2008 Jeep Wrangler complaints

GAS GOING ALL OVER THE PLACE AND ON ME. ALSO THE JEEP JERKS SO BAD THAT I ALMOST HIT MY HEAD. THE TRANSMISSON WAS CHANGED 30,000 MILES AGAIN AND RUNS LIKE CRAP.

I WAS DRIVING MY JEEP WRANGLER 2008 AND STATED SHAKING SEVERELY WHICH WAS DIFFICULT TO CONTROL. AFTER CONDUCTING SOME ONLINE RESEARCH I LEARNED THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEP WRANGLERS AND IT'S CALLED DEATH WOBBLE.

GAS OVERSPILLS FROM THE TANK. DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY STOP WHEN FILLING CAUSING GAS TO SPLASH ON THE OWNER, VEHICLE, AND GROUND. HAPPENS EVERY TIME WE ATTEMPT TO FILL THE TRUCK UNLESS WE MANUALLY STOP ENTERING GAS BEFORE IT'S FULL.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A STATE HIGHWAY AT 40 MPH. WHEN MY HORN STARTED BLOWING, WINDSHIELD WIPER TURNED ON, LIGHTS FLASHING SO I HAD TO TURN ONTO A SIDE ROAD. MOTOR WAS STILL RUNNING SO I TURN IT OFF. THE ENGINE STOPPED BUT EVERYTHING ELSE REMAINED ON. HORN WAS STILL BLOWING, WIPERS ON...I DISCONNECTED THE HORN WIRES TO STOP THE HORN. I STARTED TO MOVE SOME WIRES THINKING THAT THERE MAY BE A SHORT SOMEWHERE. FINALLY EVERYTHING STOPPED BUT NOW MY CAR WOULDN'T START. I HAD TO GET IT TOWED. THROUGH SOME RESEARCH I FOUND IT TO BE THE TIPM ( TOTAL INTEGRATED POWER MODULE. IT HAS BEEN FINE SINCE I HAD IT REPLACED. FORTUNATELY THIS ALL TOOK PLACE DURING THE DAY IN GOOD WEATHER. HAD IT HAPPENED AT NIGHT OR IN THE WINTER SNOW OR IN SOME REMOTE AREA IT WOULD HAVE CAUSED A GREAT DEAL OF PAIN OR A DANGEROUS SITUATION. FROM WHAT I HAVE RESEARCHED MYSELF THIS IS NOT A ISOLATED INCIDENT. PLEASE REVIEW THIS INFORMATION. THANK YOU.

6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION JUMPS OUT OF 1ST GEAR WHEN DRIVING

WHEN FILLING THE TANK WITH GAS THE GAS PUMP DOES NOT AUTO STOP FILLING AND GAS SPRAYS OUT OF THE FILL OPENING AROUND THE PUMP HANDLE. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL UP AND AS A RESULT I MUST ALWAYS FILL THE TANK MANUALLY. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE 2008 WHEN I PURCHASED THE CAR.

BRAKE LINE STARTED TO LEAK

VEHICLE COMPONENTS BEGIN MALFUNCTIONING, WIPERS TURN ON, WIPER WASHER PUMP FLOODS WINDSHIELD, LIGHTS FLASH, HEADLIGHTS RANDOMLY TURN OFF WHILE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION, HORN SOUNDS, CANNOT TURN VEHICLE OFF. TURN KEY TO OFF POSITION AND VEHICLE CONTINUES TO RUN CREATING AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. WIPERS AND WASHERS BLIND DRIVER RANDOMLY. ONLINE RESEARCH ALL POINTS TO KNOWN ISSUE WITH TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE THAT HAS WELL DOCUMENTED FAILURE RATE. THIS IS A HORRIBLY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT DESERVES INVESTIGATION AND REMEDIATION.

