FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
DURING EVERY FILL UP OF GAS, THE NOZZLE DOES NOT SHUT DOWN IN TIME AND FUEL SHOOTS OUT OF THE FILL TUBE ALL OVER ANYONE FILLING THE TANK AND ONTO THE GROUND. THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME THING, ALL WITH JEEP WRANGLERS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
I OWN A 2005 JEEP WRANGLER. WHEN FILLING UP THE VEHICLE WITH GASOLINE IT OFTEN DOESN'T REGISTER THE FACT THAT THE TANK IS FULL AND THE GAS COMES POURING OUT. THE GAS LEAKS ONTO ME, MY JEEP AND THE GROUND. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL MY TANK. I SEE THIS AS A SAFETY ISSUE SINCE IT'S BAD TO GET GASOLINE ON YOUR BODY/CLOTHING, IT'S ALSO DAMAGED THE PAINT ON MY JEEP IN THAT AREA AND THE SPILLAGE ON THE GROUND IS NOT GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT AND A DANGER FOR OTHERS AS WELL. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT THE FAILURE. CHRYSLER CLAIMS THEY DON'T SEE IT AS A "SAFETY HAZARD." OF COURSE, IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD. THERE IS A FAULTY PART IN THE GAS TANK/GAS TANK ASSEMBLY THAT SOME OF US CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR OUT OF POCKET. IN FACT, WHY SHOULD WE? IT'S A DEFECT FROM THE FACTORY. THIS HAS BEEN ONGOING BUT I LISTED THE APPROXIMATE INCIDENT DATE AS THE MONTH I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
AFTER THE FUEL PUMP AT A GASOLINE STATION SHUTS OFF INDICATING MY GAS TANK IS FULL, GASOLINE SPEWS BACK OUT OF THE TANK THROUGH THE OPENING WHERE THE GAS PUMP NOZZLE IS INSERTED ONCE THE NOZZLE IS PULLED OUT AFTER FUELING. THE AMOUNT OF FUEL SPILLED IS SIGNIFICANT. I BELIEVE IT COULD CAUSE DAMAGE TO MY PAINT AND PLASTIC PIECES ON MY VEHICLE AND IS ALSO A FIRE AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. THIS IS NOT A RESULT OF CONTINUING TO PUMP FUEL WHILE REMOVING THE NOZZLE. THE FLOW OF FUEL THROUGH THE NOZZLE HAS STOPPED BUT PRESSURE FROM INSIDE THE TANK FORCES FUEL OUT WHEN THE GAS NOZZLE IS REMOVED. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS AND DID NOT OCCUR EARLIER IN THE VEHICLE'S HISTORY AND DOES NOT OCCUR WHEN I AM FUELING OTHER VEHICLES. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
AFTER HAVING MY JEEP FOR 3 1/2 YEARS, EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK (NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION) THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF DOES NOT WORK ON THE PUMP AND LARGE AMOUNTS OF GAS SPILL OUT EVERYWHERE. IT DID NOT DO THIS FOR THE FIRST 3 1/2 YEARS OF OWNING THE VEHICLE. NUMEROUS OTHER PEOPLE ON THE INTERNET ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE AND IT'S BELIEVED TO BE THE ROLL OVER CHECK VALVE IN THE TANK BEING BAD. LOCATED HERE IS JUST ONE 14 PAGE DISCUSSION: HTTP://WWW.JEEPFORUM.COM/FORUM/F9/GAS-SPILLING-OVER-WHEN-FILLING-872096/ IF THIS IS HAPPENING WITH THIS MANY PEOPLE IT COULD BE A MAJOR FIRE AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD AT A GAS STATION. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK ON MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER, THE TANK 'SPITS' THE FUEL OUT OF THE FILLER NECK AS IT NEARS THE TOP. THE PROBLEM STARTED JUST RECENTLY. BUT THE AMOUNT OF FUEL SPILLED IS GETTING LARGER WITH EACH FILL UP. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED RUBICON. EVERY TIME I FILL IT UP WITH GAS, A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF GAS SHOOTS OUT BEFORE THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. THIS HAPPENS AT EVERY PUMP I'VE TRIED. GOING SLOW AT THE END DOESN'T SOLVE THE PROBLEM. ENOUGH FUEL COMES OUT THAT I USUALLY HAVE TO MOP IT UP OFF THE GROUND. THIS IS A DANGEROUS FIRE HAZARD. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
