For the last 2 years the gas tank belches fuel every time if the tank is filled up. I never top off the tank but by the time the automatic release on the fuel pump shuts off about 1/2 second later several ounces of fuel pour out of the gas tank and down the side of the Jeep and onto the ground. It seems like a major safety issue and there are hundreds of complaints online. Is there a recall or investigation for this problem?

Car starts accepting gas then you can hear it gurgle back up while it shuts off the pump. It doesn't matter how far in or out the hose nozzle is either. It is taking forever to get gas into my car most of it ends up spilling out over the top of the gas door. This is utterly ridiculous and from the web I see I am not the first person dealing with this issues and of course paying for this problem out of my own pocket.

I received a recall N46/NHTSA 13V-252 in January that said I would need to contact my dealer in order to get the fuel tank leakage issue fixed. I have called dealers repeatedly and they keep saying that they do not have the parts available. It has been five months and that is too long to wait. The recall notice stated that if the dealer fails to remedy this defect wihin a reasonable time, I may submit a written complaint to this website. That is what I am doing now. Please let me know what further steps I need to take to ensure the safety of my family while driving this defective vehicle.

Thought I was the only one until I came here...I didn't know it was a place to file a complaint.. if I fill up my car it does not automatically stop.. the first time this happened I mean the gas just spewed everywhere like all over me... on the ground on the car... I just so afraid thought it was a defective nozzle for the gas pump...nope... it was my car. This is very concerning and I can never just fill my car with gas because even when full the gas will just continue pouring.

I filled up at 2 different gas stations about 300 miles apart and the same problem occurred. I set the automatic stop and the pump automatically shuts off. I go to remove the handle about 2-3 seconds later and gas comes spewing out all over the side of the Jeep and onto the ground. There seems to be a reoccurring problem with thousands of Liberty owners. Many people I have talked to tell me that there is no permanent fix for this and I have to live with it. I have owned about 10 different vehicles in my time and not a single one of them ever had this problem. I will not stand for the "there is no permanent fix" bs anymore. This is a design flaw by Chrysler Inc and needs to be addressed as the owners are at risk of injury and the gas stations are at risk of fire and the general public are at risk as well. Something needs to be done by Chrysler, if not I will report them to the better business bureau.
