   I am reporting a defect with the driver-side sun visor on my 2019 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited. The sun visor mounting mechanism is faulty and has broken/detached during normal use. When this occurs, the visor drops down unexpectedly and obstructs the driver’s forward view. This creates a serious safety hazard, as the visor can suddenly block visibility while the vehicle is in motion, increasing the risk of a crash. The failure happened without excessive force or misuse, only…

   The passenger side Sun visor has broken off up inside the ceiling where it’s hinged so now it just drops down. It’s the same issue all the Jeep visors have. Jeep isn’t correcting the defect. They just keep putting the same problem out for the consumer to deal with over & over again & they’re being allowed to do that!!!

   The far driver and passenger sides of the windshield do not defrost in sub freezing weather. The windshield defrost duct vents are not adequate to force hot air to either side of the center vent. This results in windshield and wiper icing over in temperatures below ~20° F causing drastically reduced visibility 12 or more inches from each side of the windshield. The problem has been mush discussed on the JL Wrangler Forum at this thread:…

   The front windshield defrost doesn’t work as it should. The windshield will ice up on the driver side and passenger side and create major visibility issues. The blower only seems to blow heat to the center of the windshield and not the sides

    I noticed during colder time the windshield was not defrosting the edges of the windshield. I took it to the dealer to have them check my defroster, They claim it is working as intended. So I just let the windshield defrost more before driving. But during recent snow storm, I noticed the defroster only defrosted the center of the windshield while driving and with constant snow the build up on the edges was making the edges not clear causing blind spots. This is very…

    The defrost is absolutely terrible. Both left and right vents do not push air causing the right and left side of the windshield to freeze up and windshield wipers to freeze up. Had to pull over in an unsafe location because visibility went to zero and created a very unsafe situation for me and my family.

    Driver's side sun visor attachment to roof fails unexpectedly causing visor to fall and obstruct driver's vision. Jeep is well aware of the problem and has failed to provide a reliable fix or repair. My visor has been replaced twice already and failed for the third time yesterday. Vehicle is 2 years 4 months old and has 15,000 miles.
