2007 JEEP WRANGLER WOULD NO START AFTER BEING PARKED FOR 2 DAYS, WAITED 10 MINUTES AND IT STARTED. SAME DAY I WAS DRIVING 65 MPH AND IT STALLED/DIED COMPLETELY WITH ALL DASH LIGHT COMING ON. JEEP WAS HAULED BY A WRECKER TO DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR, THE WRECKER DRIVER DROVE THE JEEP ONTO THE WRECKER AND OFF THE WRECKER. THE DEALERSHIP COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THEY REPLACED THE IGNITION SWITCH. PICKED UP ON 7/23, VEHICLE WAS PARKED FOR A WEE, 8/1-8/3, IT STARTED UP AND DROVE FINE. ON 8/4 PARKED AND IT WOULDN'T START AGAIN. WAITED 1 HOUR AND IT STARTED, DROVE TO DEALERSHIP AGAIN. THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, SO FAR IT SITS FOR 15 MINUTES AFTER STALLING, IT WILL START. THE DEALERSHIP REPROGRAMMED ABS MODULE AND STEERING ANGLE SENSOR ROAD TEST, NO FAULTS AND ALL SENSORS WORKING PROPERLY. DID REPROGRAM TIPM, COULD NOT DUPLICATE STALLING. LEFT DEALERSHIP ON 8/6/09, DROVE 2 DAYS NO PROBLEMS. 8/8 STALLED WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH, ALL DASH LIGHTS CAME ON AND WAS STILL ABLE TO ROLL WINDOWS DOWN. STARTED AFTER 5 MINUTES, PARKED FOR 5 HOURS, CAR STARTED BUT AFTER GOING 20 YDS. THE A/C CUT OFF, BACK ON AND CONTINUED TO DO THIS FOR 30 MINUTES. A/C STARTED RUNNING OK AND THEN THE JEEP STALLED AGAIN TRAVELING 50 MPH, NO WHERE TO GET OFF HIGHWAY, PARKED IN THE ROAD ON A HILL AND WAS ALMOST HIT FROM BEHIND. SHERIFF DEPUTY PULLED UP, CAR STARTED 15 MINUTES LATER AND SHERIFF FOLLOWED ME HOME. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY DON'T KNOW WHAT TO DO AND WANT ME TO LEAVE IT WITH THEM UNTIL THEY CAN DUPLICATE WHILE THEIR. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE IT FOR FEAR OF BEING REARENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. WHEN IT STALLS YOU CAN ONLY TRAVEL A FEW YARDS AND IT'S HARD TO GET OFF THE ROAD TO SAFETY. I HAVE READ ABOUT OTHER 2007 JEEPS DOING THIS AND I TRULY UNDERSTAND THE OTHER DRIVERS FEAR FOR THEIR LIFE. PLEASE INVESTIGATE AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.*TR

STRUCTURE
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S AND PASSENGER SIDE FLOOR AREAS ACCUMULATED AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF WATER. THE FAILURE WAS NOTICED WHENEVER IT RAINED. THERE WAS APPROXIMATELY TWO GALLONS OF WATER COLLECTED ON THE FLOOR AREA. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC FOR INSPECTION. THE MECHANIC PROVIDED A PACKING AROUND THE WINDOWS IN ORDER TO REMEDY THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER ON FIVE SEPARATE OCCASIONS, BUT THEY COULD NOT ASSIST. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED PROPERLY. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 23,000 AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

