2007 Jeep Wrangler complaints

BAD CLOCK SPRING. AIR BAG LIGHT AND RELATED CHIMES CONTINUE TO GO OFF. HAD SHOP CHECK CODES AND FOUND CLOCK SPRING BAD.

I HAD PREVIOUSLY HAD MY CLOCKSPRING REPLACED TWICE PER CHRYSLER AND FOUGHT TO GET REIMBURSED. NOW, MY CRUISE CONTROL IS NOT FUNCTIONING WHICH PERTAINS TO THE CLOCKSPRING. I'M CONCERNED THAT THE CLOCKSPRING IS COMPROMISED AND WILL EVENTUALLY FAIL AS THE PREVIOUS TWO HAVE. A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS A SAFETY ISSUE AS IT DETERMINES WHETHER OR NOT THE AIRBAG WILL DISCHARGE. IT IS A CONTINUING CONCERN.

FUEL SPITBACK. WHEN FILLING 2007, JEEP, WRANGLER IT ALWAYS SPITS BACK OUT OF THE FILLER WHEN USING AUTOMATIC FILL ON HANDLE OF GAS PUMP. IF I HAND FILL IT AND LISTEN VERY CAREFULLY I CAN HEAR THE FUEL RISING IN THE FILLER NECK AN STOP THE SPLASHBACK ABOUT HALF OF THE TIME.

LETTER FROM CONGRESSMAN FORBES ON BEHALF OF CONSTITUENT RE 2007 JEEP WRANGLER RECALL. *SMD THE CONSUMER STATED THE TRANSMISSION FAILED. ALSO, THE CONSUMER EXPERIENCED WHAT WAS KNOWN AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE". *JB

THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AT RANDOM, MY HORN NO LONGER WORKS. THE DEALER SAID THAT IT IS DUE TO A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY. I GOT THE RECALL INFORMATION STATING THAT THE CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY MAY BECOME CONTAMINATED, BUT MY VIN IS NOT ONE THAT IS OFFICIALLY RECALLED. I WOULD REALLY LIKE THIS FIXED AS IT IS A SHOW VEHICLE. THANK YOU! (NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 16V290). ALSO, MY GAS ALWAYS SPLASHES OUT ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE WHEN IT'S ANY WHERE NEAR FULL. IT DOESN'T TRIGGER THE GAS PUMP TO STOP AND SPLASHES BACK AT ME EVERY TIME I FILL UP FOR GAS. PLEASE HELP! *TR

CLOCK SPRING FAILURE. HORN WILL NOT HONK WHEN PRESSED AND AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF PERIODICALLY. OCCURS BOTH WHEN STATIONARY AND MOVING.

MY AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY. I HAVE TRIED CLEANING THE WIRING CONNECTORS UNDER THE FRONT SEAT BUT THIS HAS HAD NO EFFECT ON THE LIGHT GOING ON OR OFF. THIS HAPPENS SOMETIMES AS IT IS SITTING STILL AS WELL AS WHILE DRIVING. I HAVE FOUND THIS BEING AN ISSUE WHILE RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM ONLINE IN EVERY FORUM THAT I HAVE SEARCHED IN. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR SEVERAL MONTHS NOW AND I AM CONCERNED THAT THE AIRBAGS WON'T DEPLOY WHEN AND IF NEEDED. I HAVE KIDS THAT DRIVE AND RIDE IN THIS VEHICLE.

