What 1991 Jeep Wrangler owners say
Most recent owner complaints, unedited.
Tl* the contact owns a 1991 jeep wrangler. While refueling the vehicle, fuel leaked from the bottom of the vehicle. The failure recurred several times. The fuel tank was replaced; however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 70,000.
Jeep wrangler yj overfills the tank when pumping gas and causes fuel to spill out of the hole and causes hazardous conditions.
Gas tank does not register proper amount.
I'm the original owner of a stock 1991 jeep wrangler with 2.5 liter engine at 106,000 miles. The fuel rail has failed and is leaking at factory installed plugged end of the rail at the opposite end from the fuel pressure regular. The leak is between the plug and the rail. This should have been a brazed sealed end or a threaded plug instead of a compression fitting of a plug. The leak produces a spray of gasoline near the exhaust manifold which could lead to a fire. Based on my research by contacting 3 dealerships in the washington, dc area, jeep has stopped producing this part and there are no stock aftermarkets fuel rails available. I'm looking into junkyard parts but question whether if they could be defected, too. Also, at jeepforum.com there was also failure on a 1994 jeep wrangler. Please review this subject and see if there's a justification for recall.
Dt: 1991 jeep wrangler. The consumer stated that gas poured out of the plastic tank. It cracked on the right lower corner. The vehicle was not taken to the dealership. The consumer did repairs by himself himself. But when he put more gas in the vehicle it began to leak again. The manufacturer has not been notified.
Fuel tank gasket failure as described in recall #94v106000 yet dealer says it's not recalled on my particular vehicle.
Gasket around gas tank is cracked and fuel leaks out when making a right turn. Dealer contacted. *ak
Recall # 94v106000 fuel: fuel pump; after replacing the fuel tank unit sending gasket, fuel continues to pour out of the fuel tank.
My fuel tank is the problem. It first started leaking in 1991 when I first got my jeep. It was repaired. Then it started leaking again in 1996, and I took in, it and the recall covered that repair. Then again in 1998, the tank leaked again. Same problem each time. They said it was the fuel send unit, but each time they had to replace the gas tank completely. The only time the manufacturer paid for it was when I took it in under the recall. The other times, I paid for it. Because it is the gas tank, it could easily lead to fatalities. I feel if the part for this repair is never going to be right, then they should continue to replace it as if the recall was still in effect. This is dangerous! After I blew up at the dealer the last time (pitre in phoenix), they tampered with my gas gauge and now it doesn't read accurately. They need to be put on notice that this is not acceptable to the general public -- the dealership's behavior as well as the manufacturer refusing to pay for the part. Recall 94v‑106.
