2007 JEEP WRANGLER 2-DR 4X4 Complaints

WHENEVER I PUT GAS INTO MY TANK AND FILL UP, THERE IS ALWAYS AN OVERFLOW OF GASOLINE SPILLING OUT OF THE TANK AND ONTO MY JEEP AS WELL AS ONTO THE FLOOR. ASIDE FROM THE DAMAGE BEING DONE TO MY VEHICLE, THIS CAUSES DAMAGE TO THE ENVIRONMENT FROM FUMES AS WELL AS RAISING THE POTENTIAL FOR FIRES. *KB

I HAVE A 2007 WRANGLER X WITH 37K ON IT, AND FOR THE LAST 2 YEARS MY PASSENGER AIR BAG LIGHT HAS ILLUMUNATED AND IT HAS BEEN INTO THE DEALERSHIP WHILE STILL UNDER WARRENTY AND THE DEALERSHIP DID NOT FIX IT OR EVEN MENTION THAT IT EXISTED, A SAFETY ISSUE, NOT ONLY THAT BUT ALSO THE CRUIZ CONTROL AND HORN DO NOT WORK EITHER. CAN YOU SAY CHRYSLER NEEDS TO STEP UP TO THE PLATE AND ADJUST ACCORDINGLY WITH THE FAULTY CLOCKSPRING DEAL? THIS IS REDICULOUS AND I CAN NOT AFFORD 500 BUCKS TO THROW INTO FAULTY PARTS AND LABOR TO REPLACE THE FAULTY PART. WHERE IS CHRYSLER??? ARE YOU LISTENING TO YOUR CUSTOMERS? NO. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL MY JEEP WRANGLER WITH GAS AS SOON AS THE GAS PUMP STOPS PUMPING IT SPITS FUEL BACK OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE. I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL GAS STATIONS AND IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME. *TT

UPON DRIVING OVER AN UNEVEN AREA OF PAVEMENT (I.E. TRAIN TRACKS, EXPANSION JOINT, ETC.) STEERING WHEEL AND FRONT WHEELS SHAKE VIOLENTLY BACK AND FORTH. FIRST OCCURRENCE IN MARCH 2009 AT 24,575 MILES, DEALER DETERMINED IT WAS THE STEERING DAMPENER, REPLACED. SECOND OCCURRENCE IN SEPTEMBER 2010 AT 27,929 MILES, DEALER REPLACED THE DAMPENER AND UPDATED MOUNTING BRACKET. THIRD OCCURRENCE APRIL 2011 AT 33,845 MILES (ONLY 5,916 MILES ON SECOND REPLACEMENT). DEALER REFUSED TO DO ANYTHING BECAUSE IT WAS OVER THE 12 MONTH PART WARRANTY. CONTACTED CHRYSLER COMPLAINT RESOLUTION, SAME ANSWER. THEY STATED THEY CONTACTED THE DEALER WHO SAID THEY REFUSED REPAIR DUE TO "EXCESSIVE OFF-ROAD USAGE". VEHICLE HAS NOT BEEN USED OFF ROAD SINCE THE SECOND REPLACEMENT AND THE DEALER HAS NOT SEEN THE VEHICLE SINCE THEN. *TR

WHILE TURNING INTO MY DRIVEWAY MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER X (WITH 55000 MILES) "CHIMED" AND THE AIR-BAG , TRACTION CONTROL, AND ANTI-LOCK BRAKE WARNING LIGHTS LIT UP. UPON INVESTIGATING THE ISSUE I FOUND THAT THIS LEAVES THE SAFETY SYSTEMS INACTIVE! A BAD "CLOCK SPRING" IN THE STEERING WHEEL IS HE CAUSE OF ALL THE SYSTEM FAILURES. MY VEHICLE IS NO LONGER COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, BUT I FEEL THAT THIS SHOULD STILL BE COVERED BY JEEP/CHRYSLER. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN OR ME AND MY FAMILY. *TR

IN THE LAST MONTH I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH GAS OVERFLOWING OUT OF THE FUEL TANK FILLER AFTER THE GAS PUMP CLICKS OFF. THE GAS COMES OUT AND RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND. THE PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED DURING 3 OUT OF 4 FILL-UPS IN THE LAST MONTH. I HAVE NOT DONE ANYTHING YET TO CORRECT THE ISSUE. *TR

KNOCKING NOISE COMING FROM UNDERNEATH THE VEHICLE WHEN DRIVEN. IT WOULD COME AND GO, MECHANIC CHECKED FOR THE OBVIOUS LOSS PARTS (MUFFLER, SHOCKS, ETC...). THE NEXT DAY WHEN THE NOISE REAPPEARED, THE MECHANIC HAS DRIVEN LESS THAN A QUARTER MILE WHEN THE ENGINE SEIZED. MECHANIC DROPPED THE OIL PAN AND FOUND METAL SHAVINGS IN THE OIL AND THE BEARING HAD SPUN. CHRYSLER IS REFUSING TO TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY TO FIX THIS COMMON PROBLEM IN THE 2007 JEEP WRANGLER. THE MECHANICS WE HAVE SPOKEN WITH HAVE RELATED THAT THE NEW 07 3.0 LITER ENGINE WAS FOUND TO HAVE ISSUES THAT LEAD TO THIS SPUN BEARING. REPAIRS AND PARTS ARE WELL OVER $8000. *TR

ON MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER MY CLOCKSPRING WENT OUT AND POSED A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH MY SAFETY. WITH THE CLOCKSPRING OUT OF COMMISSION MY AIRBAGS WOULD NO LONGER DEPLOY. WHEN I WENT INTO MY LOCAL DEALER TO HAVE IT FIXED AND ASKED IF IT WOULD BE COVERED UNDER MY EXTENDED WARRANTY AND THE SERVICEMAN TOLD ME IT WOULDN'T BECAUSE HE SAID IT WAS A WIRING PROGRAM AND THAT MY WARRANTY DID NOT COVER WIRES. I TOLD HIM THAT THE CLOCKSPRING WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. THE END RESULT WAS THAT I HAD TO PAY $437. *TR

CLOCK SPRING PREMATURE FAILURE. CAUSES HORN TO NOT WORK AND AIR BAGS LIKELY WON'T FUNCTION EITHER. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4X4. THE CONTACT WAS DRIVING 60 MPH WHEN THE FRONT WHEELS BEGAN TO SHAKE UNCONTROLLABLY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE WOULD CEASE ONCE THE VEHICLE WAS DECELERATED TO 40 MPH. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE LOCAL MECHANIC WHO ADJUSTED THE TIRE PRESSURE AND PERFORMED AN ALIGNMENT BUT TO NO AVAIL. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED DEALER BUT THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A SECOND DEALER WHO ADVISED THAT THE FAILURE WAS ATTRIBUTED TO A COMBINATION OF A DEFECT IN THE STEERING DAMPENER, TIRE WEAR AND AN ALIGNMENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND A COMPLAINT WAS FILED UT NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE WAS OFFERED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,106.
