2007 Jeep Wrangler complaints

VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE WHILE SITTING IN DRIVEWAY IN FRONT OF HOME 30 MINUTES AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE. TOTAL LOSS.

FOR THE SECOND TIME A BRAKE LINE HAS BROKEN CAUSING BRAKE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. I CALLED JEEP AND WAS TOLD THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL AND THE DEALERSHIP'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT TAKES NO RESPONSIBILITY. MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AROUND A CIRCLE AT A MAJOR HIGHWAY INTERSECTION WHEN THE BRAKES FAILED. I GUESS A CERTAIN NUMBER OF PEOPLE MUST DIE BEFORE A RECALL IS MADE. HAVE HAD AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH BLINKERS SINCE I OWNED THE CAR. WHEN TURNING OFF BLINKER WHEN CHANGING LANES, THE OPPOSITE BLINKER COMES ON. TRYING TO TURN THAT SIDE OFF, THEN MAKES THE OTHER SIDE COME BACK ON. IT TAKES GOING BACK AND FORTH FOR A FEW TIMES BEFORE IT WILL JUST TURN OFF.

NO TURN SIGNALS, NO PARKING LIGHTS, NO HORN, DOORS DO NOT UNLOCK/ LOCK, CRANKS FOR SEVERAL SECONDS BEFORE STARTING OR DOES NOT START, HAZARD INDICATORS TURN ON WITHOUT PROMPTING. THESE ISSUES MAKE FOR EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DRIVING. DEALER SAID I NEED A TIPM REPLACEMENT. THERE WAS A COMPLETED RECALL ON THE SOFTWARE FOR THE TIPM, BUT NOW THE ENTIRE COMPONENT IS FAULTY AND THE REPAIRS ARE OVER $1000.00

I HAVE BROUGHT AND CALLED THE DEALER ABOUT THE PART THEY NEED TO REPAIR THE AIR BAG CLOCK SPRING IN MY JEEP. THEY CONTINUALLY TELL ME THAT FIAT-CHRYSLER HAS NOT RELEASED THE PART. THIS RECALL HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS NOW AND THEY HAVE NOT REPAIRED IT YET ! THIS IS MY SECOND REQUEST FOR HELP THE SRS SYSTEM LIGHT STARTS TO FLASH AT TIMES.

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. RECENTLY IT HAS STARTED TO OCCASIONALLY AND VIOLENTLY POP OUT OF FIRST GEAR. THE ISSUE ONLY HAPPENS FROM A STANDSTILL INTO A ROLLING START SUCH AS AT A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE AS I COULD EASILY BE REAR ENDED IN BUSY TRAFFIC. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ IN THE DIFFERENT WRANGLER FORUMS, THERE HAVE BEEN MANY CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THERE IS A DETAILED TSB REGARDING THIS REPAIR. I KNOW STARTING IN 2008, THE JEEPS CAME WITH A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON THE POWERTRAIN. I'M INQUIRING TODAY AS TO WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUED FOR THOSE OF US WITH THE '07. IT'S THE SAME MOTOR, SAME TRANSMISSION AS THE 08-2010 MODELS. I ONLY HAVE 124K MILES ON IT, AND HAVE OWNED THE JEEP FOR 10 YEARS. THE TSB RELATED INVOLVES REPLACING FIRST GEAR, AND THE 1/2 SYNCHROS. I HAVE ALREADY REACHED OUT TO JEEP/FCA AND WAS REFERRED BACK TO JUST SEEK REPAIR. I PERSONALLY BELIEVE THAT JEEP/CHRYSLER SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS KNOWN PROBLEM/ COMMON DEFECT IN ENGINEERING, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE MODEL YEAR JK AFTER '07 CAME WITH THE LIFETIME POWER TRAIN WARRANTY.

