2006 Jeep Wrangler complaints

FOR ME, THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT RESULTED IN A CRASH OR INJURY. HOWEVER IT COULD LEAD TO THE ABOVE IF NOT RESOLVED BY THE MANUFACTURE. PROBLEM IS, WHEN DRIVING MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER AND A BUMP IS ENCOUNTERED, SUCH AS A POT HOLE, A MAN HOLE COVER, EXPANSION JOINTS ETC. THE FRONT WHEELS GO IN TO A VERY SEVERE LEFT TO RIGHT OSCILLATION. TO RECOVER FROM THIS ONE MUST COME TO ALMOST A COMPLETE STOP. A LITTLE HARD TO DO AT 60MPH IN THE MIDDLE OF THE FREEWAY. CHRYSLER SAYS THAT THE FIX IS A NEW STEERING DAMPER, AT THE OWNER'S EXPENSE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AMONG THE JEEP COMMUNITY, CALLED "THE DEATH WOBBLE".I BELIEVE THIS IS TOO MUCH OF A SAFETY ISSUE FOR THE MANUFACTURE TO RESOLVE AT THEIR EXPENSE VIA A RECALL. SOMEONE IS GOING TO GET KILLED. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON AND EVERYTIME I FILL UP AT THE GAS STATION THE FUEL OVERFLOWS AND COMES BACK OUT ONTO THE JEEP. I DON'T KNOW WHAT THE PROBLEM IS BUT ITS A COMMON OCCURRENCE THERE SHOULD BE A TSB ISSUED TO RESOLVE THE PROBLEM. *TR

CAR HAS A BAD CLUNKING NOISE IN THE STEERING BOX. ONLY HAS 15000 ON THE VEHICLE, MANY OTHER PEOPLE I HAVE TALKED TO ON JEEPFORUM.COM HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. WHEN TURNING THE WHEEL FROM SIDE TO SIDE YOU HEAR A CONSTANT CLUNKING NOISE FROM THE FRONT END, ALWAYS BEING TRACED BACK TO THE STEERING BOX. ALL FRONT END COMPONENTS ARE IN PERFECT SHAPE, AS TOLD BY A MECHANIC. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ADDING GASOLINE TO THE FUEL TANK IT WOULD SPEW OUT OF THE TANK, SPLASH ON THE CONTACT AND THEN ON THE GROUND. THE CONTACT FEARED THAT A FIRE COULD START DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THIS WAS A KNOWN ISSUE AND NUMEROUS OWNERS WITH THE SAME YEAR, MAKE AND MODEL HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.

WHILE FILLING WITH GAS THE FUEL OVERFILLS AND SPILLS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON AND ON THE GROUND. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL MY TANK. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT PARKED THE VEHICLE AND AS HE ATTEMPTED TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF, THE IGNITION SWITCH WOULD NOT RESPOND. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH WAS REMOVED BY HIS PERSONAL MECHANIC IN ORDER TO SHUT THE VEHICLE OFF. THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE IGNITION SWITCH COULD NOT BE REPLACED AS ONE UNIT BUT THE ENTIRE STEERING COLUMN WOULD NEED REPLACING. THE MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT PROVIDE ANY ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 90, 0000. UPDATED 02/7/11

GAS TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME I FILL UP AT THE PUMP. *TR

DRIVING A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED AT SPEEDS FROM 45-55 MPH CAUSES DEATH WOBBLE WHERE THE VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY AND STEERING IS UNABLE TO BE CONTROLLED. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT; YET, IF YOU GOOGLE THE PROBLEM IT IS SERIOUS AND RAMPANT. HAPPENS EVERY TIME THAT SPEEDS REACH 45-55 MPH. UPDATED IVOQ 10/22/10 *TR

FUEL OVERFLOW EVERYTIME I FILL UP, PUMPS WILL NOT SHUT OFF UNTIL FUEL IS SPILLING OUT FILLER NECK, HAPPENS AT EVERY GAS STATION I HAVE TRIED. HAPPENS AT EVERY FILL UP. *TR

