I TOOK MY JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP TO TAKE A LOOK AT GAS TANK SENSOR, I HEARD THAT WAS A RECALL, EVERYTIME I FILL MY TANK, THE GAS NOZZLE DOESN'T STOP AND YOU SEE GAS SPILLING ALL OVER. THE DEALERSHIP SAID HE FIXES AS ITS SHOWN ON THEIR DIGNOSE. HAVEN'T DROVE SINCE THEN, TODAY I DROVE IT AND IT HAD 1/4 GAS IN THE TANK, I STOPPED BY THE GASTATION TO FILL UP THE TANK, FOUND OUT THAT IT DOESN'T ALLOW ANY MORE GAS IN THE TANK AND GAS SPILLING ALL OVER AGAIN, THE GAS GAUGE IS WORKING ALONG WITH FUEL WARNING SIGNAL, ITS SO WEIRD AND UNSAFE.

WHILE TRYING TO PUT GAS INTO MY 2007 JEEP JK WRANGLER UNLIMITED, FUEL STARTED TO POUR OUT THE UNDERSIDE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO THE MECHANIC AND THEY INFORMED ME THAT A LARGE CRACK WAS ON THE FILLER NECK THAT IS ATTACHED TO THE FUEL TANK. THEY ALSO INFORMED ME THAT DUE TO THE DISCOLORATION OF THE PLASTIC INLET IT HAS BEEN LEAKING FOR A WHILE. UPON REMOVING THE TANK, THEY ALSO DISCOVERED THAT THE SPRING INSIDE THE NOZZLE IS HIGHLY DEFECTIVE. APPARENTLY, THE SPRING IS SUPPOSED TO PUSH BACK ONCE THE FUEL TANK IS FULL. AS A JEEP OWNER FOR YEARS I?M EXTREMELY ANGRY THAT AN INEXPENSIVE PART MADE POORLY COULD OF COST THE LIFE OF MY FAMILY, FRIENDS AND ANYTHING WITHIN RANGE IF A FIRE ERUPTED. CHRYSLER SHOULD RECALL THESE DEFECTIVE TANKS IMMEDIATELY. I CAN PROVIDE PHOTOS OF THE FILLER NECK AND NOZZLE. *TR

WHILE FUELING MY 2007 JEEP WRANGLER WHEN THE PUMP CLICKS OFF GAS POURS OUT OF MY TANK AND HAS SPLASHED ALL OVER ME SEVERAL TIMES. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND HAPPENS EVERY TIME I GET GAS. THE CAR AND MYSELF CAN CATCH FIRE. THIS CANNOT WAIT UNTIL A TRAGEDY OCCURS. *TR

JK/ GAS TANK OVERFLOWS/WILL NOT SHUT OFF. ON MORE THEN 1 OCCASION THE GAS TANK ON MY 2007 JK JEEP WRANGLER HAS FAILED TO SHUT OFF WHEN FILLING UP AND SPILLS ALL OVER THE REAR OF THE JEEP AND THE GROUND. 2 JEEP DEALERS IN FAIRFAX, VA HAVE TOLD ME THAT I NEEDED A NEW TANK. I HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY WITH INTERCONTINENTAL WARRANTY SERVICE (IWS) AND THEY REFUSE TO AUTHORIZE THE WORK. I AM IN THE PROCESS OF CANCELING THE WARRANTY AND FILING A COMPLAINT AGAINST THEM. A OF RIGHT NOW I STILL NEED A GAS TANK BUT CANNOT FIND ONE ONLINE, SEEMS ONLY DEALERS HAVE THEM RIGHT NOW FOR 2007-2010 MODEL YEARS. ALSO THE SOFT TOP LEAKS VERY BAD AT THE TOP OF THE DOOR/ROOF PILLARS BOTH SIDES WHEN IT RAINS. ALSO HAVE HAD THIS IN TO THE SAME 2 JEEP DEALERS AND BOTH SAY I NEED A TO AS IT IS A DESIGN FLAW. BOTH HAS LEAK SPECIALISTS LOOK AT IT AND REPLACE HEADER AND DOOR SEALS BUT STILL LEAKS JUST AS BAD. AS A LIFE LONG JEEP OWNER I AM COMPLETELY FED UP WITH THE JEEP BRAND. A LITTLE SEARCHING ON THE INTERNET TELLS ME THAT THESE 2 ISSUES ARE WELL KNOWN BUT THAT JEEP IS REFUSING TO ADDRESS THEM SO PEOPLE LIKE ME HAVE TO PAY MORE MONEY OUT OF POCKET. THESE 2 ISSUES ARE CLEARLY SAFETY RELATED, GAS SPILLING OUT AND HITTING A HOT EXHAUST IS A MAJOR PROBLEM, THE SAME WITH WATER GETTING INTO THE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM. *TR

Higher-selling and older vehicles accumulate more reports. Counts are not failure rates and are not directly comparable between vehicles that sold in very different numbers.