THE THROTTLE CONTROL RANDOMLY GOES OUT, WHILE IT IS EASY TO RESET THE SENSOR, SO THE VEHICLE REMAINS DRIVEABLE, IT IS DANGEROUS TO BE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY OR CROSSING THE HIGHWAY WITH CHILDREN IN THE CAR AND THE CAR GOES INTO LIMP MODE. I WAS TURNING ON THE HIGHWAY WHERE PEOPLE ARE DOING 60MPH AND SUDDENLY MID TURN THE CAR GOES INTO LIMP MODE AND DOESN'T WANT TO MOVE WHILE CARS COME SPEEDING AT YOU.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 65 MPH OVER A BUMP IN THE ROAD, THE WHEELS BEGAN TO WOBBLE AND SHAKE. THE CONTACT SEARCHED ONLINE AND DISCOVERED AN UNKNOWN RECALL THAT REFERENCED THE "DEATH WOBBLE." THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO HALL CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM VIRGINIA BEACH (3152 VIRGINIA BEACH BLVD, VIRGINIA BEACH, VA 23452, 877-475-0721) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO RECALL ASSOCIATED WITH THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO THE MANUFACTURER FOR ASSISTANCE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED AND INFORMED THE CONTACT TO SPEAK WITH NHTSA TO FILE A VEHICLE SAFETY COMPLAINT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 116,349. *PM*JB

ABS UNIT FAILED. YELLOW DASHBOARD WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. RED BRAKE WARNING LIGHT WAS NOT ILLUMINATED. THE BRAKE PEDAL WHEN PUSHED TRAVELED TO THE FLOOR. FRONT WHEEL BRAKES BECAME COMPLETELY INOPERATIVE AS VERIFIED BY JACKING UP THE FRONT WHEELS AND TESTING. REAR BRAKES STILL OPERATED, BUT MINIMALLY. SUSPECT THE ABS UNIT FAILS BY STICKING IN A FAULTY BYPASS STATE THAT DISABLES MOST OF THE BRAKING CAPACITY, INSTEAD OF A FAIL-SAFE FAULT MODE.

EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE FUEL TANK LEAKS DURING NORMAL DRIVING CONDITION AND ESPECIALLY WHILE MAKING TURNS OR IF PARKED IT WILL LEAK IN THE PARKING SPOT AS THE DAY GETS WARMER. THERE IS ALSO A VERY STRONG FUEL SMELL DURING THIS TIMES AND VERY NOTICEABLE BY EVERYONE IN THE JEEP OR AROUND IT.

THE VEHICLE JUMPS OUT OF GEAR OFTEN WHEN BEGINNING ACCELERATION WHILE IN FIRST GEAR AND SOMETIMES WHEN TURNING WHILE IN THIRD GEAR. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DEFECT. IT COULD HAVE PARTICULARLY DEADLY CONSEQUENCES WHEN STARTING FROM A DEAD STOP AND PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC OR TURNING IN FRONT OF ONCOMING TRAFFIC (OF COURSE WHEN GIVEN PLENTY OF TIME AND SPACE AND YIELDING OF RIGHT OF WAY TO OTHER VEHICLES), IF IT WERE TO LEAVE YOU STOPPED ALL OF A SUDDEN AFTER POPPING OUT OF GEAR. IT'S UNBELIEVABLE THAT JEEP AND DEALERSHIPS DENY THAT THIS IS A PROBLEM WHEN IT HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR OVER A DECADE NOW WITH NO OFFICIAL FIX OR RECALL. WE'VE "LEARNED" TO DRIVE IT WITH THIS DYSFUNCTION, BUT THIS SHOULD BE LEADING TO WRONGFUL DEATH LAWSUITS IF IT EVER CAUSED SUCH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING AT 10 MPH, THE BRAKES FAILED WITHOUT WARNING AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT COLLIDED WITH ANOTHER VEHICLE. NO INJURIES OCCURRED AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. A FEW WEEKS LATER, WHILE DRIVING AT 20 MPH AND APPROACHING A RED LIGHT, THE BRAKE SYSTEM FAILED AGAIN WITHOUT WARNING. ON ONE OCCASION, THE CONTACT COLLIDED WITH THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF HER AND EXPERIENCED FRONT END DAMAGE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY UPON COLLISION. NO INJURIES WERE SUSTAINED BY EITHER DRIVER, NO MEDICAL ATTENTION WAS NEEDED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED WHICH STATED THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO A DEFECTIVE BRAKE LINE WHICH CAUSED BRAKE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE FOR THE VEHICLE REGARDING THE BRAKE LINE, HOWEVER, THE CONTACT DID NOT HAVE THE VIN AVAILABLE TO VERIFY THE RECALL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 160,000. *DT *TR

