What owners wrote

I bought a brand new 2024 Jeep wrangler which has failed twice for the same issue with just 512 miles on the odometer. The first time it failed happened on the freeway at a speed of 70mph. Smoke started coming out from the rear of the vehicle impairing the traffic behind. I pulled over to the shoulder and noticed oil dripping from the exhaust and the rear undercarriage of the vehicle. I drove the car home fearing it could get on fire.

The contact stated there was no warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer who was unable to duplicate the failure or determine the cause of the failure.
