2008 Jeep Wrangler 4-Dr 4x4 complaints

I HAVE EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE IN MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER 10 TIMES IN THE LAST 2 MONTHS. I HAVE HAD MY JEEP AT THE SHOP 3 TIMES NOW. I HAVE GOTTEN THE RUN AROUND REGARDING WHAT THE PROBLEM IS. CHRYSLER WOULD LIKE ME TO BY AN AFTERMARKET STEERING DAMPER BUT I WILL NOT PAY FOR THIS SINCE MY WARRANTY WILL NOT COVER IT. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO INVESTIGATE WHAT IS REALLY CAUSING THE PROBLEM INSTEAD OF BAND-AID SOLUTIONS. I CAN GUARANTEE IF I AM INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT AS A RESULT OF THE DEATH WOBBLE, THEY WILL HAVE A LAWSUIT ON THEIR HANDS. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK IT OVERFLOWS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE JEEP, GROUND, ETC. I'M NOT TALKING A LITTLE DRIP. IT GUSHES OUT. I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. I HAVE TRIED LOCKING THE LEVER IN THE SLOWEST POSITION THINKING MAYBE I'M FILLING IT TOO FAST. I HAVE TRIED POSITIONING THE NOZZLE FURTHER IN AND FURTHER OUT. NOTHING SEEMS TO HELP. *TR

WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE A LARGE AMOUNT OF FUEL OVERFLOWS FROM THE FUEL RECEPTACLE 1-2 SECONDS AFTER THE PUMP CUTS THE FLOW OF FUEL. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FILLED AND HAS OCCURRED USING IN EXCESS OF 20 DIFFERENT FUELING STATIONS. FUEL SPILLS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND. THIS CREATES A SAFETY HAZARD. *TR

JUST RECENTLY FUEL BACKFLOWS OUT OF MY GAS TANK AFTER THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. IT HAPPENS EVEN IF I SHUT IT OFF EARLY AND PAY ATTENTION TO HOW FULL THE TANK IS. *TR

DURING THE FIRST WEEK OF SEPTEMBER 2010, WHEN REFUELING MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED, WHEN THE GAS STATION FUEL PUMP /NOZZLE AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF, FUEL BEGAN TO OVERFLOW / BACKFLOW AND SPILL OUT ONTO THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND THE GROUND. THIS CONTINUED TO HAPPEN ALMOST EVERYTIME I REFUELED. I BEGAN STOPPING THE FUEL NOZZLE MANUALLY WHEN IT SOUNDED LIKE THE FUEL WAS GETTING CLOSE TO THE NOZZLE. IT WOULD STILL OVERFLOW ON OCCASION. NOW I HAVE TO REFILL THE JEEP'S GAS TANK JUDGING BY HOW LOW THE GAS GAUGE READS AND HOW MANY GALLONS I PUT IN. USUALLY I FILL THE GAS TANK A TO LITTLE OVER THREE QUARTERS OF A TANK. I DO NOT FEEL COMFORTABLE FILLING UP THE GAS TANK UNTIL IT IS FULL OR FILLING IT UNTIL THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF WHEN IT SENSE THE TANK IS FULL BECAUSE THE AMOUNT OF OVERFLOW VARIED, BUT IN WORST CASES I ESTIMATED IT WAS ANYWHERE FROM 10 FLUID OUNCES TO 32 FLUID OUNCES WHICH REALLY CONCERNS ME. THERE WERE TIMES WHEN THE GAS LITERALLY GUSHED OUT ENOUGH TO SPLASH ONTO THE THIGH AREA OF MY PANT LEG AND SHOES, WHILE I WAS STANDING A GOOD 18 INCHES FROM THE JEEP. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR 4X4. THE CONTACT STATED WHENEVER DISPENSING FUEL CLOSE TO THE FULL LEVEL, THE FUEL WOULD IMMEDIATELY SPRAY OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THEY STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A FAULTY FUEL PUMP NOZZLE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 43,000.