TIPM ELECTRICAL ISSUE. CAUSING INOPERABLE TURN SIGNALS,PARKING LIGHTS, HORN, POWER WINDOW ON DRIVERS SIDE, AND SOMETIMES, DOEST START OF TURN OVER. AUTO REPAIR SHOP SAYS IT NEEDS A TIPM REPLACEMENT

THE DAY BEFORE YESTERDAY MY CAR DIED ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, I THOUGHT MAYBE I HAD RAN OUT OF GAS BECAUSE THE LIGHT WAS ON. I FILLED UP WITH THE GAS CAN AND THE JEEP DID NOT START. I TRIED TO JUMP IT USING CABLES AND IT WOULDN'T TURN OVER. I WENT TO AUTOZONE AND BOUGHT A NEW BATTERY, THE JEEP STARTED AFTER THAT. YESTERDAY I GOT AN OIL CHANGE, THEY CHECKED MY BATTERY AND SHOWED ME THE OIL AFTER THE CHANGE, SAID EVERYTHING WAS GOLDEN. I WAS ON MY WAY HOME WHEN MY BATTERY LIGHT POPPED ON AGAIN, I KIND OF SHOOK IT OFF CONSIDERING I JUST REPLACED IT. WELL MY CAR JERKED ME FORWARD, EVERY SINGLE LIGHT TURNED ON AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP. I PULLED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE HIGH WAY AS MUCH AS I COULD AND MY CAR WAS COMPLETELY DEAD. I GOT IT TOWED TO A MECHANIC AND THEY CALLED TO TELL ME THAT THE ISSUE WAS MY "TIPM" AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO GET IT TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP. AS I GOOGLED WHAT THAT WAS REGARDING MY YEAR MAKE AND MODEL I FOUND OUT THERE WAS A RECALL ON THIS ABOUT 7 YEARS AGO FOR MY JEEP SPECIFICALLY.

VEHICLE WOULD STALL AND PUT ITSELF INTO LIMP MODE UPON DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES OVER THE COURSE OF A 3 WEEK PERIOD. OBD-II THREW CODES PERTAINING TO FAILING SENSORS IN EGR, CAMSHAFT AND ACCELERATION PEDAL. READ MANY ONLINE FORUMS ABOUT OTHER WITH JEEP AND CHRYSLER VEHICLES HAVING FAULTY TIPM UNITS. MY CAR WILL NOW NOT RUN WITHOUT SOUNDING LIKE IT'S BEING STARVED OF FUEL. I FEAR THE BAD TIPM MAY HAVE ALSO CAUSED THE FUEL PUMP TO GO BAD. CHRYSLER WAS LESS THAN HELPING IN SUGGESTING I BRING THE VEHICLE IN AND WAS TOLD MY WARRANTY (IF I EVEN HAD ONE STILL VALID) COULD BE VOIDED FOR BRINGING THE VEHICLE TO A SHOP MY FRIEND OWNS FOR THE REPAIRS INSTEAD OF A DEALERSHIP. THIS CAR HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE I PURCHASED IT TWO YEARS AGO. I'M IN THE THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS IN NON ROUTINE REPAIRS AND OWE TOO MUCH ON IT TO WALK AWAY FROM IT. IT'S MY DAILY DRIVER AND HAVE NO OTHER VEHICLE TO GET TO WORK OR AROUND.

