2009 Jeep Wrangler 2-Dr 4x4

FAULTY INSTRUMENT CLUSTER: DISPLAYED FALSE WARNING ALARMS, ESPECIALLY DURING THE FIRST 30 MINUTES OF DRIVING. WHEN TAKEN IN FOR SAFETY RECALLS, JEEP SHOWED 81,000 MILES ON ENGINE COMPUTER, NOT THE 8457 SHOWING ON INSTRUMENT CLUSTER.

HORN DOESN'T WORK AND CRUISE CONTROL DOESN'T WORK AIRBAG LIGHT ON N

I WAS TRAVELING AROUND 50-55 MPH ON A STRAIGHT ROAD, WHEN THE JEEP STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND I ALMOST LOST CONTROL. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND COME TO A STOP. I WAS VERY SHAKEN UP. I DID HAVE IT LOOKED OVER TO SEE IF ANYTHING WAS WRONG. COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING (TIRES, TIE-IN RODS, BALL JOINTS, AND ALIGNMENT). THIS WAS THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I FOUND OUT THEY CALL THIS THE JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. I CHECKED TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL, BUT DIDN'T SEE ONE. I CAN'T BELIEVE THERE ISN'T A RECALL ON THIS WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS I'VE READ. DON'T WAIT TILL SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE I HAD NOTICED IT MADE A NOICE , I HAD A MECHANIC TAKE A LOOK AT IT AND MENTIONED THE SUB FRAME WAS WELDED AND THAT THE CAR WAS VERY RUSTED AND FALLING APART. I WENT BACK WITH IN THE 15 DAYS AND UNDER 500 MILES AND BROUGHT IT TO JASON'S ATTENTION (THE PERSON HO SOLD ME THE VEHICLE, JASON ARGUED THAT ALL JEEPS SUB FRAMES ARE LIKE THAT FROM FACTORY, EVEN TRIED COMPARING IT TO ANOTHER JEEP HE HAD. I HAD TOOK THE JEEP TO A FEW SHOPS FOR EVALUATION AND ALL OF THEM CAME BACK WITH THE SAME BAD RESULTS THAT THE CAR WAS A SAFETY HAZARD. THE VEHICLE WAS ADVERTISED AT DEALER "THAT CAR PLACE" AS A GOOD RELIABLE AND SAFE CAR. MY BIG COCERN IS THAT I KNOW VERY LITTLE ABOUT CARS AND I DON'T FEEL COMFORTABLE IN A CAR THAT HAS SAFETY HAZARDS FOR OTHERS AND MY OWN SAFETY.I HAD REQUESTED A DIFFERENT VEHICLE AND THE REPLY I GT FROM JASON WAS THAT HE COULDN'T DO THAT BECAUSE HE HAD BROUGHT DOWN THE PRICE AN HAD GIVEN ME A DISCOUNT. I DON'T THINK ITS FAIR FOR HIM TO USE THAT EXCUSE AND DENY MY REQUEST JUST BECAUSE I DIDN'T ASK HIM TO IT WAS BY HIS CHOICE.

WE HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING SEVERE WOBBLING OF OUR VEHICLE. THIS HAS OCCURRED THREE TIMES WHILE DRIVING APPROX. 65 MPH, ON A CITY FREE WAY. THE WOBBLING HAS BEEN INITIATED WHERE SLABS OF ROAD MEET, ESPECIALLY IF IT IS NOT EVEN ONE. ON ALL WOBBLING OCCASIONS WERE FORTUNATE ENOUGH TO FIND OURSELVES ON AN OUTSIDE LINE. WE WERE ABLE TO CONTROL THE WOBBLING BY HOLDING THE STEERING WHEEL AND SLOWLY PULLING OVER ON TO THE SHOULDER. I HAVE HAD ALL THE BRAKES REPLACED, FRONT AND REAR SHOCKS AND COILS REPLACED AND TIRE LUBED. WE ARE STILL DRIVING THE VEHICLE VERY CAREFULLY BY AVOIDING ROUGH AREAS ON THE ROAD.

LEFT FRONT DIRECTIONAL HAS REPLACED BULB BUT STILL FLASHES FAST. COMPUTER WAS SCANNED FOR CODES AND TIPM CODE PRESENT. LIGHT SOCKET AND WIRING ALL LOOK GOOD. 2007 WRANGLER HAD A TIPM RECALL. 2009 SHOULD AS WELL.

FUEL SPITS BACK DURING REFUELING CAUSE: VALVE INTEGRATED IN FUEL TANK IS DEFECTIVE, TANK REQUIRES REPLACEMENT. 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 BULLETIN THE SYMPTOMS AND CORRECTIVE ACTION ARE THE SAME

MY JEEP HAS BEEN HAVING AN ONGOING ISSUE WHILE FUELING. AFTER THE FUEL FILLING NOZZLE AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF IT WILL SPIT OUT FUEL ALL OVER ME AND MY VEHICLE. I UNDERSTAND THAT THE WARRANTY ON 2007-2008 JEEP WRANGLER JKS HAS BEEN EXTENDED TO BE A LIFETIME WARRANTY AND MINE DOES NOT FALL UNDER THE WARRANTY, EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE SAME ISSUE. THIS IS NOT JUST AN INCONVENIENCE. GASOLINE CAN CONTAIN HYDROCARBONS, PARAFINS, OLEFINS, CYCLOALKANES, OXYGENATORS, AND AROMATICS INCLUDING BENZENE WHICH IS A KNOWN HUMAN CARCINOGEN. THIS FUELING ISSUE IS NOT ONLY A SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN BUT IT IS ALSO A HEALTH CONCERN FOR YOUR CUSTOMERS.

