2008 JEEP WRANGLER 2-DR 4X4 Complaints

TRANSMISSION COOLER LINES ARE LEAKING FLUID AT THE HOSE TO TUBE CRIMP JOINTS.CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY SAID FOR MY VIN NUMBER THERE IS NO RECALL. ITS MY UNDERSTANDING THERE WAS A RECALL ON 2008-2009 JK AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION LINES LEAK AT HOSE CRIMP JONTS FORFOR CERTAIN MANUFACTURING MONTHS IN THOSE YEARS BUT NOT IN MINE IT WASBUILT IN JANUARY2008.CHRYSLER WINN NOT ASSIST IN COST OR REPACEMENT.ITS OUT OF WARRANTY AND ONLY HAS 40,503 MILES ON IT.

DEATH WOBBLE, 50+ MPH, MINOR BUMP VIOLENT FRONT END SHAKING, UNABLE TO STEER OR BRAKE. COAST UNTIL NEAR STOP AND THEN CONTINUE AS IF NOTHING HAPPEN. TO BE ON SAFE SIDE REPLACED ENTIRE FRONT END WITH QUALITY PARTS AS NO PART TESTED BAD BUT REPLACEMENT PARTS USA MADE WERE BETTER QUALITY THAN ORIGINAL. STOCK 45K VEHICLE. COMBINATION OF POOR DESIGN WITH SLIGHT WEAR. ANY COMBINATION SOONER OR LATER IS GOING TO CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY. RESEARCH SHOWS THIS HAPPENS OFTEN WITH NO ACTUAL RECOURSE, IT WAS EXPENSIVE BUT SAFEST RECOURSE. NOT SURE WHY THIS HAS NOT BEEN ADDRESS BY MANUFACTURE AS ONLINE VIDEO'S ARE ACCURATE. TRUST ME, SIX FLAGS HAS NOTHING THAT WILL RATTLE YOU MORE.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT CONTINUALLY TURNS ON AND OFF IN MY JEEP. THIS IS ACCOMPANIED WITH A CONTINUOUS WARNING PING THAT GOES OFF WHEN YOU ARE ALMOST OUT OF GAS OR NEED SOMETHING CHECKED ASAP. THIS IS PROBABLY BECAUSE THE AIRBAG WILL NOT WORK AND IS A SAFETY HAZARD. 2007 JEEPS HAVE A RECALL FOR THIS AND IT IS A FAULTY COIL SPRING IN THE STEERING WHEEL. LOOKING ON ANY FORUM SITE OR EVEN THIS ONE AND YOU WILL SEE MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME ISSUE. JEEP TOLD ME THAT I WOULD NEED TO PAY OUT OF POCKET TO GET THIS FIXED UNTIL A RECALL IS ISSUED. CONSIDERING MY JEEP AND MANY OTHERS ARE HAVING THIS OCCUR WELL BEFORE 100K MILES THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH THE PART THAT THEY ARE PUTTING INTO THE CARS.

VEHICLE WHEN PARKED AND / OR WHILE DRIVING WILL START BLARING THE HORN, SPRAYING WIPER FLUID, WIPERS ENGAGE, LIGHTS GO ON AND OFF / THEN OFF AND THE ONLY WAY TO MAKE IT STOP IS TO BATTERY OR GIVE THE TIPM AN EASY TAP ON THE TOP. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO DEALER AND THEY WANT TO START REPLACING ELECTRICAL COMPONENTS STARTING WITH THE CHEAP ONE AT 350.00. THIS STARTED HAPPENING AT AROUND 40K MILES AND AT THE TIME THERE WERE NOT ANY MODIFICATIONS ON THE JEEP.

MY KIDS AND I WAS DRIVING IN MY 2008 JEEP RUBBICON 4 WHEEL DRIVE OFF ROAD VEHICLE ON MY LAND WHEN MY JEEP CAUGHT FIRE CAUSING A TOTAL LOSS AND CAUSING OTHER DAMAGES LIKE BURNING MY FIELD UP AND FOUR WHEELER ..I CALLED 911 TO COME ARRIVED 8 MIN LATER AND PUT THE JEEP OUT ALONG WITH THE FIELD AND ATV ..THEY MADE REPORT ON THE DAMAGES JEEP STILL REMAINS IN FIELD AT THIS TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER 2-DOOR 4X4. WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CLOCK SPRING FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 100,000.

AN UNSAFE CONDITION IS CREATED UPON COMPLETION OF REFUELING. AFTER PUMP CUT-OFF FUEL SPILLAGE OCCURS ON EVERY REFUELING OPERATION. THIS CONDITION IS UNAFFECTED BY CHANGING SPEED AT WHICH REFUELING IS PERFORMED. THIS IS NOT DUE TO "TOPPING OFF," REGARDLESS OF PUMP SPEED, ON FIRST PUMP CUT-OFF SPILLAGE OCCURS. THIS CONSTITUTES WASTED MONEY AND CREATES A PERSONAL SAFETY HAZARD AS WELL AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON EVERY FILL-UP FOR THE LAST SEVERAL MONTHS, MOST RECENTLY TODAY, 29 NOVEMBER 2015.

AIR BAG LIGHT IS COMING ON AT VARIOUS TIMES. IT WILL COME ON THEN GO OFF. IT MAKES A CHIMING SOUND. IT DOES THIS WHILE DRIVING WHEN I HIT A HARD BUMP OR TURN THE WHEEL. I CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY WILL NOT FIX IT. SHOULD THIS NOT BE A SAFETY THING THAT THEY SHOULD FIX FOR THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE? I READ THAT THEY HAVE RECALLED CERTAIN ONES EVEN ONES IN MY YEAR...BUT NOT MY VIN NUMBER FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM! I AM VERY CONCERNED THAT IF I WOULD NEED MY AIRBAGS THAT THEY WOULD NOT WORK. I HAVE READ THIS IS A RESULT OF THE CLOCK SPRING NEEDING REPAIR AND I DON'T HAVE THE MONEY TO GET IT FIXED.

HORN GOES ON & STAYS ON, WIPERS GO CONTINUOUSLY, WIPER FLUID FLOWS CONSTANTLY, BACK UP LIGHTS GO ON, HEATER FAN GOES OFF & ON, THE ENGINE CONTINUES TO RUN WITH THE KEY OUT OF THE IGNITION AND THE LAST TIME THE ABS CAME ON WHILE I WAS DELIVERING MAIL AND MY BRAKES LOCKED UP. ONCE IT HAPPENED WHILE PARKED ( THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING WITHOUT KEYS), ALL OTHER TIMES I WAS DRIVING ON RURAL ROADS AND IN DEVELOPMENTS, BOTH DRIVING HOME & DELIVERING MAIL. I HAVE VIDEO ON MY PHONE OF THE OCCURRENCE TWO SEPARATE TIMES.

WHEN TRYING TO FILL GAS TANK IT WILL NOT TAKE THE FUEL AS IT SHUTS THE PUMP OFF. IT TAKES ABOUT 20 MINUTES TO PUT IN $10 WORTH OF GAS IN. IT HAS PROGRESSIVELY GOTTEN WORSE.
