THERE IS A PROBLEM WITH MY FUEL TANK, EVERY TIME I FILL UP, REGARDLESS OF THE GAS STATION I GO TO, FUEL OVERFLOWS FROM MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED ONTO THE PAVEMENT. I HAVE TRIED OVER 30 DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS IN 3 DIFFERENT STATES. I HAVE HEARD THIS SAME COMPLAINT FROM MANY OTHER JEEP AND CHRYSLER PRODUCT OWNERS. THE CONSTANT EXPOSURE TO FUEL IS DAMAGING THE PAINT ON MY FENDER AND I CAN ONLY IMAGINE IT IS NOT GOOD FOR THE PAVEMENT. ALSO, I HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT FIRE EVERY TIME I FILL UP. *TR

I BOUGHT THE JEEP AS A CERTIFIED PRE-OWNED CHRYSLER. I'VE ONLY OWNED THE JEEP FOR A MONTH AND NOTICED GAS PUMPS DO NOT SHUT OFF WHEN FILLING THE TANK. I'VE TRIED MULTIPLE PUMPS, AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. IT HAPPENS ABOUT 90% OF THE TIME. THE LOCAL DEALERSHIP SAID IT'S NOT SOMETHING COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. SEEMS LIKE A MAJO…

AT THE END OF THE PUMPING OF GAS, IT SPEWS OUT THE FUEL LINE AND ALL OVER MY JEEP AND THE GROUND. THIS SEEMS LIKE A SAFETY AND ECOLOGICAL ISSUE. I HAVE TRIED EVERYTHING FROM PUMPING FAST TO SLOW, NOZZLE RIGHT SIDE UP TO UPSIDE DOWN, ALL THE WAY IN AND HALF WAY OUT. NOTHING STOPS THE PROBLEM. *TR

ALMOST LOST CONTROL AND THEN COULD ONLY GET THE VEHICLE UNDER CONTROL BY SLOWING TO 40MPH AND ALMOST GOT RE-ENDED. 1) THERE WAS A BUMP IN THE ROAD AND THE VEHICLE STARTED SHAKING 2) ALMOST LOST CONTROL, THEN NEAR MISS BY VEHICLES BEHIND ME WHEN I HAD TO REDUCE SPEED TO 40MPH TO REGAIN CONTROL 3) I WILL BE SENDING THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOP, BUT FROM WHAT I HAVE READ, THERE HAVE BEEN MANY COMPLAINTS BY OTHER OWNERS AND NOTHING THE DEALER DOES TO FIX THIS PROBLEM HAS WORKED. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 JEEP TJ RUBICON, AND EVERYTIME I FILL MY GAS TANK IT OVER FLOWS SPILLING GAS ON THE JEEP AND GROUND. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AND THEY SAID IT WAS A GAS TANK ISSUE AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AND IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE WARRANTY. *TR

WHEN REFUELING, FUEL WILL OVERFLOW FROM THE FILLER NECK BEFORE THE PUMP WILL STOP. ONCE THE FUEL COMES OUT, THE PUMP WILL THEN STOP. THIS HAS HAPPENED REGULARLY AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND RESULTS IN APPROXIMATELY 0.25 GALLON OF FUEL ON THE VEHICLE AND GROUND. *TR

FUEL SURGES BACK OUT OF FILL TUBE WHILE REFUELING. THIS HAPPENS EVERYTIME I REFUEL NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION, GAS PUMP, HOW MUCH FUEL IS ADDED. ABOUT A QUART OF FUEL WILL BURP BACK OUT AND WILL SPLASH ON THE VEHICLE, GROUND, AND PERSON REFUELING THE JEEP. I TOOK MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE THEY ADMITTED THE PROBLEM IS A FAULTY CHECK VALVE LOCATED INSIDE OF THE GAS TANK. THE ONLY REPAIR IS TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK. I HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS BECAUSE I'M THE SECOND OWNER OF THE VEHICLE WHICH IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD AND HAS 53,000 MILES. THIS IS CLEARLY A MANUFACTURES DEFECT AND A SAFETY ISSUE THAT SHOULD BE LOOKED INTO AND SHOULD BE CONSIDERED TO BE A RECALL AT THE MANUFACTURES EXPENSE. *TR
