I TOOK MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP TO TAKE A LOOK AT GAS TANK SENSOR, I HEARD THAT WAS A RECALL, EVERYTIME I FILL MY TANK, THE GAS NOZZLE DOESN'T STOP AND YOU SEE GAS SPILLING ALL OVER. THE DEALERSHIP SAID HE FIXES AS ITS SHOWN ON THEIR DIGNOSE. HAVEN'T DROVE SINCE THEN, TODAY I DROVE IT AND IT HAD 1/4 GAS IN THE TANK, I STOPPED BY THE GASTATION TO FILL UP THE TANK, FOUND OUT THAT IT DOESN'T ALLOW ANY MORE GAS IN THE TANK AND GAS SPILLING ALL OVER AGAIN, THE GAS GAUGE IS WORKING ALONG WITH FUEL WARNING SIGNAL, ITS SO WEIRD AND UNSAFE.

IN FEB 2015 MY 07 JEEP WRANGLER STARTED MAKING ODD NOISES AND RUNNING POORLY THAN IS STOPPED. MY JEEP HAD 69,500 MILES ON IT AND A SERVICE WAS DONE WITHIN 1,500 MILES. IT WAS TOWED TO THE SERVICE CENTER- IT DID NOT HAVE A DROP OF OIL IN IT AND THE ENGINE WAS BLOWN. THERE WAS NO INDICATION OF A OIL LEAK ANYWHERE! NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON EITHER. JEEP REFUSED TO EVEN LISTEN OR ASSIST IN ANY WAY. $6K LATER...... I HAVE A NEW ENGINE AND CHECK IT EVERY WEEK! NOW WHEN I PARK AND GET BACK IN THE JEEP IT WONT START- WONT EVEN TURN OVER. IT WILL FINALLY START AFTER 4-5 TURNS OF THE KEY. ITS NOT HEAT, NOT DISTANCE, NOTHING BEING LEFT ON, NOT CONSISTENT- THERE IS NO RHYME OR REASON AT ALL!! A MAN IN A GAS STATION HEARD ME TRYING TO START THE JEEP AND CAME OVER AND SHARED THIS- PUSH ON THE SHIFTER REALLY HARD AND IT WILL START- IT DID AND HAS EVERY TIME NOW. WHEN I STOP I JUST MAKE SURE I PUSH ON THE SHIFTER. THERE IS NO RECALL AND NO SERVICE BULLETIN BUT IS NORMAL IN THE 07 IT APPEARS.

JEEP DEATH WOBBLE BREAKING FRONT CONTROL ARM AND TRACK BAR BRACKET CAUSING LOSS OF STEERING SHOOTING THE VEHICLE ACROSS 2 LANES ROAD, THANKFULLY NO ON COMING TRAFFIC AND WAS ABLE TO STOP VEHICLE IN GRASS PRIOR TO THE DITCH. SECOND EPISODE OF THIS, 1ST EPISODE THAT CAUSED BRACKET FAILURE AND THE BRACKET WAS FIXED, ALIGNMENT AND ALL FRONT SUSPENSION COMPONENTS WERE CHECKED, JEEP CONTINUES TO DO DEATH WOBBLE AND IS A HAZARD TO DRIVE. THIS INCIDENT HAPPENED AT ABOUT 51 MPH, PREVIOUS INCIDENTS HAVE HAPPENED WITH OUT EQUIPMENT FAILURE RANGING FROM 45MPH - 52MPH. I AM AFRAID THAT INJURIES WILL HAPPEN IF CHRYSLER DOES NOT ADDRESS THIS MATTER AS IT IS WELL DOCUMENTED ON THE INTERNET WITH 2007-2012 JEEP WRANGLERS AND IT BEING A MANUFACTURER'S FLAW ON THESE MODELS.

THERE WAS NOT A FIRE BUT THOUGHT THERE WAS AND 911 WAS CALLED. I HAD THE OIL CHANGED IN MARCH AND AGAIN IN JULY. IN SEPTERMBER THERE WAS A CLICKING NOISE COMING FROM THE ENGINE AND I PULLED INTO A DRIVE WAY AND SHUT OFF THE ENGINE. I ASKED SOMEONE TO LOOK AT IT AND WHEN THEY TRIED TO START THE ENGINE SMOKE CAME OUT OF THE VENTS AND ENGINE WOULD NOT TURN OVER. TURNS OUT, THAT THE JEEP HAD NO OIL IN IT AND THE ENGINE BURNED UP. THE REPAIR FOR A NEW ENGINE IS $5200. THERE WERE NO WARNING LIGHTS AT ALL. NO "CHANGE OIL NOTICE", "LOW OIL PRESSURE" LIGHT, "OVERTEMP" LIGHT, OR "CHECK ENGINE" LIGHT. HAD THERE BEEN SOME KIND OF WARNING LIGHT BEFORE I RUINED THE ENGINE IT WOULD NOT BE SO COSTLY. *TR

WHILE TRYING TO PUT GAS INTO MY 2007 JEEP JK WRANGLER UNLIMITED, FUEL STARTED TO POUR OUT THE UNDERSIDE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE MECHANIC AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT A LARGE CRACK WAS ON THE FILLER NECK THAT IS ATTACHED TO THE FUEL TANK. THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT DUE TO THE DISCOLORATION OF THE PLASTIC INLET IT HAS BEEN LEAKING FOR A WHILE. UPON REMOVING THE TANK, THEY ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THE SPRING INSIDE THE NOZZLE IS HIGHLY DEFECTIVE. APPARENTLY, THE SPRING IS SUPPOSED TO PUSH BACK ONCE THE FUEL TANK IS FULL. AS A JEEP OWNER FOR YEARS I?M EXTREMELY ANGRY THAT AN INEXPENSIVE PART MADE POORLY COULD OF COST THE LIFE OF MY FAMILY, FRIENDS AND ANYTHING WITHIN RANGE IF A FIRE ERUPTED. CHRYSLER SHOULD RECALL THESE DEFECTIVE TANKS IMMEDIATELY. I CAN PROVIDE PHOTOS OF THE FILLER NECK AND NOZZLE. *TR

