FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THE GAS ALWAYS OVER FILLS AND SPILLS OUT WHEN YOUR FILLING IT UP. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME I FILL UP THE GAS. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT STATION I AM AT OR WHAT THE WEATHER IS LIKE. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING EVER SINCE I BOUGHT THE JEEP. EVERYONE I KNOW THAT OWNS A JEEP HAS THE SAME PROBLEM OCCURRING. THIS IS A MAJOR FIRE HAZARD AND ALSO NOT WHAT I WANT TO HAPPEN WHEN GAS IS ALMOST $4.00 A GALLON. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
THE AUTO SHUT-OFF FEATURE OF THE FUEL SYSTEM DOES NOT WORK. WHEN I FILL UP THE GAS TANK, FUEL WILL SPRAY / SPILL OUT. THE FIRST OCCURRENCE THAT I EXPERIENCED WAS AROUND 40K MILES. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP (AS IT WAS STILL UNDER WARRANTY). THEY ADVISED ME THAT THEY COULD FIND NOTHING WRONG. AT THAT POINT, IT WAS OCCURRING INTERMITTENTLY. AT SOME POINT SHORTLY AFTER THE WARRANTY EXPIRED, THE AUTO SHUT-OFF FEATURE OF THE FUEL SYSTEM FAILED COMPLETELY. NOW, EVERY TIME THAT I FILL UP THE GAS TANK, FUEL WILL SPRAY / SPILL OUT. THIS ISSUE CONTINUES TO THIS DAY. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE (FUEL SPILLED ON THE VEHICLE, ON THE OPERATOR AND ON THE GROUND) AND AN ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE (FUEL SPILLED ON THE GROUND), NOT TO MENTION THE ECONOMIC ISSUE OF PAYING FOR WASTED GASOLINE AT ABOUT $4 PER GALLON. BASED UPON THE NUMBER OF REPORTED ISSUES WITH THIS, I CAN'T BELIEVE THAT THERE HAS NOT BEEN A RECALL TO REMEDIATE THIS PROBLEM. THERE IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING FAULTY WITH THE DESIGN AND/OR MANUFACTURE OF THE PARTS USED IN THE 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. THIS IS NOT SOMETHING THAT SOMEONE SHOULD HAVE TO DEAL WITH IN A VEHICLE THAT THEY PURCHASED WHEN NEW AND HAVE IMPECCABLY MAINTAINED. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING MY COMPLETELY STOCK JEEP WRANGLER, FUEL SHOOTS OUT OF THE FILLER, EVEN WITH THE NOZZLE CLICKING OFF. IT DOES IT EVERY SINGLE TIME I FILL IT UP. I PREVIOUSLY OWNED A 2005 JEEP WRANGLER X AND IT DID IT ON THAT ONE AS WELL. IF I DON'T REMEMBER IT DOES THIS I END UP WEARING GAS ALL OVER MYSELF, NOT TO MENTION IT SHOOTS OUT SO VIOLENTLY IT HAS ALMOST SPLASHED THE CARS ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE GAS PUMPS. *TR

FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE
WHEN FILLING UP THE TANK ON MY 2006 RUBICON UNLIMITED, FUEL WILL OVERFLOW WITHOUT WARNING. IT DOES THIS EVERY TIME I FILL UP. IF I DO NOT STOP IT IN TIME, FUEL WILL OVERFLOW OUT WITH ENOUGH FORCE THAT IT WILL COVER THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND WHO EVER IS FILLING IT UP. MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON UNLIMITED DID THE SAME THING AND CHRYSLER RECALLED IT AND REPLACED THE TANK AND I HAVE HAD NO ISSUES SINCE. *TR

AT 20,000 MILES ON THE JEEP ANY TIME THAT WE FILL THE GAS TANK, AT ANY STATION, IT SPILLS OUT 1/2 TO 1 CUP OF FUEL AND SPRAYS ALL OVER THE PLACE. THIS IS UNSAFE FOR US PERSONALLY AND THE ENVIRONMENT. IT DOESN'T MAKE A DIFFERENCE IF THE PUMP IS GOING FAST OR SLOW IT SPITS CONSTANTLY AND THEN SPILLS OUT AT THE END. WE NEVER TOP OFF. THE JEEP CURRENTLY ONLY HAS 22,000 MILES ON IT. *KB
