Gas flowing out of tank opening, not shutting off when filling tank up. Has happened several times since having to fill vehicle up 3 times a week. Have tried several gas stations, and the same thing has happened at all stations. It seems the cutoff valve, O ring or something inside the gas opening is not working

My vehicle, 2013 Jeep Wrangler unlimited vent on fire, while I was driving on the highway, in russian federation. I observed the fire, coming from right side of engine compartment.

As I begin to pull into heavy traffic, I hear and see the check engine light warning along with the skid control light illuminating. The car then stalls leaving me sitting in 70 mph traffic. The vehicle starts back up but has a noticeable loss of power. This loss of power continued until I got home. When I finally get home I use a code reader which indicated it was a camshaft position sensor. Code P0344. This could have been a much worse incident as there were no mechanical issues leading up to this.

Following the recall number N28/NHTSA 13V-234 and P61/NHTSA 14V-631 I took my car to potamkin's planet Dodge Chrysler Jeep dealer in miami Florida 33172 on March 13, 2015. They left the car there for one day and they gave me the receipt stating "transmission oil cooler tube - replace power steering tube, inspect transmission oil cooler tube, install protective sleeve and bleed power steering system" and also "heated power side view mirror wire harness - repair install new mirror connectors and water shields." I inspected the car myself after pickup and I noticed none of the repairs were done. I went back to the dealer on March 21, 2015 and I spoke with the service department manager, [xxx]. the car was inspected again and, in fact, no work had been done. They then installed the sleeve in the transmission oil cooler tube and he told me it was the only work needed. So the previous information on March 13, 2015 was fraudulent.

When I go to the gas station to fuel up, I engage the pump lock lever so the pump will fill up and shut off automatically when my gas tank is full. Unfortunately, the fuel pump disengages too late, and an unbelievably excessive amount of fuel will spurt out, cascading down the side of my vehicle. 2 different dealerships have attempted to resolve the issue, yet the problem persists. I have filled up at gas stations across no less than 10 different states - from the West coast to the northeast; with a variety of fuel pump styles; amid various temperatures; yet the only variation is the velocity with which the fuel sprays from the pump.

Was informed in September of a recall on the transmission oil cooler tube coming in contact with the power steering fluid return tube. Causing a loss of fluid, loss of transmission function increasing the risk of a crash. Every time I call they say they have no parts to fix the problem. It has been months and they keep saying the same thing. Safety recall N28/NHTSA 13V-234.
