FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
2006 JEEP WRANGLER - WHEN FILLING WITH FUEL AT ANY SERVICE STATION THE FUEL TANK WILL OVERFILL CAUSING FUEL TO RUSH OUT OF THE FILLER NECK AND ONTO ANYONE OR ANYTHING STANDING IN THE WAY. SEVERAL TIMES I HAVE BEEN COVERED IN FUEL BECAUSE IT WOULD NOT SHUT OFF WHEN FULL. THIS IS A POTENTIAL FIRE HAZARD AND HEALTH HAZARD WITH FUEL BEING DUMPED ON THE GROUND AT SERVICE STATIONS. MANY COMPLAINTS HAVE BEEN FILED AND MORE CAN BE READ AT JEEPFORUMS.COM. PLEASE DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS! IT IS A DANGER! *TR

VEHICLE SPRAYS OUT GASOLINE WHENEVER I FILL IT UP. 2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON IT HAPPENS AT RANDOM FILL UPS, USUALLY 3 OUT OF 5 TIMES. IT ONLY HAPPENS WHEN I FILL THE TANK TO FULL. THE DEALER HAS ATTEMPTED TO FIX THIS ISSUE A FEW TIMES ALREADY. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH, THIS ISSUE APPEARS TO BE HAPPENING ON ALOT OF JEEP VEHICLES. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
GAS TANK OVERFLOWS ON EVERY FILL - NO MATTER WHICH GAS STATION, PUMP, ETC (ALL OVER THE EAST COAST) THE AUTO SHUTOFF FIRES ONLY AFTER A CUP OR MORE OF GAS IS SPILLED. THIS HAS RESULTED IN ME BEING COVERED IN GASOLINE REPEATEDLY, NOT TO MENTION THE AMOUNT OF GAS SPILLED TO THE GROUND EACH TIME IT IS FILLED. (EVEN FILLING EXTREMELY SLOWLY RESULTS IN A SPILL.) *TR

SUSPENSION:FRONT, POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FRONT SUSPENSION WOULD BOUNCE AND CAUSE ROUGH HANDLING OF THE VEHICLE, MORE SO IN COLDER TEMPERATURES. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING 12 MPH. THE DEALER TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR A TEST DRIVE BUT COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE FAILURE. HE DID STATE THAT THE THROTTLE BODY COULD HAVE CAUSED THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 53,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 57,000. UPDATED 5/3/10 *CN THE CONSUMER WAS ALSO HAVING PROBLEM WITH THE TRANSMISSON. THE DEALER INFORMED THE CONSUMER NOT TO USE FIRST GEAR, BUT TO START IN SECOND GEAR. UPDATED 06/28/10*JB

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THE FUEL SPITS BACK OUT WHEN FULL AS I FILL THE TANK UP. NOT JUST A LITTLE, BUT A LOT OF GAS SPILLS OUT ON ME, THE GROUND, AND THE GROUND. I HAVE TRIED MANY DIFFERENT GAS PUMPS AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. JEEP KNOWS ABOUT THE ISSUE, BUT HASN'T RECALLED IT YET. THEY ONLY REPLACE YOUR GAS TANK WITH THE SAME ONE THAT WILL STILL CAUSE THE SAME PROBLEM. IT IS A SERIOUS HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I HAVE A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED. ALMOST EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FUELED UP, A SIGNIFICANT QUANTITY OF GASOLINE IS FORCEFULLY EJECTED/SPRAYED FROM THE FILLER NECK AS THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. THIS IS NOT A "TOP-OFF" SITUATION IT IS ON THE FIRST AND ONLY ATTEMPT. THIS HAS OCCURRED AT MULTIPLE STATIONS AND MULTIPLE PUMPS AT THOSE STATIONS. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
DURING FILLUP, FUEL WILL EJECT OUT OF THE TANK OPENING NEARLY EVERY TIME. THE GAS STATIONS PUMP WILL SHUT OFF WHEN IT DETECTS A FULL TANK, BUT ABOUT 1 SECOND LATER GASOLINE WILL ERUPT OUT ONTO THE JEEP'S BODY, THE FILLER HOSE, AND SOMETIMES MYSELF. THE ONLY TIME IT DOESN'T OCCUR IS WHEN THE FILLING STATION HAS THE AUTOMATIC SHUTOFF SENSITIVITY SET MORE SENSITIVE THAN IS NORMAL. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
ABOUT 50% OF THE TIME I FILL MY JEEP'S TANK IT WILL GUSH FUEL WHEN THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. I'VE TRIED GOING TO DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND IT STILL HAPPENS. NONE OF MY OTHER CARS DO THIS. AS A CONSEQUENCE IT SPILLS ABOUT A CUP OF FUEL ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY JEEP AND ON THE GROUND. JEEP WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT EVEN THOUGH THEY'RE AWARE OF IT. *TR