GAS TANK OVERFLOWS EVERTIME I FILL UP REGARDLESS OF LOCATION. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON. WHENEVER I FILL UP, IT OVERFLO'S. I HAVE NO BLOCKAGE OF KINKS IN THE TUBING . IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A WHILE. *TR

2006 JEEP WRANGLER -- BOUGHT USED WITH LESS THAN 30K MILES ON IT. WOBBLE AT ABOUT 55MPH, INTERMITTENTLY. MINE WAS SOLVED BY REPLACING THE STABILIZER BAR, HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH TIRES, ALTHOUGH THE FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, I THOUGHT I HAD BLOWN A TIRE. GAS TANK FILLING -- SAME PROBLEM, THE PUMP DOESN'T SHUT OFF UNLESS YOU PUMP THE GAS SLOWLY. FIRST FEW TIMES, SPEWED GAS ALL OVER THE JEEP, MYSELF AND THE PAVEMENT. NOW I LISTEN AS THE TANK FILLS AND SLOW THE FILL AS I KNOW IT'S STARTING TOWARDS FULL. WITH THE SLOWING, THE PUMP DOES SHUT OFF BUT IT'S A GOOD IDEA TO HAVE SOME IDEA HOW MUCH GAS THE TANK WILL TAKE AT CERTAIN FUEL READINGS. *TR

I BOUGHT A USED 2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. I HAVE TAKEN THIS CAR TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE FOUR TIMES FOR EXCESSIVE SHAKING WHEN DRIVING AT SPEEDS AROUND 50 MPH. THE ENTIRE VEHICLE SHAKES UNTIL I EITHER SPEED UP OR SLOW DOWN. THERE IS NO WAY TO CONTROL THE JEEP WHILE IT IS SHAKING! I HAVE HAD ALL THE "POSSIBLE CAUSES" CHECKED, REPLACED OR BALANCED INCLUDING: TIRES, FRONT END ALIGNMENT, SHOCKS, STABILIZER, BRAKES, ROTORS (TWICE). THE SHAKING MAY GO AWAY FOR A SHORT TIME BUT THEN RETURNS. (THIS WRANGLER WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE BRAKE RECALL EARLIER THIS YEAR.) *TR

RIGHT WHEN THE GAS PUMP AUTOMATICALLY STOPS PUMPING GAS, MY TANK WILL SPEW FUEL OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE. *TR

WHEN FUELING MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED THE FUEL SPILLS OUT THE TOP PRIOR TO SHUTOFF. *TR

JUST PURCHASED A USED 06 JEEP WRANGLER IN PERFECT CONDITION WITH 16000+ MILES, TOOK IT TO FILL IT UP AND GAS RAN OUT ON MY FIRST FILL UP. NOW I HAVE TO ESTIMATE HOW MUCH GAS I NEED AND WHEN I GET THE THAT AMOUNT, I SLOWLY FILL THE TANK TO FULL. (8/100 *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP AT THE GAS STATION THE PUMP WILL OVERFLOW IF I'M FILLING UP THE TANK. THE PUMP DOESN'T STOP UNLESS I PULL THE NOZZLE OUT AT WHICH POINT GAS WILL SPILL ALL OVER THE REAR FLARE AND PAINT. IT HAPPENS AT ALL GAS STATIONS. THIS IS IN MY OPINION A VERY SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. IT APPEARS CHRYSLER IS GOING TO WAIT FOR AN IGNITION SOURCE TO BE AROUND FOR SOMEONE TO GET SERIOUSLY INJURED OR DIE BEFORE THEY RESOLVE THIS. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS THE GAS WILL OVERFLOW FROM THE FILL HOLE. I WOULD ESTIMATE ABOUT 2 CUPS OF GAS SPILLS BEFORE THE GAS SHUTS OFF. IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE AND HORRIBLE FOR THE ENVIRONMENT. *TR

EVERYTIME I FILL MY GAS TANK UP, GAS EXPLODES OUT OF THE FILLER. IF THIS ISN'T A SAFETY ISSUE THAN I DON'T KNOW WHAT IS! *TR

