FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
PUMPING GAS TO FILL THE TANK ALWAYS OVERFLOWS. THE SENSOR THAT TELLS THE PUMP TO SHUT OFF DOESN'T WORK CAUSING GAS TO OVERFLOW ALL OVER THE CAR, MYSELF AND THE GROUND. WHAT A WASTE OF PRICEY GAS.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
WHILE DRIVING, IF THE VEHICLE HITS A SMALL BUMP, THE FRONT END SHAKES VIOLENTLY BACK AND FORTH UNTIL I AM ABLE TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THIS PROBLEM IS WIDESPREAD AND CAN BE FOUND ON THE INTERNET AS THE "JEEP DEATH WOBBLE". WE'VE SPENT $900 TO HAVE THIS FIXED AND HAVE BEEN TO 2 DIFFERENT GARAGES TO HAVE IT FIXED AND THE MECHANICS CAN'T FIND ANYTHING MORE THAT IS WRONG AND CLAIM IT'S A DESIGN FLAW IN THE VEHICLE.

TAKATA RECALL; S33/ NHTSA 16V-290. WHILE TRAVELLING FORWARD AT APPROXIMATELY 35 TO 40 MPH IN A STRAIGHT DIRECTION, A VEHICLE TURNED LEFT IN FRONT OF ME AND OUR VEHICLES COLLIDED. UNABLE TO APPLY ANY SORT OF BRAKING, MY JEEP'S FRONT CENTER AND FRONT LEFT SIDE STRUCK THE LEFT FRONT, LEFT FRONT QUARTER-PANEL, AND DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR OF THE OTHER VEHICLE. MY JEEP SPUN APPROXIMATELY 45 DEGREES TO THE LEFT BEFORE COMING TO A STOP WITH THE OTHER VEHICLE. MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY AS A RESULT OF THE CRASH. I SUFFERED INJURIES TO MY LEFT HAND, LEFT THUMB, LEFT WRIST, LEFT FOREARM, LEFT SHOULDER, LEFT SIDE OF MY NECK, LEFT SCAPULA, CHEST, RIGHT HIP, LEFT KNEE, LEFT, SHIN, AND LOWER BACK. AS OF THIS TIME, I AM STILL TREATING MY INJURIES. THE IMPACT FORCE WAS ENOUGH TO BEND MY STEERING WHEEL AS WELL.

POWER TRAIN, UNKNOWN OR OTHER
JEEP VIOLENTLY POPS OUT OF FIRST GEAR WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE L. HAPPENS ALL THE TIME. FROM DOING RESEARCH ONLINE THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH PEOPLE WHO OWN THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION JEEP JK MODEL. THIS CAN BE EXCEPTIONALLY DANGEROUS WHEN GOING THROUGH INTERSECTIONS OR CHANGING LANES AS THE JEEP WILL POP OUT IF GEAR AND NO LONGER ACCELERATE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE DAY ONE OF ME PURCHASING IT.

STEERING, SUSPENSION
VEHICLE IS EXHIBITING AN UNSAFE SPEED WOBBLE WHILE DRIVING ABOVE 40 MPH, VEHICLE ONLY HAS 50K MILES, I ALREADY HAD ALL OF THE SUSPENSION COMPONENTS REPLACED AND THE CONDITION REMAINS, CHRYSLER/JEEP AS A MANUFACTURER SHOULD COME UP WITH A REPAIR WHETHER IT IS COVERED BY MANUFACTURER OR BY CUSTOMER PAID, THERE SHOULD BE A PROPER REPAIR FOR THE PROBLEM, THIS CONDITION COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE AN ACCIDENT AND INJURY