FACTORY CAR RADIO GOES ON AND OFF FOR NO REASON. WHEN IT GOES OFF THE UNIT SEEMS TO HAVE NO POWER TO IT AND IT COMES BACK ON AT RANDOM TIMES. YOU CAN GO WEEKS WITHOUT THE RADIO AND IT WILL COME BACK ON FOR A DAY OR SO FOR NO REASON.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING AT 55 MPH, WHEN THE ENGINE STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS AND HEAD LIGHTS FLICKERED. THE CONTACT SAW SMOKE COMING FROM UNDER THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE AND SAW FIRE SHORTLY AFTER. THE CONTACT STATED HE PULLED OFF NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE FROM THE BATTERY AND THE FIRE TURNED OFF ON IT'S OWN. A POLICE WAS NOT FILED. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO INDEPENDENT MECHANIC, WHERE HE WAS TOLD THE TIPM/FUSE BOX SHORTED OUT AND MELTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE LOCAL DEALER HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED OF FAILURE. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN INFORMED OF FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 85,000.THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ON THE WAY HOME I WENT AROUND THE CORNER AND HIT MY BRAKES THEY WERE THERE THEN THEY FADED AWAY CAUSING ME TO HIT A POLE. I HAD THE JEEP TAKEN TO MY HOME AND WAITED UNTIL I GOT ENOUGH MONEY TO HAVE IT WORKED ON ONCE THE MECHANIC STARTED WORKING ON IT THEY NOTICED A BRAKE LINE PROBLEM AND TOLD ME THAT WAS WHAT CAUSED THE ACCIDENT AND IT WAS A RECALL AND THIS SHOULD BE TAKEN TO A DEALER WHICH I DID AND THEY REFUSED ANY RESPONSIBILITY. * (RECALL RELATED INCIDENT) TS

SUSPENSION FAILURE: I'VE HAD ISSUES WITH MY STEERING COLUMN SINCE HAVING BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE. ABOUT A WEEK AGO MY GEAR BOX FELL OUT OF THE VEHICLE CAUSING LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL. I HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE STEERING COLUMN SHAKING VIOLENTLY SINCE HAVING IT REPAIRED. THIS SHAKING WAS ALSO A PROBLEM FOR ME ABOUT THREE MONTHS AGO.

MY O2 SENSORS (ALL 4) AND MY ECU CONTINUED TO COME UP FAULTY. I TOOK MY JEEP TO A REPAIR SHOP. THE REPAIR MAN TOLD MY THAT MY LEFT AND RIGHT MANIFOLDS WERE CRACKED AND THEY WOULD HAVE TO BE REPLACED. ALSO HAD A BOLT THAT HAD BROKEN OFF ONE OF THE MANIFOLDS.

REAR BRAKE CALIPERS STICKING. REPLACED JANUARY 2018. AGAIN 6 MONTHS LATER AND AGAIN 6 MONTHS AFTER THAT. THE LAST REPLACEMENT LASTED 2 WEEKS AND REAR RIGHT HAS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN.

DRIVER'S SIDE DOOR LOCK MAKES CLICKING NOISE, WILL ONLY UNLOCK/LOCK WHEN DONE ON INSIDE MANUALLY OR ON THE OUTSIDE BY KEY. DOOR SWITCH AND KEY FOB BOTH DO NOT UNLOCK/LOCK DOOR WHEN PARKED. THE DOOR DOES NOT AUTO-LOCK WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION.

PURCHASED VEHICLE FROM DEALERSHIP TIM SHORT ACURA SO. CHARLESTON WV TOOK IT BACK 2 DAYS LATER 150 MILES OVER IT SHAKING REAL BAD DRIVING IT. THEY TOLD ME THEY WAS ORDERING PARTS TO FIX IT BUT NOW WANTS 2000.00 TO REPAIR IT REFUSING TO FIX IT IT WAS UNSAFE TO DRIVE AND IT WAS INSPECTED AT STATE OF WV INSPECTION STATION 300 MILES BEFORE I PURCHASED IT WHAT DO I DO ON THE SAFETY AND INSPECTION PART OF HAVING MY VEHICLE SAFE TO DRIVE

I PURCHASED THE 2007 JEEP WRANGLER USED WITH 77, 000 MILES ON IT. I NOW HAVE 84500. EVERY SINGLE TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS, ONCE A WEEK, IT OVERFLOWS OUT OF THE END SPILLING ON THE FENDER, DRIVER SIDE AND GROUND. I HAVE LEARNED NEVER TO STAND NEAR IT. SINCE GETTING SOAKED A FEW TIMES.