2006 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT BRAKE ROTORS: WARPED AT 6K MILES, TURNED BY DEALER, 8K MILES, ROTORS REPLACED, 15K ROTORS TURNED BY INDEPENDENT SHOP, 20K ROTORS REPLACED - AND DIAGNOSTICS SHOP FOUND THAT THE PROPORTIONAL VALVE WAS NOT SET PROPERLY, LEAVING FRONT BRAKES TO DO 75 PERCENT OF STOPPING, CAUSING EXCESSIVE HEAT/WARP. THIS PROBLEM CAUSED VIOLENT SHAKING OF JEEP DURING SLOW DOWN - I NEARLY LOST CONTROL ON MANY OCCASIONS - VERY VERY DANGEROUS. NOW I'M HAVING TROUBLE WITH THE DEATH WOBBLE - STEERING IS DANGEROUS AT 52 MPH LOSS OF CONTROL. THIS VEHICLE HAS 25,700 MILES ON IT. DON'T BUY JEEP, DON'T BUY DANGEROUS. *TR

2006 JEEP WRANGLER. CONSUMER STATES CLUTCH PEDAL SNAPPED. THE CONSUMER STATED WHEN HE ATTEMPTED TO START THE VEHICLE, THE CLUTCH SNAPPED AND DANGLED. THE CLUTCH HYDRAULIC UNIT ACTUATING ROD HAD SNAPPED IN TWO. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER. THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER CONTACTED HIM AND STATED THE RECALL WAS PERFORMED IN AUGUST 2006. THE CONSUMER STATED HE FORGOT THE RECALL HAD ALREADY BEEN PERFORMED. BUT APPARENTLY, THE CLUTCH HYDRAULIC UNIT THAT WAS INSTALLED UNDER THE RECALL IS ALSO DEFECTIVE. *JB

1. FUELING THE VEHICLE. 2. WHEN FUELLING MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED, GASOLINE WILL ABRUPTLY BACKFLOW OUT OF THE FILLER NECK AND SPRAY ALL OVER AS THE TANK GETS CLOSE TO BEING FULL. IT HAPPENS SO QUICKLY AND VIOLENTLY THAT THE AUTO SHUTOFF ON THE GAS HOSE DOES NOT STOP IT. THIS WILL HAPPEN ANY TIME I ATTEMPT TO FILL THE TANK TO FULL. CONSEQUENCES: AS A RESULT, I HAVE HAD GASOLINE SPRAYED ALL OVER ME NUMEROUS TIMES INCLUDING GETTING IT IN MY EYES. ALSO, GASOLINE GETS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND LEAVES PUDDLES OF GAS ON THE GROUND CREATING A FIRE HAZARD. I MUST STOP FUELLING BEFORE THE TANK IS FULL TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING. OVERALL THIS IS A LIFE SAFETY HAZARD AND I FEEL IT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. *TR

MY CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR ON MY 2006 JEEP UNLIMITED LJ HAS CAUSED MY JEEP CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO COME ON AND TO HAVE MISFIRE CODES, TRANSMISSION FAILURE CODES, AND EMISSION SENSOR CODES, CAUSING MY JEEP TO RUN ROUGH AND MAY CAUSE FURTHER DAMAGE TO MY MOTOR IF THE PROBLEM IS NOT FIXED. THE CODES PRODUCED, DOES NOT POINT OUT MY THAT MY CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR IS THE PROBLEM BUT MASKS THE PROBLEM WITH OTHER SENSOR CODES.THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A WHILE AND THE DEALERSHIP COULDN'T EVEN TELL ME WHAT WAS WRONG WITH MY JEEP AND SAID THEY WOULD HAVE TO JUST START WITH ONE THING AND KEEP REPLACING PARTS TILL THE PROBLEM GOES AWAY. I AM STILL TRYING TO GET THE PROBLEM FIXED AND I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT SCHEDULED WITH A REPUTABLE JEEP MECHANIC AT A SPECIALTY JEEP SHOP TO TRY AND FIX THE PROBLEM THIS WEDNESDAY 8/4/2010. HOPEFULLY MY ENGINE HAS NOT BEEN DAMAGED DUE TO THIS PROBLEM THAT CHRYSLER IS FULLY AWARE OF! MY MILEAGE IS IN THE 76,000 MILE RANGE AND I DO NOT KNOW IF MY DRIVETRAIN WARRANTY COVERS THIS. *TR

