On September 2, 2015 I brought my 2006 Jeep Liberty in to a dealership, benson Chrysler, in greer SC for a rear structure reinforcement recall repair. After being left at the dealership for 4.5 hours, I was informed that the recall repair could not be completed due to a large amount of rust on the bolts. I was told by the manager, brad that more than one technician look at the car and determined it could not be repaired. I left the dealership in despair with major concern because the recall involves a chance of the Jeep fuel tank leaking during a rear end collision which could result in a fire. Now as a mother and wife I cannot imagine continuing to drive the vehicle knowing the at any given time I could lose my car and possibly the life of me and my family. Please help me by addressing the issue of how Chrysler plan to handle this recall. I strongly feel it should not be ignored by suggesting me to continue driving a vehicle that pose such a great danger. Your attention is greatly appreciated. Updated 11/02/15.

When filling up my gas tank, the fuel will spit back out. This happens at the beginning, middle, or end of when I'm fueling up. It's more like a geyser of fuel spilling back at me that gets all over me, the car, and most dangerously, all over the ground of the gas station. It happens nearly every time I fill up. It doesn't matter what gas station I am at, or how I'm positioning the hose. This has been happening for over a year, but has gotten increasingly worse recently. Very dangerous, frightening, and bad for the environment.

When filling the vehicle, fuel comes splashing out of the filler neck all over the side of the vehicle and possibly anyone standing too close. I feel this is a huge safety issue as the amount of fuel and vapors splashed out is a big fire risk. Does someone need to be badly burnt or killed before this gets fixed?