GAS COMES SHOOTING OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE ON MY 2008 WRANGLER EACH TIME I FILL UP. *TR

GAS OVERFLOW PROBLEM WHEN FILLING THE TANK. WHEN THE GAS PUMP CLICKS OFF (WHEN THE TANK IS FULL), GAS SPLASHES OUT THE FILL TUBE. *TR

FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS A LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS WHENEVER I FILL THE TANK. I ESTIMATE APPROXIMATELY 6 -10 OUNCES IS SPILLED DOWN THE BODY AND ONTO THE GROUND EVERY TIME I ATTEMPT TO FILL IT UP. WILL OVERFLOW EVEN WHEN I FILL IT SLOWLY. STARTED HAPPENING AT APPROX 37,000 MILES. HAPPENS AT ALL GAS STATIONS. *TR

I JUST BOUGHT A USED 2008 WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON WITH 37,000 MILES ON 1/21/2011. THE DEALER OFFERED A FREE TANK OF GAS WITH A WITH THE PURCHASE SO WE WENT DOWN TO THE LOCAL FILLING STATION AND HE PROCEEDED TO FILL THE JEEP UP . I WAS IN THE PASSENGER SEAT AT THE TIME AND INSIDE THE JEEP THE SMELL OF GAS WAS VERY PRONOUNCED. AS HE WALKED AWAY TO PAY THE FOR THE GAS I GOT OUT OF THE JEEP AND THERE WAS A 2FT PUDDLE OF GASOLINE BEHIND THE JEEP. HE AND I GOT BACK IN TO THE JEEP AND HE COMPLAINED THAT THE PUMP DID NOT SHUT OFF AND HAD SPILLED GASOLINE ON HIS CLOTHES AND SHRUGGED IT OFF. THIS MORNING 1/28/2011 I STOP BY TO FILL UP THE JEEP AND LOW AND BEHOLD THE PUMP CLICKED OFF WHEN FILLING UP THE JEEP AND THE ALL OF THE SUDDEN THE GASOLINE STARTED TO RUN OUT OF THE FUEL TANK FILLER NECK AND ONCE AGAIN A 2FT PUDDLE OF GASOLINE, SHOES AND CLOTHES WITH GAS ON THEM... NOT A GOOD START TO THE MORNING. SO CAME TO WORK AND STARTED TO SEARCH THE INTERNET AND THERE IS A LOT OF TALK OF MANY OF THIS STYLE OF JEEP WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM WRITING YOU TO LET YOU KNOW THAT I THINK THERE IS A SAFETY CONCERN WITH THIS VEHICLE AND I AM PLANNING TO TAKE IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TO HAVE THEM ASSESS THE PROBLEM BUT I THINK THAT YOU SHOULD LOOK INTO THIS PROBLEM AS WELL. *TR

I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. SOMETIMES WHEN I USE THE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF ON THE GAS PUMP, IT SHUTS OFF TOO LATE AND ~0.25 GAL. OF GASOLINE WILL SPRAY OUT OF THE FILL PORT AND SPILL DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN AT EVERY PUMP, BUT FREQUENTLY ENOUGH THAT I CAN NO LONGER USE THE AUTO FILLING FEATURE. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHETHER I SET THE "AUTO HOLD TAB" OR MANUALLY DEPRESS THE PUMP HANDLE. THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM AND NOT A SINGLE-TIME EVENT. *TR

FOR APPROXIMATELY THE LAST 5000 MILES, WHEN FILLING MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WITH GAS, ABOUT ONE SECOND AFTER THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF TO INDICATE THE TANK IS FULL OF FUEL, APPROXIMATELY 8-12 OUNCES OF FUEL IS FORCEFULLY EJECTED OUT OF THE FILL NECK. THIS OCCURS AT EVERY FILL UP REGARDLESS OF GAS STATION BRAND. *TR

WHEN FILLING UP THE GAS TANK, AUTO-SHUT-OFF OF THE GAS DISPENSER OCCURS TOO LATE. GAS POURS OUT OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES IN THE PAST 3 MONTHS (AT EVERY FILL UP). TO FIX THE PROBLEM, I STOP THE FILL UP BEFORE AUTO-SHUT-OFF. JEEP / CHRYSLER SAYS THE GAS TANK MUST BE REPLACED. *TR

