2006 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

SINCE I'VE BOUGHT MY WRANGLER IN DECEMBER 2009 THE GAS TANK WILL OVERFLOW AND SPILL OUT ENOUGH GAS TO COVER THE VEHICLE ON THE SIDE BELOW THE GAS CAP AND SPILL A PUDDLE ON TO THE GROUND. I'VE READ NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE AND THERE IS NO RECALL CURRENTLY OUT THERE FOR IT. I FEEL THIS IS A HAZARD BECAUSE IT MEANS SOMETHING IS BEING LEFT OPEN INSIDE THE TANK TO ALLOW THE GAS TO OVERFLOW OUTOF THE FILL TUBE. ON TOP OF THIS EVERY TIME I FILL THE VEHICLE UP IM SPILLING GAS ONTO THE GROUND WHICH IS BOTH AN ENVIRONMENTAL CONCERN AND A SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

ALMOST ALWAYS GET A "SPLASH BACK" WHEN FUELING VEHICLE AS GAS STATION! VERY HARD TO LISTEN AND DECIPHER IF FULL, I TRY TO GUESS HOW MANY GALLONS I NEED TO FILL UP. SPILLS OUT GAS ON THE VEHICLE, ON THE GROUND, AND ON YOUR FEET! I HAVE READ THAT MANY OF THESE VEHICLES ARE HAVING THE SAME COMPLAINT, WITHOUT A RECALL, AND IT IS NOT THE GAS PUMPS PROBLEM. *TR

MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER SHAKES SO BAD IT IS SCARY. AT 45-65 MPH AND FOR NO REASON START SHAKING VIOLENTLY. I SPENT $1600.00 ON NEW PARTS. NEW SHOCKS, NEW RIMS,NEW STEERING DAMPER,NEW TRACKING BAR. NEW CAMBER,NEW BUSHING, NEW CONTROL ARMS. NOTHING WORKS. I MUST PULL OFF THE HIGHWAY TO MAKE IT STOP. THIS JEEP IS DANGEROUS!!!! *TR

FUEL OVERFLOWS WHILE FILLING UP TANK CREATING A VERY HAZARDOUS CONDITION. OFTEN TIMES SPLASHING ON THE PERSON FILLING IT UP. *TR

WHEN PUTTING FUEL IN THE VEHICLE WITHOUT USING THE HOLD OPEN FEATURE ON THE PUMP NOZZLE FUEL SPRAYED OUT AROUND THE NOZZLE AND RAN DOWN THE SIDE OF THE JEEP. *TR

I WANT TO REPORT AN ISSUE WITH MY JEEP WRANGLER 2006. I BOUGHT THIS CAR FROM JEEP IN ANNAPOLIS MARYLAND JEEP 2006 WITH 9,343 MILES ON IT. TWO MONTHS LATER IT BEGAN SHAKING UNCONTROLLABLY AT 50-55 MPH. ONLY AT THIS SPEED. THIS IS VERY SCARY WHEN IT HAPPENS AND HAVE ALMOST GONE OFF THE ROAD. THE ONLY WAY TO STOP IT IS TO ACCELERATE TO HIGHER SPEED OR TO SLOW DOWN. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE AND THEY DID A AN ALIGNMENT. THE SHAKING STOPPED AND 1 MONTH LATER IT STARTED AGAIN. A YEAR LATER, OF JUST PUTTING UP WITH THIS I BRING THE JEEP BACK TO THE DEALER. THEY TELL ME THAT THE CAUSE IS FROM WORN TIE RODS AND STEERING DAMPER WORN. IF THIS IS THE CAUSE OF THE SHAKE THEN THEY SHOULD HAVE TOLD ME THIS A YEAR AGO. I THINK THE WORN PARTS ARE A RESULT FROM THE SHAKE. NOT THE CAUSE. EITHER WAY , THE JEEP NOW HAS 26,000 MILES AND I'M ALREADY BEING TOLD TO PUT 2000 DOLLARS INTO IT FOR WORN PARTS. THESE PARTS ARE WEARING PREMATURELY BECAUSE OF THE SHAKE BUT NO ONE CAN DETERMINE THE CAUSE. IF I HAD BOUGHT THE CAR NEW , I COULD HAVE USED THE LEMON LAW BUT UNFORTUNATELY, I BOUGHT IT WITH LOW MILEAGE USED. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION AND WONDERING IF IT WILL TAKE A DEATH FOR SOMEONE TO RECALL THESE LIKE THE PROBLEM WITH TOYOTA ACCELERATOR. ITS VERY FRUSTRATION, AND THE AVERAGE PERSON DOES NOT HAVE THE TIME OR MONEY TO FIGHT SOMETHING LIKE THIS. I HAVE SEEN SO MANY PEOPLE WITH THE SAME COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET. SOMETHING SHOULD BE DONE. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 60 MPH WHEN A SQUEALING NOISE WAS HEARD FROM THE OIL PUMP ASSEMBLY NEAR THE CAM SHAFT. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE THE DEALER CONFIRMED THAT THE OIL FAILED TO PUMP THROUGH THE VEHICLE PROPERLY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND THEY ADVISED THAT THE VIN DID NOT QUALIFY FOR REPAIRS UNDER NHTSA CAMPAIGN ID NUMBER: 06V147000 (POWER TRAIN: CLUTCH ASSEMBLY). THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED, THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,500 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 37,000.

WHEN PUMPING FUEL INTO THE VEHICLE WHEN THE TANK GETS FULL THE FUEL PUMP DOESN'T SHUT OFF, INSTEAD THE FUEL SPRAYS OUT ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ON THE GROUND. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK THE FUEL SPILLS OUT AND DOWN THE SIDE OF MY JEEP. I HAVE WITNESSED THIS BEING A PROBLEM WITH NUMEROUS JEEP OWNERS AND BELIEVE THAT THIS IS A FAULTY INLET CHECK VALVE THAT IS NOT ONLY COSTING ME MONEY FROM WASTED FUEL BUT ALSO CREATING A ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD FROM SPILLED GASOLINE. *TR

GAS TANK OVERFLOWS WHEN REFUELING, RESULTING IN APPROXIMATELY 8 TO 24 OUNCES OF GASOLINE SPILLING OUTSIDE OF THE TANK, DOWN THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND ON TO THE PERSON FILLING THE TANK. THIS IS A RECURRING ISSUE THAT HAPPENS TO VARYING DEGREES EACH TIME THE JEEP IS REFUELED. *TR
