2006 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

ALL OF THE SUDDEN MY JEEP STARTED TAKING FOR EVER TO FILL AND SHOOTS GAS OUT ALL OVER ME AND THE GROUND... I HAVE TO STAND A THERE AND BARELY LET THE GAS TRICKLE INTO THE TANK AND I CANNOT EVEN SET IT ON THE LOWEST LEVER FOR HANDLE IT TAKES ME ABOUT 20 MIN TO PUT 40.00 DOLLARS WORTH OF GAS IN IT,,,, THE DEALER SAID THERE IS NO RECALL FOR THIS AND WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EMISSIONS WARRANTY... THEY ALSO TOLD ME TO CHECK FUEL FILLER PIPE FOR OBSTRUCTIONS AND TO PULL OUR MY VAPOR CANISTER AND CLEAN IT.... I DID BOTH AND IT DIDN'T FIX A THING..IM ALSO UNDERSTANDING THAT THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS PROBLEM..... I WORKED FOR CHRYSLER DEALERSHIPS FOR YEARS AND REALLY DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY WONT TAKE ANY ACTIONS.... I BOUGHT THIS JEEP BRAND NEW FROM WHERE I WAS WORKING AT... IT WAS MY DREAM VEHICLE... NOW IM NOT SO SURE... *TR

WHEN ADDING FUEL TO THE 2006 JEEP WRANGLER EITHER WITH AN AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF PUMP OR BY HAND THE FUEL OVER SPRAYS OUT OF THE NOZZLE HOLE WHEN THE TANK BECOMES FULL. THIS HAPPENS AT ANY SPEED YOU ADD FUEL SPILLING GAS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, ON THE PERSON ADDING THE FUEL, AND ALL OVER THE GROUND AT THE GAS STATION. THIS MOST LIKELY IS CAUSED BUT VACUUM PRESSURE NOT BEING RELEASED CORRECTLY BY THE FUEL INLET HOSE AND WOULD BE A DESIGN AND MANUFACTURE FLAW. *TR

EVERY TIME YOU FILL THE VEHICLE UP WITH GAS, GAS COMES POURING OUT OF THE FILLER OPENING. THIS HAPPENS ON ALL TYPES OF GAS PUMPS. SOMETHING IS WRONG WITH THE TANK OF VENTING SYSTEM BECAUSE THE PUMPS NEVER AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. GAS SPILLS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR. MANY OTHER JEEP OWNERS HAVE THIS SAME PROBLEM.

GAS TANK OVER FLOW EVERY TIME I FILL MY WRANGLER UNLIMITED WITH GAS. JEEP SAYS ONLY 07 AND 08 ARE RECALLED NOT 06.THEY DON'T THINK A QUART OF GAS ALL OVER THE JEEP AND THE GROUND, HELLO, IS A PROBLEM, WOW UNREAL. MAYBE E.P.A SHOULD CARE. APPARENTLY ALL 05 AN 06 WRANGLERS WERE NOT RECALLED OUTRAGEOUS!!! JEEP AND THE E.P.A SHOULD CARE A LOT MORE ABOUT OUR ENVIRONMENT!! ITS DISGUSTING AND SOMETHING HAS TO BE DONE ABOUT IT. PS I BOUGHT MY JEEP USED PREVIOUS OWNER NEVER TOLD ME ABOUT THE PROBLEM BUT FROM WHAT I READ ALL DO THE SAME. *TR

GAS STILL OUT WHEN FILLING UP GAS TANK. THE SYSTEM DOESN'T STOP AT GAS PUMPS ALL OTHER CARS EVER DRIVEN. GAS ALWAYS STILLS OUT BEFORE IT STOPS THE PUMP. THIS OCCURS AT ALL PUMPS AND APPEARS TO BE A COMMON AND ONGOING ISSUE WITH JEEP OWNERS. *TR

OPDA HAS A HIGH PITCHED SQUEALING NOISE COMING FROM IT. FROM WHAT I READ THIS CAN LEAD TO ENGINE FAILURE. *TR

THE AUTO SHUT-OFF FEATURE OF THE FUEL SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK. WHEN I FILL UP THE GAS TANK, FUEL WILL SPRAY / SPILL OUT. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE THAT I EXPERIENCED WAS AROUND 40K MILES. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP (AS IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY). THEY ADVISED ME THAT THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. AT THAT POINT, IT WAS OCCURRING INTERMITTENTLY. AT SOME POINT SHORTLY AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED, THE AUTO SHUT-OFF FEATURE OF THE FUEL SYSTEM FAILED COMPLETELY. NOW, EVERY TIME THAT I FILL UP THE GAS TANK, FUEL WILL SPRAY / SPILL OUT. THIS ISSUE CONTINUES TO THIS DAY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE (FUEL SPILLED ON THE VEHICLE, ON THE OPERATOR AND ON THE GROUND) AND AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE (FUEL SPILLED ON THE GROUND), NOT TO MENTION THE ECONOMIC ISSUE OF PAYING FOR WASTED GASOLINE AT ABOUT $4 PER GALLON. BASED UPON THE NUMBER OF REPORTED ISSUES WITH THIS, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL TO REMEDIATE THIS PROBLEM. THERE IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING FAULTY WITH THE DESIGN AND/OR MANUFACTURE OF THE PARTS USED IN THE 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT SOMEONE SHOULD HAVE TO DEAL WITH IN A VEHICLE THAT THEY PURCHASED WHEN NEW AND HAVE IMPECCABLY MAINTAINED. *TR

THE GAS ALWAYS OVER FILLS AND SPILLS OUT WHEN YOUR FILLING IT UP. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME I FILL UP THE GAS. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT STATION I AM AT OR WHAT THE WEATHER IS LIKE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING EVER SINCE I BOUGHT THE JEEP. EVERYONE I KNOW THAT OWNS A JEEP HAS THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRING. THIS IS A MAJOR FIRE HAZARD AND ALSO NOT WHAT I WANT TO HAPPEN WHEN GAS IS ALMOST $4.00 A GALLON. *TR

2006 LJ "UNLIMITED" JEEP WRANGLER FUEL OVERFLOWS FROM FILLER NOZZLE WHEN FILLING UP. HAPPENS WHEN PUMP NOZZLE CUTS OFF WHEN TANK IS FULL. HAPPENS EVERY TIME. SPEWS GAS OUT OF NOZZLE ONTO GROUND AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE JEEP. *TR

WHEN FILLING GAS TANK, PUMP NOZZLE WILL NOT SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY. CONSISTENT PROBLEM AT EVERY GAS STATION, RESULTING IN GASOLINE SPILLING OUT ONTO SIDE OF VEHICLE AND ONTO GROUND BEFORE NOZZLE SHUTS OFF. JEEP HAS ONLY 8,500 MILES ON IT. *TR