THE DEFROST ON A JEEP WRANGLER IS VERY INEFFECTIVE AND POORLY DESIGNED. THE ONLY BLOWER FOR THE DEFROST IS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE WINDOW CAUSING THE SIDES OF THE FRONT WINDSHIELD TO SEVERELY FREEZE UP AND BECOME IMPOSSIBLE TO SEE OUT OF DURING INCLEMENT WEATHER SUCH AS FOG, SLEET OR SNOW. BASICALLY ANY TYPE OF PRECIPITATION DURING WEATHER THAT IS BELOW FREEZING WILL CAUSE THIS WHICH RESULTS IN A SEVERE INABILITY TO SEE OUT OF THE WINDSHIELD WHICH IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE WHEN DRIVING IN INCLEMENT WEATHER. THIS HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING AT ANY SPEED ON ANY ROAD AS LONG AS THERE IS PRECIPITATION AND TEMPS ARE BELOW FREEZING.

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK, NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION, I ALWAYS GET ABOUT A CUP OF GAS THAT SPITS BACK OUT OF THE FILLER PORT. THE NOZZLE ALWAYS CLICKS OFF BUT THE GAS JUST KEEPS COMING.

THE HORN BLOWS ON ITS ON, THE WIPERS AND WASHERS COME ON BY THERE SELF, LIGHTS COME ON BY THERE SELF, AND THE ONLY WAY TO TURN THEM OFF IS DISCONNECT THE BATTERY. IT HAPPENS MOVING OR STATIONARY.

GASOLINE SPLASH BACK WHEN FILLING GAS TANK. THE JEEP WAS IN PARK AND LEVEL. GASOLINE BURPED OUT OF FUEL FILLER TANK TUBE. ALL OVER THE JEEP AND GROUND. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. ALSO GETS ON CLOTHES.

THE DASHBLIGHTS STARTED ACTING POSSESSED WHILE DRIVING AND WINSHIELD WHIPERA CAME ON WITHOUT BEING ACTIVATED BY SWITCH. NOW THE GUAGES ARE STUCK STRAIGHT UP AND IT WONT SHIFT OUT OF PARK..THE RADIO AND WINDOWS STILL WORK AND THE LIGHTS CONE ON WITHOUT BEING TURNED ON.

WHEN FILLING UP WITH GAS AT THE GAS STATION EVEN IF I MANUALLY STOP THE GAS FLOW EARLY THE GAS OVERFLOWS OUT ON TO THE BUMPER AND GROUND. MAJOR GAS SPITBACK!

2008 JEEP WRANGLER HAS HAD SEVERAL ISSUES WITH TIPM. WIPERS WILL COME ON, HORN WILL SOUND, WASHER FLUID SPRAYS, AND TRANSMISSION WILL NOT SHIFT (WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND THIS HAPPENS) INTERMITTENTLY AND WILL SOMETIMES CREATE A NO CRANK/NO START CONDITION AFTER THE MALFUNCTION HAPPENS WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND HAS BEEN SHUT OFF. DEFECT HAS BEEN TRACED BACK TO TIPM AND TIPM WAS REPLACED WITH AN AFTERMARKET REMANUFACTURED TIPM. PROBLEM RESOLVED AND NOW HAS REAPPEARED WITH ADDITIONAL SYMPTOMS, SUCH AS WHEN VEHICLE IS PUT IN REVERSE WIPERS WILL GO OFF AND ENGINE WILL REV TO HIGHER RPMS THAN NECESSARY TO ALLOW FOR ACCELERATION. THE TIPM DEFECT CREATES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD WHEN IT INTERFERES WITH THE SHIFTING, ACCELERATION OF VEHICLE. MOST RECENT ISSUE WAS 11/09/2020; ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING SINCE 06/2019.

WHEN I FILL UP THE VEHICLE, GAS FLOWS BACKWARDS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK AND POURS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE ONTO THE GROUND. THE FUEL ALSO SPLASHES ONTO ME AS WELL. I HAVE THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY OFF KEYS OUT OF THE IGNITION AND IN PARK.

WHEN FUELING IT OVERFLOWS INSTEAD OF STOPPING.

