The poor design of the gas tank rollover safety float ball in this vehicle continues to allow gasoline to splash back out of the gas filler neck of the vehicle every single time at an auto shut off fueling nozzle is used. This is a known defect but which they offered a remedy that had an age or mileage limit. This is a gross safety hazard and should warranty T a recall before some one blows up.

Catalytic converter: Was driving and check engine light went on, vehicle began 'chugging' as though not getting enough fuel. Smelled gasoline. Called Jeep dealer in Florida and was advised to let engine cool, then drive to local dealer since it sounded as though the catalytic converter needed to be replaced. Stated this as normal for the mileage. Emissions warranty valid. (was stationed in naples, italy.) Jeep dealer in naples advised he would not honor any warranty and would not fix until I paid him 1K euros. Overseas military car sales got involved and said not to worry about it: Work would be done and covered by warranty. Dealer pulled entire emissions system out and replaced it, then refused to release vehicle for 30 days until I paid the 1K euros. Dealer stated he did not have to honor warranty on a us-registered vehicle because fiatchrysler paid him less than he could get from me. Threatened to impound vehicle. Fiatchrysler refused to assist although dealer was not authorized to pull/replace system unless covered by warranty. Florida dealer and selling dealer in wa state advised that if we could have gotten the vehicle home, it would have been a warranty replacement without any problems because it was a common issue at this mileage (53K).

When fueling up and the hand pump clicks off, gas continues to shoot out of the fuel tank. Its enough to leave a small puddle on the ground not to mention all over the rear of my Jeep and it has stained my new fender flare. I understand this has been an ongoing problem with Jeep Wrangler.

When filling gas tank shutoff does not work and gas overflows. Happens at every station, every time I fillup.
- Ashford, CT, USA
When I hit speeds of 50mph, my Jeep wobbles terribly. I have read numerous reviews and complaints that this is not uncommon and it even has a name, the "death wobble". we are going to pass the Jeep onto our 16 yr old daughter, but would like to know if it is going to be recalled or if it is fixable. I would hate anything to happen to our daughter, especially if Jeep is aware of this problem,

2005 Jeep Wrangler gas tank spills gas out of the fill line onto the ground at every fillup, even when filling slowly. As I read on the Jeep Wrangler forums this is a very common problem.
