2007 JEEP Wrangler

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!

Jeep Gas Overflow Problem, when I fill up gas always overflows and spurts out.

Fuel does not cut off when filling the tank, causing overflow onto car, ground, person.

Death Wobbel over 55 MPH on the interstate. no shoulder and multiple lanes of traffic to cross. Children in the car.

I just purchased my jeep one month ago, it only has powertain warranty, electrical issues are not covered. Jeep won\'t start, the TIPM is defective.

At about 32000 miles my Jeep Wrangler X started experiencing the \"death wobble\". Wheel balance was performed and seemed to correct for a while but at about 35000 miles the wobble returned. Speed that the wobble is most noticeable is between 55 and 60 MPH.

I was driving down the road and the horn started blaring, windshield wipers was wiping at high speed, windshield washer fluid was squirting out, and all gauges stopped working. I tried to turn truck off and ignition did not work.

Emission: Failed emission test because of large gas vapor leak. Took the jeep dealership in Benton KY. They said it was fixed when i bought a new gas cap. Took back for emission retest and still failed. Had to take it to a mechanic in Nashville TN and he ran new gas and vapor lines.

Computer Controls: TIPM is not working properly. Jeep starts but dash is blacked out and wipers come on full power. When this happens the jeep will not go into gear.

While travelling at about 68mph on an interstate overpass, I experienced the dreaded \"Death Wobble\". It was horrific…I lost control of my vehicle and thought I would fall off the overpass. It felt like 4 simultaneous blow-outs. This is the scariest thing I\'ve ever experienced as a driver. There was no warning…not bumps nor pot holes. I cannot believe there is no recall for this. I am not afraid to drive my vehicle on the highway and interstate. This Jeep has two other pending recalls re: clock spring and air bags. I was notified of these recalls 6 months ago and there has still been no resolve as recall dept. is still awaiting parts. This is ridiculous and terribly dangerous!

instrument panel glitches,will start but no dash lights and is stuck in park. have to disconnect battery and reconnect to reset TIPM to return to normal every time it is started.

As soon as I turn the car over, my dash lights, headlights come on. The headlight stalk and the windshield wiper stalk are inoperable. It\'s a safety hazard to drive my car. And after researching through multiple forums and sites online, it looks like this is a fairly common problem, with a non-standard resolution. Not looking forward to the hours I\'m going to have to spend getting this addressed. I hope I\'m wrong.

I have a 2007 jeep over the last 4 years I have replaced the steering bar 4 times and also pretty much the whole front suspension due to the \\\\\\\"death wobble\\\\\\\" and here it is doing it again. Jeep needs to step up and recall and get this fixed as I am not the only one in my small town that\\\\\\\'ll possible never buy a jeep again due to this. It\\\\\\\'s been one suspension problem over and over costing me thousands at this point. The money is really the least of the issues since I have two kids and when driving and it starts to shake to the point I gotta slow down on a highway to get it to stop hoping not to be hit in the rear. I promise I will sue jeep if it ever causes an accident. They know this is a problem and have not addressed it. It is absolutely downright inexcusable!!!

Death Wobble while towing a trailer on highway

Death Wobble – when the front axle begins violently oscillating, causing the car to shake (or wobble) in a manner which makes the vehicle hard to control.

I have the “death wobble” and its getting worse. My wive was on the freeway the other day and it happened 3x in ten minutes and almost wrecked. This vehicle is unsafe. Ive already replaced the stabilizer bar and it didn’t help.

Accidental fuel spillage issue when filling up at gas station – from when I purchased the vehicle in 2010 till now.

Over the last two years – intermitent starting issues (will not start for 3 or 4 cranks) and stalling at light and stop signs – Recall done in 2007 but still not working.

Air bag light coming and off while driving – clock spring issue. Was turned down by dealership. Was told no recalls are on Wranglers.

Ive had my check engine light on shortly after buying this jeep and my codes read it was the evaporative system. Shortly after this I was unable to fill my jeep to completion or the gas would spray out of the nozzle like a geyser. I dont know if the problems are related but the dealer just replaced my inlet check valve and I replaced my esim,vapor canister,seals, and purge solenoid to no avail the codes still read bad esim, bad purge solenoid, and it still sprays fuel.

I have what i have read is the death wabble. when i drive over 65 mph on the interstate and hit a bump the steering wheel starts to shake violently. i have to pull over and stop the car.It started right away and almost crashed on the interstate. They fixed it saying it was a steering problem. that didn’t work and in the past 7 years they have siad they fixed it 3 times and the last time i brought it in they said nothing was wrong with it. After the warranty ran out they charged me over $3,000.00 to fix it. Of course that didn’t work. then when they said there was nothing wrong with it i had someone video tape it happening on the interstae. I brought the video back to the dealership and showed them the video. They said they have seen it before and to call chrysler. I called them they said they hadn’t heard of the problem but would get back to me within a week. After 2 weeks i called them and they said there was nothing they could do so bring it back to the dealership
I have had no modifications on the jeep at all. as i said this problem started happening when i drove it off the dealership.
I am driving a dangerous car and jeep dealership and chrysler are giving me the run around

I HAVE LOST POWER IN THE BLINKERS, WINDSHIELD WIPERS, AND FLUID PUMP. LOST TAILLIGHTS, THE HIGH BEAMS STOPPED, PASSENGER AIRBAG LIGHT IS ON NOW AND HEADLIGHTS DO NOT TURN ON WITH THE SWITCH,, LITTLE WHILE BACK HAD A ISSUE OF IT DIDN’T CRANK AND ALSO AND ISSUE WITH THE INSTRUMENT PANEL BLINKING LIKE SOMETHING WAS RESETTING ITSELF…..

Front end shakes violently when hitting a small bump.

Jeep ‘death wobble’ at highway speeds creating a very unsafe condition where I can’t steer my jeep and have to pull of the side.

http://www.jeepproblems.com/trends/fuel-overflow/
i have had numerous times when filling up fuel that gasoline would spew out of the filler neck like a geyser and i would be wet with gasoline as well as gas alongside the jeep and on the ground. this is seriously a potential fire hazard and needs attention and replaced.

I have replaced almost all part on the front end and still have the death wobble

Occasioally the front end will shake so bad you can hardly hold on to the steering wheel. I read other people experience same problem with no answer as to cause.

In the last year, we have begun to experience the so-called “death wobble”. Replaced the shocks thinking that was the problem before we began to do some research. Fixes seem very expensive and unreliable. Will try some basic “repair” suggestions, but it seems that this problem only leads to additional expensive repairs.

Front suspension shakes violently after passing over a bump at highway speed, often even a very small bump. The only way to get it to stop shaking is to come to a completely stop.

When I fill my gas tank up it doesn’t stop and gas pours all over the ground. I have had to go to numerous workers and let them know that gas is all over the ground and the jeep. The jeep was involved in a accident before I took over so not sure what happened.

Death wobble. I have replaced almost every single part on the front end of my 2007 Jeep Wrangler JK Unlimited. It’s never been lifted or changed from factory suspension. This is all happening WITH FACTORY setup and components. First go-round I had my ASE certified mechanic replace all the tie rods and the steering stabilizer. Then continued to have issues months later. Then I had him replace the track bar and upsize the bolts/nuts/washers on the track bar as this was a highly recommended solution we found online (Chrysler uses 14mm bolts in brackets and bushings that are made for 9/16″????WTF?). Problem appears to still not be solved. Chrysler/Jeep needs to take responsibility for this manufacturing defect and issue a recall to correct the problem on all affected models. There’s NO reason a $40,000 car should have anything people call a “death wobble” – and not be curable. It is infuriating.

Upon starting, horn sounded constantly, windshield wipers came on, windshield washer squirted, back up and drivers side headlight came on. After turning off ignition and removing key, engine and all above named accessories stayed running. Approximately 90 seconds after disconnecting battery, the engine quit.

TIPM is bad. Imagine driving down the road when suddenly-The horn honks continuously on its own. The windshield wipers run and wiper fluid sprays. The lights go on and off and the dash lights show faults.The engine even continues to run after the key is turned off and removed from the ignition. All of this happens at the same time. It’s total pandamonium.
The only way to stop all of this action is to remove the battery cables from the battery. If you don’t have a wrench to disconnect the battery then all this will eventually run the battery down to 0 power. I can’t drive it now and leave the battery disconnected because of fear that if I park it in my garage with the battery connected it may short out the electronics and burn my house down in the middle of the night. After investigating it appears that many people are having the same type of problem and it has been identified as the faulty TIPM.
All this and on top of that the Death Wobble occurs every once in a while when I drive over a small bump. I’ve had the tires balance the tow in adjusted new front end alignment and new bar added with brand new tires as a last ditch effort. All that didn’t slove the problem.

TIPM caused all systems to randomly stay on, even when key was taken from ignition.

Tipm stopped working

I was driving on highway when hitting 65mph and jeep started to shake uncontrollably. I would have to stop and pull over to a lower speed for it to stop. But if I was in left lane and it started I couldn’t swing to breakdown lane so would have to stop immediately in traffic. Very unsafe but better than causing accident. I replaced the steering stabilizer last summer with no relief. Why is jeep not handling this ? Why are people like us spending thousands of dollars on a vehicle just to have cause life threatening issues I have many things and read up on this death wobble of jeep. Is it something I can get lawyers involved ?

My keep has the death wobble.

Jeep “Death Wobble”. The front end shook violently after hitting an uneven road on a hill and/or curve. The shaking would not end until I hit the brakes. It occurred three times in December of 2014. I had the front ball joints and the steering stabilizer replaced.

TIPM Module failure (complete electrical/computer system malfunction, resulting in every electrical system ( alarm/ horn, wiper/washer, radio, fan, all gauges, turn signals, etc) “activating” at same time – usually at the least opportune time.
Reported “fix” is replacement of TIPM Module, which may or may not be covered under manufacturer recall (of a range of manufacture dates – ie: not all vehicles were included in recall, despite all sharing in same problem).

Wrangler Sahara: The problem started late February 2014. I took my Jeep to the dealership and explained my problem in great detail and they were aware of the this problem. So they called me later and said it’s fixed. Which it wasn’t I pulled out and only a few minutes later it happened so I went back and asked them if they bothered to test drive to see if it was actually fixed and they said no. This blew my mind especially since it’s dangerous. So after they put on a new stabilizer bar I took it to a new place since that was the 4th bad experience I’ve had with that dealership. The back up place started their inspection of problem and noticed the stabilizer was faulty and he started with replacing that again. I got the jeep back to only find it was still not fixed. I’ve taken the jeep back 5 times to have the following items replaced in this order: stabilizer bar/wheel alignment and rotation, stabilizer bar, all new shocks, steering damper/tie rod ends, and track bar. $2000 worth of work and it is still not fixed. Now I’m at a point where I just don’t know what to do. The mechanic is stumped and replace the entire suspension system. I feel like this vehicle is extremely dangerous to drive so now I’m stuck with a lemon or sell to someone else which is not right either. I’m blown away this is a well documented problem and that the manufacturer has done nothing to remedy issue. This has caused me to almost of been run over by 70mph semis, run two other cars off the road and it’s only a matter of time before I get hurt or killed or someone else does.

Wrangler Sahara: Death Wobble. At speeds between 55 to 60 mph car shakes uncontrollably.

Went to Victorville Motors on 5/28/07. Purchased brand new Jeep Wrangler JK, with 14 miles on odometer. At final inspection, noticed passenger door didn

The steering wheel starts shaking violently at speeds of 45 mph and above. Almost caused a multiple car pile up on the freeway when I started braking and getting off the roadway

Fuel sprays back out of the filler covering the operator and putting fuel on the ground when pump cuts off.

When driving more than 50MPH, the front end shakes volently and uncontrolably after hittin a small bump on the highway. This happened several times. I have NO after market parts, all parts are original/stck. I have 255 75 r17 Goodyear Wrangler tires. Today, I bough brand new 255 7r r17 Goodyear Wrangler tires, had the tires balanced and got an allignment. I drove the car on the highway, hit a bump, and the DEATH WOBBLE happened again, so violently that I nearly flipped over at 65 MPH.

Fuel tank overflows whe filing the vehicle with gas. Rollover check valve does not engage to stop the gas pump. Was told by jeep dealer I would need a whole new gas tank.

Death Wobble ,Chrysler at Ginn in Covington said, There is no problem with our Suspension and they did all they can and their said it don’t do the wobble for them on the test drive , but, it do the wobble on us on our country road with us, and it a danger for Me and for My family what happen if I wreck or Kill me or some one else, Plus Crop Chrysler just give us a run around about fixing this problem, Yes I mad….1800-763-8422-case number21965102, this will be last Chrysler produce we will ever own…They don’t care about people Safety ….It took them 3 month to try do anything about still they just give us the run around…This a Big Issue…

Death Wobble – I can drive the Jeep down the highway and once it hits above 45 miles an hour it will start to shake extensively. I have to start putting on the break immediately to stop the Jeep from shaking and regain control of the vehicle. With the speed limits on the highways 60 – 75 miles an hour the vehicle problem makes it impossible for me to take many highways. This Jeep is my only means of transportation to and from work and transporting my children. I have avoided over 5 near miss accidents because of this problem with my children in the vehicle. It has almost cost me my job because of having to avoid traveling in the Jeep.

07 Jeep Wrangler caught on fire, then exploded in my driveway catching my house on fire. The origin of the fire was in the transmission.

While driving on the roadway and I hit a bump the steering wheel and tires begin violently shaking. I have researched this for over a year and have replaced several things in my front end without luck. My Jeep was completely stock prior to this incident. This happens more often during the winter as I have put up with this for the second winter now. I have taken the Jeep to 2 dealerships in my area and they both told me they have never heard of the problem. As everyone knows that has experienced the “death wobble” before it is extremely common and Jeep wont admit to the problem. This is a huge problem and will injure someone sooner or later. Sadly my fellow Jeep owners and I, love our Jeeps and just continue to put up with the problem. Please help us push Jeep into fixing our Jeeps and redesigning future Jeeps.

Our 2007 Jeep Wrangler Sahara shakes uncontrollably on the highway (death shake). This recently happened on a stretch of 95, four times while traveling with our 2 young children.

I am writing to you because I do not know where else to go with this. Something needs to be done by Chrysler and something fast before something serious happens to someone. I have a 2007 Jeep Wrangler 4 door Sahara and I am experiencing with it what is called the “Death Wobble”, If you were to search about this on the internet, you will see I am not the only one that this is happening to. I have called the dealership where I got the jeep and automatically they tell me that I need to have my stabilizer bar replaced and that it would cost me $250. I will tell you by all the complaints that I have seen on the internet that that will not fix the problem. I do not have the money to sink into this jeep for something that they say is going to fix it and it does not. What I experience when I hit a bump going about 50 is a violent shaking in the front end of my jeep to the point that I have to slow down to almost 20 mph to get it under control. I have also experienced it coming down a hill and when I put the brake on and the violent shaking happens again, but when I put the brake on to slow down it does it worse. I am very scared to drive my jeep and I am afraid for my family and our lives in this jeep, when I use to love it. If this is a steering stabilizer problem then I think that Chrysler needs to take responsibility for this. I am sure if you ran a story about this, tons of people will come forward with the same thing. My mother in law has a 2009 jeep wrangler 4 door and the same thing is happening to hers. She has had new tires put on it, balanced, and an alignment. She has had it to the dealer twice and they tell her nothing is wrong with the jeep. My friend also has 2007 Jeep wrangler 4 door and hers does it too. I am so tired of having a vehicle that I pay good money for and I am afraid to drive it. I have also contacted my local news station.

Fuel tank overflows when filling the vehicle with gas. The rollover check valve does not engage to stop the gas pump.

Death wobble….steering arm, tie rods, wheel bearing.