FUEL SPILLS OUT OF FUEL TANKL FILLING PORT AFTER FUEL DISPENSING EQUIPMENT AUTOMATICALLY STOPS. FUEL DISPENSING PUMP SAFETY FEATHERS INCOMPATIBLE WITH JEEP GAS TANK FUEL FILLING DESIGN.THIS PRESENTS DANGEROUS CONDITIONS AND ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN WITH EVERY FUEL FILL UP REGARDLESS OF GAS STATION RAN OR EQUIPMENT. IT'S ALMOST AS IF FUEL VILUME GREATLY INCREASES AFTER GAS DISPENSER STOPS FUELING. MORE THEN A QUARTER GALLON OF FUEL IS SPILLED ON MY VEHICLE ALL OVER IT EVERY TIME I FILL MY VIHICLE,HOT BREAKING SYSTEM COMPONENTS AND EXHAUST COMPONENTS COMING IN CONTACT WITH LIQUID FUEL,.FORUMS AND INTERNET SEARCHES REFLECT THAT THIS PROBLEM EXISTS ON ALL VEHICLES WITH THIS FUEL SYSTEM DESIGN.SITUATION CAPTURED IN THIS VIDEO: HTTPS://YOUTU.BE/ZOUVOKEOLO8

THE VEHICLE WILL NOT SHUT OFF. DROVE IT INTO THE CARPORT TURNED OFF THE IGNITION AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT STOP RUNNING, EVEN WITH THE KEY TURNED OFF AND REMOVED FROM THE IGNITION... ALL GAUGES WERE RANDOMLY TURNING ON AND OFF, AND THE HORN WAS INTERMITTENTLY BLARING. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT THE TIME.

GASOLINE OVERFILLS/OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLING THE TANK.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A MERGE LANE COMING OFF OF NORTHBOUND HIGHWAY 65 IN SPRINGFIELD MISSOURI ENTERING ONTO JAMES RIVER FREEWAY ON 2/19/2018 WHEN MY JEEP STEERING WHEEL STARTED SHAKING VIOLENTLY. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND THEN DROVE VERY SLOWLY FOR APPROXIMATELY 1 MILE TO PARK AT MY PLACE OF EMPLOYMENT. I HAD TO TOW JEEP. I WOULD DESCRIBE THIS AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE" THAT SEEMS TO BE A NOT SO UNCOMMON ISSUE WITH JEEPS. I HAVE HIGH MILEAGE, BUT REPLACED ENGINE DUE TO ANOTHER JEEP ISSUE, SO APPROXIMATELY 70000 MILES ON NEW ENGINE.

ENGINE DIES AT HIGHWAY SPEED . ALL WARNING LIGHTS ON DASH LIGHT UP. AFTER PULLING OVER TO SIDE OF ROAD, WONT START FOR 5-10 MINUTES. VEHICLE HAS DONE THIS 3 TIMES IN LAST 6 WEEKS. CANNOT DIAGNOSE BECAUSE NO CODES ARE RECORDED.

MY CAR STARTED ACTING UP. NEIGHBORS WOULD COME REGULARLY RING MY HOUSE BELL TO LET ME KNOW THAT THE JEEP'S HEADLIGHTS WERE ON. THE JEEP WAS PARKED IN THE STREET. THE PROBLEM: IT WOULDN'T STAY LOCKED. IT WOULD AUTOMATICALLY LOCK AND UNLOCK WHENEVER. WE ONLY HAVE STREET PARKING AT HOME AND IT WAS VERY STRESSFUL TO LEAVE THE CAR OPEN AT NIGHT IN THE STREET OR EVEN WHEN GOING PLACES. ALSO THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED GETTING STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDSHIELD OR SOMETIMES STOPPED WORKING COMPLETELY. THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY WHEN IT HAPPENED AT HIGH SPEEDS ON THE HIGHWAY! FINALLY, THE RIGHT BLINKER WOULDN'T WORK AND THAT PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE RELATED TO THE BROKEN LOCKING/UNLOCKING SYSTEM. AFTER GOING BACK AND FORTH TO TWO DIFFERENT MECHANICS 5 TIMES (EACH TIME THEY SAID IT WAS FIXED BUT IT WASN'T), AFTER REPLACING THE TIPM AND ALL THE WIPER MOTOR PARTS AND REPROGRAMMING EVERYTHING PROPERLY, IT IS NOW A FUNCTIONAL CAR AGAIN! IT WAS A BIG BILL AND ON TOP OF THAT I HAD TO SPEND MONEY ON LYFT AND WAS VERY HANDICAPPED WITHOUT A CAR!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE WINDOW FAILED TO OPERATE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE MOTOR NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CONTACT CALLED RIVERHEAD DODGE AT (631) 727-1040 (LOCATED AT 642 W MAIN ST, RIVERHEAD, NY 11901) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS ASSOCIATED WITH THE VIN. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO CALL NHTSA. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 125,000.

