Problems with 2005 Jeep Wrangler FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE

Gas tank overflows and splashes out gas when filling the vehicle with gas. it occurs at every fill up and at various gas stations/pumps. the result is gas splashing and flowing out of the filler nozzle posing a fire hazard and exposure to a solvent. the gas tank was removed and the vent hoses inspected with no abnormalities found. *tr

When filling the gas tank, prior to getting full, there is gas "burping"/splashing out of the fill opening. *tr

When refueling 2005 jeep wrangler rubicon unlimited gas spills out at completion of fill up. this happens every time vehicle is refueled and gas then runs down side of vehicle. *tr

When filling the car with fuel at various gas stations over the last 3 months the fuel pump does not shut off. this causes gasoline to spill out over the filler neck. the spill is strong enough where it spews back a few inches towards the person standing next to the tank. *tr

Every time i fill my gas tank it overflows all over the outside of the vehicle. the automatic shut off on the gas pumps does not do anything. the gas pump will shut off automatically and still over flow. sick and tired of constantly cleaning gas off the outside of my car. *tr

Sprays gas out the filler neck when the tank gets full and the auto shut off on the gas nozzle activates. this happens every time i fill it up. this problem started a long time ago so i just estimated it started at 40,000 miles. i now have 70,000 miles on the vehicle. *tr

2005 jeep wrangler unlimited - there is a back-splash issue when fueling the vehicle, every time! if you do not just stop it early (before it is full) it will splash back every time you fuel, sometimes quite a bit of fuel spilled. i have talked to several other owners of this make and model jeep and most of them said they have the same problem. i called chrysler about this and asked if this was an ongoing issue. the representative said they were not aware of the issue. i find that unlikely. *tr

Every time i fill the gas tank of my jeep fuel spits back. the dealer said it was normal, i do not believe this should happen. i recently read on line about many jeeps doing the same thing. this has been happening for about one year. i purchased the vehicle new. it has never been in an accident, and is well maintained. *tr

Every time i fill my vehicle with gasoline, it sprays gasoline out of the filler hole after the gasoline pump shuts off. *tr

Fuel tank belches gasoline out before auto shut off occurs, spraying gas outward on vehicle and operator. *tr

Every time i attempt to fill the gas tank on my 2005 jeep wrangler x fuel overflows at the point at which it should automatically shut off. on some occasions its a small amount, other times, its sprays out forcefully and gets all over me, my jeep, the ground, and anything else in the immediate area. it does not matter which gas station i fill up at, it happens everywhere. my only solution is to attempt to calculate how much i can put in manually without totally filling it up. lots of guesswork involved, sometimes unsuccessfully. i see spraying a flammable liquid around in an unintended manner as a safety hazard. so far, jeep does not see it the same way.... *tr

When filling up my 2005 jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon gas sprays everywhere. it will spray either all over my car or spit out at least 3-4 feet and hit the car next to me. this happens everytime i fill the gas tank to full. *tr

When filling with fuel, this jeep spits fuel back out the filler on you when it gets full. happens like 95% of the time no matter how slow you fuel it. this will get someone burned sooner or later. common jeep problem listed in online forums. *tr

When fueling, pump will not automatically shut off when gas tank is full. this spills gas on the vehicle, owner, and ground. *tr

I am experiencing a continuing, dangerous and worsening spraying of gasoline when i fill the tank of my 2005 jeep wrangler unlimited. i have video evidence of this problem, and has been occurring since the vehicle had approximately 40,000 miles on it. i just learned this safety issue is well known within the jeep community. *tr

When filling up the vehicle's fuel tank, an air pocket is trapped at the top of the tank. when the tank becomes full, this air pocket rushes towards the neck and out towards the person filling up the vehicle. each time this occurs, fuel spews onto the side of the vehicle and sometimes sprays outward onto the pump handle and me. this is dangerous not only for the environment, but for me filling up the vehicle because it has the potential to get into my eyes/face when the fuel and air bubble rush out. i took the vehicle in to the local jeep dealership and another reputable mechanic, and both said they could put a new tank on, but that may not fix the problem because the tanks on the wranglers have a manufacturing defect that causes this problem. all sensors and vents on my tank are working properly. when the fuel tank becomes full, the pump is shut off as it is supposed to, but about half a second afterwards is when the air and fuel spew out. i am not letting the vehicle run while filling up, nor am i trying to top the tank off. this is a defect in the fuel tank of this vehicle and this problem needs to be addressed by jeep. i just purchased the vehicle, and this happens whenever i fill up. i do not know if this happened to the previous owners or not, there are multiple forums on the internet that state that there are a large number of wrangler owners that are having this problem.