Jeep death wobble

We had a death wobble experience start at 60,000 but we were unaware of what the death wobble was at the time. We were recommended to replace tires at various tire shops (none of which mentioned “death wobble”). Now we know that we have been dealing with this death wobble we realized we have replaced tires, shocks, damper “stabilizer”, breaks, rotors, balanced tires on numerous occasions unnecessarily due to what should be a manufacture problem (recall). We have experienced this “death wobble” on various road and freeways, after only having the car for 2 years. My particular car is a stock vehicle and has never been off road. After our first death wobble experience, we continued to experience it, but we were naive of what the real problem is. Each death wobble experience has be horrifically frightening for the driver, passengers and the cars behind us swerving to avoid hit us. To gain control of a death wobble situation you have to bring the vehicle to a complete stop to gain control of it, this is a partically scary and potentially fatal problem especially when you are traveling on a freeway were the speed limit 65 to 75 or in a carpool lane or bridge where there is no service lane to pull over (trust me we have experience all of them). This has caused me to almost hit various freeway walls, center dividers, pedestrians and park vehicles. This problem should be recalled before it actually injures or kills people. What is Chrysler Jeep waiting for someone to die in order for it to be recalled. This has been very costly and frustration when replacing parts and nobody really has a solution to the problem “including Jeep”.

steering stabilizer crack causing “Death Wobble” – Have been fixed to no avail 5 times in the 2 years that I have owned the car. Bought it in used in 09 with 24,000 miles. Now has 47,000

Death Wobble

I cannot legally sell this vehicle or trade it in without notifying the "buyer" that the vehicle has chronic "death wobble" despite attempts to fix problem and according to jeep dealer’s service department(s) there really is no way to fix it until Chrysler figures out how to fix and takes responsiblilty for problem which is rampant in many years of Jeep models. Mechanic at Jeep dealership said the problem has been discussed at mechanic’s school in Minneapolis but to no avail, with no resolution or cure for the problem. The vehicle is absolutely unsafe to drive over 40-50 miles an hour depending on road conditions.

In February, 2011 my 2007 jeep wrangler felt wobbly while driving. I took it to the dealer to get an alignment. They informed me that my front end suspension was loose and needed to be relaced at a cost of $2000. My extended warranty covered some of the cost. 2 weeks later the wobble was back. I returned to the dealer. They claimed nothing was wrong. The following week March 14, while driving on the freeway my jeep jerked violently and I lost control of the vehicle, narrowly avoiding a crash. The track bar broke off. I had lost all steering control of the front drivers side tire. The dealer, my extended warrany company, my car insurer and Chrysler/Jeep refuse to repair the defect. The cost the dealer quoted us is $5000.00

Death Wobble

DEATH WOBBLE!!!!!! THIS IS GOING TO CAUSE A REALLY BAD ACCIDENT. IF SO MANY JEEPS HAVE THIS PROBLEM IT SHOULDNT BE THIS HARD TO FIND A FIX FOR!!!

I own a 2007 Jeep Wrangel Unlimited Rubicon at the time of the axle breaking it had 1200 miles on it. While driving I noticed a jurking of the front end and a click when making a turn. I looked under the vehicle and noticed that the front axle at the unjoint had broken. I took it to the local dealer Britt Jeep and Fredericksburg for warranty repair. I recived a call the next day telling me that the broken axle was do to driver error. I went to the dealer to discuss his finding and was told that since the vehicle had been off road that it would not be a warranty issue but an insurance issue. e

I have a jeep wrangler that shakes and wobbles violently between 35 and 70 miles per hour. The front wheels wobble so bad you loose control of the steering wheel. Jeep has been to the original dealer 3 times and they told me to duplicate the problem, I said they need to drive my vehicle like its there own, back and forth to work and on outings with there family and it would happen for them but they would not do that. They want me to duplicate the problem for them on command. If you have this wobble in your jeep you know it cant be duplicated on command. So I took a video camera with me every time I drove in the jeep and got it on video. No one at the dealer or at chrysler wants to view the video. I went to another jeep dealer in my area and they atempted to fix the problem it was they say a steering damper and guess what after putting 2000 miles on the jeep it happened again. I have this 2007 jeep sitting in my driveway it cant be driven I wont put my self or my family in it this jeep is going to kill someone and then maybe chrysler will listen and admit there is a problem.

The Chrysler Group LLC and Midway Jeep Chrysler located at 777 Camino del Rio South in San Diego, CA are denying consumer rights afforded me under state and federal law, breach of contractual obligations and violation of state and federal clean vehicle emission regulations. I purchased a 2007 Jeep Wrangler X on April 13th, 2007. Since then, I have to add 6 quarts of oil between oil changes. I have taken the vehicle to the dealership to have the problem resolved under the terms of the vehicles warranty. After cursory examination that included visually checking the dip stick, visually checking the spark plugs, PVC, and CVC valves, I was told by Bruce Webb, the service manager for Midway Jeep Chrysler stated that using 6 quarts of oil between oil changes is perfectly normal and Midway Jeep nor Chrysler will not perform any other investigative diagnostics, nor make any repairs to vehicle. They appear to be “running out the clock” for when the vehicle warranty expires on April 12th, 2010. After consulting automotive experts and technicians, which I hired at my own expense, have been unanimous in their professional opinions that the vehicle’s engine has serious internal mechanical issues and the engine will fail. Further more, the amount of oil being consumed is destroying the catalytic converter, oxygen sensors and other components of the vehicle exhaust system. This will render the vehicle inoperable under California law and require substantial repairs at great cost.

Jeep steering wonders to the sides when driving on highway.

Timp has gone bad. Causes all gauges to quit working, stalls engine during operatiing, door locks and security system inoperable, headlights work then don't work. Lights come on even if switch is off. Window motors quit working. The well known failure of the timp in chrysler vehicles, especially all jeep wrangler series dating as far back as 2006, have not been addressed nor fixed by chrysler. This timp failure is a severe safety hazard and needs an immediate recall forced upon chrysler/daimler/jeep. My 2007 jeep wrangler jku timp quit working, whilst i was driving. This could have caused a major accident of which could have resulted in injury, and/or death. Thankfully, i was able to physically through the disabled power steering to stop vehicle. Through my research, it appears this is a major safety issue plaguing nearly every jeep wrangler produced. Something needs to be done now to address this issue. I wonder if anyone involved in an accident causing injury or death or damage could have been related to the timp. I am going to discuss this issue with the north carolina general assembly and nc and us attorney's general's office as well. This has to be fixed now with immediate recall forcing chrysler/daimler/jeep to fix the timp.

Tl* the contact owned a 2007 jeep wrangler. While driving 45 mph, the contact drove off the edge of the road. The contact attempted to correct the issue and over steered. As a result, the vehicle rolled over. The air bags did not deploy. A police report was filed and there were minor injuries which required medical attention. The vehicle was taken to a dealer and declared destroyed. The manufacturer was not notified. The approximate failure mileage was 122,000.

While driving, trac bar bracket broke off front axle & vehicle could not be steered or controlled. Approx 2 weeks later, rear trac bracket broke off rear axle & vehicle was swaying, but could be controlled. The prior incidents mentioned above happened in 07/12 & 08/12. Jeep dealer made repairs by re-welding brackets. on 11/10/2016 my wife was coming home from work & heard a loud bang and lost control of vehicle & it was bouncing violently & could not steer vehicle & almost crashed vehicle. Trac bar bracket on front axle had broken off again after being repaired by jeep dealer.

When driving at speeds of 50 to 55 mph the jeep will go into an uncontrollable wobble which you have to bring the jeep to almost to a complete stop to get it under control .have had it to the place of purchase in june 2016 3 times.

This vehicle frequently experiences fuel "spit-back" on filling. It was manufactured in 10/06, five months before the date in jeep's lifetime fuel tank replacement extended guaranty for spit-back. Also, the tank began leaking after every fill up. It leaked on the ground and/or with gas fumes present until the tank level got below 1/2 tank the leak source was where the fuel pump is inserted into the top of tank. The iron clamps and lock ring for the fuel pump are located in a depressed "bowl" at the top of the tank. Water accumulates and remains in the bowl causing the lock ring and clamps to rust. The rust expands and cracks the plastic that the fuel pump is made of. The repair requires replacing the fuel tank, lock ring, and fuel pump. In my opinion, this is a design or manufacturing problem and these conditions cause serious environmental and safety problems. I informed jeep (case number 30126422) on 9/15/16 and they declined to do anything. I have spent $1,019.60 on emergency and permanent repairs. Photos of the tank as it was removed from the jeep showing "the bowl" and rust, rusted clamps, and cracked fuel pump are attached. Please let me know if i can provide any further information.

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 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.

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.

Vehicle will jump out of 1st gear after 10 feet into an intersection when taking off from a stop, leaving you in the middle of oncoming side traffic while in neutral. I have almost been hit multiple times. There is a service bulletin that jeep is aware of the dangerous problem. This is on the manual transmission models.

Fuel spills out of the fuel tank fill opening when filling the tank everytime. If you are near the fuel cap you will get sprayed with fuel.

I just purchased my jeep about a month ago. I had a 30 day powertrain warranty from the dealer, but it did not include electrical issues. The tipm was defective, and my jeep will not start now as a result. I contacted a parts dealer and was told the part is on back order and no release date available.

Takata recall took my car in to jeep (santa monica) on thursday september 1st. Did not mention the recall. Tried to trade car in on sunday to toyota, was told about the recall. Went back to jeep on tuesday september 6th. The clockspring issue was taken care of, however, i was told to wait for the passenger airbag recall. recall has been issued for over two months and has not been resolved. It is not only an inconvenience for someone who needs to trade their car for another vehicle, but it is a danger to myself every time i step into my car. I now can not in good conscience take another passenger in the vehicle with me, which is causing a disturbance to my life and my work. Jeep continues to refuse to repair the airbag, replace the car, or refund my purchase price minus depreciation.

Jeep violently pops out of first gear when trying to accelerate l. Happens all the time. From doing research online this seems to be a common problem with people who own the manual transmission jeep model. This can be exceptionally dangerous when going through intersections or changing lanes as the jeep will pop out if gear and no longer accelerate. This has happened since day one of me purchasing it.

Received recall notice (r13/nhtsa 15v-222) for clutch interlock switch. i removed the part (1 clip and one connector) and tried to get a replacement part at local dealer. They attempted to charge for the part and i asked for no charge due to recall. They refused to give me the part because i "might not install it correctly". They wanted me to schedule appointment for repair (put the part back in and drive to the dealer, which gave them enough faith that i could plug it in?). i didn't want to wait at dealer to have a part plugged in, so contacted fca recall assistance. Debate ensued regarding what fca will and will not pay for. I proposed that i will buy the part and submit for reimbursement. I was told that i might not be reimbursed. after review of title 49, i called fca recall assistance back and conceded some aspect of my original argument (based on title 49, 30120 (a)(a)(i)) and offered to let the dealer come over and clip in the part. Of course, they refused and recall assistance recommended taking it to the dealer, in essence, installing the suspect part they are concerned that i might not install correctly (the basis for refusal to provide the part), then drive to dealer). I asked if i there was so much concern about proper installation, why would fca endorse the installation of the old part. Fca then recommended that i pay to tow the vehicle to the dealer for the repair. first of all, should i be reimbursed for the part, if i purchased and installed? Fca position is maybe. secondly, why is reimbursement at the discretion of fca?

At about 32000 my jeep wrangler starting experiencing the "death wobble". Wheels were balanced and this seemed to correct for a while. At about 35000 miles the problem returned. The wobble seems to start at about 55 mph.

While going appx. 55-70mph, on several occasions, go over a bump in road (does not have to be a big bump) veh. Starts shaking, steering wheel has been jerked out of my hands. Have to come to a complete stop and does not matter where. Veh. Pulls extremely hard not wanting to go forward. Many youtube videos have also been documented on this. Maybe if i marked a traffic accident or death caused by this, jeep would do something. I have completed a fix that has been good now for several months. Replaced ball joints, added to steering shocks to keep steering forward, replace both tie rods, front end alignment, new shocks (all 4). Have paid out my part on keeping my jeep serviced. But, jeep still has not answered this complaint now for years. Expand question: when did this happen. It has been an ongoing problem since i bought it new in 2007. Jeep dealership could not find anything wrong.

Takata recall was issued may 26th 2016 and i talked to jeep today and there is no solution to this recall.

When fueling the vehicle, the gas pump handle constantly shuts off! It takes an extremely long time to put fuel into the vehicle.

Takata recall. Enough, it has been in excess of almost a year that the recall was first issued. Takata at this stage should replace my vehicle since the threat of using the vehicle with the recall is dangerous to any passenger. I am tired of having to use my other vehicles to as to avoid passengers in the front. Either replace the vehicle at no charge or issue a directive to have the airbag system removed in its entirety by a local dealer. *Tr

Tl* the contact’s wife owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that while his daughter was driving the vehicle at various speeds, the horn sounded independently without driver input. Additionally, the interior and exterior lighting flickered on and off. The contact also stated that the engine would turn on independently without warning. The contact took the vehicle to an independent mechanic who informed him that the vehicle had a defective totally integrated power module (tipm).

The contact was informed that that vin was not included in the recall. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 185,000.

Rear frame cross member rotted out . Hole in top of frame but no holes in bottom to let water and road salt out .

I was driving down the road and the horn started blowing and would not stop, the windshield wipers started wiping at high speed, windshield washer fluid was squirting out, and would not stop. I turned the vehicle off and issues kept happening. The gauges and speedometer stopped working at this time. Luckily i was pulling in my driveway. *Tr

Takata recall: in july 2016 i received notice for driver and passenger air bag safety recall. At that time no replacement parts were available & i was told that availability was unknown at that time. In early december i was notified that parts were available but now for only one of the airbags and that was repaired. However, as to the 2nd airbag, again the parts are not available and there is no known date when the parts will be available. This is unacceptable. To be told that there is a defect and now waiting over 5 months for complete repair is not right and extremely disconcerting. Why may jeep take so long to repair this dangerous problem?

Both front seat-belts locked up with the jeep parked. They will not unlock to allow you to buckle so that you can drive safely. We took to a jeep dealership; but they want to charge us over 500 a seat to fix- said it ran out of warranty at 60,000 miles. This makes the vehicle unsafe to drive. I feel that they may be required by you guys to cover seat-belts longer than that. I have a invoice showing that we took the jeep in and that the seat-belt retractors are stuck, but no way to upload from home.

Takata recall we received 2 recall notices for our son's 2007 jeep wrangler: s33/nhtsa 16v-290 airbag clockspring s43/nhtsa 16v-352 passenger airbag inflator for more than six months we have been trying to resolve this recall issue, but our dealership, southpoint dodge/jeep/ram in austin texas still does not have the recall replacement parts and we remain on the waiting list. We are very concerned because our son is a college student and travels between texas and louisiana frequently. Can you please tell us what the timeline is for getting these items taken care of?

Clockspring failure. Airbag light blinks and chimes in normal driving. Not offroad. Part is inferior and needs to be replaced several times over the life of the vehicle. *Tr

Took my jeep into a dealership to fix my airbag. They fixed it and it was doing fine for about 2years and now th airbag light keeps on turning on and off i know there has been a recall on it. So would like to know what can i do about that. Thanks

Driving down the road & my motor just cuts off. Happened 3 times over the past weekend & happened about 5 years ago.. Very dangerous & frightening. After i put it in park, it always restarts. This is not acceptable always happens when driving in traffic

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that the vehicle was at a stand still, when the headlights turned on independently without the ignition being on.

When the jeep needs refueled, it overflows. The pump handle can be manually operated so it can physically stop the overflow but not every time. Happens every week usually on a thursday or friday morning. 87 octane is used and does not matter which gas station is chosen at the time. This is an ongoing problem since purchasing the vehicle when we lived in oregon.

