EQUIPMENT
I HAVE HAD A "HOT OIL" LIGHT COME ON MY 2009 JEEP WRANGLER A FEW TIMES. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND THERE IS A RECALL OUT ON THIS ISSUE ALREADY FOR THOSE PEOPLE WHO DO NOT HAVE THE "HOT OIL" LIGHT. THIS IS NOT A FIX! ALL THIS LIGHT IS DOING IS SAYING THAT YOUR TRANSMISSION IS HOT ENOUGH TO THE POINT TO CAUSE A FIRE.

POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
MY 2008 JEEP RUBICON HAS BEEN JUMPING OUT OF 1ST GEAR WHEN ENTERING INTERSECTIONS ETC... SINCE IT WAS NEW. AFTER 10 MONTHS OF COMPLAINING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND OVER 1 DOZEN NEAR MISSES AT INTERSECTIONS (I STOPPED ALOWING MY KIDS TO EVEN DRIVE IN THIS VEHICLE AFTER THE FIRST INCIDENT WHERE WE WERE ALMOST BROADSIDED BY A TRUCK) A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN WAS ISSUED BY CHRYSLER WHERE IF SOMEONE COMPLAINED THEY WOULD CHANGE A SYNCHRONIZER ASSEMBLY. THERE ARE MANY MANY OTHERS COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME ISSUE AND CHRYSLER HAS CHOSEN TO PUT OTHERS AT RISK AS THE ISSUE IS STILL NOT FIXED ON NEW VEHICLES BUT REQUIRES THE TSB TO BE PERFORMED TO REMEDY (MAYBE IT FIXES IT BUT I AM STILL NOT CONVINCED). I KNOW THIS AS I ASKED FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION AND WAS TOLD BY CHRYSLER THAT EVEN NEW TRANSMISSIONS HAVE THIS ISSUE. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED (OR PERHAPS THERE ARE ALREADY FATALITIES) IF THERE IS NOT A TOTAL RECALL TO FIX THIS DANGEROUS SAFETY ISSUE.

TIRES:VALVE
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE SWITCHING TO HIS WINTER TIRES, THERE WAS SOME SORT OF CHEMICAL REACTION THAT CAUSED THE VALVE STEM TO BREAK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE FOUR VALVES WERE REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE VALVE STEM ON THE SPARE TIRE WAS NOT. THEREFORE, WHEN THE CONTACT WAS SWITCHING THE SPARE TIRE WITH A FLAT ONE, HE EXPERIENCED A BLOWOUT WITH THE SPARE WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND THE DEALER IN REFERENCE TO THE FAILURE AND WAS INFORMED THAT THEY WERE AWARE OF THE PROBLEM. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 4,853.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
STARTING WHEN THE VEHICLE HAD APPROX 30K MILES, THE HANDLE AT THE GAS STATION WOULD SHUT OFF ONE TO TWO SECONDS AFTER GAS WOULD COME SPRAYING OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS OR HANDLE STYLES HAD NO EFFECT ON THE PROBLEM. I DID DISCOVER THAT IF FILLED VERY SLOWLY, IT WOULD CLICK OFF BEFORE OVERFILLING; HOWEVER, THE PROBLEM IS PROGRESSIVE AND THAT METHOD IS NO LONGER EFFECTIVE. LAST WEEK (MARCH 21ST 2010) I WENT TO ADD GAS AND FOUND THAT THE HANDLE WOULD CLICK OFF INSTANTLY WHEN MORE THAN 1/4 FLOW WAS ATTEMPTED, EVEN THOUGH THE GAS TANK WAS EMPTY. ATTEMPTS AT REMOVING THE GAS TANK AND ASSOCIATED COMPONENTS HAVE FOUND NO OBSTRUCTIONS OR OBVIOUS DAMAGE; HOWEVER THE MALFUNCTION REMAINS. *CN

I OWN A 2006 JEEP RUBICON WRANGLER... EVERY FILL UP THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS SPILLING AT LEAST 2-3 CUPS WORTH OF GASOLINE ALL OVER MY JEEP, THE GROUND AND SOMETIMES ON ME. I FEEL THIS IS NOT ONLY A SAFTEY HAZARD BUT AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD AS WELL.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
EVERYTIME THE GAS TANK IS FILLED UP, FUEL COMES LAUNCHING OUT FROM AROUND THE PUMP HANDLE SPRAYING ANYONE STANDING WITHIN A COUPLE OF FEET OF THE PUMP. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED, AT EVERY GAS STATION. JEEP HAS SUGGESTED A REPLACEMENT TANK, BUT WITH NO ASSURANCES THAT IT WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE RESULTS OF A ONLINE SEARCH INDICATES A REPLACEMENT TANK WILL NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
2005 JEEP WRANGLER LJ/TJ RUBICON UNLIMITED WHEN FILLING UP WITH GASOLINE THE TANK OVERFLOWS OUT OF THE VEHICLE SPRAYING ONTO THE OPERARTOR OF THE GAS PUMP AND FLOODING THE IMMEDIATE AREA AND ON THE GROUND. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND THE OPERATOR OF THE PUMP IS COVERED IN GAS AND FUMES THIS COULD CAUSE A FIRE AND DAMAGE TO THE SKIN AND EYES; IN WORSE CASE SCENARIO AN EXPLOSION IF A CELL PHONE IS IN ONES POCKET OR NEARBY. PLEASE RECALL THESE VEHICLES IMMEDIATELY; IT HAPPENS TO ALMOST EVERY JEEP WRANGLER AND EVENTUALLY WILL EFFECT ALL. THIS IS NOT FROM TOPPING OFF OR USING A HIGH PRESSURE GAS NOZZLE OR ONE GAS STATION. THIS HAPPENS NO MATTER WHERE I AM AND IF I DON'T TIME IF CORRECTLY GASOLINE WILL BE ALL OVER THE PLACE. ALTHOUGH NOT SERIOUS, AT ONE TIME GASOLINE DID SPRAY ENOUGH ON A WINDY DAY TO HIT ME IN THE EYE CAUSING A BURNING SENSATION AND REDNESS OBVIOUSLY I COULD NOT OPERATE THE VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. IF A YOUNG CHILD IS NEAR BY THIS WOULD BE A SERIOUS ISSUE.
