Stellantis Lemon Law Cases in Tennessee (Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler)

How Tennessee Lemon Law (§ 55-24-101) applies to Stellantis brands — Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler. UConnect, death wobble, transmission.

Stellantis (FCA brands: Jeep, Ram, Dodge, Chrysler) has strong Tennessee market — Jeep / Ram presence in rural TN, particularly east TN and Tri-Cities region. Tennessee Lemon Law applies fully.

Common Stellantis defect patterns

  • UConnect 5 infotainment — random reboots, CarPlay disconnects.
  • ZF 8HP transmission programming — shift quality.
  • Pentastar 3.6L V6 — older issues with lifters / rocker arms.
  • Hemi 5.7L / 6.4L — generally reliable; cam/lifter issues on some.
  • EcoDiesel 3.0L V6 — emissions / DEF system issues.
  • Jeep Wrangler / Gladiator death wobble — front-axle vibration. Strong TN rural case category.
  • Ram 1500 / 2500 / 3500 death wobble — same front-end issue.
  • Cherokee 9-speed transmission — older ZF 9HP issues.
  • Pacifica / Voyager — sliding-door, fuel-pump issues.
  • Hellcat / SRT — generally reliable but engine issues on track use.
  • 4xe plug-in hybrid — battery cooling, software issues.

Death wobble — Tennessee rural concentration

The Wrangler / Gladiator / Ram death-wobble issue is well-documented and particularly prevalent in TN’s rural pickup/SUV market:

  • East TN, Tri-Cities, rural middle TN.
  • I-40 / I-75 / I-24 highway exposure.
  • Off-road use common.

Strong TN Lemon Law case where wobble recurs after multiple repair attempts.

Stellantis IDS / BBB Auto Line

Stellantis uses BBB Auto Line as certified IDS. TN consumers must:

  • File BBB Auto Line first (§ 55-24-106).
  • Then court action if denied.

TCPA in Stellantis cases

  • Death wobble disclosure — pre-purchase awareness.
  • EcoDiesel emissions — lingering TCPA exposure.
  • 4xe hybrid — battery / range claims.

Bottom line

Stellantis is fully covered under Tennessee Lemon Law. Death wobble, UConnect, ZF 8HP, and EcoDiesel are common case patterns. TCPA available for treble damages where deceptive practices are pleaded.
