I HAVE A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER THAT IS SHOOTING GASOLINE OUT OF IT AFTER IT IS FILLED UP WITH GAS. BASICALLY, AFTER THE FUELING IS COMPLETE AND THE PUMP CLICKS OFF, GASOLINE SHOOTS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK AND ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR, THE GROUND, AND THE PUMP. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL THIS DEFECT CAUSES A FIRE AT A STATION OR GETS SOMEBODY KILLED. JEEP IS REFUSING TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM. THERE ARE QUITE A FEW JEEP OWNERS WHO ARE REPORTING THIS SAME PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL SPILLING AT EVERY FILL UP, FROM READING ON THE INTERNET IT SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEP WRANGLERS. IT HAPPENS AT EVERY FUEL STATION AND DOESN'T MATTER IF THE NOZZLE IS HALF IN OR TOTALLY IN. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 UNLIMITED JEEP WRANGLER AND A COUPLES YEARS AGO, WHILE MY CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, THE GAS TANK STARTED OVERFLOWING, THE PUMP DID NOT STOP AND GAS WOULD GET ALL OVER THE CAR, MY CLOTHING, ETC. THE DEALERSHIP THEN REPLACED THE ENTIRE GAS TANK. RECENTLY THIS PROBLEM BEGAN AGAIN AND I HAD TO CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER DIRECTLY AND THEN THE DEALERSHIP TO GET THIS FIXED. I ENDED UP PAYING APPROXIMATELY $222 TO GET A NEW GAS TANK AGAIN. WHEN I WENT FILL UP THE CAR AFTER PICKING IT UP FROM BEING "SUPPOSEDLY" FIXED I REALIZED THAT IT WAS NOT FIXED AND GAS WAS ALL OVER MY CAR. IT SEEMS AS IF THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM AND REPLACING THE GAS TANK IS A SHORT TERM FIX OR NO FIX AT ALL. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I HAVE TO BRING MY WRANGLER BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN. *TR

2006 JEEP WRANGLER X I RECENTLY PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE USED WITH 58,000 MILES. I DISCOVERED A VERY DANGEROUS CONDITION WHEN FILLING UP WITH GAS. THE GAS FLOW TO THE TANK DOES NOT PROPERLY TURN OFF WHEN THE TANK BECOMES FULL. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED TO ME I WAS SPRAYED WITH GASOLINE ON MY CHEST ... NEARLY MISSING MY FACE. I THOUGHT THIS WAS A FLUKE BUT IT HAPPENED AGAIN THE NEXT TIME I FILLED UP. I'VE LEARNED TO ONLY FILL UP THE TANK HALF WAY. I DID AN INTERNET SEARCH AND FOUND THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH NEWER JEEP WRANGLERS. IT IS ALSO AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE AS WELL BECAUSE GASOLINE JUST TRAVELS DOWN THE JEEP AND INTO THE GROUND. I HAVE LEARNED THROUGH JEEP INTERNET FORUMS THAT THIS IS A VERY COMMON ISSUE WITH JEEP WRANGLERS. THIS ISSUE MUST BE ADDRESSED BY CHRYSLER THROUGH A VEHICLE RECALL. THERE WILL DEFINITELY BE DEATHS/INJURIES FROM THIS IF IT IS NOT PROPERLY ADDRESSED BY CHRYSLER. *TR
Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2006 Dodge Viper and Jeep Wrangler and Liberty vehicles manufactured July 1, 2005, to July 31, 2006. In the affected vehicles, the springs within the clutch pedal position switch that prevents the vehicle from starting unless the clutch pedal is pushed down may break. As a result, the vehicle may not be started when the clutch pedal is pushed down or the engine may crank and start without the clutch pedal being pushed down causing the vehicle to unexpectedly lurch.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: If the vehicle unexpectedly moves there is an increased risk of a crash.
Remedy: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will replace the clutch ignition interlock switch, free of charge. The recall began on August 31, 2015. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is R13.

Consequence & remedy
Consequence: UNINTENTIONAL VEHICLE MOVEMENT, INCREASED STOPPING DISTANCE, AND ENGINE STALLING COULD OCCUR WHICH COULD RESULT IN A CRASH.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL REPLACE THE CLUTCH MASTER CYLINDER LINKAGE ROD FREE OF CHARGE. THE RECALL BEGAN ON AUGUST 7, 2006. OWNERS MAY CONTACT DAIMLERCHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403.
ON CERTAIN PICKUP TRUCKS, SPORT UTILITY AND PASSENGER VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH 42RLE AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSIONS, THE CUP PLUG THAT RETAINS THE PARK PAWL ANCHOR SHAFT MAY BE IMPROPERLY INSTALLED. IF THE SHAFT MOVES OUT OF POSITION, THE VEHICLE MAY NOT BE ABLE TO ACHIEVE 'PARK' POSITION.
Consequence & remedy
Consequence: IF THIS OCCURS AND THE PARKING BRAKE IS NOT APPLIED, THE VEHICLE MAY ROLL AWAY AND CAUSE A CRASH WITHOUT WARNING.
Remedy: DEALERS WILL INSPECT THE TRANSMISSIONS AND INSTALL A BRACKET TO ENSURE THE PARK PAWL ANCHOR SHAFT IS RETAINED IN THE PROPER POSITION. THE RECALL BEGAN ON NOVEMBER 28, 2005. OWNERS MAY CONTACT DAIMLERCHRYSLER AT 1-800-853-1403.