I BOUGHT THE 2007 JEEP JK USED WITH APPROXIMATELY 81,000 MILES. SHORTLY, AFTER OWNING THE VEHICLE I EXPERIENCED THE JUMP OUT OF GEAR (JOG). IT IS A VERY FRIGHTENING, AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH THIS TRANSMISSION. THE PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN STARTING IN FIRST GEAR FROM A DEAD STOP. MOST OFTEN, THERE ARE VEHICLES BEHIND YOU, WHEN THE JOG OCCURS THE VEHICLES BEHIND ARE NOT PREPARED FOR YOUR LOSS OF FORWARD MOMENTUM. ON ONE INSTANCE I HAVE BEEN HIT FROM BEHIND. ON MANY OTHER INSTANCES THERE HAVE BEEN SOME CLOSE CALLS. THE OTHER DANGER IS IF ONE IS PULLING OUT AND CROSSING A TRAFFIC LANE. LOSING FORWARD MOMENTUM CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS AS CARS APPROACH FROM EITHER THE LEFT OR RIGHT SIDE. I TRULY BELIEVE THIS ISSUE IS A RESULT OF A TRANSMISSION DESIGN FLAW THAT SHOULD BE COVERED BY JEEP NO MATTER IF THE ORIGINAL WARRANTY HAS EXPIRED. IN MOST OF THESE CASES, THERE HAS TO BE SEVERAL RELATED INJURIES BEFORE THESE MANUFACTURERS WILL TAKE ACTION. IT IS ALL A COST BENEFIT ANALYSIS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, ANOTHER DRIVER ON THE ROAD MADE THE CONTACT AWARE THAT THE VEHICLE WAS ON FIRE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT THE FLAMES WERE LOCATED NEAR THE ENGINE. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A IMPOUND LOT AND DEEMED DESTROYED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. A POLICE REPORT WAS FILED AND THERE WERE NO INJURIES REPORTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 88,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED.

CLOCKSPRING RECALL. I OWN A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER V6 AUTOMATIC WITH 86000 MILES. AROUND APRIL 25TH 2015 I NOTICED THE AIRBAG DASH LIGHT WOULD LIGHT UP AND DING EVERY FEW MINUTES. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I FOUND THIS TO BE A VERY COMMON OCCURRENCE WITH THIS MODEL JEEP. I TOOK MY JEEP TO MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP LAST WEEK FOR ITS REGULAR MAINTENANCE AND THE SERVICE MANAGER CALLED STATING THE CLOCKSPRING WAS IN NEED OF REPLACEMENT. I ASKED HIM IF THE JEEP WAS COVERED UNDER THE RECENT RECALL AND HE SAID HE "COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING ABOUT IT IN HIS SYSTEM". I EXPLAINED WHAT I HAD READ ONLINE ABOUT ALL THE COMPLAINTS AND TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE CLOCKSPRING REPLACEMENT. HE TOLD ME THE ONLY WAY THE DEALERSHIP WOULD FIX IT WITHOUT CHARGING ME $700 IS IF I HAD PROOF OF THE RECALL. ASIDE FROM THIS PROBLEM BEING ANNOYING , I'M CONCERNED ABOUT THE SAFETY WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE AND IF THE AIRBAG WOULD PROPERLY FUNCTION IF MYSELF OR MY WIFE WERE IN AN ACCIDENT. ANY HELP WITH THIS MATTER IS GREATLY APPRECIATED.

THE SPRING CLOCK IS BROKEN.

FUEL SHOOTS OUT WHEN FILLING GAS TANK. EVEN AFTER HAVING CHECK VALVE REPLACED

AT ANY GAS STATION (VEHICLE STATIONARY) WHEN FILLING UP FUEL TANK, USING THE AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF ON THE PUMP, IT WILL SHUT OFF, BUT ALWAYS ALLOWS GAS TO OVERFLOW AND SPEW A SMALL AMOUNT OF GAS OUT THE FILLER HOLE AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE JEEP. SUSPECT SOME SORT OF FILLER NECK OR GAS TANK VENTILATION PROBLEM. THIS MOST RECENTLY HAPPENED TODAY (1/11/16), BUT HAS HAPPENED EVERY TIME I'VE FILLED THE GAS TANK SINCE I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE USED ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE COOLANT LINES FOR THE TRANSMISSION BLEW OUT AND CAUSED THE TRANSMISSION TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING. IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPLACED DUE TO FAULTY COOLANT LINES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 144,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50-70 MPH, THE VEHICLE VIOLENTLY SHOOK AND EXPERIENCED A LOSS OF STEERING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE STEERING STABILIZER NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 29,985. UPDATED 02/10/16*LJ THE CONSUMER WENT TO ANOTHER REPAIR SHOP, WHERE HE WAS INFORMED THE UPPER AND LOWER BALL JOINTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. UPDATED 04/05/16.*JB

