I never thought I would come on here but I am desperate pretty much for advice. Starting mid July into August I noticed my new 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL had an issue of randomly and severely drifting to the left by itself. Meaning I constantly had to adjust the steering wheel to prevent it from going into the other lane. Thats when I decided to take it the dealership on 9/11. I went ahead and duplicated the problem to the dealership and the service guy said oh thats just a wheel alignment issue. However, after 4 days of inspecting the car it turned out not to be a wheel alignment issue. So I was advised to take it to the original dealership where I signed my contract with.
I drove 40 miles to the dealership where I bought the car from. They asked me to drop off the car and they would inspect it. Then a couple days after they asked me to drive down again to duplicate the problem to them, as if it was not clear enough to them. However, I did not mind I drove down and duplicated the problem to them. I drove the car with one of the service guys he took me on a clean road with new paved streets. He said he sees the problem, then while still on the road he tells me that the car is driving normal. So I asked him to sit in the passenger seat and have him drive instead for me to see how the car is performing normal from his perspective when a couple minutes previously he said he notices the problem. Moreover, the car has been at the dealership now for a couple of days. The dealership opened a star case Chrysler got involved in this situation. I was frustrated because they kept telling me they were not able to duplicate the problem like 4 times. Then finally a technician came down to investigate the car. The technician guy rebooted the software specifically Power steering control. After, I took the car from them I asked for documentation that the car used to be at 0.4 and now its at 0.2. They provided me with no proof of the before and after. They said the technician did not print out the records. Anyways, I still noticed the car was still drifting and whats even worse now my start/stop engine function no longer works. Now I have been completely fed up with Jeep and my case manager no one is assisting me and neither was my case manager returning any of my calls after he offered a "buy out opportunity."
Finally, I drop it off to another dealership (my third attempt). I go ahead and tell them all about the problems that my car has. They keep it over the weekend from Saturday until Friday. On their notes they note "Internal Battery System failure" and they note that the "start/stop engine function works ok at this time." In addition, I mentioned my drifting issue to them and they tried to convince me that the problem is wheel alignment. Keep in mind they had the opportunity to view the other dealership performing the wheel alignment and coming to a conclusion that wheel alignment is not the issue to the drifting.
Currently, I am in a big problem where my case manager is not calling me it has been more than 48 hours which is there maximum requirement (it has been a week now). This is my second case manager who does not call or even acknowledge my case. My car started out with one problem now it has two. I am shocked by the kind of customer service Jeep has. It sincerely made me not want to even consider being replaced in a different car just because of the way I have been dealt with. I was wondering if anyone has similar issues whether with the car or customer service and knows a way to get this situation fixed ASAP? because it has been over a month now and I am irritated of the whole situation.
I completely apologize for the detailed story but really any feedback would be great. Thank you very much!!!!