JEEP UNLIMITED BURPS GAS OUT WHEN TANK IS FULL OR ALMOST FULL. GAS SPILLAGE OCCURS ON JEEP AND GROUND AND ANYTHING ELSE IN THE AREA. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR4X4. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY BETWEEN 60-65 MPH, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE CONTACT REDUCED SPEED AND CAME TO A STOP. THE VEHICLE RESUMED IN OPERATION WITHOUT THE VIBRATION. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE THE STABILIZER BAR AND STEERING DAMPER WERE REPLACED. THE FAILURE OCCURRED AFTER THE REPAIR AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER. THE TECHNICIAN INFORMED THAT A PART WAS ORDERED AND DID NOT PROVIDE ADDITIONAL ANY INFORMATION PERTAINING TO THE REPAIR. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN AT THE DEALER FOR ONE MONTH AND CURRENTLY REMAINED THERE UNTIL REPAIRED. THE FAILURE WAS APPROXIMATELY 20,000.

WHEN TRYING TO FILL FUEL TANK, THE GAS WILL OVERFLOW BACK OUT THE OPENING. THIS HAPPENS NO MATTER HOW FAR THE NOZZLE IS INSERTED. THIS CAN BE MUCH WORSE IF THE JEEP IS POINTED SLIGHTLY DOWNHILL VERSUS LEVEL OR SLIGHT UPHILL. GASOLINE WILL FLY OUT ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE WRANGLER AND CAN COAT THE PERSON PUMPING FUEL. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHERE I GET THE GAS. THIS STARTED AT 35000 MILES AS HAS GOTTEN WORSE. *TR

NOTHING HAS LEAD TO FAILURE. GAS POURS OUT THE FILL HOLE WHEN THE TANK IS ALMOST FULL EVERY TIME I TRY TO FILL THE TANK. IT HAS HAPPENED FOR ALMOST A YEAR NOW. IT IS DANGEROUS AND CAUSES GASOLINE TO SPILL ON THE JEEP, GROUND, AND PERSON FILLING THE JEEP. *TR

CONNECTIONS WITHIN THE CLOCK SPRING ON OUR JEEP FAILED CAUSING THE AIR BAG LIGHT TO TURN ON AND OFF AND THE WARNING BELL GO OFF WHEN THE WHEEL IS TURNED. *LN

2008 JEEP JK UNLIMITED X. FUEL RUSHES OUT OF THE GAS TANK FILLER NECK EVERY TIME I FILL UP. DUMPS PROBABLY HALF A GALLON ON THE GROUND AND DOWN THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS WHILE FILLING UP WITH GASOLINE. OCCURS EACH TIME I FILL THE TANK UP. *TR

GAS SPILLING OVER WHEN FILLING GAS TANK ON A JEEP WRANGLER 2008 4 DOOR. I STARTED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2010. THIS SEEMS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH ALL CURRENT GEN WHEN THE REACH THE 2 YEAR OR 20,000 MILE MAKER. *TR

WHEN FUEL TANK IS FILLED, AS SOON AS THE FUEL PUMP NOZZLE "CLICKS" OFF (INDICATING THE GAS TANK IS FULL, SEVERAL OUNCES OF GASOLINE "SPITS" OUT. IT SPITS OUT IN A FASHION TO DIRECTLY LAND ON THE SHOES AND/OR PANTS LEG OF THE PERSON OPERATING THE FUEL PUMP. THIS OCCURS ON THE FIRST CLICK (AS OPPOSED TO THOSE SITUATIONS THAT OCCUR WHEN SOMEONE IS "TOPPING OFF" THE GAS TANK). IT OCCURS ON EVERY FUEL TANK FILLUP, EXCEPT IN THOSE SITUATIONS WHERE THE GAS PUMP OPERATES NOTABLY SLOWER THAN MOST SERVICE STATIONS. THE AMOUNT OF GASOLINE THAT ENDS UP ON THE GROUND IS TYPICALLY AT LEAST 2 OR MORE FEET IN DIAMETER. THE DEALER HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THAT THESE FUEL TANKS DO NOT VENT PROPERLY AND THAT CAUSED THE PROBLEM. MANY YOU TUBE VIDEOS DEMONSTRATING THE PROBLEM. ENVIRONMENTAL - RAW GASOLINE DISPENSED ON THE GROUND PERSONAL - RAW GASOLINE ON CLOTHING/SKIN, WITH ISSUES OF STRONG GASOLINE ODOR IN PASSENGER COMPARTMENT SAFETY - POTENTIAL DISASTROUS ISSUES IF SPARK WERE TO OCCUR. *TR

