SEAT BELTS

Potential Consequences:

I had already had to replace 2 rear seat belts in my wrangler over a year ago. Both seat belts tore completely in half. The cost for the seat belts alone was 500. A year later, I had another seat belt rip in half. One that was already replaced ripped right in half again. I only occasionally have had anyone in the back seat. Possibly once a week. Now, I cannot put anyone, especially children in the back seat of my 4 door, so called 5 passenger jeep because it is not safe. the seat belts fray and rip.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING

Potential Consequences:

While driving all dashboard warning lights came on and the headlights and directional lights stopped functioning causing a dangerous driving condition in the dark. I immediately pulled over the 2017 wrangler and attempted to turn off the vehicle to reset the computer system. The Jeep would not turn off with ignition turned off and the key removed.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

Jeep has been randomly just shutting off- whether I have been driving for an hour, or the following day- when I go to start it, all lights show up but it will not turn on. I get out of the car with the key and find that my remote start always works. I have taken my car to the dealership, they said I need a new battery? I got the battery checked two weeks ago and all was fine. Several times that my car does not turn on the electrial light shows up on my dash. I have found many people have had this same issue- however MOPAR has not recalled it. Recall Number 18V524000, Report Data Aug 9, 2018- Electrical System- Wiring, front underhood. __The powertrain control module may be equipped with a voltage regulator chip in the circuit board that may fail, causing a stall or a no start condition. I have seen the electrical light on my dashboard, however this is always random. The dealership says to replace the battery, which when they sent over the results they didnt even show what it mesaured. This seems to an issue with fellow Jeep owners and should be recalled and added to the MOPAR website.
