2008 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR 4X4 Complaints

COMPLAINTS INVOLVING AIRBAGS- I WAS IN AN ACCIDENT HITTING A TREE, TWO CARS AND ROLLING OVER AND NO AIRBAGS INFLATED.

IN OCTOBER 2016 TOOK MY CAR IN FOR OIL CHANGE AND THE DEALERSHIP ADVISED ME OF A RECALL OF CLOCK SPRING. I HAVE HAD MY CAR IN 4 TIMES FOR FAULTY CLOCK SPRINGS. MY AIRBAG LIGHTS AND HORN GO OFF AT RANDOM TIMES SOMETIMES MY HORN NEVER WORKS AND MY AIR BAG LIGHT GOES CRAZY WITH THE HORN...LIKE THE CAR IS POSSESSED.

1. HIT A BUMP GOING 55MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE. HAD TO HIT THE BRAKES AND SLOW DOWN IMMEDIATE TO 25 MPH. SUPER DANGEROUS ON THE FREEWAY. THANKFULLY THIS WAS A CITY FREEWAY THAT HAD A SPEED LIMIT OF 55MPH. I DON'T KNOW WHAT WOULD'VE HAPPENED IF I WAS GOING FASTER, SAY ON AN INTERSTATE WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 80MPH. 2. WHENEVER I FILL UP THE GAS ALWAYS OVERFLOW. SO EACH TIME NOW I HAVE TO SQUEEZE THE PUMP GENTLY AND HOLD IT FOR THE ENTIRE FILL UP. 3. THE REAR CALIPER STICKS SOMETIMES.

DEATH WOBBLE********************************* (MAIN CONCERN) I HAVE ALMOST DIED A 1000XS DUE TO THIS DEATH WOBBLE. I WENT THROUGH HELL WITH THE PREVIOUS DEALER DEALERSHIP . IT HAS BEEN MANY YEARS BRINGING THE JEEP IN TO GARAGES AND NO ONE CAN FIGURE IT OUT. I HAD TO DELIVER A PART 77 MILES TO AND BACK AND HAD TO STOP OVER A MILLION TIMES WITH MYHEART POUNDING. I AM SICK OF WORRYING ABOUT DYING. THIS IS A SERIOUS SERIOUS ISSUE GOD FORBID PEOPLE THAT HAVE CHILDREN IN CAR SEATS. THIS HAS HAPPENED ONTHE FREEWAY AND LOCAL ROADS. VERY CLOSE DEADLY SITUATIONS. I AM TIRED OF NOONE BELIEVING THIS! THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH JEEP AND NOONE HEARS IT! HOW ARE THEY NOT LEGALLY RESPONSIBLE ???THIS IS THE WORST-FEELING IN THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!MANY GARAGES AND NO ONE SAYS ANYTHING IS WRONG. THERE IS SERIOUS ISSUES AND I AM GOING TO DIE! PLEASE HELP! PLEASE! THERE HAS ALWAYS BEEN PROBLEMS WITH THIS OVERHEATING AND ELECTRICAL...RADIO HASN'T WORKED IN MONTHS ONCE IN A WHILE IT COMES ON INTERMEDIATELY...SEATBELT LIGHTS ON DASHBOARD AND HAVE BEEN TOLD THIS HAS A ELECTRICAL PROBLEM FROM MANY GARAGES AND THEY ALSO CAN NOT FIND WHERE OR WHY....THIS IS THE WORST VEHICLE! THE DEATH WOBBLE IS THE MAIN CONCERN BECAUSE IT WILL KILL ME AND ANYBODY ELSE THAT IS HAVING THIS ISSUE. ITS JUST HORRIBLE. THIS VEHICLE TOOK ME OVER A YEAR TO GET INSPECTED BECAUSE OF THIS ELECTRICAL/COMPUTER ISSUE!

