2007 Jeep Wrangler complaints

WHEN REFUELING THE VEHICLE, THE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF DOES NOT ENGAGE FROM THE VEHICLE ITSELF. FUEL (ABOUT A QUART) CONTINUES TO FLOW AND OUT AND ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. IT ALSO SPRAYS OUT AND ON THE PERSONNEL FUELING THE VEHICLE. THERE IS A TSB 14-001-11 FROM JEEP ABOUT THE ISSUE, AND I REQUEST THIS BE REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY. IT IS UNSAFE FOR THE OPERATOR TO HAVE FUEL SPRAYED ON THEM, AND HAVE FUEL SPILLAGE ON THE GROUND.

MY BUILD DATE ON MY JEEP SAHARA WAS 10/2006. IT STARTED SHOOTING GAS BACK OUT THE FILL PIPE APP. A YEAR AFTER I PURCHASED IT AND IT IS STILL DOING IT ALMOST EVERY TIME I FILL IT UP REGARDLESS OF THE GAS STATION OR THE SPEED THE PUMP IS PUMPING (SLOW MEDIUM OR FAST).IT HAS SHOT GAS OUT AS FAR AS A FOOT FROM THE JEEP, SPRAYING ON ME A COUPLE DIFFERENT TIMES. I HAVE BEEN INFORMED THAT SOME JEEPS AFTER A BUILD DATE FROM MARCH 2007 THRU 2008 ARE BEING REPAIRED BY THE DEALER. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHY THE EARLIER BUILD DATES ARE NOT SINCE IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM.

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK THE FUEL WILL OVERFLOW AS MUCH AS A QUART OUT OF THE FUEL INLET DOWN MY REAR FENDER, BUMPER, AND TO THE GROUND AFTER RELEASING THE GAS SPOUT HANDLE STOPPING THE FLOW OF FUEL.

WHEN FUELING AT AUTOMATIC CUT OFF GAS PUMPS FUEL WILL SPLASH BACK OUT OF FILLER NECK ON PERSONS , FENDER AND GROUND BEFORE TANK IS FULL AND PUMP CUTS OFF

GAS TANK OVERFILL. WHEN FUELING, AFTER THE GAS STATION PUMP CLICKS OFF, LARGE VOLUMES OF GASOLINE ARE EJECTED FROM THE GAS TANK ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, ONTO THE PUMP HANDLE ITSELF, AND ONTO THE PERSON DOING THE FUELING (ME). AGAIN, THIS HAPPENS *AFTER* THE GAS PUMP CLICKS ITSELF OFF.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING OVER A POT HOLE THE VEHICLE WOULD SHAKE VIOLENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS INSPECTED BY A DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE STEERING DAMPENER WAS LOOSE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 3 YEARS. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 10,500. UPDATED 03/24/11*LJ UPDATED 05/19/11

EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS TANK NO MATTER WHERE I AM SPILLAGE OCCURS AFTER THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF. JEEP WAS AROUND 2 YEARS OLD WHEN THIS STARTED HAPPENING.

GAS SURGES OUT OF GAS TANK SHORTLY AFTER THE AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF ON GAS PUMP ACTIVATES. SEVERAL CUPS OF GASOLINE POUR DOWN THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND PUDDLES ON THE GROUND. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL MY CAR AT EVERY GAS STATION. I NOW ONLY FILL MY CAR TO APPROXIMATELY 3/4 FULL. IT STARTED HAPPENING FALL OF 2010 WITH APPROXIMATELY 37,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 10-12 TIMES.

2007 JEEP WRANGLER. CONSUMER STATES THAT VEHICLE MADE A RATTLING NOISE WHILE ACCELERATING. SHE THOUGHT THAT HER VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE BEEN INCLUDED IN THE TRANSMISSION RECALL. *KB THE DEALER RECOMMENDED AN ENGINE BREAKDOWN AND INSPECTION. AFTER THE INSPECTION OF THE VEHICLE, THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED THAT BASED ON THE INSPECTION REPORT, THE REPAIR OF THE ENGINE WAS DENIED. THE CONSUMER STATED HE WAS ACCUSED OF NEGLIGENCE BY MEANS OF IMPROPER/INSUFFICIENT LUBRICATION WHICH RESULTED IN ENGINE FAILURE DUE TO LACK OF OIL, DESPITE PROVIDING SUFFICIENT EVIDENCE OF PROPER VEHICLE MAINTENANCE. *JB

THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM THAT I FACE WHEN I FILL THE VEHICLE UP AT ANY GAS STATION. WHILE FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH GAS, THE AUTO STOP CLICKS, AND IMMEDIATELY THE TANK STARTS SPILLING GAS. THE GAS SPILLS OUT AND RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND CREATING A PUDDLE. THIS PROBLEM ISN'T ATTRIBUTABLE TO TRYING TO "TOP OFF" THE TANK BECAUSE THE BY THE FIRST TIME THE AUTO STOP CLICKS, THE VEHICLE IS ALREADY POURING OUT GASOLINE. I HAVE SPOKEN TO MANY OTHER OWNERS REGARDING THIS PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE SAID THE SAME THING. I HAVE INVESTIGATED THROUGH NHTSA, AND THEY HAVE AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION INTO THIS MATTER (ACTION NUMBER : PE10032).

2007 JEEP WRANGLER. LETTER FROM CONGRESSMAN ISRAEL ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT REQUESTING ASSISTANCE IN RECOVERING FINANCIAL DAMAGES SHE INCURRED WHEN THE JEEP DEALERSHIP REFUSED TO HONOR THE WARRANTY (FULL DOCUMENT NOT IMAGED) *TGW THE CONSUMER STATED HER SON DROVE THROUGH SOME WATER ON A LOCAL ROAD, NOT AWARE THAT ANY PROBLEMS OCCURRED. WHEN HE ARRIVED HOME, A FRIENDS TRUCK WOULD NOT START, SO THE CONSUMERS SON GAVE THE FRIENDS VEHICLE A JUMP, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE JUMP, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOPPED RUNNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE CONSUMER WAS INFORMED, THE ENGINE HAD SEIZED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $7,000. THE CONSUMER STATED THE MANUFACTURER WOULD NOT HONOR THE WARRANTY. *JB

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING AT ANY SPEED, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD STALL INTERMITTENTLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THEY PERFORMED A DIAGNOSTIC TEST AND THE CONTACT WAS AWAITING THE RESULTS. THE CONTACT DID NOT INFORM THE MANUFACTURER NOR WAS THE VEHICLE REPAIRED. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 32,000.

WHEN REFUELING, A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF GASOLINE SPILLED OUT AFTER THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF. WITHIN A SECOND OR 2 OF THE PUMP SHUTTING OFF GAS THEN FLOWED OUT OF THE TANK FILLER TUBE. IT SPLASHED ALL OVER MY PANTS AND SHOES ALONG WITH THE CAR ITSELF.

APPROXIMATELY 1/4 TO 1/2 GALLON OF FUEL BACK FLOWS FORCEFULLY OUT OF FILLER NECK IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE RELEASE OF THE HANDLE WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. THIS HAPPENS BOTH WHEN THE HANDLE IS LOCKED DOWN IN FUELING POSITION AND AUTOMATICALLY CLICKS OFF AND WHEN I AM HOLDING THE HANDLE TO FILL THE TANK. AT NO TIME AM I ATTEMPTING TO OVERFILL THE TANK BEYOND THE SAFETY SHUT OFF.

WHEN FILLING WITH GAS SPEWS OUT. ON JANUARY 10TH FLEW OUT SO BAD, MY WINTER COAT, PANTS, GLOVES AND SHOES WERE RUINED. BEEN ONGOING PROBLEM. HAS REPAIR ORDERS FROM DEALERSHIP. IN ADDITION, THE HARD TOP HAS LEAKED SINCE DAY ONE AND NEVER BEEN REPAIRED. I AM NOT DRIVING VEHICLE SINCE THE AWFUL SPILLAGE ON JANUARY 10TH. I CANNOT AFFORD TO KEEP RUINING CLOTHES. IN ADDITION, CONCERNED IT CAN CAUSE FURTHER PROBLEM (IE, PERHAPS FIRE). ALWAYS IN ATTENDANCE WHILE FILLING. SPOKEN WITH SEVERAL OTHER JEEP OWNERS EXPERIENCING SAME PROBLEM. WHAT'S IT GOING TO TAKE FOR CHRYSLER TO CORRECT THIS DEFAULT, A DEATH, OR SEVERE INJURY. IF NOT WINTER TIME I FEEL I WOULD HAVE BEEN BURNED ON MY SKIN BY THE GASOLINE.

