In a letter dated August 21, 2014, the Center for Auto Safety (CAS) petitioned the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) to initiate a defect investigation of alleged failures associated with the Totally Integrated Power Module (TIPM) installed in Chrysler SUV?s, trucks, and vans beginning in the 2007 model year. The petitioner alleges that TIPM defects may result in engine stall, airbag non-deployment, failure of fuel pump shutoff resulting in unintended acceleration, fire, and other symptoms. On September 25, 2014, the Office of Defects Investigation (ODI) opened DP14-004 …

In its July 29, 2011 response to ODI's May 27, 2011 information request letter, Chrysler provided 153 MY 2007-2008 owner reports, additional to the 28 ODI Vehicle Owner Questionnaires (VOQs), which related to the illumination of the air bag light (ABL) due to a faulty clockspring (CS) wiring circuit.The right hand drive (RHD) vehicles, which were first produced in MY 2008 and account for only 1% of vehicle production, accounted for 82 of these 181 reports (45%).The MY2007 left hand drive (LHD) vehicle accounted for 61 of the remaining 92 LHD reports and exhibited a higher complaint rate than …

ODI found the rate of warranty claims related to fuel spit back on the subject vehicles is lower than other vehicles previously recalled to correct defects related to fuel spit back.Although the rate of complaints reported to the agency on the subject vehicles is higher than or similar to the rates experienced in previous investigations where safety recalls were conducted, ODI suspects that the NHTSA safety complaints submitted by subject vehicles owners may have been influenced by internet related publicity both before and during this investigation.A safety-related defect trend has not been …

In a letter dated november 3, 2009, chrysler group llc (chrysler), notified NHTSA that it will conduct a safety recall of approximately 161,000 model year (my) 2007 and 2008 jeep wrangler vehicles built with automatic transmissions.chrysler stated that these vehicles were not equipped with a transmission fluid temperature warning system and the operation of these vehicles beyond the limits of reasonable usage over a period of time could result in transmission failure and in some cases transmission fluid expulsion.the expelled fluid could come in contact with a hot engine or exhaust component …

The defective tow bar assemblies involved in this recall were supplied to chrysler for use on some of its jeep wrangler vehicles.the purpose of this investigation was to identify any additional purchasers of identical or substantially similar defective assemblies and to initiate additional defect reporting and safety recalls as necessary.to accomplish this rmd contacted the supplier of the assemblies, valley towing products, and confirmed no other such assemblies were distributed.this eq is therefore closed.

SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT THE CAR BURST INTO FLAMES AND BURNT TO THE GROUND.THE FIRE DEPARTMENT SAID IT WAS CAUSED BY TRANSMISSION FLUID BOILING OUT OF A VENT AND HITTING THE HOT EXHAUST PIPE

WHILE TURNING RIGHT FROM A STOP SIGN ON TO A MAJOR HIGHWAY WITH 55 MILE AN HOUR SPEED LIMIT I BEGAN TO MERGE INTO TRAFFIC WHEN SUDDENLY THE TRANSMISSION JUMPED OUT OF FIRST GEAR CAUSING A LOUD BANGING AND SHIFTIER VIOLENTLY JUMPING BACKWARDS OUT OF MY HAND AND CAUSING MY JEEP TO STOP ACCELERATING ONLY A FEW FEET FROM THE STOP SIGN AND INTO TRAFFIC. I WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY GET THE TRANSMISSION BACK INTO FIRST GEAR AND MERGE WITHOUT INCIDENT. THIS PROBLEM WAS INTERMITTENT FOR ALMOST 6 MONTHS AND NEVER COULD I GET IT TO HAPPEN WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN TO GET SERVICED FOR THIS PROBLEM. THE MORE I DROVE THE JEEP THE MORE OFTEN THE PROBLEM WOULD OCCUR, UNTIL DECEMBER OF 2018 WHEN IT WOULD JUMP OUT OF GEAR ALMOST EVERY TIME I STARTED FROM A DEAD STOP. IT WAS IMPOSSIBLE TO DRIVE ANYWHERE WITHOUT BEING NERVOUS THAT THE NEXT TIME I TRIED TO START FROM A DEAD STOP I WOULD EITHER BE BROADSIDED OR REAR ENDED BECAUSE OF THE SUDDEN LOSS OF POWER. I UNDERSTAND THAT JEEP HAS ISSUED A TECHNICAL BULLETIN FOR THIS PROBLEM BUT I HAVE WAITED FOR PARTS SPECIFICALLY FOR THIS REPAIR FOR SEVERAL WEEKS AND POSSIBLY WILL BE IN IN ABOUT 10 MORE DAYS ACCORDING TO THE SERVICE ADVISOR. I HAVE OWNED SEVERAL MANUAL TRANSMISSION VEHICLES ALL OF THEM FOR OVER 200,000 MILES EACH HAVE NEVER HAD PROBLEMS WITH INTERNAL GEARS AND SYNCHRONIZERS. THE JEEP HAS BEEN SERVICED AND IS WELL TAKEN CARE OF NOT USED FOR TOWING OR ANY OTHER HEAVY LOADING. I DON'T BELIEVE I HAVE DONE ANYTHING OUT OF THE ORDINARY TO CAUSE THIS PROBLEM,

WHEN YOU FILL UP THE GAS TANK, IT OVERFLOWS & SPIT GAS BACK OUT.

