Filed Oct 24, 2017 · Fuel system · 85,000 miles · IL

For the past 5 months I've had my check engine light on. I read the code and is says "large e vap leak " I've replaced the pcv valve and the e vap charcoal canister and the check engine light is still on. I've brought it to a mechanic and they did a smoke test and everything tested out good. Showing that there were no problems and to start with the gas cap. I've spent over 100.dollars on gas caps and I still have the problem. I have to for emissions by the end of december. I've had every recall known to man on this jeep. I've done research and found out that it could be the gas filler neck itself. How to I go about getting a new one and will it cost me anything? I also have problems when I try and fill the tank. The gas comes flying back out if I try and fill it. Its getting out of hand and the dealership won't give me an answer. I was going to go to.another dealership but I want to know if this will cost me? I have until december 31 to get this problem fixed or my plates will be suspended and I won't be able to get my plate sticker. What should I do?? The check engine light comes on while stationary and while driving. This started in the middle of may.

Engine oil not registered on dip stick when checked. Had to add 3 quarts of oil to get to register to bottom of dip stick. Oil has been changed every 3-6k miles since took ownership in 2007. Engine light does not come on when oil is low. Problem experienced a 2nd time 5/26/2012. Checked oil and no engine oil on dipstick. Oil was changed/filled on 1/19/2012 (have records from mechanic) and only approximately 5k miles drive in that time and again 3 quarts required to even get oil to register on dip stick and again engine oil light never came on in past 5 months since last oil change. Engine appears to be "burning through" excessive amount of oil with no indication of low oil in vehicle at any time.

2007 jeep wrangler unlimited 4x4 - 1. Everytime I fill gas tank, gas overflows out of tank at me and down side of jeep. Serious safety issue. 2. Driving on the highway the other day and 3 different malfunction indicator lights came on in a matter of seconds, jeep powered off. No power steering or brakes, traveling approximately 60 MPH. Very odd, scary and unsafe??? Car is at dealership, no clue why this happened at this time. Dealership needs to take engine apart at an estimated cost of $900. What is chrysler going to do about these issues.?

1. At night on january 17, 2008 at 10:30 in the evening, my family an I were driving approximately 45 MPH down a us highway in our 2007 jeep jk wrangler 4-door. 2. Without warning of any type, all of the jeep's power shut off - headlights, engine, dash lights, everything electrical shut off. The vehicle's power came back on in approximately 2-3 seconds. Upon the electrical power returning on, all of the dashes warning lights flashed on for a few seconds. The dash warning lights for the esp, traction control and mil (malfunction indicator light) remained on until I drove home (about 2 miles). 3. When home, I attempted to restart the car to see if the error warning lights would remain in - the mil was the only light that remained on. I will call the dealership tomorrow for diagnostic troubleshooting. However, this was an extremely frightening experience since it was snowing and I lost power without warning on an ice covered road. I checked the jeep website with my VIN number, and according to the website there are no recalls outstanding for my vehicle.

I started my car and attempted to pull out of the driveway when the engine light turned on and the car began to shake. I stopped the car, kept the engine on and let it sit for a 5 minutes and warm up. I put it in drive again and made it 1 block when the engine light started blinking, the engine began to sputter, and smoke was seen coming out of the muffler and hood of my jeep. I opened the hood only to be consumed with the smell a gas. When the tow truck driver arrived, he explained that I was very lucky as the car engine would have caught on fire if I would have continued to drive one more block. The dealership initially thought it was the fuel igniter, as it was found stuck open. They ended up replacing the wiring for the electrical system that controlled the igniter instead. So far it's running fine.

On two separate occasions I was driving less than 10 MPH and coming to a stop when the engine stalled for no apparent reason. I was aware of this potential hazard due to my research on jk-forum.com where other 2007 jeep wrangler owners have experienced similar problems to mine. I experienced the engine stalling issue around 3700 miles and a second time at approximately 7500 miles. No check engine light comes on, I just shift into neutral and restart the vehicle and continue to drive. However I cannot replicate this stall condition and I'm nervous about it happening at higher speeds.

While driving my 2 month old jeep wrangler 4-door unlimited sahara on the nj turnpike doing 65 MPH the power to the call totally shut off and all engine lights came on. I could not steer or brake. After approx. 5-10 seconds, the power came back on without me doing anything. I took the car to the dealer (mcdonagh in east brunswick, nj) two times and they told me they ran all the tests and that the vehicle is operating as designed. They did not fix the issue nor replace the car. The car is 2 months old with 5,000 miles on it.