OVER THE PAST FOUR MONTHS MY JEEP HAS HAD STARTING ISSUES. EVERYTHING IS RUNNING FINE, GO OUTSIDE AND IT WON'T CRANK. SOMETIMES IT WILL TURN OVER OTHER TIMES, NOTHING AT ALL. I'VE HAD IT TOWED, PURCHASED A NEW BATTERY, HAD THE STARTER, ALTERNATOR, ETC. CHECKED AND ALL GOOD. JEEP RUNS GOOD FOR A COUPLE WEEKS AND THEN AGAIN THIS MORNING I'M STRANDED. THIS IS GETTING OLD!

ALRIGHT I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA JK. AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION 2DOOR SOFT TOP. AND I HAVE NOTICED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHEN THERE IS WET CONDITIONS ON ANY CURVY ROAD THAT WHEN SLOWING DOWN TO TAKE A CURVE TO THE RIGHT WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL ON THE TRANSMISSION WILL DOWN SHIFT AND CAUSE THE BACK TIRES TO SPIN AND LOSE TRACTION WHICH INTURN SENDS THE [XXX] END SIDEWAYS. AND IT DOES IT BOTH UP AND DOWN HILL AND PRETTY MUCH ONLY ON RIGHT TURNS THE PASSENGER SIDE WHICH PUTS THE DRIVER SIDE REAR END INTO THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC LANE A LITTLE. AND I TRULY BELIEVE IF IT WAS A YOUNG DRIVER OR ANYONE THAT HASN'T DROVE ANYTHING WILDLY BEFORE IN THERE LIFE IT COULD CAUSE A BAD ACCIDENT. BUT IF YOU TURN THE TRACTION CONTROL OFF IT DON'T DO IT IS BAD IF AT ALL. WHICH MAKES ME THINK IT'S WIRING OR THE COMPUTER AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM. I'VE HAD IT HAPPEN ON BACK ROADS AND MT ROADS EVEN TURN ON THE INTERSTATE RAMP. ANY ROAD WHERE YOU REMAIN IN MOTION WITH A DECENT CURVE TO THE RIGHT. ALOT ON THIS WINDING MT ROAD OVER THE RIDGE TO THE NEXT TOWN. IT'S CALLED JOPPA MOUNTAIN. AND IT SIDESTEPS WITH YOU THERE LIKE IT HAS ME QUITE A FEW TIMES, AND YOU ARE NOT ON YOUR GAME IT COULD GET REAL BAD REAL FAST BECAUSE THAT ROAD WINDS BACK AND FORTH ALL THE WAY UP AND BACK DOWN WITH STRAP DROP OFFS THAT YOU WOULD BE PRAYING FOR A TREE TO STOP YOU. ALWAYS WHEN TURNING RIGHT AND SLOWING DOWN WITH THE TRACTION CONTROL ON. PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMA

DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AND OUT OF NOWHERE THE JEEP STARTED TO DEATH WOBBLE UNTIL I SLOWED TO A STOP THAN WAS ABLE TO DRIVE AGAIN

I'VE EXPERIENCED THE 'DEATH WOBBLE' AROUND SEVEN TIMES SINCE PURCHASING THE VEHICLE IN FEBRUARY OF LAST YEAR, MAINLY ON SECONDARY ROADS. I TOOK IT TO TWO LOCAL MECHANICS WHO FOUND NO ISSUES. IT HAD YET TO HAVE HAPPENED AT HIGH SPEEDS UNTIL YESTERDAY WHEN I WAS ON INTERSTATE 81 (WHICH I DRIVE DAILY-SPEED LIMIT 70) AND HIT THE BEGINNING OF A BRIDGE AND THE JEEP SHOOK SO VIOLENTLY THAT I HAD TO PULL INTO THE EMERGENCY LANE, BRING THE VEHICLE TO A COMPLETE STOP, AND TURN MY HAZARD LIGHTS ON. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AT THIS POINT. I FEAR NOT ONLY MY SAFETY, BUT THE SAFETY OF OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD AROUND ME. I HAVE READ ONLINE THAT THIS IS COMMON AND WAS CONSIDERED TO BE A MANUFACTURING FAULT AND THAT RECALLS WERE BEING ISSUED, BUT WHEN I SEARCHED MY VIN NUMBER, NO RECALLS WERE FOUND.