THE FAILURE IS THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION VIOLENTLY POPS OUT OF FIRST GEAR WHEN STARTING TO ACCELERATE. THIS ISSUE HAPPENS INTERMITTENTLY. WHEN IT HAPPENS, THERE IS A COMPLETE LOSS OF POWER TO THE WHEELS PRESENTING A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE, ABOUT A CUPFUL OF GAS POURS OUT THE TOP AFTER THE PUMP CLICKS OFF. THIS HAPPENS AT EVERY STATION, ON EVERY FILL UP. THIS I BELIEVE PRESENTS A SAFETY ISSUE AS GASOLINE IS NOW ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ON THE GROUND. *TR

WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK, FUEL SPILLS/GUSHES ON VEHICLE AND PERSON FILLING IF STANDING NEXT TO FUEL NOZZLE WHEN PUMP CLICKS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. SPILL/OVERFLOW RANGES FROM ABOUT ONE QUART TO A HALF GALLON OF FUEL AND CAN CAUSE VEHICLE/PAINT AND ENVIRONMENTAL DAMAGE AS WELL AS INJURY TO PERSONS REFUELING VEHICLE AND IS ALSO A FIRE HAZARD. *TR

EVERY TIME I PUMP GAS INTO MY '08 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED X GAS SPLASHES OUT. I DO NOT "TOP OFF" THE TANK; THE GAS SPLASHES OUT AFTER THE FIRST CLICK OF THE GAS PUMP. *TR

"DEATH WOBBLE" WHEN THE VEHICLE HITS A BUMP SUCH AS AN EXPANSION JOINT AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 60-70 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY TO THE POINT THAT CONTROL IS LOST ON ALL BUT DRY PAVEMENT. THE VEHICLE MUST BE SLOWED TO LESS THAN 50MPH BEFORE THE SHAKING STOPS. NO WARNING OR ESP LIGHTS ILLUMINATE DURING THE EPISODES. DEALER REPLACED A LEAKING STEERING SHOCK ON THIS VEHICLE AND SUSPECTS IT IS THE CAUSE BUT I HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO TEST ON THE SAME STRETCH OF ROAD TO CONFIRM. WHILE IN THE WAITING ROOM, ANOTHER 07+ JEEP WRANGLER OWNER WAS PICKING UP HIS VEHICLE AFTER RECEIVING THE SAME REPAIR FOR THE SAME SYMPTOMS.

2008 JEEP WRANGLER X UNLIMITED AT APPROX 30,000-32,000 MILES I HAVE STARTED TO HAVE AN ISSUE WHEN FILLING UP WITH GAS. THE PROBLEM IS WHEN THE TANK GETS FULL AND THE PUMP CLICKS OFF ABOUT A 1/2 GALLON OF GAS SPRAYS OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO WHOEVER IS WITHIN A COUPLE OF FEET. THIS PROBLEM STARTED SUDDENLY AND HAS NOW CONTINUED FOR THE LAST MONTH EVERY TIME I FILL UP REGARDLESS OF WHERE I CHOOSE TO PURCHASE MY FUEL. I'VE PURCHASE GAS IN TWO DIFFERENT STATES AND THE PROBLEM EXISTS NO MATTER WHERE I AM AT THE TIME OF THE FILL UP. *TR

