FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
2007 JEEP WRANGLER SPLASHES FUEL OUT OF THE FILLER NECK WHEN REFUELED (AFTER PUMP CLICKS OFF). GAS IS SPILLED ON THE VEHICLE AND ON THE GROUND. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER WHEN IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY IN 2007 AS IT WAS HAPPENING INTERMITTENTLY, THEY COULD NOT FIND A PROBLEM. SINCE THAT TIME IT HAS GOTTEN INCREASINGLY WORSE OCCURRING EACH TIME IT'S REFUELED. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
GAS SURGES OUT OF GAS TANK SHORTLY AFTER THE AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF ON GAS PUMP ACTIVATES. SEVERAL CUPS OF GASOLINE POUR DOWN THE SIDE OF THE CAR AND PUDDLES ON THE GROUND. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL MY CAR AT EVERY GAS STATION. I NOW ONLY FILL MY CAR TO APPROXIMATELY 3/4 FULL. IT STARTED HAPPENING FALL OF 2010 WITH APPROXIMATELY 37,000 MILES ON THE CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT 10-12 TIMES.

POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
I HAVE A MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND WHEN STARTING FROM A STOP IN FIRST GEAR THE TRANSMISSION WILL POP OUT OF FIRST GEAR AND INTO NEUTRAL LEAVING YOU TO COST UNTIL YOU CAN GET IT BACK INTO GEAR. THIS OCCURS RANDOMLY AND WITH NO WARNINGS. AFTER THE FIRST TIME THE FREQUENCY INCREASES UNTIL THE ISSUE IS FIXED. THE PROBLEM CAN BE CORRECTED BY REPLACING THE APPROPRIATE SYNCHRO. WHEN PULLING OUT INTO HEAVY TRAFFIC THIS COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I HAVE A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED 2 DOOR THAT EVERY TIME I FILL THE GAS TANK UP AT THE PUMP IT RELEASES A SUBSTANITIAL AMOUNT OF GASOLINE THROUGH THE INLET AS IT IS TURNING THE PUMP OFF. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME I FILL MY TANK AND IS VERY DANGEROUS SEEING AS I GET FUEL ON MY SKIN AND THEN HAVE TO GET IN THE VEHICLE W/ MY 4YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. I AM NOT SURE WHAT TO DO TO CORRECT THE FAILURE.

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
AT APPROXIMATELY 30,000 MILES A PROBLEM STARTED WHERE I CAN NO LONGER "FILL" MY GAS TANK BECAUSE NO GAS PUMPS WILL STOP ON THEIR OWN. ONCE THE TANK IS FULL GAS WILL CONTINUE TO PUMP UNTIL I PHYSICALLY STOP THE PUMP. THIS DID NOT HAPPEN FOR THE FIRST 30,000 MILES AND JUST STARTED TO HAPPEN FOR NO APPARENT REASON. I NOW JUDGE HOW MUCH GAS I THINK I NEED AND STOP THE PUMP PREMATURELY. *TR

OCCASIONALLY MY TRANSMISSION VIOLENTLY "POPS" OUT OF FIRST GEAR WHEN I AM MOVING FROM A COMPLETE STOP. I HAVE NOW MADE A HABIT OF HOLDING THE SHIFT LEVEL INTO 1ST GEAR AND SOMETIMES IT FORCES MY HAND AND THE SHIFT LEVER OUT OF GEAR NO MATTER HOW HARD I AM PUSHING THE SHIFT LEVER. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I PURCHASED A USED 2005 JEEP WRANGLER WITH 17,000 MILES. WHEN I FILLED THE TANK, GAS WOULD GUSH OUT OF THE FILLER AND SPLASH ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. I HAD THE VEHICLE REPAIRED UNDER WARRANTY (NEW FUEL TANK), WHICH DID CORRECT THE PROBLEM. NOW, AT JUST OVER 51,000 MILES, THE PROBLEM HAS RETURNED. EVERY TIME I FILL THE VEHICLE, THIS DANGEROUS FUEL SPILL OCCURS. I LIVE IN A VERY DRY (LOW HUMIDITY) CLIMATE, AND IT IS VERY COMMON TO GET STATIC DISCHARGE WHEN TOUCHING ANY CONDUCTIVE SURFACE. I AM FEARFUL THAT I AM GOING TO EXPERIENCE A VEHICLE FIRE IF THIS SITUATION CONTINUES. I CAN NOT UNDERSTAND HOW THIS PROBLEM HAS NOT CAUSED A RECALL TO CORRECT THE DEFECT. *TR

UNKNOWN OR OTHER, FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THIS IS A RECURRING PROBLEM THAT I FACE WHEN I FILL THE VEHICLE UP AT ANY GAS STATION. WHILE FILLING THE VEHICLE WITH GAS, THE AUTO STOP CLICKS, AND IMMEDIATELY THE TANK STARTS SPILLING GAS. THE GAS SPILLS OUT AND RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND CREATING A PUDDLE. THIS PROBLEM ISN'T ATTRIBUTABLE TO TRYING TO "TOP OFF" THE TANK BECAUSE THE BY THE FIRST TIME THE AUTO STOP CLICKS, THE VEHICLE IS ALREADY POURING OUT GASOLINE. I HAVE SPOKEN TO MANY OTHER OWNERS REGARDING THIS PROBLEM AND THEY HAVE SAID THE SAME THING. I HAVE INVESTIGATED THROUGH NHTSA, AND THEY HAVE AN ONGOING INVESTIGATION INTO THIS MATTER (ACTION NUMBER : PE10032).