IN THE PAST MONTH THE VEHICLE HAS BEGUN TO "SPIT UP" GASOLINE WHEN FILLING UP AT THE SERVICE STATION. WHENEVER I FILL THE TANK TO FULL AND THE FILL NOZZLE AUTOMATICALLY CUTS OFF, A GOOD AMOUNT OF GASOLINE COMES UP THROUGH THE FILLER NECK SPILLING OUT ONTO THE GROUND. VARIOUS JEEP OWNERS HAVE ENCOUNTERED THE SAME ISSUE AND HAVE POSTED IT ON THE NET THOSE THAT HAVE SOUGHT TO HAVE THE PROBLEM REMEDIED HAVE USUALLY HAD A NEW TANK INSTALLED AND/OR SOME SORT OF EMISSIONS VALVE REPLACED. MY VEHICLE IS OUT OF WARRANTY AND MY DEALER WILL NOT EVEN LOOK AT IT WITHOUT ME PAYING A 'DIAGNOSIS' FEE. FURTHERMORE I CANNOT AFFORD TO PAY FOR A NEW GASOLINE TANK ON A VEHICLE THAT'S ONLY 3 YEARS OLD AND HAS 27,300 MILES! I HAVE RESORTED TO ONLY FILLING MY TANK 3/4 OF THE WAY. I FEEL THIS PRESENTS VARIOUS SAFETY ISSUES SINCE THERE IS A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF GASOLINE SPILLAGE PRESENTING A DANGEROUS SITUATION AT THE PUMP. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHILE FILLING UP MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER (TJ), GAS HAS COME SHOOTING OUT OF THE INLET FOR THE GAS PUMP NOZZLE. I AM *NOT* ATTEMPTING TO 'TOP OFF' MY FUEL TANK, THIS OCCURS IN THE NORMAL PROCESS OF FILLING MY TANK UP. TODAY'S INCIDENT (12/23/2009) IS THE THIRD INCIDENT IN LESS THAN TWO MONTHS. PREVIOUSLY, I HAD THOUGHT THAT PERHAPS IT WAS ME EXCEEDING THE FILL LIMIT OF THE TANK ('TOPPING OFF') BECAUSE I WAS USING THE 'AUTO FILL' SWITCH ON THE GAS NOZZLES HANDLE. HOWEVER, AFTER THE SECOND INCIDENT IN TWO MONTHS I DECIDED TO DO SOME RESEARCH ONLINE AND HAVE FOUND THAT THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMPLAINT WITH LATER MODEL JEEP VEHICLES. TO THIS DATE AND TO THE BEST OF MY KNOWLEDGE, HOWEVER, CHRYSLER HAS NOT ISSUED ANY RECALL OR WARNING CONCERNING THIS SAFETY ISSUE. I AM FILING THIS COMPLAINT BECAUSE OF THE SAFETY HAZARD INVOLVED WITH THE SPLASH BACK OF FUEL WHICH CAN HIT THE PERSON FILLING UP THE TANK; AND BECAUSE THE SPLASH BACK COVERS THE REAR CORNER PANEL OF THE JEEP AFTER IT HAPPENS, LEADING TO A FIRE HAZARD TO THE VEHICLE. I HAVE NOT YET CONTACTED CHRYSLER, BUT I WILL BE DOING THAT TODAY AS WELL. *TR

2007 JEEP WRANGLER X OVERFLOWS AT THE GAS PUMP EVEN AFTER THE PUMP 'CLICKS'. THIS IS THE FOURTH TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED. PUMP SHOULD SHUT OFF AT AROUND 18 GALLONS WHEN THE CLICK OCCURS BUT FOR SOME REASON THE CLICK SOUNDS GOES OFF AND GAS BEGINS TO OVERFLOW OUT OF THE JEEP. GAS SPILLS ALL OVER THE JEEP, THE GROUND, AND ME. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO FIX THE FAILURE AS I AM UNSURE TO WHAT THE ISSUE IS/WHAT THE DEALER WILL DO. PLANNING ON TAKING IT IN TO THE DEALER AFTER CHRISTMAS. *TR

WHEN FILLING UP MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED WITH FUEL, INSTEAD OF SHUTTING OFF THE FILLER NOZZLE, GASOLINE SHOOTS OUT OF THE GAS TANK FILLER NECK SPILLING GASOLINE ALL OVER THE JEEP AND THE SURROUNDING AREA. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME I REFUEL. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
NO EVENTS LEADING UP TO FAILURE, JUST HAPPENED ONE DAY. IT HAPPENED TO ME AROUND 75, 000 MILES ON MY JEEP, AND EVER SINCE. THE PROBLEM IS THAT WHEN I PUT GAS INTO MY JEEP THE TANK ISN'T VENTING PROPERLY, WHICH CAUSE GAS TO GUSH OUT THE FILLER OPENING AFTER THE PUMP HAS AUTOMATICALLY TURN OFF. IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE OR WHEN I FILL UP, IT WILL DO IT EVERY TIME UNLESS I PUMP THE GAS IS REALLY SLOW. NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE TO CORRECT THE PART. ACCORDING TO OTHER JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS THEY HAVE BEEN TOLD BY THE DEALER ITS A FAULTY ROLL VALVE INSIDE THE GAS TANK. WHICH REQUIRES THE ENTIRE TANK TO BE REPLACED. ACCORDING TO ONE DEALER THIS IS CONSIDERED A NORMAL WEAR ITEM. YET A FAULTY ROLL OVER VALVE SOUNDS LIKE A SAFETY ITEM TO ME. I HAVE HEARD OF PEOPLE HAVING THIS SAME PROBLEM WITH 30K MILES ON THEIR JEEPS. *TR