THERE IS A USED CAR DEALERSHIP IN PHOENIX ARIZONA CALLED PRIME AUTO, PHONE 602-737-3275. I AM WORKING WITH THE ARIZONA ATTORNEY GENERALS OFFICE AND HAVE (WITHIN JUST A FEW DAYS) COLLECTED STORIES FROM 3 OTHER INDIVIDUALS WITH SIMILAR ISSUES, BEING SOLD A USED CAR THAT WAS UNSAFE ON THE ROADWAYS - MY SITUATION WAS A DEATH WOBBLE IN A JEEP WRANGLER, BLINKERS MALFUNCTIONING, WIPER BLADES NOT WORKING PROPERLY - TWO OF THOSE ARE A LEGAL RESPONSIBILITY OF THE DEALERSHIP (SELLER) TO ENSURE IN WORKING CONDITION AND THEY FAILED. THEY ALSO ATTEMPTED TO FRAUDULENTLY REPRESENT MY CARS TRADE IN VALUE BY SHOWING ME A KBB.COM PRICE THAT IS ONLY FOR CARS TRADED IN REQUIRING REPAIRS, I TRADED IN A NEAR NEW JEEP. IF THE AG'S OFFICE DOES NOT ACT ON THIS CLAIM I WOULD HOPE THAT YOUR OFFICE WOULD, OR AT LEAST WORK TOGETHER IN BRINGING CHARGES TO STOP PRIME AUTO FROM SELLING CARS UNTIL A FULL INVESTIGATION IS COMPLETE AND ALL PREVIOUS CUSTOMERS CONTACTED AND MADE AVAILABLE THEIR LEGAL REMEDIES FOR THE DEALERSHIPS ACTIONS IN SELLING UNSAFE VEHICLES THAT COULD POTENTIALLY HARM MULTIPLE, VICTIMS, NOT JUST THE BUYER. THEIR FACEBOOK PAGE HAS MORE COMPLAINTS SIMILAR IN NATURE TO MINE, HTTPS://WWW.FACEBOOK.COM/PG/PRIME-AUTO-SALES-133282653449388 SO DOES YELP. I STRONGLY ENCOURAGE A LEGAL INJUNCTION TO PREVENT THEIR SALES UNTIL A FULL INVESTIGATION INTO THEIR BUSINESS PRACTICES CONDUCTED OTHERWISE WITH NOTIFICATION, FAILURE TO DO SO WOULD MORALLY AND ETHICALLY BE WRONG AND I HAVE HEARD NOTHING BUT GREAT T

TIPM MODULE IS ACTIVATING THE WIPERS AND HEADLIGHTS. IS NOT ALLOWING TURN SIGNALS TO WORK AFTER DISCONNECTING BATTERY. DASH LIGHTS BLINK, ODOMETER WILL BLANK OUT FOR A SECOND AT TIMES.

WHEN PRESSING THE UNLOCK BUTTON FROM THE KEY TRANSMITTER, THE LIGHTS, HORN, WIPERS AND WINDSHIELD WASHER FLUID ALL START GOING OFF. AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE THE SAME THING HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS MOVED TO REVERSE. WHILE DRIVING, THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER STARTS FLASHING. PROBLEM WAS RESOLVED BY REPLACING THE TIPM. 2008 JEEP IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL FOR THE TIPM

