FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN REFUELING THE VEHICLE, THE FUEL DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF AND SPLASHES OUT DOWN THE SIDE THE VEHICLE, ONTO THE GROUND AND ALL OVER THE PERSON FUELING THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE REFUELED. NOTHING HAS BEEN FOUND TO STOP THIS FROM HAPPENING. THE DEALER IS UNWILLING TO ASSIST IN SOLVING THE PROBLEM. *TR

SUSPENSION, STEERING
I HAVE A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4 DOOR THAT I PURCHASED NEW. APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR AGO I NOTICED THAT AROUND 50MPH THE VEHICLE WOULD SHAKE AND YOU ALMOST HAD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP TO GET THE SHAKE TO STOP. THE SHAKE IS NOT ALWAYS VIOLENT, THOUGH IT IS PROGRESSIVELY BECOMING MORE VIOLENT EVERY TIME. ONCE THE SHAKING WAS SO VIOLENT THAT I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND ALMOST WENT INTO THE DITCH. YESTERDAY IT WAS SO VIOLENT THAT I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND WAS VERY CLOSE TO RUNNING INTO A DUMP TRUCK. A FRIEND HAPPENED TO BE DRIVING BEHIND ME AND SAID IT LOOKED AS IF THE ENTIRE JEEP WAS GOING TO SHAKE APART AND THE WHEELS LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE GOING TO FALL OFF. I HAVE HAD THE JEEP LOOKED AT AND INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC AND NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT. AS I RESEARCH THIS ONLINE IT SEEMS MANY JEEP OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE LABELED IT THE "DEATH WOBBLE". CHRYSLER DOES NOT SEEM TO BE RESPONDING TO THE PROBLEM THOUGH THEY APPEAR TO BE AWARE ACCORDING TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP. AT THIS POINT I AM SCARED TO DRIVE MY OWN VEHICLE AND WILL NOT LET MY WIFE DRIVE IT NOR DO I WANT TO PUT MY CHILD IN IT. I AM LODGING THIS COMPLAINT IN HOPES THAT THIS WILL GET INVESTIGATED AND HOPEFULLY CHRYSLER WILL UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT NUMEROUS JEEP OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING. I DON'T KNOW WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO FIX IT. I DO BELIEVE THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL SINCE SO MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS BEFORE IT REALLY CAUSES SOMEONE TO BE INJURED OR DIE BECAUSE THEY LOOSE CONTROL OF THEIR VEHICLE. I WAS REALLY ALARMED TO SEE THAT IT IS SO COMMON PEOPLE HAVE NAMED IT "DEATH WOBBLE". *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
EVERY FEW TIMES I FILL MY GAS TANK, IT OVERFLOWS. THIS CAUSES THE GAS TO SPLASH BACK AT ME, SPILL ON THE CAR, AND POOL ON THE FLOOR. THIS PROBLEM BEGAN WHEN I HAD ABOUT 30,000 MILES ON MY VEHICLE. IT IS PROGRESSIVELY GETTING WORSE AND NOW OCCURS MORE FREQUENTLY. TO REMEDY THIS PROBLEM, I HAVE NOT BEEN TOPPING OFF MY TANK. *TR

SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2002 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 10 MPH APPROACHING A STOP SIGN WHEN HE APPLIED THE BRAKES BUT THE VEHICLE DID NOT SLOW DOWN. THE BRAKE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AFTER THE FAILURE OCCURRED. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN UPON THE CURB TO STOP IT AND THEN TOWED TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE ENTIRE REAR BRAKE SYSTEM WAS REPLACED. THERE WAS A RECALL UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER 06E022000 (SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC) BUT THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 144,000.

STRUCTURE
I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. THERE IS A RECALL FOR 2007-2010 WRANGLERS FOR THE FENDER FLARE RUBBING ON A BRAKE TUBE CAUSING FAILURES. WHEN I LEARNED ABOUT THE RECALL I CHECKED MY JEEP AND SURE ENOUGH IT HAS THAT EXACT ISSUE. WHEN CONTACTING CHRYSLER, THEY SAID MY JEEP WAS NOT PART OF THE RECALL. WHEN PUSHED THAT I HAD THE EXACT SAME CONDITIONS THE RECALL ADDRESSED, THEY SAID TO TAKE IT TO A DEALER AND PAY FOR AN INSPECTION. IF FOUND TO BE SIMILAR, THEY WOULD OFFER ASSISTANCE (WITHOUT AGREEING TO 100% COVERAGE) TO FIX IT. IT IS UNACCEPTABLE THAT EVEN THOUGH MY JEEP HAS THE EXACT ISSUE ADDRESSED IN THE RECALL THAT THEY REFUSE TO INCLUDE IT IN THE RECALL BECAUSE OF THE VIN NOT BEING PART OF THE OFFICIAL RECALL LOT. *TR

ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING:ENGINE
I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA THAT I HAVE OWNED SINCE IT HAD 100 MILES ON IT. IT IS BURNING THROUGH OIL A LOT. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP FOR OILS CONSUMPTIONS TEST AND THEY SAY IT IS NORMAL TO BURN THROUGH 1 QUART OF OIL FOR EVERY 750 MILES. FIGURED THIS OUT BECAUSE EVERYTIME I WAS GETTING AN OIL CHANGE (WAS USING SYNTHETIC) AT 6K I WAS BEING TOLD THE OIL WAS BONE DRY. NOT GOOD. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
EVERYTIME I REFUEL, GASOLINE WILL OVERFLOW AND SPILL ONTO THE GROUND. THE PUMP WILL NOT STOP THE FLOW OF FUEL IN TIME TO PREVENT SPILLAGE. I'VE TRIED TO SLOW THE FLOW AS IT NEARS A FULL TANK, BUT THE PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED. THE ONLY THING THAT WILL STOP THE FUEL FROM OVERFLOWING IS SIMPLY NOT FILLING THE TANK COMPLETELY FULL. I HAVE TO STOP AT ABOUT 7/8THS. *TR

JUST PURCHASED A USED 2007 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED AND HAVE YET TO FIGURE OUT HOW TO FUEL UP WITHOUT MASSIVE OVERFLOW AT FULL. NEVER HAVE I EXPERIENCED SUCH A LARGE AMOUNT OF OVERFLOW ON ANY OTHER VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED. THIS OCCURS ON THE FIRST SHUT OFF AT FULL, NOT UNDER TOPPING OFF (WHICH I KNOW SHOULD NOT BE DONE). I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE SAME OVERFLOW AT EVERY FUEL UP AND AT DIFFERENT FUEL STATIONS. *TR
