2008 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

MANUAL TRANSMISSION POPS OUT OF GEAR, THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THE SYNCHRONIZER WILL NEED TO BE REPLACED. I PAID TO HAVE IT REPLACED THE FIRST TIME BECAUSE THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM. THE SECOND TIME CHRYSLER PAID TO REPLACE IT: THAT WAS 2 1/2 YEARS AGO (THAT IS HOW LONG IT LASTED FOR) I RECENTLY CONTACTED THE DEALERSHIP WHO REPLACED IT IN 11/2016 AND THEY SAID I DON'T HAVE A WARRANTY AND THEY ONLY GUARANTEE THEIR WORK FOR 2 YEARS. I FOUND A RECALL SERVICE BULLETIN ON LINE FOR THE SYNCHRONIZER THAT WAS SENT TO ALL DEALERSHIPS APRIL 20, 2010

TRANSMISSION FLUID OVERHEATED CAUSING A TRANSMISSION FAILURE. NO WARNING LIGHT CAME ON.

GAS TANK COVER IS RUSTED SO BAD THE TANK COULD FALL OUT. VERY UNSAFE FOR THE ROAD.

STRONG FUEL ODOR, THIS JEEP ONLY HAS 8.000 MILES ON IT I BOUGHT IT USED, STRONG FUEL ODOR IN AND AROUND JEEP. HAVE IT IT IN THE SHOP 3 TIMES NO ONE CAN FIND THE PROBLEM, I AM AFRAID OF A EXPLOSION THAT'S HOW BAD THE SMELL IS THE FUEL SMELL IS OVERPOWERING, LIKE I SAID MECHANICS AT A JEEP DEALER CAN'T FIND OUT WHAT IT IS AND WITH HAVING ONLY A LITTLE OVER 8,000 MILES IT SHOULD NOT BE DOING THIS. THE ODOR OF GAS CAN BE STRONG WHILE DRIVING WITH THE AC UNIT GOING THROUGH THE VENTS AND WHEN IT IS STATIONARY IT IS EVEN STRONGER, SMELL STARTED MAY THE 15TH 2019

JEEP SPITS FUEL BACK OUT WHEN YOU FILL UP THE TANK. NOT JUST A SMALL AMOUNT EITHER, A GOOD AMOUNT ALL OVER THE JEEP AND THE FLOOR.

JEEP HAS MAJOR ELECTRICAL ISSUES. JEEPS TIPM MODULE HAS CAUSED THE JEEP TO DIE WHILE DRIVING, EXPERIENCE LACKING POWER, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO GO OFF AND SEEMS TO BRAKE ITSELF. I REPLACED ITNLESS THAN A YEAR AGO AND NOW THE DEALERSHIP IS SAYING IT IS GOING OUT AGAIN. ALSO HAVING PROBLEMS WITH PCM AND PART IS ON NATIONAL BACKORDER.

SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT THE CAR BURST INTO FLAMES AND BURNT TO THE GROUND.THE FIRE DEPARTMENT SAID IT WAS CAUSED BY TRANSMISSION FLUID BOILING OUT OF A VENT AND HITTING THE HOT EXHAUST PIPE

TRANSMISSION VIOLENTLY SHIFTS OUT OF 1ST GEAR WHILE STARTING FROM A DEAD STOP (STOP LIGHT, INTERSECTION, ETC) THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND SOMEONE IS LIKELY TO GET HURT OR KILLED WHEN THIS CAUSES THE VEHICLE TO STALL. THIS IS A WELL DOCUMENTED ISSUE AND HAS BEEN AFFECTING JEEP OWNERS FOR YEARS. WHY HASN"T JEEP DONE A RECALL ON THIS VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE??? THIS HAPPENS AT LEAST TWICE A DAY IF NOT MORE. SOME OWNERS HAVE IT HAPPEN EVERY TIME.

BALL JOINT ON THE TIE ROD FELL OFF OF THE PITMAN ARM OF THE STEERING BOX BACKING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT AT A SHOPPING CENTER, LEAVING NO STEERING CONTROL. LOW SPEED AT TIME OF INCIDENT (UNDER 5KM/H) LUCKILY THERE WAS NO ACCIDENT. VEHICLE WAS BACKING OUT OF SPOT TO THE RIGHT AND A CLUNK WAS HEARD AND FELT IN THE STEERING WHEEL WHEN STRAIGHTENING THE WHEELS. JEEP WRANGLER 4DOOR 4X4 SAHARA UNLIMITED

EVERY TIME I REFILL MY GAS TANK IT OVERFLOWS ALL OVER THE GROUND. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE I OWNED THE CAR IN 2010 TO MOST RECENTLY YESTERDAY ON 3/12/19. BASED ON PRODUCTION THERE ARE MORE THE 2.1 MILLION JEEP WRANGLERS ON THE ROAD ACCORDING TO PRODUCTION NUMBERS. IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A DECENT ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE IF IT OCCURS ON MOST IF NOT ALL JKS. ANY JK OWNER I HAVE TALKED TO HAS THIS SAME ISSUE. CHRYSLER SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS FAILED ASPECT OF THE VEHICLE
