TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 83,237.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND A WARNING CHIME SOUNDED. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT WAS AWARE OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V290000 (AIR BAGS), BUT THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 63,000.
GASOLINE WILL SHOOT OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE WHEN FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH GAS WHILE MANUALLY PUMPING OR USING THE AUTO SHUT-OFF OF THE PUMP HANDLE. IT OCCURS ON ALMOST EVERY FILL-UP.
SRS WARNING LAMP ILLUMINATED WITH ACCOMPANYING OCCASIONAL CHIME WARNING. THIS OCCURS ANYTIME THE VEHICLE IS MOVING AT ANY SPEED REGARDLESS OF STEERING WHEEL POSITION, MOVEMENT OR VEHICLE DIRECTION.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE OPERATING THE VEHICLE, THE AIR BAG SENSOR LIGHT WAS CONSTANTLY ILLUMINATED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT ILLUMINATED. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD A DEFECTIVE CLOCK SPRING THAT NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE CONTACT REFERENCED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V176000 (AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 82,000.
2010 JEEP JK - WHILE DRIVING, PARTICULARLY AT LOW SPEEDS THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT IS CONSTANTLY FLASHING OR, GOING ON, THEN OFF, THEN ON, THEN OFF, ETC. EACH TIME WITH THE SOUND AND WARNING LIGHT. AT HIGHER SPEEDS, IT MOSTLY STAYS IN WARNING MODE BUT IF THE STEERING WHEEL IS TURNED AT ALL, IT WILL START TO FLASH. APPARENTLY THERE ARE RECALLS ON THE RHD JEEP JK AND SEVERAL OTHER 2007 - 2010 MODEL YEARS. I BELIEVE THERE ARE SEVERAL MORE VEHICLES INVOLVED THAN WHAT THEY ARE CLAIMING AND MINE SHOULD BE ONE OF THEM. I AM WORRIED THE AIRBAG MAY NOT WORK WHEN IT NEEDS TO.
WHEN PUMPING GAS THE GAS DOES NOT CLICK OFF AND GAS SPITS OUT ALL OVER ME AND THE JEEP. I JUST PURCHASED THIS USED FROM A FORD DEALER. I HAD THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH MY DODGE DURANGO THAT HAD A RECALL BY CHRYSLER. I CHECKED AND THERE IS NO RECALL ON THE 2010 JEEP WRANGLER BUT HAVE RESEARCHED AND IT SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEPS. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THEM BEFORE SOMEONE GETS HURT. I FILLED UP AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. I HAD OTHER PEOPLE PUMP THE GAS, INCLUDING THE MECHANIC FROM THE DEALERSHIP I PURCHASED THE JEEP AT. IT DID THE SAME THING EACH TIME. THE ONLY WAY TO AVOID IT IS TO NOT FILL UP WHICH DOES NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE HEADLIGHTS FAILED TO ILLUMINATE. THE FAILURE RECURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER, BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS UNKNOWN. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000.
WHEN FILLING UP WITH FUEL AT THE PUMP, THE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF ON THE PUMP WILL CLICK OFF AND THEN A LARGE AMOUNT OF FUEL WILL COME SPILLING BACK OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND. IT DOES THIS AT ALMOST EVERY FILL UP REGARDLESS OF THE TEMPERATURE, PUMP OR GAS STATION USED.
SYMPTOM WAS AIR BAG LIGHT SLOWLY FLASHING, SPECIFICALLY WHILE DRIVING. SOME OTHER SYMPTOMS FROM OTHERS ONLINE SPECIFY WHILE TURNING. DIAGNOSIS IS BAD CLOCK SPRING WITH REPAIRS NECESSARY. THIS HAS BEEN A DOCUMENTED ISSUE THAT CAUSED EXTENDED WARRANTY IN PAST YEARS' MODELS OF JEEP WRANGLER (2007) AND CAUSED A CHRYSLER ORDERED LETTER TO CUSTOMERS, BUT IT IS YET UNCOVERED IN OTHER YEARS, ALTHOUGH THERE IS DOCUMENTATION ONLINE OF THIS ISSUE BEING SEEN IN FUTURE YEARS' MODELS (INCLUDING MY 2010 MODEL).
THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATES INTERMITTENTLY. THE PROBLEM OCCURS ANYTIME THE VEHICLE IS IN OPERATION. THE DEALER PERFORMED A DIAGNOSIS AT MY COST AND FOUND THE CLOCK SPRING TO BE DEFECTIVE. SINCE THE VEHICLE HAS 99355 MILES THE WARRANTY WAS DECLINED. THE CASE NUMBER WAS 29098917.
AIRBAG LIGHT JUST CAME ON DUE TO DEFECTIVE CLOCKSPRING.
WHILE DRIVING THE AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND GOES OFF MULTIPLE TIMES. AFTER DIAGNOSIS I FOUND OUT THAT THE CLOCK SPRING IS AT FAULT AND THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE. WHY HASN'T THERE BEEN A RECALL? THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE RIGHT HAND DRIVE WRANGLERS BUT NO THE LEFT HAND DRIVE. WHY IS THIS? THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT I THINK NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED ASAP.
TIPM PROBLEM. CODE READER CODES ARE B10EC BLOWER MOTOR OVER CURRENT, B219A IGNITION START/ LOCK UNLOCK OVER CURRENT. SUGGESTED FIX, REPLACE TIPM. QUOTED FROM JEEP TO REPAIR IS $1100.00
MY WIFE PARKED OUR JEEP AT THE TOP OF DRIVEWAY. CAR WAS PLACED IN PARK AND SHE GOT OUT OF THE CAR. SHE WENT TO GET SOMETHING OUT OF THEN BACK SEAT AND COULD NOT OPEN THE DOORS. SHE REALIZED THE KEYS WERE IN THE IGNITION AND SHE SHUT THE CAR OFF AND PULLED OUT THE KEYS. WHEN SHE DID THIS, THE JEEP STARTED ROLLING DOWN THE DRIVEWAY DRAGGING HER ALONG. VEHICLE THREW HER AND RAN OVER BOTH LEGS AND HAD OTHER INTERNAL INJURIES AS WELL AS SEVERE CONCUSSION.
YESTERDAY WHILE TRAVELING WITH MY 2 YOUNG GRANDCHILDREN, I EXPERIENCED SOMETHING KNOWN AS "DEATH WOBBLE", A VIOLENT VIBRATION IN THE FRONT END. IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES YESTERDAY AND TWICE TODAY. ALL TIMES I WAS TRAVELING ON A FREEWAY AT AROUND 55 MPH. IT BEGAN TO WOBBLE AS I ENTERED A CURVE IN THE ROAD. I WAS LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE ABLE TO SLOW AND PULL TO THE SHOULDER EACH TIME. THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT STOP IS TO STOP THE VEHICLE. I'M ESPECIALLY CONCERNED BECAUSE THIS ALSO HAPPENED TO MY 2007 WRANGLER. WHY HAS JEEP NOT FIXED THIS PROBLEM? IT'S BOTH TERRIFYING AND EXPENSIVE TO FIX. I WILL NEVER PURCHASE ANOTHER JEEP.
WHEN REACHING SPEEDS OF 45MPH AND ABOVE THE STEERING WHEEL STARTS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY FROM LEFT TO RIGHT. WHEN THIS STARTED, A MECHANIC SAW NOTHING WRONG EXCEPT FOR A WORN OUT STEERING STABILIZER, SO HE REPLACED IT. THE PROBLEM PERSISTS, BUT NOW IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN I HIT A BUMP IN ROAD WHEN TRAVELING ABOVE 50MPH. I TOOK IT TO A SECOND MECHANIC AND HE INSTALLED AN AFTERMARKET TRACK BAR AND BALANCED THE WHEELS. THE PROBLEM IS STILL THERE. A SIMPLE INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS NOT AN UNCOMMON OCCURRENCE WITH JEEPS, YET THE MANUFACTURER HAS DONE NOTHING TO CORRECT IT. MY VEHICLE IS COMPLETELY STOCK, EXCEPT FOR THE TRACK BAR, AND CURRENTLY HAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000 MILES ON IT.
THIRD CLOCK SPRING REPLACED.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED SPORADICALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC. THE TECHNICIAN DIAGNOSED THAT THE CLOCK SPRING WAS DEFECTIVE AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 73,000.