LIGHTS FLASH ON AND OFF, DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK WHILE VEHICLE IS PARKED AND NOT RUNNING, KEYS ARE NO WHERE NEAR VEHICLE. BATTERY COMPLETELY DEAD. REPLACED BATTERY. NOT MADE AWARE OF TIPM ISSUE. NEW BATTERY COMPLETELY DRAINED. HAD TOWED TO MECHANIC. STARTER, ALTERNATOR, TRANSMISSION, ETC ALL CHECKED AND NO ISSUES. HAD TO DROVE SEVERAL HOURS TO DEALERSHIP TO CONFIRM/FIX TIPM.

SINCE I PURCHASED THIS JEEP I HAVE HAD STARTING ISSUES WHERE THE JEEP JUST CLICKS AND WON'T TURN OVER. HAVE REPLACED THE BATTERY, STARTER AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. SOMETIMES TAKES 5 - 8 ATTEMPTS AND SOMETIMES IT STARTS OTHER TIMES NOTHING. HAVE GOTTEN IT TOWED AND GOTTEN IT TO THE MECHANIC AND IT STARTS WHEN ARRIVED AT MECHANIC. THIS IS FRUSTRATING ON ALL ACCOUNTS AND TO ALL INVOLVED.

WHEN FILLING UP AT THE GAS STATION, THE FUEL PUMP WILL KICK OFF AND A SECOND LATER GAS COMES FLYING OUT OF THE TANK AND HITS ME, MY JEEP AND GOES ALL OVER THE GROUND.

HOT OIL WARNING STARTED FLASHING AND DINGING. WAS DIAGNOSED WITH A TRANSMISSION ISSUE. SOME ONLINE SEARCHES INDICATED THAT SOMETIMES ITS JUST A BAD SENSOR BUT LOOKS LIKE THERE MAY BE A TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN IT OCCURRED BUT THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE NEVER WENT ABOVE HALF WAY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE DOORS LOCKED AND UNLOCKED INDEPENDENTLY, WITH THE HORN BLARING AND HEADLAMPS FLASHING WITH THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS ACTIVATED WITHOUT WARNING, OR DRIVER INPUT. THE CONTACT BECAME AWARE THAT THE FAILURE WAS DUE TO THE FAILURE OF THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM). THE CONTACT STATED THAT TO PREVENT THE FAILURE, THE NEGATIVE BATTERY CABLE WAS DISCONNECTED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 115,000.

WITH VEHICLE EITHER NOT RUNNING OR RUNNING. RANDOM EVENTS WHERE HORN BLASTS CONTINUOUSLY, WIPERS TURN ON, WASHER FLUID SPRAYS. OPENING DOOR HAS CAUSED HORN TO SOUND, WITH ENGINE OFF.*DT*JB*DT CONSUMER STATED DEALERSHIP DID NOT GIVE FAULTY TIPM DIAGNOSIS.*JB

I WAS TRAVELING AT AROUND 45MPH REAR ENDED A STOPPED VEHICLE ON THE FREEWAY AND MY AIRBAG DID NOT DEPLOY. I FRACTURED MY HAND. *TR

THE VEHICLE "POPS" OUT OF 1ST GEAR CONSTANTLY. I'VE SEEN HUNDREDS OF EXAMPLES POSTED IN FORUMS WHERE THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH MANY OF THESE MODELS. ITS DANGEROUS WHEN TRYING TO START FROM A STANDSTILL WITH TRAFFIC BEHIND YOU AND YOU CAN'T EVEN USE FIRST GEAR TO MOVE OUT OF THE WAY. I'VE HAD PEOPLE ALMOST HIT ME BECAUSE OF THIS!!..AGAIN, THIS IS A WELL KNOWN ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED...AT FIRST I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS JUST ME....BUT AFTER DOING HOURS OF RESEARCH (HUNDREDS OF POSTS ABOUT THIS EXACT PROBLEM ON LINE) AND EVEN HAVING OTHER PEOPLE DRIVE MY VEHICLE, WE ALL AGREE SOMETHING IS WRONG..

VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AT FUEL PUMP WITH THE FUEL TANK HALF FULL. BEGAN REFUELING AND HAD AN IMMEDIATE BACK SPLASH /SPEWING OF FUEL. ESTIMATE AT LEAST A HALF GALLON WAS SPILLED ONTO THE VEHICLE, THE GROUND AND ON MY PERSON.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A BLACKTOP ROAD AND MY PASSENGER SIDE AIRBAG DEPLOYED. THE AIRBAG WAS REPLACED IN NOV 2018. I NEVER HIT ANYTHING. MY INSURANCE COMPANY CAME OUT AND INVESTIGATED THE INCIDENT

SINCE 2017, EVERY TIME I PUMP FUEL INTO THE CAR AT GAS STATION, THE PUMP OVERFLOWS AND SPILLS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR, THE GROUND AND THEN MY FEET AND HANDS BECAUSE I HAVE TO STEP IN THE PUDDLE AND PUT THE GAS CAP ON. I MOVED TO TN FROM CA IN 2016 AND I HAVE BEEN THINKING THAT IT THE SHELL GAS PUMPS HERE IN TN THAT WERE CAUSING IT...AS IF THEY WERE OLD OR NOT UP TO SOME SORT OF "CA STANDARD" OR SOMETHING. HOWEVER, AFTER THIS PROBLEM JUST HAPPENED TO MY PREGNANT WIFE WITH OUR 2 YEAR OLD IN THE CAR, I DECIDED TO CHECK A JEEP FORUM AND SEE IF ANYONE ELSE IS HAVING THIS PROBLEM. LO AND BEHOLD, THIS APPEARS TO BE A SERIOUS ISSUE DATING BACK 10 YEARS TO A 2010 FORUM I FOUND. URL: HTTPS://WWW.JEEPFORUM.COM/FORUM/F176/HAVE-FUEL-SPILL-PROBLEMS-LIKE-MANY-US-SUBMIT-COMPLAINT-FORCE-RECALL-974337/ THIS VIDEO SHOWS EXACTLY WHAT HAPPENS: HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?TIME_CONTINUE=7&V=HAE5HT-_Y48&FEATURE=EMB_LOGO THIS IS A SERIOUS RISK OF FIRE AND SAFETY...FOR NOT JUST ME, BUT ANY PATRON AT A GAS STATION WHO IS EITHER THERE WITH ME OR DRIVES UP TO MY PUMP AFTER ME. THE FUMES ARE NOW ON OUR FEET AND THEN IN THE CAR...THEN WE GO HOME OR WHERE AND SPREAD THAT GASOLINE FUMES AROUND EVERYWHERE WE GO. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE AND I'M VERY CONCERNED WHY THERE IS NO RECALL ON THIS GIVEN THE EASE TO DIAGNOSE THIS PROBLEM WITH ONE SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH. I'M VERY CONCERNED...

FIRE VEHICLE*DT*JB *DT*JB

WHEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AT ABOUT 60 MPH THE FRONTEND STARTED TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. I TOOK IT IN TO MY MECHANIC AND HE DID $1400.00 IN REPAIRS. IT SEEMED TO HELP BUT THEN 6 MONTHS LATTER IT STARTED AGAIN.I TOOK IT BACK TO THE MECHANIC THAT DID THE FIRST REPAIRS AND HE SAID HE COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG AT THIS TIME.