I BOUGHT A USED 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 2 DR, 4X4 SOFT TOP, IN OCT 20014. IT HAD 82,000 MILES. I HAD NO PREVIOUS BUYING ON THIS MODEL. I DRIVE MOSTLY HIGHWAY MILES IN NORTH EAST OHIO. I DRIVE ALMOST 90 MILES, ROUND TRIP, PER WORK WEEK. I NOTICED A SLIGHT BOUNCE IN THE FRONT END, SUSPENSION DURING HIGHWAY POSTED SPEEDS OF 65 MILES PER HOUR. I CHANGED THE THE SHOCKS 4 EA.AFTER MY FRONT STRAIGHT AXIAL BEGAN TO BOUNCE UP AND DOWN, WELL THE BOUNCE WAS WORSE, AFTER A SHORT PERIOD OF TRYING TO HANDLE ROAD CONDITION, EVEN CHANGING ROUTE, TO AVOID THE BOUNCE, AT HIGHWAY SPEED 60 MILES AND UNDER, IT WAS COLD OUT 40 DEGREES, HEAVY TRAFFIC CHRISTMAS TIME, RUSH HOUR, MY JEEP WENT INTO A RADICAL BOUNCE CALLED " DEATH WOBBLE " AS NOTED IN THE JEEP WORLD, NOT NOTED BY JEEP, I HAD THREE, IN THE ROW, ONE WORSE, THAN THE ONE BEFORE. THE BOUNCING CAUSED A TRANSMISSION COOLING LINE TO DIS-LARGE, FROM A SITED COUPLING, TO THE ENGINE RADIATER. THE LOSE OF 4 QUARTS OF TRANSMISSION FLUID TO SPILL ON THE 5 LANE HIGHWAY. I NOTICED A LOSE IN SPEED, SMOKE AND RPM ADVANCE, FROM 1800 TO 4000 RPMS IN LESS THAN A MINUTE. NOW I HAD TO NAVIGATE MY WAY THROUGH 4 LANES OF HEAVY 60 MILES TO 75 MILE AN HOUR TRAFFIC, WITH OUT GETTING HIT. WITHIN TWO MILES I MANAGED TO PULL OVER TO THE RIGHT SHOULDER. I HAD A FLASHLIGHT, I LEFT THE ENGINE RUNNING, BECAUSE IT WAS GETTING DARK OUT, I WENT UP FRONT AND LOOKED AT THE FRONT END AND SAW TRANSMISSION FLUID. I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE, AND CALLED FOR A TOW. 2 HOURS LATER, PLUS 77.00

