FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
FUEL SPILLS OUT ON ME AND SURROUNDING AREA WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK. THIS EVENT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. I CANNOT USE THE AUTOMATIC FUEL SHUTOFF ON THE FUEL NOZZLES AS GAS IS SPILLED (ABOUT .5 CUP) ON THE SURROUNDING AREA. THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHILE FILLING UP THE VEHICLE WITH GAS, AFTER THE GAS PUMP HANDLE SHUTS OFF, A PORTION OF GAS WILL FLOW OUT OF THE FILL TUBE. DIFFERENT POSITIONS OF THE GAS PUMP INSERTED INTO FILL TUBE STILL RESULTS IN GAS POURING OUT THE FILL TUBE. GAS WILL STILL POUR OUT OF THE FILL TUBE EVEN AT A VERY SLOW FILL RATE. DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS WERE USED WITH THE SAME RESULT. THERE IS GREAT CONCERN ABOUT THE SPILLED FUEL CATCHING FIRE ON THE VEHICLE OR A PERSON WHO THIS HAPPENS TO UNEXPECTED.

I HAVE A 2007 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON 2-DOOR AND EVERY TIME I FILL GASOLINE IT SPEWS OUT EVERYWHERE AND THIS DOES NOT MATTER HOW FAST THE FLOW OF GAS IS OR AT WHAT DEPTH THE PUMP HANDLE IS. IT IS ENOUGH GAS TO COME UP AND OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE RUN DOWN MY REAR QUARTER PANEL AND MAKE A PUDDLE ON THE GROUND. NOT A SAFE SITUATION WITH THE UNCONTROLLABLE DISCHARGE OF A HIGHLY FLAMMABLE LIQUID. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN TRYING TO FILL FUEL TANK, THE GAS WILL OVERFLOW BACK OUT THE OPENING. THIS HAPPENS NO MATTER HOW FAR THE NOZZLE IS INSERTED. THIS CAN BE MUCH WORSE IF THE JEEP IS POINTED SLIGHTLY DOWNHILL VERSUS LEVEL OR SLIGHT UPHILL. GASOLINE WILL FLY OUT ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE WRANGLER AND CAN COAT THE PERSON PUMPING FUEL. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHERE I GET THE GAS. THIS STARTED AT 35000 MILES AS HAS GOTTEN WORSE. *TR

NOTHING HAS LEAD TO FAILURE. GAS POURS OUT THE FILL HOLE WHEN THE TANK IS ALMOST FULL EVERY TIME I TRY TO FILL THE TANK. IT HAS HAPPENED FOR ALMOST A YEAR NOW. IT IS DANGEROUS AND CAUSES GASOLINE TO SPILL ON THE JEEP, GROUND, AND PERSON FILLING THE JEEP. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
MY '07 JEEP WRANGLER JK BEGAN TO OVERFLOW FUEL AT NEARLY EVERY FILL UP. THIS STARTED IN APPROXIMATELY NOVEMBER '10 WITH ABOUT 38,000 MILES ON THE JEEP. AT TIMES THE GAS WILL SPEW OUT WITH SIGNIFICANT FORCE, CREATING A SERIOUS HAZARD. OTHER TIMES IT POURS OUT RIGHT PAST THE FILLER HANDLE AND POURS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND ALL OVER THE GROUND. IT HAS DONE THIS EVEN AFTER I HAVE TRIED TO RELIEVE SOME OF THE PRESSURE IN THE GAS TANK BY STOPPING THE PUMP, REMOVING HANDLE FROM FILLER NECK, THEN RE-INSERTING TO RESUME FUELING. THIS IS A DANGEROUS CONDITION THAT NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED. I AM AWARE THAT MANY OTHER OWNERS OF THE NEW WRANGLER JK HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. *TR

GAS SHOOTS BACK OUT OF THE FILLER NECK ONTO ME, THE JEEP, & THE GROUND BEFORE THE PUMP CUTS OFF EVERY TIME I FILL IT UP. THIS JUST STARTED A FEW MONTHS AGO. I BOUGHT THE JEEP FROM A FRIEND WHO PURCHASED IT NEW, & SHE SAID THAT IT HAD JUST STARTED DOING IT A FEW WEEKS BEFORE I GOT IT FROM THEM. IT NEVER HAPPENED UNTIL THE JEEP GOT ABOUT 40,000 MILES ON IT. *TR

WHILE REFUELING THE VEHICLE AND THE AUTO SHUTOFF DEVICE CLICKED FUEL WAS BURPED OUT OF THE FILLER AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND ONTO THE REAR BUMPER. THIS IS OCCURING AT EVERY FILLUP SINCE THE 50,000 MILE MARK ON THE ODOMETER. IT DOES IT WITH THE FILL NOZZLE SET AT ANY FLOW RATE. *TR

MY 2009 JEEP WRANGLER WILL OVERFLOW GAS ONTO THE SIDE OF THE JEEP ONTO THE GROUND EVERY TIME I FILL THE GAS TANK UP WHEN USING ANY GAS STATION'S AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF. I DO NOT "TOP OFF" THE TANK. I HAVE TRIED 5 DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS TO MAKE SURE THIS WAS NOT LIMITED TO MY USUAL GAS STATIONS. I HAVE ALSO TRIED FILLING THE TAKE UP AT SLOWER SPEEDS, BUT IT STILL OVERFLOWS. THIS ISSUE STARTED APPROXIMATELY AT 20K MILES. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE NOT ONLY FOR ME BUT OTHER PEOPLE USING THE GAS PUMP AFTER ME. ON SPARK FROM STATIC ELECTRICITY COULD CAUSE A FIRE/EXPLOSION. *TR

POWER TRAIN:MANUAL TRANSMISSION
OVER 8 TIMES IN THE PAST MONTH MY 2009 JEEP WRANGLER HAS VIOLENTLY SLIPPED OUT OF FIRST GEAR WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE. WHEN THIS HAPPENS THE CAR STOPS SUDDENLY AND THERE IS A LOUD BANG LIKE ONE WOULD EXPECT IN A REAR END COLLISION. I AM LUCKY THIS HAS NOT HAPPENED WHILE IN AN INTERSECTION OR WHILE TRYING TO AVOID A COLLISION. THE DEALERSHIP WILL NOT EVEN LOOK INTO THE PROBLEM IF THEY CANNOT RE-CREATE THE INCIDENT WHICH HAPPENS AT UNPREDICTABLE TIMES. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR SERIOUS INJURY NOT ONLY FOR ME BUT OTHERS. *TR

MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER SAHARA HAS FUEL OVERFLOW EVERY TIME THAT I FILL THE TANK. IT SPILLS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE CAR, ON THE GROUND, AND ON MYSELF IF I AM IN FRONT OF THE NOZZLE. I TOOK IT IN 2 YEARS AGO, AND WAS TOLD THAT EVERYTHING WAS FINE. I HAVE TRIED FILLING IT DIFFERENTLY, BUT IT STILL SPILLS A LITTLE WHEN IT IS ALMOST FULL. IT MAKES MY HANDS STINK, AND MY GARAGE. I AM AFRAID IT WILL CORRODE THE PAINT ON MY CAR. I HAVE HEARD OF OTHER WRANGLERS WITH THE SAME PROBLEM, AND MY WIFE HAS A 2009 WRANGLER THAT HAS THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. *TR