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING 70 MPH OR MORE OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD, THE FRONT END SHOOK VIOLENTLY AND THE CONTACT LOST CONTROL MOMENTARILY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE SHOCK ABSORBER AND THE TIRES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CONTACT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER WHO STATED THAT THEY WOULD SEND A SPECIALIST TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 74,000.

WHEN REFUELING THE VEHICLE GAS SPLASHES OUT OF THE TANK ONTO MYSELF, SIDE OF VEHICLE, AND GROUND. INCIDENT OCCURS WHEN THE TANK IS NEARLY FULL DURING THE REFUELING PROCESS.

WHEN REFUELING VEHICLE AT ANY FUEL STATION, FUEL NOZZLE DOES NOT SHUTOFF AND OVER SPILLS AT FUEL OPENING. IT OCCURS REGARDLESS OF TEMPERATURE, FUEL STATION, OR POSITIONING OF FUEL NOZZLE IN PORT.

ON MARCH 3, 2009, MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. WHEN I SLOWED TO MAKE A TURN, IT WOULD DING AT ME AND GO OFF AND THEN ON. WHEN I'M DROVE NORMALLY, AND USUALLY STRAIGHT, THE LIGHT JUST STAYED ON WITH NO DING. THROUGH RESEARCH, I'VE COME TO FIND THAT MY CLOCKSPRING WAS FAULTY AND MAY NOT DEPLOY MY AIRBAG IF I WERE TO GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. I HAD THIS FIXED THROUGH CHRYSLER. THEY SAID IT WAS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY. NOW, ON JAN. 15, 2011 WITH 103,769 MILES, THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME BACK ON AND DID THE SAME THING AS PREVIOUSLY. I WENT BACK TO THE SAME DEALER TO HAVE THEM CHECK IT OUT, ONLY FOR THEM TO TELL ME, AGAIN, IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY WARRANTY AND THAT I HAVE TO PAY TO HAVE IT REPLACED AGAIN. CONSIDERING THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, I WAS SURPRISED TO FIND I HAD TO PAY BOTH TIMES. IF I DIDN'T GET THIS FIXED, AND I GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT, MY AIRBAG MAY NOT DEPLOY. COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE.

2007 JEEP WRANGLER - EVERY TIME I FILL THE GAS TANK, SINCE ROUGHLY 10,000 MILES (NOW AT 63,000) THE AUTO SHUT OFF FEATURE OF GAS PUMPS WILL NOT SHUT OFF IN TIME. THIS CAUSES ROUGHLY 1/4 GALLON OF FUEL TO SPILL DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING SITUATION FOR A COUPLE YEARS. I CANNOT RELY ON THE AUTO-SHUT OFF OF THE PUMP WITH THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE FOR MANY JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS, SINCE THE NEW MODEL FROM 2007. MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS TO FIX UNDER WARRANTY WERE DENIED BY DEALERSHIPS. I AM FINALLY SCHEDULED TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK (A KNOWN FIX FOR THE ISSUE); BUT WILL BE PAYING FOR IT OUT OF POCKET, AS THE WARRANTY HAS SINCE EXPIRED. *TR

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP JK THAT HAS A SYSTEMIC PROBLEM OF HAVING FUEL SPILL OUT ON THE SIDE OF THE JEEP WHEN REFUELING. ALMOST INSTANTANEOUSLY, THE FUEL NOZZLE HANDLE SHUTS OFF AND ROUGHLY GALLON OF FUEL GUSHES OUT ON THE JEEP, BUMPER AND GROUND. THE ONLY WAY TO AVOID THIS PROBLEM IS TO FILL HALF WAY OR ATTEMPT TO LISTEN FOR FUEL COMING CLOSE TO THE TOP OF THE TANK.

FEELING IN FRONT END SUSPENSION OF A LOOSE COMPONENT. YOU CAN FEEL IT IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN THE VEHICLE ENGINE COMPARTMENT IS HOT. DEALERSHIP CLAIMS NO PROBLEM FOUND. STILL HAVING PROBLEM TODAY AND EVERYDAY. SPOKE TO OTHER JEEP OWNERS THEY THINK IT MAY BE IN THE STEERING SHAFT WHICH RUNS CLOSE TO THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD .

WHEN REFUELING, AS YOU NEAR FULL, THE PUMP WILL SHUT OFF, AND YOU WILL GET A BIG SPLASH BACK OF GASOLINE( ABOUT 2-5 CUPS). IT WILL SPLASH BACK ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND RUBBER FENDER AND REAR PLASTIC BUMPER. EVEN IF YOU TRY TO GUESS WHEN ITS NEARING FULL, IT STILL SEEMS TO BE SOME BACK SPLASH WHEN YOU SHUT IT OFF NEAR FULL

EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FILLED WITH GASOLINE, GASOLINE EXITS THE TANK THROUGH THE FILLER TUBE AND SPLASHES ON THE GROUND LEAVING A POTENTIAL FOR FIRE. THIS HAPPENS AT PUMPS AT DIFFERENT STATIONS IN DIFFERENT STATES, DIFFERENT AMOUNTS OF FUEL WITHIN BEFORE FUELING, AND REGARDLESS OF PLACEMENT OF THE FILLING HANDLE OF THE PUMP. THE VEHICLE WORKED AS IT SHOULD FOR THE FIRST 25K MILES AND WILL NOT FILL CORRECTLY SINCE THAT TIME WITHOUT LEAVING FUEL ON THE GROUND. THIS IS MY SECOND 2007 JEEP WRANGLER AND BOTH HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM AT APPROXIMATELY THE SAME MILEAGE. EACH VEHICLE WAS FILLED WITH THE CORRECT GASOLINE AS PRESCRIBED BY THE MANUAL AND ALL MAINTENANCE WAS DONE AT A 5 STAR JEEP DEALER ON BOTH. THERE APPEARS TO BE A DEFECT IN THE DESIGN OF THE GAS SYSTEM.

WHILE PULLING OUT IN 1ST GEAR WITH MANUAL TRANSMISSION THE JEEP JUMPS OUT OF OF 1ST GEAR.

WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK WITH FUEL, THE TANK DOES NOT PROPERLY VENT CAUSING FUEL TO SPURT OUT THE FILLER NECK AS IT APPROACHES FULL. THE GAS SPURTS ON THE VEHICLE'S 1/4 PANEL, ON THE PERSON FILLING THE VEHICLE AND ON THE GROUND. THIS HAS HAPPENED NOW DURING THE LAST SEVERAL FILL UPS. YOU MUST ALSO FILL SLOWLY OR THE GAS NOZZLE SHUTS OFF AS IF THE TANK IS FULL. I HAVE AN EXTENSIVE AUTOMOTIVE BACKGROUND AND IT IS OBVIOUS THAT THE TANK IS NOT PROPERLY VENTING. THIS OCCURS IN BOATS WHEN PERMANENT MOUNTED FUEL TANK VENT LINES BECOME BLOCKED OR COLLAPSE OVER TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN DRIVING 70 MPH OR MORE OVER A ROAD BUMP, THE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE WOULD SHAKE EXTREMELY HARD CAUSING THE CONTACT TO MOMENTARILY LOSE CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER AND THE DEALER REPLACED THE STEERING DAMPERS, TIRES AND THE BALL JOINTS BUT TO NO AVAIL. THE FAILURE PERSISTED AND THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED IN REGARDS TO THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER ADVISED THAT THEY WERE UNAWARE HOW TO REMEDY THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THE VEHICLE WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT FURTHER REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

WHILE FILLING FUEL TANK, AT ALMOST FULL OR FULL TANK, PUMP WILL SHUT OFF OR AUTO STOP, AND THEN FUEL WILL START TO SHOOT BACK OUT OF GAS FILLER AS ALMOST UNDER PRESSURE. SOMETIMES IT'S A FEW DROPS, BUT MORE OFTEN IT IS A LOT. IF YOUR NEARBY YOU WILL GET COVERED IN GAS, HAPPENS 4 OUT OF 5 TIMES WHILE FILLING UP NOW. I FEEL THIS COULD BE A SAFETY ISSUE AS MY JEEP AND ANYONE NEAR IT DURING FILL UP CAN END UP COVERED IN GAS

FUEL SPILL EVERY TIME IT IS FILLED. AS THE PUMP CLICKS OFF IT STARTS VENTING FUEL ON THE PERSON FILLING & ON THE GROUND.

DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH, AND THE FRONT END BEGAN SHAKING VIOLENTLY. I STARTED PULLING OVER AND WHEN I GOT DOWN TO 35 MPH, THE SHAKING STOPPED. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS WITHOUT INCIDENCE, AND THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN WITH INCREASING FREQUENCY. THIS WAS A STOCK JEEP BOUGHT NEW WITHOUT ANY AFTER-MARKET ALTERATIONS WITH ONLY 52K MILES. I TOOK IT INTO MIDAS, AND THEY SAID I NEEDED A NEW STEERING STABILIZER. THEY REPLACED IT, AND IT DID NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I TOOK IT TO ANOTHER MECHANIC, AND THEY REPLACED TRACKBAR, BUT IT DIDN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. I TOOK IT BACK TO MIDAS, AND THEY PUT ANOTHER NEW STABILIZER, STILL HAD THE PROBLEM WITH EVER-INCREASING FREQUENCY. I PUT NEW TIRES ON THE CAR, AND THE PROBLEM WENT AWAY FOR ABOUT 20K MILES. AT 73K, THE PROBLEM STARTED AGAIN. THIS TIME I TOOK IT THE JEEP DEALER. THEY KNEW WHAT THE "DEATH WOBBLE" WAS, AND THEY SAID THEY WOULD CHECK EVERYTHING. THEY REPORTED BACK THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE COMPONENTS, AND SUGGESTED I GET THE TIRES BALANCED AGAIN. I GOT THE TIRES BALANCED AND TOOK IT BACK A WEEK LATER TO THE DEALER AS THE PROBLEM WAS HAPPENING WITH MORE FREQUENCY, AND NOW WAS OCCURRING AT SPEEDS BETWEEN 45-55 MPH. I SUGGESTED A PARTICULAR PATCH OF HIGHWAY FOR A TEST DRIVE. THEY CALLED ME BACK AND SAID, "THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG." THEY THEN WORKED WITH CHRYSLER TO IDENTIFY AND "SOLVE" THE PROBLEM. THEY REPLACED THE TIRE RODS AND JOINTS. THREE DAYS LATER I EXPERIENCED THE PROBLEM

WITH CRUISE CONTROL ON, TRAVELING 65 MPH NORTH ON I-95, MELBOURNE, FLORIDA, THE WRANGLER STEERING WHEEL STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY ALMOST LOOSING MY GRIP. THE ENTIRE JEEP STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY AS IF THE WHEELS WERE COMING OFF. I HAD TO APPLY THE BRAKES, TURN ON EMERGENCY FLASHERS AND SLOWED DOWN TO ABOUT 25 MPH. THE WRANGLER EVENED OUT AFTER SLOWING DOWN TO 25MPH ON I-95. THE STEERING WHEEL, BEING ALMOST UNCONTROLLABLE, COULD HAVE CAUSED LIVES LOST. PLEASE DON'T WAIT FOR THAT TO HAPPEN. SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE NOW. THIS IS A STOCK JEEP. THANK YOU.

WHILE I WAS FILLING UP WITH GAS THE NOZZLE KICKED OFF AND FUEL OVERFLOWED ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY JEEP AND THE GROUND. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE STATIONS PUMP FOR THE ISSUE. A WEEK LATER I WAS AT ANOTHER GAS STATION FILLING UP WITH GAS AND IT DID IT AGAIN ONLY THIS TIME GAS SPILLED ALL OVER MY JEEP, PANTS AND SHOES. EVERY SINCE THE FIRST EPISODE IT HAD HAPPENED EVERY TIME I FILL UP. I HAVE TRIED TO HOLD THE NOZZLE AND PUMP IT SLOWLY, BUT IT STILL HAPPENS. IT IS BEYOND FRUSTRATING TO HAVE TO WASH THE SIDE OF MY JEEP OFF EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS. THIS COULD BE A VERY BIG ISSUE. I HAD THE GAS SPILL ALL OVER MY JEANS AND SHOES MAKING THEM BOTH FLAMMABLE. ALSO, IT COULD HAVE SPLASHED INTO MY EYES. I THINK JEEP NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT.
