2008 Jeep Wrangler complaints

WENT TO GO FILL UP THE JEEP, IT FILLED UP THE PUMP CLICKED THAT IT WAS DONE AND THEN IT VIOLENTLY OVERFLOWED COVERING ME AND MY PRECIOUS JEEP IN GASOLINE.

TURNED LEFT AND THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT WENT OFF. AND NOW CONTINUES TO GO OFF AND DING EVERY COUPLE OF MINUTES AS I AM DRIVING. SEEMS TO HAPPEN MOST OF THE TIME WHEN TURNING LEFT BUT TENDS TO HAPPEN WHEN TURNING RIGHT AS WELL.

THE AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. THIS OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING OFF ROAD ON SAND AND WHILE TURNING. DEALER INDICATED THE FIX WAS GOING TO COST OVER $500 DOLLARS. THEY INDICATED SOME FAULTY WIRING.

IN THREE SEPARATE INSTANCES WHEEL STUDS HAVE BUSTED OFF THE BACK TIRES. 1ST TIME ALL 5 BROKE. 2ND TIME - 2 BROKE AND THIS 3RD TIME - 1 BROKE. JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE IS OF NO HELP WITH THE PROBLEM. WE HAVE TO PUT ON NEW STUDS AND LUGS EVERY TIME AND IF THE TIRE COMES FULLY OFF, THIS COULD CAUSE A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. TWICE THE JEEP WAS IN MOTION WHEN IT HAPPENED AND ONCE WHILE DURING A TIRE ROTATION, TAKING OFF A LUG BY HAND THE WHEEL STUD SNAPPED IN HALF.

HEADLIGHTS CONTINUE TO GO OUT. DAUGHTER HAS TO DRIVE HOME WITH FOG LIGHTS. ENGINE FAN COMES ON AND OFF. TOOK TO JEEP THEY SAID IT WAS A SHORT AND IT WORKED FOR A MONTH, SAME THING. AFTER RESEARCH IT APPEARS THE TIPM IS BAD, LOTS OF COMPLAINTS ETC. ONLINE REGARDING THIS ISSUE. THE LIGHTS HAVE GONE OFF WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, AND CITY STREET AND ALSO AFTER THE CAR WAS PARKED AT WORK ALL DAY. IT IS RANDOM. I HAVE TAPPED ON THE TIPM MODULE AND THEN TURNED ON THE LIGHTS AND THEY WORK AGAIN FOR A DAY OR TWO AND THEN GO OUT AGAIN. THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES SINCE DECEMBER 2015, THE LAST TIME WAS MARCH 5, 2016.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT COMES ON INTERMITTENTLY WHEN THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. I'VE BEEN TOLD THAT THE CLOCK SPRING IS WHAT IS CAUSING IT. THIS SAME PART HAS BEEN RECALLED ON THE RHD VEHICLE BUT NOT THE LHD. IVE BEEN TOLD THAT THIS COULD CAUSE THE AIRBAGS TO NOT DEPLOY IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH. I ALSO SEE THIS IS BECOMING A VERY COMMON PROBLEM ON THIS YEAR MODEL

TO DATE THIS IS THE 3RD TIME IN A YEAR I HAVE PARKED MY JEEP GOT OUT KEY IN HAND AND FOR NO APPARENT REASON MY HORN AND WIPERS HAVE GONE CRAZY HAD TO PULL BATTERY TERMINALS TO GET IT TO STOP AND NOW WILL NOT START BACK

TRAVELING DOWN ROAD, NOTICED AIR BAG LIGHT STAYING ON, ESP WOULDN'T WORK, HORN INOPERATIVE. CALLED JEEP DEALER AND THEY SAID TO COME IN FOR DIAGNOSIS AS THE AIR BAG LIGHT INDICATED A FAULT IN AIR BAG SYSTEM. TOOK TO DEALERS AND THEY HAD TO REPLACE CLOCK-SPRING WIRING HARNESS TO CURE PROBLEM. NOT IN WARRENTY PERIOD AND WHEN CHRYSLER WAS CONTACTED THEY WOULD NOT ACCEPT COST AS IT WAS NOT UNDER RECALL. I THEREFORE HAD TO PAY FOR REPAIR. THE DEALER SAID TO KEEP INVOICE AS IT MAY LATER BE A SAFETY RECALL. IT SHOULD BE AS I WAS TOLD THE PROBLEM COULD CAUSE THE AIR BAG SYSTEM TO MALFUNCTION. BEING IN THE JEEP COMMUNITY I KNOW OF THOUSANDS OF JEEP WRANGLERS HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. COPY OF INVOICE ATTACHED.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT OF MY 2008 JEEP WRANGER INTERMITTENTLY COMES ON DURING DRIVING AND THE HORN DOESN'T WORK. LIKELY A BAD CLOCKSPRING.

