2008 JEEP WRANGLER 4-DR 4X4 Complaints

DRIVING VEHICLE OVER 60MPH RESULTED IN MULTIPLE EPISODES OF THE DEATH WOBBLE WITHIN A 3 WEEK PERIOD OF TIME. VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED AT USED CAR DEALERSHIP AND STATE INSPECTION WAS PERFORMED ON THE DAY OF PURCHASE. WITHIN 24 HOURS OF HAVING THE VEHICLE, I EXPERIENCED THE FIRST ENCOUNTER. I WAS DRIVING DOWN A HILL AT APPROXIMATELY 60MPH AND THE STEERING FELT SHAKEY AND THE WHEEL BEGAN TO WOBBLE. IT SUBSIDED AS I SLOWED DOWN. THE NEXT DAY, THIS OCCURED ON A MAJOR INTERSTATE AT 65MPH AND CAR WAS TOWED TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP. I WAS INFORMED THE BALL JOINTS SHOULD NEVER HAVE PASSED INSPECTION ALONG WITH THE FUEL SYSTEM. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALER AND HE CLAIMED TO HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM. WITHIN 3 DAYS OF GETTING THE JEEP BACK, ONCE AGAIN THE WOBBLE OCCURRED AT A SPEED OF 65MPH AND I ALMOST LOST CONTROL OF VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE SHOULD NOT BE ON THE ROAD. THE DEALER RETURNED A PORTION OF MY PURCHASE PRICE AND I RETURNED THE JEEP. THE JEEP IS NOW BACK ON THE LOT FOR SALE.

AIR BAG LIGHT GOES ON AND OFF WHILE DRIVING. MY ISSUE SEEMS CONSISTENT WITH RECALLS DUE TO CLOCK SPRING FAILURE IN RIGHT HAND MODEL JEEPS. CALL TO CHRYSLER CONFIRMED AS SUCH, BUT THEY WON'T COMMIT TO FIX UNTIL RECALL INVESTIGATION UNDERWAY IS CONCLUDED.

PURCHASED THE CAR BRAND NEW IN 2008. APPROXIMATELY TWO YEARS LATER , I BEGAN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH THE CAR STARTING. PUT THE KEY IN THE IGNITION, TURN IT AND YOU HEAR A CLICK. INITIALLY, IT SEEMED TO OCCUR SPORADICALLY NORMALLY AFTER IT RAINED . NOW, THE PROBLEM OCCURS MORE FREQUENTLY (DAILY) ABSENT ANY RAIN. I'VE REPLACED THE BATTERY, ALTERNATOR AND STARTER TO NO AVAIL. I ALSO TOOK THE CAR TO A JEEP DEALER TO NO AVAIL .

AIR BAG LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF RANDOMLY. A RECALL WAS ISSUED BUT NOT FOR THIS VIN.

SINCE I BOUT THE JEEP IN NOV. 2015. EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE FUEL TANK, THE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF VALVE WILL NOT ENGAGE MAKING GAS SPILL OUT OF THE TANK.

AIR BAG DASH LIGHT WOULD COME ON WHILE DRIVING STRAIGHT BUT WOULD GO OFF WHILE TURNING A CORNER. DEALER DIAGNOSED PROBLEM AS A "CLOCK SPRING" AND CHARGED ME $384.20 (P&L) TO REPLACE IT ON 3/12/15

AIR BAG LIGHT IS ON. HORN AND CRUISE ALSO QUIT WORKING WHEN THIS OCCURRED. REAR ENDED A LADY LAST FALL AND AIRBAG FAILED TO DEPLOY, NOT SURE IT SHOULD HAVE BUT STILL DIDN'T. CAN NOT EVER FILL THE GAS TANK FULL DUE TO FUEL SPILLING OUT OF THE FILL TUBE ONTO THE GROUND, CAN GET SLIGHTLY MORE THAT 3/4 FULL.

THIS IS THE SAME ISSUE FOR THE RIGHT HAND DRIVE MODELS THAT YOU ALREADY MADE JEEP EXTEND THE WARRANTY ON. THE CLOCK SPRING IS FAULTY AND REQUIRES REPLACEMENTS OVER THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE. JUST MAKE THE SAME WARRANTY AVAILABLE FOR THE LEFT HAND DRIVE MODELS. WE ARE NOT IN ENGLAND, WE DRIVE FROM THE LEFT SIDE.......

THE CLOCK SPRING FAILED AND NOW THE AIRBAG, HORN, AND CRUISE CONTROL DOES NOT WORK. IT STARTED WITH A CLICKING NOISE IN THE STEERING COLUMN WHEN TURNING, THEN AFTER A POPPING NOISE EVERYTHING MENTIONED STOPPED WORKING. AFTER RESEARCH THERE ARE A LOT OF PEOPLE WITH THE SAME EXACT ISSUE BUT NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED.

DURING FUELING MY VEHICLE EXPELS FUEL FROM THE FILL RECEPTACLE AT THE TIME THE NOZZLE CLICKS OFF. MY VEHICLE BUILD DATE IS APRIL OF 2008 AND IS SUBSEQUENTLY NOT COVERED BY TSB 14-001-011 WHICH ADDRESSES THIS SAME ISSUES IN JEEPS BUILT FROM MARCH OF 2007 TO MARCH OF 2008.