SUSPENSION
THE PROBLEM IS VIOLENT FRONT END VIBRATION WHEN VEHICLE IS OPERATED BETWEEN 45MPH-55MPH. THE VIBRATION IS SO INTENSE IT CAUSES THE STEERING WHEEL AND FRONT END TO VIBRATE VIOLENTLY. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES OVER 5 YEARS OF OPERATION AND ESPECIALLY AFTER TIRE CHANGES. I HAVE HAD 2 DIFFERENT SETS OF TIRES ON THIS JEEP WHICH WERE BALANCED AND HAVE CONTINUED TO HAVE THIS PROBLEM. IN THE PAST I OVERCAME THIS PROBLEM BY ROTATING THE TIRES UNTIL I FOUND THE TIRE ORIENTATION THAT GAVE THE LEAST AMOUNT OF VIOLENT VIBRATION I HAD THOUGHT THAT I MAY HAVE HAD A HAIRLINE FRACTURE ON ONE OF THE RIMS BUT AFTER INSTALLING NEW RIMS AND THE THIRD SET OF TIRES THE PROBLEM IS BACK AND AS BAD AS EVER. OUT OF FRUSTRATION I TURNED TO THE INTERNET TO FIND OUT IF THEIR ARE ANY OTHER JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM. TO MY SURPRISE AFTER READING SEVERAL INTERNET FORUMS ON JEEP WRANGLERS MANY DO . THIS PROBLEM EVEN HAS A NAME THE JEEP COMMUNITY HAS GIVEN IT THE "DEATH WOBBLE" ! THE PROBLEM SEEMS TO OCCUR IN THE 96-06 TJ BODY STYLE WHICH INCLUDES THE SAHARA,X AND SPORT EDITIONS. THERE ARE NUMEROUS POSSIBLE CAUSES AND REPAIRS THAT PEOPLE HAVE COME UP WITH BUT IT SEEMS AS NO ONE HAS PINPOINTED THE CORRECT REPAIR. THE RECOMMENDED REPAIRS SUGGEST THE TRACTION BAR AND STEERING STABILIZER ARE AT FAULT BUT PEOPLE HAVE HAD MIXED RESULTS REPLACING THESE PARTS. IT APPEARS TO ME THAT THE PEOPLE AT JEEP MUST KNOW ABOUT THIS PROBLEM BUT HAVE FAILED THEIR CUSTOMERS AT REMEDYING THIS HAZARDOUS PROBLEM. *TR

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
1ST ISSUE: THE DASH GAUGES WILL GO OFF AND ON INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE FOUGHT WITH THIS PROBLEM FOR YEARS NOW. THE DEALER OF COURSE DOESN'T KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. NEVER HEARD OF IT. I HAVE COMPLETELY REMOVED THE DASH LOOKING FOR PROBLEMS. BAD GROUNDS? I CAN'T TELL WHERE. I SUSPECT THE PLUGS THE CLUSTER SLIPS INTO. I'VE TRIED TO PULL THE MOUNTS CLOSER FOR A BETTER CONNECTION. IT SEAMED TO WORK FOR A WHILE. THEN IT COMES BACK. A GOOD SOUND BEATING ON THE DASH BRINGS THEM BACK ON. AMAZING WHAT THAT PLASTIC WILL TAKE. ALL THIS STARTED AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED. I REFUSE TO TAKE IT IN AND POUR MONEY AT IT TILL THEY FIGURE IT OUT. ALL I WANT IS TO KNOW HOW TO FIX THE GAUGES. I'M ABOUT READY TO CUT THE WIRES AND SOLDER THEM DIRECTLY ON. 2ND ISSUE: I BEGAN SMELLING PLASTIC BURNING OR SOMETHING. LATER THE HEATER FAN QUIT WORKING. AFTER SOME READING OF THE SERVICE MANUAL, I CHECKED A LOT OF PARTS AND FOUND THE CONTROL/SELECTOR SWITCH UNIT HEATED UP AND PARTIALLY MELTED THE WIRING HARNESS AS WELL AS BURNT INSIDE THE UNIT. BOUGHT ANOTHER AND REPLACED IT. WORKS GREAT NOW. ALL THE FAN POSITIONS WORK AGAIN. THIS SWITCH HAS TO BE REPLACED SO OFTEN I JUST LEAVE THE SCREWS FROM THE CENTER DASH PANEL OFF. EVERY 99 JEEP WRANGLER OWNER I KNOW HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEMS. DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE THERE IS A FIX/RECALL? NOTHING LIKE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND SMELL AN ELECTRICAL FIRE WHEN YOU ARE 100 MILES FROM ANYONE. *TR