TAKATA RECALL: JEEP BUILT JAN. 24, 2008, AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN AN ISSUE FOR OVER A YEAR - HORN HAS ALWAYS BEEN SPOTTY BUT ALWAYS LUCKY AT INSPECTION UNTIL RECENTLY. SO, AIRBAG LIGHT DINGING/ON AND NOW HORN NOT WORKING DUE TO CLOCKSPRING. RECALL RESEARCH SHOWED TO BE ELIGIBLE ITEM BUT DEALERSHIP AND CHRYSLER RECALL 800 # FOLKS SAID THIS JEEP DIDN'T QUALIFY. DAMAGE WILL BE GETTING CLOCKSPRING REPLACED BY DEALERSHIP FOR MORE THAN $500.

WHENEVER I FILL THE GAS TANK IT OVERFLOWS AFTER THE PUMP TURNS OFF. IT HAPPENS AT ALL GAS STATIONS. IT HAS HAPPENED SINCE THE JEEP WAS ABOUT 3 MONTHS OLD. THE DEALER TOLD ME IT WOULDN'T BE WARRANTIED DUE TO MY USING THE VEHICLE OFF ROAD SO I HAVE GIVEN UP TRYING. I MOSTLY DON'T FILL IT ALL THE WAY ANYMORE. BUT OCCASIONALLY I FORGET AND GAS SPILLS ON THE GROUND CAUSING A SERIOUS FIRE HAZARD AT THE GAS STATION AS WELL AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE. AFTER LEARNING THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM, I HAVE TO ASK WHY THIS ISN'T A RECALL YET?

IN 2009 MY TIPM FAILED AND I EXPERIENCED THE 'POSSESSED JEEP' CONDITION WHERE EVERYTHING TURNED ON (LIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS, HORN, RADIO BLASTING WITH NO DISPLAY). I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY REPLACED FREE OF CHARGE (UNDER 5 YEAR WARRANTY). IN 2012 MY REAR BRAKE CALIPERS SEIZED ON BOTH THE PASSENGER AND DRIVER SIDE, THEY WERE GLOWING CHERRY-RED AFTER A 1 HOUR COMMUTE INTO WORK, PERFECT TO START A FIRE IF I HAD PULLED INTO A GAS STATION WITH SOME GAS SPILLED ON THE GROUND OR SOMETHING. I GOT AFTER-MARKET CALIPERS BECAUSE THE GUY AT AUTO ZONE SAID THAT HE HAD SEVERAL CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE THAT REPLACED IT WITH FACTORY CALIPERS AND THEY FAILED WITHIN 40000 MILES, THEY WENT WITH AFTER-MARKET CALIPERS AND NEVER HAD A PROBLEM, I HAVE NOT HAD A PROBLEM SINCE MYSELF. WELL NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN MY HORN, FRONT PASSENGER PARKING LAMP/TURN SIGNAL STOPPED WORKING. THERE ARE NO BLOWN FUSES OR UNHOOKED WIRES, EVERYTHING IS STOCK (I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE BRAND NEW). AT THIS SAME TIME, MY PASSENGER SEAT KEEPS COMING UNLATCHED AND FLYING FORWARD AND BACK (AS IF SOMEONE WERE TRYING TO ENTER THE BACK SEAT). I CAN PUSH THE SEAT BACK INTO POSITION, BUT IT WILL FLY FORWARD ALL BY ITSELF AT RANDOM. THIS STARTED IMMEDIATELY WITH THE HORN AND PASSENGER PARKING LAMP ISSUE. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND PRESENTS A CHOKING HAZARD, ESPECIALLY IF SOMEONE IS SITTING IN THE SEAT WITH THE SEAT BELT FASTENED. SINCE THE HORN HAS STOPPED WORKING, I AM CONCERNED THAT MY AIR-BAG MAY NOT DEPLOY (CLOCK-SPRING ISSUE) OR

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR STARTED DISPLAYING ISSUES WITH THE AIR BAG. THE DASH IS INTERMITTENTLY DISPLAYING A AIRBAG LIGHT. THIS CONTINUALLY TURNS ON AND OFF. I HAVE RESEARCHED SOLUTIONS FOR THIS AND LEARNED THAT JEEP WRANGLER 2007 HAS RECALLED THIS SPECIFIC PART BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE REGARDING SUBSEQUENT YEARS. I FEAR THAT THIS MAY POSE A SAFETY CONCERN AS IT IS A DIRECT ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG.

