Problems with 2010 Jeep Wrangler FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

On average, the 2010 Jeep Wrangler starts to “feel” problems with the FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM and its various aspects after 50 816 miles.

Recently reported FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM problems on 2010 Jeep Wrangler

My dealership refuses to honor a recall for the fuel spillback problem and wants me to pay in excess of $300 for the part and repair. this is the problem with fueling and the pump shutoff does not engage, thus overflowing and spilling gasoline out of the fuel door. this of course happens when the car is stationary. i wasn't allowed to order the mopar part number cnnnx321ac to repair the problem myself because the vendor said it can only be purchased by the dealer because it is a "recalled" part. i need to know how i can file a claim to be reimbursed if i have to pay the dealership or how i can order the part through a vendor who would allow me to purchase the part. please respond with a solution. thank you.

When i fill up tank of gas it overflows, does not shut off pump. gas overflows onto fender, bumper, tire and ground. this is a safety issue. not to mention a waste of gas and smelly hands all day after cleaning gas off of fender and bumper. have previously filed a complaint but to date no tsb or recall to address this safety issue.

Seem to have a fuel leak somewhere. smell of gasoline from the rear of the vehicle. especially strong when the heater is on. strong smell even when just walking around the vehicle outside, but no obvious leak visible.

While fueling jeep, as it gets full it will splash gasoline from the fill area onto the jeep and myself. this is an ongoing problem as it happens on a regular basis and then have to clean my jeep and myself up because the gas comes out at a good force. i then smell like gasoline for the rest of the day.

When filling my jeep with fuel, the fuel pump does not shut off quickly enough and gasoline splatters out of the tank and onto my hands, cloths, jeep and ground. this happens every time regardless where i fill up. i use qt, bp and shell stations. some are new and some or old. this can not be a pump issue but a jeep issue.

When fueling vehicle, fuel will spill out where nozzle is and flow down side of vehicle and from a puddle of gas on the ground, it's is unknown how close fuel gets to muffler exhaust system but could potentially start a fire at the gas pumps.

I bought this jeep brand new and almost from the start when filling up at the gas station. when the tank is full the nozzle shuts off then a lot of gas comes out the fill pipe i have tried different gas stations all the same problems. i have tried going slow took almost 20 minutes to fill the gas tank and still gas come splashing out of the fill pipe. i think their is something defective in the fill pipe that doesn't trigger the shut off in the nozzle fast enough.

Gas tank overflows every time jeep is fueled gas pours out after auto shut off

Major gas spillage after stopping the pump. gas goes everywhere. this is seriously dangerous!

Every time i fill the gas tank it overflows. this seems to be a widespread issue.

When filling the gas tank it regularly overflows if i don't manually stop the pump prior to the automatic shut off occurring when it detects a full tank. this happened at multiple gas stations of multiple brands so it's not isolated to one station or pump type. this is dangerous because fuel spills all over my car as well as the ground at the pump.

Fuel tank leak out of evap line connection. part is plastic and non-replaceable, requiring replacement of entire fuel tank. appears to be common problem as fuel tank is on significant backorder (i can afford to replace tank at cost of $1000.00 for a $1.00 part failure). while fuel tank is on back order, the tank continues to leak from broken, irreplaceable plastic part.

Gas tank overflows after auto-shutoff when filling.

When fueling to full, the tank almost always overfills, the safety switch on the gas pump does not trip (no matter what station i use). i must monitor it closely and guess how much fuel i need and stop the pump early.

My vehicle has an issue with fuel spilling out of the tank and on to the ground each time i fill up. i do not top off the tank nor do i use the fastest setting on the pump to deliver the fuel. it is known issue by the manufacturer and a warranty bulletin has been issued for previous model years. the manufacturer nor the dealerships take responsible action on repairing the safety and environmental issue. they instead ask consumers to front the costs and save receipts in the event a recall is issued in the future for reimbursement. i am writing this hopes that your agency will investigate and issue the recall if necessary so this problem can be fixed.

Using fuel pump auto shut off results in tank overfilling

Every time i fill my gas tank, i spill a lot of gas out the fill neck. it occurs no matter how slow or fast i fill. it spit gas out almost like it's burping. i have researched this problem and it is a very common problem.