WHEN REFUELING AT ANY GAS STATION WHEN THE TANK REACHES A CERTAIN POINT THE GASOLINE COMES BACK OUT SPRAYING OVER THE SIDE OF VEHICLE AND ON ME LEAVING GASOLINE ON THE GROUND AND MYSELF COVERED IN GAS

TIPM PROBLEMS FROM THE RESEARCH I'VE DONE. CAR GOES HAYWIRE! HORN GOES ON RANDOMLY AND STAYS ON EVEN WHEN DRIVING! WIPERS GO ON AND OFF RANDOMLY EVEN WHEN I TRY TO USE THE WIPER SWITCH TO CONTROL IT, NOTHING HAPPENS. WIPER FLUID GOES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY EVEN WHEN NOT CONTROLLED BY SWITCH. DOORS LOCK AND UNLOCK RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING EVEN WHEN NOT USING THE REMOTE. ALARM GOES OFF WHILE DRIVING WITH THE HORN. ALL DASHBOARD LIGHTS RANDOMLY FLASH ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. ALL THESE WEIRD EVENTS USUALLY OCCUR AT THE SAME TIME OR RANDOMLY BY THEMSELVES. MOSTLY HAPPENS WHEN DRIVING OR WHEN TRYING TO INITIALLY UNLOCK AND ENTER THE VEHICLE FOR USE.

FUEL SPLASH BACK ON REFUELING.

I'VE CALLED MY LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP ABOUT THESE OPEN RECALLS FOR OVER A YEAR NUMEROUS TIMES THEY TELL ME THEY WILL CALL WHEN PARTS ARE IN. NO CALLS ET. THIS IS MY ONLY CAR TO DRIVE THEY NO THAT. CAN'T BELIEVE THIS!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHEN THE DRIVER DROVE AT 50 TO 55 MPH AND THE VEHICLE HIT A BUMP ON THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE WOULD WOBBLE OUT OF CONTROL. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO SLOW DOWN AND CONTROL THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED SEVERAL TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO THE DEALER TO HAVE A DIAGNOSTIC PERFORMED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER PROVIDED THE CONTACT CASE NUMBER [XXX]. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. *DT *TP 'PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'

I EXPERIENCE THE "DEATH WOBBLE" DAILY. IT STARTS AROUND 45 MPH AND CONTINUES UNTIL I STOP. IT MAKES THE JEEP SHAKE AND HARD TO CONTROL. THE SHAKING IS SO BAD, IT WILL CAUSE DRINKS TO GET THROWN FROM THE CUPHOLDER. IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE OVER THE PAST YEAR OR SO.

DEATH WOBBLE- HIT BUMP AND STEERING WHEEL SHAKES UNCONTROLLABLY ! EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. I HAVE REPLACED ALMOST ALL SUSPENSION COMPONENTS-$1600 AND IT HAS HAPPENED 4 MORE TIMES. THERE IS NOTHING THAT I CAN DO ONCE IT STARTS-ALMOST GOT RUN OVER BY A SEMI. IT HAPPENS TO ALLOT OF PEOPLE. CHECK THE INTERNET.

WITH NO WARNING WHILE DRIVING THE JEEP IT JUST SHUT OFF. NO STEERING, NO BRAKES. WOULDN'T START BACK UP AFTER. WE BROUGHT IT TO THE REPAIR SHOP AND THE MOTOR IS TOTALLY CEASED AND NEEDS A NEW MOTOR.

WHEN GOING OVER 35 THE WHEEL STARTS TO WOBBLE LIKE THE DEALTH WOBBLE. HAS A LOT OF LACK IN STEERING WHEEL.. WHEN CONTROL CONTROL IS ON IT GOING TO 5 RPM AND SHIFTING FUNNY..

NOTIFIED DURING JULY 2019 OF 2 RECALLS (S43 AND S33). ON 7/12/2019 S43 WAS COMPLETED. S33 PARTS WERE ORDERED. THE FIRST ETA WAS IN SEPTEMBER. THAT WAS CANCELED DUE TO LACK OF PARTS. I HAVE BROUGHT THIS TO THE ATTENTION OF THE DEALER AND TO "ALL STAR DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM" BUT THERE IS STILL NO DATE AND WAS TOLD THERE IS A LARGE BACK ORDER LIST AND NO KNOWN DATE AS TO WHEN THE PART WILL BE AVAILABLE. THE RECALL NOTICE SAID "IT IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT TO TAKE STEPS NOW TO REPAIR YOUR VEHICLE TO ENSURE THE SAFETY OF YOU AND YOUR PASSENGERS." I HAVE TAKEN THESE STEPS. CHRYSLER HAS PUT IN AN PART ORDER AND CANNOT GIVE ME A DATE AS TO WHEN THIS CAN BE FIXED. THE SIZE OF THIS BACKLOG INDICATES THERE ARE MANY INSTALLATIONS NEEDED.

