SOME COMBINATION LAMPS THAT ARE NOT EQUIPPED WITH AMBER SIDE REFLECTORS FAIL TO CONFORM TO FEDERAL MOTOR VEHICLE SAFETY STANDARD NO. 108, LAMPS, REFLECTIVE DEVICES, AND ASSOCIATED EQUIPMENT.

Risk. WITHOUT THE AMBER REFLECTORS, THE VEHICLE WILL BE POORLY ILLUMINATED, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A VEHICLE CRASH WITHOUT WARNING.

Defect. BESTOP AFTERMARKET REAR SHELL ROOF RACKS,MANUFACTURED BETWEEN APRIL 27 AND MAY 20, 2004, DESIGNED FOR USE WITH THE BESTOP HARDTOP MADE FOR THE 1986-1995 AND 1997-2003 JEEP WRANGLER. THE COCKPIT COVER MAY NOT STAY LATCHED TO THE ROOF RACK BECAUSE THE LATCH BRACKET MISPOSITIONS THE ROTARY LATCH TO THE COCKPIT COVER. AS A RESULT, THE COCKPIT COVER MAY NOT STAY LATCHED TO THE ROOF RACK AND COULD SEPARATE FROM THE ROOF RACK. THIS RECALL ONLY PERTAINS TO AFTERMARKET REAR SHELL ROOF RACKS AND HAS NO RELATION TO ANY ORIGINAL EQUIPMENT INSTALLED ON JEEP WRANGLER VEHICLES BY DAIMLERCHRYSLER.

Risk. SHOULD THIS OCCUR, THE COCKPIT COULD CAUSE INJURY BY STRIKING PERSONS OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE OR COULD BECOME A DISTRACTION OR AN OBSTACLE TO OTHER DRIVERS, POSSIBLY RESULTING IN A VEHICLE CRASH.

Remedy. REPLACE THE FUEL TANK SENDING UNIT GASKET.

Defect. SALT CORROSION PRODUCTS BETWEEN THE STARTER SOLENOID WIRE AND THE ADJACENT BATTERY FEED IN THE BULKHEAD CONNECTOR MAY SHORT THESE CONNECTIONS, CAUSING THE CIRCUIT TO BYPASS THE IGNITION KEY CONTROL OF THE STARTER MOTOR SOLENOID. THE CAR CAN START WITHOUT THE STARTER SEQUENCE BEING INITIATED BY THE IGNITION KEY IN THE IGNITION LOCK.

Risk. THE UNINTENDED START OF A VEHICLE WITH A MANUALTRANSMISSION LEFT IN A DRIVE GEAR CAN RESULT IN A RUNAWAY VEHICLE.

Remedy. THE STARTER SOLENOID WIRING WILL BE SEPARATED FROM THE BATTERY FEED WIRE BY RELOCATING IT WITHIN THE BULKHEAD CONNECTOR ON AFFECTED VEHICLES.

Defect. ON 1987 THROUGH EARLY 1990 MODELS, BOTH FRONT BRAKE HOSES CAN WEAR DUE TO DIRECT CONTACT WITH THE WHEEL OPENING SPLASH SHIELDS. ON THE LATE 1990 THROUGH 1992 MODELS, PERIODIC RUBBING CONTACT OF THE LEFT FRONT BRAKE HOSE CAN OCCUR DUE TO MOVEMENT OF THE SPLASH SHIELD IN CERTAIN VEHICLE OPERATING CONDITIONS.

Risk. EITHER CONDITION CAN CAUSE LOSS OF FRONT BRAKE SYSTEMFUNCTIONS, RESULTING IN INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCES AND AN INCREASED RISK OFVEHICLE ACCIDENT.

Remedy. THE 1987 TO 1990 MODEL VEHICLES WILL HAVE BOTH SPLASH SHIELDS REPLACED AND BOTH FRONT BRAKE HOSES REPLACED AS NECESSARY.

I AM ON MILITARY ORDERS AND AM PLANNING ON SHIPPING MY JEEP WRANGLER TO MY NEXT DUTY STATION LOCATED IN LIMA PERU. I AM TOLD THAT PRIOR TO CUSTOMS SHIPPING THE VEHICLE IT HAS TO BE CLEAR OF ALL RECALLS. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP IN SAN DIEGO LOCATED AT 777 CAMINO DEL RIO S SAN DIEGO CA PHONE # 619-224-4151, IS TELLING ME THAT THEY WILL NO LONGER PERFORM RECALLS DUE TO THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE. I WAS WONDERING IF YOU COULD HELP WITH THIS SITUATION. REGARDS, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 1992 JEEP WRANGLER. AFTER CHECKING THE VIN, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD TWO OPEN RECALLS, INCLUDING NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 94V106000 (FUEL SYSTEM) AND 02V041000 (SERVICE BRAKES). AFTER NOTIFYING THE MANUFACTURER OF THE RECALLS, THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PARTS NEEDED TO COMPLETE THE RECALLS WERE NO LONGER BEING PRODUCED DUE TO THE AGE OF THE VEHICLE.

I HAVE PREVIOUSLY WRITTEN TO YOU UNDER REFERENCE #10429043, FOR A LEAKING GAS TANK. CHRYSLER HAS SINCE BLOWN ME OFF AND NOT ADDRESSED THIS RECALL OR SAFETY ISSUE. I NOW CARRY TWO FIRE EXTINGUISHERS IN THE CAR AWAITING THE IMPENDING EXPLOSION AND/OR FIRE. IN ADDITION, CHRYSLER TOOK MY CAR TO THEIR BAYSIDE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND CHARGED ME $217.75 TO INSTALL CLAMPS ON (I BELIEVE) THE GAS LINE. THAT LASTED ABOUT 6 MONTHS BEFORE THE LEAK STARTED AGAIN. [XXX] (NO LAST NAMES ARE GIVEN) FROM CHRYSLER ADVISED ME THAT THEY WOULD REFUND MY $217.75, WHICH WAS NEVER DONE. TODAY, I READ AN ARTICLE IN THE NY DAILY NEWS THAT CHRYSLER IS DODGING THE RECALL BY THE NHTSA ON GAS TANK PROBLEMS WITH MANY YEARS OF JEEPS, WHICH PROVES MY POINT MORE THAT THEY ARE DISTANCING THEMSELVES FROM THEIR RESPONSIBILITIES. I WOULD LIKE MY FOREVER LEAKING GAS TANK FINALLY FIXED AND I WOULD LIKE MY $217.75 REFUNDED; OR THEY CAN OFFER ME A BRAND NEW JEEP AS A REPLACEMENT, AS LONG AS THE GAS TANK DOESN'T LEAK. OTHERWISE, I WOULD LIKE TO BE FULLY INVOLVED IN ANY CLASS ACTION LAW SUITS AGAINST CHRYSLER. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6). *TR
