FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
08 JEEP WRANGLER 4 DOOR. EVERY TIME I FILL MY GAS TANK THE TANK DOES NOT SHUT OFF IN TIME AND GAS POURS EVERYWHERE. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT GAS STATION I AM AT AND IT JUST STARTED UP RECENTLY NOW IT DOES IT EVERY TIME. I HAVE NOT TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER YET BUT HAVE READ UP ON THE PROBLEM AND IT SEEMS AS THOUGH A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUES. I PLAN TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER IN THE NEXT COUPLE DAYS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE:STORAGE:TANK ASSEMBLY
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK, THE PUMP FAILED TO SHUT OFF WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS FULL. THE GAS WOULD OVERFLOW OUT OF THE TANK AT TIMES WHEN IT WAS FULL INSTEAD OF SHUTTING OFF THE PUMP. THE DEALER IS FAMILIAR WITH THE FAILURE AND AN APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED AND THEN CANCELLED. THE VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN REPAIRED TO-DATE. HE RETRIEVED A SERVICE BULLETIN FROM THE DEALER WHICH OUTLINED THE PROBLEM. HE CALLED THE MANUFACTURER AND FILED A COMPLAINT. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 55,000. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 50,000.

STEERING:LINKAGES:TIE ROD ASSEMBLY
TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH THE VEHICLE STARTED TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE CONTACT PULLED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD TO SEE IF HE HAD A FLAT TIRE.

THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALER BEING REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE "DEATH WOBBLE" COULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASHED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 37,000.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
FUEL TANK WILL OVERFLOW SPILLING ANYWHERE FROM 1-2 QUARTS OF FUEL FROM VEHICLE WHEN AUTOMATIC FUEL PUMPS ARE USED. IT APPEARS AS THOUGH THE TANK DOES NOT VENT PROPERLY, WHEN THE AUTOMATIC FUEL PUMPS SHUT OFF (REGARDLESS OF STATION) THE TANK APPEARS TO "BURP" VENTING MORE GASES AND 1-2 QUARTS OF FUEL. THIS IS A CONSISTENT PROBLEM HAPPENING REGULARLY (EVERY SECOND OR THIRD FILL UP). *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN I FILL MY GAS TANK IT OVERFLOWS AND SPILLS OUT OF THE GAS TANK REGULARLY. SO I WAIT UNTIL THE LOW FUEL LIGHT COMES UP BEFORE REFILLING. I KNOW MY TANK HOLDS APPROX. 19 GALLONS SO WHEN I'M FILLING UP, I HAVE TO STOP THE PUMP AT 16 GALLONS AND THEN SLOWLY SQUEEZE THE HANDLE UP TO ABOUT 18 GALLONS. EVEN THEN SOMETIMES THIS STILL CAUSES THE FUEL TO OVERFLOW AND SPILL ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND ONTO THE GROUND. THE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFFS ON THE NOZZLES NEVER KICK IN. I'VE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS. I KNOW THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED INCIDENT AS TWO OF MY PERSONAL FRIENDS HAVE SIMILAR VEHICLES TO MINE AND WE HAVE THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. IN FACT, ON JEEP WRANGLER 2007-2010 MESSAGE FORUMS, THE ISSUE APPEARS TO HAPPENING VERY OFTEN TO OTHER DRIVERS AS WELL. *TR