I purchased a used 2005 jeep wrangler with 17,000 miles. when i filled the tank, gas would gush out of the filler and splash all over the side of the vehicle. i had the vehicle repaired under warranty (new fuel tank), which did correct the problem. now, at just over 51,000 miles, the problem has returned. every time i fill the vehicle, this dangerous fuel spill occurs. i live in a very dry (low humidity) climate, and it is very common to get static discharge when touching any conductive surface. i am fearful that i am going to experience a vehicle fire if this situation continues. i can not understand how this problem has not caused a recall to correct the defect. *tr

Fuel overflowing from fill ups

When filling the gas tank the gas always spews out without the nozzle cutting off. *tr

My 2005 jeep wrangler unlimited has an overfilling problem every single time i fill up at the gas station. it doesn't matter if i use the lowest setting on the gas pump or if i manually use as little pressure as possible, it overfills every single time and gas pours out of the fill spout running down the body of the vehicle, on my hand, on my clothes and on the ground. this is an extremely dangerous problem and affects the 2003-2006 jeep wrangler series. *tr

Fuel spilling during fill up. *tr

2005 jeep tj while filling does not click the pump off and therefore leaks and spills out all over the road causing an epa nightmare. happens all the time when filling up. there is a known problem with jeeps doing this but the government pays no attention. maybe the epa is too busy worrying about something else other than fuel spillage and seepage into water supplies...? *tr

Gasoline spits out of tank while filling with fuel. this occurs every time i refuel. this is a health risk as well as an environmental risk that needs to be addressed.

Everytime i fill up my 2005 jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon with fuel, gas shoots out the filler tube instead of shutting off when the tank is full. *tr

My "new" used 2005 jeep tj will spill gas all over the place when filling up gas. it doesn't matter if i do it manually or let it fill up with the auto switch on. even when i "hear" the gas near the top of the tank it still spits gas out of the tank and onto my hands, the side of the jeep and on the ground. what a pain in the [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr

At around the 50k mileage mark, fuel would gush out when filling up the tank. tried different gas stations, old and brand new pumps, all resulted in gas gushing out as the pump turned off. chrysler-jeep service replaced the fuel filler tube. topped off the gas tank after the "fix", seemed good. let the tank go down to less than 1/4 then filled the tank and the gas gushed out yet again! this is both a safety and environment issue. please request jeep to find a real fix for this and issue a recall.

After filling the fuel tank, the gas pump stops but the gas comes gushing out of the filler tube. this has now happened every time i have filled up my jeep since the first time it happened in jan 2011. *tr

Gas tank overflow: i bough the jeep over 1 year ago. 3 out of 4 times i fill up the tank, the gasoline overflows out the tank and sprays me or the ground. it happened this morning too. *tr

2005 jeep tj and a 2005 jeep lj gas tank overflows when filled at pump. *tr

Every time i fill the gas tank on my 2005 jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon it overflows out of the fill location. sometimes the splashing is very powerful other times it is just a medium splash. the only way to not have this happen is to anticipate when the tank should be full and stop. *tr

Fuel spills over when filling gas in 2005 jeep wrangler tj model. *tr

Gas spews back out at me when i try to fill my 2005 jeep wrangler (all over me and the ground).

When i try to fill my tank using the autofill option on the fuel pump handle, the fuel doesn't shut off when the tank is full and will come splashing out in force. my solution thus far is to be aware of the gallon amount as i fuel the vehicle, then when it gets fairly close, i try to trickle the fuel in so as not to splash too much fuel out on to the ground or my pants and shoes. *kb

Fuels sprays out of the fill point when filling at a gas station. i have had it spray into the air and into my mouth and close to my eyes. i have the nozzle in the hole and on auto stop and when it is full, the pump stops the fueling after the fuel come squirting out. this is a known problem and i am sick and dang tired of getting fuel all over my hands, face and clothing! *tr

Fuel spilling over before pump shuts off when filling up. *tr

When i fill my jeep up with fuel it always overflows with fuel spewing on me the ground and my vehicle. nothing seems to change it not slowing down the pump or anything. my research brings me to it being a failure with the rollover/checkvalve at the bottom of the filler tube failing to close allowing fuel to overflow. here are some examples of other people with the same problem http://www.jeepforum.com/forum/f9/gas-spilling-over-when-filling-872096/ i have two more friends with jeeps with the same problem. nothing was done to fix the issue it isn't covered under warranty. was going to enter my vin but the vin entry doesn't work. so no vin. *tr