MY JEEP HAS BEEN JUMPING OUT OF GEAR. IN TRAFFIC, DRIVING IN 1ST GEAR, AT ABOUT 5-10 MPH, FLAT TERRAIN IN A STRAIGHT DIRECTION, IT JUMPS OUT OF GEAR. MY JEEP HAS JUMPED OUT OF GEAR IN INTERSECTIONS WHEN I AM STARTING FROM A STOP, FLAT TERRAIN, GOING STRAIGHT OR TURNING, IT WILL JUMP OUT OF FIRST AS I AM ACCELERATING, I HAVE HAD SEVERAL INSTANCES WHERE I WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED. WHEN STOPPING AT A SIGN OR RED LIGHT, AS I START IN 1ST GEAR IT WILL AGGRESSIVELY JUMP OUT OF GEAR CAUSING ME TO ROLL BACK WHEN ON A HILL, WHERE I HAVE ALMOST RUN INTO THE VEHICLE BEHIND ME. THERE IS A SERVICE BULLETIN ISSUED BY MOPAR " NUMBER: 21-001-10 REV. A GROUP: TRANSMISSION DATE: APRIL 20, 2010" I TOOK MY JEEP TO HAVE THE GEAR FIXED ON 04/16/2018 THE PARTS WERE ON BACK ORDER, NOT ARRIVING TO THE DEALERSHIP UNTIL 05/10/2018 AND IT WAS FINISHED ON 05/18/2018. I AM CONVINCED THE BACK ORDER OF MY PARTS IS DUE TO THE FACT THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO MANY OTHER JEEP OWNERS. THE DEALER FOUND MY 1ST GEAR SYNCHRONIZER WAS DAMAGED AND REPLACED IT

WHEN ACCELERATING FROM A STOP IN A 6-SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISION, THE JEEP WILL AT TIMES JUMP OUT OF GEAR WITH A VIOLENT JERK AND LOUD SOUND. THIS COULD CAUSE THE DRIVER TO REACT OR A VEHICLE BEHIND TO REAR END THE NOW NOT MOVING VEHICLE WHILE THE JEEP DRIVER RECOVERS.

GASOLINE OVERFLOWS FROM THE TANK DURING REFUELING AND DOES NOT SHUT-OFF. 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 SAME ISSUE.

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. SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH EARLY JEEP JK WRANGLERS.

SYNCHRO PROBLEM 'JUMPS VIOLENTLY OUT OF 1ST GEAR [JOG] SINCE 35K MILES

THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AT A CONVINCE STORE AND HAD ONLY BEEN DRIVEN ABOUT 3 MILES AFTER SITING FOR OVER 12 HOURS OVERNIGHT. WHILE EXITING THE STORE THE HORN, BLINKERS, DOOR LOCKS AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED ACTIVIATING. THE HORN WAS HONKING, WASHER FLUID SPRAYING, BLINKERS FLASHING AND DOOR LOCKS LOCKING AND UNLOCKING RAPIDLY. I WAS UNABLE TO EXETER THE VEHICLE WITH THE KEY FOB AND HAD TO USE THE KEY TO UNLOCK THE DOOR. THEN AFTER STARTING THE VEHICLE THE ABOVE ISSUES CONTINUED. I CYCLED THE KEY WITH NO SUCCESS. AFTER I OPPENED THE HOOD THE ABOVE MENTIONS ISSUES STOPPED TEMPORARILY FOR APPROXIMATELY 20 SECONDS THEN STARTED AGAIN. I TAPPED THE TIPM AND ALL OF THE ABOVE ISSUES STOPPED. I KNOW THAT JEEP HAS HAD ISSUES WITH TIPM BUT A RECALL WAS NEVER ISSUED TO CORRECT THE DEFECTIVE PART. I FEEL THIS IS A SIGNIFICANT SAFTETY HAZARD AS I WAS UNABLE TO STOP THE COMPONENTS OF THE VEHICLE FOR MALFUNCTIONING. I'M EXTREMELY CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AS IF THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING I WOULD NOT BE ABLE TO SEE DUE TO THE ERRATIC NATURE OF THE WASHER FLUID SPRAY AND WINDSHIELD WIPERS NOT FUNCTIONING.

I RECEIVED A LETTER FROM TK HOLDINGS INC SAYING THAT I HAVE TAKATA AIRBAG INFILTRATORS IN MY VEHICLE THAT CONTAINS "PHASE-STABILIZED AMMONIUM NITRATE PROPELLANT" THAT CAN RUPTURE CAUSING INJURY OR DEATH. I ONLY HAVE UNTIL DEC 27TH TO FILE A COMPLAINT, BECAUSE THEY FILED BANKRUPTCY AND WILL NOT BE RESPONSIBLE AFTER THAT DATE. PLEASE ADD MY VEHICLE TO THE RECALL LIST SO I CAN GET THIS FIXED. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT IS FINE SINCE IT ISN'T ON THE RECALL LIST. THEY CAN'T FIX THEM THANK YOU

WHILE DRIVING, THE HORN, LIGHTS AND WIPERS RANDOMLY GO OFF AND SPRAY FLUID EVERYWHERE. NOTHING CAN BE DONE TO STOP IT AND EVEN TURNING THE CAR OFF DOESN'T. IT CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS TO ME AND OTHER DRIVERS SINCE THEY DO NOT KNOW WHY MY HORN IS GOING OFF FOR MINUTES AT A TIME. I DON'T WANT TO BE BEHIND SOMEONE AT AN INTERSECTION WITH MY HORN AND WIPERS GOING OFF. LOOKING ONLINE I CAN SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THIS MODEL AND SHOULD BE FIXED BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT.

