Parking break self releases. According to chrysler the recall was done more than 10 years ago and is therefore no longer covered. How can chrysler not cover this dangerous problem. The vehicle will unexpectedly begin rolling down a slope with no warning. The break will hold for a few minutes or even longer and then release.. If this replacement part is of this faulty a design why can it not be not be replaced with a more dependable one. Is there a replacement "kit" for the recall? Furthermore I was unaware of the recall for the fuel pump/sensor gasket at top of fuel tank and the catalytic converter recall. I replaced that gasket twice without the dealer advising me of the recall. As I prepared my boat for launching the break released and began to roll backwards into the lake, nearly running me over. A narrow escape.

Every time I fill up my 94 yj, gas spills out the back of it. The pump kicks off but as it kicks off it spills and I have to clean the gas running down the back of the jeep. It seems to me there's something wrong with the back pressure that kicks off the pump. I'm guessing the fuel completely fills up the tube and only when the gas hits the nozzle does it shut off. It is very difficult to fill my tank up and is also very unsafe to do so, as gas spilling out the back is a fire hazard. It seems I'm not the only jeep owner dealing with this problem. (http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f176/have-fuel-spill-problems-like-many-us-submit-complaint-force-recall-974337/) so here I am filing my complaint, I hope something will be done. Because I'm tired of being soaked in gas every time I try to fill my tank.
