Heated Steering Wheel not staying on.

[Glovetown]

Thanks for the info guys. I wish mine was still under warranty, but oh well. Looks like I should schedule a service appointment.

Trade it in and make some money,
Order a new one. Wranglers out of warranty are call jeep life lol

That has definitely crossed my mind…

What did everyone come up with? Does anyone have the parts numbers from the invoice? My 2019 JLUR with 37k miles just started having the same problem. I’ve read multiple messages and it seems to all be the same, the module with overheated wiring. It would seem to me that a TSB would be in order based on my limited research and dozens of vehicles exhibiting the same issue. Thanks.

Hey, Ei4115. Our team would be happy to discuss your concerns further. Follow up with us in private message when you get a chance.

This happened to me about a month ago, its currently waiting to get the wheel, module, harness and clock spring replaced as they are on order. Some wiring melted as I smelled it before the wheel stopped working. Out of factory warranty, but have max-care so its covered by that at least...I agree with the above posts though, trade it in as that's what Im doing almost as soon as it gets repaired before something else stops working hahaha

Just happened to me and it is sad to see this is a major problem with way to many people.

Well after owning 4 wranglers I am sure disappointed after reading all the posts about this issue. Especially seeing that it is a major flaw from practically new and Mopar not willing to assists customers in anyway once out of warranty. Knowing that this issue persists I will be trading my 2020 Sahara in and leaving the Jeep community. My 3 sons all drive Toyota SUV vehicles and I must say over the years have had minimal issues so that is the route that I will be going. Sad isn’t it no vehicle is perfect but when a common issue like this is apparent and the manufacturer knows and does not offer any kind assistance especially for the price of these Jeep today it is very sad. I have really enjoyed my wranglers but the saying “It’s a Jeep thing “ certainly doesn’t apply anymore.

The dealer has pretty much been no help to me at all and told me that the part is backordered and will probably not be available. They actually laughed when I told them about all the other people that been having problems. They told me they haven't seen it themselves. I had the guy check on their computer and found out they had another jeep in with the same issue that same month. This is a small dealership and they still acted weird to me.

My heated steering wheel has the same issue. Light goes on and then turns off after a second or 2. Brutal. I went last winter without getting this looked at and finally got it in for a quote. $1700+ to replace the steering wheel due to melted wiring. I’ve got a 2018 JL Sahara with 60k miles. Can’t believe how widespread this issue is and there’s no bulletin or Jeep fix. I can buy a lot of gloves for $2k. But really want the upgrade I originally paid for to work appropriately.

My 2020 just turned 60k miles.... of course, just in time for cold weather, the heated steering wheel quit working...

Has anyone tried to fix it?

Mine went at about 30,000 miles on my 2020 JLUR but luckily was covered under warranty. Not sure on price and hoping I don’t ever have to find out.