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: I HAD PURCHASED A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER ABOUT YEAR AGO FROM A LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN PRESCOTT, ARIZONA. ABOUT 2-3 WEEKS AFTER BUYING IT MY SON HAD COME HOME SAYING THE WHOLE VEHICLE STARTED SHAKING WHILE HE WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. WE TOOK THE JEEP OUT ON A RIDE AND COULD NOT MAKE THE VEHICLE SHAKE AGAIN. A FEW WEEKS LATER IT HAPPENED TO ME, SO WE TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP (TIM'S AUTO IN PRESCOTT.) THEY HAD OUR VEHICLE FOR A FEW WEEKS, AND WHEN WE WENT TO PICK IT UP WE WERE TOLD THEY FOUND NO PROBLEMS. THEY HAD, 'TAKEN IT APART, PUT IT BACK TOGETHER AND DRIVEN IT AROUND,' WITH NO ISSUES. THEY ACTED LIKE I WAS MAKING UP THE WHOLE PROBLEM. SINCE THEN WE HAVE ONLY HAD A FEW OUTBURSTS, BUT WE JUST LIVED WITH IT. THEN, TODAY (1-4-11) AS I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY IT BEGAN TO WOBBLE A LITTLE. I WAS CLOSE TO HOME, SO I KEPT GOING. THE JEEP STARTED TO VEER INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC, I SLAMMED ON THE BREAKS AND IT STARTED TO TURN THE OTHER WAY. I WAS ON A FOUR LANE HIGHWAY, GOING 65 MPH WITH CARS ON EITHER SIDE. I WAS ALMOST HIT TWICE (BOTH WOULD HAVE BEEN CAUSED BY ME) BY THE TIME I GOT ONTO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. MY HUSBAND WAS OUT OF TOWN AND DAUGHTER WAS WORKING TWO TOWNS OVER, I HAD NO CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE HOME. I GOT BACK INTO THE CAR, STARTED DRIVING, AND GOT ABOUT 5 MILES FARTHER BEFORE THE VEHICLE STARTED SHAKING AGAIN. I PUT ON MY EMERGENCY FLASHERS AND GOT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I CALLED AND COULD NOT GET A HOLD OF ANY ONE SO I GOT IN AND DROVE HOME A

MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER SPILLS FUEL EVERY TIME I FILL IT UP. WITHOUT WARNING JUST AFTER THE GAS PUMP CLICKS OFF GAS SPILLS OUT ONTO THE GROUND. THE AMOUNT OF GAS SPILLED IS ABOUT 4 OZ. IF YOU ARE CLOSE IT SPILLS ON TOP THE PERSON PUMPING. A FIRE DANGER NO DOUBT. *TR

THE LAST THREE TIMES I HAVE FILLED MY TANK WITH GAS IT HAS SPIT A QUART OR SO OF GASOLINE BACK OUT ALL OVER THE VEHICLE, GROUND AND ME. THIS OCCURRED AT THREE DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AT THREE DIFFERENT TIMES OF THE DAY AND AFTER DIFFERENT DRIVING PATTERNS. ABOUT 1 SECOND AFTER THE GAS PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF, GAS SPITS OUT FROM THE FUEL TANK. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS BEFORE AND THAT THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THIS IS NOT ONLY AN INCONVENIENCE, IT IS A DEFINITE SAFETY HAZARD! *TR

FUEL OVERFLOWS FROM THE FUEL FILL WHEN FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK, EVERY TIME I FILL UP. *TR

MY JEEP SHOOTS GAS OUT WHEN IT IS FULL EVERY TIME I FILL IT UP. THIS PROBLEM HAS STARTED AS THE JEEP REACHED ABOUT 20,000 MILES. DEALERSHIP CANNOT FIND A PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL OVERFLOW WHEN FILLING UP MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED 4DR., WHEN AT OR NEAR FULL CAPACITY AT THE GAS PUMP. THE GAS OVERFLOWS OUT ONTO THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND ONTO THE FENDER AND GROUND, NEARLY SPLASHING ONTO ME AS I AM STANDING AT THE FUEL FILLER CAP AREA AT THE JEEP. THIS HAS HAPPENED TWICE IN THE PAST TWO MONTHS, NOVEMBER AND DECEMBER 2010 WHILE FILLING UP MY 2008 JEEP WITH GASOLINE TO FULL LEVEL. *TR

WHEN FUELING, THE PUMP CLICKS OFF BUT FUEL WILL SPLASH UP ON ME AND ALL DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND UNDESIRABLE. LAST THING I NEED IS STRAY STATIC ELECTRICITY IN THE WINTER SETTING ME ON FIRE! *TR

GOT LOW AIR WARNING FROM TPMS. WENT TO GAS STATION CHECKED PRESSURE IT WAS 28PSI. ATTEMPTED TO ADD AIR AND STEM BROKE COMPLETELY OFF. WENT TO DEALER AND HAD TO REPLACE STEM. I SEE THAT THIS IS A COMMON OCCURRENCE IN COLD WEATHER FOR NUMEROUS CHRYSLER AND JEEP BRANDED VEHICLES WITH TPMS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT COULD HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING OR LEAVES PEOPLE STRANDED. *TR