LIKE MANY OTHERS THAT I HAVE SPOKEN WITH, I HAVE SEEN ON FORUMS, AND I HAVE SEEN ON SITES LIKE THIS, THE AIR BAG LIGHT INTERMITTENTLY CHIMES AND LIGHTS UP INDICATING THAT THE AIR BAG SYSTEM HAS MALFUNCTIONED AND WILL NOT DEPLOY IF NEEDED. I PREVIOUSLY HAD A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER, AND IT HAD THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. WHEN I TOOK IT INTO THE DEALER, THEY TOLD ME THAT THE CLOCK SPRING REQUIRED REPLACEMENT. I HAVE OWNED 2 WRANGLERS AND BOTH OF THEM HAVE HAD THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A COMMON ISSUE AND I FIND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT MY EXPERIENCE WITH THIS CLOCK SPRING ISSUE IS COINCIDENCE. FROM WHAT I UNDERSTAND, RECALLS HAVE BEEN ISSUED FOR ALL 2007 MODELS AND FOR ALL RIGHT HAND DRIVE MODELS FROM 2008-2012. I BELIEVE THAT IT IS IMPERATIVE FOR PUBLIC SAFETY REASONS THAT AN INVESTIGATION BE PERFORMED TO CONSIDER REQUIRING JEEP TO ADDRESS THE REMAINDER OF THEIR FAULTY AIRBAG SYSTEMS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT 40 MPH, THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE VIOLENTLY WOBBLED MAKING IT DIFFICULT TO MANEUVER THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT MENTIONED THAT HE WAS ABLE TO AVOID A CRASH DUE TO THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE VEHICLE NEEDED A STEERING DAMPER AND A TRACK BAR. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE ALSO WAS TAKEN TO GET A FRONT END ALIGNMENT AND TIRES ROTATED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 20,000. UPDATED 06/29/16*LJ UPDATED 11/17/2017*JS
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WANGLER. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING AND THE INSTRUMENT PANEL LIGHTS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND DROVE HOME. IN ADDITION, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO START. THE FAILURE RECURRED THREE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 77,000.
AIRBAG LIGHT AND CHIME COMES ON AND OFF WHILE THE JEEP IS BEING DRIVEN. HORN STILL WORKS, CRUISE CONTROL STILL WORKS, DEALERSHIP REVIEWED AND DIAGNOSIS IS CLOCKSPRING IS CAUSING THE ISSUE. DEALERSHIP ALSO VERIFIED THAT WHEN THE LIGHT COMES ON AND CHIME, THE AIRBAGS ARE DISABLED. SINCE THE ONLY PART NOT WORKING IS THE AIRBAG SENSOR, SHOULDN'T THIS BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND COVERED BY CHRYSLER? CHRYSLER SAYS THAT IF THIS HAPPENED WHILE THE JEEP WAS UNDER WARRANTY IT WOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED.
CRUISE CONTROL STOPPED WORKING A FEW MONTHS AGO. TODAY I STARTED GETTING THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT FLASHING ON AND OFF. LOOKS LIKE I'LL BE DROPPING $500+ FOR A NEW CLOCK SPRING. HOW IS THIS NOT ALREADY LISTED AS A RECALL?
ON THE 2010 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.THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE AND CONCERN FOR MANY 2010 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. THIS FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS THE CULPRIT FOR POTENTIAL AIRBAG FAILURE IN THE 2010 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DURING AN ACCIDENT OR PREMATURE DEPLOYMENT WHEN SIMPLY DRIVING AROUND. FIAT CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY CONCERN OF THEIR FAULTY CLOCKSPRING THAT CAN CAUSE FAILURE OF THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS FROM PROPERLY DEPLOYING. MY JEEP WRANGLER HAS JUST OVER 50K MILES AND BOTH THE ESP / BAS LIGHT AND THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT HAVE BEGUN FLASHING AND CHIMING INTERMITTENTLY. I WAS TOLD BY FIAT CHRYSLER THAT THE CLOCK SPRING ON THE 2010 (LHD) IS NOT INCLUDED IN THE CLOCK SPRING EXTENDED WARRANTY AVAILABLE TO OTHER MODEL YEARS AND THE RHD VERSION ON THE SAME MODEL YEAR. THE CLOCK SPRING IS THE SAME IN ALL OF THE AFFECTED VEHICLES AND REPRESENTS A POTENTIAL THREAT OF SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH SHOULD THE AIRBAG FAIL TO DEPLOY IN AN ACCIDENT OR DEPLOY PREMATURELY.