AFTER MY VEHICLE SITTING OUTSIDE OF MY JOB FOR 8 HOURS RUNNING WITHOUT MY KNOWLEDGE I THEN COME OUT TO A DEAD JEEP!, I WAS TOLD I NEEDED A NEW TIPM WHY WASN'T THIS RECALLED AND WHY IS THE DEALERSHIP MAKING ME RESPONSIBLE FOR SOMETHING I HAD MY JEEP 1 MONTH! SAD TO SAY JEEP IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS IT IS VERY DANGEROUS THAT MY VEHICLE CAN STAY ON AND CUT OFF WHEN EVER IT WANTS TOO!

OPENED PASSENGER DOOR. FRONT AND REAR WIPERS TURNED ON BY THEMSELVES ON HIGH. 30 SECONDS LATER HORN WENT ON CONSTANT BLAST. STARTED VEHICLE, WIPER AND HORN STILL ON. PULLED KEYS FROM IGNITION, BUT VEHICLE STAYED RUNNING. POPPED CLUTCH TO SHUT OFF. PULLED BATTERY CABLE. EVERYTHING RESET. LATER IN DAY, TRIED TO START, WIPERS TURNED ON BY THEMSELVES AGAIN, HAZZARD LIGHTS STARTED FLASHING - BUT JEEP WOULD NOT START. POWER LOCKS AND WINDOWS WOULD NOT WORK. RADIO DID WORK ALONG WITH HEADLIGHTS. STARTER WOULD NOT CLICK OR ENGAGE, IT WAS JUST DEAD. TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. TIPM REPLACED TWICE PREVIOUSLY 5 MONTHS AND 9 MONTHS EARLIER. NOW AT DEALERSHIP, BATTERY REHOOKED UP, EVERYTHING IS FINE.

MY AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION HAS VIBRATING ISSUES WHEN I ACCELERATE. TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID IT NEEDS A NEW TRANSMISSION. $4300.00 TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION. ALL HIGHWAY MILES AND NO OFF ROADING AT ALL. 118,000 MILES ON THE JEEP.

I STARTED SMELLING GAS AROUND MY JEEP . I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER . THEY DID THE CHEK VALVE RECALL . GAS LEAK STILL PRESISTED . SO I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER . THEY TOLD ME THAT THE WAY THE TANK IS DESIGNED THAT IT WERES THE TANK THIN ON TOP AND STARTS TO LEAK . IT ALSO STARTED TO LEAK AROUND THE FUEL PUMP AREA THEY SAID DUE TO DIRT . THIS WAS A 9 HUNDRED 5 DOLLAR FIX THAT I FEAL IS NOT MY FAULT THE JEEP IS GARAGE KEPT AND ONLY HAS 82000 MILES ON IT . THATS CRAZY TO HAVE TO REPLACE A TANK WITH THAT MANY MILES .

RE: S33 / NHTSA 16V - 290 AND S43 I HAVE ATTENDED THE APPOINTMENT WITH THE DEALER AND THEY RETAINED THE JEEP FOR 4 DAYS REGARDING A RECALL. AFTER 4 DAYS I PICKED UP THE JEEP, BUT, THE CAME WITH THE EXCUSE THAT THEY WERE WAITING FOR THE PART IN QUESTION. I CAME UPSET, BECAUSE HOW THEY COORDINATED AN APPOINTMENT WITHOUT HAVING THE AIRBAG CLOCKSPRING. AFTER THAT I HAVE CALLED TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES FOLLOWING UP FOR THE INSTALLATION OR REPLACEMENT OF SUCH PART. THE RECALL NOTICE ALSO DESCRIBED THAT THE VEHICLE HAD AN OPEN RECALL (S43). THIS WAS ALSO A SURPRISE BECAUSE I HAVE BEEN VERY DILIGENT DEALING WITH SAFETY ISSUES. THE DEALER IN PUERTO RICO IS CABRERA HRMNOS IN ARECIBO , PUERTO RICO. I WILL APPRECIATE YOUR SUPPORT TO SOLVE THIS SAFETY SITUATION. REGARDS, PD: I DON'T HAVE ANY PROBLEM WITH MY PERSONAL INFORMATION. *TR

EVERY TIME I FUEL UP THE VEHICLE GASOLINE SPRAYS OUT OF THE RECEPTACLE ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND SOMETIMES MYSELF. HAPPENS AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS USING MULTIPLE TYPES OF NOZZLES.