CLOCKSPRING WIRING IN THE LHD SIDE AIR BAG CIRCUIT FAILED CAUSING AIRBAG INDICATOR TO TURN ON. PAID AROUND $700 TAX TO HAVE THIS DEFECTIVE PART REPLACED (((

WHILE TRAVELING ON A HIGHWAY AT 50 MPH, I HIT SOME ROUGH ROAD AND SOME SHALLOW POTHOLES. FOR THE FIRST TIME, I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN MY JEEP SUDDENLY SHOOK VIOLENTLY. I STEPPED ON THE BREAK AND PULLED OVER ON THE SHOULDER AND STOPPED. THEN I DROVE AGAIN AND THE JEEP WAS JUST FINE. AFTER RESEARCHING ON THE PROBLEM, FROM THEN ON, I TRIED TO AVOID POTHOLES OR ROUGH ROADS AND SLOW DOWN MY SPEED TO 40 MPH ON A FREEWAY TO AVOID THE SO CALLED "DEATH WOBBLE" UNTIL I HAD MONEY TO HAVE THE CAR FIXED. THE DEALER CHANGED ALL DEFECTIVE PARTS INCLUDING STRUTS AND STABILIZER AND COSTED ME MORE THAN $700.

I HAVE NO SAFETY HORN, NO AIRBAGS, NO CRUISE CONTROL AND TIRE PRESURE MONITORE GIVES FAULTY READING. ALL BECAUSE OF AND DUE TO A BAD CLOCK SPRING UNDER THE STEERING WHEEL.

CLOCK SPRING FAILED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED.

WHILE DRIVING HOME LAST NIGHT DURING A SNOW STORM AT APPROX. 50 MPH THE ENGINE STALLED AND THE LIGHTS STARTED GOING ON AND OFF. THANKFULLY I WAS ABLE TO MAKE IT TO THE HIGHWAY SHOULDER AND STOP. I ATTEMPTED TO RESTART THE ENGINE BUT IT WOULD NOT (THE LIGHT CONTINUED TO FLICKER ON AND OFF SPORADICALLY, THEY FINALLY STOPPED AFTER I TURNED THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS ON. I TRIED TO RESTART THE ENGINE AND IT STARTED BUT THE LIGHTS STARTED THEIR ON AND OFF DANCE AGAIN SO I WENT THROUGH THE PROCESS OF SHUTTING IT OFF AND MANAGED TO GET THE LIGHT TO STOP BY TURNING THE EMERGENCY FLASHERS OFF THEN ON AGAIN. AFTER APPROX. 15 TO 20 MINUTE I TRIED A RESTART AND IT STARTED WITH NO SYMPTOM'S SO I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE HOME WITH NO FURTHER INCIDENT.

CAR PARKED AND STATIONARY AT HOME. OPENED THE REAR DOOR (WITH KEYS IN HAND, NOT IN IGNITION) AND THE FRONT WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED GOING AND THE RUNNING LIGHTS CAME ON. AFTER 1-2 MINUTES THE HORN STARTED BLOWING AND THE HEATER BLOWER MOTOR CAME ON. PUTTING THE KEY IN IGNITION OR NOT MADE NO DIFFERENCE. PULLED THE POSITIVE TERMINAL OFF OF THE BATTERY AND EVERYTHING STOPPED. RECONNECTED THE POSITIVE TERMINAL AND NOTHING UNUSUAL HAPPENED. TRIED STARTING THE CAR TO TEST AND THE KEY ACTIVATED THE DASH BUT WOULD NOT START THE ENGINE BUT NORMAL DASH LIGHTS CAME ON. WHILE TRYING DIFFERENT THINGS (SHIFT TO NEUTRAL, PARK, ON, OFF, ETC) THE WIPERS (FRONT AND REAR), BLOWER, RUNNING LIGHTS AND HORN ALL CAME BACK ON AND THE ENGINE STARTED WITHOUT TURNING THE KEY FROM RUN TO START. WIPERS AND BLOWER SPEED CHANGED WITHOUT TOUCHING ANY CONTROLS. BLOWER SPEED COULD BE CHANGED THROUGH SWITCH, BUT WHEN BLOWER SWITCH TURNED TO OFF, BLOWER WENT TO HIGH SPEED. PULLED POSITIVE TERMINAL AND NEGATIVE TERMINALS FROM BATTERY WITH NO CHANGE ' EVERYTHING STILL RUNNING. HAD TO PULL WIRES OFF THE ALTERNATOR TO STOP EVERYTHING. THE HEATER BLOWER HAD STOPPED ON THIS VEHICLE A YEAR OR SO AGO AND AFTER TESTING AND REPLACING ALL BLOWER PARTS WITH NEW PARTS IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE TIPM WAS AT FAULT. TIPM HAS NOT YET BEEN REPLACED (BUT WILL BE). IF THIS HAD HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN IN MOTION, IT WOULD HAVE (AT THE VERY LEAST) PANICKED THE DRIVER. I AM GOING TO RECONNECT THE BATTERY AND ATTEMPT TO V