STEERING WHEEL IS LOST GOES ALL OVER THE ROAD SHIFTS BAD RPM GOES UP TO 5 HOT OIL LIGHTS COMES ON

MANUAL TRANSMISSION POPS OUT OF FIRST GEAR WHEN IN MOTION. SERVICE BULLETIN (21-001-10) DEALER WON'T REPAIR. FLAGLER CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP, PALM COAST FLORIDA.

TRANSMISSION OVERHEATS... CHRYSLER WON'T FIX THE ACTUAL PROBLEM..THEY JUST RECALLED THE VEHICLE TO HAVE A DUMMY LIGHT INSTALLED ON YOUR DASH..TURN YOUR VEHICLE OFF AND LET IT COOL DOWN..BY THAT TIME WHEN IT OVER HEATS..IT'S ALREADY JUNK..42RLE ARE JUNK! WE THE PEOPLE ARE TRYING TO FIX AND DIAGNOSIS THERE MISTAKE. BETWEEN THE WIRING AND THE TRANSMISSION..IT'S HELL...YOUR EITHER GOING TO BURN BECAUSE OF FAULTY WIRES THEY NEVER DID A RECALL ON AND IT'S ALL OVER THE INTERNET...SAME PROBLEMS. OR YOUR GOING TO KEEP THROWING A BUNCH OF MONEY INTO A POS THAT WILL NEVER TRULY BE FIXED! THROWS ALL KINDS OF CODES BECAUSE OF THE TRANNY OVERHEATING. IF YOU INSTALL A AFTERMARKET COOLER TO TRY TO FIX THE OVERHEATING ISSUE IT VOIDS YOUR WARRANTY...WHICH IS NO GOOD ANYWAYS..BECAUSE THE DON'T EVEN STAND BEHIND THAT! HOPE THEY GO BANKRUPT 😁

I AM EXPERIENCING A RECURRING ISSUE THAT APPEARS TO BE THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE (TIPM). EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS, THE ENTIRE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM GOES HAYWIRE, FOR ABOUT 3 MINUTES AND THEN IS FINE. IN RESEARCHING THIS, I AM FINDING THAT IT WAS A COMMON PROBLEM ON JEEP VEHICLES OF THAT TIME PERIOD. IT MOST RECENTLY OCCURRED TODAY, ALTHOUGH IT HAS HAPPENED FOR ABOUT THE LAST 2 YEARS, SINCE SHORTLY AFTER I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V290000 (AIR BAGS) EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR REPAIR. THE CONTACT RECEIVED THE RECALL NOTIFICATION IN MARCH OF 2019. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND BEEPED. THE CONTACT SPOKE WITH HILLER JEEP RAM DODGE CHRYSLER (635 MILL STREET, MARION, MA 02738, (508) 538-1395) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE PART WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,555. PARTS DISTRIBUTION DISCONNECT.

IT HAPPENS RANDOMLY BUT THE WIPERS, WASHER FLUID, LIGHTS INCLUDING REVERSE LIGHTS AND HORN CAME ON AND WOULD NOT TURN OFF. ENGINE WOULD NOT SHUT OFF. AFTER DOING A LITTLE BIT OF RESEARCH IT SEEMS LIKE THERE ARE LOTS OF PEOPLE AFFECTED BY THIS AND THEY ALL CONCLUDED THAT IT WAS THE TIPM. IT USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND I WOULD SAY IT HAPPENS EVERY OTHER WEEK.