I have a current recall for a defective airbag in my 2007 jeep wrangler. The airbag is currently not operational. Every 1-2 minutes while drive the airbag light will come on and ding. This is a serious safety issue and it makes the vehicle incredibly annoying to drive. a local repair shop diagnosed the error codes and they said the problem is related to the following recall and i should take it to a dealer to be fixed. manufacturer recall number: s33 nhtsa recall number: 16v-290 i waited for the first available appointment and took my vehicle to autonation arapahoe jeep in centennial, colorado today. They said it will be a year and a half or more before the part is in stock. They will not be able to fix the issue until then. this is completely unacceptable to have the manufacturer acknowledge a defective airbag and i have to wait a year and a half to get it fixed. sadly, i don't know what recourse i have to get it fixed. Aside from paying $500 out of pocket to have the local auto repair shop fix it. Which is what they quoted me for. And said they could the part in stock to repair in 2 days.

Purchased this vehicle used and have had several issues with the catalytic converter . The vehicle will not pass smog

Purchased 2007 jeep wrangler in 2015 and have had problems with fuel splashing from gas tank when filling up. This should not happen. Fuel should stop once tank is full. I have noticed this is a problem with many jeep wrangler (jk) owners and would like to know if a recall is in effect or how it can be fixed. Bottom line i have called several dealers inquiring about part cnnnx321ac, which is a recall part #, but they can't sell it to me. So, if i can't buy the part to fix and they have no recall on the car, is my only option at this point to sue the chrysler corporation? This is a car my daughter drives and it is a safety issue not just some superficial issue with jeep. This occurs every time she goes to the gas station to fill the jeep. Smelling like petroleum after every filling of tank is not the right answer. *Tr

Loss of engine oil pressure while driving on the highway caused the engine to seize. A porous timing cover caused the bearings to wear out requiring an engine replacement at only 100,000 miles. Jeep/chrysler is aware of its porous timing cover, and published tsb 09-008-07. The company should pay for replacement of this engine. *Tr

This is a six speed manual transmission vehicle. From stop into first gear, the vehicle violently pops out of first gear into partial neutral. There is no binding apparent from any of the dust boots on the shifter lever. I have had this vehicle since late 2009. It was stored for a year and only driven monthly for short periods. Upon return from my deployment i drove this vehicle as my daily driver up to current. The hotter the weather, the more the transmission pops out of gear. Ever since i've had the vehicle, it has had this issue. It violently pops out if first gear 1 to 2 times a week; occasionally more. It is now becoming more apparent that this is a very unsafe issue. Recently, when trying to make left hand turns across traffic, it would pop out of gear and i would quickly have to recover and get it back into gear before oncoming traffic approached. I have seen hundreds of blogs and internet posts stating the same exact issue stated by hundreds, if not thousands of other jeep owners of similar years and referencing having to change out 1 and 2 gear synchros according to a jeep bulletin. So, if jeep knows it is a major issue, then why isn't there a recall? Others were lucky to get repairs for free under warranty, but the majority of owners were out of warranty, similar to me. Since this is such a predominant major safety issue, then this is clearly a need for a recall for those that need/require the repair. History wise, i purchased the vehicle in november 2009 with 15703 miles on it. By approx. February 2011 when i started driving it daily and at about 17000 miles the issue started. The vehicle currently has about 89800 miles on it.

My airbag light wont turn off nor will my esp bas light or traction control light.

Unable to get vehicle in for airbag recall. automation chrysler jeep just transferred me around and i gave up. medved is more than 2 weeks out and you have to leave it all day. what is the point of a safety recall if the dealerships will not do it.

While driving approaching a stop light in town the wipers came on, windshield fluid started spraying, horn was blaring and engine stalled. The 2nd time i was on a highway going 55 mph and the same exact thing happened i coasted in a subdivision started the engine back up and this time when i got home i could remove key and the engine would continue to run. I think the problem is the tipm because while the “christine effect“ is going on i can tap the tipm cover and it stops.

My 2007 jeep wrangler has a seriously dangerous problem commonly referred to as the death wobble! I had never heard of it until it did it while i was driving down a smooth suburb street and i searched the internet for help. The jeep owners community named it the death wobble because it literally wobbles and shakes without any warning lights, without anything triggering it, on every type of road, and at every speed. After it happened on the interstate with my son in the car with me, i no longer allowed my children to ride in the jeep at all. We almost died that day as it shook so violently almost putting us in the opposite side of the interstate! We missed getting t-boned by an 18 wheeler by just a hair. It was so frightening! The jeep dealership service dept said there's nothing that they can do about it and that it was very common. How is such a danger common??? How can these vehicles be legally sold?? The last time it happened i was alone and i ended up in a ditch. I was able to drive out of the ditch and went to nearby auto shop. Their diagnosis was that the engine "sling a rod" they said. For 3 months now, i have been making payments on a jeep sitting dead in an auto shop. As a single mom i can't afford such a huge repair and route 66 warranty company decided to cancel my already paid for extended warranty when i filed the claim on it. They denied it and said they're canceling me. This vehicle is going to kill someone. Please help!!

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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!

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.

Gasoline overfills/overflows when filling the tank.

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.

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

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

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.

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.

Every time i fill up at the gas pump gas over flows. I'm afraid to fill up anymore while being anywhere near this thing. The gas eritates my skin and eyes. This is so wrong.

Pumping gas to fill the tank always overflows. The sensor that tells the pump to shut off doesn't work causing gas to overflow all over the car, myself and the ground. What a waste of pricey gas.

Strong smell of gas in the garage after shutting jeep off for past 3-4 years. Fuel spit issue resolved with warranty 12/2013. Gas smell after shutting jeep off continued. 09/2014 dealership pulled code p0456, "vent tube at tank broken." paid to have dealership order and install a new tank only to find the "new tank has crack at rollover valve," had to order a second replacement fuel tank, installed with no problems noted. Heavy smell of residual fuel in the garage continued to persist to the point where we have to leave the garage open to vent the fumes for fear of ignition. Could not visually identify any fuel leak. All the while have had intermittent check engine lights coming off and on pointing to emissions and fuel system. Another trip to the dealership 07/2015, pulled code p0406, stated "couldn’t find anything at this time." heavy gas smell continues to get worse. 07/2016 took jeep to mechanic, pulled codes p0456 and p0486, found the fuel tank vent tube was cracked again, needed a new fuel tank and egr valve. Back to the dealership. Tank is out of warranty, have to replace the 22 month old fuel tank again. The fuel system has had consistent problems from inception. The heavy gas odor and cracked fuel tanks pose a serious life safety and environmental concern. It is only a matter of time before a vehicle and/or a residence catches fire. The continuous exposure to gas vapors alone is serious concern due to the carcinogenic nature of fuel and its vapors. After researching this issue in various jeep forums online, this does not seem to be a singular event and is actually quite common. Many jeep enthusiasts are diy'ers and are modifying/jury rigging the vent tube themselves instead of paying for a replacement tank, which means there are a lot of jeeps causing heightened emissions and pose further safety concerns that are going unreported and that you are unaware of.

While driving, if the vehicle hits a small bump, the front end shakes violently back and forth until i am able to stop the vehicle. This problem is widespread and can be found on the internet as the "jeep death wobble". We've spent $900 to have this fixed and have been to 2 different garages to have it fixed and the mechanics can't find anything more that is wrong and claim it's a design flaw in the vehicle.

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.

Bad clock spring. Air bag light and related chimes continue to go off. Had shop check codes and found clock spring bad.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

"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.

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 dollars, i went home. I live on a budget. I wrote jeep, but without a word, from them. So i looked at my owners manual, and saw nothing about changing shocks, coil springs at miles maintenance service intervals. I noticed your name, so i contacted you for help. Luckily i wasn't hit or worse. I'm 62 years young, and have driving experience. I hope this helps.

Faulty air bag clockspring

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.

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.

My horn quit working the same time the airbag light and the electronic stabilizer control / bas light came on.

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

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

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.

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

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.

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.

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

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.

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!

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!

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

The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the steering column was loose and needed to be tightened. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 110,000. The vin was unavailable.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. While driving approximately 55 mph, there was a bump in the road which caused the vehicle to shake and the contact lost control of the steering wheel. The shaking was stopped by applying the brakes. The vehicle was taken to a dealer for diagnostic testing. The vehicle was unable to be diagnosed or repaired. The failure recurred multiple times. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 3,000.

Upon starting vehicle, horn sound constant, wipers turn on, windshield sprayer squirts, back up light turn on and drivers side headlight illuminates. Turned off ignition and removed key, dashboard lost power, but engine continued to run, disconnected battery and approximately 90 seconds later, engine quite running

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. While driving 65 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was towed to a local mechanic who performed a diagnostic test that located a failure code at the engine. The engine was out of oil and contained metal fragments, which caused the vehicle to stall. No leaks were found to support why the engine was out of oil. The engine was replaced. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 108,000.

Experienced the jeep death wobble while travelling at 70 mph on a highway. I thought that i had experienced a blow out and the tire was moving from side to side on the rim. This was extremely violent. After i got the vehicle stopped i inspected it for damage and could not find any obvious problems. This happened five more times on that trip. I took the car to a mechanic that found nothing wrong. Had the tires rotated and balanced. They were in balance. Started researching the problem and found out about the death wobble. Found the steering damper was loose and tightened it. Helped a little but problem still occurs. Taking it to a dealer next to have the damping and alignment components replaced. I am the original owner and the vehicle is stock.

Incidents of engine stall; airbag non-deployment; random horn, headlight, taillight, door lock, instrument panel and windshield wiper activity; failure of fuel pump shutoff resulting in unintended acceleration; and fires. All the dash back lights come off and on randomly especially the heater controls. Air bag light is always on. Air bag light and beeper flash and beep all the time and no mechanic does not know what to do about it. Very flushterating to drive w airbag beeping . No resale value due to all the above things. Will you buy it? Horn has now stopped working and lights behind the heater do not work either.

I have had the "death wobble" since i purchased my jeep. This happened on both stock suspension and modified suspension and so far, it has happened easily well over 160 times over the course of this last year (i lost count as it happens fequently). I've dished out well over $1,000 to fix (so far), have had two accidents (nov. 2, 2014 and apr. 14, 2015, both minor with no police reports made either time) as a direct result of this, countless near misses, many a drink spilled on the floor board or myself then the floor thanks to either the gut-wrenching wobble itself, or having to slam on the breaks. Even more unsafe, is that everytime it happens, the only way to regain control of the vehicle is to stop immediately or risk further damage and/or losing control. This means having to slam on the breaks many times at highway speeds and hope that 1.) i'm actually driving as my fiancÉ wouldn't have the strength to keep control 2.) i maintain enough control to guide the jeep to an emergency lane so i can stop safely. 3.) hope that other drivers are paying attention and don't hit me. This is rediculous, and the more it happens, the less safe i feel, and the more risk that myself and my family are placed in. Jeep has a typical responses of, "we don't know what's wrong.", "there's nothing we can do.", "we are aware of the problem, but cannot offer a remidy.", or "let's replace this. Sorry it didn't help. Let's try this. Yes, we understand it didn't work, but we still had to replace it, so you still have to pay." plain rediculous, and what's more concerning is that this is a known problem that they refuse to address it. Please help!

Airbag light going on and off and on. Secondly, while driving at 39-41 mph and when rpm's drop from roughly 22,000 to roughly 12,000 ( shifting to last gear ),...jeep starts riding very rough and shaking. Not brakes, alignment, or balancing problem. Only happens with these specific guidelines.

Driving down the road when suddenly the horn started honking,wipers started on their own as well as wiper fluid squirting , radio came on and lights turning on and off. Pulled over and even after the car was turned off and key removed ignition the car remained running with all electrical equipment running off and on. It seems that many other people have had this problem with their jeep/ chrysler vehicles. i replaced the battery cables and started the car again, it was fine for about 30 seconds then it all happened again until i removed the battery cables. i removed the battery cables to the car because i'm concerned that the electrical problem may cause a fire under the hood and possibly burn my house down. *Tr

I parked my jeep in my drive way around 12 pm after on monday, april 6th. Around 4 pm the same day a fire, that appeared to be electrical in nature, started in the dash inside the factory gps/radio system. The key was not in the ignition. I was alerted by my neighbor that my jeeps emergency flashers were on and it was smoking. We rushed to the jeep, the windows were all burnt black the fire was just smoldering because the doors and windows were shut. My dad and i quickly grabbed two fire extinguishers and when we opened the doors the fire engulfed the entire front dash. After a few uses of the fire extinguishers we managed to put the fire out before too much damage was done. The entire front dash was melted and the windshield was cracked. We suspect the vehicle to be totaled but we have heard back from the insurance company. *Tr

I was driving on highway when hitting 65mph and jeep started to shake uncontrollably. I would have to stop and pull over to a lower speed for it to stop. But if i was in left lane and it started i couldn't swing to breakdown lane so would have to stop immediately in traffic. Very unsafe but better than causing accident. I replaced the steering stabilizer last summer with no relief. Why is jeep not handling this ? Why are people like us spending thousands of dollars on a vehicle just to have cause life threatening issues i have many things and read up on this death wobble of jeep. Is it something i can get lawyers involved ? *Tr

We have a 2007 jeep wrangler unlimited. Every time we hit a pothole or bump in the road, the car does this shake and you lose control. This has happened since we bought the vehicle in 2007 at least 1 time a week. I am luck i have not crashed yet. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. While driving approximately 50 mph over uneven pavement, the vehicle became uncontrollable. The wheels and steering wheel started to wobble. The failure recurred multiple times. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. The technician stated that the front stabilizer link failed and needed to be replaced. The stabilizer link and bolts that secured the links were replaced, however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 83,000. The vin was unavailable.

The passenger side low beam operates intermittently. The problem has been traced to the solid state relay on the tipm printed circuit board. The low beam usually operates after having the selector set to high beam for 20-30 minutes. The only remedy is replacing the tipm at substantial cost for a relatively simple and very important, safety related vehicle function. Replacement tipm units are not readily available, and there is no temporary repair possible. This failure effectively precludes legal operation of the vehicle until the costly repair can be completed. *Tr

My jeep wrangler unlimited x has stalled 3 times while i was driving. The dashboard lights up like a christmas tree and the vehicle's power goes out for what seems like no more than 2 seconds. there have been quite a few other problems with this jeep, but most have been covered under warranty and the lifetime drive-train warranty. re: question #2 i can not give any dates, so i put today's date. I know for a fact that the vehicle has experienced the aforementioned problem 3x's as it is an unforgettable experience. *Tr

My 2007 jeep wrangler x is having problems with putting gas in the tank. It constantly overflows and spills gas all over the side. I've also seen incidents where gas has bounced out of the tank near the neck of the fuel door. *Tr

On 2007 jeep wrangler (lhd), the dashboard airbag warning light and chime randomly and frequently goes on and off. Contacted dealer almost a week ago. Dealer indicated that they are too busy to look at it now. I am waiting for a part (unrelated to the airbag) to come in so the dealer said they will look at airbag when the other part comes in. Although the dealer is not overly concerned the random and frequent light and chime are annoying (which by design probably means it needs more immediate attention). *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. While driving at an unknown speed, the vehicle uncontrollably veered left to right. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the suspension, the bracket damper, the steering damper, the nut hex flank, the bolt hex flank, the bar front, the steering adjuster, and the tie rod drags needed to be repaired. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 103,142.

The warning light for the brake assist, airbag & stability control light up. Took it to the shop and was told that the clock spring was faulty that is why the lights come on. The cost to repair the clock spring is over $800.00. All it does is make it so the warning lights turn off, so i have chosen not to repair it. This is a common problem with the jk wranglers. The problem is if there really is an issue then i won't know because the light is always on. I feel that jeep should repair this as a recall. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that fuel fumes emitted in and around the vehicle. After inspecting the vehicle, the contact noticed a discoloration of fuel leakage on the ground. The vehicle was taken to the dealer. The technician diagnosed that the top of the gas ring was corroded. As a result, the fuel pump and locking ring need to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 72,820.

