Exploding Jeep Wrangler and Gladiator Manual Transmission Clutches Force Recall: No Fix Yet
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration just announced a recall of almost 70,000 Jeep Gladiator and Wrangler vehicles with manual transmissions. Clutch plates are exploding due to overheating, with the potential of creating a fire. Unfortunately, Jeep has no fix for now.
Have there been injuries from Jeep manual transmission issues?
One injury has already been reported, according to the NHTSA. Jeep says friction is causing the overheating, which, in turn, causes the clutch plate to fracture. Shards of broken clutch material can explode through the transmission case, causing injury.
