What owners wrote
Tl* the contact owns a 2016 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that the rear passenger side door panel was extremely sharp and continuously injured the rear seat passenger upon exiting. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The failure mileage was approximately 112. Updated 01/05/2017
When the jeep is stopped and you want to get out of the front or rear door. At the door threshold when you step on the carpet it will collapse and give you about a 1-inch space which causes you to trip. I ask the service center and jeep about this issue and they said so what this is the way it was designed.
