2008: “Airbag light going on and off, now mostly stays on. My mechanic ran diagnostics and has three or four very pricey possible solutions; he is referring me to dealer who charges $89.99 just to hook up to their computer. Finding a lot of the same complaints from 2008 Jeep wrangler rhd owners.”
NHTSA complaint #10392834, filed 2011-03, 55,000 miles2007: “2007 Jeep wrangler jk (2 door) spits back fuel and spills about a cup of fuel when gas station pump shuts off. This happens at the end of filling the tank regardless of the pace the fuel is pumped (amount spilled is less at lower pump rate but still happens). This began happening about 2 months ago when vehicle had about 27,000 miles. It never happened before that. This is a potentially dangerous issues since it now happens every time the vehicle is fueled.”