FAULTY AIR BAG CLOCKSPRING

"TAKATA RECALL" AS OF YESTERDAY, DECEMBER 14, 2015, A WHITE TAPE STARTED COMING OUT OF THE STEERING COLUMN. A FEW WEEKS AGO, THE AIR BAG LIGHT WOULD COME ON AND GO BACK OFF WHICH I THOUGHT WAS ODD BUT, IT WENT BACK OUT SO I WASN'T CONCERNED AND IT NEVER STAYED ON FOR ANY LENGTH OF TIME. THEN YESTERDAY I GET IN MY JEEP TO GO TO WORK AND AS I TURN THE WHEEL OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY, I COULD HEAR THIS NOISE LIKE SOMEONE WAS WRINKLING UP PAPER. IT IS ONLY EIGHT MILES FROM MY HOME TO WORK SO, I KEPT LISTENING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT IT WAS. BY THE TIME I GOT TO WORK, THERE WAS A WHITE TAPE COMING OUT OF THE STEERING COLUMN. AFTER WORK, I TOOK IT AND HAD IT LOOKED AT AND WAS TOLD THAT THE "CLOCK SPRING" IS UNRAVELING IN THE STEERING COLUMN. USUALLY THIS IS ONLY SEEN WHEN YOU HAVE BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT AND THE AIR BAG HAS BEEN DEPLOYED. I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT SO, IT SHOULD NOT BE UNRAVELING INSIDE THE STEERING COLUMN. I WAS ALSO TOLD, I SHOULDN'T DRIVE MY VEHICLE BECAUSE THERE IS A CHANCE THE AIR BAG WILL DEPLOY. I GOT IT HOME AND NOW IT IS SITTING IN MY DRIVEWAY.

TAKATA RECALL , 1 MONTH AGO THE AIR BAG LIGTH TURN ON IN MY CLUSTER AND I DONT KNOW HOW HE TURN OF EVERITYNG LOOKS FINE JUST THAT LIGTH AND THE BELL SONDS EVERY FEW MINUTES.

GOING 55 TO 60 MPH THE JEEP STARED TO GO INTO A DEATH WOBBLE. I HAD TO MAKE AN EMERGENCY MOVE INTO THE BREAK DOWN LANE. ON I 95 IN AUGUSTA MAINE

THIS PROBLEM IS KNOWN AS THE JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. ON A 25 MILE STRETCH OF ROAD BETWEEN SONOITA, AZ AND TUCSON, ARIZONA I HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD 5 TIMES IN ONE TRIP TO STOP DANGEROUS AND ALMOST UNMANAGEABLE FRONT-END STEERING VIBRATIONS. JEEP AS FAR AS I KNOW HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL, BUT FROM READING AUTOMOTIVE LITERATURE I UNDERSTAND THAT HAVE ISSUED 4 OR 5 MODIFICATION KITS NONE OF WHICH HAS BEEN SUCCESSFUL IN SOLVING THE PROBLEM. THE JEEP STEERS NORMALLY AT LOW SPEED OR ON STRAIGHT GLASS SMOOTH HIGHWAYS. HOWEVER ABOVE 40 MPH WITH ANY RHYTHMIC RIPPLE OR INDIVIDUAL POTHOLE A FRONT END HOPPING VIBRATION STARTS THAT CAN ONLY BE CONTROLLED BY STOPPING THE VEHICLE AND THEN PULLING BACK ONTO THE HIGHWAY. I HAD A NON-DEALER GARAGE FIX IT ONCE AND JEEP REIMBURSED ME (BUT NO FORMAL RECALL). THE PROBLEM REAPPEARED IN SIX MONTHS AND I PRESSURED THE GARAGE INTO FIXING IT AGAIN. SOME TIME AFTER THAT THE PROBLEM REOCCURRED AND THEY WOULD NOT DO ANYTHING. ACCORDING TO AUTOMOTIVE LITERATURE JEEP AS ISSUED 4 OR 5 DIFFERENT ENGINEERING CHANGES FOR THE PROBLEM, BUT NONE HAVE PRODUCED A PERMANENT FIX. THIS TELLS ME THAT THE "JEEP DEATH WOBBLE" IS LESS IF A WEAR ISSUE, BUT RATHER AN ENGINEERING FAILURE. ONCE THE FRONT END STARTS TO BOUNCE THE TIRE IN CONTACT WITH THE ROAD WILL STEER THE VEHICLE TO THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE ROAD. THEN THE TIRE ON THE OTHER SIDE COMES DOWN AND STEERS THE OTHER DIRECTION AND THE FRONT END BOUNCES SIDED-TO-SIDE WITH INCREASING VIOLENCE.

