FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I BOUGHT A USED 2007 JEEP WRANGLER IN JUNE OF 2010. A COUPLE MONTHS AFTER OWNING THE VEHICLE, I NOTICED THAT IF I LEFT THE GASOLINE PUMP ON AUTOMATIC, THE PUMP WOULD CUT OFF AND GASOLINE WOULD GUSH OUT FROM THE TANK, SPILLING ON THE VEHICLE AND GROUND BELOW. THIS HAPPENED AT VARIOUS STATIONS AND EVERY TIME I WENT TO FILL MY TANK TO FULL. TO PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING, I ONLY FILL MY TANK TO 3/4 FULL. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
ON THE FIRST DAY JEEP GAVE ME MY NEW TRUCK I TOOK THE JEEP TO THE NEAREST GAS STATION TO FILL UP THE TANK FOR THE FIRST TIME. WHEN THE TANK FILLED UP, IT SPILLED FUEL ALL OVER THE GROUND , TRUCK AND GAS STATION PERSONNEL WHO WAS REFUELING THE TRUCK ( THERE IS PERSONNEL IN CHARGE OF REFUELING IN GAS STATIONS IN MY COUNTRY : PERU SOUTHAMERICA ) MY 2010 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON UNLIMITED 4 DR WAS BOUGHT ON THIS FEBRUARY OF 2011 , AND KEEPS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM . MY CONCERN IS THAT SINCE MY TRUCK IS NOT ON THE U.S TERRITORY ( BUT MANUFACTURED ON THE U.S ) JEEP ON MY COUNTRY WILL TRY TO AVOID TAKING CARE OF MANY OF THE RECALLS BEEN MADE ALREADY TO THE BRAKING SYSTEM , WHICH I HAVE READ AFTER I BOUGHT THE TRUCK. IS EVERY JEEP DEALER ( EVEN OUTSIDE U.S ) OBLIGATED TO CALL HIS JEEP WRANGLER CUSTOMERS FOR RECALLS ???..... CAUSE THEY HAVE NOT TOLD ME ANYTHING YET ABOUT EVERYTHING WRITTEN ON THE WEB. *TR

2006 RUBICON WITH 40K MILES. FUEL SPRAYS OUT FROM THE GASOLINE FILL TUBE AND RUNS DOWN THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE ONTO THE PAVEMENT EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS REFUELED. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THE FUEL TANK MUST BE REPLACED TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO PAY FOR A NEW FUEL TANK WITH THE SAME DEFECT. THIS IS APPARENTLY A WIDESPREAD ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
2007 JEEP WRANGLER JK SAHARA UNLIMITED, ISSUE STARTED AROUND 40,000 MILES. CURRENT MILEAGE IS 63,000 MILES. FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLED AT THE PUMP. NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION I USE, NO MATTER WHAT PUMP I USE, THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS ON FILL UP. THE HANDLE FOR THE PUMP HAS CLICKED OFF AND STOPPED FUELING, BUT GAS SPEWS OUT FROM THE GAS FILL ON MY JEEP AND GROUND AND A COUPLE TIMES EVEN ONTO MY CLOTHING. I HAVE HAD TO GO BACK HOME AND CHANGE CLOTHES BECAUSE SO MUCH GAS SPEWED ONTO MY CLOTHING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE FILED FOR THIS ISSUE. CHRYSLER ISSUED A TSB 14-001-11 ON FEBRUARY 11, 2011 FOR THIS BUT IS ONLY BUILD DATES OF MARCH 07- 08. MY BUILD DATE IS IN 2006. GRANTED, I HAVE NOT INCURRED ANY DAMAGE, THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO MYSELF AND SOME GAS STATIONS HAVE EVEN HAD TO SHUT DOWN TO CLEAN UP THE SPILL. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR NUMEROUS JEEPS AND NEEDS TO INCLUDE MANY DIFFERENT BUILD DATES OUTSIDE OF THE RECENTLY ISSUED TSB. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD IDLE IMPROPERLY AND STALL INTERMITTENTLY. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WOULD ALSO ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHO ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE OIL PICKUP DRIVE ASSEMBLY WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. BOTH THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED AND WERE AWARE OF THE ISSUE; HOWEVER, INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE PARTS TO REPAIR THE FAILURE WERE ON BACK ORDER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 29,556 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.

