I OWN A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER THAT WAS MANUFACTURED IN FEBRUARY OF 2007. EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS TANK THE FUEL OVERFLOWS AND SPILLS OUT OF THE NOZZLE, CREATING A HAZARDOUS PUDDLE OF FLAMMABLE GASOLINE ON THE FENDER, THE TIRE, THE GROUND, AND THE PERSON FUELING IT(ME). *TR

2007 JEEP WRANGLER JK SAHARA UNLIMITED, ISSUE STARTED AROUND 40,000 MILES. CURRENT MILEAGE IS 63,000 MILES. FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLED AT THE PUMP. NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION I USE, NO MATTER WHAT PUMP I USE, THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS ON FILL UP. THE HANDLE FOR THE PUMP HAS CLICKED OFF AND STOPPED FUELING, BUT GAS SPEWS OUT FROM THE GAS FILL ON MY JEEP AND GROUND AND A COUPLE TIMES EVEN ONTO MY CLOTHING. I HAVE HAD TO GO BACK HOME AND CHANGE CLOTHES BECAUSE SO MUCH GAS SPEWED ONTO MY CLOTHING. THIS IS THE SECOND TIME I HAVE FILED FOR THIS ISSUE. CHRYSLER ISSUED A TSB 14-001-11 ON FEBRUARY 11, 2011 FOR THIS BUT IS ONLY BUILD DATES OF MARCH 07- 08. MY BUILD DATE IS IN 2006. GRANTED, I HAVE NOT INCURRED ANY DAMAGE, THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD TO MYSELF AND SOME GAS STATIONS HAVE EVEN HAD TO SHUT DOWN TO CLEAN UP THE SPILL. THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE FOR NUMEROUS JEEPS AND NEEDS TO INCLUDE MANY DIFFERENT BUILD DATES OUTSIDE OF THE RECENTLY ISSUED TSB. THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME. *TR

2007 JEEP WRANGLE SAHARA FOUR DOOR FOUR WHEEL DRIVE SIX SPEED STANDARD . WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE AT 60MPH WHILE HITTING A MINOR BUMP IN ROADWAY SENDS VEHICLE INTO A VIGOROUS SHAKING. THIS IS NOT A MINOR SHAKING IT SENDS VEHICLE INTO A VERY RAPID SIDE TO SIDE PULLING MOTIONS.

MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER X HAS EXPERIENCED WHAT SOME ARE CALLING "DEATH WOBBLE". A VIOLENT UNCONTROLLABLE SHAKING OF THE FRONT WHEELS WHILE TRAVELING AT SPEEDS ABOVE 45MPH. WHEN THE WHEELS ENCOUNTER A BUMP, EVEN THE SLIGHTEST, IN THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE SHAKES VIOLENTLY AND WILL NOT STOP SHAKING UNTIL I COME TO A COMPLETE STOP. THIS IS EXCEEDINGLY DANGEROUS ON THE INTERSTATE AND COULD CAUSE SERIOUS COLLISIONS. THIS OCCURRED OVER 40 TIMES BEFORE I COULD SOLVE THE ISSUE. AFTER INSTALLING AN AFTERMARKET HEAVY DUTY FRONT TRACK BAR, THE WOBBLE CEASED TO EXIST. MY EVALUATION: THE FRONT TRACK BAR THAT COMES STANDARD EQUIPPED ON THE JK-CHASSIS WRANGLER IS NOT SUITABLE FOR SPEEDS IN EXCESS OF 45MPH AND SHOULD BE RECALLED AND REPLACED WITH A STRONGER ONE BEFORE SERIOUS DAMAGE CAN OCCUR TO OWNERS, THEIR VEHICLES AND PASSENGERS, AND OTHER DRIVERS ON THE ROAD. *TR

THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM THAT I FACE WHEN I FILL THE VEHICLE UP AT ANY GAS STATION. WHILE FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH GAS, THE AUTO STOP CLICKS, AND IMMEDIATELY THE TANK STARTS SPILLING GAS. THE GAS SPILLS OUT AND RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND CREATING A PUDDLE. THIS PROBLEM ISN'T ATTRIBUTABLE TO TRYING TO "TOP OFF" THE TANK BECAUSE THE BY THE FIRST TIME THE AUTO STOP CLICKS, THE VEHICLE IS ALREADY POURING OUT GASOLINE. I HAVE SPOKEN TO MANY OTHER OWNERS REGARDING THIS PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE SAID THE SAME THING. I HAVE INVESTIGATED THROUGH NHTSA, AND THEY HAVE AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION INTO THIS MATTER (ACTION NUMBER : PE10032).

1) I PURCHASED A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER X WITH 8,650 MILES ON THE VEHICLE IN 2008, KEPT THE VEHICLE AS IT WAS, AND IT NOW HAS 43,000 MILES. THERE WERE NO EVENTS LEADING UP TO THE FAILURE OTHER THAN STANDARD SAFE DRIVING PRACTICES. 2) THE FAILURE IS COMMONLY REFERRED TO AS "DEATH WOBBLE" AND IS WELL DOCUMENTED ON VARIOUS WEBSITES. THE "DEATH WOBBLE" OCCURS ANYTIME THE VEHICLE REACHES 50 MPH, AND WILL CONTINUE AS THE SPEED RISES OR FALLS. 3) THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN CORRECTED IN MY JEEP YET, IT IS BEING TAKEN IN TO A PRIVATE MECHANIC TO BE FIXED. I HAVE ATTEMPTED TO GAIN ASSISTANCE FROM JEEP (TO INCLUDE WRITING A LETTER TO THE PRESIDENT OF JEEP) WITH AN APPALLING AND INSULTING RESPONSE. *LN