THE HORN WILL NOT WORK AND THE AIR BAG LIGHT CHIMES OFF AND ON. AND NOW I HAVE INTERMITTENT STARTING ISSUE. I CAN DRIVE UP THE ROAD AND CUT IT OFFAND THEN GET BACK IN AND IT WON'T START. BUT WAIT ABOUT 10 MINUTES AND IT'LL START RIGHT UP

MY HORN QUIT WORKING THE SAME TIME THE AIRBAG LIGHT AND THE ELECTRONIC STABILIZER CONTROL / BAS LIGHT CAME ON.

PICKED UP APPROXIMATELY ONE HALF CORD OF WOOD USING MY UTILITY TRAILER, OVER-DRIVE DISABLED WHEN PULLING TRAILER. BACKED TRAILER INTO YARD TO UNLOAD THE ALREADY SEASONED AND SPLIT WOOD. PUT JEEP INTO PARK, ENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE AND LEFT THE JEEP TO DROP THE TRAILER, HEARD A POP AND FLAMES BEGAN TO SHOOT OUT FROM UNDER THE JEEP. I REACHED INTO THE VEHICLE TO TURN OFF THE ENGINE AND REMOVE THE KEY. I HEARD ANOTHER POP AND SAW THAT FLAMES WERE NOW SHOOTING INTO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. I RAN INTO MY HOUSE TO GET A FIRE EXTINGUISHER, CAME BACK OUT, OPENED THE HOOD CAREFULLY AND BEGAN TO TRY AND EXTINGUISH THE FLAME. IN ORDER TO FULLY PUT OUT THE FIRE IT TOOK THE FIRE EXTINGUISHER AND MULTIPLE BUCKETS OF WATER. AFTER THE FIRE WAS FULLY EXTINGUISHED I CONTACTED MY INSURANCE CARRIER.

MY JEEP LOST ALL POWER AND BRAKES WHILE DRIVING. THE ABS AND BRAKE LINES ARE CHARRED THROUGHOUT THE ENTIRE VEHICLE FROM OVERHEATING AND THE MAIN WIRING HARNESS WAS DAMAGED AS WELL. THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AND NATIONAL DODGE JACKSONVILLE NC AWAITING REPAIRS. MIKE IN THE SERVICE DEPARTMENT SAYS THE ABS OVERHEATED BUT NO FIRE BUT ANOTHER MECHANIC I HAD LOOK AT IT SAID THERE WAS A SMALL FIRE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED WITHOUT THE CLUTCH PEDAL BEING DEPRESSED, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO ROLL AWAY UNTIL IT STALLED. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 15V222000 (POWER TRAIN); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER OFFERED TO ACCOMMODATE HIM DUE TO HIS RESIDENCE CURRENTLY BEING OUTSIDE OF THE UNITED STATES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND STATED THAT THE CONTACT HAD TO PURCHASE THE PART AND THERE WAS NO GUARANTEE FOR REIMBURSEMENT. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 32,000.

WHEN DRIVING AT ABOUT 50 MPH RIGHT FRONT TIRE HIT A POTHOLE REPAIR/BUMP. THIS THREW MY FRONT END INTO MAJOR OSSCILLATION/WOBBLE. I HAD TO SLOW DOWN TO 35 BEFORE IT WOULD STOP. SINCE THAT FIRST TIME IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE. NOW IT'S HAPPENING ONCE A DAY AND IT IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND IN TRAFFIC. I HAVE REPLACED SHOCKS AND BALL JOINTS WHICH HASNT WORKED. ACTUALLY GOTTEN WORSE.

HIT A SLIGHT BUMP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND THE JEEP SUDDENLY STARTED SHACKING VIOLENTLY. THIS IS ALSO COMMONLY KNOWN AS THE "DEATH WOBBLE". I HAD NO CONTROL OVER MY VEHICLE AND HAD TO SWERVE OVER AND STOP, CAUSING TRAFFIC BEHIND ME TO HAVE TO REACT SUDDENLY.