STEERING
I BOUGHT A 2004 JEEP WRANGLER ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO AND 3 OF THE MONTHS THAT I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE ITS HAS A SHAKE IN THE FRONT END KNOWN AS THE DEATH WOBBLE (GOOGLE DEATH WOBBLE)MY JEEP HAS 63,000 MILES ON IT AND NO WARRANTY, BOUGHT IT USED. WHEN I DRIVE THIS JEEP 40-55 MILES A HOUR AND IF I HIT A BUMP THE WHOLE FRONT END OF THE JEEP SHAKES OUT OF CONTROL, VERY DANGEROUS. MY JEEP WRANGLER HAS HAD NOTHING DONE TO IT (NO LIFTS OR ADDED PARTS ALL STOCK) I HAVE BROUGHT THIS JEEP TO A MECHANIC 1 MONTH AGO AND THIS FRIDAY IT WILL BE GOING BACK TO ANOTHER MECHANIC. WHEN MY JEEP FIRST DID THIS DEATH WOBBLE I DID SOME RESEARCH AND I WAS VERY SURPRISED HOW MANY PEOPLE HAVE RECEIVED THE SAME PROBLEM AS I DID. IS THERE ANYTHING I CAN DO? THIS JEEP SAT AT THE DEALERS LOT FOR 1 YEAR BEFORE HE SOLD IT, DID HE KNOW? MAYBE NOTHING WILL COME OUT OF THIS BUT I FEEL JEEP NEED TO RECALL THIS PROBLEM AND FIX IT CORRECT BEFORE SOMEONE GET HURT BAD. I HAVE TWO DAUGHTERS AND I WILL NOT LET THEM RIDE IN MY JEEP UNTIL I FIND THE CORRECT WAY TO FIX IT. MY JEEP HAS THIS PROBLEM AT LEAST 1 TIME A DAY. *TR

POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
FIRST I STARTED TO HAVE A LOUD RATTLING SOUND WHEN I AM IDLING, NEUTRAL WITH THE CLUTCH OUT. I WAS TOLD IT WAS NORMAL WEAR NOISE, BUT I COULD REPLACE THE THROW OUT BEARING TO MAKE IT QUIETER. AFTER IT WAS REPLACED I STARTED HEARING A LOUD WHISTLING SOUND WHEN MY JEEP IS COASTING AND ABOVE 2000 RPMS WITH THE CLUTCH OUT. THE DEALERSHIP KEEPS TELLING ME IT'S NORMAL. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK 2 TIMES, BUT THEY CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM. I'M STILL HAVING THE NOISE AND THERE IS NO SIGN OF A FIX FROM THE DEALERSHIP. THEY JUST KEEP SAYING IT'S NORMAL. JUST LIKE EVERYTHING ELSE THEY HAVE HAD TO FIX!!! *TR

ON THURS JUNE 25 AT APX 1800 HRS BOTH HALVES OF THE FREEDOM TOP ON MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER FLEW OFF THE CAR AT 55 MPH. THE FIBERGLASS FAILED AND THE TOPS TORE AWAY FROM THE METAL LATCHES.

DURING THOSE SIX WEEKS I HAD DRIVEN IN EXCESS OF 55 MPH WITH OUT A PROBLEM HAD ANYONE BEEN DRIVING BEHIND ME THE CERTAINLY COULD HAVE BEEN INJURED OR KILLED. I RETRIEVED THE TOPS FROM THE HWY AND HAVE THEM AS EVIDENCE I CONTACTED CHRYSLER AND THEY REFUSE TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM OR TAKE ANY KIND OF CORRECTIVE ACTION THE CAR HAS 40,000 MI ON IT. MY INSURANCE CO SAYS I AM NOT COVERED FOR THE DAMAGE. I HAVE PICTURES OF THE DAMAGED TOPS ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRECIATED. *TR

TIRES, TIRES:TREAD/BELT
WE PURCHASED A SET OF BRIDGESTONE DUELER APT III TIRES FROM SEARS ON JULY 14, 2007 FOR OUR 2001 JEEP WRANGLER. AT THE TIME OF INSTALLATION THE JEEP HAD 69,903 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THIS JEEP HAS THE 2.5L 4-CYLINDER ENGINE AND 5-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION. ON JUNE 23, 2009 MY SON DROVE THE JEEP TO HIS AUTOMOTIVE CLASS AT CAPE FEAR COMMUNITY COLLEGE TO CHANGE THE OIL. WHILE ON THE LIFT, THE TEACHER NOTICED THAT THE RIGHT REAR TIRE WAS MISSING A SECTION OF TREAD. THEY REMOVED THE TIRE AND INSTALLED THE SPARE. THE JEEP HAS 80,104 MILES ON THE ODOMETER. THIS MEANS THAT THE TIRE FAILED WITH ONLY 10,201 MILES AND APPROXIMATELY 2 YEARS OLD. IF MY SON HAD BEEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A DISASTER. THE TIRE SIZE IS 265 70 R16 111S AND THE CODE IS DOT V672 JLP 4506. WE ARE CONCERNED ABOUT THE REMAINING TIRES ON THE VEHICLE AND IF THESE SHOULD BE REPLACED. *TR