IT'S THE 5TH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. WHILE DRIVING MY JEEP WRANGLER AT MORE THAN 45 MILES AN HOUR THE FRONT END BEGINS TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. I BEGIN TO LOSE CONTROL. I HAVE TO APPLY BRAKES AND NEARLY STOP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS CAUSING SAFETY ISSUES FOR OTHER DRIVERS. CHRYSLER HAS ADMITTED TO THE ISSUE AND HAS ISSUED A SERVICE BULLETIN 19-002-12. THIS FIRST HAPPENED WHEN MY JEEP WAS UNDER WARRANTY AND THEY FIXED IT. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY CONCERN. *TT

I WAS DRIVING ON A 4 LANE HIGHWAY AT 60MPH WHEN THE CAR STARTED VIBRATING SO VIOLENTLY I THOUGHT I HAD LOST A WHEEL. I COULD BARELY CONTROL THE CAR AND WAS SURROUNDED BY 18 WHEELERS. I WAS HORRIFIED. I PULLED ONTO THE SHOULDER AND GOT OUT EXPECTING TO SEE A FLAT TIRE BUT EVERYTHING LOOKED FINE. I GOT BACK IN AND DROVE DOWN THE ROAD ONLY TO HAVE IT HAPPEN AGAIN WHEN I WENT OVER 55MPH. I CALLED EMERGENCY SERVICE AND HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THEY "FIXED" IT AND CHARGED ME FOR THE WORK DONE. BUT WHEN I DROVE IT AGAIN AT 53MPH WHEN I HIT A BUMP IT STARTED VIBRATING AGAIN. I NOW NEVER DRIVE OVER 50MPH OVER THE FEAR OF IT HAPPENING AGAIN. I LOOKED IT UP ON THE INTERNET AND IT IS CALLED DEATH WOBBLE AND JEEP WILL NOT HELP US. I HAVE NOT ALTERED MY VEHICLE AT ALL. THIS IS A DANGEROUS DEFECT AND NEEDS A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE DIES. PLEASE DO SOMETHING BEFORE IT IS TOO LATE. IT IS LIKE DRIVING ON THE WORST WASHBOARD ROAD YOU EVER SAW AT 60MPH SURROUNDED BY TRAFFIC. IT IS A REC

WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROADWAY AND I HIT A BUMP THE STEERING WHEEL AND TIRES BEGIN VIOLENTLY SHAKING. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS FOR OVER A YEAR AND HAVE REPLACED SEVERAL THINGS IN MY FRONT END WITHOUT LUCK. MY JEEP WAS COMPLETELY STOCK PRIOR TO THIS INCIDENT. THIS HAPPENS MORE OFTEN DURING THE WINTER AS I HAVE PUT UP WITH THIS FOR THE SECOND WINTER NOW. I HAVE TAKEN THE JEEP TO 2 DEALERSHIPS IN MY AREA AND THEY BOTH TOLD ME THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THE PROBLEM. AS EVERYONE KNOWS THAT HAS EXPERIENCED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" BEFORE IT IS EXTREMELY COMMON AND JEEP WONT ADMIT TO THE PROBLEM. THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM AND WILL INJURE SOMEONE SOONER OR LATER. SADLY MY FELLOW JEEP OWNERS AND I, LOVE OUR JEEPS AND JUST CONTINUE TO PUT UP WITH THE PROBLEM. PLEASE HELP US PUSH JEEP INTO FIXING OUR JEEPS AND REDESIGNING FUTURE JEEPS. *TR

MY 2007 JEEP WAS IN THE SHOP FOR VARIOUS REPAIRS, HOWEVER THIS ONE TOOK THE CAKE! I ARRIVED HOME FROM WORK (6 MILES AWAY) WHEN I NOTICED SMOKE COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. I FOUND IT WAS OVERHEATING, NO INDICATOR LIGHT TO WARN ME, TEMPERATURE GAUGE WAS AT NORMAL BUT THE SMELL OF ANTI-FREEZE WAS PRESENT. TOWED IT TO THE DEALER AND FOUND THE HEATER HOSE ASSEMBLY, TO BE MELTED THROUGH FROM THE "BAD" DESIGN, OF HAVING IT TOO CLOSE TO THE ENGINE. ALSO IT APPEARED TO HAVE TWO SLICES IN THE HOSES , WHERE THE CLAMPS WERE TOO CLOSE TO THE BEND IN THE HOSES. IT COST ME OVER $100.00 TO HAVE IT FIXED. *KB

HAD MY JEEP WRANGLER IN FOR PROBLEMS WITH THE BRAKES CHUGGING (WHICH WAS MENTIONED WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, BUT COULDN'T DUPLICATE). THEY EXPLAINED THE SERVICE ATTENDANT COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING, HOWEVER THEY DIDN'T TEST DRIVE IT. I THEN INSISTED AND THEY FOUND A ROTOR WAS BAD. BEFORE IT WAS TAKEN IN TO THE GARAGE I CHECKED THE BRAKE FLUID AND IT WAS DOWN TO THE MINIMUM LINE. THE BRAKES HAD CONTINUED TO GET SPONGY AND NOT RESPONDING. THE REPAIRS TO THIS WAS $312.00! I WAS TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP, THAT CHRYSLER HAS USED THIN METAL ON THE ROTORS CAUSING THESE PROBLEMS. *KB
