TIRES:PRESSURE MONITORING AND REGULATING SYSTEMS
GOT LOW AIR WARNING FROM TPMS. WENT TO GAS STATION CHECKED PRESSURE IT WAS 28PSI. ATTEMPTED TO ADD AIR AND STEM BROKE COMPLETELY OFF. WENT TO DEALER AND HAD TO REPLACE STEM. I SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE IN COLD WEATHER FOR NUMEROUS CHRYSLER AND JEEP BRANDED VEHICLES WITH TPMS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING OR LEAVES PEOPLE STRANDED. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:HORN
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

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED HAVING FUEL SPEW FROM FILLER PIPE WHEN FILLING TANK. THIS OCCURS JUST AS TANK IS FULL AND FUEL PUMP AUTOMATICALLY STOPS. THE AMOUNT OF FUEL SPILLED IS ABOUT 500 CC AND COMES OUT AS A BUBBLY MIXTURE. THE FUEL SPILLS ON THE VEHICLE AND ON TO THE GROUND. IT WILL GET ON THE PERSON FILLING IF STANDING CLOSE. THE PROBLEMS STARTED AT ABOUT 37K MILES AND IS NOW OCCURRING WITH NEARLY EVERY FILL-UP. THERE IS NO WARNING THAT THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN THAT WOULD ALLOW ONE TO STOP THE PUMP BEFORE THE OVERFLOW OCCURS. *TR

STEERING, SUSPENSION:FRONT
WHEN DRIVING THE JEEP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE FRONT END WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY. IT BECOMES VERY HARD TO STEER THE JEEP. YOU HAVE TO ALMOST COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE THE SHAKING WILL STOP. SHAKING HAS A SIMILAR FEEL TO A TIRE BLOW OUT. MY JEEP HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IT STARTED AT ABOUT 12,000 MILES. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE STABILIZER SHOCK 2 TIMES BUT THAT DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE STOCK JK MODEL WRANGLER JEEP. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS BEFORE SOMEBODY GETS SERIOUSLY HURT. THERE IS PLENTY OF ACCOUNTS OF THIS ON THE INTERNET. YOU CAN SEE VIDEO ON YOUTUBE. JUST SEARCH ON JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I OWN A 2009 JEEP WRANGLER 2 DOOR MODEL THAT HAS BEEN HAVING ISSUES WHEN I FILL UP MY GAS TANK. I HAVE SEEN ON NUMEROUS ONLINE FORUMS THAT I AM NOT ALONE IN THIS MATTER. WHEN I USE THE PUMP TO FILL MY TANK IT WILL AUTO SHUT OFF THE PUMP THEN SPEW AT LEAST 2-3 CUPS OF GASOLINE OUT OF THE GAS INTAKE ONTO THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE, GROUND AND ON OCCASION MYSELF. I HAVE READ THAT MANY HAVE ALSO FILLED A COMPLIANT SO THAT CHRYSLER WILL PERFORM A RECALL WHILE OTHERS HAVE PAID OUT OF POCKET TO FIX THIS ISSUES. I DO NOT FEEL THAT IT IS FAIR TO HAVE PAYING CUSTOMERS PAY FOR AN OBVIOUS DESIGN OR FUEL SYSTEM FLAW.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
GAS WILL SPILL OUT (SPLASH) FROM THE FILLER TUBE BECAUSE THE AUTOMATIC FUEL SHUTOFF FEATURE ON GAS PUMPS WILL NOT DETECT FUEL FILL LEVEL UNTIL TOO LATE. GAS WILL USUALLY HEMORRHAGE ENOUGH TO SPLASH OUT OF THE TUBE AND RUN DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND COLLECT ON THE BUMPER. IF YOU STAND TOO CLOSE IN SOME CASES YOU MIGHT GET GAS ON YOUR CLOTHING. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH LATE MODEL JEEP JK MODELS

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN REFUELING, AS YOU NEAR FULL, THE PUMP WILL SHUT OFF, AND YOU WILL GET A BIG SPLASH BACK OF GASOLINE( ABOUT 2-5 CUPS). IT WILL SPLASH BACK ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND RUBBER FENDER AND REAR PLASTIC BUMPER. EVEN IF YOU TRY TO GUESS WHEN ITS NEARING FULL, IT STILL SEEMS TO BE SOME BACK SPLASH WHEN YOU SHUT IT OFF NEAR FULL

