2007 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

WAS INVOLVED IN COLLISION AT 35-45 MPH WHERE DRIVER AIR BAG DID NOT DEPLOY RESULTING IN SERIOUS INJURY TO DRIVER. THIS VEHICLE WAS I'M FORWARD MOTION ON A RURAL STREET. WE HAVE NOT RECEIVED ANY NOTICES OF AIRBAG DRIVER SIDE RECALLS

MY JEEP WITH 86K MILES ENGINE BLEW. ONE WEEK EARLIER WHEN DRIVING OVER 40 MILES PER HOUR IT SEEMED TO WOBBLE A BIT FROM LEFT TO RIGHT, I THOUGHT MAYBE IT WAS BECAUSE I HAD 4 WHEEL DRIVE ON. I HAVE ONLY OWNED IT FOR A MONTH AND IT IS A 2ND VEHICLE AND I WAS NOT SURE IF THAT WAS NORMAL OR NOT. THEN AFTER NOT DRIVING THE VEHICLE FOR 4 DAYS I MOVED IT OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY AND WAS LESS THEN A BLOCK FROM MY HOME WHEN THE OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND HALF A BLOCK LATER THE ENGINE CUT OUT. THE CAR WOULDNT START AGAIN AND I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED IT. THEY TOLD ME THE INTERNAL FUEL PUMP SEEMED TO MALFUNCTION AND THE ENGINE WAS BLOWN! WHEN I RETURNED HOME I NOTICED A POOL OF OIL IN MY DRIVEWAY. THIS CAR SAT FOR DAYS AND WAS BARELY DRIVEN BY ME SINCE MY PURCHASE. HOW DOES AN ENGINE AT 86K MILES JUST BLOW? HOW DOES OIL JUST DUMP OUT OF A VEHICLE? WHY? WELL DOING INTERNET RESEARCH IT APPEARS THAT THIS 2007 ENGINE YEAR THERE WAS A MISTAKE IN THE ENGINES WHERE PISTONS WERE PUT IN UPSIDE DOWN? THERE WAS NO RECALL FOR THIS AND MANY 2007 JEEPS HAVE HAD THIS HAPPEN. I AM LUCKY IT HAPPENED ON A LOCAL ROAD, IF I WAS DRIVING 65 IN MIDDLE LANE OF A HIGHWAY AND MY ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF I WOULD BE DEAD. I COULDNT STEER IT. IT JUST STOPPED..... I HAVE TRIED CALLING CHRYSLER AND HAVE BEEN TRANSFERED MANY TIMES TO OTHER PEOPLE, I AM AT A LOSS OF WHAT TO DO. AGAIN, I HAVE HAD THIS VEHICLE 1.5 MONTHS...

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

FUEL DOES NOT SHUT OFF WHILE FILLING TANK, LEADING TO OVERFLOW ONTO VEHICLE, GROUND, KEYS, PERSON.

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

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.

FOR THE PAST 5 MONTHS I'VE HAD MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I READ THE CODE AND IS SAYS "LARGE E VAP LEAK " I'VE REPLACED THE PCV VALVE AND THE E VAP CHARCOAL CANISTER AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON. I'VE BROUGHT IT TO A MECHANIC AND THEY DID A SMOKE TEST AND EVERYTHING TESTED OUT GOOD. SHOWING THAT THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS AND TO START WITH THE GAS CAP. I'VE SPENT OVER 100.DOLLARS ON GAS CAPS AND I STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE TO FOR EMISSIONS BY THE END OF DECEMBER. I'VE HAD EVERY RECALL KNOWN TO MAN ON THIS JEEP. I'VE DONE RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT IT COULD BE THE GAS FILLER NECK ITSELF. HOW TO I GO ABOUT GETTING A NEW ONE AND WILL IT COST ME ANYTHING? I ALSO HAVE PROBLEMS WHEN I TRY AND FILL THE TANK. THE GAS COMES FLYING BACK OUT IF I TRY AND FILL IT. ITS GETTING OUT OF HAND AND THE DEALERSHIP WON'T GIVE ME AN ANSWER. I WAS GOING TO GO TO.ANOTHER DEALERSHIP BUT I WANT TO KNOW IF THIS WILL COST ME? I HAVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31 TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED OR MY PLATES WILL BE SUSPENDED AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO GET MY PLATE STICKER. WHAT SHOULD I DO?? THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHILE STATIONARY AND WHILE DRIVING. THIS STARTED IN THE MIDDLE OF MAY.
