FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE FILLING UP MY GAS TANK, IT GOT TO FULL THEN SEEMED TO REGURGITATE GAS. SPILLING DOWN THE SIDE OF MY JEEP, ONTO ME, AND ON THE GROUND NEAR THE PUMP. THIS CONCERNS ME BECAUSE OF THE RISK OF FIRE AND EXPLOSION. THE GAS IS HARMFUL TO SKIN AND IT SPILLED ALL OVER ME. I JUST PURCHASED THIS JEEP. THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN. *TR

DURING THE MONTH OF 2/2014, THE AIR BAG WARNING CHIME AND LIGHT BEGAN TO GO OFF INTERMITTENTLY. DUE TO THE SAFETY CONCERNS, WE TOOK OUR VEHICLE IN AND LEARNED THAT IT WAS A BAD CLOCK SPRING. WE PAID TO HAVE IT FIXED, BUT UPON RESEARCH LEARNED THAT THE SAME EXACT PART HAD BEEN RECALLED IN RHD VEHICLES (FOR OUR VEHICLE YEAR) ONLY. WOULD LIKE INFORMATION AS TO WHY LHD VEHICLES ARE NOT PART OF THE RECALL WHEN SO MANY PEOPLE ARE OBVIOUSLY EXPERIENCING A SAFETY ISSUE ALSO. *TR

WHEN REFUELING, THE NOZZLE ON THE FUEL PUMP WILL NOT STOP ON TIME, ALLOWING FUEL TO SPLASH BACK AT THE PERSON REFUELING. TODAY, THE NOZZLE DIDN'T STOP AT ALL, ALLOWING A LOT OF FUEL TO SPILL ON THE GROUND. A PERSON DOESN'T HAVE TO FILL IT UP EITHER. IF YOU STOP MID REFILL, IT WILL STILL SPRAY BACK AT THE PERSON REFUELING. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I HAVE HAD MY 2010 JEEP WRANGLER FOR NEARLY TWO YEARS, AND RECENTLY THE GAS TANK HAS BEGUN TO BACK UP EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE VEHICLE. I DO NOT TRY TO "TOP-OFF" THE TANK, BUT THE OVERFLOW SENDS FUEL OUT OF THE VEHICLE CREATING EXPOSED GASOLINE RUNNING DOWN THE REAR QUARTER-PANEL & BUMPER. IN SOME CASES, A PUDDLE OF FUEL FORMS CAUSING A SIGNIFICANT RISK TO MY FAMILY, MYSELF AND OTHERS FUELING AT THE STATION. THIS HAS HAPPENED CONSISTENTLY OVER THE PAST TWO MONTHS. I'VE TRIED TO REMEDY THE SITUATION BY TRYING DIFFERENT FUELING STATIONS, PUMPS, AND ALTERNATING BETWEEN MANUAL FILLING & USING THE AUTO FILL LEVER ON THE FUELING NOZZLE TO NO AVAIL. BASED ON MY RESEARCH THIS IS A PERVASIVE ISSUE ON THE 2010 JEEP WRANGLER THAT SHOULD BE ADDRESSED AND REMEDIED PROACTIVELY RATHER THAN WAITING FOR A SERIOUS INCIDENT TO OCCUR. CONTRARY TO CHRYSLER'S RESPONSE OF 'USER ERROR', I HAVE BEEN FUELING DIFFERENT MAKES & MODELS OF VEHICLES FOR OVER 20 YEARS WITHOUT HAVING THIS OCCUR. I URGE THE NHTSA TO FURTHER INVESTIGATE THIS ISSUE. I ENJOY DRIVING MY JEEP, BUT I AM NOW RELUCTANT EVERY TIME I HAVE TO FUEL THE VEHICLE. *TR

