Toggle body was replaced. My husband had the exact same thing replaced. Same model year, bought a couple of months apart. Suddenly lost acceleration ability.

I was rear ended while stopped in heavy traffic on a major highway. I was sitting on the drivers seat. My car seat had a seat back failure as soon as the at fault car impacted me.

I sustained head back and neck injuries as well as bruises on the back of my calves from hitting the rear/forward bar on bottom of seat. As the car impacted me my pelvic area was trust slightly because the seatbelt in place didn't hold me as I basically slid a bit of it when bending backwards on my seat. The vehicle was stationary on drive but my foot firmly planted on brake. The driver who hit me pushed me into the front

What happened: while driving at 20 MPH I heard a loud bang and swerving of the vehilce which I thought was a flat tire. I found that the left rear wheel fell off causing loss of control of the vehicle which I was able to stop without crashing due to my emergency vehicle driving with the state patrol.

It also collects in the front interior light fixture so when you drive and come to a stop there is water coming down all over the dashboard and the electrical/computer components of the dash. I called Jeep customer service and they won't repair it even though it is a VERY COMMON problem (per googl