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
JK/ GAS TANK OVERFLOWS/WILL NOT SHUT OFF. ON MORE THEN 1 OCCASION THE GAS TANK ON MY 2007 JK JEEP WRANGLER HAS FAILED TO SHUT OFF WHEN FILLING UP AND SPILLS ALL OVER THE REAR OF THE JEEP AND THE GROUND. 2 JEEP DEALERS IN FAIRFAX, VA HAVE TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED A NEW TANK. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WITH INTERCONTINENTAL WARRANTY SERVICE (IWS) AND THEY REFUSE TO AUTHORIZE THE WORK. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF CANCELING THE WARRANTY AND FILING A COMPLAINT AGAINST THEM. A OF RIGHT NOW I STILL NEED A GAS TANK BUT CANNOT FIND ONE ONLINE, SEEMS ONLY DEALERS HAVE THEM RIGHT NOW FOR 2007-2010 MODEL YEARS. ALSO THE SOFT TOP LEAKS VERY BAD AT THE TOP OF THE DOOR/ROOF PILLARS BOTH SIDES WHEN IT RAINS. ALSO HAVE HAD THIS IN TO THE SAME 2 JEEP DEALERS AND BOTH SAY I NEED A TO AS IT IS A DESIGN FLAW. BOTH HAS LEAK SPECIALISTS LOOK AT IT AND REPLACE HEADER AND DOOR SEALS BUT STILL LEAKS JUST AS BAD. AS A LIFE LONG JEEP OWNER I AM COMPLETELY FED UP WITH THE JEEP BRAND. A LITTLE SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET TELLS ME THAT THESE 2 ISSUES ARE WELL KNOWN BUT THAT JEEP IS REFUSING TO ADDRESS THEM SO PEOPLE LIKE ME HAVE TO PAY MORE MONEY OUT OF POCKET. THESE 2 ISSUES ARE CLEARLY SAFETY RELATED, GAS SPILLING OUT AND HITTING A HOT EXHAUST IS A MAJOR PROBLEM, THE SAME WITH WATER GETTING INTO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FILLED WITH GASOLINE, GASOLINE EXITS THE TANK THROUGH THE FILLER TUBE AND SPLASHES ON THE GROUND LEAVING A POTENTIAL FOR FIRE. THIS HAPPENS AT PUMPS AT DIFFERENT STATIONS IN DIFFERENT STATES, DIFFERENT AMOUNTS OF FUEL WITHIN BEFORE FUELING, AND REGARDLESS OF PLACEMENT OF THE FILLING HANDLE OF THE PUMP. THE VEHICLE WORKED AS IT SHOULD FOR THE FIRST 25K MILES AND WILL NOT FILL CORRECTLY SINCE THAT TIME WITHOUT LEAVING FUEL ON THE GROUND. THIS IS MY SECOND 2007 JEEP WRANGLER AND BOTH HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AT APPROXIMATELY THE SAME MILEAGE. EACH VEHICLE WAS FILLED WITH THE CORRECT GASOLINE AS PRESCRIBED BY THE MANUAL AND ALL MAINTENANCE WAS DONE AT A 5 STAR JEEP DEALER ON BOTH. THERE APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE DESIGN OF THE GAS SYSTEM.

I HAVE A 2010 SPORT WRANGLER UNLIMITED 4DR, AT APPROX 3800 MILES THE CAR WENT DEAD ON THE HIGHWAY AT APPROX 60MPH. ALL THE INDICATOR LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE STEERING AND BRAKES WERE HARD TO CONTROL. MOMENTARILY THE CAR RESUMED AND WENT BACK TO DEALER. HAVE MAINTENANCE SLIPS AND INITIAL COMPLAINT. SAME INCIDENT HAPPENED AT APPROX 4700 MILES WENT BACK TO SAME DEALER. CHECKED ONLINE WITH CHRYSLER ALTHOUGH THE FIRST TIME THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION COIL. IT HASN'T BEEN RESOLVED AND I DON'T BELIEVE IT WILL BE RESOLVED AT THE DEALER LEVEL. *TR
