ON THE 2008 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DASHBOARD, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT FLASHES ON EVERY OTHER MINUTE WITH A CHIME, AN INDICATION THAT THERE IS SOMETHING MALFUNCTIONING OR INTERFERING WITH THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS.THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE AND CONCERN FOR MANY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) OWNERS, INCLUDING MYSELF, AND HAS BEEN SHOWN TIME AND TIME AGAIN TO BE CAUSED BY A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING WITHIN THE VEHICLE'S STEERING WHEEL. THIS FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS THE CULPRIT FOR POTENTIAL AIRBAG FAILURE IN THE 2008 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DURING AN ACCIDENT OR PREMATURE DEPLOYMENT WHEN SIMPLY DRIVING AROUND. DAIMLER CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY CONCERN OF THEIR FAULTY CLOCKSPRING THAT CAN CAUSE FAILURE OF THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS FROM PROPERLY DEPLOYING.

HORN GOES ON & STAYS ON, WIPERS GO CONTINUOUSLY, WIPER FLUID FLOWS CONSTANTLY, BACK UP LIGHTS GO ON, HEATER FAN GOES OFF & ON, THE ENGINE CONTINUES TO RUN WITH THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION AND THE LAST TIME THE ABS CAME ON WHILE I WAS DELIVERING MAIL AND MY BRAKES LOCKED UP. ONCE IT HAPPENED WHILE PARKED ( THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING WITHOUT KEYS), ALL OTHER TIMES I WAS DRIVING ON RURAL ROADS AND IN DEVELOPMENTS, BOTH DRIVING HOME & DELIVERING MAIL.

WHEN TRYING TO FILL GAS TANK IT WILL NOT TAKE THE FUEL AS IT SHUTS THE PUMP OFF. IT TAKES ABOUT 20 MINUTES TO PUT IN $10 WORTH OF GAS IN. IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE.

Mileage: 38,000

THE GAS TANK CAN NOT BE FILLED WITHOUT CONSTANTLY RE-STARTING THE FUEL PUMP, IT STOPS EVERY FEW SECONDS, IT HAPPENS AT EVERY GAS STATION OR ANY FUEL PUMP, SO IT IS DEFINITELY NOT THE PUMP BUT A PROBLEM WITH THE JEEP GAS TANK AND/OR IT'S COMPONENTS. IT GOT WORSE OVER THE LAST FEW WEEKS AND MONTHS AND IS TO THE POINT NOW WHERE IT TAKES ME 10-15 MINUTES TO FILL UP 11 -15 GALLONS OF FUEL. THE GAS TANK WAS REPLACED UNDER A RECALL BACK IN 2011 (AT APPROX. 34000 MILES) WHERE WITH THE OLD TANK THE FUEL PUMP WOULD NOT STOP IN TIME WHEN FULL AND THEREFORE IT RESULTED IN THE "SPILL-BACK" PROBLEM EVERY TIME. THIS PROBLEM WAS FIXED WITH REPLACEMENT AFTER RECALL, BUT NOW I HAVE THE PROBLEM THAT I JUST HAVE THIS EXTREMELY DIFFICULT TIME FILLING THE TANK. *TR

GEARS ENGAGING WITH DELAY AS VEHICLE GETS HOT. WHEN PUTTING THE JEEP FROM THE PARK POSITION INTO DRIVE, THE VEHICLE HAS A DELAY ENGAGING WHICH GETS WORSE THE WARMER OR HOTTER THE CAR GETS AND OR THE LONGER IT RUNS. THIS PROBLEM BECAME WORSE OVER THE LAST 12 MONTHS. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THE SAME/SIMILAR PROBLEM IN CERTAIN SPECIFIC BLOGS/FORUMS AND IN FEW CASES THE VEHICLE HAS ACTUALLY CAUGHT ON FIRE, SO NOW I AM WONDERING IF THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE AND WHAT TO DO ABOUT IT. *TR

MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER RHD CAUGHT FIRE WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I WAS TURNING ONTO THE HWY AND DROVE A FEW FEET AND NOTICED SMOKE. I IMMEDIATELY PULLED OFF OF THE ROAD,SHUT THE CAR OFF AND POPPED THE HOOD. AS SOON AS I LIFTED THE HOOD I SAW FLAMES!! I CONTACTED JEEP AND THEY'RE "SUPPOSED TO BE DOING AN INVESTIGATION". THERE WASN'T ANY KIND OF WARNING THE CAR WASN'T EVEN RUNNING ANY DIFFERENTLY. SCARY STUFF ESPECIALLY FROM A VEHICLE THAT WASN'T GIVING ME ANY PROBLEMS. DISAPPOINTED TO SAY THE LEAST,BUT FOLKS NEED TO KNOW FOR SAFETY REASONS. VEHICLE IS A TOTAL LOSS!! *TR

ENGINE WARNING LIGHT CAME ON UPON STARTING VEHICLE. CHECKED ALL FLUIDS, AND THAT GAS CAP WAS TIGHT. CONTACTED DEALERSHIP WHO SAID TO DRIVE IT FOR A FEW DAYS TO SEE IF LIGHT REMAINED ON. INDICATOR LIGHT WENT OFF SEVERAL DAYS LATER. MY ENGINE IS NOW EXHIBITING WHAT SOUNDS LIKE A STUCK LIFTER AND CHRYSLER IS REFUSING TO HONOR THE WARRANTY ON THE LIFETIME POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. I ALSO HAD A STEERING DAMPENER FAIL ON THE VEHICLE AT 32K MILES WHICH CHRYSLER MADE ME PAY HALF FOR FIXING. *TR

I AM TIRED OF NOT BEING ABLE TO FILL UP MY GAS TANK ALL THE WAY. I'VE HAD TO STOP THE GAS PUMP A GALLON OR TWO BEFORE MY TANK IS FULL SO I WON'T WASTE GAS OR GET ANY GASOLINE SPILLED ON ME. EVERY TIME I TAKE MY JEEP IN FOR SERVICE OR AN OIL CHANGE I ALWAYS ASK IF THERE IS A RECALL YET TO FIX THIS GAS SPILLAGE PROBLEM. I HAVE HAD SO MANY OTHER RECALLS & OTHER PROBLEMS WITH MY JEEP I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THIS ONE ISSUE HAS NOT BEEN SERIOUSLY ADDRESSED YET. I'M TIRED OF HAVING TO BABYSIT A GAS PUMP EVERY TIME I PUT TEN OR ELEVEN GALLONS IN. IT WOULDN'T BE SUCH A PROBLEM IF THIS JEEP WOULD GET BETTER GAS MILEAGE BUT IT DOESN'T SO I AM AT THE GAS STATION MORE OFTEN THAN I SHOULD BE JUST BECAUSE I CAN'T EVER FILL UP MY TANK ALL THE WAY. *TR

I WAS TOLD BY THE JEEP MECHANIC I HAVE TO REPLACE THE CLOCK SPRING, I HAD THIS REPLACED ALREADY AT ABOUT 40,000 MILES. I NOTICED THERE IS A RECALL, MINE ISN'T ON THAT LIST AND I FEEL IT SHOULD BE. I HAVE NO HORN AND AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON ALL THE TIME. *TR

THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING. HAD IT CHECKED LAST YEAR 1/14/11, THE DEALERSSHIP INSPECTED AND FOUND CODE FOR CLOCK SPRING, REPLACED CLOCK SPRING AND CLEARED CODES AND SYSTEM WAS OPERATING PROPERLY AT THE TIME. THE DEARLERSHIP CHARGED 364.48. NOW IT IS ONE YEAR LATER AND THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS BACK ON. IT GOES ON AND OFF THE WHOLE TIME WHLIE YOU ARE DIVING. I THINK THIS SHOULD ME LOOKED INTO BECAUSE IF THE AIRBAGS GOES OFF WHILE YOUR DIVING, IT COULD CAUSE YOU TO HAVE A CRASH OR INJURY OR DEATH TO YOU OR SOMEONE ELSE IN ANOTHER VEHICLE. *TT