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK ON MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER X, THE TANK OVERFLOWS A FEW CUPS OF GASOLINE OUT OF THE FILLER OPENING AFTER THE PUMP HANDLE SHUTS OFF. THIS RESULTS IN GASOLINE POURING ONTO THE PAVEMENT AND DOWN THE SIDE OF MY JEEP - AND ALSO SOMETIMES ONTO MY FEET! THIS IS NOW A DOCUMENTED PROBLEM WITH MANY JEEPS, AND CHRYSLER SHOULD BE REQUIRED TO RECALL AND FIX THIS PROBLEM IMMEDIATELY! I WOULD NOT BE SURPRISED IF GAS STATION OWNERS START BANNING JEEPS FROM FILLING UP, SINCE THE JEEPS ARE CAUSING GASOLINE TO BE SPILLED ONTO GAS STATION PAVEMENT ON A REGULAR BASIS! *TR

SEVERE VIBRATION IN FRONT WHEELS/STEERING AT 55 MPH. CEASES AS SPEED IS INCREASED PAST 60 MPH OR DECREASED.. TIRE BALANCE AND ALIGNMENT HAVE NO EFFECT. VEHICLE IS TOTALLY STOCK AND HAS APROX. 26,000 MILES. INTERNET RESEARCH INDICATES THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM. VIBRATION IS SEVERE ENOUGH TO ALMOST CAUSE LOSS OF CONTROL. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM FOR THE LAST YEAR. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL THE FUEL TANK ON MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER IT SPLASHES FUEL OUT UPON REACHING FULL. THIS IS NOT JUST A LITTLE FUEL, BUT A LOT. IT SURGES OUT ALL DOWN THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND. I'VE CONTACTED MY DEALER SEVERAL TIMES ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THEY SAY IT'S A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH MY TYPE OF VEHICLE AND THERE CURRENTLY IS NO FIX. THEY SUGGEST NOT FILLING THE TANK COMPLETELY FULL. THIS IS HARD TO ACCOMPLISH BECAUSE THERE IS NO WAY TO TELL WHEN THE TANK IS GETTING FULL. THIS IS A DANGEROUS AND ENVIRONMENTALLY UNFRIENDLY PROBLEM THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED! *TR

VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO WORK, APPROX. 15 MILES, AND PARKED. WHEN ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE TO GO TO LUNCH, THE CLUTCH PEDAL SNAPPED AND DANGLED. THE CLUTCH HYDRAULIC UNIT ACTUATING ROD HAD SNAPPED IN TWO. THE VEHICLE HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIRS. THE REPLACEMENT PART HAVE TO BE ORDERED AND THE VEHICLE WILL NOT BE REPAIRED UNTIL NEXT WEEK. I HAVE REQUESTED THE DEALER TO KEEP THE OLD PART FOR ME. IF THIS HAD OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING IN THE MORNING OR LUNCH TIME TRAFFIC I HAVE NO DOUBT IT WOULD HAVE CAUSED A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. *TR

I OWN A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER, I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING A VIOLENT SHAKE OR ALSO KNOWN AS THE DEATH WOBBLE SINCE 2009. LATELY, IT HAS GOTTEN FAR WORSE. I CONTACTED THE DEALER AT THE FIRST SIGNS OF THE PROBLEM, THEY TOLD ME THAT IT WAS THE TIRES AND THAT THEY WOULD REIMBURSE ME. I CALLED BACK SEVERAL TIMES AFTER I GOT THE TIRES, BUT THE MANAGER ALWAYS HAD AN EXCUSE. SO, NO I DID NOT GET REIMBURSED. THE TIRES FIXED THE PROBLEM FOR A SHORT TIME, BUT NOW IT'S BACK AND WORSE THAN EVER. IT STARTS THE DEATH WOBBLE AT AROUND 55MPH, IT IS SO VIOLENT THAT IT TAKES EVERYTHING I HAVE JUST TO KEEP CONTROL. THE ONLY WAY THAT I CAN GET IT TO STOP IS TO EITHER SPEED UP TO 60 OR COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS IS A SERIOUS PROBLEM AND NEEDS IMMEDIATE ATTENTION FROM NHTSA BEFORE A DEATH OCCURS DUE TO THIS PROBLEM. *TR

