STEERING, SUSPENSION
I PURCHASED A USED 2004 JEEP WRANGLER 5 MONTHS AGO. IT HAD ONLY 15K MILES ON IT. SHORTLY AFTER PURCHASE IT BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY BETWEEN THE SPEEDS OF 55-60, AND WHEN THERE ARE ROAD IMPERFECTIONS. I HAD THE TIRES BALANCED. NO FIX. THE SHOP KEPT THE JEEP FOR THREE DAYS LAST WEEK AND CANNOT LOCATE THE SOURCE OF THE PROBLEM. APPEARS THIS IS A "DEATH WOBBLE" ISSUE FROM THE STRONGLY-DOCUMENTED CASES IN JEEP WRANGLERS. THERE APPEARS TO BE NO PERMANENT FIX. THERE HAVE BEEN NO RECALLS THAT I CAN FIND. I OWE FOR THIS VEHICLE THAT I CANNOT EVEN DRIVE! *TR

STEERING
I HAVE A 2004 JEEP WRANGLER. IT HAS WHAT I FOUND, LISTED ON THE INTERNET FORUMS, DESCRIBED AS A "DEATH WOBBLE". THIS IS AN EXTREME SHAKING OF THE STEERING AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 55 AND 65. IT IS SO SEVERE THAT I HAD TO PULL OFF OF THE FREEWAY AND STOP BEFORE THE SHAKING WOULD STOP. NO ONE SEEMS TO KNOW HOW TO PERMANENTLY SOLVE THE PROBLEM. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING THE CAR WITH FUEL AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS OVER THE LAST 3 MONTHS THE FUEL PUMP DOES NOT SHUT OFF. THIS CAUSES GASOLINE TO SPILL OUT OVER THE FILLER NECK. THE SPILL IS STRONG ENOUGH WHERE IT SPEWS BACK A FEW INCHES TOWARDS THE PERSON STANDING NEXT TO THE TANK. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
MULTIPLE INSTANCES OF GAS TANK IN MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED OVERFLOWING, DUE TO POSSIBLE CHECK VALVE MALFUNCTION AND/OR IMPROPER DESIGN FROM FACTORY. *TR WHEN FILLING ONES GAS TANK, YOU WOULD EXPECT THE PUMP TO STOP ONCE THE TANK HAS REACHED ITS CAPACITY. HOWEVER DUE TO A FAULTY IN-TANK CHECK VALVE, THE PUMP NEVER GETS THE PRESSURE CHANGE AS A SIGNAL TO STOP THE FLOW. HENCE, EVERY TIME I FILL UP I END UP SPILLING A NOT-INSIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FUEL ON THE GROUND. THIS ISSUE IS ABSOLUTELY NOT OPERATOR ERROR, IT IS A KNOWN DEFECT BY JEEP/CHRYSLER.

STEERING
2007 WRANGLER UNLIMITED BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY AFTER GOING OVER A MINOR ABRUPTNESS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 50 MPH. ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND HAD TO SLOW TO 25 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY TO GET IT TO STOP SHAKING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS HAS OCCURRED, AS I HAVE ALREADY TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO CHRYSLER TO FIX THIS AND NOW IT IS OCCURRING AGAIN. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION AS THE DRIVER COULD EASILY LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE AND THE DRIVER MUST BRAKE HARD AND SLOW DOWN IMMEDIATELY TO GAIN CONTROL, THEREBY RISKING BEING REAR-ENDED BY THE CAR BEHIND HIM/HER. *TR
