POWER TRAIN
VEHICLE'S TRANSMISSION INCONSISTENTLY SHIFTS FROM FIRST GEAR TO NEUTRAL FROM A STANDING STOP TO ACCELERATION. FORCE OF THE VEHICLE COMING OUT OF GEAR IS SO GREAT THAT IT FEELS AS IF A COLLISION HAS OCCURRED FROM BEHIND. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS OF THESE OCCURRENCES THE VEHICLE HAS ENTERED INTO AN INTERSECTION CAUSING A DECELERATION AND SUBJECTING THE VEHICLE AND OCCUPANTS TO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. THIS WAS FIRST REPORTED TO THE DEALER IN DECEMBER OF 2009. DEALER REPORTED THE PROBLEM COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED AND THE PROBLEM WAS NEVER ADDRESSED. *TR

THE FUEL SPITS BACK OUT WHEN FULL AS I FILL THE TANK UP. NOT JUST A LITTLE, BUT A LOT OF GAS SPILLS OUT ON ME, THE GROUND, AND THE GROUND. I HAVE TRIED MANY DIFFERENT GAS PUMPS AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. JEEP KNOWS ABOUT THE ISSUE, BUT HASN'T RECALLED IT YET. THEY ONLY REPLACE YOUR GAS TANK WITH THE SAME ONE THAT WILL STILL CAUSE THE SAME PROBLEM. IT IS A SERIOUS HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE. *TR

MY 2008 4DR JEEP WRANGLER SPILLS FUEL ALMOST EVERY TIME I FILL IT UP. I HAVE TRIED FILLING SLOWLY AND CAREFULLY POSITIONING THE PUMP NOZZLE WITH NO CHANGE. I HAVE READ MANY JEEP FORUMS AND IT APPEARS THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. MY CONCERN IS THAT THIS COULD BECOME A FIRE HAZARD AT THE PUMP. *TR

THIS IS NOT A "TOP-OFF" SITUATION IT IS ON THE FIRST AND ONLY ATTEMPT. THIS HAS OCCURRED AT MULTIPLE STATIONS AND MULTIPLE PUMPS AT THOSE STATIONS. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM. *TR

SUSPENSION:FRONT
WHILE DRIVING MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 62 MILES PER HOUR, I DROVE OVER THE VERY SMALL BUMP THAT IS CREATED BETWEEN THE ROAD AND A SMALL BRIDGE. MY JEEP (WITH 37,000 MILES ON IT) STARTED TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE STEERING WHEEL WAS ALMOST UNCONTROLLABLE AND THE TIRES WERE LOSING CONTACT WITH THE ROAD. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND STOP ON THE HIGHWAY TO REGAIN CONTROL OF MY VEHICLE. THIS IS WHAT I NOW HAVE COME TO KNOW AS THE JEEP "DEATH WOBBLE" . I HAVE BEEN TRYING TO WORK WITH MY DEALER, BUT APPARENTLY EVERYONE WHO OWNS A JEEP KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM - EXCEPT JEEP. THIS DEATH WOBBLE HAS HAPPENED ABOUT SIX TIMES IN THE LAST THREE MONTHS. *TR

DURING FILLUP, FUEL WILL EJECT OUT OF THE TANK OPENING NEARLY EVERY TIME. THE GAS STATIONS PUMP WILL SHUT OFF WHEN IT DETECTS A FULL TANK, BUT ABOUT 1 SECOND LATER GASOLINE WILL ERUPT OUT ONTO THE JEEP'S BODY, THE FILLER HOSE, AND SOMETIMES MYSELF. THE ONLY TIME IT DOESN'T OCCUR IS WHEN THE FILLING STATION HAS THE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF SENSITIVITY SET MORE SENSITIVE THAN IS NORMAL. *TR
