NHTSA Complaint #10391908 — 2007 JEEP WRANGLER

MY VEHICLE SPILLS FUEL OUT OF THE FILLER AREA EVERY TIME I FILL UP. THE FUEL GETS ON ME, THE VEHICLE, AND THE GROUND. I HAVE CONTACTED CHRYSLER ABOUT THE MATTER, AND THEY ADVISE ME BECAUSE I AM OUTSIDE THE TIME FRAME FOR THEIR TSB, ANY REPAIRS WOULD HAVE TO BE PAID BY ME. AFTER THOROUGHLY RESEARCHING THE MATTER, IT SEEMS THIS IS A WIDE SPREAD CONCERN. CHRYSLER HAS ADDRESSED THE ISSUE FOR SOME, BUT NOT OTHERS BECAUSE "WE'RE OUTSIDE THE WINDOW". PLEASE SEE YOUR CODE #PE10032. ALSO, MY VEHICLE CONSUMES OR BURNS OIL AT THE RATE OF ONE QUART PER 1000 MILES. AGAIN, RESEARCH SHOWS THIS IS ANOTHER WIDE SPREAD MATTER ATTRIBUTED TO FAULTY MOTOR CONSTRUCTION OF SOME 2007/2008 ENGINES. OWNERS WHO HAVE HAD THE REPAIR DONE UNDER WARRANTY FOUND THAT ON THREE PISTONS, RING GAPS WHERE IN A LINE, THE OTHER THREE WHERE CLOSE, ALL SIX OIL EXPANDER RINGS AND PISTON RODS WHERE INSTALLED UPSIDE DOWN. CHRYSLER WILL ADDRESS THE MATTER ONLY IF YOU ARE STILL UNDER WARRANTY. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY THE COST SHOULD BE BARED BY THE CONSUMER WHEN BOTH MATTERS ARE SO COMMON AND WIDE SPREAD AS TO INDICATE DESIGN FLAWS IN THE PRODUCT. WHY SHOULD I PAY FOR THEIR INABILITY TO BUILD A COMPONENT CORRECTLY?