THE BELOW LINK EXPLAINS THOROUGHLY OF THE ISSUE AND PROBLEM IN REGARDS TO THE CHECK VALVE IN THE GAS TANK AND THE FUEL OVERSPILL CAUSES: HTTP://WWW.JEEPPROBLEMS.COM/TRENDS/FUEL-OVERFLOW/ I DO NOT BELIEVE MY WRANGLER HAD THE ISSUE FIXED AND AFTER CHECKING THE CHRYSLER DATABASE BY VIN I DO NOT RECALL SEEING IT WAS A RECALL NOR THE CHECK VALVE/GAS TANK REPLACED/FIXED.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, I HIT A SMALL BUMP ON MY REAR WHEEL AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY WHOLE VEHICLE HAD STARED TO SHAKE VIGOROUSLY INCLUDING THE STEERING WHEEL I HAD TO MOVE OF THE ROAD AND COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IN ORDER FOR THE WHEEL TO STOP SHAKING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 55 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 69,000.

THIS HAPPENS FREQUENTLY WHEN I HIT A BUMP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. THE FRONT END STARTS TO SHAKE SO BAD, I HAVE ALMOST GOTTEN INTO ACCIDENTS TRYING TO GET OUT OF PEOPLES WAY. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE IT, HEAVEN FORBID MY WIFE EVER DRIVES IT. I AM SCARED TO DRIVE MY OWN CAR. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS IS CALLED THE JEEP DEATH SHAKE, AND IT HAPPENS TO ALOT OF JEEP OWNERS, WHY HAS THERE NOT BEEN A RECALL TO FIX IT BEFORE ANYONE ELSE DIES, I HAVE HEARD THAT SEVERAL PEOPLE HAVE DIED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE VEHICLE RESTARTED INDEPENDENTLY. ALL WARNING LIGHTS ON THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER ILLUMINATED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES WHO WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE OR REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 30,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

AIRBAG LIGHT ON CLUSTER BLINKS AND ALSO MAKES A BEEPING SOUND. IT WILL NOT SHUT OFF,THEREFORE THERE WILL BE A PROBLEM WITH AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT IF A ACCIDENT OCCURS.THERE ARE NO CURRENT RECALLS ON THIS PROBLEM,ONLY ONGOING INVESTIGATIONS. I FEEL VERY UNSAFE DRIVING THIS CAR. IF THERE ARE NO RECALLS FOR THIS PROBLEM,THE DEALER WILL NOT FIX IT. I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY THE DEALER FOR THIS SAFETY DEFECT,AS IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THANK YOU. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNED A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THERE WAS A BURNING ODOR IN THE VEHICLE. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, IT BECAME ENGULFED IN FLAMES. THE FIRE DEPARTMENT WAS ABLE TO EXTINGUISH THE FIRE. THE VEHICLE WAS DESTROYED. A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN AS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 173,000.

WHEN I DRIVE OVER 50 MPH AND HIT A BUMP, THE FRONT END OF THE CAR SHAKES VIOLENTLY. IT BECOMES VERY HARD TO CONTROL. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP THE SHAKING IS TO SLOW DOWN WHICH MADE IT EXTREMELY DANGEROUS WHEN I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND THIS HAPPENED.

THE FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME IT IS FILLED. THE SYSTEM DOES NOT "CLICK" OR AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF GAS FLOW TO INDICATE WHEN TANK IS FULL, IT SIMPLY OVERFLOWS. I HAVE TESTED MANY DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND THIS ISSUE OCCURS EVERYTIME, CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR ME AND THOSE AROUND ME, AS WELL AS ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUES.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON AND RECENTLY THE HORN STOPPED WORKING ALSO. I HAVE FOUND A RECALL, BUT WHEN SPEAKING WITH CHRYSLER ABOUT MY AVAILABLE RECALLS, IT IS NOT LISTED. THE NHTSA ACTION NUMBER IS PE11019 AND MY MAKE AND MODEL IS LISTED IN THE CAMPAIGN. WAS TOLD TO GET THE OTHER RECALLS ADDRESSED AND SEE IF IT WOULD HELP WITH THE PROBLEM.