THIS COMPLAINT IS THAT I HAVE A 06 JEEP WRANGLER THAT EACH TIME SOMEONE FILLS THE GAS TANK WITH FUEL IT OVERFLOWS. THIS HAPPENS AT EVERY GAS STATION THAT IT HAS EVER BEEN FILLED UP AT. IT IS A HAZARD THAT FUEL SPILLS OUT OVER THE GROUND EACH TIME THAT IT IS FILLED UP. THE FUEL TANK HAS TO BE FIXED. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
MY '06 JEEP WRANGLER OVERFLOWS WITH GAS EVERY TIME I FILL UP NOW. IT BEGAN DOING THIS ABOUT A MONTH OR SO AGO, AND NOW DOES IT EVERY TIME I FILL UP REGARDLESS OF HOW SLOW I TRY TO PUMP THE GAS. GAS SPITS OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE ALL OVER THE JEEP AND THE GROUND. SEVERAL DAYS AGO MY WIFE, WHO WAS UNAWARE OF THE PROBLEM, DROVE MY JEEP AND AS A KIND GESTURE THOUGHT SHE WOULD FILL IT UP FOR ME. AS A RESULT, SHE ENDED UP GETTING GAS SPLASHED ON TO HER CLOTHES, THE JEEP, AND THE SURROUNDING GROUND. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED PROBLEM. I HAVE COME TO LEARN THAT MANY JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME PROBLEM. JEEP HAS IDENTIFIED THE PROBLEM AS BEING A STUCK CHECK BALL THAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM. TO REMEDY THE SITUATION, THEY RECOMMEND THAT YOU BUY A NEW GAST TANK. HOWEVER, NO CHANGES HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE NEW GAS TANKS, SO IT IS ONLY A MATTER OF TIME BEFORE YOU WOULD START TO EXPERIENCE THE SAME PROBLEMS AGAIN. UNFORTUNATELY, MOST OF US ARE RECENTLY OUT OF WARRANTY AND JEEP IS REFUSING ANY OTHER HELP. BESIDES THE OBVIOUS PERSONAL HAZARDS THAT ARE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS PROBLEM, YOU ALSO FACE AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD EVERY TIME YOU NEED TO FUEL UP YOUR VEHICLE. I SINCERELY HOPE THAT YOU CAN HELP ME AND TENS OF THOUSANDS OF OTHER JEEP OWNERS WHO ARE EXPERIENCING THESE PROBLEMS BEFORE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATHS OCCUR FROM THIS DEFECT.

SINCE SEPTEMBER 2009,EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER,AT LEAST 10 TO 12OZ SPILL OUT BEFORE THE AUTO SHUTOFF ON THE NOZZLE IS ENGAGED. I BELIEVE THAT THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING UP MY VEHICLE AT THE GAS PUMP, THE GASOLINE WOULD OVERFLOW. THE GAS WOULD PUMP NORMALLY. WHEN THE TANK FILLED UP, THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF WOULD CLICK OFF AND GAS WOULD STOP FLOWING. ABOUT 2 SECONDS LATER GAS WOULD COME SPEWING OUT OF THE NECK. THIS WOULD HAPPEN NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION OR PUMP I USED. I TOOK THE VEHICLE TO A CHRYSLER DEALER AND THEY REPLACED THE ENTIRE GAS TANK. THIS SOLVED THE PROBLEM. *TR
