PREVIOUS MODEL YEAR HAD THE SAME ISSUE AND A SERVICE-BULLETIN WAS ISSUED (14-001-11) WITH UNLIMITED TIME AND MILEAGE EXPIRATION. IT APPEARS TO ME THAT THE GAS TANK HAS A DESIGN FLAW AND SOMEHOW A DEFECTIVE TANK WAS PLACED IN MY VEHICLE, I BELIEVE MY VEHICLE SHOULD APPLY TO THE SERVICE https://plaincars.com/make/jeep-wrangler-2-dr-4x4 https://plaincars.com/make/jeep-wrangler-2-dr-4x4#complaint-1451962 Sat, 03 Mar 2018 00:00:00 GMT WAS INVOLVED IN COLLISION AT 35-45 MPH WHERE DRIVER AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY TO DRIVER.

THIS HAS OCCURRED SEVERAL TIMES AT SEVERAL DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND PUMPS OVER SEVERAL YEARS. THE GAS JUST GUSHES OUT WHEN THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF KICKS IN ON THE PUMP AND CREATES A LARGE SPILL AND ALL OVER JEEP AND TIRES. THIS IS NOW OCCURRING ALMOST EVERY FILL UP AND OCCURRED YESTERDAY AND APPEARS OTHERS ARE HAVING THE SAM https://plaincars.com/make/jeep-wrangler-2-dr-4x4 https://plaincars.com/make/jeep-wrangler-2-dr-4x4#complaint-1448860 Mon, 19 Feb 2018 00:00:00 GMT MANUAL TRANSMISSION POPS OUT OF FIRST GEAR CAUSING VEHICLE TO STALL. THIS OCCURS WHEN STARTING FROM A STOPPED POSITION AS THE CLUTCH IS RELEASED. THIS OCCURS WHEN GOING STRAIGHT AND TURNING. THIS IS DANGEROUS WHEN ENTERING A ROADWAY WITH OTHER TRAFFIC.
