My vehicle was stationed at a gas station pump as I was pumping fuel and I wanted to fill up the tank, and so I did. But, right before the pump stopped, the gas spit and spilled out of the tank, ran down the side of my vehicle and on to the floor.

When putting gas in after removing the pump gas comes spraying out all over whoever is filling up the vehicle on the side of my vehicle and on the ground this is a safely issue for everyone in the car the vehicle itself and however is filling the car up as well as the gas station that you are filling up at. It happened today and 1 time before that I have had the vehicle less then a month but see its a common issue and spoken about alot online.

Every time we fill the gas tank... the vehicle will stutter / shake when at idle or die completely at idle like at a stop sign or drive through window. It will restart after about 30 seconds. After it has been driven about 25-40 miles it stops happening. We have paid for total vehicle inspections, we have also paid $1300 to have every single problem a certified Chrysler dealership can find fixed. This did not help the problem at all and the dealership says there is absolutely nothing wrong with the SUV. This is the car our son drives and we are very concerned. We are not in a financial position to replace the vehicle and have now emptied our savings to have the vehicle completely serviced, inspected and repaired.

The driver's seatbelts buckle will get stuck when trying to unbuckle your seat belt it will not release. When pumping gas at any gas station when the gas pump shuts off and then it will spray gas out of the fill hole all over the vehicle and onto the ground no matter if you're pumping fuel slow or fast
- Danville, IL, USA
When filling the fuel tank on this vehicle, it often overflows and dumps gas down the side of the vehicle. There is supposed to be something that prevents this from happening.... are there any known issues with this valve/ or part?
- Eagle Mountain, UT, USA
Every time I fill up my gas tank the vehicle spits a bunch of gas our onto the ground and all over the side of the vehicle. I have been looking this up and have found that its a very common problem with 2007 Aspens. When I called the dealership and told of the problem they stated thats its not a recall item and I have to fix this known issue out of my own pocket

Tsb 14-001-12 fuel splash back. Had my car and they did the repairs. But, its did not fix the problem!!! was told I need a new gas tank. It will cost me, $1,500. Called Chrysler Corp. And was told they do not pay for the tank?? it still is a safety problem with gas spiting out over the car, me, ground. I feel Chrysler should repair the problem, not only on the service bulletin but repair the problem......

Every time I put gas in to my tank (not topping off) fuel gushes back out of the fuel tank and on to the ground after the gas pump shuts off when the tank gets filled more than 3/4 full. It has happened at numerous different gas stations and has happened when I am holding the handle to the gas pump and when the pumps auto shut-off feature is used. Each time that it has happened a large amount of gas has been spilled on the ground, on the side of the vehicle, on my shoes. On numerous occasions the gas station attendant has had to block off the gas pump and come over and clean up the spill. Each time it has happened the vehicle has been stationary and not running.

Summary: Fuel gushed out of the tank and sprayed over the SUV and myself at the gas station when I was refueling my vehicle. This seems to be an ongoing safety problem with this make and model that has not been corrected by the manufacturer.the vehicle was parked at the gas station and I was standing next to it. This has happed every time I fill up for the last year.

When pumping gas if I do not stop before tank is full, the pump will stop and when I pull out of tank, gas erupts out of gas cap. It does not leak, it sprays and overflows crazy. For awhile it was not all the time, now it does it consistently and even though I have checked and purchased new gas caps since that what I was told was issue, it still does. Check engine will be on as well as gas cap message in odometer.

I was putting gas in the car and all of a sudden, the gas if shooting back on me. I was on my way to work and had to go home and change because I had gas all over me, the car and the ground. I don't have money to dry clean my clothing. It is also a hazard and I am not pleased at all.
- Shreveport, LA, USA
Every time I fill my fuel tank, approx. One gallon of gasoline shoots back out. I get covered in gasoline, along with the side of the vehicle and ground, causing a very hazardous situation. Any type of spark could cause me to go on fire, as well as the car and fueling station. This needs to be addressed by the manufacturer. How many people need to complain before someone gets injured or killed. I have personally viewed thousands of the same complaint.

On multiple accounts, gas spits out after fueling. This began approximately around Dec. 2013 and continues to become more aggravating over time as it continues to do this every time I fill up.