GAS TANK SPIT BACK DURING FUEL FILLING.

I WAS DRIVING MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA AND WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT. I STRUCK THE REAR END OF ANOTHER VEHICLE WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 30 MPH. THERE WAS EXTENSIVE FRONT END DAMAGE TO MY VEHICLE AND DAMAGE TO THE VEHICLE I HIT. THE FINAL TOTAL FOR REPAIRS OF MY JEEP WERE APPROXIMATELY $13,000. THE AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY IN MY VEHICLE CAUSING ME TO HIT MY WRIST AGAINST THE THE STEERING WHEEL AND I SUFFERED A MODERATE WRIST INJURY THAT STILL BOTHERS ME MONTHS LATER. I WOULD THINK WITH $13,000 WORTH OF DAMAGE IT WOULD BE SUFFICIENT ENOUGH TO GET THE AIRBAG TO DEPLOY BUT IT DID NOT. I BELIEVE THE INJURIES I SUFFERED COULD HAVE BEEN AVOIDED IF THE AIRBAG WAS DEPLOYED. ...UPDATED 08/27/15 *BF UPDATED 12/7/2015*JS

STARTING OFF IN 1ST GEAR, MY JEEP SUDDENLY POPPED OUT OF GEAR AS I WAS ENTERING ROADWAY. THAT WAS THE START OF A PROBLEM THAT I STILL HAVE TODAY. DEALER HAS SAID IT IS NORMAL AND CAN'T DUPLICATE PROBLEM. I NOTIFIED CHRYSLER OF THE PROBLEM, BUT THEY FAILED TO RESPOND TO MY INVESTIGATION REQUEST.

MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN IN CITY DRIVING THE TRAC BAR MOUNT ATTACHED TO THE FRAME BROKE OFF. IF THIS WOULD HAVE HAPPENED WHILE ON HE FREEWAY IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DEADLY! THIS JEEP HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE I GOT IT 5 MONTHS AGO. I HAD TO WELD THE TRAC BAR MOUNT AND INSTALL AN AFTERMARKET SUPPORT BRACKET. UNFORTUNATELY THIS PROBLEM IS SO MUCH THAT THEY MAKE AN AFTERMARKET PART FOR IT!

DURING NORMAL STREET DRIVING THE AIR BAG LIGHT WAS TURNING ON AND OFF FOR THE 5 MILE DRIVE HOME. TRIED TURNING CAR OFF AND ON, THE. TRIED PUSHING THE FUSES DOWN TO MAKE SURE IT WASN'T THAT. ALSO RECENTLY REPLACED THE TIPM. SO FAR, I'M NOT LIKING THIS JEEP. A LOT OF PROBLEMS. *TR

JEEP OVERHEATED IN TRAFFIC. TURNS OUT COOLING FAN WAS NOT WORKING. ALL FUSES AND RELAYS WERE CHECKED. TURNS OUT IT WAS THE TIPM. YOU WOULD THINK BY NOW JEEP WOULD PAY FOR THIS FIX. ESPECIALLY SINCE THIS PART IS A NATION WIDE BACK ORDER. AND IT'S A $600 PART!

HEADLIGHTS BEGAN FLASHING, HORN HONKING, AND DOOR LOCKS WOULD NOT RESPOND. COULD NOT DISABLE HORN WITH KEY FOB AS USUAL. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS. THE JEEP DEALER SAYS THAT IT IS A FAULTY TIPM (TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE)......UPDATED 11/13/15 *BF UPDATED 10/26/2017*CN