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 70 MPH THE 2006 JEEP WRANGLER SUDDENLY LOST POWER AND DECELERATED VERY QUICKLY. THE ENGINE WAS STILL RUNNING. THE RPMS DROPPED TO AROUND 1500, PRESSING THE GAS PEDAL DID NOTHING TO INCREASE THE RPMS. I HAD TO PULL OVER OUT OF TRAFFIC. THIS HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES BEFORE I COULD GET IT TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP IN JULY 2009. JEEP REPLACED ALL THE ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS TO INCLUDE THE MAIN COMPUTER AT THE TIME. THEY SAID THAT THEY FOUND A SENSOR THAT WAS BAD. THE REPAIRS LASTED FOR ABOUT 10 MONTH AND THEN IT DID IT AGAIN IN MAY OF 2010. JEEP HAD THE VEHICLE FOR 7 WEEKS TRYING BEFORE THEY GOT IT REPAIRED THE FIRST TIME. THE LAST TIME IT TOOK 2 WEEKS TO REPAIR IT. *TR

2006 JEEP WRANGLER. THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS EVERYTIME I FILL THE TANK. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR ABOUT 6 MONTHS NOW AND HAPPENS EVERYTIME AT EVERY PUMP. *TR

MY JEEP DOES NOT STOP THE PUMP BEFORE IT IS CLOSE TO BEING FULL CAUSING THE GAS TO OVERFLOW FROM MY TANK AND LEAK OUT ALL OVER THE CAR, IT IS A COMMON DEFECT AMONG CHRYSLERS. *TR

DURING REFUELING - THE TANK FILLS UP FINE EXCEPT FOR THE "FINAL" MOMENT. AT THE TIME A NORMAL SYSTEM REGISTERS "FULL" THE REFUELING HANDLE WILL CLICK "OFF" AND STOP THE FUEL FLOW INTO THE FILLER NECK. IN MY INSTANCE, THE REFUELING HANDLE DOES CLICK/SHUT OFF, BUT ABOUT A PINT OF FUEL SPITS OUT ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND. I HAVE ATTEMPTED MANY DIFFERENT METHODS, I.E. REPOSITIONING THE REFUELING HANDLE, FILLING FAST OR SLOW, DIFFERENT GRADES OF FUEL, DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND EVEN DIFFERENT STATIONS IN DIFFERENT STATES. THE ONLY THING THAT SEEMED TO HELP WAS USING A FUEL ADDITIVE EVERY 2ND FILL UP, BUT THE PROBLEM ALWAYS RESURFACES. THROUGH RESEARCH, THE GENERAL PUBLIC SEEMS TO SUSPECT A FAULTY "ROLL OVER VALVE" WHICH CAN ONLY BE REPLACED BY REPLACING THE FUEL TANK. *TR

FUEL SPILLS WHILE FILLING UP JEEP WRANGLER. AFTER PUMPING FUEL, FUEL DUMPS OUT OF TANK INLET AND SPILLS ON GROUND. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK THE PUMP DOESN'T SHUT OFF AND IT OVERFILLS THE TANK CAUSING FUEL TO SPILL EVERYWHERE. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHICH PUMP OR GAS STATION I USE IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME. THE SOLUTION IS UNKNOWN TO FIX THE PROBLEM. *TR

1. I GET LOW ON FUEL AND NEED TO REFUEL MY WRANGLER. 2. GAS OVERFLOWS THE TANK FILLER TUBE AND SPILLS FUEL ALL OVER THE BACK OF THE VEHICLE, TIRES, GROUND, AND DEPENDING WHERE I AM STANDING, ME. IT OCCURS JUST ABOUT EVERY TIME I FILL ME VEHICLE UP, AT MANY DIFFERENT STATIONS WITH DIFFERENT NOZZLE TYPES. 3. THERE HAS BEEN NOTHING DONE TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. *TR