THE AIRBAG LIGHT ON DASH COMES ON AND OFF . DEALER SAID NO PROBLEM WITH AIRBAG. PROBLEM PERSISTS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR REMAINED ILLUMINATED. ALSO, THE HORN DID NOT SOUND WHEN IT WAS PRESSED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TIPM AND THE CLOCK SPRING MALFUNCTIONED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000. UPDATED 05/11/16*LJ *TR
NEVER KNEW THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE UNTIL RECENTLY BUT FOR 5 YEARS, SINCE THE FIRST FILL UP OF GAS, THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF ON THE PUMP POPS FOLLOWED BY A SPURTING OF GASOLINE OUT OF MY TANK. IT GETS EVERYWHERE. ON ME, MY CLOTHES, MY SHOES, THE GROUND, NOT TO MENTION ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY JEEP AND THE FENDER.
MY HEADLIGHTS AND MARKER LIGHTS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF UNLESS I DISCONNECTED THE BATTERY. WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD RANDOMLY COME ON AND NOT SHUT OFF. CHANGED OUT THE ACCESSORY SWITCH AND THAT DIDN'T FIX ANYTHING. CHANGED SOME FUSES AND THE PROBLEM SEEMED TO BE RESOLVED. THE NEXT DAY MY JEEP WOULDN'T START. JUMPED IT WITHOUT A PROBLEM AND ABOUT A HALF A MILE DOWN THE ROAD WHILE DRIVING ALL OF THE DASH LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING. MY JEEP ENGINES MOTOR STALLED WHILE IN MOTION ON A BUSY CITY STREET WITH A SPEED LIMIT OF 40 MPH, FORTUNATELY I HAD JUST STARTED SLOWING DOWN FOR THE RED LIGHT SO AN ACCIDENT DID NOT OCCUR. I SAT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE BUSY ROAD FOR TEN MINUTES WAITING FOR THE POLICE TO PUSH ME TO AN EMPTY PARKING LOT. DUE TO THESE SYMPTOMS AND THE PREVIOUS INVESTIGATION (NHTSA DEFECT INVESTIGATION #DP14004), I BELIEVE I HAVE A FAULTY TIPM. THE LOCAL REPAIR SHOP IN HUBBARD, OHIO LOOKED OVER THE JEEP FOR BAD GROUNDS AND WIRES AND NOTHING WAS FOUND. ON MARCH 6, 2016, THE JEEP'S HEADLIGHTS WOULD NOT SHUT OFF UNLESS THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF, THE FOG LIGHTS LIGHT ON THE DASH FLASHED AND THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULD COME ON WITH THE FOG LIGHT SWITCH. THE HEADLIGHTS WOULD SHUT OFF WHEN I SHUT THE JEEP OFF AND REMOVED THE KEY, SO I DEALT WITH THE PROBLEM FOR A FEW DAYS UNTIL IT WENT AWAY ON ITS OWN. I'M HOPING THIS IS THE LAST OF MY TIPM ISSUES.
THE JEEP WAS TURNED OFF AND STOPPED AT THE GAS STATION AND WHEN FILING UP WITH GAS THE GAS PULSATES OUT OF THE OPENING AND SPEWS OUT ALL OVER JEEP AND GROUND. ALSO NOT SURE IF RELATED THE NEXT DAY THE GAS CAP CODE CAME ON.
WHILE FILLING THE GAS TANK, IT WILL OVERFLOW AND ABOUT A GALLON OF GAS WILL COME OUT AND GO ALL OVER THE GROUND. IT HAPPENS AT MANY DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND IS A HAZARD TO PEOPLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT .
WHILE FILLING THE GAS TANK FUEL WILL SPILL OUT OF THE FILLER SPOUT. IT SEEMS TO BE UNDER PRESSURE WHEN THE TANK IS ALMOST FULL....VERY DANGEROUS...IF YOU DO NOT STOP THE PUMP PRIOR TO A FULL TANK OF GAS IT WILL SPILL OUT EVERY TIME
AIRBAG DASH LIGHT AND WARNING CHIME COME ON INTERMITTENTLY. CODE SHOWS - B1B02 - DRIVER AIRBAG SQUIB 1 CIRCUIT OPEN. CLOCK SPRING IS SUSPECT, BUT THE HORN & CRUISE CONTROL ARE STILL FUNCTIONAL. THIS CONDITION HAPPENS AT ALL TIMES, WHETHER STATIONARY, MOVING OR TURNING.
GAS TANK OVERFLOW ON EVERY FILLUP. ON SOME PUMPS I CAN ONLY PUMP 1/3 OF A GALLON AT A TIME VERY SLOWLY. IT SEEMS CLEAR THAT THE CHECK VALVE IS HAVING SOME KIND OF ISSUE AS IS A WELL KNOWN PROBLEM IN THESE JEEPS. THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THE PROBLEM AND CHARGES ALMOST DOUBLE WHAT A NEW TANK WOULD COST TO DIAGNOSE AND REPLACE THE TANK.
AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT AND CHARM COME ON, FAILED CLOCK SPRING, VERY COMMON ISSUE ON THESE JEEP WRANGLERS, VERY DANGEROUS AS AIR BAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IN A COLLISION.
FUEL SPILLS OUT OF THE FILLER PORT DURING THE REFUELING PROCESS. THIS CONDITION GENERALLY OCCURS WHEN THE FUEL TANK IS FILLED TO THE FULL OR NEARLY FULL LEVEL AND THE GAS PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OR CLICKS OFF. THE FUEL SPLASHES ON THE PERSON FUELING THE CAR, THE CAR ITSELF, AND ONTO THE GROUND. THIS HAPPENS REPEATEDLY, NOT JUST A SINGLE OCCURRENCE. HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT GAS PUMPS, SLOWING THE PUMP WHEN IT GETS TO ALMOST FULL, AND FINALLY NOW JUST NOT FILLING UP COMPLETELY DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS OF FUEL SPILLING ONTO GROUND/DRIVER/VEHICLE. DATE GIVEN IS MOST RECENT OCCURENCE, WHILE IT HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER 6 MONTHS.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT PASSENGER SIDE WIRELESS KEY ENTRY AS WELL AS THE DOOR LOCK ON THE INSIDE FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE CONTACT ALSO STATED THAT NOW THE DRIVER SIDE WIRELESS KEY ENTRY AND INTERIOR THE ROCKER SWITCH BOTH FAILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000. UPDATED 04/20/16*LJ THE CONSUMER STATED THE DRIVER WOULD BE LOCKED IN THE VEHICLE FOR SEVERAL MINUTES. UPDATED 11/20/2017*JS
WHILE PARKED ENGINE BEGAN TO REPEATEDLY CRANKED AND MOVED OVER CURB OVER 20 FEET UNTIL STOP BY STRIKING OVER VEHICLES AND EXHAUST BATTERY POWER.
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE AIR BAG CLOCK SPRING ASSEMBLY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V176000 (AIR BAGS). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.
MY GAS TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME I FILL IT. IT DOES NOT RECOGNIZE WHEN IT IS FULL AND STOPS PUMPING. IT MAKES THE NOISE IT IF FINISHED PUMPING AND WHEN I PULL OUT THE GAS HANDLE IT OVERFLOWS WITH GAS DOWN THE SIDE OF MY JEEP. MY VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN FILLING IT EVERY TIME.
TRANSMISSION COOLER LINES ARE LEAKING FROM THE METAL TO RUBBER FITTINGS. THEY'VE BEEN REPLACED BEFORE, BUT THE OEM PART DEVELOPS THIS LEAK. CHRYSLER ISSUED A TSB FOR THIS AND DEALER STATES IT'S A KNOWN ISSUE. MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER COVERED BY THE TSB & THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD AS THE ATF GETS ALL OVER THE FRONT END.
FUEL PUKES OUT OF THE FILLER NOZZEL WHILE FILLING.
