FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHILE I WAS FILLING UP WITH GAS THE NOZZLE KICKED OFF AND FUEL OVERFLOWED ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY JEEP AND THE GROUND. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE STATIONS PUMP FOR THE ISSUE. A WEEK LATER I WAS AT ANOTHER GAS STATION FILLING UP WITH GAS AND IT DID IT AGAIN ONLY THIS TIME GAS SPILLED ALL OVER MY JEEP, PANTS AND SHOES. EVERY SINCE THE FIRST EPISODE IT HAD HAPPENED EVERY TIME I FILL UP. I HAVE TRIED TO HOLD THE NOZZLE AND PUMP IT SLOWLY, BUT IT STILL HAPPENS. IT IS BEYOND FRUSTRATING TO HAVE TO WASH THE SIDE OF MY JEEP OFF EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS. THIS COULD BE A VERY BIG ISSUE. I HAD THE GAS SPILL ALL OVER MY JEANS AND SHOES MAKING THEM BOTH FLAMMABLE. ALSO, IT COULD HAVE SPLASHED INTO MY EYES. I THINK JEEP NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT.

SUSPENSION, STEERING
I HAVE A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4 DOOR THAT I PURCHASED NEW. APPROXIMATELY ONE YEAR AGO I NOTICED THAT AROUND 50MPH THE VEHICLE WOULD SHAKE AND YOU ALMOST HAD TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP TO GET THE SHAKE TO STOP. THE SHAKE IS NOT ALWAYS VIOLENT, THOUGH IT IS PROGRESSIVELY BECOMING MORE VIOLENT EVERY TIME. ONCE THE SHAKING WAS SO VIOLENT THAT I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND ALMOST WENT INTO THE DITCH. YESTERDAY IT WAS SO VIOLENT THAT I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND WAS VERY CLOSE TO RUNNING INTO A DUMP TRUCK. A FRIEND HAPPENED TO BE DRIVING BEHIND ME AND SAID IT LOOKED AS IF THE ENTIRE JEEP WAS GOING TO SHAKE APART AND THE WHEELS LOOKED LIKE THEY WERE GOING TO FALL OFF. I HAVE HAD THE JEEP LOOKED AT AND INSPECTED BY A MECHANIC AND NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT. AS I RESEARCH THIS ONLINE IT SEEMS MANY JEEP OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THIS PROBLEM AND HAVE LABELED IT THE "DEATH WOBBLE". CHRYSLER DOES NOT SEEM TO BE RESPONDING TO THE PROBLEM THOUGH THEY APPEAR TO BE AWARE ACCORDING TO A LOCAL DEALERSHIP. AT THIS POINT I AM SCARED TO DRIVE MY OWN VEHICLE AND WILL NOT LET MY WIFE DRIVE IT NOR DO I WANT TO PUT MY CHILD IN IT. I AM LODGING THIS COMPLAINT IN HOPES THAT THIS WILL GET INVESTIGATED AND HOPEFULLY CHRYSLER WILL UNDERSTAND THAT THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT NUMEROUS JEEP OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING. I DON'T KNOW WHAT NEEDS TO BE DONE TO FIX IT. I DO BELIEVE THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL SINCE SO MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS BEFORE IT REALLY CAUSES SOMEONE TO BE INJURED OR DIE BECAUSE THEY LOOSE CONTROL OF THEIR VEHICLE. I WAS REALLY ALARMED TO SEE THAT IT IS SO COMMON PEOPLE HAVE NAMED IT "DEATH WOBBLE". *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
EVERYTIME I REFUEL, GASOLINE WILL OVERFLOW AND SPILL ONTO THE GROUND. THE PUMP WILL NOT STOP THE FLOW OF FUEL IN TIME TO PREVENT SPILLAGE. I'VE TRIED TO SLOW THE FLOW AS IT NEARS A FULL TANK, BUT THE PROBLEM HAS PERSISTED. THE ONLY THING THAT WILL STOP THE FUEL FROM OVERFLOWING IS SIMPLY NOT FILLING THE TANK COMPLETELY FULL. I HAVE TO STOP AT ABOUT 7/8THS. *TR
