Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problems of the 1997 Jeep Wrangler

Fuel guache govea inaccurate reading and drops to empty when the tank is half full. Contacted the local Jeep dealer twice on having this part replaced and each time they tell me they will call me back but they have not.

The fuel tank skid plate is rotted out and the tank is in danger of falling.

My fuel gauge shows 1/4 tank when empty- there was a safety recall in '98 (NHTSA # 97v194003 & TSB # 755) for this same problem for my year vehicle. When I contacted the dealer and also the manufacturer, I was told that this recall did not apply to my vehicle- if it is a safety problem for other vehicles of the same make/model/year, and I have the problem (obviously), theni don't understand why my vehicle was not included in the recall- thank you for allowing me to report this.

I have talked to several dealerships and I have been told my Jeep was not made on the right date under the recall. I have had a problem with the gage/sending unit for the last (almost) three years. I do not understand why my Jeep is not covered when so many more are with the same problem. My gage sometimes does not show empty when it is and sometimes showes empty 100 miles into the full tank. I have talked to seval other Jeep owners and some of them have experienced the same problem. Yet, the dealerships say even though some Jeeps are covered under the recall others are not. Crazy!.

4-wheel drive inoperable. In addition, driver's seat belt will not retract/gas gauge failed, shows tank 1/4-1/2 full when it is actually out of gas/passenger's side door handle very tight and squeaky/abs brakes squeal loudly/automatic transmission has trouble shifting and sticks prior to releasing to next gear, and seat belt warning system buzzer sounds at times uneven and loud with a squeaking noise.

Gas gauge failure; gas gauge shows empty when there is as much as 6 gallons of fuel left in the tank.
