traveling down the road or the freeway, as a loss of oil in the engine and a cooling system not properly functioning, could have caused the engine to fail while at speed leading to a loss of power steering and braking, and possibly resulting in a crash. Additionally, as previously mentioned, no warning lights or indicators were visible at any time. From talking to the dealership and researching online, this part failure is common on all 3.2L and 3.6L Pentastar V6 engines. The dealership, at the time of my vehicles repair, had three other FCA/Stellantis vehicles in for the exact same issue. This component is made of plastic and is located directly on top of the engine block, and below the intake manifold. This area can get very hot and cause the plastic to become brittle and crack without warning. The original failed component was taken by the dealership, and I do not have it on hand. The vehicle has been serviced by the dealership, and it currently in working order. FCA is aware of the issue.
