2010 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

MY AIRBAG LIGHT KEEPS GOING ON AND OFF EVERY MINUTE WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I TOOK IT IN TO HAVE IT GET LOOKED AT AND THE DEALERSHIP INFORMED ME THAT IT WAS A CLOCK-SPRING ISSUE. I DID SOME RESEARCH AND SELECTED JEEP MODELS FROM 2007 TO 2012 HAD A RECALL FOR THIS ISSUE. WHEN I CONTACTED CRYSTLER ON THIS ISSUE THEY INFORMED ME THAT MY JEEP IS NOT PART OF THE RECALL EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE SAME PROBLEM AS OTHER JEEPS. IT IS GOING TO COST ABOUT $700.00 OUT OF POCKET TO FIX THIS ISSUE ON MY JEEP.

MY AIRBAG LIGHTS KEEP GOING OFF AND ON EVERY MINUTE OR SO. I CALLED CHRYSLER TO SEE IF THEIR WAS A RECALL ON THE CLOCK SPRING AND THEY SAID NO. THE REPAIR IS GOING TO COST ME $750.00.

JUST ABOUT EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY 2010 JEEP WRANGLER JK WITH GAS, IT SPITS GAS BACK OUT OF THE FILL UP NECK TUBE. WHEN I GET HOME AND PARK IT IN THE GARAGE IT FILLS THE ENTIRE HOUSE UP WITH GAS ODOR. I AM VERY CONCERNED ABOUT OUR HEALTH AS THIS COULD NOT BE SAFE. JUST A SIDE NOTE, I AM ALSO CONCERNED WHAT THIS WILL DO TO MY NICE PAINT. I HAVE RESEARCHED THIS VERY GOOD AND HAVE READ SEVERAL OTHER CASES IDENTICAL TO MINE AND IT SEEMS THAT THIS PROBLEM NEEDS ADDRESSED.

ABS, ESP AND TRAC CONT. LIGHTS ALL CAME ON SIMULTANEOUSLY. DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY CLOCK SPRING MECHANISM. $587.58 BILL FROM THE DEALER, TO REPAIR. APPROXIMATELY 66, 140 MILES AT THE TIME OF FAILURE. WRANGLER, 2 DOOR, 4 WHEEL DRIVE. HIGHWAY SPEED, APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH. APPARENTLY IT WAS NOT COVERED BY NHTSA ID: 13V176000, CHRYSLER RECALL M31.

WE BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE ALMOST TWO YEARS DECEMBER. AFTER HAVING THIS VEHICLE AROUND 7 MONTHS WITH NO PROBLEMS, WE TOOK IT TO KING EXPRESSLUBE TO HAVE OIL CHANGED, IN WHICH, THE WRONG OIL FILTER WAS PUT ON VEHICLE RESULTING IN A BLOWN ENGINE. KING EXPRESSLUBE PAIR THE ENTIRE COST OF THE ENGINE AND THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO NORTH POINT JEEP. EVERY SINCE ENGINE WAS REPLACED, WE HAVE HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR NOT CRANKING. VEHICLE HAS BEEN TOWED TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP NUMEROUS TIMES WITH THEM SAYING, " WE CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG". WAS ADVISED TO CARRY A " HAMMER" TO TAP UNDER STARTER TO " SEE IF IT WILL CRANK" . SO IT BROKE DOWN AGAIN TWO WEEKS AGO WHICH THEY HAD THE VEHICLE TWO DAYS AND WAS RETURNED STATING THEY CAN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG! WOULD NOT CRANK AGAIN TODAY AND THEY FINALLY FOUND SOMETHING! SAID THAT IT WAS THE TIPM, OF COURSE THAT'S NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY AND IT WILL COST US 900.00 TO REPLACE PART! THIS HAS BEEN VERY TACKY BUSINESS PRACTICE SINCE I HAVE READ TODAY THAT CHRYSLER HAS KNOWN THIS IS A FAULTY PART AND UNWILLING TO STAND BEHIND THEIR VEHICLES! I AM VERY UPSET THAT THEY ARE UNWILLING TO HELP IN ANY WAY! THANK YOU FOR LISTENING TO MY STORY! SHANNON H

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2010 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE AIR BAG LIGHT REMAINED ILLUMINATED AND TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CLOCK SPRING FRACTURED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 77,000.

EVERYTIME I FILL UP WITH GAS AT THE GAS STATION , IT OVERFLOWS AND GETS GAS ALL OVER MY CAR AS WELL AS MYSELF.

RECENTLY PURCHASED A USED 2010 JEEP WRANGLER EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK GAS IT SPITS OUT ON AUTO SHUT OFF AND IS LIKE A GEYSER WHEN I REMOVE THE PUMP. GAS GOES ALL OVER MY HAND AND CLOTHES. I NOTE THERE ARE SEVERAL OTHER REPORTS OF THIS. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. THERE WERE > 900 COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS IN 2010-11. WHY WON'T CHRYSLER FIX THIS PROBLEM?

WAS DRIVING DOWN FREEWAY AND THE VEHICLE JUST WENT UP IN FLAMES OUT OF NO WHERE BEGINNING ON PASSENGERS SIDE UNDER THE HOOD. FIRE ENGULFED THE VEHICLE ENTIRELY. TOTAL LOSS.

THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLIES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED IN MY LEFT-HAND DRIVE JEEP WRANGLER. THE JEEP WRANGLER ALREADY HAS A RECALL FOR RIGHT-HAND DRIVE MODELS ADDRESSING BROKEN AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLIES. RECALL NUMBER: 13V176000 IN THE EVENT OF A CRASH NECESSITATING AIRBAG DEPLOYMENT, A BROKEN ELECTRICAL CIRCUIT IN THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING WIRING ASSEMBLY CAN LEAD TO NON-DEPLOYMENT OF THE DRIVER-SIDE FRONTAL AIRBAG AND WILL NOT BE ABLE TO PROPERLY PROTECT THE DRIVER, INCREASING THE RISK OF INJURIES. IN MY OPINION THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY RISK IN THE JEEP WRANGLER. I RECEIVED THE WARNING LIGHT WHILE THE JEEP WAS IN MOTION, AND LUCKILY I WAS NEAR A JEEP DEALERSHIP (BILL BRYAN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP, FRUITLAND PARK, FL 34731) WHERE I HAD THE BROKEN AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING ASSEMBLY REPLACED TO THE TUNE OF $500.