THE JEEP'S HORN, WIPER BLADES, WIPER FLUID AND HEADLIGHTS GO OFF BY THEMSELVES EVEN WHEN THE KEY IS NOT IN THE IGNITION. THEN THE JEEP BEGAN CUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC.

I TOOK MY VEHICLE TWICE TO THE DEALER, MORITZ, IN FORT WORTH AND WAS TOLD THE PASSENGER AIRBAG PROBLEM WAS FIXED BUT ACCORDING TO THIS SITE IT HAS NOT. I'M STILL AWAITING NOTIFICATION THAT THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG PARTS TO COME IN TO GET THAT PROBLEM RESOLVED.

MOUNTING BRACKETS ON MIRRORS DETERIORATED. DRIVER SIDE FELL OFF WHILE DRIVING ABOUT A YEAR AGO. TODAY MY PASSENGER MIRROR FELL OFF IN TRAFFIC ALMOST CAUSING AN ACCIDENT. THE METAL ON THE BRACKET ALMOST LOOKS ROTTEN AND PITTED.

DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE MIRRORS HAVE BOTH FAILED. METAL HOUSING HAS CORRODED AND FAILED. DRIVER SIDE MIRROR HAD VIBRATION WHEN DRIVING, WHEN EXAMINING THE MIRROR IT BROKE OFF (IN FALL OF 2016). PASSENGER SIDE MIRROR FELL OFF WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING. WAS DRIVING STRAIGHT ON SECONDARY ROAD AT ABOUT 35 MPH, NOTHING HIT THE MIRROR TO CAUSE IT TO FAIL. COULD HAVE HIT ANOTHER CAR AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD.. FAILURE APPEARS TO BE CORROSION OF ALUMINUM STRUCTURE AND POSSIBLE STEEL POST THAT HOLDS THE MIRROR. THERE WAS A LOT OF WHITE CORROSION OR MINERAL BUILD UP ON THE REMAINING ALUMINUM. HAVE OWNED THE VEHICLE SINCE NEW, USED PRIMARILY IN MASSACHUSETTS.

ENGINE CAUGHT ON FIRE. JEEP FULLY ENGULFED IN FLAMES.

GOT INTO THE JEEP, STARTED AND PLACED INTO REVERSE, SUDDENLY, WITHOUT PRIOR WARNING AND RANDOMLY THE HORN STARTS GOING OFF, WIPER FLUID SHOOTING OUT AND THE WIPERS GOING LIKE CRAZY, AIR CONDITIONER NOT WORKING AND RADIO BLASTING AND GOING QUIET. . NOTHING YOU CAN DO WILL MAKE IT STOP, THIS WILL BE A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSSUE IF IT HAPPENS WHEN I AM DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. THIS MAKES IT A PROBLEM TO BE DRIVING THIS CAR, AS YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN THE WIPERS AND HORN WILL START GOING CRAZY. I HAVE READ MANY POSTS THAT THIS COULD HAPPEN BOTH WHEN THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY AND WHILE DRIVING. WHY IS THIS NOT A RECALL??? DOES SOMEONE HAVE TO DIE BEFORE JEEP CONCEDE THIS IS A PROBLEM?

LAST YEAR (2016) I HAD A PIECE OF PLASTIC (LOOKS LIKE TAPE) COMING OUT BETWEEN THE STEERING WHEEL AND STEERING COLUMN WHILE DRIVING ON OUR LOCAL STREET. I DIDN'T REALIZE IT WAS WIRES AT FIRST. THIS WIRE 'TAPE' EVENTUALLY BROKE WHICH MEANS YOU DON'T HAVE A WORKING AIRBAG, HORN, ETC. BROUGHT IT TO A LOCAL GARAGE LAST FALL (2016) AND WAS TOLD THE CLOCK SPRING CAUSED THIS AND THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT. PUT THE JEEP IN THE GARAGE FOR THE WINTER AND TODAY (3/2/2017) CALLED THE DEALER TO MAKE AN APPOINTMENT. AFTER GIVING THEM THE VIN # I WAS TOLD THAT THE RECALL DIDN'T APPLY TO MY JEEP WRANGLER. BTW IT ONLY HAD 40,920 MILES ON IT!

