2007 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

THE WARNING LIGHT FOR THE BRAKE ASSIST, AIRBAG & STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT UP. TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND WAS TOLD THAT THE CLOCK SPRING WAS FAULTY THAT IS WHY THE LIGHTS COME ON. THE COST TO REPAIR THE CLOCK SPRING IS OVER $800.00. ALL IT DOES IS MAKE IT SO THE WARNING LIGHTS TURN OFF, SO I HAVE CHOSEN NOT TO REPAIR IT. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE JK WRANGLERS. THE PROBLEM IS IF THERE REALLY IS AN ISSUE THEN I WON'T KNOW BECAUSE THE LIGHT IS ALWAYS ON. I FEEL THAT JEEP SHOULD REPAIR THIS AS A RECALL. *TR

ON 2007 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD), THE DASHBOARD AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT AND CHIME RANDOMLY AND FREQUENTLY GOES ON AND OFF. CONTACTED DEALER ALMOST A WEEK AGO. DEALER INDICATED THAT THEY ARE TOO BUSY TO LOOK AT IT NOW. I AM WAITING FOR A PART (UNRELATED TO THE AIRBAG) TO COME IN SO THE DEALER SAID THEY WILL LOOK AT AIRBAG WHEN THE OTHER PART COMES IN. ALTHOUGH THE DEALER IS NOT OVERLY CONCERNED THE RANDOM AND FREQUENT LIGHT AND CHIME ARE ANNOYING (WHICH BY DESIGN PROBABLY MEANS IT NEEDS MORE IMMEDIATE ATTENTION). *TR

I HAD DEATH WOBBLE FROM POORLY MADE PARTS. STEERING STABILIZER IS WAS TO SMALL TO HANDLE EVERYDAY DRIVING AND THE BALL JOINTS ARE JUNK. 600 BUCKS LATER I FIGURED IT OUT SINCE THE DEALERSHIP DIDN'T WANT TO DEAL WITH THE ISSUE AND TALKING TO MECHANIC FRIENDS IT'S A COMMON REPLACEMENT SINCE THE COMPANY USES CHEAP PARTS. ALSO HAVE LOTS OF ISSUES WITH THE ESP, EGR VALVE, FALSE CODES FROM EGR AND O2 SENSORS. AND TODAY MY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON AND HAS GONE OFF. AND EVERY SINGLE TIME I GET GAS IT'S SPILLS OUT ALL OVER THE PLACE AND THE THROW OUT BEARING WHINES WHICH I WAS TOLD IS ALSO JUNK AND CAN FAIL RIGHT FROM PURCHASE TO OVER 100,000 MILES. IT WOULD BE VERY NICE IF CHRYSLER WOULD FIX THE CHEAP PARTS MADE FOR THE JEEP JK MODEL. JUST LOOK AT FORUMS YOU WITH FIND THOUSANDS OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS MODEL OF JEEP. *TR

THE AIR BAG LIGHTS KEEPS RANDOMLY COMING ON & OFF ON MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 2WD. NO PARTICULAR TIME OR DAY OR SPEED. I CAN BE SITTING AT A STOP LIGHT & IT COMES ON. I HAD IT CHECKED & NO ONE COULD FIND A PROBLEM OTHER THEN THE LIGHT COMING ON. I DON'T WANT TO WAIT TILL I CRASH TO SEE IF THE AIRBAG WORKS. *JS

PARKING BRAKE FAILURE HAS OCCURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. BRAKES WILL NOT STAY ADJUSTED. I'VE ADJUSTED IT AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES. *TR

MY VEHICLE DEVELOPED A HORRIBLE WOBBLE IN THE STEERING AND SUSPENSION WHILE DRIVING AT ABOUT 60 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY. I SLOWED DOWN AND THE WOBBLE STOPPED BUT PERSISTED WHENEVER I WENT APPROXIMATELY 60 MPH. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE DEALERSHIP, THEY ARE VERY AWARE OF THE JEEP DEATH WOBBLE HOWEVER THE COST OF REPAIRS IS MINE TO BEAR. THIS COULD CAUSE A SIGNIFICANT ACCIDENT, YET JEEP IS IGNORING REPAIRING THIS. TO THIS DAY IT IS STILL NOT FIXED 100%. *TR

AT APPROXIMATELY 50MPH IF I HIT A MINOR BUMP IN THE ROAD MY JEEP BEGINS TO SHAKE VIOLENTLY AND CONTROL IS LOST TO THE VEHICLE TO THE POINT THAT YOU MUST COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE REGAINING CONTROL. THIS IS CALLED "DEATH WOBBLE" BY ONLINE COMMUNITIES AND SERVICE REPAIRMEN. THE INCIDENT ALMOST CAUSED A COLLISION AS I WAS UNABLE TO KEEP THE CAR IN MY LANE AND RAN ANOTHER CAR INTO A DITCH. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HURT OR PROPERTY DAMAGED. *TR
