2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR 4X4 — Complaint #635842
Open-data reference.
NHTSA Complaint about STEERING:LINKAGES:DRAG:POWER ASSIST SYSTEM filed August 24, 2007
NHTSA complaint #635842 (ODI reference 10200684) concerns a 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR 4X4 and was filed on August 24, 2007. The owner reports the failure occurred on August 24, 2007. The vehicle had 13,000 miles on the odometer at the time of the incident. The report was geocoded to Georgia based on the filer's self-reported location. The affected component is categorized as steering:linkages:drag:power assist system, one of NHTSA's standardized taxonomy codes used to group defect patterns across make, model, and year.
The filer flagged the following severity indicators: crash: no, fire: no, injuries: 0, fatalities: 0. No crash, fire, or fatality was associated with this report, which places it in the early-warning stream rather than the priority-review stream. Because a VIN was supplied, this complaint is tied to a specific vehicle and not just a model-year cohort.
Individual complaints are consumer-submitted and unverified by NHTSA engineers — the agency's role at this stage is to collect, index, and make them searchable. What matters for federal action is the pattern: when many owners of the same JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR 4X4 cohort independently describe similar steering:linkages:drag:power assist system failures, defect investigators have grounds to open a PE and request manufacturer data.
