VEHICLE IS CONSUMING EXCESSIVE OIL. I CHECK THE DIP STICK EVERY TIME I GET GAS TO BE SURE IT DOESN'T GO DRY. IT STARTED BEING VERY LOW AT JUST 3,000 SINCE LAST OIL CHANGE AND PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE. THE DIPSTICK WILL NOW BE BELOW THE SAFE LINE AT 1,600 MILES SINCE LAST OIL CHANGE. I HAVE HAD THE PCV VALUE REPLACED AND IT DIDN'T NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. I HAVE BEEN TO SEVERAL SPECIALTY JEEP MACHINES WHO HAVE SAID I WILL NEED A NEW ENGINE. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
FUEL OVERSPILLS THE FUEL INTAKE WHEN FILLING AT A STANDARD GAS PUMP WITH AUTO SHUT-OFF. THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY STOPS FILLING, THEN A SECOND LATER A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF GAS SPLASHES BACK OUT OF THE INTAKE. FROM READING OTHER COMPLAINS HERE AND ONLINE, THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON JEEPS OF THIS YEAR AND AROUND IT. *TR

WHEN I FILL UP TANK OF GAS IT OVERFLOWS, DOES NOT SHUT OFF PUMP. GAS OVERFLOWS ONTO FENDER, BUMPER, TIRE AND GROUND. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. NOT TO MENTION A WASTE OF GAS AND SMELLY HANDS ALL DAY AFTER CLEANING GAS OFF OF FENDER AND BUMPER. HAVE PREVIOUSLY FILED A COMPLAINT BUT TO DATE NO TSB OR RECALL TO ADDRESS THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

SERVICE BRAKES
WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE AT APPROX 45MPH IN THE RH LANE APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION WITH AN ILLUMINATED GREEN RIGHT-TURN ARROW(MY LANE), A VEHICLE IN THE SAME LANE, TRAVELING SAME DIRECTION, SUDDENLY STOPPED AT THE GREEN LIGHT AT THE INTERSECTION. I IMMEDIATELY APPLIED HARD PRESSURE TO BRAKE PEDAL, ONLY TO HAVE IT SLAM STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR-BOARD WITH VERY LITTLE BRAKING ACTION. I WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY DOWN-SHIFT AND APPLY PARKING BRAKE IN TIME TO AVOID COLLISION WITH STOPPED VEHICLE. I CAREFULLY DROVE VEHICLE TO MY HOME, APPROX 3 MILES FROM INCIDENT INTERSECTION. UPON INSPECTION I NOTED BRAKE MASTER-CYLINDER EMPTY (IT WAS TOPPED-OFF TO "MAX" LINE WHEN CHECKED EVENING PRIOR), AND HYDRAULIC FLUID SPRAYED ALL-AROUND RIGHT (PASSENGER)-SIDE FRONT INNER WHEEL AND PUDDLED/DRIPPING AT BANJO-BOLT. YOU-TUBE RESEARCH FOUND A SIMILAR SITUATION WITH A JEEP 2 MODEL YEARS OLDER THAN MINE. LINK TO VIDEO: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=NVDZJ874XUM&LIST=PLDW3MIE2V4TCRDUUA9D8RBCLQV8QA1MFB&INDEX=2&T=1230S WHEN I REMOVED THE RIGHT BRAKE HOSE ASSEMBLY, THE METAL CRIMP-ON FITTING TO THE FLEX-HOSE WAS COMPLETELY DISINTEGRATED BY CORROSION. I REPLACED THE LEFT BRAKE HOSE ASSEMBLY AS WELL, AND FOUND NEARLY AS-SEVERE CORROSION ON THE METAL CRIMP-ON FITTINGS THOUGH NO LEAKAGE HAD OCCURRED FROM THERE DURING THIS INCIDENT. SEE ATTACHMENTS FOR DIGITAL PICS TAKEN THROUGHOUT THE REPAIR PROCESS, AND EXCERPTS FROM THE MAINTENANCE LOGBOOK I MAINTAIN ON THIS VEHICLE. I HAVE ANOTHER, NEWER (2014) JEEP WRANGLER THAT HAS THE SAME FLEXIBLE BRAKE-HOSE INSTALLATION AT BUILD. I INTEND TO REMOVE/REPLACE THOSE HOSES AT NEXT SCHEDULED INSPECTION, IN APPROX 6-8 WEEKS. I WILL REPORT FINDINGS AND LINK TO THIS REPORT. PLEASE CONTACT ME AT THE EMAIL/PHONE PROVIDED, OR AT MY WORK EMAIL: [XXX] I BELIEVE LIKELIHOOD OF LIKE-FAILURES IS HIGH, SEVERITY COULD BE CATASTROPHIC. THANK YOU! INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
MY DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO HONOR A RECALL FOR THE FUEL SPILLBACK PROBLEM AND WANTS ME TO PAY IN EXCESS OF $300 FOR THE PART AND REPAIR. THIS IS THE PROBLEM WITH FUELING AND THE PUMP SHUTOFF DOES NOT ENGAGE, THUS OVERFLOWING AND SPILLING GASOLINE OUT OF THE FUEL DOOR. THIS OF COURSE HAPPENS WHEN THE CAR IS STATIONARY. I WASN'T ALLOWED TO ORDER THE MOPAR PART NUMBER CNNNX321AC TO REPAIR THE PROBLEM MYSELF BECAUSE THE VENDOR SAID IT CAN ONLY BE PURCHASED BY THE DEALER BECAUSE IT IS A "RECALLED" PART. I NEED TO KNOW HOW I CAN FILE A CLAIM TO BE REIMBURSED IF I HAVE TO PAY THE DEALERSHIP OR HOW I CAN ORDER THE PART THROUGH A VENDOR WHO WOULD ALLOW ME TO PURCHASE THE PART. PLEASE RESPOND WITH A SOLUTION. THANK YOU.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
GAS TANK TAKES FOREVER TO FILL, CLICKS EVERY .25 GAL OR LESS AND HAVE TO START REFUELING ALL OVER AGAIN TILL FULL, ALSO ALMOST ALWAYS WILL OVERFILL. SPOKE TO MANY JEEP OWNERS AND THIS IS COMMON ISSUE WITH JEEPS. LOOK AT MESSAGE BOARDS JEEP SEEMS AWARE OF ISSUES BUT THEY DON'T FIX ISSUE. ALWAYS FUEL FLAT SURFACE AT GAS STATIONS AND THIS HAPPENS AT EVERY GAS STATION PUMP I'VE TRIED.