TAKATA RECALL: WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY TRAVELING AT 50MPH OR HIGHER, IF THE JEEP HITS A SMALL BUMP, THE VEHICLE WILL BEGIN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE, ONLY STOPPING THE VEHICLE MAKES IT COME TO A STOP. THIS EXTREME WOBBLE MAKES CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE DIFFICULT, WHICH COULD HAVE RESULTED IN SEVERE HIGHWAY ACCIDENTS. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IN ANY TYPE OF INCLEMENT WEATHER.THIS HAS REQUIRED ME TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY SEVERAL TIMES, WHICH IN ITSELF IS ALSO A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO BE IN. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP OF PURCHASE 2 TIMES WITH IN THE FIRST 6 WEEK OF PURCHASE AND THEN THE DEALERSHIP OF PURCHASE SENT IT TO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP WHICH IT HAS BEEN THERE 3 TIME IN A 2 MONTH PERIOD IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIX IT. THEY HAVE REPLACED MY STEERING DAMPENER,SWAY BAR LINK, TRACK BAR, BUSHING, BALANCED MY TIRES, AND REPLACED ANY IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIX THE PROBLEM WHICH HAS NOT TO THIS POINT. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM- CAN'T BELIEVE THERE IS NOT A RECALL!

TANK OVERFLOWS WITH FUEL EVERYTIME I FILL IT UP WITH FUEL CAUSING A SAFETY ISSUE.

MY WRANGLER HEADLIGHTS STOPED WORKING ONE MORNING. TURN THE HEADLIGHT SWITCH ON FOR THEM TO FLICKER ON AND OFF A FEW TIMES OVER 5 SECONDS THEN THEY STAY OFF ALL TOGETHER. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP THEY SCANNED IT TOLD ME IT WAS SHOWING THESE 4 CODES. B162F-RIGHT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT LOW B162C-LEFT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH B162B-LEFT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT LOW B1630-RIGHT LOW BEAM CONTROL CIRCUIT HIGH THEY CHECKED OVER EVERYTHING AND SAID THAT IT WAS A FAULTY TIPM.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER 4X4. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 16V290000 (AIR BAGS) AND 16V352000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PARTS FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIRS. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT....UPDATED 12/14/16 *BF UPDATED 12/19/16.*JB

THE VEHICLE SPILLS FUEL EVERY TIME IT IS FILLED AT THE GAS PUMP. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME IT IS FILLED REGARDLESS OF THE GAS STATION OR OUTSIDE TEMPERATURE. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN 2012.

FOR THE PAST 3 MONTHS I WILL BE DRIVING, IN A PRETTY AVERAGE WAY, NOT SPEEDING OR BRAKING TO HARD, WHEN ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY HORN, ALARM, WIPERS, WINDSHIELD WIPER FLUID, AND LIGHTS WILL GO ON AND WONT STOP FOR UP TO 5 MINUTES, IT HAS DONE THIS WHEN THE JEEP IS STATIONARY, IN MOTION, OR EVEN WITHOUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION

ANTI LOCK BRAKE MODULE FAILED. BRAKE PEDAL WOULD PULSE ON DRY PAVEMENT EVEN AT SPEEDS UNDER 5 MILES AN HOUR BUT WOULD FAIL TO BRING VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP. PROBLEM BEGAN AS INTERMITTENT THEN WOULD RANDOMLY GO FROM PULSING BUT STILL STOPPING THE VEHICLE TO EVENTUALLY THE PEDAL GOING TO THE FLOOR WITH NO PULSING AND NO BRAKES WHATSOEVER. ALSO, NO BRAKE WARNING LIGHT OR ANTILOCK BRAKE LIGHT. I KEPT THE MODULE AND WOULD BE MORE THAN HAPPY TO SEND IT TO YOU FOR EVALUATION. SINCE I HAVE REPLACED THE MODULE (LAST FALL) I HAVE HAD NO FURTHER ISSUES.

THIS AFFECTS 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS. THE CAR VIOLENTLY POPS OUT OF FIRST GEAR WHEN ACCELERATING. THEY EVEN ISSUED A TSB ON IT. IT HAS DONE THIS MULTIPLE TIMES BUT I ALMOST HAD A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT LAST WEEK WHEN PULLING OUT ONTO A MAJOR HIGHWAY FROM A STOP. THIS WILL GET SOMEONE SERIOUSLY INJURED OR KILLED.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE SEVERAL ISSUES PRESENTED WITHOUT WARNING: SUDDENLY THE WIPERS STARTED GOING, WINDSHIELD FLUID SPRAYING, HORN BLARING AND LIGHTS FLASHING. ENGINE THEN CUT OUT WHILE UNDERWAY ON A CITY STREET RENDERING POWER STEERING, BRAKES AND STABILITY CONTROL INOPERABLE. DEALER DIAGNOSED THIS AS A BAD TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM)

