42 Gasoline Fuel System problem of the 2005 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 12/16/2013

I traced a loud screeching noise to the oil pump drive assembly. As the engine warmed up the noise subsided but continues to occur. On line research shows this to be a common problem for the 05-06 Wranglers due to a design change from 04 to 05 model years where a bushing at the top of the cam position sensor/oil pump drive that seizes due to lack of lubrication and causes the drive gear on the oil pump shaft to self destruct taking with it the camshaft drive gear which causes loss of oil pressure. Dodge issued the e05 Mar 2005 campaign-engine oil pump drive gear/cam replacement. Letters were sent to dealers to replace the drive gears and cams damaged by this problem. The notification applies to the 4. 0 l engine built from oct 20, 2004 to Feb 1, 2005. My local Dodge dealer informed me that my Jeep has an oct 9, 2004 build date and is therefore not eligible for the recall even though the pictures I showed him of the damage to the gears in my engine. The dealer suggested I try customer service. They referred me to NHTSA to seek a resolution. So after investing over $12,000 dollars a month ago to purchase what I expected would be a reliable winter vehicle I instead have a vehicle that sits in my driveway because we are afraid to drive it. It can't be trusted on the road and I can't risk using it and facing a $4,000. 00 engine rebuild if it seizes. I need some help.

44 Gasoline Fuel System problem of the 2010 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 11/11/2013

45 Gasoline Fuel System problem of the 2008 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 11/04/2013

Upon filling up the vehicle, fuel rushes out of the inlet and onto the fender guard, body, and bumper and on the ground. This has happened repeatedly at every fill up. After the first three times this happened I caught as much as possible from the spill = 3 pints +. It shoots all over my hands, arm, and leg. Very dangerous and hazardous having gas all over me.

46 Gasoline Fuel System problem of the 2011 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 11/01/2013

When filling with fuel, after the pump finishes putting fuel into the vehicle, fuel surges back out of the fill neck. It appears to be about one half gallon spills out onto the vehicle and ground. It does not matter whether the pump is being run in automatic or manual mode. Nor does it matter at what rate the fuel is being added. When contacted, the dealer said it was not covered for this VIN series.

47 Gasoline Fuel System problem of the 2008 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 09/02/2013

Every time fuel is placed into the vehicle, the fuel filler neck will spit fuel out onto the driver or around the back of the vehicle. This started occurring in September 2013 and has been consistent with every time fuel is put into the vehicle. Once I began researching this I found it is a common problem on all Jeep Wranglers. I also found that Chrysler issued an extended warranty on 2007 and 2008 Jeep Wranglers, up to March 31, 2008. My vehicle was manufactured in April 2008 so I don't qualify for this warranty work. The fix seems to be a fuel neck with a check valve in it. Part cnnnx321ac. My Jeep even though is was manufactured after their warranty date, still has the old part on it that is causing the problems in the first place. God forbid anyone ever gets injured by this. Shame on Chrysler and shame on NHTSA for not taking any action.

57 Gasoline Fuel System problem of the 2005 Jeep Wrangler

Failure Date: 02/27/2012

On February 18th 2012, I purchased a used 2005 Jeep Wrangler rubicon from a Jeep dealership. Every time I've filled up for gas, there is an over spill of about 1/8 of a gallon. This happened on 2/27/12, 2/29/12 , 3/15/12, 3/25/12, and 4/23/12. Even when slowing down towards the end of the fill up, it still spills over, just less severe. I took it into the dealer. They performed a fuel system software upgrade on 4/06/12, but that did not correct the problem. This is a huge nuisance (not to mention safety/fire hazard) and from what little research I've done, does not sound like an isolated problem.

When filling the car with gasoline, the automatic shut off does not occur and fuel blows out of the Jeep and down on the ground and me if I am close. It appears that a substantial amount of fuel spills. This occurs at all fill ups it is not gas station specific. This can be a danger if it spews on something hot. Also I would think that it's an environmental concern and it stinks. Very frustrating problem!.