ON A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DASHBOARD, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT FLASHES ON EVERY OTHER MINUTE WITH A CHIME, AN INDICATION THAT THERE IS SOMETHING MALFUNCTIONING OR INTERFERING WITH THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS. THE VEHICLE ALSO NO LONGER HAS FUNCTIONING SPEED CONTROL. THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE AND CONCERN FOR MANY 2007-2012 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) OWNERS, INCLUDING MYSELF, AND HAS BEEN SHOWN TIME AND TIME AGAIN TO BE CAUSED BY A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING WITHIN THE VEHICLE'S STEERING WHEEL. THE FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS THE A SAFELY CONCERN DUE TO A POTENTIAL AIRBAG FAILURE IN THE 2009 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DURING AN ACCIDENT.

WHEN PUMPING FUEL WHILE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY THE FUEL OVERFLOWS. MUST PUMP IN SMALL AMOUNTS SLOWLY TO KEEP OVERFLOW TO A MINIMUM; HOWEVER, OVERFLOW STILL OCCURS ESPECIALLY AT THE END OF PUMPING WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. OVERFLOW SQUIRTS OUT AND SOUNDS LIKE GARGLING WHEN FILLING WITH FUEL.

WITHOUT WARNING ... HORN STARTS BLOWING, WINDSHIELD WASHER COMES ON, LIGHTS FLASH, DOOR LOCKS WON'T WORK, KEY SWITCH OFF DOESN'T STOP THE PROBLEM, SO FAR HAVE ABLE TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND OPEN THE HOOD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY. RECONNECTING THE BATTERY SOMETIMES WORKS BUT THE HEATER/AC STOPS WORKING... THIS SITUATION IS A REAL ROAD HAZARD!!! AFTER AWHILE THINGS WORK OK UNTIL IT REPEATS. VERY DANGEROUS CAR TO BE ON THE ROAD. JEEP SERVICE PEOPLE RESPOND BY SAYING THAT THAT THEY FIND NOTHING WRONG! WELL SURE, THE EVENT IS OVER WHEN WE ARE ABLE TO BRING THE VEHICLE IN TO BE "FIXED"! BASIS FOR A CLASS ACTION SUIT FOR SURE! VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY AND STATIONARY WHEN THIS HAS HAPPENED.

FAILED CLOCKSPRING AT 104,000 MILES. INTERMITTED AIRBAG LIGHT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER. AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE, FUEL SPEWED OUT OF THE FILLER NECK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

AIRBAG LIGHT WOULD COME ON THEN OFF REPEATEDLY, WHILE STATIONARY AND IN MOTION. TOOK INTO DEALERSHIP DIAGNOSED AS "CLOCK SPRING FAILED".

ODOMETER WILL NOT FUNCTION. COMES ON FOR AWHILE, SOMETIMES BLINKS AND OTHER TIMES WILL NOT WORK. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP AND INDICATED INTERNAL FAILURE NEED TO ORDER CLUSTER AND REPLACE.