2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WITH 20K MILES. FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY SINGLE FILL UP AT FIRST CLICK OF THE PUMP SHUT OFF. I CAN NOT FILL UP TANK WITHOUT IT HAPPENING. HAVE TAKEN IT IN TO JEEP DEALER AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO BECAUSE THERE IS NO TSB FOR IT. I AM TIRED OF MY MONEY GUSHING OUT OF THE TANK AND I AM AFRAID OF THE POSSIBILITY OF THE OVERFLOW GAS BEING COMBUSTIBLE WHILE I STAND THERE. I HAVE SPOKEN WITH A FEW OTHER JEEP MEMBERS AND THEY HAVE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I OWN A 2005 JEEP WRANGLER LWB, RECENTLY, EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH FUEL,GAS SHOOTS OUT OF THE FUEL FILLER. THIS DEFECT IS WELL DOCUMENTED ON THE JEEP WEBSITE FORUMS. IT SEEMS CHRYSLER IS REPLACING SOME FUEL TANKS, AS THEY ARE ATTRIBUTED TO THE ROLLOVER VALVE, BUILT INTO THE TANK. BUT, AS I SEE IT, THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW, AS THE TANKS THEY ARE REPLACING, WILL IN TIME, DO THE SAME THING. YOUR TIMELY INVESTIGATION OF THIS MATTER, IS OF UTMOST IMPORTANCE. THE VIOLENCE OF SOME OF THE SPILLS I HAVE WITNESSED, DESERVE IMMEDIATE ACTION. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I AM THE OWNER OF A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SAHARA WITH 56,000 MILES. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN DECEMBER OF 2009 USED. THE FIRST WEEK OF OWNING THE VEHICLE, I WENT TO THE GAS STATION TO FILL THE TANK. I PLACED THE NOZZLE IN THE FILLER TUBE AND SET THE PUMP TO AUTO FILL. ONCE THE TANK WAS FILLED COMPLETELY, THE PUMP CLICKED OFF AND THE FUEL TANK THEN "BURPED" ABOUT 1 PINT OF FUEL OUT. AT TIMES, THE FUEL COMES OUT VIGOROUSLY IN A SPRAY MAKING IT EVEN MORE FLAMMABLE AND COVERING ME AND THE VEHICLE. I HAVE GONE TO MANY DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS SINCE AND HAVE THE PROBLEM EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. THE PROBLEM ALSO OCCURS WHEN I HOLD THE PUMP AND TRY TO LIMIT THE FUEL FLOW. HERE IS A VIDEO OF THE ISSUE (NOT MY JEEP) HTTP://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=ZOUVOKEOLO8 THERE ARE HUNDREDS, IF NOT THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THE ONLY DEALER RECOMMEND FIX IS TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK WHICH IS A COSTLY REPAIR FOR WHAT I FELL IS A SAFETY CONCERN. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK, AUTO SHUT OFF NO LONGER PREVENTS FUEL SPILLING WHEN TANK IS FULL. NOZZLE SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALLY, BUT APPROXIMATELY 1/2 QUART OF FUEL IS SPILLED ONTO THE BODY, FENDER FLARE, BUMPER, AND GROUND. OCCURS AT EVERY FUEL FILL-UP SINCE REACHING 46,000 MILES (48,000 NOW, SO APPROXIMATELY 10 OCCURRENCES). *TR

AIR BAGS:FRONTAL, STEERING, ELECTRICAL SYSTEM:HORN
2008 JEEP WRANGLER RHD POSTAL VEHICLES USED BY RURAL CARRIERS FOR USPS. THOSE OF US WHO PURCHASED THE VEHICLES ARE HAVING ISSUES WITH AIRBAG MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT AND NO HORN USE OR INTERMITTENT USAGE. ONE ITEM OF INTEREST POSSIBLE CAUSE IS THE SPRINGCLOCK IN THE STEERING COLUMN AS COMPONENT THAT OPERATES BOTH HORN AND AIR BAG CIRCUITS. THIS ITEM HAS BEEN A PROBLEM IN YEARS PAST WITH JEEP. CONCERNED WITH A DEPLOYMENT OF FAULTY AIR BAG ISSUE MOSTLY, TRYING TO GET MY VEHICLE IN FOR A COMPLETE INVESTIGATION. TECHNICIANS ARE BY APPOINTMENT ONLY WHEN THEY ARE IN. FORUMS AT RURALINFO.NET CONFIRM OTHERS ARE HAVING THESE SAME ISSUES. MY VEHICLE HAS 50K MILES WHEN PROBLEM OCCURRED. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
HELLO, OUR 2005 JEEP WRANGLER HAS AN ISSUE WITH GAS SPILLING OUT OF THE GAS TANK WHENEVER IT IS FILLED UP AT THE GAS STATION. A SIGNIFICANT VOLUME OF GASOLINE SPRAYS OUTWARD ONTO THE DRIVER, AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, WHICH I BELIEVE MAY BE A SAFETY CONCERN. IT SEEMS THIS IS A DESIGN FLAW AND IS QUITE COMMON, AS I HAVE EVEN SEEN VIDEO DOCUMENTATION ON WEB SITES SUCH AS "YOUTUBE." *TR

I PURCHASE A NEW 2007 JEEP WRANGLER, AT 50,000 MILES THE ENGINE STARTED MAKING A KNOCKING SOUND. I THEN CHECKED THE OIL AND DISCOVERED THAT THERE WAS NO OIL. AT THIS POINT I PUT OIL IN BUT AFTER 5 DAYS THE ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING. I SINCE CONTACT JEEP BUT HAVEN'T HEARD NOTHING BACK. I HAVE NEVER HAD ANY PROBLEM IN THE PAST WITH THE OIL RUNNING LOW. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. WHENEVER THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS TO INCLUDE APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE THROTTLE BODY LIGHT HAD APPEARED ON THE DASHBOARD. HE ALSO NOTICED THAT THE VEHICLE OCCASIONAL WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AFTER COMING TO A STOP. THE DEALER REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY; HOWEVER, THE CONTACT IS STILL EXPERIENCING THE FAILURE. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE 31820.
