2007 JEEP WRANGLER Complaints

MY AIRBAG LIGHT WONT TURN OFF NOR WILL MY ESP BAS LIGHT OR TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT.

UNABLE TO GET VEHICLE IN FOR AIRBAG RECALL. AUTOMATION CHRYSLER JEEP JUST TRANSFERRED ME AROUND AND I GAVE UP. MEDVED IS MORE THAN 2 WEEKS OUT AND YOU HAVE TO LEAVE IT ALL DAY. WHAT IS THE POINT OF A SAFETY RECALL IF THE DEALERSHIPS WILL NOT DO IT.

WHILE DRIVING APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT IN TOWN THE WIPERS CAME ON, WINDSHIELD FLUID STARTED SPRAYING, HORN WAS BLARING AND ENGINE STALLED. THE 2ND TIME I WAS ON A HIGHWAY GOING 55 MPH AND THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED I COASTED IN A SUBDIVISION STARTED THE ENGINE BACK UP AND THIS TIME WHEN I GOT HOME I COULD REMOVE KEY AND THE ENGINE WOULD CONTINUE TO RUN. I THINK THE PROBLEM IS THE TIPM BECAUSE WHILE THE 'CHRISTINE EFFECT' IS GOING ON I CAN TAP THE TIPM COVER AND IT STOPS.

MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER HAS A SERIOUSLY DANGEROUS PROBLEM COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS THE DEATH WOBBLE! I HAD NEVER HEARD OF IT UNTIL IT DID IT WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN A SMOOTH SUBURB STREET AND I SEARCHED THE INTERNET FOR HELP. THE JEEP OWNERS COMMUNITY NAMED IT THE DEATH WOBBLE BECAUSE IT LITERALLY WOBBLES AND SHAKES WITHOUT ANY WARNING LIGHTS, WITHOUT ANYTHING TRIGGERING IT, ON EVERY TYPE OF ROAD, AND AT EVERY SPEED. AFTER IT HAPPENED ON THE INTERSTATE WITH MY SON IN THE CAR WITH ME, I NO LONGER ALLOWED MY CHILDREN TO RIDE IN THE JEEP AT ALL. WE ALMOST DIED THAT DAY AS IT SHOOK SO VIOLENTLY ALMOST PUTTING US IN THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF THE INTERSTATE! WE MISSED GETTING T-BONED BY AN 18 WHEELER BY JUST A HAIR. IT WAS SO FRIGHTENING! THE JEEP DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPT SAID THERE'S NOTHING THAT THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT AND THAT IT WAS VERY COMMON. HOW IS SUCH A DANGER COMMON??? HOW CAN THESE VEHICLES BE LEGALLY SOLD?? THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED I WAS ALONE AND I ENDED UP IN A DITCH. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE OUT OF THE DITCH AND WENT TO NEARBY AUTO SHOP. THEIR DIAGNOSIS WAS THAT THE ENGINE "SLING A ROD" THEY SAID. FOR 3 MONTHS NOW, I HAVE BEEN MAKING PAYMENTS ON A JEEP SITTING DEAD IN AN AUTO SHOP. AS A SINGLE MOM I CAN'T AFFORD SUCH A HUGE REPAIR AND ROUTE 66 WARRANTY COMPANY DECIDED TO CANCEL MY ALREADY PAID FOR EXTENDED WARRANTY WHEN I FILED THE CLAIM ON IT. THEY DENIED IT AND SAID THEY'RE CANCELING ME. THIS VEHICLE IS GOING TO KILL SOMEONE. PLEASE HELP!!

DEATH WOBBLE, UNCONTROLABLE, VIOLENT SHAKING OF FRONT END OF VEHICLE. VERY LITTLE STREAING AND BREAKING ABILITY TO MOVE OUT OF THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC. OCCURES FREQUENTLY, FOR EXAMPLE, THREE TIMES IN ONE WEEK; TRAVELING BETWEEN 40 AND 55 MPH. I DON'T DARE DRIVE FASTER. JEEP IS NOT LIFTED OR MODIFIED.