The air bag lights keeps randomly coming on & off on my 2007 jeep wrangler 2wd. No particular time or day or speed. I can be sitting at a stop light & it comes on. I had it checked & no one could find a problem other then the light coming on. I don't want to wait till i crash to see if the airbag works. *Js

My vehicle developed a horrible wobble in the steering and suspension while driving at about 60 mph on the highway. I slowed down and the wobble stopped but persisted whenever i went approximately 60 mph. I took the vehicle to the dealership, they are very aware of the jeep death wobble however the cost of repairs is mine to bear. This could cause a significant accident, yet jeep is ignoring repairing this. To this day it is still not fixed 100%. *Tr

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that while driving at 55 mph over a pot hole, the vehicle wobbled and vibrated out of control. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired.

I started my 2007 jeep wrangler 4x2 (manual shift) and was sitting in the drive way (the vehicle was not in gear) when the jeep turned itself off and restarted. At the time it restarted itself, the horn began blowing non-stop, the front and rear windshield wipers turned on, washer fluid sprayed from the rear wipers, the dash lights turned on, the radio turned on, and the interior lights turned on. I attempted to turn off the vehicle and remove the key from the ignition. The horn kept blowing, both sets of wipers were on, the interior lights remained on, the engine kept running, the dash lights remained lit, and the radio wouldn't shut off. I tried to restart the vehicle and turn it off, but nothing helped. The horn was blowing like a demon. The neighbors raced over to help me. We manually stalled the jeep to stop the engine, but the horn, radio, lights, and wipers remained on. We disconnected the battery terminal - horn kept blowing. (This wiped out the computer codes). Then we disconnected the horn to keep it from blowing non-stop. This is the 4th time this has happened to my jeep. On thanksgiving day 2014 - the vehicle turned itself off and turned itself back on while driving at 45mph. The abs and compass module has been replaced. Software updates have been completed. The clockspring was replaced. They claim the tipm was replaced in 2007. I called the chrysler customer care and the dealership on all occasions after each incident and they basically told me that if they can't see any codes, then the issue didn't happen. They want to see of video. I need help with my demon jeep - i am totally afraid to drive it and the dealership and chrysler corporation won't help me. That thing will eventually cause a serious accident. These issues began in august 2014 and remains unresolved as of 1/17/2015. *Tr

When driving and vehicle hit a bump with right tire vehicle would begin violently shaking until slowed down to 15 mph. Took to repair shop who diagnosed it with death wobble and replaced lower drag link and installed new tires. No issues so far. Also both floorboards get wet when it rains. *Tr

I have been experiencing an extreme shaking while operating the vehicle. I occurs very randomly and comes on with out notice. It occurs on the highway as well suburban streets and at any speed. I read an article from 08' from another person that had the same issue. It sounded like nothing was done from this organization and the vehicle maker. This is very unsafe situation for owners of this vehicle and is a safety hazard for others on the road. Please respond to this message and let me know if something can and will be done. *Tr

On the 2007 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 2007 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 2007 jeep wrangler (lhd) during an accident or premature deployment when simply driving around. Daimler chrysler has refused to address the safety concern of their faulty clockspring that can cause failure of the vehicle's airbags from properly deploying. *Tr

Car did not have any power when pressing the gas peddle. Engine light was on. Even though car was brought to dealer for service november 1 2014. Two fault codes were found the dealer (papa dodge) replaced egr and gasket valve. I called the dealer about 10 days later and told them the car still did not have power when pressing the gas peddle. The supervisor of the service department took jeep for test drive and said he didn't see a problem. On december 25 engine light came on. On december 26 i was driving about 5 miles per hour and saw smoke came to completed stop. Under the car front in the front under hood was on fire passenger side. Police and fire department was called immediately and put out fire under hood engine. Car was completely burned out. *Tr

I just bought this in aug 2014. I was driving home from work and hit a bump my steer wheel went from side to side for about 5 seconds and the second time it happen i brought it to a dealer they said nothing wrong it happen 4 more times sense then they are now calling it the death wobble. *Tr

Totally integrated power module (tipm) failure causing every electrical system to malfunction - usually at the same time. Alarm/horn, wipers/washer, radio, gauges, etc), to which removing the key from the ignition has no effect. Only solution is to remove battery connection ( and apologize to those around you in traffic for the inconvenient show the vehicle just put on). manufacturer recall of tipms only covered certain manufacture dates, despite the problem not being limited to just that one group of vehicles. repair (replacement of tipm) is > $1000. *Tr

This is the second request i am now sending. My 2007 jeep wrangler caught on fire while driving through some brush on 10/25/2014 and was a total loss. The fire department that responded concluded that it was caused by the catalytic converter as well as my insurance company. Jeep said since i already settled with my insurance company there is nothing they will do. This is the second time i am reporting this incident to you so can someone please get back to me? *Tr

Jeep shuts off when driving on the highway. *Tr

When filling up with fuel at the gas station, when the tank gets near full, the fuel pump will shut off, but not until fuel spits back out of the fuel fill tube, out onto the outside of the jeep and into the ground. There is a lifetime warranty recall for jeep wranglers for this problem, that starts with vehicles manufactured after march 1, 2007. However, our vehicle was manufactured in november, 2006. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler.

The contact had to engage the manual overdrive switch in order to release the vehicle out of park. The independent mechanic diagnosed that the total integrated power module needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 50,000.

Was driving and engine stopped. Coasted to side of road and when stopped smoke was billowing up around me. Got out and tried to put out undercarriage with water and then two fire extinguishers with the help of other motorists that stopped to help. We couldn't extinguish so i called 911 and watched as it was engulfed in flames and burned. *Tr

Steering dampener. Steering box. *Tr

We have had this incident many times before, referred to as the 'death wobble', had the steering pin replaced twice, and new tires, alignment and was fine for 3 months and yesterday it happened again, hit a bump in the road going 45 mph and jeep just started rocking and jumping all over the road, had to pull off the road the make it stop. When are you people going to do something about this????? When someone gets killed????? This is so dangerous and i cannot believe that this has not been recalled, so many people have this and are very upset, has this been looked into???? If you are for safety than this would have been looked into a long time ago!!!!! *Tr

The horn stopped working and then a day later the air bag warninglite indicating malfunction came on intermittently and then stayed on chiming from time to time.it goes off and then comes back on when the vehicle starts moving again.it sometimes goes off when turning right.my mechanic said there have been several complaints about it,it is the clockscrew he said nad when i looked it up ,it was the exact description.pitiful is all i have to say,this is a safety issue and jeep should fix it immediately. *Tr

Driving jeep wrangler and suddenly entire car was engulfed in flames. Car is a total loss. *Tr

Air bag light keeps coming on repeatedly on dash. Took it to a body shop and he says jeeps have a problem with clocksprings causing this issue. *Tr

While driving my jeep wrangler on a public road, the entire electrical system shutdown. This shutdown caused the power steering, brakes and electrical aspects of the vehicle to stop functioning. This is now the second time that this has happened to my vehicle. Once the vehicle was put into "park" , i tried to restart the vehicle with no success. The second time the vehicle started back up with no incident. There are many dangers involved with a vehicle suddenly "shutting down". My research has shown that there are many other jeep vehicle owners that are experiencing similar experiences. *Tr

I have a 2007 jeep wrangler with a 6 speed manual transmission. I have had several instances that while starting from a stopped position such as at a stop sign the transmission suddenly pops out of first gear. It actually happens so much that i am having to start in second gear as to avoid the loud horrifying sound that it makes and, more importantly, avoid sitting in the middle of an intersection trying to get it back in gear so i don't get killed by oncoming vehicles. The problem with starting in second gear is #1 i shouldn't have to and #2 sometimes it wants to stall starting in that gear especially if you are starting on a hill. I have taken it to the dealer for repairs 2 times, but they tell me that they have never heard of this ever happening. I guess they never look on this website. I called chrysler to complain, but i never heard back from them. This is a serious problem that nhtsa needs to investigate before someone gets killed if that hasn't happened already. How many people have to die before something gets fixed? The word safety is in the title. Be proactive not reactive for once and investigate this serious problem before anyone dies. *Tr

I have had 4 electrical/engine events with the most recent occurring in july, 2014 after picking up my kids from camp. As i slowed down for a light, all dash board lights came on, the radio went dead and the engine cut out. Luckily i was coming to a stop at the light, and as i was looking at the dash trying to figure out what happened, the jeep then turned back on.please help. *Tr

I have been having trouble with my 2007 jeep wrangler unlimited x air bags. I will be driving down the road and the air bag lights will randomly ding and go off. Both the air bag light on my dash board and the passenger air bag light will keep randomly go off. I have done nothing different, i haven't even adjusted the seats or belts so i'm not sure why this is happening, but i do not feel safe at all. I'm afraid the air bags are going to either randomly deploy or not work if i were to ever get in a wreck. *Tr

Purchased goodyear wrangler sr-a 255/55/17 a little over a year ago. About 3 months after purchase my front left tires was flat and unrepairable. At that time didn't think much of it. But as time went by i noticed that once i hit speeds of abt 50 mph my front end started to shake severely. I assumed that i needed a front end alignment or balancing. However coming home several days ago my front and back right tires blew. Luckily i was driving at a low rate of speed and was able to control my vehicle and no other vehicles were passing or behind me. It could have been a different outcome if so. I decided to do web research to see if there were any similar issues and have found many with the same problem. I really do think goodyear needs to really look into this. I replace the tires with another brand and not once has my front end shaken like previously. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. While attempting to drive the vehicle, the transmission violently shifted out of first gear. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer. The manufacturer was notified and the vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 56,000.

I was slowing while i was approaching a red light. The light turned green and i began my right turn. At this point, the front wheels wobbled and the steering tightened, taking me into the path of an oncoming vehicle (2010 ford f-150) slowing to a stop for his red light. Upon impact, the seat belt (in use at the time) failed to actuate and the airbags failed to deploy, the driver's seat moved forward, throwing me into the steering wheel and windshield. I sustained a minor head laceration and impact trauma to the right chest. the combine speed of the crash was approximately 25-30 miles per hour. a passenger in the other vehicle was treated and released from the local hospital. *Tr

At 60 mph my jeep started violently shake. I had to pull off the interstate in the emergency lane. This has happened over 10 times. I took it to the dealer and he said ball joints and steering damper was bad. $1,100.00 to fix it. It is still not steering correctly. There is a popping in the steering wheel and shakes somewhat when i hit a bump in the road. This is very dangerous. I had no idea there was a death wobble in the jeep i loved so much. I will be trading the jeep for a different suv after i get the wobble fixed again. I am expecting a grand baby in dec and there is no way i will put it in the jeep. *Tr

On 6 june, i noticed my jeep jk air bag indicator illuminated and then disappears within a minute. Later on it started again and has now frequently turns on and off approximately one minute or more but less than two minutes regardless of the speed of driving. I've researched about this issue and several other owners had the same issue (2007-08 models). Chrysler co said it is not a recall, but according to several website says it is and is covered on an extended warranty or 150,000 miles. *Tr

While driving westbound on the highway to parumph nv the engine stalled out at approximately 65 mph. I was lucky there was no traffic going my direction and the highway way fairly straight. I was able to controll the vehicle well enough to get it to the side of the road without incident. Complete loss of power could have had tragic results under different circumstances. I'm getting rid of this death trap. this happened once before on a trip to searchlight a year ago, engine stall / roughly the same speed. The dealership that repaired it in henderson said it was a faulty maf sensor. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that while driving various speeds over 40 mph, the front end of the vehicle suddenly began to shake uncontrollably.

I was driving on the highway, hit a bump in the road while changing lanes. The car started shaking very violently. I has to pull off the road slowing to about 40 mph in order to regain control of the vehicle and stop the shaking. When the shaking starts the entire vehicle shakes so violently it is hard to steer or even focus on the road because you are shaking too. I have had the vehicle in to jeep dealerships on a number of occasions and they all tell me the suspension is fine. Finally this last time, after complaining of the "death shake" as i have come to research and discover, they were able to put a larger steering dampener on my vehicle than was there in order to control the shaking. I still feel vibrations at expressway speeds but it is not violent shaking anymore. This repair cost over $250. *Tt

While driving over 55 mph on highway there is a death shake that start only letting up on the gas will it stop. *Tr

Vehicle experiences violent shaking that requires you to dramatically slow down to stop. Wobbles back and forth to an extreme that control is nearly lost. Completely stock vehicle with factory replacement tires. Tires are balanced and vehicle is aligned within spec. Online research states this is called "death wobble" as result of mismatched fastener sizes in factory assembly. *Tr

Was driving down highway at 55 mph when the vehicle all the sudden started shaking violently. The steering wheel was shaking out of control, the front wheels were rapidly going back and forth. I had no control over the vehicle and nearly went off the road. I had to slow the vehicle down, in traffic, to about 35 before the shaking stopped. About 5 miles later down the road it happened again. I once again had to slow the vehicle down to stop the issue. The weather conditions were normal, the road conditions were good. after the incident, i took the vehicle to a repair shop and had some steering parts replaced. *Tr

My 2007 jeep wrangler x (just purchased this past saturday 3/15/14) overflows gasoline when filling it up. It doesn't indicate like other vehicles that it's nearing full by shutting off, it keeps going and splashes out, every time you fill it. *Tr

Violent shaking at 50 mph had to slow to 30 mph would happen with gradual corners crossing uneven pavement ie. On ramp. I replaced steering damper which seemed to alleviate problem. The vehicle has stock configuration the same brand and size of tires it was originally equipped with. *Tr

Experience very loud and noisy exhaust manifolds, dealer found both intake manifolds to be defective and leaking , warranty repair and replaced both. #2 leak found in power steering, dealer stated leaks in lines, rack , and pump, warranty on all but the lines,#3 also found catalytic converter leak, recommend replacement (again happens to be under warranty) #4 found small hole in intermediate pipe, recommended replacement . #5 looking further dealership found cylinder head to be leaking!!!!!!!!!!!!! And yes, covered under warranty. Now i am beginning to wonder about this dealership, as i have never used them before not did i but the jeep from them. .#6 tech stated some wear in all ball joints , recommended replacement . #7 found steering damper to have a leak, recommended replacement, now as anyone can se there seems to be many issues related to my 07 jk. *Tr

I was driving approximately 55-60mph, there were some mild tar bumps in the road that i drove over and the car proceeded to the death wobble. It is exactly as everyone else has noted, the jeep felt like all 4 wheels were coming off, the jeep shook voilently, was extremely hard to handle. I slowed my speed and pulled off the road. The car felt like it was going to come apart. This is a known problem to chrysler and to this organization, why won't you do something about it????? With only 33k miles, i now have to get a new car because i am in fear of driving this one. If this had happened in the middle lane of an expressway....it could have been tragic and deadly....is that what you are waiting for? Hope it isn't anyone you know when it does happen!

While driving on interstate and immediately after crossing over a bridge, the front end and steering wheel began to violently shake. Braking did not bring the condition under control. Fortunately i was in the right lane and able to pull onto the right shoulder. The shaking stopped when my speed fell below 25mph. I purchased this vehicle at approx 50,000 miles. This condition has never occurred before. Clearly there is potential for outright loss of steering control, or potential for collision from behind due to need for rapid deceleration while driving at a highway speeds. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that while driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. In addition, the vehicle would exhibit an abnormal noise when accelerating and when the vehicle sporadically failed to start. The vehicle was towed to an authorized dealer where it was diagnosed that the engine needed to be replaced due to the connection rod failing. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The manufacturer was contacted and advised that the vehicle was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 09v436000 (power train). The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 70,000.

