NHTSA complaint #11210215 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

EVERY TIME I REFILL MY GAS TANK IT OVERFLOWS ALL OVER THE GROUND. THIS HAS HAPPENED SINCE I OWNED THE CAR IN 2010 TO MOST RECENTLY YESTERDAY ON 3/12/19. BASED ON PRODUCTION THERE ARE MORE THE 2.1 MILLION JEEP WRANGLERS ON THE ROAD ACCORDING TO PRODUCTION NUMBERS. IT SEEMS THAT THIS IS A DECENT ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE IF IT OCCURS ON MOST IF NOT ALL JKS. ANY JK OWNER I HAVE TALKED TO HAS THIS SAME ISSUE. CHRYSLER SHOULD BE HELD RESPONSIBLE FOR THIS FAILED ASPECT OF THE VEHICLE

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

SO EVERYTIME WHEN I FILL MY TANK ITS OVER FLOWING AND ITS A REALLY BIG SAFETY ISSUES LAST WEEK I WAS GOING TO WORK AND STOPPED IN GAS STATION AND IT OVER FILLED AND MY SUIT WAS ALL GAS AND WENT TO WORK SMELING AS GAS. ALSO THIS CAN BE REALLY DANGEROUS . IN THE PAST UNDER THE SERVICE BULLETIN 14-001-11 I LOT OF JEEP OWNERS CHANGED THIS PART FOR FREE BUT NOW THE DEALERS ARE NOT CHANGING IT ANYMORE AND ASKING ALMOST 1500$ TO FIX THIS ISSUE WAS CAUSED BY JEEP. JEEP NEEDS TO REACALL THIS CARS AND PAY CHANGE THE GAS TANK

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

WHEN REFUELING, REGARDLESS OF FILL LEVEL THE GAS WILL NOT FLOW INTO TANK PROPERLY ON LEVEL GROUND, AND SPEWS OUT ALL OVER THE GROUND/CAR/PERSON. IT WILL NOT TAKE FUEL IN ANY POSITION. IT TAKES ABOUT 10-15 MINUTES TO REFUEL FROM EMPTY. IT WILL TAKE GAS UNTIL THE FILLER NECK FILLS UP AND THEN YOU HAVE TO STOP AND LET IT DRAIN INTO TANK. YOU HAVE TO REPEAT THIS OVER AND OVER AGAIN UNTIL FULL.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH FUEL OVERFLOWING EVERY TIME I GO TO THE GAS STATION. I'VE TRIED DIFFERENT PUMPS AND DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM EVERY TIME. I BOUGHT THE CAR 1 MONTH AGO AND IYHE OVERFLOW HAS BEEN A CONSTANT PROBLEM. AFTER RESEARCHING THIS PROBLEM ONLINE, I SEE THIS IS A PROBLEM FOR MANY JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS. THIS IS A COSTLY AND POTENTIALLY DANGEROUS ISSUE.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

WHEN FUELING THIS VEHICLE THE NOZZLE WILL NOT SHUT OFF CORRECTLY RESULTING IN FUEL OVERFLOWING AND SPILLING OUT, APROX 1/2 PINT WORTH. CAUSE UNKNOWN. SEEMS TO HAPPEN IN THE FALL WINTER AND SPRING BUT NOT THE SUMMER. NOT SURE IF THE TEMPERATURE OR FUEL BLEND HAS SOMETHING TO DO WITH IT. BOUGHT VEHICLE NEW IN '09 AND ITS BEEN DOING IT REGULARLY. JEEP RECALLED '07 AND '08 FOR THIS PROBLEM. '09 HAS THE SAME PROBLEM.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

THERE A FACTORY, MANUFACTUR PROBLEM WITH THE JEEP. WHENEVER I PUT GAS ON THE VEHICLE, IT SPITS OUT THE GAS IF I POUR TOO FAST. I WAS CHECKING ONLINE AND IT STATES THAT CHRYSLER WAS REPLACING GAS TANKS FREE OF CHARGE IF THEY HAD THIS ISSUE. I CONTACTED JEEP AND THEY STATED THEY COULDN'T CHANGE IT BECUASE IT DIDN'T APPEAR IN THE VIN NUMBER. IT IS ALSO A SAFETY CONCERN BECAUSE THE CHECK ENGINE IS ADVISING ME THAT THERE IS A LEAK IN THE GAS TANK.

NHTSA complaint #11057917 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

UPON FILLING THE JEEP WITH GASOLINE (SINCE OWNING THE CAR), NO MATTER THE PUMP/STATION, THE AUTOMATIC STOPPING MECHANISM WILL STOP FILLING WHEN IT IS FULL AND A "BUBBLE" WILL BACK FLOW CAUSING GASOLINE TO SHOOT OUT OF THE CAR AND SOAK THE BUMPER/FENDER/ME. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE AT A GAS STATION COVERED IN GASOLINE SO HAVE TRIED FIXING THIS. I HAVE REPLACED THE EVAP CANISTER BUT AM NOT SURE WHAT TO DO RATHER THAN GET AN ENTIRE NEW GAS TANK.