I OWN A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER AND BESIDES EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR WHICH THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP CANNOT SEEM TO FIX, MY LATEST PROBLEM IS WITH THE IGNITION SYSTEM . ORIGINALLY I THOUGHT IT WAS THE IGNITION SWITCH BUT WHEN I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO GET A NEW ONE THE PARTS SALESMAN TOLD ME THAT MY PROBLEM WASN'T WITH THE SWITCH (AND HE WAS RIGHT) THE PROBLEM IS A PIECE OF PLASTIC BETWEEN THE SWITCH AND THE TUMBLER AND THAT THE ONLY WAY TO GET THE PLASTIC PIECE WAS TO BUY THE COMPLETE STEERING COLUMN. IN THAT PHONE CALL HE ALSO INFORMED ME THAT HE KNEW THIS DUE TO THE FACT THEY HAVE HAD SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THE WRANGLERS 1997 ON UP AND THE FACTORY HASN'T DONE ANYTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM AND THE ONLY WAY TO GET THIS LITTLE 50 CENT PIECE WAS TO BUY A $500.00 STEERING COLUMN. I FEEL THIS SHOULD BE A RECALLED ITEM DUE TO THE FACT THEY KNOW IT IS A PROBLEM AND I AM AFRAID THAT WHILE I'M DRIVING THE VEHICLE COULD SHUT DOWN SO I AM NOT DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY SO IF IT DOES SHUT DOWN I WONT HAVE AN UNCONTROLLABLE VEHICLE AT HIGH SPEED. *TR

I PURCHASED AN '06 JEEP WRANGLER SE, COMPLETELY STOCK. FROM THE FIRST TIME I REFUELED TO THIS DAY IF I LET IT FILL UP ALL THE WAY GAS COMES POURING OUT AFTER THE PUMP CLICKS OFF. I HAVE TRIED OTHER STATIONS, ITS THE JEEP'S FAULT. SINCE THEN I HAVE SEARCH FORUMS WITH SIMILAR COMPLAINTS WITH NO REAL ANSWERS. MOST HAVE THE DEALERSHIP REINSTALL A NEW GAS TANK. I GAVE OUT ENOUGH MONEY FOR THE WRANGLER, I WASN'T PLANNING ON SHELLING OUT MORE THIS SOON. *TR

MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER STARTED BLOWING BACK GAS OUT OF THE TANK EVERYTIME I FILL IT UP. I HAVE TRIED TO BE ULTRA CAREFUL TO STOP IT WHEN IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S GETTING FULL, BUT EVEN THEN WITHIN A COUPLE OF SECONDS IT STILL OVERFLOWS OUT ONTO THE VEHICLE, THE GROUND AND ME. IT HAS BEEN ON GOING SINCE MY JEEP HIT AROUND 35,000 MILES. *TR

ON 2006 JEEP WRANGLER THE FUEL OVERFLOWS AT EVERY FUEL UP. FUEL SPRAYS OUT AFTER THE NOZZLE AUTO SHUT OFF CLICKS OFF, APPROX 1-2 SECONDS. THIS IS CLEARLY A DEFECT IN DESIGN OF THE TANKS INTERNAL FLAPPER VALVE. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. ON JUNE 8, 2010 WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY AND THE BRAKES BEGAN TO MALFUNCTION CAUSING THE CONTACT TO CRASH INTO A DITCH. HE MANAGED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE OUT OF THE DITCH SINCE THE VEHICLE WAS EQUIPPED WITH FOUR WHEEL DRIVE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT HE WAS FAMILIAR WITH THE 2006 CHRYSLER BRAKE RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO THE DEALER AND AN APPOINTMENT WAS SCHEDULED ON THE DAY THAT THE COMPLAINT WAS FILED. THE DEALER TOLD HIM THAT THEY WOULD INSPECT THE BRAKES, ROTORS, CALIPERS, AND REPLACE ANY PARTS AND IF THERE WAS AN EXISTING RECALL THAT CHRYSLER WOULD REIMBURSE HIM FOR THE PARTS; HOWEVER, THEY HAVE NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF A BRAKE RECALL. THE CHRYSLER MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. THE VIN WAS REJECTED FROM THE SYSTEM. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE 55,700.