2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED FUEL SPILLS OUT OF FILLER OPENING AS/BEFORE THE GAS PUMP AUTO SHUT OFF STOPS THE FUEL FLOW. ALTHOUGH ID DOESN'T HAPPEN AT EVERY FILL UP IT IS A REGULAR OCCURRENCE SINCE I'VE OWNED THE VEHICLE. *TR

2008 JEEP WRANGLER JK - GAS OVERFLOW (THIS ISSUE IS THE SAME AS THAT REPORTED IN INVESTIGATION PE10032) WHEN FILLING UP WITH FUEL AT THE SERVICE STATION, GAS OVERFLOWS AND SPRAYS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, THE GROUND, AND THE PERSON OPERATING THE PUMP. THIS IS A VERY HAZARDOUS SCENARIO AND COULD RESULT IN A FIRE, EXPLOSION, INJURY, OR DEATH. THIS SHOULD BE CONSIDERED A RECALL ON THE VEHICLE IN QUESTION. 1. NO EVENTS HAVE LED UP TO THE FAILURE. 2. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE. 3. THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT AT THE JEEP DEALERSHIP SAYS THE ONLY WAY TO REMEDY THE FAILURE IS TO COMPLETELY REPLACE THE ENTIRE GAS TANK ASSEMBLY. *TR

WHEN FUELING VEHICLE, THE TANK APPEARS TO OVERFLOW AND GAS POURS OUT WHEN PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF. APPROX 1 TO 2 CUPS OF FUEL LEAKS OUT AND ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ON THE GROUND. THIS PROBLEM STARTED AFTER 30000 MILES AND HAPPENED OCCASIONALLY IN THE BEGINNING BUT NOW HAPPENS AT EVERY FILL UP. *TR

2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED HAVING FUEL SPEW FROM FILLER PIPE WHEN FILLING TANK. THIS OCCURS JUST AS TANK IS FULL AND FUEL PUMP AUTOMATICALLY STOPS. THE AMOUNT OF FUEL SPILLED IS ABOUT 500 CC AND COMES OUT AS A BUBBLY MIXTURE. THE FUEL SPILLS ON THE VEHICLE AND ON TO THE GROUND. IT WILL GET ON THE PERSON FILLING IF STANDING CLOSE. THE PROBLEMS STARTED AT ABOUT 37K MILES AND IS NOW OCCURRING WITH NEARLY EVERY FILL-UP. THERE IS NO WARNING THAT THIS IS GOING TO HAPPEN THAT WOULD ALLOW ONE TO STOP THE PUMP BEFORE THE OVERFLOW OCCURS. *TR

WHEN DRIVING THE JEEP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THE FRONT END WILL SHAKE VIOLENTLY. IT BECOMES VERY HARD TO STEER THE JEEP. YOU HAVE TO ALMOST COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE THE SHAKING WILL STOP. SHAKING HAS A SIMILAR FEEL TO A TIRE BLOW OUT. MY JEEP HAS BEEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 3 TIMES FOR THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM. IT STARTED AT ABOUT 12,000 MILES. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE STABILIZER SHOCK 2 TIMES BUT THAT DOES NOT FIX THE PROBLEM. THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE STOCK JK MODEL WRANGLER JEEP. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS BEFORE SOMEBODY GETS SERIOUSLY HURT. THERE IS PLENTY OF ACCOUNTS OF THIS ON THE INTERNET. YOU CAN SEE VIDEO ON YOUTUBE. JUST SEARCH ON JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. *TR

2008 JEEP WRANGLER X UNLIMITED......GAS SPILLS OR "BURPS" OUT OF THE FILL ALMOST EVERYTIME NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION OR GAS PUMP I USE. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED USED, I TALKED TO DEALER AND THEY TOLD ME I NEEDED TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK AND WASN'T A WARRANTY ISSUE. THIS CONTINUES TO HAPPEN AND GAS IS SPLASHED OUT ON VEHICLE, GROUND AND ON MY PERSON. THIS IS DANGEROUS THERE COULD BE A FIRE. *TR

