Fuel overflow problem. It happens every time I fill up the gas tank.

- Temecula, CA, USA

Every time I fill the fuel tank it will overflow quite profusely. Not just a trickle, but more like a quart or more. Not only is this manufactured defect a COSTLY inconvenience, BUT A POSSIBLY DANGEROUS SITUATION. Not to mention stinking like gasoline when I arrive at my destination, which was Sunday church service the last time. Research has shown me there has been recalls for this issue on jeeps very near my vehicle's "birthday". I grew up pumping gas for my parents at the station, but now I have to be sure there is a "splash zone" of at least 5 feet of distance from the filler so innocent bystanders don't get splattered. I have been verbally attacked numerous times at the pump because of this manufacturer defect. Now I know perfection can be unattainable, lots of quirky parts in vehicles today, but i can honestly say this situation alone is keeping me from being an advocate of what i once thought was a great buy. I have replaced the steering damper that created the now legendary death wobble, and personally dealt with evap system part failures. Repairing those issues myself doesn't bother me, but the fuel tank is another story. This is something that should absolutely be addressed. If Im required by the government to pass an e-check so minimal fumes don't enter the atmosphere, then this needs to be replaced/corrected IMMEDIATELY because all these jeeps are dumping fuel on the ground all over the world! Also Ive learned about a mopar replacement filler tube with a check valve built in. I feel this issue should be recognized as a recall, or exposed for the environmental hypocrisy it creates.

When filling my 2009 Jeep Wrangler with gas, the fuel overflows - often so much that it spills onto the ground. No matter how slowly or cautiously I pump the fuel, it still overflows. This has happened on multiple occasions. It is my opinion that there is a malfunction in the vehicle. I have researched the matter and found that apparently I am not the only one having this issue. I ask that this be deemed a recall - and that the company pays to fix it. This malfunction could cause a fire and other issues related to gasoline exposure.

Any time you fuel this vehicle the fuel gushes out of the filler neck. We have tried several different fueling stations. Different times of the day and night. Nothing changes, the fuel still blows out. Sometimes even if you pump slow it will still spew back out. Not every station has the rubber splash guards on their nozzles. The reason this is a danger is very obvious. Gasoline has a low flash point, not to mention the health risk of the vapors. One freak spark unrelated to me fueling could have deadly consequences. I spoke to jeep headquarters about this issue. They refused to give me the lot number for the faulty fuel tanks. The fuel tanks that had issues was on 2008 and earlier jeep Wranglers. Our jeep was manufactured in 2/2009 and from what I have gathered uses the exact same tank as the 2008 and earlier tanks back to a certain year. Is it to far fetched to believe that the tank installed could be faulty, just like the earlier ones. Just so we are clear this has been occuring since we purchased the jeep and continues to. I would like jeep to replace the tank or the valve in the tank. They could install the retro fit repair. I don't feel as an owner we should have the Burden of replacing the tank.

There is no safety stop on the fuel line. Every time the tank is filled it overflows spilling gas everywhere. This is not new, but finally reporting it. There are tons of people complaining about this on the internet

While fueling the pump will automatically click off, but fuel will spill out onto the vehicle, myself, and the ground, huge safety and environmental concern.

Cracked fuel tank, found through a smoke test

- Fort Worth, TX, USA

First time filling the tank up, and out of no where gas ejected out on to me and would not stop. I had to grab the gas nozzle out to get it to stop. I was covered in flammable gas, small puddles on the ground and the gas that I couldnt get off the plastic bumper and fender, ruined them. Not to mention waisted $5 in gas and embarrassed when I had to tell the manager of the spilled gas.

When gassing up and the tank is full, fuel frequently squirts out and runs down the side of my vehicle onto the ground. Several times it has splashed on my clothes, shoes, and skin. This is a safety hazard. This started in about 2011 and has continued off and on since. It is more prevalent in cold weather.

When refueling the pump always stops even if empty, this makes it very hard to know if it's already full or if it's just acting up. This has been happening for a couple years now, and it happens 100% of the times I refuel. I have read in forums this is a very common issue and some years have been fixed. This is a potential fire hazard since fuel spills are very common with this problem.

When using a gas pump to auto-fill the tank, the pump shuts off and the tank overflows some of the fuel onto the paint on the outside of the 2009 Jeep Wrangler. Doesn't matter what gas station I go to, the style of nozzle, or the angle the nozzle is used at. It over fills every time. This Jeep Wrangler X was recently purchased in November 2017 with 90, 961 miles. Started early November. I recently sold my 1997 Jeep Wrangler which I had driven over 178,523 miles in the 18 years of ownership never experienced this problem not even once. Initially I thought it was operator error until I read the compliants on the internet from other Jeep owners and the NHTSA website.

Constant overflow while fueling (~80% of time). I do not use anything but reg grade fuel. I do not hold the fueling hose. It does not matter if I put the hose in all the way or slightly out. It typically overflows about 1/2 to 1 pint creating a fire hazard and an environmental issue

Whenever I fill my tank up, the gas spills over onto the car, the ground, and myself. About a quart spills over so could be potentially very dangerous.

- Severna Park, MD, USA

Each time I fill my Jeep with gas there is a gushing of gas at the end of fill up. Each time I fill it up the Jeep doesnt want to take the gas either. It was when the vehicle is stationary at a gas station.

- Keller, TX, USA

When filling tank, fuel overflows every time. Have tried to decrease flow towards the end, but nothing seems to work. Seems like a huge safety issue with fuel spilling on every fill up.

Same issue as with 2007-2008 Jeep jk fuel spits out when done fueling, no changes to fuel system so why only have a recall on 07-08 and not all Jeep jk?
