Stellantis (Chrysler/Dodge/Jeep/Ram) Cases Under Maine Lemon Law

Stellantis (Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram) has strong Maine market share — Jeep Wrangler/Grand Cherokee and Ram 1500 are popular for winter, trail, and work use. Cases are pursued under the Maine Lemon Law, the UTPA, and Magnuson-Moss.

Common Stellantis defect patterns

• Jeep “death wobble” — Wrangler / Gladiator solid-front-axle steering oscillation — a serious steering failure.
• 3.6L Pentastar — rocker-arm / lifter failures, stalling.
• eTorque mild-hybrid electrical faults.
• 8-speed (ZF) / 9-speed (948TE) transmission issues.
• Uconnect infotainment crashes, reboots.
• 4xe plug-in hybrid cold-weather charging/battery issues.

Maine Stellantis market

• Jeep Wrangler / Grand Cherokee popular for winter and trail use.
• Ram 1500 (half-ton covered; commercial 8,500 lbs+ used commercially falls outside).

Death wobble + the one-attempt rule

Jeep death wobble is a serious steering failure that can invoke Maine’s one-attempt rule — relevant given Maine’s rough rural roads and frost heaves. Road salt accelerates Wrangler frame and suspension corrosion. Steering-damper TSBs support UTPA damages.

Bottom line

Stellantis cases — Jeep death wobble, Pentastar, and Uconnect — fit Maine’s framework, with death wobble a one-attempt-rule candidate given the terrain. Use AG arbitration for speed. Get a free case review.