The transmission slips out of gear when driving causing the driver to giggle the stick shift and get it in gear. This takes attention away from driving and getting the car in gear. *Tr

I have loved this jeep since the day i got it, at about a few years after owning it i had experienced something i just couldn't believe!!! I was going down the road at 45 miles an hour when i must have hit a bump in the road, my jeep continued to shake violently and i could not stop it unless i pulled off the road and tried to come to a complete stop. I then went directly to my mechanic who then inspected the vehicle, he found nothing wrong and said he did not experience it himself. I have replaced all the shocks,new tires, brakes, steering pin and still have that problem, i did not know what it was until i started looking it up on the internet, there is even a video of someone driving a jeep exactly like mine and it is doing the same thing. I have seen hundreds of complaints on this, if something is not done someone is going to get killed when they are in ice or rain!!!! Why hasn't anyone stepped up to have this fixed? I have called jeep on it and they said they have had complaints but no one is doing anything about it! Really?? How about you climb into my vehicle and have this "death wobble" happen to you with your child in it??? I am 2 payments away from paying off my jeep, this just disgusts me! Something needs to be done!!!!!!! *Tr

I bought the jeep in july of 2013. Every time i fill the tank the fuel spills out on the ground, me, and the jeep's body. This happens at every station, every time. i have taken to mathematically figuring out the amount of fuel i need to add to the tank at each fill up so it doesn't fill, but if i'm wrong it spills out all over me! *Tr

I started the vehicle and put the windshield wipers on due to the weather and smoke started coming out from the right side of vehicle caught it on time and it was the power module fuse box. Someone is going to get hurt if jeep don't fix this problem. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that while driving approximately 40 mph over a road bump, the vehicle and the steering wheel began to vibrate excessively and caused the contact to lose control of the vehicle. The contact erroneously drove off the roadway. The contact had the vehicle diagnosed by an independent dealer, who replaced the steering stabilizer but the defect was not remedied. The manufacturer was notified and no solution was offered. The failure mileage was 59,000. Updated 03/11/14*lj

Purchased 2007 wrangler sahara new. Maintained vehicle as suggested by manufacturer. Noticed early on the 3.8 l v6 burned oil. Was told this was normal, so i added a quart of oil every 1,000 miles. At 51,000 miles noticed a loud knock. Immediately took the vehicle in for service and was told that the engine was blown. I had changed the oil at 50,000 miles but somehow lost all of the oil in 1,000 miles. Never had a check engine light or oil warning light, no oil showing on the ground. Dealer wanted $7,000 to install remanufactured long block. Would not call chrysler on my behalf even though they had been the one servicing the vehicle. Chrysler refused any assistance since out of warranty. Three different customer service representatives refused to allow me to speak with anyone above them as the decision (made in one hour) was final. They refused to give me an address or fax number so that i could submit my service records to show that i had maintained the vehicle. In fact, they indicated that not only was a quart of oil every 700-1,000 miles was perfectly normal, that is was also normal to check the oil level at least once a week when fueling the vehicle. A quick review on the internet shows thousands with this problem. 650 signatures are on one petition alone that show this is a problem that chrysler refuses to acknowledge. *Tr

When filling tank the auto cutofff does not work on tank and fuel overflows and spills/sprays. *Tr

The 2007 jeep wrangler unlimited x model began violent shaking in the front end at highway speeds. The shaking started mildly then became violent. I slowed down and the shaking subsided but this is extremely dangerous when the traffic flow is moving at faster rates. An on-line search indicates that this is common in this model. I believe this should be recalled and fixed. *Tr

Gas tank spillover. The gas tank does not trigger the gas pump at the station to stop. I cannot fill my tank without having gas spill out or overflow. I don't recall when i first noticed it happening but approximately 1 year ago or a little more is when i recall. I think it is a safety hazard when it keeps spilling out.

Shortly before taking vehicle in for brakes, the abs/esp/bas and traction lights came on. Repair shop stated this would reset after brakes replacement. It did not. Now the lights are on all the time. I have no abs,no traction control and vehicle is all over the road in inclement conditions. Also the wipers won't turn off after car is turned off and key is removed. They operate on low or high no intermittent. The fluid works and the rear wipers and fluid works, but the wipers wont turn off unless i remove the fuse. And now the cruise control will not work. I was told the tipm is bad, but looking at reviews online. It seems like this is a safety concern for all these issues and should be cause for recall. *Tr

Fuel does not shutoff automatically until fuel overflows. Spills all over the side of the vehicle and on the ground

I have a 4dr 2007 jeep wrangler sahara unlimited. 60k+ miles and no matter what gas station or what position i place the nozzle into the gas port when the tank fills it will shoot gas out all down the side of my jeep onto the ground and on myself. *Tr

This vehicle was classified as having excellent off-road capabilities. After it's first excursion off-road, the clutch throwout bearing was found to be rattling and had come apart. A full clutch replacement was completed with all new components by a licensed and certified mechanic with excellent outcome. 1 month after the clutch replacement the clutch pedal suddenly went to the floor and would not release the clutch. Replacement of the clutch slave, master and hydraulic line as well as a full hydraulic fluid flush yielded no success even with pressure and vacuum applications to bleed the system. This failure of plastic parts designed for off-road applications is a major safety issue. This system is fed by the brake fluid reservoir and could compromise the braking system if it fails. Numerous tsb's and a possible recall were noted but the dealer notified me that the vin was not covered under the recall even though it was within the scope of the recall covered years, make and model. Will have jeep finish the repair at no cost since it seems to be a flawed design. *Tr

I was going straight at a 4 way interception and i put first gear and a heavy truck almost hit me with my son in the back of my vehicle. this vehicle has problems with first and third gear. It jumps from 1st gear to neutral and from third gear to neutral and now second gear jumps to neutral as well. So when my incident happened i was going straight and i could not even put second gear and the truck almost hit me. Thank god nothing happen but i am writing this report because it could happen to anybody else or it could happen to me again. And just to take it to the jeep chrysler dealer they are charging money just to check the problem. I think is a recall and this needs to be address. I spoke to chris from the corporate chrysler office and he was not very helpful in regards to this issue. He seem not to care what the incident could of been. this is a 2007 jeep wrangler 6 speed manual. I am very dissapointed with the jeep wranglers. I got this truck because it was recommended by a friend of mine and since i have had problems and unfortunately this could lead to something fatal. I think they had this problem for a while now but nobody has ever file a complain. And i feel for the rest of the wrangler owners who are experiencing the same problems and one day could lead to something very unexpected. I just hope that filing this report will help nhtsa realizes that the jeep wranglers have been having issues with manual transmission and somebody who can make jeep chrysler listen to my story and not ignore it.

Fuel back flows out of the fuel filler neck at gas stations when full, no matter how slow i run the nozzle. Chrysler has determined that my build date is before their tsb, so it is not covered. my solution is to stuff paper towels at the nozzle during every fill, which soaks up the excess fuel spillage. Not very friendly to the environment, but if it is ok with chrysler, then i guess it is ok with me. *Tr

My airbag light came on the dashboard. When i turn the steering wheel to the left or right the light will go off then come back on. If i am going straight the light will stay on until a turn is made. Reading on the blogs it is definitely the clock spring. I know there is a recall on rhd wranglers, and this is crazy. I would think they use the same part in all wranglers! *Tr

When traveling at 45 mph i made a slight left turn in the road and went over a long small bump in the road maybe from a road seam that was filled in. Both wheels hit it at the same time and the jeep slowly started shaking until it became very violent inside the jeep. I had to slow my speed down to approx 10 mph to get it to stop. I happened to have a coworker behind me who saw the whole thing from behind and said the car was shaking back and forth so much that it looked like my rims were almost touching the road since my tire treads stayed straight. It felt like i had 4 flats. I changed the steering dampener and the shocks to rancho brand which are larger than the oem but it happened again but not nearly as bad since i now know when it could possibly happen. If there were cars next to me i would have hit them. This is a very real problem which is scary. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you. *Tr

Im trying to resolve a potential problem with my vehicle.i have contacted the manufacture of a problem the problem is called a death wobble ive had this problem since november it shook so bad i had to drive of the highway i took it to my garage were i have my vehicle mantained he thought it could be the rotors and brakes so i had him change them it still wasn't the problem it happen again i took it back and said it looks like the suspension is tight so this july we went on a trip it happened again this time in the second lane it shook so bad i had to steer it to the the brake down lane cut every one off likely they was no crash i really only drive this car back and fourth to work ijust have sent in july a letter to the maufactor and to to my local state rep one got back to me and said the vehicle is out of warrenty and the ep has still not responded back to me and now i just learned the the manufacture anologe there is a problem with the front end suspension but not offering to fix it im letting u know that i not paying for this they know theres a problem and i have not modafide my jeep its all still factory built so if you hear of a crash with this vehicle because this is not a serious issue its all on them

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated while driving various speeds, the vehicle shook violently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing but they were unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vin was not available. The approximate failure mileage was 36,000.

While driving on paved, city boulevard, i heard a very short, almost inaudible "beep" warning, but saw no warning lights. About a week later, i heard the same very short "beep", again, no warning light. About a week later, a "beep" accompanied by the check oil light. I stopped checked oil. I was low. This is the first time i've had low oil on this vehical, bought new. After about a week more of driving the check oil light again came on and i heard a sudden loud knocking from the engine. A diagnostic indicates the engine is "seized" and needs replacing. At less than 5700 miles of easy driving, i find this incredulous.

First occurrence dec 6th 2012, backing out of an inclined driveway. Vehicle seemed as if it had no power, stalled, spitting and sputtering like it was starving for gas. Finally got it out of the driveway and was about 15 miles from closest jeep dealership in ocala fl, and nursed it there, spitting and sputtering and stalling the whole trip. Left it overnight and got a call the next day where they had found the problem and a couple of other things wrong (unrelated to the problem) i approved the fixes and after $677.00 later drove off the lot. The only thing i can see on the invoice that would have caused the original problem is a line that reads "cleaner-fuelsystem" and has a $59.00 part and a $106.00 labor charge. On january 13th 2013 it starts acting up again. I take it back to same dealership the next day and complain that i'm not going to come in every month and pay a $90.00 diagnostics fee for something they said was fixed. So they plug it in and the code tells them i was running "lean" however they have no idea this time what's wrong. And of course it's not doing it so they "can't fix what's not broke". Between jan and july it has done this many times, in the beginning it was once or twice a month but now will do it almost every trip. When it stalls completely i loose ps & pb, very dangerous. It now stalls at speeds of around 50 mph and i just have to pull onto shoulder to restart. Sometimes it restarts right away and other times i have to sit a short bit. It seems to be related to longer trips, 1-2 hours. But sometimes will happen after being on the road for 15 minutes. The stalling at 50 mph and loosing ps & pb is the most concerning in traffic. *Tr

Driving on 4 lane non-interstate road in the rain at approximately 40 mph. Drove through a puddle that seemed to affect the left front tire only and the front end began to shake violently as though something had came loose. There was a strong pull to the left also. I'm thinking i will have to get the front end checked out, stopped at a grocery store for a few things and when headed home the shake is still there, but not so violent. Parked at home overnight and headed out the next day to get it looked at and there is no shake whatsoever, vehicle drives like it always has. In doing some research on the internet i see a problem others seem to be having exactly like mine and it's being called the "death wobble". It has not done this since this one time but it has me worried that it will at any time, and could be very dangerous. *Tr

I bought a new 2007 jeep wrangler death wobble started at 70,000 miles mark mitsubishi in phoenix az has not helped me out at all it goes every 10,000 miles on me and they just replaced my tires. Death wobble occurred the day after and before. How do we all get together who have this problem and get jeep to be responsible for a defective front end. Death wobble is not only scary it is dangerous and i hope that it doesn't take someone getting killed for them to finally replace it. *Tr

I engaged my electronic swaybar disconnect when i went off-roading. When i returned to pavement, i tried to reconnect by pressing the button on the instrument panel, but the light continued flashing on the dash. I took my 2007 jeep wrangler rubicon in to the local jeep dealer and was told that it was not covered by warranty. After doing some research online, i found that this is a very common issue among rubicon owners. here is the link to some others on a jeep forum experiencing the same issue: http://www.jk-forum.com/jk-electrical-lighting-sound-systems-13/warning-rubicon-owners-your-swaybar-will-get-you-177489/page2/ this is a real issue, as most jeep owners that have this electronic swaybar disconnect option use it off-road, far from civilization. In some cases, this defect has caused their vehicle to freeze up. This could be deadly in some of the really hot or really cold locations. *Tr

Steering column shakes violently after hitting small bumps, usually in a turn. Very close to causing accidents due to the need to brake quickly to slow down and eliminate the shaking. Its very disappointing this is not published nor anyone acted on this. Incident has now happened approx 20 times and vehicle has no after market parts. *Tr

My jeep wrangler 2007 shakes so violently that i can no longer drive it. I am afraid that i may kill someone or my self or my kid. It is the scariest thing ever. At three (3) different occasions i almost crash. I heard so many jeep owners have the same problem, so why chrysler are not doing something about this serious problem? They tried to tell me its front end or a tire issue. I have changed my steering damper, my stabilizer bar and bushings. Had it aligned and bought new tires and balance. Problem still exist. The vehicle has been towed back to the dealer as of this morning. And they are trying to stick me with a bill for any repairs done to rectify this wobbling issue. I do not think that i, the consumer should have to pay anything for this manufacture defect. $40, 000.00 is not cheap, they made a killing from me and now that i have six months left, nobody wants to assist or do the right thing. I love my wrangler. Always dream about owning one since high school. I hoping you can do something about this issue. I have no extra money lying around.

On the 2007 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 2007 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 2007 jeep wrangler (lhd) during an accident or premature deployment when simply driving around. Daimler chrysler has refused to address the safety concern of their faulty clockspring that can cause failure of the vehicle's airbags from properly deploying. *Tr

Stock 2007 with fairly new original size tires wrangler with "death wobble" at 55 miles an hours the jeep begin to shake violently and i had to slow below 45 for the wobble to stop. After i had the recommended upgrade to the steering dampener i was traveling through a canyon on i-70 and went over an expansion joint. I almost lots control and hit the car next to me related to this wobble. This jeep has been taken this vehicle to the dealer 5 times in the last three months, they have replaced every possible part on the front end of this car. The tires are from 2009 with almost 2/3 tread remaining. The dealership is at a lost for why this problem continues. I have decided to sell the jeep back to the dealer because i am no longer able to feel safe and will not take my family in this care. The wobble is very unpredictable and therefore very hard to duplicate but none the less it is very possible to lose control when this occurs. Please look into why this is so common before someone is killed. *Tr

I purchased a 2007 jeep wrangler unlimited sahara. The dealership supposedly did an oil change and after 3 months and about 1,800 miles of driving my oil light came on. I checked the oil and it was low. I took it to a local shop(valvoline quick lube) to get an oil change and they mentioned the oil plug was stripped and that there was silicone caulk to help seal the oil plug. At this point i had them replace the oil plug and was content with the service. After driving 500-600 miles after the oil change i checked the oil and it was low as if it was disappearing. No visible leaks in my garage and none in my parking spot at work. At this point i had to add 2 quarts of oil to get to read on the dip stick. This went on until my next oil change and i had valvoline look for any visual leaks. They mentioned nothing that would explain the massive amount of oil being consumed. Finally, in march of 2013, took my jeep to a chrysler dealership to have them start an oil consumption test. After the first 500 miles they stated there was loss of oil and made there marks and resealed everything for the next 500 miles. I took it back in at the next 500 mile mark, now mind you everything is sealed so they know nothing was tampered with, performance chrysler called me and told me that there was significant oil loss and they stated the rings on the pistons are bad and need to be replaced at a cost of $3,300. My complaint is, my jeep at this point has 47000 miles on it and they are telling me the rings are bad. I've had vehicles that lasted 120,000+ and no problems with the rings on the pistons. I have talked to a couple of mechanics and said there should be no way the rings should have gone bad that fast. *Tr