Gasoline splashes back when tank gets refueled while vehicle is stationary at the pump. i've experienced this issue since at least march of 2018. my mechanic suggests that this problem should be recognized as a defect necessitating a recall. google search informs that this seems to be a common and ongoing problem for other wrangler owners as well. you'll find video's posted by others on youtube.

When i fill my tank and the nozzle shuts off a significant amount of gas spews out of the fill hole

When filling the gas tank in my 2010 jeep wrangler unlimited sahara it overflows pouring gas back out of the filler once the pump has stopped. did some research and this seems to be a common problem.

Every time adding fuel blowback occurs spraying fuel over the car and 2-3 feet proximity. there is an existing recall for this for model year 2007-2008

Fuel filler overflows fuel during vehicle fueling. this occurs when filling tank until pump clicks off for the first time.

I currently own a 2010 jeep wrangler unlimited sport. every time i fill up that gas tank it over flows. i have never had this issue in any other car i've owned. i go to the gas station to fill up my tank and i sit in my car while it fills up and when it's full i get out of my car and every time there is gas all over my jeep and on the ground as well. i asked around and many other jeep owners have the same issue. i want to know what is causing this to happen and how it can be fixed. i won't even get out of my car until my tank is full because it spray everywhere. please someone fix this issue we are having

Gas tank takes forever to fill, clicks every .25 gal or less and have to start refueling all over again till full, also almost always will overfill. spoke to many jeep owners and this is common issue with jeeps. look at message boards jeep seems aware of issues but they don't fix issue. always fuel flat surface at gas stations and this happens at every gas station pump i've tried.

Fueling cut-off is not functioning. no matter what fuel station i use the vehicle fuel spits out of the fuel tank opening. i have went to pumping manually as slow as possible and the opening still spits fuel out once tank is full. this has been occurring for the last year. in the beginning, i could slow the flow and it would kick off without mess, but now no matter how slow it flows it spits fuel out onto the ground. the date below is the latest time it has happened.

I have had my jeep for about six months now, and within the last month, it began spewing excess gas for a second or two even after it was done fueling. i have not done anything different to my car, nor have i been fueling at just one gas station. multiple stations have produced the same result. i am very afraid because the amount of gas could potentially be hazardous.

Fuel spills out when refueling vehicle. nozzle auto shuts off then fuel spurts out. no idea why, have not changed type of fuel being used although it is now winter in spokane so the formulation may have changed, don't know. it is a dangerous situation.

Since i purchased my jeep it has had a fuel overflow issue where fuel gushes out of the gas tank once filled to capacity. i have always tried to not fill to capacity to avoid the issue. i am reporting this issue now because i am having my jeep services for other recall notices and was surprised that there was not a recall already in place for this hazard.

Every time i fill the gas tank, gas splashes back onto the pavement (or my clothing if i am standing near the fill pipe). this is a well known, and dangerous, problem that jeep owners are aware of (per the on-line forums). i understand that there was a recall or service bulletin related to earlier models of jeep wranglers. two dealers i went to deny any knowledge of this problem with 2010 wranglers. on-line forums indicate that this is a continuing problem on newer wranglers and that dealers are charging $200 - $600 to fix the problem when a simple solution for many owners has been to personally install part cnnnx321ac ($40.00) which is a replacement fuel fill tube that has some sort of mechanism in it to prevent splash back. i installed this part and it solved the problem. the dealers i went to said they were not aware of this fix. i think that chrysler should be paying for this fix. instead they are denying that there continues to be a problem on the newer vehicles. i can't emphasize enough how dangerous this problem is.

Gas over flows when fueling and spills all over person who is pumping gas

Fuel spill during fill up.

Tl* the contact owns a 2010 jeep wrangler. while the vehicle was stationary, the fuel tank overflowed and spilled fuel onto the ground. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 81,000.

When refueling the car, gasoline gushes out of the fill hole when the pump shuts off. this happens every time and i have learned to never fill the tank. the first several times this happened i was soaked with gasoline. i have since learned to avoid the problem by never filling the tank.

