FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I BOUGHT A USED 2007 JEEP WRANGLER IN JUNE OF 2010. A COUPLE MONTHS AFTER OWNING THE VEHICLE, I NOTICED THAT IF I LEFT THE GASOLINE PUMP ON AUTOMATIC, THE PUMP WOULD CUT OFF AND GASOLINE WOULD GUSH OUT FROM THE TANK, SPILLING ON THE VEHICLE AND GROUND BELOW. THIS HAPPENED AT VARIOUS STATIONS AND EVERY TIME I WENT TO FILL MY TANK TO FULL. TO PREVENT IT FROM HAPPENING, I ONLY FILL MY TANK TO 3/4 FULL. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
2007 JEEP WRANGLER JK SAHARA UNLIMITED, ISSUE STARTED AROUND 40,000 MILES. CURRENT MILEAGE IS 63,000 MILES. FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLED AT THE PUMP. NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION I USE, NO MATTER WHAT PUMP I USE, THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS ON FILL UP. THE HANDLE FOR THE PUMP HAS CLICKED OFF AND STOPPED FUELING, BUT GAS SPEWS OUT FROM THE GAS FILL ON MY JEEP AND GROUND AND A COUPLE TIMES EVEN ONTO MY CLOTHING. I HAVE HAD TO GO BACK HOME AND CHANGE CLOTHES BECAUSE SO MUCH GAS SPEWED ONTO MY CLOTHING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE FILED FOR THIS ISSUE. CHRYSLER ISSUED A TSB 14-001-11 ON FEBRUARY 11, 2011 FOR THIS BUT IS ONLY BUILD DATES OF MARCH 07- 08. MY BUILD DATE IS IN 2006. GRANTED, I HAVE NOT INCURRED ANY DAMAGE, THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO MYSELF AND SOME GAS STATIONS HAVE EVEN HAD TO SHUT DOWN TO CLEAN UP THE SPILL. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR NUMEROUS JEEPS AND NEEDS TO INCLUDE MANY DIFFERENT BUILD DATES OUTSIDE OF THE RECENTLY ISSUED TSB. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

STEERING, SUSPENSION
DEATH SHAKE IN FRONT END . STEERING STABILIZER FAILURE. TO REPLACE HAD TO BUY FROM CHRYSLER A MODIFICATION BRACKET AND SHOCK. COULD NOT BUY AFTERMARKET. MY POINT IS I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO PAY FOR A BRACKET THAT THEY DID NOT MAKE RIGHT IN THE 1ST PLACE. I ALMOST WAS IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT WHILE DRIVING NORMAL CONDITIONS. THEY COMPARED IT TO A DELL COMPUTER THAT IF I NEEDED A UPGRADE I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. DON'T YOU THINK THAT DRIVING A VEHICLE ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY IS A LITTLE DIFFERENT THAN A COMPUTER SITTING ON A DESK? I DO NOT OFF ROAD AS THIS IS A 2 WHEEL DRIVE JEEP. I LIKE WHAT I DRIVE BUT I THINK THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN A RECALL BEFORE NOW. *TR