AIRBAG LIGHT IS INTERMITTENTLY LIT. MULTIPLE SOURCES AND TROUBLESHOOTING HAVE LED TO THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY. CHRYSLER HAS A RECALL FOR THIS (13V176000), BUT IT ONLY APPLIES TO RIGHT HAND DRIVE VEHICLES. THERE ARE NUMEROUS LEFT HAND DRIVE VEHICLES THAT HAVE HAD THIS FAILURE. IN SEARCHING FOR THIS PART ONLINE, I FOUND THAT THERE IS NO PART NUMBER DIFFERENCE BETWEEN RIGHT OR LEFT HAND DRIVE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE PER NHTSA STANDARDS. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I PURCHASED MY 2010 WRANGLER NEW. THE LAST THREE TIMES I HAVE FILLED MY FUEL TANK, GAS HAS SPEWED OUT OF THE TANK IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE NOZZLE CLICKED OFF. IT SEEMS TO BE COMING FROM A BUILD-UP OF PRESSURE INSIDE OF THE GAS TANK BECAUSE THE GAS COMES BACK OUT OF THE TANK FORCEFULLY EVEN IF THE NOZZLE IS STILL IN THE TANK. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME I HAD TO GO HOME TO CHANGE CLOTHES AND TO WASH THE GASOLINE OFF OF MY LEGS. I THOUGHT IT WAS SOMETHING I HAD DONE WRONG. I HAVE SINCE FILLED UP TWO MORE TIMES AND I HAVE USED DIFFERENT PUMPS AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS WITH THE SAME RESULT. THIS HAPPENED AGAIN TODAY (01/21/14), AND THE STATION ATTENDANT RUSHED OUT TO CLEAN UP THE FUEL THAT WAS SPILLED BECAUSE THERE WAS SO MUCH ON THE GROUND AND AGAIN, I HAD GAS SPEWED ON ME. I FEEL THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IN SOME WAY BY CHRYSLER. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL MY '10 JEEP WRANGLER WITH GAS, THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF AND THEN THE GAS BACKS UP OUT OF MY GAS TANK AND POURS OUT OF MY CAR ALL OVER THE GROUND. I HAVE TRIED NOT LOCKING THE GAS PUMP ON, GOING TO DIFFERENT STATIONS, AND FILLING IT SLOWLY. NOTHING WORKS. IT DOES THE SAME THING TIME AFTER TIME. *TR

NUMEROUS TIME OVER THE PAST 3 YEARS I'VE HAD GAS OVERFLOW / SPILL / SPEW OUT FROM WHILE FILLING MY TANK WITH GAS. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS AND BOTH USING MANUALLY USING THE GAS TRIGGER OR LOCKING THE GAS TRIGGER. I TOOK THE JEEP TO THE DEALER LAST YEAR AND THEY SAID IT WOULD COST $1200 TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK. FROM THE RESEARCH I HAVE DONE THERE IS ALREADY AN INVESTIGATION INTO THIS MATTER FOR MY SPECIFIC MAKE AND MODEL. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
HELLO, MY NAME IS [XXX] AND ON JANUARY 4TH, 2014 I PURCHASED A 2010 JEEP JK WRANGLER FROM A FAMILY FRIEND, UPON THE FIRST 3 TIMES FILLING UP (ALL SO FAR) THE GAS HAS SPEWED OUT OF THE TANK AND ONTO THE GROUND BEFORE I COULD SHUT OFF THE PUMP HANDLE. I'VE PROBABLY WASTED AT LEAST 2 GALLONS ALREADY BY DOING THIS, WHICH ADDS UP QUICK. THIS SEEMS VERY DANGEROUS TO ME, ONE LITTLE SPARK COULD SEND THE VEHICLE UP IN FLAMES AND HARM ME, AND MANY OTHERS. I WAS WONDERING IF THERE WAS ANY TYPE OF WARRANTY TO COVER THIS SO THAT MYSELF, AND OTHERS, DON'T HAVE TO PAY HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS TO GET THE PROBLEM FIXED, OR WORRY EVERY TIME WE GO TO THE PUMP. THANKS FOR TAKING TIME TO READ THIS, [XXX]. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

AIR BAGS
ON MY 2010 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DASHBOARD, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT FLASHES CONSTANTLY WITH A CHIME, AN INDICATION THAT THERE IS SOMETHING MALFUNCTIONING OR INTERFERING WITH THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS. I TOOK MY JEEP WRANGLER TO THE DEALER WHICH DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING. THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE AND CONCERN FOR MANY JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) OWNERS, INCLUDING MYSELF, AND HAS BEEN SHOWN TIME AND TIME AGAIN TO BE CAUSED BY A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING WITHIN THE VEHICLE'S STEERING WHEEL. THIS FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS THE CULPRIT FOR POTENTIAL AIRBAG FAILURE IN THE JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DURING AN ACCIDENT OR PREMATURE DEPLOYMENT WHEN SIMPLY DRIVING AROUND. DAIMLER CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY CONCERN OF THEIR FAULTY CLOCKSPRING THAT CAN CAUSE FAILURE OF THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS FROM PROPERLY DEPLOYING. *TR