I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WITH APPROXIMATELY 45000 MILES ON IT. OVER THE LAST 6 MONTHS OR SO I HAVE BEEN HAVING AN ISSUE WHEN I FILL MY GAS TANK, WHERE THE PUMP WILL NOT SHUT OFF AND THE TANK WILL OVERFLOW, SPEWING GASOLINE OUT AND ONTO THE GROUND. THIS OCCURS APPROXIMATELY 3 OUT OF 5 TIMES OR MORE, AND AT DIFFERENT LOCATIONS. I FEEL THIS IS A HAZARD AND SAFETY ISSUE. I HAVE CHECKED SEVERAL JEEP FORUMS, AND IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE 2008 JEEP WRANGLERS, POSSIBLY INVOLVING THE FILL LINE OR VENT TUBE. SOME FORUM MEMBERS HAVE STATED THAT CHRYSLER HAS REPLACED BOTH AFOREMENTIONED ITEMS, OR THE ENTIRE TANK ASSEMBLY. CAN YOUR AGENCY PLEASE LOOK IN TO THIS AS A POSSIBLE RECALL SITUATION. THANK YOU! *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED X(NA). THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR RECALL 09V436000 (POWER TRAIN: AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION). THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REMEDY DID NOT CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THERE WAS NO FAILURE MILEAGE.

FUEL OVER FLOW, WHEN FILLING GAS TANK ...ALL THE TIME. *TR

GAS OVERFLOWS FROM FILLER CAP WHILE REFUELING. THE LAST 2 TIMES I HAVE REFUELED, THE PUMPS HAVE FAILED TO AUTOSTOP AND GASOLINE HAS OVERFLOWED OUT OF THE FILLERCAP. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT 2 SEPARATE GAS STATIONS WHICH LEADS ME TO BELIEVE IT IS AN ISSUE RELATED TO THE DESIGN OF THE JEEPS GAS FILLER CAP/TUBE. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK IN MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER, REGARDLESS OF WHAT GAS STATION I USE, GAS WILL OVERFLOW. IT DOESN'T JUST OVERRUN, IT SHOOTS OUT THE FILLER NECK. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. I'M CONCERNED THAT, IF THIS ISN'T ADDRESSED, IT WILL RESULT IN AN UNCONTROLLED FIRE. *TR

PLEASE SEE PE10032. SAME ISSUE. FUEL SPILLS OUT OF THE FILLER PORT DURING THE REFUELING PROCESS. THIS CONDITION GENERALLY OCCURS WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS FILLED TO THE FULL OR NEARLY FULL LEVEL AND THE GAS PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OR CLICKS OFF. THE SPILLED FUEL CAN SPLASH ON ME WHEN FUELING THEVEHICLE, OR ON THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND. *TR

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. FOR THE LAST 6 OR MORE MONTHS NOW, THE JEEP IS HAVING A FUEL FILLING ISSUE. WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK OF THE JEEP, YOU CAN NEVER DO IT WITHOUT THE GASOLINE GUSHING OUT AT THE END. REGARDLESS IF YOU PUMP IT MANUALLY OR AUTOMATICALLY, IT DOES IT. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION IN ADDITION TO CAUSE HAZMAT SPILL (GASOLINE). AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT WAS THAT SPECIFIC GAS PUMP AND/OR GAS STATION. THIS IS NOT THE CASE AS IT HAPPENS ANYWHERE AND EVERYWHERE. I DECIDED TO INVESTIGATE THE ISSUE BY DOING SEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND FOUND OUT THAT IT IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE THAT IT IS WELL KNOWN BY ALL PARTIES AND STILL, NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO RESOLVE IT. THE QUALITY PARTY IS THE ROLL OVER CHECK VALVE WHICH ADDS A ANOTHER SAFETY ISSUE TO IT. THIS VALVE IS BUILT IN INTO THE TANK AND THUS, THE WHOLE TANK MUST BE REPLACE AND THE ISSUE WILL STILL BE BACK IN MOST CASES. JEEP NEEDS TO RE-DESIGN THE VALVE TO FIX THE PROBLEM RATHER THAN JUST POSTPONE IT BY CHANGING THE GAS TANK. *TR

GAS OVERFLOWS OUT OF GAS TANK EVERY TIME TANK IS FILLED UP. *TR