I took my wife's 2007 jeep wrangler jk (4 door automatic) to courthouse shell here locally to get the state inspection done (my first time for this since purchasing it on july 1st 2012 from checkered flag toyota in greenbrier). I received a call saying that the horn did not work, what did i want to do? My wife had said that it had been working the previous week. Well, i said that i want it fixed. The mechanic showed me that the fuse in the fuse-box was not getting any power and they needed more time to troubleshoot it, so they kept it overnight, they then incorrectly said it was a simple relay which they would order and receive later that second day, and they finally figured out that the air bag and the horn were incapacitated due to a faulty $269 airbag clockspring assembly which had to be special ordered from a dealership, so they ended keeping it over the weekend, the steering wheel had been disassembled and would cost more in labor to reassemble. Another option given that he explained to me that he could run a jumper wire to a pushbutton switch to make the horn work but the airbag would not be guaranteed to function as needed in an accident. I made the safe decision to have them replace the entire assembly. I was quite upset though to have to dish out $389.75 total for parts and labor. I have the receipt to show it in the event that jeep ever decides to recall that flimsy and unsafe assembly. There seems to be many complaints lodged regarding this same issue online. Considering that this issue not only affects the horn but also the airbag system which was unknowingly disabled for a week or so, the safety of the driver should always be paramount. Thank god that my wife did not have an accident, the airbag would most likely not have deployed. I will be taking this up with jeep. *Tr

This is my 7th jeep - purchased as used with 65279 miles on it. Within a week from purchase the transmission popped out of 1st gear while starting from a dead stop. Very loud and startling and i thought it was me being not used to this vehicle. No further incidents for about a month and it happened again causing me suddenly stop when pulling into traffic and nearly getting t-boned. A few weeks later it happened again and i began to talk with other jeep owners and found this was, and still is, an ongoing problem with jeep wranglers from 2007-current. Further research on my part led to finding a tsb #21-001-10 rev a dated 4-20-2010. This popping out of gear happens very sporadically and without any warning, has caused me to nearly become in an accident (t-bone or rear ended) by the sudden, almost explosive stop one makes when it happens. About a month ago this began to slowly happen more often - to the point that i got in the habit of holding the transmission in 1st gear so it would not pop out. When i had this vehicle to the dealer i bought it from for routine service, i asked the service tech. About the transmission issue and was advised that it was a known problem and should be covered under the power train warranty. This popping out began to happen as often as 3 times a day resulting in more "close calls" and, tsb in hand, i scheduled the problem to be corrected at the dealer. I have been advised that this is a $1200.00 repair and, after the warranty payment, i will owe about $400.00. This really is a safety issue that has been ongoing for some time and, i think merits further investigation by you folks. I see recalls for the wrangler for things like floor mats and automatic transmission sensors which "may" cause an accident - this issue has been known for some time to the manufacturer and documented by tsb referenced above. Thank you for your time. *Tr

Over time the stock l/f tire rubbed through the brake line causing the l/f caliper to lock up wearing down the l/f brake pads and overheating the rotor. The brake hose, caliper , brake pads and front brake rotors needed to be replaced. I had an independent mechanic look at this and he believes it is a defect in the design on the vehicle. The stock l/f tire should never touch the brake line within the turning radius of the vehicle. I was very lucky that i didn't travel very far with the caliper locked on the wheel, it could of led to a fire. Chrysler did not claim any fault and charged me for the repair. I have found other similar complaints posted online. *Tr

This has now happened several times at several different locations when fueling that the pump will stop and then within seconds afterwards gasoline shoots out all over the vehicle the ground and whomever is pumping the fuel. This is very frustrating and dangerous. *Tr

This was one of the worst times since i bought my jeep used in oct of 2011 that it did this horrible shaking between 55-60 mph. It has done it several times since then and recently was worse than ever!! It started at 40 mph and continued even over 60 mph it was so bad i needed to pull over, as i couldn't control it. I have since read online that this is an issue many jeep owners face-especially 2007. I am going to contact jeep as i want it fixed, i could have crashed if i weren't in the far right lane on the highway at the time of incident!!! It needs to be addressed and recalled to be repaired. I'm hoping jeep and my local dealer can fix it and it never happens again! *Tr

Bought 2007 jeep wrangler unlimited x in april 2010. 2 months later while filling it up at the gas station the gas came pouring back out. I thought pump was broken actually informed clerk. Happened again 3 fill-ups later. Around that time started having a shimmy in front end. Brought it back to dealer on several occasions. Was told they never heard of gas coming back out i must be doing something wrong and the shimmy was "normal" for jeeps. Been having major issues with this truck it has been in the shop more than any vehicle i have ever owned. I've only bought used. I've had to have the 02 sensors changed 4 times. I have my tires balanced several times. My tires rotated. Alignments, etc. I have also replaced the steering damper. Fast forward to 2013. Shimmy is so bad i almost took out another driver. Thankfully i'm a commercially trained driver otherwise it could have ended badly. Still have gas pouring out every fill up. 02 sensors still keep crapping out. Head gaskets had to be replaced already. I finally had enough and told dealer they need to fix no more games and i find out about the tsb for the steering damper. Then i also have to be told that my main rear oil seal is now leaking and my tranny coolant lines are leaking??? Oh and was told that all this was normal for jeeps as well???? Really!!!!! The truck only has 66k miles on it. It's all original no lift kits, no off roading, nothing.... This is bull... For the amount of money i paid for this vehicle somebody should be doing something. I find his site and lo and behold... I'm not the only one... Unbelievable!!!! *Tr

I was driving on the freeway in excess of 70mph when i hit a very minor imperfection in the road. The vehicle immediately began to shake/hop and steering become uncontrollable i nearly caused a major pile up on i-35. This has happened numerous times and i've owned the car very little time. Luckily i gained control before a catastrophic event happened. This is 100% a jeep design flaw it is referred to as "death wobble" and no if ands or buts; they need to be held accountable. All we as buyers ask is to be put in a safe and functional vehicle. My child has to ride in this car. There are literally thousands of reports of the same problem all over the nation. It is not ok for this to go on any longer. Something has to be done lives are at stake. Is that not important anymore?

Driving my stock 2007 jeep wrangler on i-77 in charleston wv at 65mph. Started rounding a left hand curve in the road when i hit some minor bumps in the road. The vehicle started bouncing and shaking violently nearly causing me to lose control of the vehicle. I was able to slow and pull off to the side of the road. The shake went away at about 15-20 mph. I thought for sure a wheel was coming off. I slowed my speed but this still happened three more times before i could get it to royal jeep in charleston where i had to leave it and rent a car for the night. After describing the incident to the service advisor stated it sound like a bad steering damper shock and stated that he has dealt with this problem before. I picked up the vehicle the next day to a tune of $205.00 plus the rental car($64.00) and drove back to cleveland oh without another incident.

This has to do with the death wobble that is highly been broadcasted via internet. I have a mint, completely stock jeep wrangler x unlimited. First year of the 4 door. It has not been modified at all. As said it is mint condition. I made the mistake of not driving it much, especially on highway first several years i had it. I drove a older car as my everyday vehicle. The jeep was and is my toy. I had to start driving it more in 2011, that's when the problem was clear. Whenever i am driving at over 50-55 mph, and i hit a bump or groove in road it randomly goes into this violent shake. The same shake described and seen on the internet. I finally did take it to a jeep dealer, not expecting much. Due to the fact that my warranty was expired. But due to the fact of the very low mileage and showroom appearance of car, i was able to convince them to address problem at no charge to me, so for. I say so for, due to the fact that the dealer has replaced numerous parts underneath, but problem still there. Now i am waiting for decision from higher ups at jeep to decide what to do with me. I feel that there is some engineering problems overlooked when designed and built. They(jeep) know they have a major problem.i am very surprised that there has not been a death involved with this. It is serious. My wife refuses to drive in my jeep. She calls it christines little sister carla. I am stuck. I cannot trade vehicle in, for i would be worried that the next owner/driver would not be as lucky as i have been, and not been in a accident. *Tr

Every time i pump gas now, the pump will stop and then discharge a fairly large amount of gas. Probably around a half gallon. I feel that with these discharge of gas being every time i fill up is a safety issue and needs to be looked in to. If there is ever a spark when it discharges it will indefinitely cause a fire that has the likely hood of causing injury or death to me and whoever else is around when it happens. Also, i know that it is not only my jeep that is having the problem. My friends jeep does the same thing. He told me that one time the pump did not stop and gas was shooting from his gas tank. *Tr

When filling the fuel tank, fuel will overflow out of the filling tube, thus causing several ounces of fuel to spill out. Thus coating the side of my jeep as well as the group with highly flammable gasoline. It doesn't seem to matter how fast or slow the tank is filled, it overflows every time. Gas also contains aromatic hydrocarbons such as benzene, toluene, ethylbenzene, and xylenes (btex) these chemicals are harmful to both humans and the environment. *Tr

On the 2007 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 2007 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 2007 jeep wrangler (lhd) during an accident or premature deployment when simply driving around. my local chrysler dealership has refused to address the safety concern of their faulty clockspring that can cause failure of the vehicle's airbags from properly deploying. *Tr

Uncontrollable wobble in front end on highway causing vehicle to be unsafe (referred to as the death wobble)

I was traveling on the freeway yesterday afternoon 11/1/12 driving at 60 mph. While driving out of no where the jeep's front end started shaking out of control. It felt like the front end was about to fall off.. I could not control the jeep at this point so i stepped on my brakes and slowed the vehicle to about 20 mph before the shaking stopped. Today i took it in to a local alignment shop so they can diagnose it and they told me that the whole front steering assembly is about shot! They specifically said that the most wear was on the tie rods and front track bar in which will cause the geometry of the steering to be thrown off. They called it the "death wobble" and that it was common in these jeeps. I truly think that jeep needs to open a recall for these parts ( front track bar/ tie rod assembly) before some one is killed! I do not want to think about what would of happened if i didn't gain control of the vehicle yesterday. I could of caused a pile up and killed someone if not myself on i5.. Thank god my kids were not with me and no accident occured. Please assist in this complaint as there has been hundreds of complaints about this very same problem all over the web yet nothing has been addressed with chrysler. thank you. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6)

About one second after the pump shuts off automatically 6 to 8oz of fuel is expelled out of the vehicle running out all over the car and ground. Was found to be faulty inlet check valve on wranglers manufactured between 03/01/07 and 03/31/08. My vehicle was manufactured on 11/08/06 but i am experiencing the same problem. Jeep refuses to rectify the problem as my manufacture date is out of the specified date range. I believe it should be expanded as i have read about many other jeeps having this same problem. This problem is a dangerous safety concern that should be repaired at the cost of the manufacturer because of a defective part. *Tr

While driving at approx 40 mph, jeep struck a small (very shallow) pothole. Front end of jeep began to shake violently. This has happened on two other occassions in the last month, all between 40 and 50 mph.

Manufacture reimbursement? any information regarding this issue would be appreciated. *Tr

My jeep has the death wobble, has now for years. As advised ihave replaced tires and had an allignment, fixed it for a while, now its back, replaced tires and allignment also balanced and now replacing the steering damper. There are complaints about this all over the internet. Every mechanic i called had heard of it or experienced it. There have been news pieces done about it and now chrysler has issued a technical bulletin blaming it on everyone else but their poor design. They should e held accountable. I have not lifted my jeep and nothing besides tires and now this steering damper has been replaced - so all stock. They need to be forced to get to the root of this and reimburse people for the repairs and labor time it takes to try to figure out how to fix this. It may not in and of itself be a safety issue but the only way to stop it once it starts is to stop completely and that is extremely dangerous at 65 miles an hour on the highway. Besides the fact that it has to cause damage to the other parts of the car because of the violent shaking and that could be dangerous in and of itself depending on what is damaged. It is ridiculous that chrysler has not been held accountable for this yet by someone with the authority to force them to fix it. *Tr

I have been experiencing the "death wobble" on my 2007 jeep wrangler sahara for the past year now. When it first started i replaced the tires and it appeared to correct the problem for 8-9 months. Then the problem re-appeared so i had the tires rotated. Corrected the problem for approximately 5000 miles. Just this morning while driving into work my jeep started to shake violently starting at 50 mph. In the past, my jeep will experience the death wobble between 50-60 mph. I need to slow down to around 20 mph for the wobble to stop. This is not safe! Especially driving in rush hour and i need to constantly slow down to speeds below the minimum speed limit requirement in my state. All parts on my jeep are stock / straight from the assembly line (except for the new tires, air filter, oil, and wiper blades). I can be the only driver to this vehicle as other drivers in my family refuse to drive because of the death wobble. I haven't brought it into a jeep dealer yet (although after reading threads on the internet it appears jeep denies it to be an issue). this is not safe and this is my primary vehicle. It is happening to many jeep owners and if jeep wants to keep its business they should start addressing the issue... *Tr

While sitting in the driveway, the horn began beeping on its own for a few seconds at a time and then stop. I eventually disconnected the horn completely. A few days later, the airbag light came on a blinked intermittently. It still does it to this day. Jeep only has 50,000 miles on it. I took it to the dealership and was told it was a bad clock spring. I also heard of other jeeps having the same problem. *Tr

I bought the jeep new in february/march of 2007. In december 2009, at approximately 45k miles, i heard a loud knocking noise that sounded like it was coming from the bottom end of the engine. Took the jeep to my regular oil change center and they confirmed the knocking sound. I then took the jeep to local dealer who informed me that it was spun bearings and there was metal shavings in the oil pan. They put in a new motor (chrysler offered some assistance after much complaining and arguing on my side, but it still cost me $1,500 as it as out of warranty). now, in august 2012, at a total of 90k miles (approximately 45k on the new motor), the bearings are spun again. This will be the 3rd motor in this jeep. I have the receipts from my regular oil change center showing that i have regularly changed the oil. The service department at the dealer says they are not aware of any other ppl having this issue. However, internet research shows significant numbers of ppl with 2007 jeep wranglers that are having spun bearings at around 45k miles. jeep should be replacing these motors at no cost to the consumer as this appears to be a design defect. *Tr

Was driving down the road about 45 mph, hit a bump and the vehicle began to shake so violently that i was convinced a wheel was about to fall off. I immediately stopped on the side of the road to inspect the vehicle but could find nothing wrong. In researching the problem online i found out that is a common occurrence known as a "death wobble." i was lucky in that i was driving on a rarely traveled back road when the incident occurred, had this happened on a major highway i could see this as a very dangerous situation.

Vehicle would not start. Has done this on multiple occasions. Made a click and started to start but then nothing. Battery is brand new. Further researching online there is numerous automatic jeep jk's with this issue. Apparently an improper ground is the culprit- seems there is enough people having this problem to warrant a recall??

