2008 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

TAKATA RECALL: WHILE ON THE HIGHWAY TRAVELING AT 50MPH OR HIGHER, IF THE JEEP HITS A SMALL BUMP, THE VEHICLE WILL BEGIN TO VIOLENTLY SHAKE, ONLY STOPPING THE VEHICLE MAKES IT COME TO A STOP. THIS EXTREME WOBBLE MAKES CONTROLLING THE VEHICLE DIFFICULT, WHICH COULD HAVE RESULTED IN SEVERE HIGHWAY ACCIDENTS. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IN ANY TYPE OF INCLEMENT WEATHER.THIS HAS REQUIRED ME TO PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY SEVERAL TIMES, WHICH IN ITSELF IS ALSO A DANGEROUS SITUATION TO BE IN. I HAVE TAKEN MY VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP OF PURCHASE 2 TIMES WITH IN THE FIRST 6 WEEK OF PURCHASE AND THEN THE DEALERSHIP OF PURCHASE SENT IT TO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP WHICH IT HAS BEEN THERE 3 TIME IN A 2 MONTH PERIOD IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIX IT. THEY HAVE REPLACED MY STEERING DAMPENER,SWAY BAR LINK, TRACK BAR, BUSHING, BALANCED MY TIRES, AND REPLACED ANY IN THE FRONT SUSPENSION IN AN ATTEMPT TO FIX THE PROBLEM WHICH HAS NOT TO THIS POINT. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS PROBLEM- CAN'T BELIEVE THERE IS NOT A RECALL!

TAKATA RECALL. 6 MONTHS AFTER BEING INFORMED OF THE RECALL MY AIRBAG STILL HASN'T BEEN REPLACED. BUT MY LOCAL JEEP DEALER WOULD BE PERFECTLY HAPPY TO SELL ME A BRAND NEW JEEP WITH A BRAND NEW AIRBAG. WHY ARE COMPANIES ALLOWED TO CONTINUE PRODUCING NEW VEHICLES BEFORE FIXING A SAFETY RECALL FOR EXISTING CUSTOMERS? I WANT MY VEHICLE FIXED AND SAFE!

JEEP IS SPITTING BACK FUEL DURING FILL UP. CHRYSLER IS TELLING ME THAT MY JEEP IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT OTHER 2008 JEEP WRANGLERS HAVE NOW BEEN GIVEN. I HAVE VIDEOS OF THIS SPITBACK HAPPENING. (INLET CHECK VALVE DEFECT) ONE DEALER SAID IT WAS COVERED BUT CHRYSLER SAYS NO. HAVE BEEN TRYING TO GET CHRYSLER TO REPAIR IT FOR 2 YEARS NOW.

PURCHASED VEHICLE NEW AND HISTORICALLY/CURRENTLY WHILE FILLING THE FUEL TANK AT NUMEROUS GAS STATIONS THE TANK OVERFLOWS SPLASHING GASOLINE ON THE VEHICLE, GROUND, AND PERSONAL CLOTHING. (THE VEHICLE IS PARKED WITH ENGINE OFF WHILE REFUELING)

GAS OVERFLOWS AND SPILLS OUT DURING EVERY FUELING. I THINK IT IS AN INLET CHECK VALVE ISSUE. GAS TANK ALSO LEAKS GAS AROUND THE FUEL PUMP SEAL. SMELLS LIKE GAS OUTSIDE THE VEHICLE

WHEN FILLING GAS TANK FUEL COMES SPEWING OUT BEFORE THE FUEL SHUTOFF ON THE PUMP KICKS IN. NO MATTER IF I AM HOLDING THE LEVER DOWN JUST A TINY BIT TO JUST SLOWLY FILL IT UP.EVERY TIME!