VEHICLE HORN STOPPED WORKING. NO ACCIDENT OR EVENT OCCURRED. POSSIBLE MALFUNCTION. TRIED TO USE THE HORN WHILE IN MOTION ON THE ROAD, NO HORN SOUND WHEN PRESSING INTO THE STEERING WHEEL. VEHICLE HORN DOES SOUND WHEN LOCKING THE VEHICLE AND WHEN SETTING OFF THE "PANIC" ALARM. THIS LEADS ME TO BELIEVE THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE CLOCK SPRING. TOOK VEHICLE TO MAINTENANCE SHOP, STAFF SAID THE HORN IS IN GOOD WORKING ORDER, BUT THE CLOCK SPRING IS LIKELY "BAD".

MY AIRBAG LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY ON AND MY CRUISE CONTROL NO LONGER WORKS. I AM A LHD 2008 WRANGLER AND AS I HAVE SEEN ACROSS THE INTERNET THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM. WHY IS THERE NO RECALL ON THE LHD 2008 WRANGLERS WHEN THERE IS FOR THE RHD AND 2007 LHD WRANGLERS. THE SAME CLOCK SPRINGS ARE USED IN ALL THESE VEHICLES AND THEY ARE FAULTY ACROSS THE BOARD. THIS NEEDS TO BE A RECALL AS MY AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IF I GET INTO AN ACCIDENT. CHRYSLER IS RESPONSIBLE AND SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THIS ISSUE IN MY MODEL YR AND LHD. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I AM SITTING, DRIVE OR WHATEVER THE AIRBAG LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON AS SOON AS I START THE ENGINE AND MY CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT AND CHIME RANDOMLY TURNS ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING UNDER ALL CONDITIONS.

I OWN A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER THAT HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING THE 'DEATH WOBBLE' MORE FREQUENTLY. THE CAUSE FOR CONCERN FIRST HAPPENED (2) YEARS AGO AFTER HITTING A POTHOLE ON THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK IT IN FOR INSPECTION AND MAINTENANCE. THE MECHANIC TOLD ME IT WAS A LOOSE STEERING STABILIZER BAR. ABOUT A YEAR OR SO AFTER THE REPAIR, MY WRANGLER HAS BEEN EXPERIENCING THE 'DEATH WOBBLE' MORE FREQUENTLY. IT SEEMS TO HAPPEN WHEN I'M DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AND HIT SOME SIGNIFICANT BUMP OR POTHOLE. I HAVE TO SLOW DOWN TO ROUGHLY 40 MPH FOR THE VIOLENT SHAKING TO STOP. THEN, I CAN ACCELERATE BACK TO NORMAL SPEED. IT CAN BE REAL DANGEROUS WHEN OTHER PEOPLE ARE CLOSE BEHIND ME AND I'M FORCED TO APPLY THE BRAKES TO DROP MY SPEED BY ROUGHLY 30 MPH. I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO KEEP TAKING THE WRANGLER IN FOR MORE REPAIRS, ESPECIALLY ONE THAT SEEMS TO HAPPEN PERIODICALLY. THOUGHTS?

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEAT SHIELD THAT WAS LOCATED BETWEEN THE MUFFLER AND THE REAR SUBFRAME SEPARATED FROM THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT INDICATED THAT THE STEEL BOLTS USED TO SECURE THE HEAT SHIELD CAUSED THE FAILURE DUE TO OXIDATION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT EXAMINED BY A MECHANIC AND THE FAILURE WAS NOT REPAIRED.

GAS TANKS OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLING TANK.

EXPERIENCING WHAT HAS BEEN CALLED "DEATH WOBBLE." VIOLENT SHAKING AND UNABLE TO SAFELY DRIVE ON HWY. IF YOU HIT A BUMP GOING OVER 55 YOU WILL MOST LIKELY EXPERIENCE THIS AND CAN ONLY STOP TO REGAIN CONTROL. THIS MAY BE A DEADLY PROBLEM! HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE PURCHASING THIS JEEP IN JULY OF 2015 AND WE'VE ONLY HAD IT 3 MONTHS. NO DEALER SUPPORT OR HELP ON THE PROBLEM AFTER FIRST ATTEMPT TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE.

AFTER MANY LONG ROAD TRIPS THE ENGINE ALWAYS SEEMS TO SMELL SLIGHTLY HOT. I WAS ASSURED IT WAS JUST BECAUSE OF LONG DISTANCES. THIS PAST WEEKEND AFTER A LONG ROAD TRIP, I PARKED MY CAR IN THE GARAGE, AND LATER THE ENGINE BURST INTO FLAMES WRECKING NOT ONLY THE JEEP BUT ALSO THE HOUSE IT WAS PARKED IN.