Death wobble - i can drive the jeep down the highway and once it hits above 45 miles an hour it will start to shake extensively. I have to start putting on the break immediately to stop the jeep from shaking and regain control of the vehicle. With the speed limits on the highways 60 - 75 miles an hour the vehicle problem makes it impossible for me to take many highways. This jeep is my only means of transportation to and from work and transporting my children. I have avoided over 5 near miss accidents because of this problem with my children in the vehicle. It has almost cost me my job because of having to avoid traveling in the jeep. *Tr

I have owned this vehicle for over four years. Recently, i needed to remove the spare tire for the first time and noticed a severe crack in the housing support bracket that connected the spare to the rear gate of the vehicle. This bracket has three lug nuts designed to support the spare and, because of the crack, one of the lugs was not providing any support for the approximately 150-pound tire and wheel. A crack around one of the other two lugs would likely cause a complete failure of the housing support, as i doubt one lug could hold the heavy spare and wheel. I believe this part should be recalled immediately. *Tr

While driving down the road at about 40-45mph my right front tire hit a bump. When that happened the entire front end began to vibrate violently. The only thing that cured the issue was to brake the vehicle. Once it got down to about 15mph it finally stopped and i was able to continue. This has been an ongoing issue with this jeep. This has happened before and the dealership replaced tie rods and a steering dampener but it's never gone away completely. *Tr

As i was driving through the entrance to the baltimore harbor tunnel, i hit a bump and the steering wheel began to shake violently on my jeep wrangler. In addition, the front end of the vehicle vibrated and shook violently. I had no place to stop, a bus was behind me, and i had trouble keeping my jeep in one lane. Since there was no place to pull over, i slowed down and when i reached a speed between 15 to 20 miles per hour, the shaking stopped and i was able to continue on. During my trip that day, i had three more episodes of violent shaking as i hit bumps in the road when i was traveling between 50 and 60 miles per hour. I had recently read an article about this problem and this issue appears to be a common problem for jeep wranglers, although i had never experienced the problem before. My jeep is a 2007 4-door wrangler which only has 10,400 miles on it because i usually keep it garaged at a beach home in delaware and i use it only during summer weekends. The jeep is a stock model with no after market modifications. I had driven it home to maryland to have a dealer checkup before i returned the jeep to the beach. The problem happened on my third trip after the dealer service but it was my first trip driving on a highway. My daughter was in the car with me and she and i were extremely disturbed and consider this issue a major safety issue. Since my research indicates this is a widespread problem, i feel strongly the ntsb should take the appropriate action to have chrysler address this issue before there is a fatality. I am extremely thankful that the bus behind me in the baltimore harbor tunnel had good brakes. *Tr

While filling it with gas, it overflows and then clicks off after it has spilled enough to reach the ground. Maybe 2 cups of gas goes all over the body of the vehicle, and onto the ground.

This jeep is a death trap and a money trap. My first incident occurred feb 16th, 2011 and cost 600.00. Needed a new steering dampner which they replaced. Two months later same thing happens and they replace the same piece with the newer steering dampner. Two days ago the same thing happens again and now i need to spend more money to fix the same problem. Researched the issue and it's called "death wobble" had i known this existed i would never have bought this car, i feel so unsafe in this car. I will never buy another jeep and will tell everyone i know to not buy one. These cars should be recalled and fixed for free, and this company should be sued for making cars that are this unsafe. *Js

Every time that i fill my vehicle up with fuel it overflows and spills all over the side of the vehicle and onto the ground. At first, i just thought it was the pumps at the gas station i normally go to, but recently i've started to go to a new gas station and the same thing is happening. What finally brought it to my attention was that i was filling up, and someone with the same year (2007) jeep was getting gas right next to me and the same thing happened to him. I know 2 other people with jeep wranglers and theirs are doing the same thing. I'd be willing to bet most have this problem.

Windshield wipers and lights failed to work during icy rain/snowy conditions. Road visibility was significantly impaired and i couldn't see my instrument panel. I had no option but to continue home at very slow speeds to avoid an accident. After approximately 20 minutes of driving without wipers, the wipers suddenly turned on by themselves, moving very fast. I could not adjust the wiper speed at all. When i arrived home and turned the jeep off and removed the keys, wipers still would not turn off. I had to disconnect the battery to stop the wipers. Dealer claims it was a faulty wiper motor. I advised them i think it's a faulty tipm based on what i researched/read online. They assured me the tipm was working fine. When they ordered and installed the new wiper motor, it didn't fix the problem. They then admitted they were wrong with the diagnostic and the tipm was faulty. They advised me that i need a new tipm and that all tipms are on nationwide back order. Seems tipm failure is a recurring theme amongst certain jeep wrangler models. If your lights and wipers can go out while operating the vehicle, this is a huge safety hazard. I called chrysler to complain and have yet to hear back from them. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that while driving 50 mph, the front end of the vehicle began to shake violently. When the failure would occur, the contact would slightly lose control of the vehicle. The contact applied the brakes and the vehicle decelerated as normal. The contact took the vehicle to a local mechanic where the mechanic advised that the stabilizer bar and steering dampener were faulty and needed to be replaced. After replacing the steering dampener and stabilizer bar, the vehicle continued to shake when driving at higher speeds. The contact took the vehicle to a dealer and the dealer advised that the tires needed to be replaced. The contact stated there was nothing wrong with the tires. The failure mileage was 55,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that fuel spilled out from the filler neck while refueling. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for a diagnostic test. The technician stated that the check valve in fuel tank failed and would have to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 35,500. the consumer stated the failure happened four to five times over several times, while using the auto shut off at the pump or hand filling the tank. Gas spilled out of the filler area, down the side of the vehicle onto the consumer's shoes. It was determined the check valve in the fuel tank failed. Updated 04/18/12

My wrangler was manufactured 2/07- i purchased it used in 2/12. Every time i fill the tank, gas spills out immediately after the pump stops. Daimler chrysler will not acknowledge this is an issue despite hundreds of complaints from 2007-08 wrangler owners. This is obviously a safety issue and there should be a recall. *Tr

My issue is the large amount of oil used, 1 qt used per 2500 miles. This is what the dealership and jeep told me. normal oil consumption: below are industry standards for normal engine oil consumption: mileage below 50,000: normal oil consumption is one quart for each 1,000 miles driven. Mileage above 50,000: normal oil consumption is one quart for each 750 miles driven. so, as long as a jeep with 50000 or more miles on it does not use more than a quart of oil every 750 miles they do not care, and they will not fix it. i was also told that why new jeeps take 6 qt's since they use so much oil. i even have a warranty and they still will not fix it. There are no oil leaks and i have had 2 oil consumption test ran on the vehicle by the dealership. The dealership and chrysler will not help fix the problem. I was told by the dealership that i am lucky it does not use a quart of oil every 1000 miles, since it may get low enough to burn the engine up in under 2500 miles. *Kb

For your urgent review and action: i was driving down the road at 45 mph and the front wheels and steering wheel of my jeep started to shake violently! I had no control over the steering of the jeep. I looked up on the internet this problem and discovered much information including videos that describe this violent shake as the "death wabble". This violent shake continues to happen when i get up to speeds between 45mp and 60mph. So far i have replaced the steering stabalizer shock and now my jeep is back in the shop at a local tire and front-end service center getting new tires, wheel balancing and a front-end alignment. because of the severity of this issue, the service center said they will not "test drive" the jeep after this work is complete because they are not willing to put their employees lives at risk. This is a major problem for me if i can't even have a service provider test drive my vehicle after they do their work because they fear something terrible could happen to their lives. It makes me very scared to drive this jeep. i am requesting that chrysler-jeep immediately review the fixes of my jeep (including a test drive) when i get the jeep back and that they cover my expenses thus far to fix the "death wabble" plus any additional work that they may need to do to make my jeep safe to drive by eliminating this violent shaking problem. I find it hard to believe that this vehicle, with this violent shaking issue that creates loss of control of the vehicle, meets automative safety regulations. This is a "known" difficiency with various jeep products including my 2007 jeep wrangler x. in addition, i am requesting any "recall" information that may be available to fix this problem that i may have missed. i am available to provide additional information upon request to assist with my request for resolution. *Tt

At between 35-40 mph, when a bump is hit with one wheel before the other a shaking begins in the front suspension. At times this shaking is so violent and sustained that the vehicle has be brought to a complete stop. There is some kind of apparent harmonic oscillation that is being established for it to be as violent and sustained as it is. I initially reported this to the jeep dealership in 2008, after the steering stabilizer bracket broke off the front axle of the jeep. I was told that my problems were because the lift kit that was installed on the vehicle was not a mopar approved kit. Jeeps resolution was for me to purchase a new front axle at my cost and replace the lift kit that was on the vehicle. The lift was professionally installed and is one of the top kits on the market. Since this time, i have replaced the steering stabilizer about every 10k-12k miles. Each time the i do, this reduces the problem for a short period of time. Each time i have discussed the issue with a jeep service center, i've been told that this is a lift issue and not jeep's problem. From the many complaints that i continue to read on jeep forums in which people are experiencing this issue, i strongly believe that this is an issue with the design of the front suspension/steering system on the jk. I have read reports from people experiencing this with the stock suspension, as well as a variety of lift systems and tire/rim configurations. If there is some way to fix this that jeep is aware of, they should be disclosing it to the owners of the vehicles, if not they should make efforts to investigate and try to resolve this issue. *Tr

Fuel overflows from tank when filling vehicle. *Kb

I hit a small bump on my morning commute on interstate 95 while riding next to a tractor trailer. My front end started shaking violently...i thought i was going to slam into the side of that tractor trailer. The so called "death wobble" is a horrifying experience, and frankly something threatening my life really pisses me off. My jeep is stock..never lifted and no modifications. I do not understand how the national highway traffic safety administration has let this one slip through the cracks. I am going to see a lawyer. I have spent so much money trying to get this resolved..and i am still not safe it is still happening..happened yesterday. Now i could trade it in or sell it, but that is some real bad karma coming back. I am looking for these manufacture issues to be resolved and to know that when i drive my jeep to and from work everyday that everytime i hit a small bump or cross over a joint in a bridge, i am not at risk of killing myself or someone else due to driving a jeep wrangler. I would never recommend jeep to anyone at this point. In fact people ask me all the time how i like it and i tell them it is a piece of crap and i wouldn't buy one. feel free to contact me regarding these issues. I am sure you have heard them before as they seem to be pretty common (the violent shaking in the front end even has it's own name...the "death wobble"). Why don't you go out and buy a wrangler and put your own family members in it and drive down the highway at 70? Would you own a jeep wrangler or buy one for your daughter? *Tr

Bought this jeep used in feb 2011. It spills fuel everywhere during fill up at gas pump when nozzle cuts off. It happens every time and at multiple stations. I have to usually only put 15-18 gallons in to prevent it from spilling over. There have been numerous times it has spit and spilled on myself or my wife during fueling. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that the vehicle would violently shake while driving approximately 55 mph.

When filling the gas tank, the tank will overfill every time that the fuel hose handle is allowed to cut off automatically. Gas will then splash down the side of the jeep and on to the ground. *Tr

This vehicle has had a problem with the gas tank overflowing since it was almost new. Jeep has refused to recognize that this is a design flaw and refuses to take responsibility for the environmental and safety hazard that this flaw causes each and every time these jeeps are fueled up. At the point of filling up, the gas tank overflows sending large amounts of gas on the side of the jeep and onto the ground. This is a terrible fire and environmental hazard that could lead to public injury and even death if it caused a fire. i would be happy to provide a video of this problem occurring if needed to get this addressed. Absent action being taken here, i am not sure where to turn other than mainstream media to get action to be taken. *Tr

When filling up, gas overflows out of filler neck. Does not matter about fuel flow being fast or slow. *Tr

During fueling, after the auto-shutoff of the fuel pump stops the fuel dispensing, fuel overflows (approx. 1/2-1 gallon) from the fuel tank past the still in-place pump handle causing fuel to spill on the side of the vehicle, the ground, and on anyone standing directly beside the fuel inlet. *Tr

As driving on highway engine started to make clicking noise, called local jeep dealership and brought into shop no engine lights or oil lights on, service person told me that oil was 5 quarts low in a 6 quart engine and the engine bearings were stripped need new engine and life time powertrain warranty will not cover engine. When i ask service person why this happen he could not and would not give straight answer simple said " aftermarket oil filter, and i found no leaks" then asked if it was the oil filter he said " no i'm not telling you it was the oil filter!" then i said "if it is not the oil filter nor you found no leaks where did the other 5 quarts of oil disappear to. It must be a defected engine. I just change the oil 2000 miles ago!" in all service department will not tell me why the engine failed or how it happen neither will chrysler. *Kb

Just purchased this jeep used, excellent condition few days ago jan. 2012. Major fuel spitting back upon filling the tank. The pump shuts off as expected and then there is a huge gush of gas that comes out after all over me, the side of jeep, and all over the ground. This is a huge safety issue and a fire concern! The second attempt at fueling i tried slowing the speed of gas and not filling all the way --- same thing happened. Jeep dealer acts they've never heard of this. A lie. I've emailed chrysler and they also are acting like they don't know anything about it even though i have a copy of a letter they have sent to previous owners about it stating they would repair this fuel spitback issue. Apparently, my previous owner did nothing! I've now read all of the reports and claims. Too bad we didn't know this before. I am afraid to put my family in this jeep and we haven't even had it for a week. You don't think it's a recall? I need this fixed! What will it take for you to issue a recall? A fire, explosion? Or do you need to wait for a death first? Would you like a video of this fuel spitting back out of the side of my new jeep? I would be glad to film it for you as proof! It's not just a little fuel --- it's a gush! Wake up, okay? I am a new owner and nobody and no internet sites or social media b.s. Is influencing me. I need help and so does everyone else with this extremely dangerous issue. *Tr

The six speed manual transmission continually jumps out of first gear while pulling away from a stop. This is dangerous because it could cause an accident to occur if the transmission was to jump out of gear during a take off and crossing lanes of traffic. I also am aware that this is a common problem, not only has chrysler shipped a non-functional vehicle but have knowingly ignored a fix after 5 years. *Kb

I just bought jeep used. First time i filled up the pump cut off and then there was a surge of gas that spewed out.

Spillage was over a liter and was all over clothing and attendant had to spread absorbent. *Tr

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that the front end of the vehicle would shake violently when driving at any speed. The vehicle was taken to the dealer numerous times for the failure. The dealer replaced the steering stabilizer several times but the failure was not corrected. The failure mileage was 20,000 and the current mileage was 363,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. While driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle began to shake vigorously. The failure recurred constantly when driving between speeds of 50-70 mph. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing and the technicians replaced the ball joints, stabilizer bar and the tires. The failure continued after the repairs were performed. The vehicle was not further repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 31,000.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. While driving approximately 60 mph, the vehicle began to shake uncontrollably. The failure only occurred when driving at highway speeds above 55 mph. The vehicle was taken to an auto shop for diagnostic testing where the mechanic rotated the tires and replaced the stabilizer but the failure continued after the repair. The vehicle was not further repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 100,000.

Vehicle was just purchased certified pre-owned. Vehicle came with a full tank of gasoline. While re-filling at a gas station for the first time, the tank filled normally. As soon as the fuel reached the nozzle end i heard the nozzle click off. Then approximately half a gallon of fuel sprayed out the end of the fill tube. The fuel ran all over the side of the jeep and also sprayed onto my pant leg and shoe. I have since looked this issue up online in jeep owner's forums and found this to be a huge problem among so many of these models. Not only is this a tremendous safety issue, but also an environmental issue as well. It is obvious that the tank is not vented properly. This issue needs immediate attention before a tragic event occurs. Earlier in this form i was asked if a fire occurred i answered no. Thank god this time there was not. This defect not unlike throwing lit matches at a gas pump.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated while driving 70 mph over a bump in the road the vehicle would shake uncontrollably. The vehicle was taken numerous times to several mechanics who stated they could not repair the failure. The tires were replaced and rotated. The shocks and stabilizer were also replaced but the shaking continued to occur. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who stated there was no repair for this problem. The manufacturer was notified and a claim was filed and she was advised a representative would give her a call. The failure mileage was 120,000. Updated 12/12/11*lj

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that upon shifting into drive, the vehicle surged forward until it crashed into another vehicle. The contact suffered minor injuries.