RANDOMLY WON'T START. TURN THE KEY AND NOTHING HAPPENS. TRY 2ND OR THIRD TRY, THEN IT'S STARTS. HAVE REPLACE BATTERY, STARTER, TESTED ALTERNATOR , IGNITION, RPM MODULE BOX AND THE FUSE BOX MODULE.CAR DEALER CAN'T FIGURE IT OUT. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN PLAGUING MANY JEEP OWNERS. JEEP MESSAGE BOARDS ARE FULL OF THIS SAME COMPLAINT. THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL FIX. *TR

AIR BAG LIGHT KEEPS CHIMING ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING! BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAY THE AIRBAG IS NOT MAKING CONNECTION DUE TO A FAULTY CLOCK SPRING! CHRYSLER ALREADY HAD A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM FOR "CERTAIN MODEL YEARS" OF COURSE 2008 WASN'T COVERED! THEY NEED TO RECALL THIS AND FIX IT CONSIDERING IT'S BEEN A PROBABLY RIGHT OUT OF THE FACTORY! I HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO FIX THIS SAFETY ISSUE! THIS IS RIDICULOUS CHRYSLER! THE PEOPLE SUPPORT YOU NOW IT'S TIME TO SUPPORT US BACK!

AIRBAG LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY GOES ON AND OFF CONSTANTLY AND WHEN THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THE PROBLEM AS AN ISSUE WITH THE CLOCKSPRING AND ORDERED THE PART, IT HAD TO BE SPECIAL ORDERED BECAUSE IT WAS ON SPECIAL BACK ORDER AND I WAS TOLD I WAS 503 ON THE WAITING LIST! IT IS APPARENTLY A SAFETY ISSUE AS I'M TOLD I HAVE TO REPLACE IT OR THE AIRBAG IS NOT WORKING WHEN THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON. THE REPAIR ESTIMATE IS OVER $530.

FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE MY 2008 WRANGLER IS NOT PART OF THE AIR BAG RECALL. MY LIGHT CAME ON ABOUT 3 YRS AGO HAD TO REPLACE IT TO HAVE IT INSPECTED . TO ME THAT'S ENOUGH TO PROVE IT NEEDS TO BE PART OF RECALL .. VERY DISGUSTED HOW THIS HAS BEEN HANDLED !!!

THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION/STICK SHIFT CONSTANTLY VIOLENTLY POPS OUT OF 1ST AND 3RD GEAR INTO NEUTRAL WHILE ACCELERATING CAUSING A SUDDEN, UNEXPECTED LOSS OF POWER AND CONTROL OVER THE VEHICLE. THE DRIVER MUST COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN TRAFFIC OR HAVE THE VEHICLE CONTINUE TO ROLL FORWARD (OR BACKWARD IF ON AN UPSLOPE) WHILE TRYING TO RE-ENGAGE THE TRANSMISSION. UNLESS AND UNTIL THE DRIVER IS ABLE TO RE-ENGAGE THE TRANSMISSION, THERE IS NO ACTIVE CONTROL OVER THE FORWARD MOVEMENT OF THE VEHICLE TO MAINTAIN VEHICLE SPEED OR AVOID A POTENTIAL COLLISION. THIS CAN LEAD TO SERIOUS DAMAGE AND/OR INJURY TO THE VEHICLE, DRIVER, DRIVERS OF OTHER VEHICLES AND PEDESTRIANS. THIS HAS BEEN A CONTINUING PROBLEM SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS NEW. MANUFACTURE ISSUED A TSB (#21-001-10 REV. A) REGARDING THIS ISSUE CAUSED BY BAD A SYNCHRONIZER ASSEMBLY. DEALER REFUSED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS UNDER WARRANTY B/C IT HAPPENED LESS FREQUENTLY THEN AND DEALER COULDN'T INDEPENDENTLY DIAGNOSE THE PROBLEM. NOW THAT IT HAPPENS CONSTANTLY THE DEALER REFUSES TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM B/C THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY. THIS IS A KNOWN DANGEROUS DEFECT BUT THE DEALER/MANUFACTURER REFUSES TO CORRECT IT.

SPILLS GAS OUT WHEN FILLING UP.