WHEN EVER I FILL UP THE FUEL TANK IT OVER FLOWS OR SPITS UP GAS, AFTER THE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF

EVERY TIME I FILL TANK, IT OVERFLOWS. I HAVE TO STAND BY IT AND LISTEN TO HEAR WHEN GETTING CLOSE TO FULL, SO I CAN MANUALLY STOP IT OR IT GUSHES ALL OVER EVERY TIME. FED UP, ITS DANGEROUS WITH GAS ALL OVER THE JEEP AND GROUND. MANY DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS, MANY DIFFERENT STATES, ALL THE SAME.

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, INSIDE OF GARAGE WITH HIGH CEILINGS. VEHICLE CAUGHT ON FIRE AFTER SITTING WITH ENGINE OFF FOR MORE 3 HOURS. LOOKED LIKE STARTED AT FUSE BOX AREA. *TT *TR

TAKATA RECALL

JEEP WILL NOT START INTERMITTENTLY, WHEN TURNING THE KEY OVER THE JEEP WILL CLICK ONCE AND THE STARTER WILL NOT TURN OVER. SOMETIMES YOU CAN TRY AGIN RIGHT AWAY AND IT'LL START. SOMETIMES YOU HAVE TO WIGGLE THE GEAR SHIFTER, AND SOMETIMES IT TAKES AWHILE TO GET IT TO TURN OVER AND START. I WAS TOLD IT IS EITHER AN IGNITION PROBLEM OR A NEUTRAL SAFETY SWITCH, BUT GEARED TOWARDS THE LATTER. IT DOES IT WHETHER PARKED ON A HILL, FLAT, WARM OR COLD. ACCORDING TO MANY JEEP PAGES AND FORUMS THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM

TAKATA RECALL. RECEIVED A NOTICE FOR PASSENGER AIRBAG INFLATOR THAT IF DEPLOYED COULD RESULT IN SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH. CALLED DEALER TO GET REPAIRED AND WAS TOLD PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE YET FOR THAT RECALL. TEN MONTHS WENT BY WITH PARTS NOT AVAILABLE ALL THE WHILE PUTTING ME AND MY FAMILY AT RISK OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH.

TAKADA RECALL. I RECENTLY HAD MY RECALLED DEFECTIVE TAKADA AIR BAG REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AT ANTWERPEN JEEP IN CATONSVILLE MD. AFTER REPLACING THE AIR BAG, I WAS INFORMED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS STILL ON IN MY VEHICLE. THEY TOLD ME THEY COULD DIAGNOSE THE LIGHT FOR $135.00. I REFUSED TO PAY THIS BECAUSE THEY HAD PREVIOUSLY REPLACED THE CLOCK SPRING UNDER WARRANTY AND I INFORMED THEM OF MY AIR BAG LIGHT PROBLEM THEN. THEY WANTED TO CHARGE ME $200.00 AT THAT TIME TO DIAGNOSE THE SYSTEM THAT THEY HAD JUST WORKED ON. I NOW FEEL THAT I CANNOT TRUST THIS DEALERSHIP TO WORK MY VEHICLE FOR THESE SAFETY ISSUES. THIS JEEP HAS NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND ONLY HAS 80,000 MILES. PLEASE HELP ME RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM I HAVE HAD SINCE I BOUGHT THIS JEEP NEW IN DECEMBER OF 2006 FROM ANTWERPEN JEEP OF CATONSVILLE. THANK YOU

