What owners say
There a factory, manufactur problem with the jeep. Whenever I put gas on the vehicle, it spits out the gas if I pour too fast. I was checking online and it states that chrysler was replacing gas tanks free of charge if they had this issue. I contacted jeep and they stated they couldn't change it becuase it didn't appear in the VIN number. It is also a safety concern because the check engine is advising me that there is a leak in the gas tank.
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.
This problem started in mid auust 2016 and is still going on ....wipers going off n on by themselves, horn blaring, lights blinking on n off, signm=al lights not working at times, jeep wont move forward at times, steering gets hard to manage, check engine light goes of and on all the time..... This happens at anytime or anywhere....can go on for about 2-3 minutes...people start staring as if I am crazy blowing the horn at them and my lights flashing through out. This should definitely be a recalled issue based on the 2007 jeep wrangler having the same issue...for all I know the 2008 jeeps were probably intalled parts from the line from the 2007 jeep wranglers which had problems with the ticm......I am trying to get estimates right now but the tcim part alone costs $425 or mre plus labor and additional for programming......this is ridiculous!!!!! Sometimes it happens when stopped at the light with vehicle on and sometimes when driving..hard to manuever car when driving due to difficult steering
My airbag sensor is continuously coming on and off. I noticed that there is a recall on right hand drive vehicles but I suspect there is something to this. As well...my electrical system is always on the fritz. Some days the radio works...some days it doesn't. My engine light is constantly on and no one finds anything wrong with the engine...
Engine light came on. Reads code p0585 speed control switch 1/2 correlation. Speed control does not work. Bad clock spring...
Esp/bas check engine light on, took it to the dealership, they said it was a bad clock spring, they fixed it since it was just under the 50k mile warranty, three weeks later I was over the 50k warranty and the light came on again, took it back and it was the clock spring again dealership fixed it again then a bit over a year later it went again, I don't go off roading or anything crazy now I have to drop 600 bucks (parts+labor) to fix it again in order to make sure the airbag goes off in the event of an accident crazy this is not a recall yet, a common jeep problem that effects airbags and suspension.
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.?