THIS COMPLAINT REFERS TO THE EXISTING AIR BAG CLOCKSPRING WIRING FAILURE BEING INVESTIGATED UNDER EA 15-007 AND PREVIOUSLY PE 15-025. IT IS ALSO CLOSELY RELATED TO SAFETY RECALL 11V258 WHICH INVOLVES THE SAME PART FAILURE. LIKE OTHER OWNERS OF MY 2007-2012 JEEP WRANGLERS THE CLOCKSPRING UNIT IN MY VEHICLE HAS INDICATED IT HAS FAILED WITH THE ABS ERROR CODE B1B02 - "DRIVER AIRBAG SQUIB 1 CIRCUIT OPEN". THE ISSUE HAPPENED SUDDENLY AND HAS PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE HAS JUST OVER 55,000 MILES AND DURING MY OWNERSHIP IT HAS NOT BEEN SUBMITTED TO EXTRANEOUS ENVIRONMENTAL FACTORS. JEEP CUSTOMER CARE WAS NOTIFIED OF MY ISSUE (CASE # 29226734) BUT DID NOT PROVIDE OR OFFER REMEDY.

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.

I PURCHASED A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER 2DR 4X4 FROM FREDERICO DODGE CHRYSLER IN WOODRIVER ILLINOIS ON 04/04/2016. I WAS INFORMED THAT THE WIN MODULE WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO GO BACK TO THE DEALER. RED LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING AND THE TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS COMES ON AS WELL. I TOOK IT BACK AND GOT ISSUES WITH THEM AND WAS TOLD IT WAS REPLACED. THE RED LIGHT AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT IS STILL COMING ON WHILE I AM DRIVING. (ELECTRICAL ISSUE). I WAS ALSO INFORMED THAT I HAVE A REAR MAIN SEAL (ENGINE) THAT IS LEAKING AND TRANSMISSION COOLANT LINES LEAKING ( TRANSMISSION). I TOOK BACK TO THEM AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE IS A DIFFERENCE BETWEEN A LEAK/SEEPAGE AND THAT WOULD NOT BE COVERED UNDER MY 3000 MILE/3 MONTH (ENGINE/TRANSMISSION) WARRANTY. I HAVE ONLY OWNED NEW DODGE VEHICLES AND WAS TREATED WITH PROFESSIONALISM. I BOUGHT A USED VEHICLE WITH THE WARRANTY GIVEN AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS INSPECTED AND WAS TREATED LIKE MY PROBLEMS WERE NOT THERE PROBLEM. I AM ASKING THAT THIS MAINTENANCE ISSUE GETS RESOLVED UNDER MY WARRANTY. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. RESPECTFULLY SUBMITTED, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

AIR BAG LIGHT AND AUDIBLE ALARM COMING ON, EVERY TIME I DROVE THE VEHICLE. I WAS WORRIED THE AIR BAG WOULD DEPLOY ACCIDENTALLY OR THAT IT WOULD NOT DEPLOY IF I HAD AN ACCIDENT. I TOOK TO DEALER IN THOMSON, GA.PAID $594 TO HAVE AIRBAG CLOCK SPING REPLACED.

AIRBAG LIGHT GOES OFF AND ON, DRIVING OR SITTING

THE DEATH WOBBLE IS A NIGHTMARE. IT'S TERRIFYING, NOT OTHER WAY TO DESCRIBE IT. THE ENTIRE CAR SHAKES SO VIOLENTLY YOU HAVE NO CHOICE BUT TO STOP. IT HAPPENED ON BUSY HIGHWAY (NJ TURNPIKE) AND I ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE I HAD TO STOP THE JEEP WITH PEOPLE TRAVELLING AT SPEEDS OF 65MPH AND GREATER. I'VE CALLED DEALERSHIPS, THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT. IT SOUNDS LIKE A WASTE OF MONEY FOR ME TO EVEN ATTEMPT TO FIX IT. WHY HAS THE JEEP WRANGLER NOT BEEN RECALLED FOR THIS REASON? IT'S OUTRAGEOUS FOR THE AMOUNT OF MONEY THESE CARS COST.

FOR THE PAST 2-3 YEARS I KEEP HEARING TICKING FROM MY ENGINE. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY SAID ITS NOTHING. I REPLACED THE SPARK PLUGS AND CABLES THINKING THAT IT WAS THE CAUSE OF THE TICKING NOISE. I ALSO CHANGED THE EXHAUST, BUT THE TICKING KEPT ON GOING. FOR THE PAST 3 MONTHS I STARTED SMELLING FUMES IN THE CABIN AND WHEN I RESEARCHED IT, IT SEEMS LIKE JEEP WRANGLERS SEEM TO HAVE A LOT OF ISSUES WITH CRACKED EXHAUST MANIFOLD. I PLAN ON TAKING IT TO THE SAME DEALER, WHO TOLD ME FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS, THAT I HAVE NO ISSUES TO GET IT FIXED UNDER THE LIFE TIME WARRENTY

