| Was Vehicle Towed: - | Description of the Complaints: The 2006 six speed jeep wrangler has a very dangerous design flaw. new for the 2006 jeep wrangler is the six speed transmissions and what i have recently learned the hard way is part of the redesign includes the clutch assembly. the clutch rod comes out of the floor board and attaches to the clutch pedal with a clip/attachment that bolts onto the clutch pedal. the problem here is as part of their new design the clip or attachment piece is made of ??plastic?? and i found that it can break very easily and disable your jeep. i learned this fact this last weekend and if i had been rock climbing or in the desert instead of in town i might not be here letting all you jeep owners know about this very dangerous problem. in addition to this problem and being 165 miles from home i had a big eye opener on how rude, uncooperative, uncaring and totally unhelpful i found corporation to be. read the details of my past weekend and daimler chrysler see how dangerous and potentially deadly this problem can be unless daimler chrysler corporation corrects it! i almost forgot to mention that even though it was a warranted part it turned out to be a very expensive problem for me as well. *nm |