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH AND UNCONTROLLABLE OSCILLATION OCCURRED IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION AND WHEELS. THE OSCILLATION OCCURRS WHEN GOING AROUND A TURN AND WHEN DRIVING STRAIGHT. THE SHAKING IS SO BAD THE VEHICLE IS NEARLY IMPOSSIBLE TO STEER. EACH TIME I HAD TO APPLY THE BREAKS TRY AND AVOID TRAFFIC AND PULL OVER ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED, THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY ACCELERATED WITHOUT WARNING. A LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND OPENED A CASE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 139,388.

WHEN USING A GAS PUMP TO AUTO-FILL THE TANK, THE PUMP SHUTS OFF AND THE TANK OVERFLOWS SOME OF THE FUEL ONTO THE PAINT ON THE OUTSIDE OF THE JEEP. DOESN'T MATTER WHAT GAS STATION I GO TO, THE STYLE OF NOZZLE, OR THE ANGLE THE NOZZLE IS USED AT. IT OVER FILLS EVERY TIME.

I JUST BOUGHT THE JEEP ABOUT 3 WEEKS AGO. I TOOK IT TO THE GAS STATION AND WALKED AWAY TO CLEAN THE WINDOWS WHILE IT WAS FILLING UP. I LOOK OVER AND GAS IS SPEWING OUT ALL OVER THE PLACE. I THOUGHT IT WAS A BAD GAS PUMP. ON THE NEXT FILL UP, IT DID IT AGAIN. I LOOKED ON GOOGLE AND I FIND THAT CHRYSLER KNOWS ABOUT THIS AND HAS NOT DONE A RECALL ON THIS. ON SOME OF THEIR OTHER VEHICLES BUT NOT THIS ONE. I AM HOPING THAT NOT ONLY CAN YOU GET CHRYSLER TO FIX MINE, BUT FORCE TO TO DO A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE IS KILLED.

BOUGHT THE CAR USED. HAD PLENTY OF OIL AND BASED ON THE DATE AND MILES FROM THE PREVIOUS OIL CHANGE HAD ABOUT 600 MILES LEFT BEFORE NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE. NO LIGHT CAME ON NO GAGE INFORMED US THAT I WAS LOW ON OIL AND MY ENGINE SEIZED, I REPLACED THE ENGINE $6000.00 LATER AND NOW THE BRAKE HOSE STARTED SHOOTING OIL ALL OVER MY REAR TIRES WHILE DRIVING ON A STATE HIGHWAY AND NEARLY CRASHED HAVING ABSOLUTELY NO BRAKES. PLEASE TELL ME WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS DEATH TRAP. IF IT IS ME THAN I AM GOING TO ALL LOCAL NEWS STATIONS TO MAKE SURE EVERYONE KNOWS HOW DANGEROUS THESE JEEPS ARE

THE SEAT BELTS IN THE BACK WHEN BUCKLING ARE LOCKED. MAKING IT HARD TO MOVE AROUND. SINCE DAY THE I BOUGHT THE CAR. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIR AND THEY SAID THEY FOUND NOTHING. ONLY AFTER MY WARRANTIES WERE UP DID THEY SAY THEY WOULD FIX THE PROBLEM IF I PAID FOR THE LABOR. THE ENGINE HAS AN OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM ALSO FROM THE FIRST DAY I BOUGHT IT, THE DEALERSHIP HAS COVERED IT UP AGAIN UNTIL THE WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THEY FOUND 5 LEAKY AREAS IN THE ENGINE.

WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE AND YOU REACH THE FULL POINT IT DOES NOT STOP THE PUMP. INSTEAD IT SHOOTS FUEL EVERYWHERE INCLUDING ON THE PERSON FUELING THE VEHICLE. AT FIRST I THOUGH IT WAS THE PUMP BEING USED BUT THIS ACTUALLY HAPPENS EVERY TIME YOU FILL IT UP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT RECEIVED A RECALL NOTIFICATION FOR NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V290000 (AIR BAGS) THE PARTS TO DO THE REPAIR WERE UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER BIG O DODGE OF GREENVILLE, SOUTH CAROLINA WAS CONTACTED AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. (VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE).