TRANSMISSION COOLER LINES ARE LEAKING FLUID AT THE HOSE TO TUBE CRIMP JOINTS.CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID FOR MY VIN NUMBER THERE IS NO RECALL. ITS MY UNDERSTANDING THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2008-2009 JK AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION LINES LEAK AT HOSE CRIMP JONTS FORFOR CERTAIN MANUFACTURING MONTHS IN THOSE YEARS BUT NOT IN MINE IT WASBUILT IN JANUARY2008.CHRYSLER WINN NOT ASSIST IN COST OR REPACEMENT.ITS OUT OF WARRANTY AND ONLY HAS 40,503 MILES ON IT.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CONTINUALLY TURNS ON AND OFF IN MY JEEP. THIS IS ACCOMPANIED WITH A CONTINUOUS WARNING PING THAT GOES OFF WHEN YOU ARE ALMOST OUT OF GAS OR NEED SOMETHING CHECKED ASAP. THIS IS PROBABLY BECAUSE THE AIRBAG WILL NOT WORK AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD. 2007 JEEPS HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS AND IT IS A FAULTY COIL SPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL. LOOKING ON ANY FORUM SITE OR EVEN THIS ONE AND YOU WILL SEE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE. JEEP TOLD ME THAT I WOULD NEED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO GET THIS FIXED UNTIL A RECALL IS ISSUED. CONSIDERING MY JEEP AND MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THIS OCCUR WELL BEFORE 100K MILES THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE PART THAT THEY ARE PUTTING INTO THE CARS.

DEATH WOBBLE, 50+ MPH, MINOR BUMP VIOLENT FRONT END SHAKING, UNABLE TO STEER OR BRAKE. COAST UNTIL NEAR STOP AND THEN CONTINUE AS IF NOTHING HAPPEN. TO BE ON SAFE SIDE REPLACED ENTIRE FRONT END WITH QUALITY PARTS AS NO PART TESTED BAD BUT REPLACEMENT PARTS USA MADE WERE BETTER QUALITY THAN ORIGINAL. STOCK 45K VEHICLE. COMBINATION OF POOR DESIGN WITH SLIGHT WEAR. ANY COMBINATION SOONER OR LATER IS GOING TO CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. RESEARCH SHOWS THIS HAPPENS OFTEN WITH NO ACTUAL RECOURSE, IT WAS EXPENSIVE BUT SAFEST RECOURSE. NOT SURE WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESS BY MANUFACTURE AS ONLINE VIDEO'S ARE ACCURATE. TRUST ME, SIX FLAGS HAS NOTHING THAT WILL RATTLE YOU MORE.

VEHICLE WHEN PARKED AND / OR WHILE DRIVING WILL START BLARING THE HORN, SPRAYING WIPER FLUID, WIPERS ENGAGE, LIGHTS GO ON AND OFF / THEN OFF AND THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT STOP IS TO BATTERY OR GIVE THE TIPM AN EASY TAP ON THE TOP. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO DEALER AND THEY WANT TO START REPLACING ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS STARTING WITH THE CHEAP ONE AT 350.00. THIS STARTED HAPPENING AT AROUND 40K MILES AND AT THE TIME THERE WERE NOT ANY MODIFICATIONS ON THE JEEP.

MY KIDS AND I WAS DRIVING IN MY 2008 JEEP RUBBICON 4 WHEEL DRIVE OFF ROAD VEHICLE ON MY LAND WHEN MY JEEP CAUGHT FIRE CAUSING A TOTAL LOSS AND CAUSING OTHER DAMAGES LIKE BURNING MY FIELD UP AND FOUR WHEELER ..I CALLED 911 TO COME ARRIVED 8 MIN LATER AND PUT THE JEEP OUT ALONG WITH THE FIELD AND ATV ..THEY MADE REPORT ON THE DAMAGES JEEP STILL REMAINS IN FIELD AT THIS TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER 2-DOOR 4X4. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CLOCK SPRING FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

AN UNSAFE CONDITION IS CREATED UPON COMPLETION OF REFUELING. AFTER PUMP CUT-OFF FUEL SPILLAGE OCCURS ON EVERY REFUELING OPERATION. THIS CONDITION IS UNAFFECTED BY CHANGING SPEED AT WHICH REFUELING IS PERFORMED. THIS IS NOT DUE TO "TOPPING OFF," REGARDLESS OF PUMP SPEED, ON FIRST PUMP CUT-OFF SPILLAGE OCCURS. THIS CONSTITUTES WASTED MONEY AND CREATES A PERSONAL SAFETY HAZARD AS WELL AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON EVERY FILL-UP FOR THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS, MOST RECENTLY TODAY, 29 NOVEMBER 2015.