POWER TRAIN, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING
I WOULD LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT A 2006 RHD JEEP WRANGLER I PURCHASED FROM [XXX]. ON 4/01/10. LEMON IS NOT THE WORD. BEFORE DRIVING OFF THE LOT WITH VEH. I NOTICED THE FAN SWITCH FOR THE AC/HEATER ONLY OPERATED ON HIGH SPEED. HOURS LATER THE DEALERSHIP FINALLY REPLACED THE SWITCH FROM SOMEONES PERSONAL VEH. BECAUSE THE SWITCH IS SO HARD TO COME BY APPARENTLY. WITHIN 2 MOS THE SWITCH FOR THE FAN WENT OUT AGAIN. HAD TO WAIT ANOTHER 3 MOS. (ON BACK ORDER) THE GEAR SHIFTER CABLE BROKE NEXT AND HAD CAR TOWED AND REPAIRED. ALSO, IT WAS RUNNING EXTREMELY HOT, I WOULD HAVE TO SHUT VEH. DOWN TO COOL. THEN TO TOP IT OFF ON AUG. 13TH 2010 THE TRANS FELL OUT ON MY WAY TO WORK. I BOUGHT THE VEH ON APR 1ST (FOOLS DAY) AND BOY WAS I FOOLED. I THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE A DEPENDABLE, RELIABLE VEH. FOR MY JOB, THE POSTAL SVC EVEN GIVES $1000 INCENTIVES FOR THEIR CARRIERS TO BUY JEEPS. BIGGEST MISTAKE I'VE EVER MADE. I COULD OF LOST MY JOB TRYING TO DRIVE THIS JEEP IF MY BOSS HADN'T BEEN UNDERSTANDING ABOUT ALL THE BREAKDOWNS AND DOWNTIMES I HAD. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND A JEEP TO MY WORST ENEMY. JEEP TO ME STANDS FOR JUST EMPTY EACH POCKET. EVEN JEEP WONT STAND BEHIND THEIR VEH. CAN'T BUY EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR A RHD JEEP THEY DESIGNED TO DELIVER MAIL IN. IS THAT A JOKE OR WHAT? I HAVE OWNED NUMEROUS VEH. AND NOT PAID NEAR THE PRICE I DID FOR THIS JEEP AND THIS HAS TO BE THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. BE SMART DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE I DID. IF YOU DO BUY A JEEP BETTER BUY IT BRAND NEW UNDER WARRANTY CAUSE YOU WILL NEED IT. BIG TIME. AND GET OUT FROM UNDER IT BEFORE THE WARRANTY GOES OUT. THE DEALERSHIP NOR THE MANUFACTURES OF THE JEEP WERE WILLING TO HELP ME AT ALL. I WAS STUCK WITH IT AND NOTHING I COULD DO. I AM JUST NOW (6 MOS. LATER)REBUILDING THE TRANS. I HAD TO HAVE A BREAK FROM IT. I WAS TIRED OF STAYING STRESSED OUT AND UPSET. AS SOON AS IT IS REPAIRED I AM TRADING IT. GET A WARRANTY FOR SURE.

MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER JK 2 DOOR SAHARA OVERFLOWS WHILE FILLING UP WITH GAS. IT HAPPENED SPORADICALLY OVER THE LAST 2.5 YEARS, BUT IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS IT HAS HAPPENED EVERY OTHER FILL-UP. THE LAST 5 FILL-UPS ALL OVERFLOWED SPILLING GAS ON THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE AND ON THE GROUND. I CONTACTED MY DEALER AND THEY ORDERED A NEW GAS TANK AND A "TUBE"... WAITING TO SEE IF THAT RECTIFIES THE PROBLEM. SEVERAL OTHER JEEP OWNERS, SPECIFICALLY ON JK FORUMS HAVE NOTED THE SAME ISSUE AND DIRECTED ME TO THIS WEBSITE TO FILE A CONCERN. *TR

STEERING, SUSPENSION
DEATH SHAKE IN FRONT END . STEERING STABILIZER FAILURE. TO REPLACE HAD TO BUY FROM CHRYSLER A MODIFICATION BRACKET AND SHOCK. COULD NOT BUY AFTERMARKET. MY POINT IS I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A BRACKET THAT THEY DID NOT MAKE RIGHT IN THE 1ST PLACE. I ALMOST WAS IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING NORMAL CONDITIONS. THEY COMPARED IT TO A DELL COMPUTER THAT IF I NEEDED A UPGRADE I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. DON'T YOU THINK THAT DRIVING A VEHICLE ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN A COMPUTER SITTING ON A DESK? I DO NOT OFF ROAD AS THIS IS A 2 WHEEL DRIVE JEEP. I LIKE WHAT I DRIVE BUT I THINK THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL BEFORE NOW. *TR
