2008 Jeep Liberty

THE LAST 3 TIMES I HAVE FILLED THE GAS TANK ON MY VEHICLE, GAS HAS OVERFLOWED ONTO THE GROUND. AFTER THE 2ND TIME, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS ADVISED THE CODE READ THAT THE FILLER NECK WAS FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. I ADVISED THEM THAT I HAD AN ISSUE WITH GAS OVERFLOWING ONTO THE GROUND WHEN FILLING UP AND WAS ADVISED IT "MAY" BE FIXED BY THE NEW FILLER NECK SINCE THERE IS A SENSOR IN THERE. I HAD THE FILLER NECK REPLACED. I FILLED THE JEEP AGAIN TODAY, ROUGHLY A WEEK AFTER HAVING THE FILLER NECK REPLACED, AND AGAIN GAS OVERFLOWED AND LEAKED DOWN THE SIDE OF MY JEEP AND ONTO THE GROUND. UP UNTIL THIS POINT, WHEN FILLING MY JEEP, THE GAS PUMP WOULD CLICK OFF WHEN THE TANK WAS FULL. I HAVE GONE TO THREE DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS SO IT IS NOT A PROBLEM WITH THE PUMP AT THE STATION. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL THE GAS TANK, FUEL GUSHES OUT OF THE FILLER NECK ONTO THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND ONTO THE GROUND. MOST TIMES, THE AUTOMATIC FUEL SHUTOFF A THE GAS PUMP .... AT VARIOUS STATIONS ... DOES NOT STOP THE FLOW. AT OTHER TIMES, FUEL GUSHES OUT EVEN IF THE PUMP SHUTS OFF. I HAVE TRIED SLOWING THE RATE FUEL GOES INTO THE TANK. SOMETIMES THIS WORKS. OTHER TIMES, IT DOESN'T. THE ONLY WAY TO AVOID THIS POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS SITUATION IS TO TRY TO CALCULATE HOW MUCH FUEL IT WILL TAKE TO FILL THE VEHICLE AND THEN STOP THE FLOW MYSELF A COUPLE OF GALLONS EARLY. THERE IS A JEEP TSB OUT ON THIS PROBLEM. AND THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS. THE FUEL SPILLAGE ISSUE IS DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE A RECALL ITEM. *TR

I BOUGHT MY JEEP IN JUNE WITH JUST OVER 36000 MILES. IT WAS PREVIOUSLY A RENTAL VEHICLE. EVERYTHING WAS FINE UNTIL ABOUT SEPTEMBER WHEN I FILLED GAS AND THE PUMP CLICKED OFF AND GAS CAME OUT ALL OVER AT ABOUT 42,000 MILES. I THOUGHT IT WAS THE GAS PUMP, BUT THEN I WENT TO OTHER STATIONS AND IT HAPPENED EVERY TIME. I WAS GOING TO BRING IT IN TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT BUT I SEE OTHER PEOPLE HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. IT IS VERY IRRITATING TO HAVE IT HAPPEN EVERY TIME! PLEASE HAVE A RECALL! *TR

SUDDEN ENGINE ACCELERATION INCIDENT. MY WIFE AND I WERE LEAVING A PARKING LOT. AFTER BACKING OUT OF MY PARKING SPACE I DROVE FOR ABOUT 1 MINUTE TO A STOP SIGN. I PUT THE MANUAL TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL AND WAITED FOR A CAR TO EXIT THE INTERSECTION AND FOR SOME PEDESTRIANS TO CROSS. SUDDENLY, WITHOUT TOUCHING THE ACCELERATOR, THE ENGINE BEGAN TO RACE. I LOOKED AT THE TACHOMETER. THE ENGINE THAT NORMALLY IDLES AT ABOUT 600 RPM WAS RUNNING AT 2500 RPM. I SAT AT THE STOP SIGN FOR A FEW MOMENTS AND DECIDED THE THROTTLE MUST HAVE STUCK. WITH THE STICK SHIFT IN NEUTRAL I TAPPED THE ACCELERATOR HOPING TO UNSTICK THE THROTTLE. THE ENGINE ROARED TO 3500 RPM AND STAYED THERE FOR 10-20 SECONDS. THEN THE RPMS STARTED TO DROP BACK DOWN TO NORMAL IDLE.. WEATHER WAS CLEAR AND DRY TEMPERATURE 60 DEGREES, TIME 3 PM. IT WAS SCARY. IF THE TRANSMISSION WAS IN GEAR WHEN THE ENGINE TOOK OFF, I WOULD HAVE TAKEN OFF. I'M AFRAID TO DRIVE THIS CAR. *TR

SHE WAS ALSO UNABLE TO LOCK THE VEHICLE ONCE SHE EXITED BECAUSE THE LOCKING MECHANISM WAS INOPERABLE. AS A RESULT, THE VEHICLE WAS LEFT UNATTENDED AND UNLOCKED. THE DEALER HAD NOT BEEN NOTIFIED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE HOWEVER, THEY DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. NO REPAIRS WERE PERFORMED. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 60,000 AND THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS UNKNOWN.

AWAY FROM THERE BECAUSE WE HAD TO TAKE IT WERE WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE AND NOT COVERED BY THE WARRANTY. IT'S BEEN 11 DAYS ALREADY AND I STILL DON'T HAVE MY VEHICLE BACK. I HAVEN'T SEEN THAT MANY VEHICLES WITH THE SUNROOF LIKE MINE AND I'M REALLY WONDERING IF THIS HAS HAPPEN TO SOMEONE ELSE. *TR
