THERE IS A PROBLEM WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK, WHEN THE GAS PUMP CLICKS OFF, FUEL SPILLS OUT ON MY VEHICLE AND THE GROUND, ITS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS
DURING REFUELING, WHEN TANK IS FULL FUEL OVERFLOWS OUT OF THE FILLER AS THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. EVERY TIME AT EVERY GAS STATION. VERY DANGEROUS, GAS ON THE SIDE OF JEEP AND ON THE GROUND.
2007 JEEP WRANGLER. I HAVE EXPERIENCED EXCESSIVE HOOD FLUTTER. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IF THERE IS ANY WIND. BASED ON EVENTS IN THIS POST ON WRANGHLERFORUMS. (HTTP://WWW.WRANGLERFORUM.COM/F274/HOOD-FLUTTER-ON-2017-HARD-ROCK-ALMOST-KILLED-ME-DEALER-REFUSES-TO-FIX-2283538.HTML) I HAVE SPENT $125 AND CHANGES OUT THE HOOD LATCHES ON MY JK.. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT.
WHEN GOING 55MPH DOWN THE ROAD ,IT BEGINS TO SHAKE WITH NO WARNING,I SEEN WHERE SOME PEOPLE CALL IT THE DEATH WOBBLE,IN ORDER FOR IT TO STOP SHAKING YOU HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP,AND THIS HAPPENS WHEN WE DRIVE IT OUT OF TOWN ,AND WE HAVE OWENED THIS JEEP SINCE 9/14/2015 WE BOUGHT IT USED
WAS INVOLVED IN COLLISION AT 35-45 MPH WHERE DRIVER AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY TO DRIVER. THIS VEHICLE WAS I'M FORWARD MOTION ON A RURAL STREET. WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTICES OF AIRBAG DRIVER SIDE RECALLS
THE M-19 FUSE KEEPS BLOWIG
I OPENED THE DOOR TO THE JEEP AND THE WIPERS, HORN AND WIPER FLUID ENGAGED NON-STOP WITHOUT A KEY IN THE IGNITION. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THEM WAS TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY. WHEN THE BATTERY CABLES ARE RECONNECTED, THE HORN, WIPERS AND WIPER FLUID SPRAYER ARE AGAIN ENGAGED. ON QUICK RESEARCH, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THIS IS A KNOWN TIPM FAILURE ISSUE THAT CAN ALSO EFFECT THE AIRBAG (PREVENTING DEPLOYMENT AS WELL AS RANDOMLY ENGAGING IT WHILE DRIVING), FUEL INJECTION CAUSING SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER AND VEHICLE CONTROL AS WELL AS ISSUES WITH LIGHTS AND GAUGES. ISSUES WERE SEVERE ENOUGH TO ISSUE A RECALL ON 2007 YEAR MODELS BUT SIMILAR ISSUES WITH THE 2008 ARE NOT ADDRESSED. I WAS FORTUNATE THE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE WHEN THE TIPM FAILED AND NOT DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 2-DR 4X4. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V352000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE CONTACT CALLED A DEALER AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE RECALL REMEDY PARTS WERE ON BACKORDER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE ISSUE, BUT DID NOT OFFER ASSISTANCE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR WAS ILLUMINATED AND A TICKING NOISE COULD BE HEARD COMING FROM THE DASHBOARD. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.
WHILE REFILLING THE GAS TANK, AS THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF IT SPILLS GAS ALL OVER THE FLOOR. IT ALMOST SPILLED ALL OVERON ME.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 2-DR 4X4. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO REVERSE THE VEHICLE, THE GEAR SHIFT FAILED TO SWITCH GEARS WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE GEAR CONNECTOR LINK FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT NOT BY THE DEALER. THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000.
WHILE COMING OFF THE HIGHWAY I NOTICED MY ENGINE MAKE A 'CLICKING' NOISE, DIDN'T SOUD TOO SERIOUS, BUT CHECKED OIL LEVEL AND SEEMED TO HAVE BEEN BARELY ANY OIL IN IT. IT WAS AROUND SCHEDULED OIL CHANGE DATE, HOWEVER TOOK TO A MECHANIC AND HE THOUGHT AND ASSUMED WAS THE IDLER PULLEY AND CHANGED IT. DROVE IT SAME NIGHT AND WAS STILL MAKING SAME NOISE. TOOK IT BACK AND HE JUST SPOKE WITH A 'CHRYSLER SERVICE PERSONNEL' AND STATED "CHRYSLER HAD A BAD ENGINE CASTING FOR MOLDING THE ENGINES AND AT HIGH TEMPERATURES THE ENGINE ITSELF WILL WARP." SO NOT SURE IF THIS IS TRUE, AND I DO NOT HAVE THE MONEY TO TAKE TO A DEALERSHIP AND CONFIRM.
WHEN DRIVING AT 40 MPH OR FASTER THE CAR WILL HIT A BUMP AND START SHAKING VIOLENTLY TO THE POINT WHERE LOSS OF CONTROL COULD OCCUR. COULD POSSIBLY BE JUST THE TIRES, BUT SEEMS A LOT OF EARLIER JK WRANGLERS SUFFER FROM THIS.
TAKATA RECALL: I HAVE RECEIVED THREE NOTICES FROM FCA ABOUT THE CRITICAL NEED TO HAVE MY VEHICLE REPAIRED, AND YET FOR SIX MONTHS NOW, THEY DO NOT HAVE THE PART AVAILABLE.