STEERING
MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON, WITH 77K MILES HAS BEEN BACK TO THE SHOP GOING ON IT'S 4TH TIME, I HAVE QUESTIONED 3 CINCY DEALERS, THE FACTORY & THEY ALL IGNORE THE "DEATH WOBBLE", I FINALLY GOT THE PARTS MANAGER AT WYLER DEALERSHIP IN CINTI, OHIO TODAY, TO SAY "YES, WE DID GET A TECHNICAL ALERT ABOUT THE TRACK BAR", SO WE WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO GET THE DEALER PARTS, THIS IS AFTER, I HAVE TRIED 2 OTHER HEAVIER DUTY UNITS, THIS DEALER PART IS NOT WORKING, I AM NOW TRYING THE $380 KIT FROM A SHOP IN ARIZONA THAT CLAIMS TO HAVE THE FIX, WISH ME LUCK, BEFORE I HAVE A WRECK. THIS IS ABSURD TO READ & SEE SO MUCH ONLINE ABOUT THIS PROBLEM AND CHRYSLER IS IGNORING IT, MY NEXT STEP IS MY LOCAL TV STATION & TALK RADIO. HOW MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE TO BE MADE, NOT TO MENTION HARD EARNED DOLLARS SPENT & SOMEONE BEING IN AN ACCIDENT BEFORE THEY PAY ATTENTION...NOW HAVING THIS DEALERSHIP TELL ME A "TECHNICAL ALERT" IS DIFFERENT THAN A RECALL? MAKES ME EVEN MADDER...THEY ARE JUST ON A "FIX AS NEEDED BASIS?", SO ANYONE OUT OF WARRANTY HAS TO PAY FOR THE WHOLE FIX? WOW WHERE HAS ACCOUNTABILITY GONE? *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
GAS TANK OVERFILL. WHEN FUELING, AFTER THE GAS STATION PUMP CLICKS OFF, LARGE VOLUMES OF GASOLINE ARE EJECTED FROM THE GAS TANK ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, ONTO THE PUMP HANDLE ITSELF, AND ONTO THE PERSON DOING THE FUELING (ME). AGAIN, THIS HAPPENS *AFTER* THE GAS PUMP CLICKS ITSELF OFF.

EXTERIOR LIGHTING
WHEN THE DIRECTIONAL LEVER IS PUT ON FOR A RIGHT TURN IT DOES NOT ALWAYS GO OFF AFTER THE TURN. INSTEAD IT GOES TO A LEFT SIGNAL. TO TURN IT OFF I HAVE TO GO BACK AND FORTH WITH THE LEVER SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL THE SIGNALS GO OFF. DEALER WON'T FIX IT BECAUSE IT IS HARD TO DUPLICATE AT THE DEALERSHIP. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER JK UNLIMITED IT SUDDENLY OVERFLOWS POURING GAS ALL OVER ME, THE GROUND, AND THE JEEP. THIS OCCURS EVERYTIME I FILL UP THE JEEP. EVEN IF I SLOW THE PUMP DOWN WHEN GETTING CLOSE TO FULL IT STILL SPITS FUEL OUT. I'VE TRIED SEVERAL DIFFERENT GAS STATION WITH THE SAME DANGEROUS RESULTS. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 4DR WRANGLER AND HAVE 29000 MILES ON IT AND EVERY SINGLE TIME THAT I HAVE FILLED THE TANK UP IT OVER FLOWS ONTO THE GROUND. I HAVE HAD TO PUT ABSORBANT DOWN PER THE GAS STATION FOR THE MESS THAT WAS CAUSED. IT SPLASHES BACK HARD ENOUGH THAT IT GETS EVERYWHERE. AND FOR THOSE OF JEEP THAT READ THESE, NO I DO NOT LEAVE THE PUMP OR HANDLE UNATTENDED. IT NOT BEING UNDER WARRANTY ANYMORE, IT IS NO USE AFTER READING ALL THIS THAT I CONTACT JEEP TO HAVE IT FIXED AS THEY SAY NOTHING IS WRONG. BUT THE FEELING OF GAS IN YOUR EYE IS A REALLY UNCOMFORTABLE FEELING CAUSED BY A DEFECT IN JEEP. *TR

I OWN A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON. THE VEHICLE HAS 16,000 MILES. BEGINNING AT ABOUT 12,000 MILES, WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK, THE TANK CONSISTENTLY OVERFLOWS, REGARDLESS OF LEVEL OF FILL, GAS STATION OR WEATHER CONDITIONS. APPROXIMATELY 8 TO 32 OZ OF GAS FLOWS OR SPURTS FROM THE FILLER NECK. THIS CONDITION REPRESENTS A PERSONAL INJURY RISK, FIRE HAZARD AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE. AS THE VEHICLE IS BEYOND WARRANTY, JEEP REFUSES TO ADDRESS THIS SERIOUS ISSUE. BASED ON JEEP BLOGS, THIS ISSUE APPEARS TO NOT BE AN ISOLATED ONE. *TR
