OUR 2012 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED HAS STOCK WHEELS AND RIMS, IN FACT IT HAS THE SMALLEST STOCK WHEELS AND RIMS OFFERED BY THE MANUFACTURER. WE HAVE NOT "UPSIZED" OUR WHEELS AND RIMS WITH AFTERMARKET PRODUCTS. THE METAL "STRAP" (THAT'S WHAT THEY CALL IT AT THE DEALER) ON THE TAILGATE THAT KEEPS IT FROM SWINGING WIDE OPEN BROKE, AND WHEN IT BROKE IT SWUNG OPEN AND BROKE THE TAIL LIGHT LENS AND HOUSING. THE DEALER REPLACED IT UNDER WARRANTY, AND WITHIN A WEEK IT BROKE A SECOND TIME. THE DEALER REPLACED IT A SECOND TIME. AGAIN, WITHIN A WEEK, IT BROKE FOR A THIRD TIME. IT WAS REPLACED UNDER WARRANTY AGAIN. THIS WAS JUST YESTERDAY. THE DEALER SAYS IT REPLACES THESE ALL THE TIME, AT LEAST ONE A WEEK. THIS IS A FAULTY PART THAT SHOULD BE RECALLED. I HAVE LOOKED ON JEEP WRANGLER FORUMS AND LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE THIS PROBLEM, AND LOTS OF PEOPLE HAVE IT HAPPEN MULTIPLE TIMES. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
INTERMITTENT FUEL OVERFLOW WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK. AT FIRST IT WAS A ONCE IN A WHILE THING, MAYBE ONCE EVERY 10 FILL UPS, BUT RECENTLY HAS STARTED TO BE A RECURRING ISSUE. ABOUT 2-4 CUPS OF GAS WILL COME OUT OF THE FILLER NECK, DRIPPING DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND. SOME OF THIS MODELS FROM PREVIOUS YEARS HAD A RECALL OR SAFETY UPDATE THAT REPLACE PART OF THE FUEL FILLER TUBE TO INCLUDE A CHECK VALVE. I HAVE TALKED WITH OTHER JEEP OWNERS WITH THE SAME MODEL YEAR THAT ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AND HAVE READ ABOUT OTHERS HAVING THIS ISSUE AS WELL. I CONTACTED CHRYSLER TO INQUIRE ABOUT GETTING THE FIX FOR THE EARLIER MODELS APPLIED TO MY VEHICLE AND WAS TOLD THAT DUE TO THE AGE AND MILEAGE, CERTAIN THINGS ARE EXPECTED TO NEED REPLACEMENT AND AS A VEHICLE OWNER, I NEED TO BE RESPONSIBLE FOR THAT. I UNDERSTAND THAT, BUT WHEN THE REPLACEMENT PART THAT IS NEEDED IS CONTROLLED BY CHRYSLER AND NOT AVAILABLE FOR SALE TO PRIVATE INDIVIDUALS, THIS BECOMES ANOTHER ISSUE. LUCKILY, I WAS ABLE TO FIND A DEALER THAT WOULD SELL ME THE RECALL REPLACEMENT PART. *TR
