2011 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

WHEN I GO TO GAS STATION AND FILL UP MY JEEP GAS OVERFLOWS OUT THE TANK FILL TUBE AFTER PUMP SHUTS OFF. AT FIRST IT ONLY HAPPENED OCCASIONALLY WITH MINIMAL SPILLAGE. NOW IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL UP!!!! IT MAKES A GIANT MESS ALL OVER THE FENDER, BUMPER, AND THE GROUND AND ME!!!! I HAVE TRIED MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS, DIFFERENT SETTINGS ON THE NOZZLE(SLOW, MED, FAST). I HAVE STOOD THERE AND PUMPED BY HAND PUSHING NOZZLE FIRMLY AGAINST FILLER TUBE TO HELP PREVENT THE FUEL BLOW BACK. NOTHING WORKS!!! THE FILLER TUBE OR GAS TANK IS DEFECTIVE!!!! THIS WASTES GAS EVERY TIME I FILL UP,COSTING ME MONEY!! ITS RUINING THE FINISH ON MY BUMPER, FENDER, AND MUD FLAP. MOST IMPORTANTLY ITS GASOLINE RUNNING ALL OVER THE PLACE INCLUDING ME!!!! CAN YOU SAY FIRE HAZARD!!! THIS SHOULD BE RECALLED BY JEEP AND FIXED ASAP!!! *TR

THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME THE FUEL TANK IS FILLED UP. IT HAS HAPPENED ON MULTIPLE DIFFERENT PUMPS AND EVERY TIME WHEN THE TANK IS FILLED FULL. THE GAS SHOOTS OUT ONTO THE CAR AND COULD POSSIBLY GET ON THE PERSON FUELING THE AUTOMOBILE AS WELL. *TR

ON THE 2011 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DASHBOARD, THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT FLASHES ON EVERY OTHER MINUTE WITH A CHIME, AN INDICATION THAT THERE IS SOMETHING MALFUNCTIONING OR INTERFERING WITH THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS.THIS HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE AND CONCERN FOR MANY 2011 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) OWNERS, INCLUDING MYSELF, AND HAS BEEN SHOWN TIME AND TIME AGAIN TO BE CAUSED BY A FAULTY CLOCKSPRING WITHIN THE VEHICLE'S STEERING WHEEL. THIS FAULTY CLOCKSPRING IS THE CULPRIT FOR POTENTIAL AIRBAG FAILURE IN THE 2011 JEEP WRANGLER (LHD) DURING AN ACCIDENT OR PREMATURE DEPLOYMENT WHEN SIMPLY DRIVING AROUND. DAIMLER CHRYSLER HAS REFUSED TO ADDRESS THE SAFETY CONCERN OF THEIR FAULTY CLOCKSPRING THAT CAN CAUSE FAILURE OF THE VEHICLE'S AIRBAGS FROM PROPERLY DEPLOYING

EXCESSIVE FUEL SPIT BACK WHEN REFUELING, EVEN AFTER GAS NOZZLE IS STOPPED. GASOLINE "BUBBLES" AND AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT COMES OUT OF THE TANK EVEN IF NOT FULL BUT CLOSE TO FULL. *TR

FOR THE THIRD FILL-UP IN A ROW, WHEN THE PUMP SHUTS OFF AN ADDITIONAL AMOUNT OF GAS SPURTS OUT OF THE FILL UP TUBE AND DOWN THE REAR LEFT SIDE OF THE JEEP. THE JEEP IS NOT OBEYING/MONITORING THE LEVEL OF THE FUEL BEING PUMPED INTO IT AND WHEN IT RISES TO A NORMAL CUT OFF LEVEL THE JEEP IGNORES IT AND ALLOWS MORE FUEL TO ENTER THE VEHICLE. IT'S TOO LATE TO SHUT IT OFF EACH TIME. EACH TIME IT HAS DONE THIS IT BURPS UP ABOUT 1/2 A GALLON TO A GALLON OF GAS. IT'S DISCOLORING THE PLASTIC FENDER AND CAUSING A MESS. I HAVE NEVER HAD A VEHICLE DO THIS BEFORE. EVERY VEHICLE I HAVE OWNED SHUTS OFF CORRECTLY, THEY HAVE MONITORED THE FUEL INTAKE LEVEL AND SIGNALED FULL BEFORE THE OVERFLOW HAPPENS. LIKE HOW IT SHOULD WORK. *JS

I WAS TRAVELING NORTH IT HAD SNOWED THE DAY PRIOR ROADS WERE SLICK OR SO I THOUGHT THE JEEP WAS STEERING STRANGE I WAS TRAVELING UP A SMALL INCLINE AND TOOK THE FIRST OF TWO TURNS I MADE THE FIRST AND LOST ALL CONTROL GOING INTO THE SECOND IN TO THE DITCH MISSING A LARGE TREE AND BOUNCED OUT OF THE DITCH AND DOWN THE DITCH ON THE OTHER SIDE. WITH MY SEAT BELT ON I WAS STILL THROWN ALL AROUND THE CAB OF THE JEEP IN PAIN STILL THANK YOU. AFTER GETTING A TOW TRUCK WE FOUND THE STEERING BAR COMING OFF THE STEERING BOX WAS OFF AND WHEN WE LOOKED CLOSER THE SHAFT ON THE STEERING BOX HAD BROKEN COMPLETELY OFF. I FIND THIS HARD TO BE LEAVE THAT SHAFT IS OVER A HALF INCH THICK. SO TO SUM IT UP I AM VERY LUCKY I HAD NOT MADE IT TO THE HIGHWAY IT WOULD NO HAVE BEEN A GOOD THING FOR MYSELF AND ANY OTHER DRIVERS ON THE HIGHWAY THAT NIGHT. *TR

WHEN FUELING, WITH THE GAS PUMP LOCKED, THE FILLER TUBE BURPS/SPITS GAS WHEN THE NOZZLE SHUTS OFF. THIS EVENT HAPPENS WHEN THE GAS PUMP IS FILLING BOTH SLOW AND FAST. GAS SPITS OUT ONTO THE FENDER AND ALL OVER THE PAINT UNDER THE FILL TUBE. *TR

WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 50MPH AND THEN BEGIN TO SLOW DOWN ON A MAJOR HIGHWAY. THE STEERING WHEEL BEGINS TO WOBBLE BACK AND FORTH VIOLENTLY AND THE WHOLE VEHICLE SHAKES LIKE CRAZY, AND THE MUFFLER SPUTTERS LIKE IT IS ABOUT TO SHUT OFF. I HAVE HAD TO FORCEFULLY STEER TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD AND MY VEHICLE CONTINUES TO SHAKE, THE ONLY WAY TO GET IT TO STOP IS TO TURN IT OFF AND RESTART IT. THIS ALSO HAPPENED WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS SITTING IN MY GARAGE AND I TURNED IT ON TO WARM IT UP, IT STARTS TO SHAKE AND SPUTTER AFTER ABOUT 30 SECONDS OF BEING TURNED ON. I'VE HEARD IT CALLED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" AND I UNDERSTAND WHY. THIS HAS HAPPENED NUMEROUS TIMES OVER THE LAST 4 MONTHS. THE CONDITION SEEMS VERY DANGEROUS TO ME. *TR
