Fuel overflows when fueling up. *tr
I recently bought a 2010 jeep wrangler and found that it has a fuel back flow issue. every time i refuel, the gasoline blows back out upon removal of the gas nozzle. gasoline gets on the ground, on me, as well as the paint and bumper of the vehicle. this appears to be a safety problem, let alone an environmental hazard. when inquiring into the fix i have been told that the entire gas tank assembly needs to be replaced at quite a high cost. (of course my jeep is out of warranty.) due to the potential liability i wouldn't be surprised if there's not a class action lawsuit impending. *tr
Fuel spillage during fill up, happens every time. fuel gushes out forcefully upon tank reaching its capacity. *tr
Problem is gas spilling from my jeep every time during fueling. somehow, it is not triggering the automatic shut-off valve causing fuel gashing everywhere. i never had this problem before and it only started last month. i did not alter anything on my vehicle and no accidents of any type. i'm not sure where the problem is but what i know is that this failure could be a potential safety problem if not resolved. *tr
Since i bought the vehicle i must be careful i cannot fill my tank. it overflows and spills creating a hazardous environment that is dangerous to my family and others. yesterday in the pump it got seriously dangerous when the the spill ran out of control. *tr
I was fueling the vehicle and the fuel just overflows out of the tank as though there is no stop. after the fuel gushes out of the neck of the gas tank. the issue was once a rare issue but now occurs every single time i fuel the vehicle. i fear that this may be a fire hazard and it is certainly a safety issue with fuel emerging from the tank. it first occurred in 2010 when the vehicle was new but it was rare. the issue now happens bi-weekly and has happened weekly since 2011. *tr
When filling up vehicle with gas, the pump shut off when full however the fuel splashed back out of the vehicle and ran down the side. *tr
When refueling, the nozzle on the fuel pump will not stop on time, allowing fuel to splash back at the person refueling. today, the nozzle didn't stop at all, allowing a lot of fuel to spill on the ground. a person doesn't have to fill it up either. if you stop mid refill, it will still spray back at the person refueling. *tr
During gas fill up, when the pump automatically stops, fuel comes gushing out of the fuel fill all over the side of the vehicle and the ground. *tr
2010 jeep wrangler unlimited - fuel overflows every time i fill up. if i fill the tank to the auto shutoff point a fair amount of fuel pukes out and down the side of the vehicle. this is a potential fire hazard, and not very good for the environment. it happens at every gas station - the only work around is to not fill the tank. *tr
Numerous time over the past 3 years i've had gas overflow / spill / spew out from while filling my tank with gas. this has happened at various gas stations and both using manually using the gas trigger or locking the gas trigger. i took the jeep to the dealer last year and they said it would cost $1200 to replace the gas tank. from the research i have done there is already an investigation into this matter for my specific make and model. *tr
Gas tank overfills no matter which pump i used at different gas stations. the vehicle was purchased new. this problem only has been occurring for the passed 4 months. *tr
Hello, my name is [xxx] and on january 4th, 2014 i purchased a 2010 jeep jk wrangler from a family friend, upon the first 3 times filling up (all so far) the gas has spewed out of the tank and onto the ground before i could shut off the pump handle. i've probably wasted at least 2 gallons already by doing this, which adds up quick. this seems very dangerous to me, one little spark could send the vehicle up in flames and harm me, and many others. i was wondering if there was any type of warranty to cover this so that myself, and others, don't have to pay hundreds of dollars to get the problem fixed, or worry every time we go to the pump. thanks for taking time to read this, [xxx]. information redacted pursuant to the freedom of information act (foia), 5 u.s.c. 552(b)(6). *tr
While fueling, the auto cut off failed to stop until there was an overflow of gas spilling onto the side of the car and ground. this has occurred multiple times. *tr
When filling up the gas tank to full (when the nozzle should automatically shut off), the gas will overflow/spit out fuel and spill. i've taken this into the jeep dealer to determine what the cause is. the dealer's diagnosis of the problem was a faulty shutoff valve within the tank and to fix this issue, the whole tank would need to be replaced. this is not caused by "user error". this issue is a common occurrence with jeep wranglers as cited from numerous other complaints and should be recalled as spilled fuel poses a fire hazard to the fueling station, the vehicle, and the driver/passengers. source: edmunds auto observer, chrysler fuel spit-back complaints rise, link: http://www.edmunds.com/autoobserver-archive/2011/02/chrysler-fuel-spit-back-complaints-rise.html. *tr