CORRODED TIRE VALVE STEMS,AND SPLIT NUTS

GAS/ACCELERATOR PEDAL STICKING, CAUSING VEHICLE TO THROTTLE AND ACCELERATE UNCONTROLLABLY AND THE ENGINE TO REV WHEN THE CLUTCH IS PRESSED. THIS HAPPENS WHILE DRIVING.

WHEN FILLING UP MY 2 DOOR JEEP WRANGLER IT NEVER FAILS TO OVERFLOW, IT DOESN'T MATTER WHAT PUMP I USE OR HOW FAST OR SLOW I FILL UP. I HAVE RESEARCHED THAT THEY FIXED A COUPLE YEARS AND MINE DOESN'T FIT INTO THAT. I FEEL IT IS VERY FRUSTRATING THAT THEY WON'T FIX ALL YEARS CONSIDERING THEY KNOW THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE AND A SAFETY HAZZARD AS THE GAS DOESN'T JUST GET ALL OVER MY VEHICLE AND THE GROUND BUT MYSELF AS WELL. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR A COUPLE MONTHS, I THOUGHT IT WAS MAYBE THE PUMP OR THE WAY I WAS PUMPING THE GAS AND NOTHING I HAVE DONE TO CHANGE IT HAS HELPED.

WHEN I REFUEL, WHEN PUMP STOPS GAS COMES OUT.

DASH CLUSTER FLICKERS, JEEP SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING, SOMETIMES STARTS THREW OUT STALL ON ITS OWN. WON'T START ALL THE TIME. HAVE AN ISSUE WE'RE MY BATTERY CABLES ARE MASSIVELY MELTED CAUSING SMOKE.

THE GAS TANK STARTED LEAKING DUE TO THE SKID PLATE SUPPORTING IT ROTTING.I SAW THE GAS ON MY DRIVEWAY SO I TOOK IT TO MY MECHANIC WHO PUT IT ON A LIFT AND SHOWED ME THE PROBLEM

WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 45 AND 55 MPH THE JEEP WILL BEGIN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE SO BAD IT IS HARD TO CONTROL THE STEERING WHEEL, AND THE ONLY REMEDY IS TO SLOW DOWN OR COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THE VIOLENT SHAKING IS INTERMITTENT, I AM ABLE TO DRIVE THE SAME ROUTE WITH NO PROBLEM, AND OTHER TIMES THE VEHICLE WILL GO INTO A VIOLENT SHAKE.

TAKATA RECALL NO ONE SEEMS TO BE ABLE TO REMEDY S33 AND S43. TWO DEALERS HAVE TOLD ME THEY HAVE NO PARTS. ONE OF THEM TOLD ME SINCE IT WAS A 2009 NOTHING HAD HAPPENED YET, I TOLD HIM I HAVEN'T HAD A WRECK YET.

PURCHASED VEHICLE LAST YEAR, SUDDENLY WHEN FILLING THE FUEL, AT THE POINT THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF THE GAS BACK BLOWS DUMPING A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF FUEL ON YOU AND THE GROUND. THIS NEVER HAPPENED BEFORE JANUARY OF THIS YEAR AND HAS HAPPENED THE LAST THREE TIMES I HAVE FUELED MY VEHICLE AT DIFFERENT PUMPS.

TAKATA INFLATORS: I RECEIVE WARRANTIES ON THE PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR AND THE AIRBAG CLOCK SPRING WHICH WAS PERFECT BECAUSE THE LIGHT HAS BEEN GOING ON AND OFF FOR SOME TIME. NOW I'M BEING TOLD THIS IS NOT WHY THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON I AM BEING TOLD THE DRIVER SIDE AIRBAG HAS SOMETHING WRONG WITH IT BEING ABLE TO DEPLOY. WOULD THIS HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE CLOCKSPRING? THEY ARE STILL REPLACING THE RECALLED PARTS BUT MY CONCERN IS WHY WOULD THIS ALL OF A SUDDEN HAPPEN WHEN THERE IS ISSUES WITH THE AIR BAGS AS IT STANDS NOW?

THE PROBLEM IS THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS ACTIVATE ON THERE OWN WITH NO CONTROL. THE GAUGE CLUSTER SHUTS DOWN AND ALL THE DASH LIGHTS TURN ON. YOU LOOSE ABILITY TO CONTROL TURN SIGNALS AND HEADLIGHTS. THE RADIO TURNS OFF. THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON. THIS MAY OCCOUR AT ANY TIME.

EVERY TIME I FILL UP GAS. IT'S SPIT OUT GAS ON THE SIDE OF MY CAR AND ON THE GROUND. THIS HAPPENS FROM THE DAY I OWN THE CAR. THE GAS ATTENDANT TOLD ME THAT IT DOESN'T THAT WITH ALL THE NEWER JEEP.