DURING RE-FUELING, WHEN THE GAS TANK IS FULL, GAS OVERFLOWS OUT OF THE VEHICLE AND SPILLS EVERYWHERE. I WAS TOLD THE ENTIRE GAS TANK HAS TO BE REPLACED. MY WARRANTY IS EXPIRED AND THERE IS NO RECALL FOR MY YEAR JEEP WRANGLER (2010). I SAW THAT THIS IS COVERED FOR JEEP YEARS 2006-2007 REGARDLESS OF MILES/WARRANTY. THIS IS A HAZARD THAT SHOULD BE COVERED FOR ANY YEAR JEEP, NOT JUST THOSE SPECIFIC YEARS.
BROKEN CLOCKSPRING.
EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS TANK, THE TANK OVERFLOWS. THE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF ON THE PUMP DOESN'T STOP AND GAS POURS OUT. EVERY TIME, EVERY GAS STATION. I CAN'T FILL UP THE TANK COMPLETELY BECAUSE IT WILL OVERFLOW. I HAVE TO ESTIMATE WHEN IT'S CLOSE TO FULL AND STOP IT BEFORE IT GETS CLOSE.
HEAVY OIL CONSUMPTION 3-4 QUARTS EVERY 2000 MILES .. I BOUGHT THE JEEP NEW IN AUG. 2010 IT HAS 48200 MILES ON IT.. IT IS JUST OUT OF WARRANTY. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND CALLED CHRYSLER. THEY WONT DO ANYTHING AND TOLD ME THEY HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THAT. SO I TOOK IT TO A LOCAL MACHINE SHOP AND THEY TOLD ME THAT THE PISTON RINGS ARE STICKING TO THE PISTONS ALLOWING OIL INTO THE COMBUSTION CHAMBER. THEIR ARE MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE ABOUT THIS EXACT PROBLEM
TAMARA INFLATORS SEE WHERE RIGHT HAND DRIVE HAS BEEN RECALLED. TOOK MY JEEP TO DEALER,THEY TOLD ME THEY HAVE SEEN HUNDREDS WITH THIS PROBLEM,ONE DEALER. ALSO SAID MY AIRBAGS WAS DISABLED BECAUSE OF THIS. I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW I AM SAFE AFTER PAYING THIS MUCH FOR A JEEP. I ONLY HAVE 64,000 MILES ON IT. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY SHOULD BE RECALLED, SO MANY 2010.
EVERY TIME I FULL MY GAS TANK IN MY JEEP, IT ALWAYS SPEWS GAS OUT ON ME AND THE JEEP. THIS IS VERY HAZARDOUS AND VERY HARD TO CLEAN. IT HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME AT ANY GAS PUMP. I HAVE A CHILD IN THE NICU THAT CAN'T BE AROUND ANY FUMES AND ITS PREVENTING ME FROM SEEING MY DAUGHTER. I HAVE HEARD CHRYSLER WILL DO NOTHING ABOUT THE "ISSUE".
MY 2010 JEEP (MANUAL) POPS OUT OF 1ST GEAR, VERY VIOLENTLY, AFTER I'VE STARTED INTO THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. POTENTIALLY VERY DANGEROUS TO ME, MY PASSENGERS, & WHOEVER THE UNLUCKY VEHICLE'S PASSENGERS MAY BE MEETING ME AT THAT MOMENT. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE I BOUGHT IT 2 1/2 YEARS AGO. 1 MECHANIC ASKED IF I KNEW HOW TO DRIVE A STICK. I'M FEMALE, 41YRS & HAVE BEEN DRIVING A STICK SINCE I LEARNED AT AGE 13 IT IS THE ONLY TYPE OF TRANSMISSION I DRIVE. I'M WRITING NOW BECAUSE I DIDN'T KNOW THIS EXISTED BEFORE & STARTED SEARCHING FOR A BETTER TRANSMISSION NOT A REPLACEMENT WHEN I FOUND THIS & A FEW MORE THAT STATE THE SAME PROBLEMS I'M HAVING. I'M NOT SURE HOW MANY OF THESE COMPLAINTS NEED TO BE GIVEN BEFORE SOMEONE HEARS THEM & CHOOSES TO LISTEN BUT HOPEFULLY SOON. IT'S JAN. 2016
NHTSA publishes every complaint as the owner wrote it and investigates only a fraction. Spelling, capitalisation and judgement are the filer’s own. What carries weight is repetition: the same component failing the same way across many filings, and whether the manufacturer eventually opened a recall for it.