VEHICLE CAUGHT FIRE WHILE SITTING IN DRIVEWAY IN FRONT OF HOME 30 MINUTES AFTER DRIVING THE VEHICLE. TOTAL LOSS.

FOR THE SECOND TIME A BRAKE LINE HAS BROKEN CAUSING BRAKE FAILURE WHILE DRIVING. I CALLED JEEP AND WAS TOLD THERE HAS BEEN NO RECALL AND THE DEALERSHIP'S SERVICE DEPARTMENT TAKES NO RESPONSIBILITY. MY DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AROUND A CIRCLE AT A MAJOR HIGHWAY INTERSECTION WHEN THE BRAKES FAILED. I GUESS A CERTAIN NUMBER OF PEOPLE MUST DIE BEFORE A RECALL IS MADE. HAVE HAD AN ELECTRICAL ISSUE WITH BLINKERS SINCE I OWNED THE CAR. WHEN TURNING OFF BLINKER WHEN CHANGING LANES, THE OPPOSITE BLINKER COMES ON. TRYING TO TURN THAT SIDE OFF, THEN MAKES THE OTHER SIDE COME BACK ON. IT TAKES GOING BACK AND FORTH FOR A FEW TIMES BEFORE IT WILL JUST TURN OFF.

NO TURN SIGNALS, NO PARKING LIGHTS, NO HORN, DOORS DO NOT UNLOCK/ LOCK, CRANKS FOR SEVERAL SECONDS BEFORE STARTING OR DOES NOT START, HAZARD INDICATORS TURN ON WITHOUT PROMPTING. THESE ISSUES MAKE FOR EXTREMELY DANGEROUS DRIVING. DEALER SAID I NEED A TIPM REPLACEMENT. THERE WAS A COMPLETED RECALL ON THE SOFTWARE FOR THE TIPM, BUT NOW THE ENTIRE COMPONENT IS FAULTY AND THE REPAIRS ARE OVER $1000.00

I HAVE BROUGHT AND CALLED THE DEALER ABOUT THE PART THEY NEED TO REPAIR THE AIR BAG CLOCK SPRING IN MY JEEP. THEY CONTINUALLY TELL ME THAT FIAT-CHRYSLER HAS NOT RELEASED THE PART. THIS RECALL HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT 5 YEARS NOW AND THEY HAVE NOT REPAIRED IT YET ! THIS IS MY SECOND REQUEST FOR HELP THE SRS SYSTEM LIGHT STARTS TO FLASH AT TIMES.

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER WITH A MANUAL TRANSMISSION. RECENTLY IT HAS STARTED TO OCCASIONALLY AND VIOLENTLY POP OUT OF FIRST GEAR. THE ISSUE ONLY HAPPENS FROM A STANDSTILL INTO A ROLLING START SUCH AS AT A STOP SIGN OR TRAFFIC LIGHT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE AS I COULD EASILY BE REAR ENDED IN BUSY TRAFFIC. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ IN THE DIFFERENT WRANGLER FORUMS, THERE HAVE BEEN MANY CUSTOMERS WITH THE SAME ISSUE. THERE IS A DETAILED TSB REGARDING THIS REPAIR. I KNOW STARTING IN 2008, THE JEEPS CAME WITH A LIFETIME WARRANTY ON THE POWERTRAIN. I'M INQUIRING TODAY AS TO WHY THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL ISSUED FOR THOSE OF US WITH THE '07. IT'S THE SAME MOTOR, SAME TRANSMISSION AS THE 08-2010 MODELS. I ONLY HAVE 124K MILES ON IT, AND HAVE OWNED THE JEEP FOR 10 YEARS. THE TSB RELATED INVOLVES REPLACING FIRST GEAR, AND THE 1/2 SYNCHROS. I HAVE ALREADY REACHED OUT TO JEEP/FCA AND WAS REFERRED BACK TO JUST SEEK REPAIR. I PERSONALLY BELIEVE THAT JEEP/CHRYSLER SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS KNOWN PROBLEM/ COMMON DEFECT IN ENGINEERING, ESPECIALLY SINCE THE MODEL YEAR JK AFTER '07 CAME WITH THE LIFETIME POWER TRAIN WARRANTY.
