WHILE DRIVING ON PAVED ROADS AT SPEEDS OF 35 MPH OR LESS IN A LOCAL PARK, A LOUD CHIME BEGAN TO SOUND WITH NO CORRESPONDING INDICATOR LIGHT. I PULLED OVER AND SHUT THE ENGINE OFF, WAITED A FEW SECONDS, RESTARTED THE ENGINE, THE CHIME WAS NOT SOUNDING, SO I DROVE HOME. ONCE ON THE HIGHWAY, THE TORQUE CONVERTER WOULD NOT LOCK UP PROPERLY AND CONTINUED TO SLIP FOR SEVERAL MILES UNTIL NORMAL OPERATION RESUMED. AFTER CHECKING EVERYTHING ONCE HOME, IT APPEARS THAT THE CHIME WAS INDICATING THE TRANSMISSION WAS OVERHEATING, EXPLAINING THE MALFUNCTION OF THE TORQUE CONVERTER. I HAVE READ OF OTHERS HAVING SIMILAR EXPERIENCES. I NEED TO STRESS THAT THIS OVER HEATING OCCURRED UNDER NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS. *TR UPDATED 05/24/10*JB

SIXTH OCCURRENCE OF PROBLEM: WHEN IN FIRST GEAR, THE GEAR BANGS AND LOCKS-UP. THIS NORMALLY OCCURS WHEN JUST STARTING ACROSS AN INTERSECTION AFTER BEING STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS, AS ANOTHER VEHICLE COULD REAR-END ME OR SIDE HIT ME IF I WERE MAKING A LEFT TURN ACROSS AN INTERSECTION. MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP CANNOT DUPLICATE THIS PROBLEM WHEN IN FOR SERVICE. I HAVE RESEARCHED OTHER JEEP WRANGLER VEHICLE OWNERS WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM REPORTED, AND THE ONLY FIX WAS A COMPLETE TRANSMISSION REPLACEMENT.

WHEN TRYING TO DO A COMPLETE FILL-UP OF FUEL, THE PUMP WILL SHUT OFF AS IT SHOULD, AND THEN A MODERATE AMOUNT OF FUEL WILL "BURP" OUT OF THE OPENING. IT SPILLS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ON TO THE GROUND. UNSAFE, UNPLEASANT, AND ENVIRONMENTALLY IRRESPONSIBLE. THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM. THE JEEP HAD NO ISSUES FOR OVER TWO YEARS, SINCE FALL OF 2009 IT HAS BEEN OCCURRING, WILL DO IT EVERYTIME I DO A FULL FILL-UP, NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION I USE. I NO LONGER DO FULL FILL-UPS AS A RESULT, WHICH MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO PROPERLY TRACK FUEL ECONOMY. *TR