Just bought 2010 jeep on 1/2/17 with only 38k miles for our 17 year old son. every time we put gas in the jeep the gas splatters out everywhere, enough to saturate side of jeep and ground as well as clothes, skin. the gas will still come out after automatic shut off occurs. it seems the gas is coming back out of the tank and not the nozzle since we have gone to different gas stations. even let the gas nozzle sit a moment before removing from tank. vehicle engine was shut off and not running. nozzle was properly inserted. my husband and myself have tried to do it without the gas spilling (slow, not topping off, waiting to remove nozzle) but it still does it. not a safe vehicle for our son to take to college.

When fueling, gas sprays out of the fill hole. this causes a dangerous condition for the environment and for the people it sprays on. fca says i need a new fuel tank.($1100.00) they could not find the problem when the warranty was in effect but now that the warranty has expired they know exactly what to do.

Gas gushing out when filling vehicle at gas pump, the auto shut off does not shut off manually or auto shut off. vehicle is stationary, i believe this is a manufacturers problem in the gas tank preventing the gas overflow. this is a hazard. this vehicle only has 47k miles. this has happened the last 4 times pumping gas.

Fuel gushes out when filling.

The vehicle would spit gas out of the filler pipe after the pump would click off. the problem then developed into not letting me put gas in at all without the pump clicking off many times for a small amount of fuel. replacing the tank fixed the problem. this problem has been well documented from 2007-2012 but jeep only recalled or extended the warranty on models 2007-2008.

Fuel sprays out when filling.

Fuel spillage during fill up, happens every time. fuel gushes out forcefully upon tank reaching its capacity.

The fuel evaporation port on my gas tank which has a hose that connects to the evap canister broke for no reason. i could frequently smell gasoline outside the rear of the vehicle & being near the muffler was afraid of a fire. also since these fumes are vented back into the engine i had rough idle, lower economy, & was polluting the atmosphere. also, the only solution offered by dealer was to replace the entire gas tank for $900.

Gas spills out when filling up gas tank. tried different gas station same thing. gas pump autoshut off works but gas still backsplash out. has been hahppening

When filling the gas tank, fuel comes gushing out from the filler hole. this happens just as the gas pump clicks off. it spills a large amount of fuel all over the car and me. i would estimate 1/2 cup to 1 cup of gas spills depending on how quickly the gas pump is running. from my research so far this is not recalled and not under warranty. this seems like an extremely dangerous defect that was present and covered for 2007-2008 models. 2010 models need to be looked at and covered. this could be a potentially fatal defect.

When filling up with fuel at the pump, the automatic shutoff on the pump will click off and then a large amount of fuel will come spilling back out of the vehicle and onto the ground. it does this at almost every fill up regardless of the temperature, pump or gas station used.

When pumping gas the gas does not click off and gas spits out all over me and the jeep. i just purchased this used from a ford dealer. i had this same problem with my dodge durango that had a recall by chrysler. i checked and there is no recall on the 2010 jeep wrangler but have researched and it seems to be a common problem with jeeps. there should be a recall on them before someone gets hurt. i filled up at different gas stations. i had other people pump the gas, including the mechanic from the dealership i purchased the jeep at. it did the same thing each time. the only way to avoid it is to not fill up which does not solve the problem.

The jeep was turned off and stopped at the gas station and when filing up with gas the gas pulsates out of the opening and spews out all over jeep and ground. also not sure if related the next day the gas cap code came on.

While filling the gas tank, it will overflow and about a gallon of gas will come out and go all over the ground. it happens at many different gas stations and is a hazard to people and the environment .

While filling the gas tank fuel will spill out of the filler spout. it seems to be under pressure when the tank is almost full....very dangerous...if you do not stop the pump prior to a full tank of gas it will spill out every time

Fuel spills out of the filler port during the refueling process. this condition generally occurs when the fuel tank is filled to the full or nearly full level and the gas pump automatically shuts or clicks off. the fuel splashes on the person fueling the car, the car itself, and onto the ground. this happens repeatedly, not just a single occurrence. have tried different gas pumps, slowing the pump when it gets to almost full, and finally now just not filling up completely due to safety concerns of fuel spilling onto ground/driver/vehicle. date given is most recent occurence, while it has been happening for over 6 months.

Gas spills out of filler neck after the pump clicks off. the vehicle is stationary at the gas pump.
