2011 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

MY 2011 JEEP WRANGLER HAS MAJOR ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS. THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS WOULDN'T TURN OFF EVEN AFTER SHUTTING OFF THE ENGINE. I PULLED THE FUSE BUT THEY STILL STAYED ON. I COULD SMELL SOMETHING ELECTRICAL BURNING SO I HAD TO DISCONNECT THE BATTERY. ALSO THE DOOR LOCKS DON'T WORK AND FRONT CIGARETTE LIGHTER STOPPED WORKING. I CALLED THE DEALER AND MADE AN APPOINTMENT TO BRING IT IN. WHILE DRIVING TO THE DEALER THE JEEP STARTED TO SHAKE HORRIBLY WHEN ACCELERATING (DUE TO ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH THE FUEL PUMP). THE DEALER SAYS THAT I NEED A NEW TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER CONTROL MODULE (TIPM). THE COST IS WELL OVER $1000 (THE VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY). WHEN I SEARCHED TIPM PROBLEMS ON-LINE I FOUND THAT CHRYSLER HAS TONS OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS BUT THE ONLY ISSUED A RECALL ON A FEW VEHICLE MODELS AND WRANGLER WASN'T INCLUDED. THERE ARE OBVIOUSLY A BIGGER NUMBER OF VEHICLES AFFECTED AND CHRYSLER SHOULD RECALL THE REMAINING MODELS. *TR

TRAVELING ABOUT 50 MPH IN SWEEPING LEFT TURN ON SMOOTH, PAVED ROAD, VEHICLE BEGAN TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY, DID NOT WANT TO RESPOND TO HARD BRAKING AND CONTINUED UNTIL UNDER 25 MPH. TIRES WERE CLOSE TO BEING WORN OUT, THEY WERE REPLACED WITH NEW ALIGNMENT. PROBLEM HAS CONTINUED WITH NEW TIRES. JEEP WAS AT DEALERSHIP 3 DAYS AND THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG, I WANT TO ADD THEY WERE CONCERNED AND VERY NICE BUT FOUND NO PROBLEM. DRIVING HOME FROM DEALERSHIP IT HAPPENED 3 TIMES AND HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES SINCE. DEALERSHIP SUGGESTED NEW TIRES WERE BAD, BUT THIS HAS NOW HAPPENED ON 2 SETS OF TIRES. THE PROBLEM OCCURS WITH SUCH VIOLENCE IT IS UNSAFE TO DRIVER, PASSENGER, AND OTHER VEHICLES SHARING THE ROAD. THIS ALSO HAPPENS ON ROADS WITH BUMPS ON STRAIGHTWAY SUCH AS MIGHT BE FOUND IN RIGHT LANE WHERE HEAVY TRUCKS CAUSE SURFACE DEFORMATIES. OUR JEEP HAS NO MODIFICATIONS TO ANY PART, STEERING, SUSPENSION, SHOCKS, OR HAS TIRES NOT RECOMMENDED FOR THIS VEHICLE. *TR

MY GAS TANK OVERFLOWS AT THE PUMP EVERY TIME I RE-FUEL STARTING IN JANUARY, 2015, 5 MONTHS AFTER MY WARRANTY EXPIRED BUT WITH ONLY 22,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. THE PUMP WILL SHUT OFF WHEN FULL, THEN SHORTLY AFTER, OVERFLOW SPILLS OUT ONTO THE GROUND. THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT THIS ISSUE IS TO GUESS WHEN IT IS GETTING CLOSE TO FULL AND STOP THE PUMP BEFORE IT IS FULL. A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FUEL SPLASHES ON ME IF I'M TOO CLOSE, ON THE BODY, BUMPER, AND GROUND, CAUSING A DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT COULD EASILY LEAD TO A FIRE. *TR

THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS COME ON TO REPORT A FAULT IN THE SYSTEM. THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM THAT JEEP WRANGLER JK OWNERS ARE HAVING. THE CLOCK SPRING IS FAULTY. THE RIGHT HAND DRIVE VERSION OF THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN RECALLED FOR THE SAME PART. BUT NOT THE LEFT HAND DRIVE? THIS IS MOST DEFINITELY A DEFECTIVE PART AS AFTER SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET ITS A WIDE SPREAD PROBLEM AND NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. PARTS FAILING AS SOON AS 1/12 YEARS. THE AIRBAG WILL NOT DEPLOY IF IN AN ACCIDENT. *TR

GASOLINE OVERFLOWS OUT OF VEHICLE DURING FUEL FILL UP. THIS OCCURS AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS USING DIFFERENT PUMPS. *TR

WHEN FILLING THE CAR WITH GAS THE CAR DOES NOT SHUT THE PUMP DOWN CAUSING GASOLINE TO SHOOT OUT OF THE FUEL FILLER. *TR

DECEMBER 2013, WHEN TEMPERATURES REACHED FREEZING AND LOWER, VEHICLE STARTED OVERFLOWING DURING REFUELING. THIS OCCURRED ON EVERY REFUELING OCCURRENCE THAT THE GAS PUMP SHOULD HAVE SHUT OFF ONCE THE TANK WAS FULL. THIS OCCURRED FROM DECEMBER 2013 UNTIL MARCH 2014 WHEN I WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICLE IN FOR MAINTENANCE. THE VAPOR CANISTER AND LEAK DETECTION PUMP FILTER WERE REPLACED. DECEMBER 2014, TEMPERATURES REACHED FREEZING AND BELOW; VEHICLE IS AGAIN OVERFLOWING DURING ALL REFUELING WHEN THE PUMP SHOULD HAVE SHUT OFF ON ITS OWN. THIS HAS OCCURRED AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS AND IS NOT ISOLATED TO ONE BRAND OF GASOLINE, FUELING STATION, OR STATE. ONCE THE PROBLEM BEGINS IT DOES NOT STOP WHEN TEMPERATURES INCREASE ABOVE FREEZING AND HIGHER. OBVIOUSLY THERE IS SOME KIND OF DEFECT IN THIS SYSTEM, BUT SO FAR JEEP/MOPAR HAS REFUSED TO ACKNOWLEDGE IT FOR 2011 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITEDS. *TR

EVERYTIME I FUEL UP, FUEL SPITS OUT ALL OVER THE BUMPER, WHEEL HUB, GROUND, AND SOMETIMES ME. THIS HAPPENS EVEN AFTER THE FACT THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. NOT ONLY IS THIS EXPENSIVE AFTER A WHILE, IT'S DANGEROUS AND HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR GREATER RISK. *TR