I HAVE REPEATEDLY REACHED OUT TO THEIR DEALERS WHO CLAIM THAT THEY ARE AT THE MERCY OF THE FACTORY TO SUPPLY THE PARTS NEEDED. YOUR INTERVENTION WOULD BE APPRECIATED SINCE THEY DO NOT RESPECT OR RESPOND TO ME. I HAVE HAD NO INCIDENTS OTHER THAN THE REPETITIVE WARNING LETTERS FROM THE FACTORY, AND THEIR NOT BEING ABLE TO RESOLVE THE MATTER DESPITE THEIR TELLING ME THAT THE FAILURE TO ADDRESS THIS MATTER IMMEDIATELY MIGHT RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. IF THEY ARE SENDING OUT NOTICES LIKE THIS, THEY SHOULD BE COMPELLED TO RESOLVE IT RIGHT AWAY.

PURCHASED A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER LESS THAN A COUPLE YEARS AGO WITH AROUND 53K MILES. I HAVE JUST START EXPERIENCING WHAT IS KNOWN AS DEATH WOBBLE, IN THE MIDDLE OF MY TRIP FROM COLORADO TO VIRGINIA AND THE JEEP HAS BEEN SHAKING VIOLENTLY AT RANDOM INTERVALS ON THE HIGHWAY. THIS IS KNOWN AS I SEEN OVER 200 COMPLAINTS ONLINE AND CHRYSLER REFUSES TO TAKE RESPONSIBILITY AND RECALL THESE JEEPS . I AM TAKING TO DEALER BUT I WON'T STOP UNTIL CHRYSLER REIMBURSES FOR THESE REPAIRS AND WANT OTHER PEOPLE INCLUDED THE GOVERNMENT TO LOOK INTO THIS.

VEHICLE IS EXHIBITING AN UNSAFE SPEED WOBBLE WHILE DRIVING ABOVE 40 MPH, VEHICLE ONLY HAS 50K MILES, I ALREADY HAD ALL OF THE SUSPENSION COMPONENTS REPLACED AND THE CONDITION REMAINS, CHRYSLER/JEEP AS A MANUFACTURER SHOULD COME UP WITH A REPAIR WHETHER IT IS COVERED BY MANUFACTURER OR BY CUSTOMER PAID, THERE SHOULD BE A PROPER REPAIR FOR THE PROBLEM, THIS CONDITION COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND INJURY
AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT AND CHIME WITH NO KNOWN DAMAGE TO VEHICLE.
MULTIPLE TIMES YESTERDAY, STARTING WITH (WHICH I THOUGHT NOTHING OF INITIALLY) THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT TURNING ON WHILE THE JEEP WAS IN PARK NOT MOVING. SHORTLY THERE AFTER WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A HIGHWAY ABOUT 45-55 MPH A KNOCK OR CLUNK WAS FELT BENEATH THE FLOOR, IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY THE EAS, TRACTION CONTROL, ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED, THE AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHED, THE WIPERS RUNNING EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE OFF, A HARD PULL TO THE RIGHT AND HIGH RUNNING/INCREASING RPM'S ON A LEVEL ROAD WITH MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR. I HIT THE HAZARDS, PULLED OFF THE ROAD, LOOKED AT, IN AND UNDER THE JEEP, NOTHING LOOKED AMISS. MY HUSBAND TOOK OVER THE DRIVE, MADE IT ROUGHLY 8-10 MILES WITH OUT ISSUE AND THAN AGAIN EVERYTHING ABOVE BUT IN ADDITION THIS TIME THE HORN BLARED FOR PROBABLY 2 MINUTES, IF NOT MORE, HE PULLED OVER SHUT IT OFF TURNED IT ON WE WENT HOME, WAITED ABOUT 2 HOURS, DROVE ABOUT 15 BLOCKS CITY ROADS WITH HILLS AND TURNS LESS THAN 25MPH ROUND TRIP AND NOTHING HAPPENED. MIGHT BE WORTH MENTIONING, FOR THE LAST MONTH OR SO IN HIGH HEAT 80 DEGREES AND UP, IT HASN'T BEEN STARTING THE FIRST FEW TURNS, BUT THE BATTERY IS LESS THAN 6 MONTHS OLD.
MY AIR BAG LIGHT KEPT COMING ON AND TURNING OFF. FINALLY I HAD MY JEEP LOOKED AT AND I CAME BACK THAT THE CLOCKSPRING IS BAD. ITS ABOUT $500 TO HAVE IT FIXED AND I DONT HAVE THE MONEY. ALSO IT HAD 60,000 MI ON IT AT THE TIME. I'VE BEEN ON JEEP FORUMS AND THIS IS A CONTINUING ISSUE WITH JEEPS. WHY HAVE THE 08'S BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS PROBLEM AND NOT THE 07'S? CAN THIS BE LOOKED INTO PLEASE? I HAVE CALLED CHRYSLER ABOUT THIS AND THEY DONT CARE I WOULD REALLY HATE TO GET INTO A WRECK SEEING HOW I DONT HAVE AIRBAGS
