OUR JEEP'S TAIL PIPE, PRIMARILY DUE TO ITS EXCESSIVELY SHORT LENGTH, BECAME TUCKED, BY REGULAR VEHICLE USE, UNDER THE JEEP'S BUMPER AND FORCED HOT EXHAUST FUMES TO MELT THROUGH THE BUMPER. WE OBSERVED SIGNS OF CHARRING AND MELTING OF THE JEEP'S EXTERIOR BUMPER BODY CAUSED BY THIS TOO SHORT EXHAUST PIPE DESIGN DEFECT RESULTING IN AN OBVIOUS FIRE DANGER.

THE REAR BUMPER IS MELTED AROUND THE EXHAUST PIPE AS IF THERE WAS A FIRE. I DRIVE MY 2 CHILDREN IN THIS CAR CONSTANTLY. I BOUGHT THIS CAR A MONTH AGO. I WAS SHOCKED TO DISCOVER THE MELTED PLASTIC BUMPER AND WANT JEEP TO REPAIR IT ALL, EXHAUST PIPE AND BUMPER AND PROBLEM THAT CAUSED THE MELTING, AT NO COST TO ME ASAP. *TR
