2006 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

2006 RUBICON WITH 40K MILES. FUEL SPRAYS OUT FROM THE GASOLINE FILL TUBE AND RUNS DOWN THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE ONTO THE PAVEMENT EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS REFUELED. THE DEALERSHIP SAYS THE FUEL TANK MUST BE REPLACED TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. IT DOESN'T MAKE SENSE TO PAY FOR A NEW FUEL TANK WITH THE SAME DEFECT. THIS IS APPARENTLY A WIDESPREAD ISSUE AND SHOULD BE RECALLED. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WOULD IDLE IMPROPERLY AND STALL INTERMITTENTLY. THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WOULD ALSO ILLUMINATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC WHO ADVISED THE CONTACT THAT THE OIL PICKUP DRIVE ASSEMBLY WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. BOTH THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED AND WERE AWARE OF THE ISSUE; HOWEVER, INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE PARTS TO REPAIR THE FAILURE WERE ON BACK ORDER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 29,556 AND THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 25,000.

I WOULD LIKE TO COMPLAIN ABOUT A 2006 RHD JEEP WRANGLER I PURCHASED FROM [XXX]. ON 4/01/10. LEMON IS NOT THE WORD. BEFORE DRIVING OFF THE LOT WITH VEH. I NOTICED THE FAN SWITCH FOR THE AC/HEATER ONLY OPERATED ON HIGH SPEED. HOURS LATER THE DEALERSHIP FINALLY REPLACED THE SWITCH FROM SOMEONES PERSONAL VEH. BECAUSE THE SWITCH IS SO HARD TO COME BY APPARENTLY. WITHIN 2 MOS THE SWITCH FOR THE FAN WENT OUT AGAIN. HAD TO WAIT ANOTHER 3 MOS. (ON BACK ORDER) THE GEAR SHIFTER CABLE BROKE NEXT AND HAD CAR TOWED AND REPAIRED. ALSO, IT WAS RUNNING EXTREMELY HOT, I WOULD HAVE TO SHUT VEH. DOWN TO COOL. THEN TO TOP IT OFF ON AUG. 13TH 2010 THE TRANS FELL OUT ON MY WAY TO WORK. I BOUGHT THE VEH ON APR 1ST (FOOLS DAY) AND BOY WAS I FOOLED. I THOUGHT THIS WOULD BE A DEPENDABLE, RELIABLE VEH. FOR MY JOB, THE POSTAL SVC EVEN GIVES $1000 INCENTIVES FOR THEIR CARRIERS TO BUY JEEPS. BIGGEST MISTAKE I'VE EVER MADE. I COULD OF LOST MY JOB TRYING TO DRIVE THIS JEEP IF MY BOSS HADN'T BEEN UNDERSTANDING ABOUT ALL THE BREAKDOWNS AND DOWNTIMES I HAD. I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND A JEEP TO MY WORST ENEMY. JEEP TO ME STANDS FOR JUST EMPTY EACH POCKET. EVEN JEEP WONT STAND BEHIND THEIR VEH. CAN'T BUY EXTENDED WARRANTY FOR A RHD JEEP THEY DESIGNED TO DELIVER MAIL IN. IS THAT A JOKE OR WHAT? I HAVE OWNED NUMEROUS VEH. AND NOT PAID NEAR THE PRICE I DID FOR THIS JEEP AND THIS HAS TO BE THE WORST EXPERIENCE EVER. BE SMART DON'T MAKE THE MISTAKE I DID. IF YOU DO BUY A JEEP BETTER BUY IT BRAND NEW UNDER WARRANTY CAUSE YOU WILL NEED IT. BIG TIME. AND GET OUT FROM UNDER IT BEFORE THE WARRANTY GOES OUT. THE DEALERSHIP NOR THE MANUFACTURES OF THE JEEP WERE WILLING TO HELP ME AT ALL. I WAS STUCK WITH IT AND NOTHING I COULD DO. I AM JUST NOW (6 MOS. LATER)REBUILDING THE TRANS. I HAD TO HAVE A BREAK FROM IT. I WAS TIRED OF STAYING STRESSED OUT AND UPSET. AS SOON AS IT IS REPAIRED I AM TRADING IT. GET A WARRANTY FOR SURE.

GASOLINE SPLASH BACK FROM FILLER NECK WHEN FILLING TANK. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME TANK IS FILLED.

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED, AND ALMOST EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS TANK IT OVERFLOWS, OFTEN SPRAYING A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF FUEL BEFORE THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN WHEN IT WAS NEW, BUT HAS BEEN HAPPENING OFF AND ON, GETTING PROGRESSIVELY WORSE, FOR THE PAST 3 YEARS. I BELIEVE THIS PRESENTS BOTH A FIRE HAZARD AND AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD, AND I KNOW THAT MANY OTHER WRANGLER OWNERS HAVE OBSERVED THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL SPILLS OUT DURING REGULAR PUMPING AT GAS STATION. THIS HAPPENS DURING THE END OF THE PUMPING WHEN THE TANK IS ALMOST FULL. GASOLINE WILL SHOOT OUT OF THE FILLER SPOUT AND ONTO THE GROUND. *TR

FUEL ALWAYS SPEWS OUT OF TANK WHEN FILLING UP. WILL NOT ACTIVATE PUMP AUTO-SHUT-OFF. EXTREMELY DANGEROUS CONDITION! *TR

EVERYTIME I FILL UP THE JEEP WITH FUEL, IT SHUTS OFF THE PUMP, THEN OVERFLOWS FUEL ONTO THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND ONTO THE GROUND. *TR

1. REFILLING FUEL TANK. 2. ONCE TANK IS FULL AND PUMP HANDLE TURNS OFF; A SURGE OF FUEL IS SPIT OUT OF THE FUEL FILLER, ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I REFILL THE TANK. 3. NO CORRECTIVE ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN. *TR

FUEL SPITS OUT OF TANK WHEN FILLING NO MATTER HOW YOU FILL TANK . WILL SPIT FUEL ON GROUND ON AUTO FILL OR MANUAL FILL ANY STATION. HAVE HAD FUEL ON MY SHOES AT TIMES MUST STAND BACK AROUND CORNER OF JEEP. *TR
