2007 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR 4X4 Complaints

1. DURING NORMAL DRIVING CONDITIONS AT SPEEDS ABOVE 50MPH THE FRONT SUSPENSION WILL SOMETIMES GO INTO A VIOLENT OSCILLATION. THE STEERING WHEEL, SHIMMIES SO VIOLENTLY THAT IT CANNOT BE CONTROLLED. THE ENTIRE VEHICLE FEELS LIKE IT IS COMING APART. NOT A SIMPLE WHEEL BALANCE SHIMMY, THIS IS A DANGEROUS VIOLENT OSCILLATION. 2. IT GETS PROGRESSIVELY WORSE AS TIME GOES ON. 3. IT WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP, AND THEY REPLACED THE STEERING STABILIZER WHICH MADE THE PROBLEM BETTER, BUT IT CAME BACK SLIGHTLY, AND PROGRESSIVELY GOT WORSE, AND WORSE. THERE IS SOME UNDERLYING PROBLEM THAT THE STEERING STABILIZER IS MASKING. *TR

GAS TANK CONSISTENTLY OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLING TANK. AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF DOES NOT WORK. *TR

2007 JEEP WRANGLER VIOLENTLY POPS OUT OF FIRST GEAR. HAPPENS DAILY AND WILL EVENTUALLY LEAD TO A ACCIDENT. IT IS JUST A MATTER OF TIME. I WAS ALMOST REARENDED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. CHRYSLER TSB 21-001-10 FIXES THE ISSUE BUT IN WARRANTY ONLY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND A RECALL SHOULD BE ISSUED. *TR

SINCE ABOUT 6 MONTHS AGO OR WHEN I WAS AROUND 36,000 MILES MY WRANGLER 4DR WILL NO LONGER SHUT OFF THE GAS PUMP. IF I ATTEMPT TO FILL THE TANK GAS BURPS OUT EVERY TIME ALL OVER MYSELF AND THE JEEP. *TR

I AM THE OWNER OF A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WITH 56,000 MILES. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE NEW IN APRIL OF 2007. THE PROBLEM IS OVERFLOWING GAS WHEN THE TANK IS FILLED. ONCE THE TANK IS FILLED COMPLETELY, THE PUMP CLICKS OFF AND THE FUEL TANK THEN "BURPS" ABOUT 1 PINT OF FUEL OUT. AT TIMES, THE FUEL COMES OUT VIGOROUSLY IN A SPRAY MAKING IT EVEN MORE FLAMMABLE AND COVERING ME AND THE VEHICLE. I HAVE GONE TO MANY DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS SINCE AND HAVE THE PROBLEM EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. THE PROBLEM ALSO OCCURS WHEN I HOLD THE PUMP AND TRY TO LIMIT THE FUEL FLOW. PER THE DEALERSHIP'S RECOMMENDATION, I HAVE REPLACED THE VEHICLE'S EVAPORATION CANISTER, BUT THE PROBLEM REMAINS. *TR

ABOUT 3 MONTHS AGO, I WAS FILLING UP MY 2007 4 DOOR JEEP WRANGLER WITH GAS. THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF AND IMMEDIATELY FOLLOWING THE SHUT OFF GAS COME POURING OUT OF THE JEEP. IT SPLASHED ALL OVER ME AND PUDDLED ON THE GROUND. I THOUGHT IT WAS A DEFECTIVE GAS PUMP AND COMPLAINED TO THE STATION ATTENDANT. IT HAPPENED AGAIN AT THE NEXT FILL UP AND HAS AT EVERY FILL UP SINCE IF I DON'T CATCH IT FIRST. IT'S NOT THE GAS PUMP BECAUSE I'VE USED SEVERAL DIFFERENT STATIONS. THE ONLY WAY TO KEEP THE GAS FROM SPURTING OUT OF THE JEEP IS TO NOT FILL THE TANK ALL THE WAY FULL. THIS PROBLEM IS VERY DISTRESSING AND CAUSES A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION WITH GAS PUDDLING ON THE GROUND AND SPLASHING ON ME AND THE VEHICLE. I HAVE HAD A MECHANIC LOOK INTO THE DEFECT, HE RESEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND COMPLAINTS OF THE SAME PROBLEM FROM OTHER JEEP OWNERS. APPARENTLY THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH A FLAP INSIDE THE GAS TANK THAT BECOMES DEFECTIVE AND ALLOWS THE AIR INSIDE THE TANK TO PUSH GAS OUT THE NECK UPON FILLING THE TANK. MY MECHANIC IS CURRENTLY GETTING READY TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK. *TR

MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER GAS TANK DOES NOT CLICK OFF WHEN IT IS FULL AND GAS OVERFLOWS FROM THE TANK.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER: 4 DOOR, 4X4 LIMITED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY, THE BRACKET SEPARATED FROM THE STEERING AXLE. THE CONTACT NOTICED THAT WHEN HE ATTEMPTED TO BRAKE, THE VEHICLE DID NOT RESPOND; IT FINALLY STOPPED AFTER A QUARTER OF A MILE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR A DIAGNOSTICS TEST AND REPAIRED. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED AT THE TIME OF THE COMPLAINT. THE CURRENT AND FAILURE MILEAGES WERE APPROXIMATELY 31,000.

WRANGLER SPEWS A PINT OF GAS WHEN FIILLING UP. STARTED AT 30K, HAPPENS EVERY TIME NOW.

2007 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA FRONT ENDS SHAKES UNCONTROLLABLY. THIS IS TRIGGERED BY HITTING A BUMP AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AND CANNOT BE STOPPED WITHOUT SLOWING THE VEHICLE TO A NEAR STOP. THIS IS MORE THAN A "SHIMMY" AND HAS BEEN APPROPRIATELY TERMED THE "DEATH WOBBLE". THIS CAN CAUSE A FATAL CRASH. IT OCCURS ROUGHLY EVERY 5,000 MILES AFTER THE DEALERSHIP HAS REPLACED VARIOUS PARTS INVOLVED WITH STEERING. I HAVE HAD THE VEHICLE IN FOR REPAIR 6 OR 7 TIMES NOW. I HAVE REPLACED STEERING DAMPENERS AND STABALIZER BARS NUMEROUS TIMES. TIRES HAVE BEEN ROTATED AND ROAD FORCE BALANCED.