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REMOTE DOOR LOCK WOULD NOT OPERATE. UPON INSPECTION, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE FUSE TO THE DOORS HAD BLOWN. THE FUSE WAS REPLACED BUT, MOMENTS LATER, HAD BLOWN A SECOND TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER JEEP, DODGE, CHRYSLER AND FIAT OF YAKIMA WASHINGTON WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIPM MODULE WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MODULE WAS REPLACED, BUT THE FAILURES CONTINUED. DURING THE REPAIR, IT WAS ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THE WIRE HARNESS TO THE TIPM HAD MELTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 95,000.

EVERYIME THIS VEHICLE IS FUELED FULL AT THE GAS PUMP, IT WILL NOT SHUT OFF WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. THIS RESULTS IN AN OVERFLOW OF GASOLINE, EVERYWHERE...ON MY HANDS, DOWN THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE AND PUDDLES ON THE GROUND. THERE IS NO WARNING AND THE ONLY WAY I AM ABLE TO FILL THE TANK IS BY TURNING THE ENGINE ON AND WATCHING THE MILEAGE INCREASE ON THE DISTANCE TO EMPTY (DTE) DISPLAY ON MY DASH.... WHICH IS NOT SAFE TO DO. IT OCCURS EVERYTIME I FILL UP MY JEEP. THERE IS NO RECALL TO FIX THIS ISSUE. IT'S BEEN AN ISSUE SINCE I PURCHASED MY JEEP IN MARCH 2010.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE CLASS 3 TRAILER HITCH UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE DETACHED WHILE DRIVING 20 MPH. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND USED RATCHET STRAPS TO SUPPORT THE BOTTOM PORTION OF THE HITCH TO RESUME DRIVING. THE CLASS 3 HITCH WAS NOT REPLACED. THE SALESPERSON WHERE THE PRODUCT WAS PURCHASED CALLED THE MANUFACTURER ON THE CONTACT'S BEHALF AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE CLASS 3 HITCH WAS OUT OF ONE YEAR WARRANTY. THE MANUFACTURER COULD ONLY OFFER A PERCENTAGE OFF OF ANOTHER PURCHASE. IN ADDITION, THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE SALESPERSON THAT THE HITCH WAS PART OF THE BUMPER; THEREFORE, THE ONE HITCH APPLIED TO BOTH. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.

THE VEHICLE WILL NOT STAY IN 1ST GEAR (MANUAL 6 SPEED). YOU MUST HOLD THE SHIFTER, WITH FORCE IN FIRST GEAR OR ELSE IT "POPS OUT"...MAKES A BAD NOISE WHEN DOING SO. I LOOKED ON JEEP FORUMS AND THERE ARE 5 PAGES OR MORE OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING OF THIS EXACT ISSUE. ITS A SAFETY ISSUE. IF YOU PULL INTO AN INTERSECTION TO MAKE A TURN, AND ARE NOT HOLDING THE SHIFTER WITH ENOUGH FORCE AND IT POPS OUT OF GEAR, YOU MIGHT GET HIT BY AN ONCOMING CAR, SINCE YOU'VE STOPPED GOING FORWARD. PULLING AWAY FROM A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, THE CAR BEHIND YOU MIGHT SLAM INTO YOU, BECAUSE YOU STARTED TO GO THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN STOPPED GOING FORWARD. THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM WITH THESE MANUAL TRANSMISSION WRANGLERS - THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL. THIS IS NOT A RANDOM OCCURRANCE. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED THE CONDITION KNOWN AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE" WHILE TURNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE ENTIRE FRONT END OF THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO BOUNCE UP AND DOWN UNCONTROLLABLY. THE CONTACT HAD TO DECELERATE IN ORDER TO REGAIN CONTROL OF THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.
