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

Stellantis (Chrysler, Dodge, Jeep, Ram) has solid Rhode Island market share — Jeep Wrangler/Grand Cherokee and Ram 1500 are popular for winter and work use. Cases are pursued under the Rhode Island Lemon Law, the DTPA, 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.

Rhode Island Stellantis market

• Jeep Wrangler / Grand Cherokee popular for winter use.
• Ram 1500 (half-ton under the 10,000-lb cap; heavier trims fall outside).

Death wobble + safety leverage

Jeep death wobble is a serious steering-safety failure. Rhode Island has no one-attempt rule, so it runs on the 4-attempt / 30-calendar-day track — but it clearly impairs safety. Coastal salt accelerates Wrangler frame and suspension corrosion.

Stellantis cases — Jeep death wobble, Pentastar, and Uconnect — fit Rhode Island’s framework. Use the AG’s Arbitration Board for speed. Get a free case review.
