FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHILE FILLING UP MY GAS TANK I SET THE PUMP'S TRIGGER MECHANISM THAT ALLOWS FOR CONTINUOUS FLOW. PRIOR TO THE AUTOMATIC STOPPING OF THE PUMP A SUBSTANTIAL AMOUNT OF GASOLINE SPEWED OUT FROM THE TANK. THIS RESULTED IN A TRAIL OF GASOLINE FROM MY TANK DOWN THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE AND ULTIMATELY A LARGE PUDDLE OF GASOLINE ON THE PAVEMENT. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
EVERY TIME I FILL MY VEHICLE UP WITH GAS THE PUMP SHUTS OFF AND THEN THE VEHICLE SPEWS GAS OUT OF THE FILL TUBE. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT EVERY PUMP I HAVE USED AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS. I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT ANGLES AND IT DOES NOT HELP. THE LAST TIME IT HAPPENED GAS GOT ALL OVER MY HANDS AND ALL OVER THE VEHICLE. I AM CONCERNED ABOUT THE PAINT WEARING AWAY AS WELL AS THE POTENTIAL SAFETY ISSUE OF HAVING GAS UNDER THE VEHICLE. A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT COMES OUT OF THE FILL TUBE WHEN THIS HAPPENS. I HAVE SEEN MULTIPLE REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING ON DIFFERENT FORUMS. IT LOOKS LIKE A WARRANTY WAS EXTENDED FOR 2007 AND 2008 MODELS, BUT NOT 2010'S. *TR

POWER TRAIN, ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING, SERVICE BRAKES, HYDRAULIC, STRUCTURE
BOUGHT A CERTIFIED USED VEHICLE FROM FAIRFIELD DODGE, CRYSLER, JEEP IN MUNCY , PA AND IN 4 MONTHS OF OWNING THIS VEHICLE IT HAD A RECALL ON THE TRANSMISSION SKID PLATE, ENGINE LIGHT ON DUE TO BROKEN SENSOR, IN NEED OF FOUR BRAKE ROTORS AND BRAKE PADS. THEY STATED THAT WHEN THEY SERVICED THE VEHICLE WHEN THEY PURCHASED IT THAT THE ROTORS WERE CUT FOR THE LAST TIME WHEN THEY CERTIFIED THE VEHICLE FOR SALE ON THE LOT. AND NOW FOUR MONTHS LATER IT NEEDS $1,200.00 WORTH OF REPAIRS. THEY STATE THAT THE ESIM WAS BROKEN BY ME OR SOMEONE THAT WAS UNDER THE HOOD AND THAT I WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE PARTS BUT NOT THE LABOR THE SAME WITH THE BRAKES. I FEEL THAT THIS VEHICLE SHOULD HAVE NEVER BEEN FRONT LINE READY OR EVEN CERTIFIED WITH ALL THESE ISSUES, THEY ARE VERY, VERY POOR REPRESENTITIVES OF YOUR BRAND. I DID NOT BUY A JEEP TO HAVE MAJOR PROBLEMS WITHIN FOUR MONTHS OF PURCHASE. THEN WHEN I ARRIVED THE DAY OF SERVICE THEY NO LONGER HAD MY RECALL PART THEY PUT IT ON ANOTHER VEHICLE THAT CAME IN BEFORE MINE. I LIVE TWO HOURS AWAY FROM THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY FAILED TO DO THERE JOB. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
I JUST BOUGHT MY 2010 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED SPORT A LITTLE OVER A MONTH AGO. JUST RECENTLY, PAST 6 FILL UPS, THE PUMP WILL CLICK SIGNIFYING FULL, THEN SPEW AND OVERFLOW ALL OVER SIDE, BUMPER AND GROUND. NO MATTER HOW I TRY TO FILL IT UP, EVEN KEEPING MY HAND ON PUMP, IT WILL OVERFLOW EVERY TIME. IT IS EVEN STARTING TO SHOW NOTICEABLE FADING ON THE BUMPER WHERE GAS SPILLS. *TR

APPROXIMATELY 5 MONTHS AGO MY 2010 JEEP WRANGLER BEGAN OVERFLOWING AT EVERY FILL UP, SPILLING FUEL ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE AND THE GROUND. THIS HAD HAPPENED AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND DIFFERENT TEMPERATIONS, AND NO MATTER HOW SLOW I TRY TO PUMP THE FUEL IT STILL OVERFLOWS. THIS PROBLEM BEGAN ALL AT ONCE AND I NEVER HAD AN ISSUE WITH IT BEFORE. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
THE LAST TIME TWO TIMES I FILLED MY GAS TANK, AT TWO DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS, THERE WAS A BACKSPLASH OF GASOLINE AFTER THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY STOPPED. I DID NOT TRY TO TOP OFF. AS I PULLED THE NOZZLE OUT OF THE TANK, ABOUT A CUP OR TWO OF GAS SPLASHED OUT OVER THE FENDER, MY FINGERS, AND ONTO THE GROUND. THE FIRST TIME I ASSUMED IT WAS A FREAK INCIDENT FROM THE PUMP, BUT AS IT HAPPENED A SECOND TIME TODAY AT A DIFFERENT GAS STATION, IT SEEMS TO BE AN ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK, AFTER THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF, FUEL SPILLS FROM THE TANK. THE FUEL SPURTS OUT, GETTING ON SKIN AND CLOTHING, AND RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE, ENOUGH TO PUDDLE ON THE GROUND. THIS HAS OCCURRED AT THE LAST TWO CONSECUTIVE FILL-UPS FOR THIS VEHICLE. IT OCCURRED AT TWO DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. AT NEITHER OCCURRENCE WAS THE TANK BEING "TOPPED OFF" WHEN THE FUEL SPILLAGE OCCURRED. THE FUEL SPURTING OUT ALLOWS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS EMISSIONS TO BE RELEASED. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
EVERY TIME I'VE FILLED UP THE GAS TANK, NO MATTER IF I DO IT AUTOMATIC SETTING OR MANUAL WITH THE LOWEST SETTING PRESSURE WHILE PUMPING. THE GAS OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME. I'VE TRIED SEVERAL GAS PUMPS, ADJUSTED THE SETTING OF THE PUMP INSIDE THE TANK, IT STILL OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME. I SPOKE WITH THE DEALERSHIP OF THIS ISSUE AND THEY SAID THAT MY 2010 YEAR MODEL WAS NOT COVERED FOR THE RECALL WHEN I'VE HEARD FROM FELLOW OWNERS OF THE 2010 MODEL HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM BUT THEY JUST OPT TO NOT FILL UP THE TANK WHILE PUMPING AND JUST STOP MIDWAY. *TR

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
WHEN I FILL UP MY CAR GAS SPILLS OUT AT THE END. IT STARTED A COUPLE OF MONTHS AFTER I BOUGHT IT BUT THEN IT STOPPED. THE LAST MONTH IT HAS GOTTEN EXTREMELY WORSE. I SAW THAT LATER MODEL JEEPS HAD THIS PROBLEM AND THAT THERE WAS A RECALL. MINE WAS DOING EXACTLY THE SAME AS THE RECALL VEHICLES, BUT I WAS TOLD THAT I WAS NOT ELIGIBLE FOR THE RECALL AND WOULD HAVE TO PAY FOR THE REPLACEMENT TANK. I HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY, BUT I DO NOT FEEL THAT I SHOULD HAVE TO PAY A DIME FOR A CONTINUED PART PROBLEM. *TR
