2006 Jeep Wrangler

EVERY TIME I FILL UP WITH GAS, THE AUTO SHUTOFF DOESN'T WORK AND SPILLS GAS ALL OVER MY JEEP AND THE GROUND. IT HAPPENS REGARDLESS OF GAS STATION, TEMPERATURE, HOW FAR THE NOZZLE IS PUSHED INTO THE FILLER, ETC. IT HAPPENS EVERY SINGLE TIME I FILL UP. IT HAS DONE THIS FOR NO APPARENT REASON, SINCE THE DAY I BOUGHT IT WITH ONLY 19K MILES ON IT. I CHECKED THE VENT LINE GOING FROM THE TANK TO THE FILLER NECK, AND ITS FINE. EVENTUALLY THE GAS HAS STARTED TO WEAR AWAY THE PAINT FINISH, AND THE FINISH ON THE FLARE. NOT TO MENTION A HAZARDOUS MATERIAL SPILL. *TR

WHEN FUELING MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER THE GAS PUMP WILL NOT SHUT OFF AND GAS SPRAYS FROM THE TANK. I HAVE TRIED SEVERAL STATIONS AND THE PROBLEM CONTINUES. AFTER DOING SOME RESEARCH I HAVE FOUND MANY ISSUES SIMILAR TO MINE. THE COMMON CONCLUSION IS THE ROLL-OVER ANTISPILL VALVE HAS GONE BAD AND THIS PART IS NOT REPLACEABLE ON ITS OWN. SO IT SEEMS THAT THE WHOLE FUEL TANK NEEDS REPLACING. IT SEEMS THIS PART NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AS IT HAS A HIGH RATE OF FAILURE. *TR

THE VEHICLE IS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON W/~44,000 MILES. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED DURING A TRIP AND UPON RETURN A DIAGNOSTIC TOOL READ THE ERROR CODES = P0016 AND OTHERS. THE CODE P0016 INDICATED A CAM-CRANKSHAFT SENSOR WHICH IS PART OF THE CAMSHAFT SYNCHORNIZER (PART #53010624AC). INQUIRY INTO PURCHASING THIS PART, WE WERE TOLD THE PART IS ON NATIONAL BACK ORDER AND HAS BEEN FOR MORE THAN 9 MONTHS. FURTHER INQUIRY INTO NUMEROUS OTHER DEALERS AND PARTS COMPANY'S SUPPORT THE NATIONAL BACK ORDER PROBLEM. AND AFTER DEEPER RESEARCH ONLINE INTO THIS ISSUE INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING THREAD AT HTTP://WWW.JEEPFORUM.COM/FORUM/F9/CHRYSLER-PAYING-INSTALL-NEW-CAM-2005-2006-OWNERS-SHOULD-READ-963235/?REFERRERID=211189 IT SHOWS A MUCH MORE SERIOUS PROBLEM EXISTS THAN JUST A SENSOR CAUSING A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THERE WAS A RECALL (EO5) FOR THE 2005 MODEL YEAR BUT YET THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS IN THE 2006 MODEL AS EVIDENCED BY THE THREAD (THERE ARE OTHER THREADS AND RESEARCH) AS WELL AS THE NATIONAL BACK ORDER FOR THE PARTS SUPPORTING THIS PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS THE TEETH ON THE ASSOCIATED GEARS FOR THE SYNCHRONIZER AND THE CAMSHAFT PARTS PREMATURELY WEAR OUT CAUSING PLAY BETWEEN THESE TWO GEARS THUS ACTIVATING THE SENSOR WHICH THEN CAUSES THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT TO BE ILLUMINATED. THIS CEL ACTIVITY LIMITS THE MAXIMUM RPMS AT ~3,000 THUS CAUSING LIMITED DRIVABILITY. FOR EXAMPLE, IF WHEN EXCEEDING THIS RPM LIMIT DUE TO CHANGING GEARS TO EITHER ACCELERATE OR DECELERATE, THE VEHICLE SPUTTERS AND HESITATES SIGNIFICANTLY THUS REDUCING DRIVABILITY POTENTIALLY ENDANGERING THE OCCUPANTS DURING NORMAL CITY AND INTERSTATE DRIVING CONDITIONS. FURTHER USE OF THE VEHICLE CAUSES FURTHER FAILURE OF THESE GEARS RESULTING IN A SHUT DOWN OF THE VEHICLE AND COMPLETE INOPERABLE. WHEN THE GEARS STOP TURNING, THIS ACTION STOPS TURNING THE OIL PUMP RESULTING IN NO OIL FLOW. NO OIL FLOW COULD POTENTIALLY CAUSE THE ENGINE TO SEIZE SHOULD THESE GEARS FAIL WHILE DRIVING ON OUR INTERSTATE SYSTEM. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER THAT IS SHOOTING GASOLINE OUT OF IT AFTER IT IS FILLED UP WITH GAS. BASICALLY, AFTER THE FUELING IS COMPLETE AND THE PUMP CLICKS OFF, GASOLINE SHOOTS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK AND ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR, THE GROUND, AND THE PUMP. IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME UNTIL THIS DEFECT CAUSES A FIRE AT A STATION OR GETS SOMEBODY KILLED. JEEP IS REFUSING TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM. THERE ARE QUITE A FEW JEEP OWNERS WHO ARE REPORTING THIS SAME PROBLEM. *TR