While driving on a secondary road at 50 mph, i crossed a bump in the road where a culvert had been replaced. The blacktop was replaced on the road and no visible obstructions were noticed. The jeep started shaking violently. I thought i had blown a tire or a ball joint had failed. I came to a stop at the side of the road with traffic behind me, fearing i'd get rear-ended making a stop so suddenly. I got out of the jeep to check the tires, etc and nothing looked out of place - no flat tires, no sign of joints failing. I got back in the jeep and slowly started driving again. This happened within a 4 week span at least 4 times at the same location. But when i would drive with others in their vehicles, there would be no problems. I ended up taking my jeep to the local garage and they replaced ball joints, u joints and also aligned the front end. I had no problem until november 1, when along another secondary road, another culvert had been replaced; again the jeep started shaking violently. Again on a main highway, a week later, a bump you could not see but feel while driving, violent shaking occurred. I called my garage today and told the attendant what has been happening and they explained to me that this occurs in some chrysler and also ford vehicles. There probably is nothing else wrong, but it's something that just needs to be dealt with in owning one of these vehicles. "Dealt with"???? I shouldn't have to deal with this - chrysler should deal with this - helloooo, "recall"... *Tr

Intermittent problem occurring almost exclusively at highway speeds. While driving at highway speeds suddenly, without warning, the vehicle shuts off. All warning lights on the dash board appear, engine completely shuts off which leads to power steering failure and loss of safe control of the vehicle. While the engine shut off is intermittent and does not last for more than a few seconds before it turns back on without use of the key or any other means of manually restarting the vehicle, it is highly unsafe and can lead to severe injury or death. We have noted this issue occurring approximately 1-2 times per month. We finally took the vehicle to the dealership to service and locate the issue with the vehicle on october 20, 2011. The dealership stated they could not find any issues with the vehicle, with the exception of unusually high oil consumption. The dealership advised we do an oil consumption test which will be completed in 3000 miles or 3 months. *Tr

I purchased this vehicle used with 7907 miles on it. Within four months i experienced the front end shake violently when i hit a bump. I thought it was just a one time occurrence caused by being in a curve when it happened. But this has happened six or seven times in the past year with two occurrences in the same day, yesterday 11-1-11. I have found a location on interstate highway i-294 where at 55mph it will occur when ever i am in the right lane. I have not taken the car to a dealer yet because it only has 27000 miles on it and everything looks tight in the front end. The vehicle is completely stock and has never been driver off road. After researching the internet for similar complaints i found many people experiencing the same trouble. It is described as "death wobble". I believe this issue should be looked at by the ntsb. With so many jeep wrangler owners having the same trouble, there may be design fault. *Tr

This is the first of three similar incidents concerning two different jeeps and clockspring failure. In this incident they advised that it was caused from a big jarring. In the second incident they said dust. The third one, in a separate 2008 wranger i replaced myself. They charge approximately $150 for less then a minute of diagnostic and approximately $250 for a part that costs less then $180. I believe this is a fleecing of the public and needs the attention of your agency. There is a way to disable the the airbag sound and because of these costs it could/will lead to a death from failure.

This is my third clockspring in just over two years. I run a jeep tour company with two jeeps, two being the 4 door unlimited. Just after replacing the second one in just under two years on the 07 jeep this one went out. I was traveling approximately 5 mph or less when the airbag was illuminated. Based on prior experience with the 07 i had it checked out and discovered this clockspring had become defective as the prior two. I replaced this clockspring myself to save on costs as the two prior replacements cost over $400 each time. I have saved two of these clocksprings if needed for investigation.

Fuel splash back when pump set on auto shut off, lowest setting. Will loose 2 - 6 oz. Fuel on to side of vehicle and often enough to splash on drive. Dealer doesn't seem to know anything about ongoing problem.

Severe wobble in front end where control of vehicle is hard to maintain. It began intermittently and briefly and now is repetitive and sustained. My wrangler is now being evaluated for the fourth time and needs a steering dampener replaced (which was the recall) along with replacing upper and lower ball joints. Chrysler reportedly had 4,000 of these vehicles recalled under service bulletin number: csn-j34 with this same issue. My vehicle is not included in the recall. This vehicle and others like it is going to kill someone. The front end of the vehicle violently shakes/wobbles at normal highway speeds. I was told by the dealer that this was a "known engineering flaw".

While driving down a 7% grade hill, the brake pedal went to the floor, warning lights on the dash lit up and the engine raced. Followed by ineffective brake modulation, more lights, increased speed, and panic of wife (driver), children in car seats 2), and dogs (3). Wife was able to use emergency brake to slow far enough to shift automatic transmission to 2nd, followed by 1st, pull off to the side of the road and jam it into park. She drove to the bottom of the hill and into a parking area in 4wd low. The vehicle was towed to the dealer where they found nothing concrete to blame. They speculated that a corroded battery cable caused a voltage spike(s) which the computer interpreted as the vehicle being in a skid and the computer took away all driver control of braking. Luckily, they all survived.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact was traveling between 50-60 mph over an uneven road surface when the vehicle began to drive as if the suspension was loose.

The vehicle responded well for several weeks before the failure recurred. There were no further repairs. The failure mileage was 60,000 and the current mileage was 63,000.

My vehicle spills fuel out of the filler area every time i fill up. The fuel gets on me, the vehicle, and the ground. I have contacted chrysler about the matter, and they advise me because i am outside the time frame for their tsb, any repairs would have to be paid by me. After thoroughly researching the matter, it seems this is a wide spread concern. Chrysler has addressed the issue for some, but not others because "we're outside the window". Please see your code #pe10032. also, my vehicle consumes or burns oil at the rate of one quart per 1000 miles. Again, research shows this is another wide spread matter attributed to faulty motor construction of some 2007/2008 engines. Owners who have had the repair done under warranty found that on three pistons, ring gaps where in a line, the other three where close, all six oil expander rings and piston rods where installed upside down. Chrysler will address the matter only if you are still under warranty. I do not understand why the cost should be bared by the consumer when both matters are so common and wide spread as to indicate design flaws in the product. Why should i pay for their inability to build a component correctly?

While pumping fuel to the vehicle. The gas nozzle clicks and shuts off fuel when gas tank is full. The vehicle will burst fuel back out. Spilling all over side of vehicle and on to the floor. When i pump gas i have to make sure i don't fill gas tank to full or the problem will continue. It happens all the time and in different gasoline stations.

Every time i fill up my gas tank the fuel will overflow as much as a quart out of the fuel inlet down my rear fender, bumper, and to the ground after releasing the gas spout handle stopping the flow of fuel.

When refueling the vehicle, the automatic shutoff does not engage from the vehicle itself. Fuel (about a quart) continues to flow and out and all over the side of the vehicle. It also sprays out and on the personnel fueling the vehicle. There is a tsb 14-001-11 from jeep about the issue, and i request this be repaired under warranty. It is unsafe for the operator to have fuel sprayed on them, and have fuel spillage on the ground.

Tl* the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact noticed that when traveling at speeds above 50 mph, the wheels would rattle and he would lose control of the vehicle.

My build date on my jeep sahara was 10/2006. It started shooting gas back out the fill pipe app. A year after i purchased it and it is still doing it almost every time i fill it up regardless of the gas station or the speed the pump is pumping (slow medium or fast).it has shot gas out as far as a foot from the jeep, spraying on me a couple different times. I have been informed that some jeeps after a build date from march 2007 thru 2008 are being repaired by the dealer. I would like to know why the earlier build dates are not since it is the same problem.

Gas tank overfill. When fueling, after the gas station pump clicks off, large volumes of gasoline are ejected from the gas tank onto the side of the vehicle, onto the pump handle itself, and onto the person doing the fueling (me). Again, this happens *after* the gas pump clicks itself off.

This is a recurring problem that i face when i fill the vehicle up at any gas station. While filling the vehicle with gas, the auto stop clicks, and immediately the tank starts spilling gas. The gas spills out and runs down the side of the vehicle and onto the ground creating a puddle. This problem isn't attributable to trying to "top off" the tank because the by the first time the auto stop clicks, the vehicle is already pouring out gasoline. I have spoken to many other owners regarding this problem and they have said the same thing. I have investigated through nhtsa, and they have an ongoing investigation into this matter (action number : pe10032).

When fueling at automatic cut off gas pumps fuel will splash back out of filler neck on persons , fender and ground before tank is full and pump cuts off

Every time i fill up the gas tank no matter where i am spillage occurs after the automatic shut off. Jeep was around 2 years old when this started happening.

Gas surges out of gas tank shortly after the automatic shut-off on gas pump activates. Several cups of gasoline pour down the side of the car and puddles on the ground. This happens every time i fill my car at every gas station. I now only fill my car to approximately 3/4 full. It started happening fall of 2010 with approximately 37,000 miles on the car. This has happened about 10-12 times.

Approximately 1/4 to 1/2 gallon of fuel back flows forcefully out of filler neck immediately following the release of the handle when the tank is full. This happens both when the handle is locked down in fueling position and automatically clicks off and when i am holding the handle to fill the tank. At no time am i attempting to overfill the tank beyond the safety shut off.

When refueling, a significant amount of gasoline spilled out after the pump automatically shut off. Within a second or 2 of the pump shutting off gas then flowed out of the tank filler tube. It splashed all over my pants and shoes along with the car itself.

When filling with gas spews out. On january 10th flew out so bad, my winter coat, pants, gloves and shoes were ruined. Been ongoing problem. Has repair orders from dealership. In addition, the hard top has leaked since day one and never been repaired. I am not driving vehicle since the awful spillage on january 10th. I cannot afford to keep ruining clothes. In addition, concerned it can cause further problem (ie, perhaps fire). Always in attendance while filling. Spoken with several other jeep owners experiencing same problem. What's it going to take for chrysler to correct this default, a death, or severe injury. If not winter time i feel i would have been burned on my skin by the gasoline.

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that when driving 70 mph or more over a bump in the road, the front end shook violently and the contact lost control momentarily.

The contact called the manufacturer who stated that they would send a specialist to inspect the vehicle. The failure mileage was 74,000.

When refueling the vehicle gas splashes out of the tank onto myself, side of vehicle, and ground. Incident occurs when the tank is nearly full during the refueling process.

Feeling in front end suspension of a loose component. You can feel it in the steering wheel when the vehicle engine compartment is hot. Dealership claims no problem found. Still having problem today and everyday. Spoke to other jeep owners they think it may be in the steering shaft which runs close to the exhaust manifold .

When refueling vehicle at any fuel station, fuel nozzle does not shutoff and over spills at fuel opening. It occurs regardless of temperature, fuel station, or positioning of fuel nozzle in port.

On march 3, 2009, my airbag light came on. When i slowed to make a turn, it would ding at me and go off and then on. When i'm drove normally, and usually straight, the light just stayed on with no ding. Through research, i've come to find that my clockspring was faulty and may not deploy my airbag if i were to get into an accident. I had this fixed through chrysler. They said it was not covered under any warranty. Now, on jan. 15, 2011 with 103,769 miles, the airbag light came back on and did the same thing as previously. I went back to the same dealer to have them check it out, only for them to tell me, again, it is not covered under any warranty and that i have to pay to have it replaced again. Considering this is a safety issue, i was surprised to find i had to pay both times. If i didn't get this fixed, and i got into an accident, my airbag may not deploy. Completely unacceptable.

I have a 2007 jeep jk that has a systemic problem of having fuel spill out on the side of the jeep when refueling. Almost instantaneously, the fuel nozzle handle shuts off and roughly ½ gallon of fuel gushes out on the jeep, bumper and ground. The only way to avoid this problem is to fill half way or attempt to listen for fuel coming close to the top of the tank.

2007 jeep wrangler - every time i fill the gas tank, since roughly 10,000 miles (now at 63,000) the auto shut off feature of gas pumps will not shut off in time. This causes roughly 1/4 gallon of fuel to spill down the side of the vehicle. This has been a recurring situation for a couple years. I cannot rely on the auto-shut off of the pump with this vehicle. This is a known issue for many jeep wrangler owners, since the new model from 2007. Multiple attempts to fix under warranty were denied by dealerships. I am finally scheduled to replace the gas tank (a known fix for the issue); but will be paying for it out of pocket, as the warranty has since expired. *Tr

Every time the vehicle is filled with gasoline, gasoline exits the tank through the filler tube and splashes on the ground leaving a potential for fire. This happens at pumps at different stations in different states, different amounts of fuel within before fueling, and regardless of placement of the filling handle of the pump. The vehicle worked as it should for the first 25k miles and will not fill correctly since that time without leaving fuel on the ground. This is my second 2007 jeep wrangler and both have had this problem at approximately the same mileage. Each vehicle was filled with the correct gasoline as prescribed by the manual and all maintenance was done at a 5 star jeep dealer on both. There appears to be a defect in the design of the gas system.

When filling the fuel tank with fuel, the tank does not properly vent causing fuel to spurt out the filler neck as it approaches full. The gas spurts on the vehicle's 1/4 panel, on the person filling the vehicle and on the ground. This has happened now during the last several fill ups. You must also fill slowly or the gas nozzle shuts off as if the tank is full. I have an extensive automotive background and it is obvious that the tank is not properly venting. This occurs in boats when permanent mounted fuel tank vent lines become blocked or collapse over time.

When refueling, as you near full, the pump will shut off, and you will get a big splash back of gasoline( about 2-5 cups). It will splash back all over the side of the vehicle and rubber fender and rear plastic bumper. Even if you try to guess when its nearing full, it still seems to be some back splash when you shut it off near full

Fuel spill every time it is filled. As the pump clicks off it starts venting fuel on the person filling & on the ground.

While filling fuel tank, at almost full or full tank, pump will shut off or auto stop, and then fuel will start to shoot back out of gas filler as almost under pressure. Sometimes it's a few drops, but more often it is a lot. If your nearby you will get covered in gas, happens 4 out of 5 times while filling up now. I feel this could be a safety issue as my jeep and anyone near it during fill up can end up covered in gas

While pulling out in 1st gear with manual transmission the jeep jumps out of of 1st gear.

Driving on the interstate at approximately 65 mph, and the front end began shaking violently. I started pulling over and when i got down to 35 mph, the shaking stopped. I was able to drive for a couple of weeks without incidence, and then it happened again with increasing frequency. This was a stock jeep bought new without any after-market alterations with only 52k miles. I took it into midas, and they said i needed a new steering stabilizer. They replaced it, and it did not solve the problem. I took it to another mechanic, and they replaced trackbar, but it didn't solve the problem. I took it back to midas, and they put another new stabilizer, still had the problem with ever-increasing frequency. I put new tires on the car, and the problem went away for about 20k miles. At 73k, the problem started again. This time i took it the jeep dealer. They knew what the "death wobble" was, and they said they would check everything. They reported back that there was nothing wrong with the components, and suggested i get the tires balanced again. I got the tires balanced and took it back a week later to the dealer as the problem was happening with more frequency, and now was occurring at speeds between 45-55 mph. I suggested a particular patch of highway for a test drive. They called me back and said, "there is something seriously wrong." they then worked with chrysler to identify and "solve" the problem. They replaced the tire rods and joints. Three days later i experienced the problem again, and then again, and again. I have spent approximately $1400 to "fix" this problem, and it continues to persist. Do an online search of "death wobble" and you'll find entry after entry and even videos. I'm really worried that one of these times when i and forced to quickly slow down and head to the shoulder, i'm going to end up rear ended by a tractor trailer.

While i was filling up with gas the nozzle kicked off and fuel overflowed all over the side of my jeep and the ground. I thought it was the stations pump for the issue. A week later i was at another gas station filling up with gas and it did it again only this time gas spilled all over my jeep, pants and shoes. Every since the first episode it had happened every time i fill up. I have tried to hold the nozzle and pump it slowly, but it still happens. It is beyond frustrating to have to wash the side of my jeep off every time i fill up with gas. This could be a very big issue. I had the gas spill all over my jeans and shoes making them both flammable. Also, it could have splashed into my eyes. I think jeep needs to do something about this issue before someone gets hurt.

After out running errands and using the defrost,i noticed a small crack at the bottom of the passengers side of the wind shield. When i noticed the crack it was approx. 3 " long, and ran from bottom to top, since then it has begun to curve towards the drivers side by about 1". I have taken the vehicle to two dealers and both have dismissed it has a rock chip. One service manager told me that even the smallest rock chip is enough to crack the windshield. He traced the crack with a writing pen and determined it was not a stress issue but a "rock hit". The other service manager rubbed her finger over the crack and determined it to be a "rock hit", both service managers did state that the "rock hit" could have been already present and the current temperature change could have caused the crack. One service manager did say that if the "rock hit" was not present he could fix it under the current warranty. I came home a did a google search and found several complaints about the 2007 jeep and it's windshield. *Tr
