Open the full vehicle complaint log (all categories)MY JEEP CAUGHT FIRE WHILE DRIVING ON HIGHWAY DUE TO A RUPTURED FUEL LINE SPEWING FUEL ONTO THE NEARBY PASSENGER SIDE EXHAUST MANIFOLD. WHEN I EXITED THE VEHICLE, A FLUID WAS ON FIRE DRIPPING DOWN FROM BELOW THE FUEL TANK. AFTER A FEW MINUTES, THE FIRE GOT TO THE ENGINE BAY AND MELTED ALL THINGS PLASTIC. I WENT TO THE SALVAGE YARD THE NEXT DAY TO SEE WHAT COULD HAVE CAUSED THE FIRE AND NOTICED THAT THE FUEL LINES WERE GONE. UPON COMPARING THEM WITH ANOTHER JEEP WRANGLER JKU WITH AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, IT APPEARS THAT THERE ARE TWO PLASTIC-LIKE LINES SHOW THE POTENTIAL OF RUBBING TOGETHER AND CAUSING THE LINES TO EVENTUALLY RUB OPEN. WITH THE EXHAUST MANIFOLD JUST A FEW INCHES AWAY, THIS IS A REAL POTENTIAL DANGER TO THE OCCUPANTS OF THE VEHICLE.
FUEL BLOW BACK WHEN FILLING IT, AT VARIOUS GAS STATIONS. NOT ABLE TO FILL AT NORMAL RATE. I HEAR FROM MANY PEOPLE THAT THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH JEEPS. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE. IT COULD BE THEIR BALL IN CAGE FILTER DESIGN, OR O RING GASKETS.