06 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON TANK OVERFLOW/SPLASH BACK WHEN REFUELING. AT EVERY FILL UP REGARDLESS OF PUMP HANDLE STYLE, ANGLE OR DEPTH OF PUMP NOZZLE OR STATION LOCATION, A LARGE AMOUNT OF FUEL SPLASHES BACK AT THE POINT WHEN IT SHOULD CUT OFF. IT DOUSES ME AND MY VEHICLE AND THE GROUND WITH GASOLINE. PROBLEM BEGAN APPX 2 YEARS AGO AT ROUGHLY 40K MILES AND HAS BEEN CONTINUOUS TO DATE. NO ACTION HAS BEEN TAKEN TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM BECAUSE NO SPECIFIC SOLUTION HAS BEEN FOUND. *TR

1. FAILURE APPARENT SINCE BEGINNING OF OWNERSHIP. 2. FUEL SPILLS OUT OF GAS TANK UPON FILLING THE GAS TANK IN A NORMAL FASHION. FAILURE OCCURS EVERY TIME GAS TANK IS FILLED COMPLETELY. GAS SPILLS OUT OF TANK, OVER THE OUTSIDE OF THE VEHICLE, AND ON TO THE GROUND AT THE GAS PUMP. 3. NO ATTEMPTS TO CORRECT FAILURE AT THIS POINT. *TR

I HAVE A 2006 UNLIMITED JEEP WRANGLER AND A COUPLES YEARS AGO, WHILE MY CAR WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, THE GAS TANK STARTED OVERFLOWING, THE PUMP DID NOT STOP AND GAS WOULD GET ALL OVER THE CAR, MY CLOTHING, ETC. THE DEALERSHIP THEN REPLACED THE ENTIRE GAS TANK. RECENTLY THIS PROBLEM BEGAN AGAIN AND I HAD TO CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER DIRECTLY AND THEN THE DEALERSHIP TO GET THIS FIXED. I ENDED UP PAYING APPROXIMATELY $222 TO GET A NEW GAS TANK AGAIN. WHEN I WENT FILL UP THE CAR AFTER PICKING IT UP FROM BEING "SUPPOSEDLY" FIXED I REALIZED THAT IT WAS NOT FIXED AND GAS WAS ALL OVER MY CAR. IT SEEMS AS IF THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM AND REPLACING THE GAS TANK IS A SHORT TERM FIX OR NO FIX AT ALL. NEEDLESS TO SAY, I HAVE TO BRING MY WRANGLER BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN. *TR