NHTSA complaint #11041359 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

FOR THE PAST 5 MONTHS I'VE HAD MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON. I READ THE CODE AND IS SAYS "LARGE E VAP LEAK " I'VE REPLACED THE PCV VALVE AND THE E VAP CHARCOAL CANISTER AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS STILL ON. I'VE BROUGHT IT TO A MECHANIC AND THEY DID A SMOKE TEST AND EVERYTHING TESTED OUT GOOD. SHOWING THAT THERE WERE NO PROBLEMS AND TO START WITH THE GAS CAP. I'VE SPENT OVER 100.DOLLARS ON GAS CAPS AND I STILL HAVE THE PROBLEM. I HAVE TO FOR EMISSIONS BY THE END OF DECEMBER. I'VE HAD EVERY RECALL KNOWN TO MAN ON THIS JEEP. I'VE DONE RESEARCH AND FOUND OUT THAT IT COULD BE THE GAS FILLER NECK ITSELF. HOW TO I GO ABOUT GETTING A NEW ONE AND WILL IT COST ME ANYTHING? I ALSO HAVE PROBLEMS WHEN I TRY AND FILL THE TANK. THE GAS COMES FLYING BACK OUT IF I TRY AND FILL IT. ITS GETTING OUT OF HAND AND THE DEALERSHIP WON'T GIVE ME AN ANSWER. I WAS GOING TO GO TO.ANOTHER DEALERSHIP BUT I WANT TO KNOW IF THIS WILL COST ME? I HAVE UNTIL DECEMBER 31 TO GET THIS PROBLEM FIXED OR MY PLATES WILL BE SUSPENDED AND I WON'T BE ABLE TO GET MY PLATE STICKER. WHAT SHOULD I DO?? THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WHILE STATIONARY AND WHILE DRIVING. THIS STARTED IN THE MIDDLE OF MAY.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

AS THE OTHER FILED COMPLAINTS STATE FUEL SPRAYS FROM THE FILLER WHEN THE TANK NEARS FULL. MINE WILL SPRAY AND THERE IS STILL AVAILABLE SPACE FOR 2-3 GALLONS OF GAS IN THE VEHICLE. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. WITH THE VOLUME OF COMPLAINTS AND CONCERNS I SEE ON FORUMS AND OTHER PLACES ONLINE THIS DOES NOT SEEM TO BE AN ISOLATED INCIDENT NOR HAS JEEP MADE ANY EFFORT TO RECTIFY THE ISSUE AT THEIR EXPENSE. I DID NOT IN GOOD FAITH PURCHASE A VEHICLE THAT WOULD RUIN MY FINISH, RUIN MY CLOTHES AND POUR GAS ON THE GROUND. I WOULD HOPE SOMEONE WOULD HOLD THEIR FEET TO THE FIRE AND MAKE THIS ISSUE A RECALL AND NOT JUST A TSB - INFECT MULTIPLE TSB'S FOR THE SAME ISSUE - JEEP YOU HAVE A REAL PROBLEM AND YOU SHOULD FIX IT.

NHTSA complaint #11015407 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

THE FUEL SYSTEM DOES NOT SEEM TO RESPOND TO THE SHUT-OFF MECHANISM, WHICH MEANS GAS SPILLS OUT ONTO THE GROUND, THE CAR AND EVEN THE OWNER. THIS PROBLEM HAS GONE ON EVER SINCE I PURCHASED THE CAR. THIS IS DEFINITELY SOMETHING THAT COULD VERY WELL CAUSE SOMEONE TO GET HURT OR DEAD. I UNDERSTAND THE NHTS HAS 'REVIEWED' THE COMPLAINT AND DETERMINED THAT THERE IS NOT A PROBLEM BUT IT WILL BE FAIR IF THE NHTS COULD RE-OPEN THIS CASE.

NHTSA complaint #11012985 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

GAS TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. INTERNAL FLANGE IS EITHER NON-EXISTENT, DAMAGED, OR INOPERABLE AS THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK. UNLESS I STOP THE FILL SHORT OF 16 GALLONS, GAS SPILLS ALL OVER THE JEEP & USUALLY ALL OVER MYSELF AS WELL.

NHTSA complaint #11004108 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

1. HIT A BUMP GOING 55MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND EXPERIENCED THE DEATH WOBBLE. HAD TO HIT THE BRAKES AND SLOW DOWN IMMEDIATE TO 25 MPH. SUPER DANGEROUS ON THE FREEWAY. THANKFULLY THIS WAS A CITY FREEWAY THAT HAD A SPEED LIMIT OF 55MPH. I DON'T KNOW WHAT WOULD'VE HAPPENED IF I WAS GOING FASTER, SAY ON AN INTERSTATE WHERE THE SPEED LIMIT IS 80MPH. 2. WHENEVER I FILL UP THE GAS ALWAYS OVERFLOW. SO EACH TIME NOW I HAVE TO SQUEEZE THE PUMP GENTLY AND HOLD IT FOR THE ENTIRE FILL UP. 3. THE REAR CALIPER STICKS SOMETIMES.
