2005 Jeep Wrangler

JEEP SHAKES VIOLENTLY WHEN A BUMP IS HIT OR ROAD IS UNEVEN. THE PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT 2 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASING THE USED VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM DID NOT SHOW ITSELF DURING THE TEST DRIVE BUT AFTER INVESTIGATING THROUGH THE INTERNET THEIR ARE SEVERAL JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS WITH THE "DEATHWOBBLE" PROBLEM. I CLICKED ON YOUR LINK PROVIDED BY A LOCAL TELEVISION NEWS STATION WSOC CHANNEL 9 IN CHARLOTTE, NC AFTER THEY COVERED A STORY ABOUT ANOTHER CHRYSLER VEHICLE. I IMPLORE YOU TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT AND ASK CHRYSLER TO RECALL OR REPAIR, AT THEIR EXPENSE, MY VEHICLE AND OTHER VEHICLES AFFECTED BY THIS DEFECT. AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WAS PURCHASED FROM THE DEALERSHIP, CROSSROADS FORD P&A CODE 00994, AND WE WERE TOLD AT THE TIME OF PURCHASE CHRYSLER'S WARRANTY WAS STILL VALID. AFTER TAKING IT BACK TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND EVEN TAKING IT TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP NO ONE WILL ACCEPT ACCOUNTABILITY. WE HAVE NO OTHER CHOICE BUT TO DRIVE IT AND FEAR FOR THE LIFE OF OUR SON. *TR

I HAVE HAD A PROBLEM WITH MY SIX SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSION IN MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER SINCE JANUARY, 2006. WHILE MY VEHICLE WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY I HAD THE DEALERSHIP TAKE A LOOK AT IT THEY TOLD ME THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. SINCE THEN I HAVE HAD THREE TRANSMISSIONS PUT IN MY JEEP AT MY COST AND IT STILL POPS OUT OF FIRST GEAR. IT SOUNDS LIKE SOMEBODY RAN INTO ME. THE DEALERSHIP AS I KNOW NOW WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND DID NOT WANT TO FIX IT. MY JEEP IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND THANKS ALOT. *TR

I WAS DRIVING ON TEXAS F.M. 722 IN THE AFTERNOON. IT HAD STARTED TO HAIL AND I HAD SLOWED TO APPX. 45 MPH WHEN I LOST ALL STEERING. MY JEEP SKIDDED SIDEWAYS THEN WENT INTO THE BAR DITCH AND THROUGH A FENCE, NARROWLY MISSING A POWER POLE. FURTHER EVALUATION BY A MECHANIC SHOWED THAT THE STEERING GEAR BOX SHAFT HAD BEEN CRACKED, "FOR A LONG TIME", BASED ON THE RUST PRESENT HALF WAY THROUGH THE SHAFT. THE SHAFT THEN SNAPPED AS I WAS SLOWING DOWN CAUSING COMPLETE STEERING FAILURE. *TR

MULTIPLE DEFECTIVE 6 SPEED MANUAL TRANSMISSIONS. I HAVE HAD THREE TRANSMISSIONS INSTALLED IN MY JEEP, AND ALL HAVE THE SAME PROBLEMS, HARD TO PULL OUT OF FIRST, AND GRINDING DURING UP SHIFTS FROM FIRST TO SECOND AND SECOND TO THIRD. I HAVE FOUND MULTIPLE OTHER OWNERS OF THE SAME VEHICLE ON THE INTERNET THAT HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM, BUT CHRYSLER HAS NOT COME UP WITH FIX FOR THE PROBLEM. THE ISSUE CAN BE HAZARDOUS, IF YOU ARE TRYING TO ACCELERATE IN TRAFFIC, YOU CAN'T BECAUSE THE TRANSMISSION WON'T GO INTO GEAR. *TR

I CANNOT FILL MY GAS TANK FULL WITHOUT GAS COMING OUT SPILLING ON THE VEHICLE AND ON ME. I OWN A 2005 JEEP WRANGLER. IT ONLY HAS 25,258 MILES ON IT. WHEN I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE I DID NOT PURCHASE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY. I SPOKE TO CHRYSLER MOTORS CORP CUSTOMER CENTER (1-800-992-1997) (REF. #18329606) ON FEBRUARY 10, 2009 ABOUT THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I AM REQUESTING THAT CHRYSLER REPAIRS THE GAS TANK FOR ME BECAUSE LIVES ARE AT DANGER WHEN THE VEHICLE IS FILLED UP WITH GAS AND GAS COMES OUT OF THE TANK. GAS IS GETTING ON THE VEHICLE, MY HANDS AND THE GROUND AT THE PUMP. ARMBRUSTER MOTOR CO. (1-800-766-0980) INFORMED ME ON FEBRUARY 6, 2009, THE ONLY WAY TO CORRECT THIS ISSUE WAS TO PURCHASE A NEW GAS TANK. THE COST OF A NEW GAS TANK WOULD BE AROUND $500.00. CHRYSLER TOLD ME THAT THEY WILL NOT PAY FOR A NEW GAS TANK BUT IF I PAY FOR THE NEW GAS TANK THEY WOULD COVER THE NEW TANK FOR 12 MONTHS OR 12,000 MILES. I BELIEVE CHRYSLER SHOULD PAY FOR THIS REPAIR BECAUSE THEY DESIGNED THE FAULTY GAS TANK THAT WAS ORIGINALLY PLACED ON THE VEHICLE. THIS IS AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION WHEN I FILL MY VEHICLE WITH GAS. IT IS NOT LIKE THE RADIO DOESN'T WORK, SPILLED GAS IS A FIRE HAZARD. *TR THANK YOU, JENNIFER WILLMAN

2005 JEEP WRANGLER (TJ IN CANADA). CHECK GAUGES LIGHT CAME ON WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. DROVE TO GET OFF AT EXIT. CAR STALLED AND WOULD NOT RESTART. TOWED TO DEALERSHIP. GEARS ON OIL PUMP WERE STRIPPED AND NO OIL GOT TO ENGINE -AS A RESULT ENGINE SEIZED. APPARENTLY THERE WAS A SERVICE BULLETIN BUT IT SEEMS THAT THE SERIAL # ON MY OIL PUMP IS NOT WITHIN THE RANGE OF THE BULLETIN. AT 138,000 KM I HAVE TO REPLACE AN ENGINE (OUTSIDE OF WARRANTY). *TR
