2008 JEEP WRANGLER 2-DR 4X4 Complaints

I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER. EACH TIME I REFUEL THE GAS TANK IT SPEWS GASOLINE ON ME AS WELL AS THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND. THIS IS A FAIRLY LARGE AMOUNT AND MUST BE A FIRE SAFETY AS WELL AS A HEALTH HAZARD FROM DIRECT SKIN CONTACT. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM THE DEALERSHIP USED AND UNDER WARRANTY APPROXIMATELY 8 MONTHS AGO. THIS PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT 2 1/2 MONTHS AGO AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED. I AM TAKING VEHICLE BACK TO DEALERSHIP ALONG WITH A PRINTOUT OF THE COMPLAINTS ALREADY VOICED OF THE SAME NATURE SINCE THIS APPEARS TO BE A ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. *TR

WHEN REFUELING, MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER DOES NOT STOP THE GAS FLOW BEFORE THE TANK IS FULL. ABOUT 20-30 OUNCES OF GASOLINE USUALLY BUBBLES OUT OF THE GAS INLET AFTER THE PUMP STOPS, LEAVING A PUDDLE OF GAS ON THE GROUND EVERY TIME. CURRENTLY THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. *TR

I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER AND EVERY TIME I GO TO FILL UP MY GAS TANK, THE TANK WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY CUT OFF THE GAS PUMP WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR APPROX THE LAST 15,000 MILES AND I CURRENTLY HAVE 27,000 MILES ON THE JEEP. THE VEHICLE WAS BRAND NEW WHEN I PURCHASED IT. I HAVE THIS PROBLEM AT EVERY GAS STATION I HAVE TRIED SO I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS A GAS PUMP FAILURE. I HAVE ALSO FILLED OTHER CARS AT THE SAME GAS STATIONS WITH NO PROBLEMS. *TR

ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS MY UNMODIFIED 2008 JEEP WRANGLER X HAS GIVEN ME AN AUDIBLE "DING" WARNING AND THE AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON WHILE STUCK IN VERY SLOW MOVING HIGHWAY TRAFFIC (APPROXIMATELY 0-10 MPH). BOTH TIMES IT WAS APPROXIMATELY 85-90 DEGREES F OUTSIDE AND THE AIR CONDITIONING WAS OFF. THE SECOND TIME THIS HAPPENED THE "HOT OIL" WARNING RECALL FIX HAD ALREADY BEEN PERFORMED BUT I DID NOT RECEIVE THAT WARNING NOR DID THE TEMPERATURE GAUGE RISE MORE THAN HALF THE WIDTH OF THE NEEDLE. ON THE SECOND OCCASION THE "DING" AND AIRBAG WARNING LIGHT CAME ON REPEATEDLY OVER A PERIOD OF A HALF AN HOUR EACH TIME TRAFFIC SLOWED DOWN. *TR

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON INTERMITTENTLY FOR A PERIOD OF APPRX. 10 DAYS THEN STAYED ON CONSTANTLY. WHEN THE AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON THE AIRBAGS ARE NOT FUNCTIONING. THE JEEP DEALER SAYS IT IS A PROBLEM WITH A CLOCK SPRING SENSOR IN THE STEERING WHEEL. THE JEEP IS NOT COVERED BY WARRANTY AND THE MECHANIC TOLD ME IT IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM THAT WOULD MOST LIKELY REOCCUR. I WOULD HAVE TO PAY TO FIX THE JEEP AND PAY AGAIN WHEN THE PART WENT BAD AGAIN. I HAVE BEEN IN CONTACT WITH MANY OTHER 2008 JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER 2-DR 4X4. WHILE DRIVING 5 MPH UP AN EXTREMELY STEEP GRAVEL ROAD INCLINE, THE OIL WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE RPMS CONTINUED TO INCREASE BUT THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL FOR APPROXIMATELY 5 MINUTES AND THE OIL LIGHT SHUT OFF. HE WAS THEN ABLE TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE AS NORMAL. THE WEATHER WAS DESCRIBED AS VERY HOT DURING THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WHERE HE WAS INFORMED THAT THE TRANSMISSION FLUID POTENTIALLY BECAME EXTREMELY HOT, CAUSING THE FAILURE. THE DEALER ADVISED THE CONTACT TO INSTALL A COOLER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 35,900.

CORROSION TO CLOCK SPRING IN STEERING COLUMN RESULTING IN HORN FAILURE TO SOUND HARD TOP ROOF LEAKS LIKE A SIEVE IN RAIN RESULTING NECESSITATING MY REMOVING THE CARPET AND LEAVING DRAIN PLUGS OPEN-NOW THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS RUSTY FROM DAMP INTERIOR WON'T START IN PARK-ONLY STARTS IF SHIFTER SHOVED INTO NEUTRAL OR SHOVED FORWARD WHILE TURNING KEY DOOR HINGE PINS RUSTY FLAT TIRE LIGHT STAYS ON AIR BAG LIGHT PERIODICALLY ON, WHICH MEANS AIR BAG IS NOT FUNCTIONAL AT THOSE TIMES. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED X3. WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 40 AND 60 MPH, THE VEHICLE WOULD VIBRATE UNCONTROLLABLY WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER SEVEN TIMES IN REGARDS TO THE FAILURE YET THE DEALER WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS LEFT IN THE DEALER'S POSSESSION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

JEEP JK WRANGLER 2008 - GAS TANK OVERFLOWS AT EVERY FILL UP SPLASHING GASOLINE ONTO PUMP, PERSON, VEHICLE AND GROUND. RISK OF FIRE AND OR EXPLOSION. PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT TWO YEARS INTO VEHICLE AND HAS NOT GONE AWAY. DEALER NOT REPAIRING PROBLEM SINCE VEHICLE WARRANTY EXPIRED DUE TO MILEAGE; NOT YEARS. *TR

EVERYTIME I FILL MY 2008 WRANGLER WITH FUEL, IT SPILLS ALL OVER INCLUDING ME. THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD AS FUEL SPILLS ALL OVER MYSELF AND THE JEEP. I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT STATIONS AND STILL THE SAME RESULT. CHRYSLER SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG BUT I FEEL THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. EXPOSED FUEL IN HOT TEMP WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF SPARKS BY OTHER SOURCES WHILE FUELING. IT STARTED DOING THIS LAST JULY 2009 AND CONTINUES TO THIS DAY. *TR
