There are 6 owner-reported brakes complaints for the 2019 Jeep Wranglerin NHTSA's database. These are unverified consumer reports and may not reflect confirmed defects.
The front left (drivers side) caliper stuck and the the brake line needs replaced. The caliper sticking was causing extreme heat that could have caused a fire as well as brake failure. The dealership confirmed that the parts need replaced. No warning messages were ever appear. Additionally, the left brake line from Mopar is not availalbe and there are almost a 1000 on back order. The Jeep is not drivable and no parts available for the foreseeable future to fix the problem.
Calibers keep locking up making the brake system go bad. I had my calibers replace, which is weird because they almost never go bad. My jeep has only 60k miles on it. Now I'm back at the dealership getting them replace 200 miles later. This needs to be inspected.
ABS module has failed, according to dealership. The car has been in the service department at the dealership four times now in the past month. All of the warning lights go on, the car drives sluggishly, and I am told the car is undrivable due to the potential loss of brakes. Apparently there is a huge backorder of this part, but I purchased a max care extended service warranty and I feel that the dealership needs to make good on this. It's becoming a breech of contract.
The vehicle started to have braking issues where the brakes would sometimes apply both front brakes or one one front brake causing the vehicle to swerve erratically when braking. Sometimes the right front brake would also stay applied for extended periods of time causing the vehicle to pull hard and the braking system to overheat so hot that I burned my fingers on the tire rim after parking the vehicle and inspecting. The Jeep has been at the dealership for repairs for over 7 months under warranty and they don't know how to fix the vehicle and are not willing to replace it! This is a massive safety concern that should make everyone think twice before buying a Jeep when the brand wont even take care of there customers!
When pressing on the breaks , the brakes required moderate amount of force to push in order for the vehicle to come to a complete stop or to yield, there is a loud hissing , leaking sound that is also heard from under the hood. This noise does not seem to go away even after taking it back to dealership to get it diagnosed, the brakes remain a little hard to press on as well. The dealership said it was a vacuum booster brake that was wearing out so they switched it but the noise remains the same and so does the forge to push down on the brakes . This is a dangerous factor to be dealing with as the brakes are something that is used constant in a vehicle to idle your car or to stop. According to the dealership this complaint is very common amongs other Jeep owners about the brake not functioning 100%, there are no warning signs or lights that ever popped up as well . Please help fix this can cause death if brakes fail at some point while I own the Jeep .
I RECENTLY RENTED A 2019 JEEP WRANGLER FROM AVIS AT MCCARRAN AIRPORT IN LAS VEGAS. THE AVIS VEHICLE NUMBER WAS 90380010. THE RENTAL AGREEMENT NUMBER WAS 420140943. THE VEHICLE HAD AN AFTERMARKET PIECE OF ELECTRONIC EQUIPMENT INSTALLED BY AVIS UNDER THE DRIVER SIDE DASHBOARD, PROBABLY A GPS DEVICE OF SOME KIND. THE DEVICE WAS PLUGGED INTO THE VEHICLE'S ELECTRICAL SYSTEM ON THE LEFT HAND WALL OF THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, WITH A CORD ABOUT 12-18 INCHES LONG STRETCHED OUT UNDER THE DASHBOARD. THE DEVICE WAS VERY POORLY INSTALLED. WHILE I WAS DRIVING, THE DEVICE DROPPED OUT FROM BEHIND THE DASHBOARD, AND THE CORD WRAPPED ITSELF AROUND THE BRAKE PEDAL, WITH THE DEVICE ITSELF FALLING IMMEDIATELY BEHIND THE PEDAL. THE ACTUAL DEVICE WAS ABOUT 2 INCHES BY 3 INCHES. IT BLOCKED THE BRAKE PEDAL, REDUCING AVAILABLE BRAKING BY 80 PERCENT. FORTUNATELY, I WAS TRAVELING AT A SLOW SPEED ON A QUIET STREET AND WAS ABLE TO BRING THE CAR TO A HALT.