I HAD PREVIOUSLY HAD MY CLOCKSPRING REPLACED TWICE PER CHRYSLER AND FOUGHT TO GET REIMBURSED. NOW, MY CRUISE CONTROL IS NOT FUNCTIONING WHICH PERTAINS TO THE CLOCKSPRING. I'M CONCERNED THAT THE CLOCKSPRING IS COMPROMISED AND WILL EVENTUALLY FAIL AS THE PREVIOUS TWO HAVE. A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT DETERMINES WHETHER OR NOT THE AIRBAG WILL DISCHARGE. IT IS A CONTINUING CONCERN.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, VISIBILITY/WIPER
MULTIPLE TIMES YESTERDAY, STARTING WITH (WHICH I THOUGHT NOTHING OF INITIALLY) THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT TURNING ON WHILE THE JEEP WAS IN PARK NOT MOVING. SHORTLY THERE AFTER WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT ON A HIGHWAY ABOUT 45-55 MPH A KNOCK OR CLUNK WAS FELT BENEATH THE FLOOR, IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWED BY THE EAS, TRACTION CONTROL, ABS AND BRAKE LIGHTS ILLUMINATED, THE AIRBAG LIGHT FLASHED, THE WIPERS RUNNING EVEN THOUGH THEY WERE OFF, A HARD PULL TO THE RIGHT AND HIGH RUNNING/INCREASING RPM'S ON A LEVEL ROAD WITH MY FOOT OFF THE ACCELERATOR. I HIT THE HAZARDS, PULLED OFF THE ROAD, LOOKED AT, IN AND UNDER THE JEEP, NOTHING LOOKED AMISS. MY HUSBAND TOOK OVER THE DRIVE, MADE IT ROUGHLY 8-10 MILES WITH OUT ISSUE AND THAN AGAIN EVERYTHING ABOVE BUT IN ADDITION THIS TIME THE HORN BLARED FOR PROBABLY 2 MINUTES, IF NOT MORE, HE PULLED OVER SHUT IT OFF TURNED IT ON WE WENT HOME, WAITED ABOUT 2 HOURS, DROVE ABOUT 15 BLOCKS CITY ROADS WITH HILLS AND TURNS LESS THAN 25MPH ROUND TRIP AND NOTHING HAPPENED. MIGHT BE WORTH MENTIONING, FOR THE LAST MONTH OR SO IN HIGH HEAT 80 DEGREES AND UP, IT HASN'T BEEN STARTING THE FIRST FEW TURNS, BUT THE BATTERY IS LESS THAN 6 MONTHS OLD.

AIR BAGS, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AT RANDOM, MY HORN NO LONGER WORKS. THE DEALER SAID THAT IT IS DUE TO A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY. I GOT THE RECALL INFORMATION STATING THAT THE CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY MAY BECOME CONTAMINATED, BUT MY VIN IS NOT ONE THAT IS OFFICIALLY RECALLED. I WOULD REALLY LIKE THIS FIXED AS IT IS A SHOW VEHICLE. THANK YOU! (NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 16V290). ALSO, MY GAS ALWAYS SPLASHES OUT ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WHEN IT'S ANY WHERE NEAR FULL. IT DOESN'T TRIGGER THE GAS PUMP TO STOP AND SPLASHES BACK AT ME EVERY TIME I FILL UP FOR GAS. PLEASE HELP! *TR

JUST AS ALL THE OTHER 2007 JEEP WRANGLERS MY CLOCKSPRING HAS GONE BAD AND MY AIRBAGS AND HORN MALFUNCTION CONSTANTLY. I FILED A REPORTS YEARS AGO BUT THAT SEEMS TO HAVE BEEN REMOVED. I SEE THAT THE 2008 JEEP WRANGLERS HAD THIS RECALLED, BUT 2007 JEEPS WERE NOT GOOD ENOUGH. GUESS OUR LIVES AND THE LIVES OF OUR FAMILIES DON'T MEAN SQUAT.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
TWO WEEKS AGO I WHEN TO THE DEALER TO DETAIL CLEAN MY JEEP, I PARK AT THE ENTRANCE OF THE SHOP, WHEN THEY WHERE GOING TO TAKE MY JEEP IN FOR CLEANING, IT WILL NOT START, THEY HAD TO PUSH THE JEEP INTO THE SHOP, AFTER CHECKING IT FOR A WILD, THEY TOLD ME THAT IT BURN A FUSE, THEY REPLACE IT AND EVERYTHING WAS FIND. LAST WEEK WHEN I CAME OUT OF MY JOB, THE JEEP WILL NOT START AGAIN, I JUST REPLACE THE FUSE AND IT WAS ALL FINE. THIS MORNING AM AT WAWA GETTING COFFEE AND WHEN I CAME OUT , THE JEEP WILL NOT START, HAD TO GET A TOLL TRUCK TO TAKE IT TO MY MECHANIC. HE CHECK IT AND TOLD ME THERE SOMETHING CUTTING OFF THE POWER AND BLOWING THE FUSE EVERY TIME HE TRY TO START IT. HE TOLD TO CHECK WITH THE DEALER TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL OR PROBLEM WITH THIS, I CALL AND BY MY VIN NUMBER THEY SAID THERE WAS NO RECALL, A RECALL ON THE SWITCH AND FOR CUTTING OFF THE POWER WAS ISSUED FOR NEWER MODELS BUT NOT FOR 2007. I WILL LIKE TO KNOW IF THERE BEEN OTHER SIMILAR COMPLAIN ABOUT THIS, NOW I REMEMBER THAT SOMETIMES MY JEEP WILL BE LOOSING LIKE POWER OR STALLING WHEN I WAS DRIVING, I KEEP MY JEEP CLEAN AND IN VERY GOOD CONDITIONS , UP TO DATE IN MAINTENANCE, BUT THIS WORRYING ME. I HAVE A FRIEND WITH A 2008 JEEP, AND HE TOLD ME HE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM WITH HIS.