GAS TANK OVERFILLS AND SPILLS ON GROUND AT FILL UP. *TR

AFTER FILLING GAS TANK, PRESSURE BUILT UP SPRAYS AT LEAST A CUP OF GAS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. HAPPENS EVERY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED TO THE AUTOMATIC STOP POINT AT GAS STATIONS. SPRAYS PERSON OPERATING GAS PUMP, POURS GAS DOWN REAR FENDER. TO CORRECT FAILURE I HAVE STOPPED FILLING MY TANK, ONLY BUYING GAS IN SMALLER INCREMENTS. *TR

GAS PUMPS DO NOT PROPERLY SHUT OFF AND OVERFLOW OF FUEL IS SPILLED ONTO THE GROUND. I HAVE READ THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WITH THE GAS TANK DESIGN OF MANY DIFFERENT TYPES OF JEEP WRANGLERS BUT CHRYSLER REFUSES TO ACKNOWLEDGE THE PROBLEM. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE TRAVELING AT SPEEDS OF 50 MPH, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO VIBRATE ABNORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED AND THERE WERE NO PRIOR WARNINGS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 36,000. UPDATED 07/26/10. *LJ THE CONSUMER TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER. UPON INSPECTION, THEY STATED THE BELTS IN THE TIRES HAD SEPARATED, THE FRONT ROTORS WERE WARPED AND THE STEERING DAMPENER FAILED. UPDATED 08/06/10*JB UPDATED 11/19/10. *LJ UPDATED 11/24/10

2006 JEEP WRANGLER- AT 65,000 MILES DEVELOPED WHAT IS KNOWN AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE". I HAVE SPENT OVER $1500.00 TRYING TO CORRECT THIS PROBLEM AND STILL AT 50- 65 MILES PER HOUR DEVELOPS A VIOLENT SHAKE THAT FELLS AS THOUGH THE FRONT WHEEL WILL FLY OFF THE VEHICLE- THE ONLY THING TO DO IS SLOW DOWN. NOW DUE TO THIS PROBLEM OTHER PARTS OF THIS VEHICLE ARE BREAKING INCLUDING THE FRONT HOOD LATCH THAT ALLOWS THE HOOD TO FLY UP INTO THE WINDSHIELD. I CAN NOT BELIEVE THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL OF THIS DANGEROUS AND POTENTIALLY DEADLY VEHICLE. *TR

WHILE PUTTING GAS IN MY '06 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT, THE TANK OVER FILLED, CAUSING GAS TO COME OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME A FEW TIMES WITH IN THE PAST COUPLE OF WEEKS. INCIDENT HAS OCCURRED AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS AND WHILE USING OLDER AND NEWER PUMPS. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER X, THERE IS A FAULT FROM THE FACTORY GAS TANK, WHICH WHEN I FILL MY TANK WITH FUEL IT DOES NOT ALLOW THE PUMP TO AUTO SHUT OFF, AND SPEWS A DECENT AMOUNT OF GAS FROM THE VEHICLE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN EVER I FILL UP. I HAVE NOT FOUND A WAY TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE, AND THE ONLY THING THAT SEEMS TO BE HAPPENING TO FIX IT, IS REPLACING THE TANK WITH AN OE STYLE TANK THAT HAS THE SAME FAULTY VALVE INSIDE IT. *TR

THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS AT THE PUMP, EVERY TIME THAT I FILL UP THE TANK. THIS STARTED ABOUT A YEAR AGO AND IS NOT RELATED TO ANYONE GAS STATION. *TR

MY 2006 RUBICON HAS A PROBLEM WITH GAS OVERFLOWING EVERY TIME I FILL UP. STARTING TO BECOME A BIG PROBLEM. WASTE OF MONEY AND NOT HELPING THE ENVIRONMENT. ISSUE NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND RESOLVED,. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL THE GAS TANK ON MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER THE FUEL OVERFLOWS AND CAUSES A SMALL SPILL. *TR
