I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER. EACH TIME I REFUEL THE GAS TANK IT SPEWS GASOLINE ON ME AS WELL AS THE VEHICLE AND THE GROUND. THIS IS A FAIRLY LARGE AMOUNT AND MUST BE A FIRE SAFETY AS WELL AS A HEALTH HAZARD FROM DIRECT SKIN CONTACT. I PURCHASED THIS VEHICLE FROM THE DEALERSHIP USED AND UNDER WARRANTY APPROXIMATELY 8 MONTHS AGO. THIS PROBLEM STARTED ABOUT 2 1/2 MONTHS AGO AFTER WARRANTY EXPIRED. I AM TAKING VEHICLE BACK TO DEALERSHIP ALONG WITH A PRINTOUT OF THE COMPLAINTS ALREADY VOICED OF THE SAME NATURE SINCE THIS APPEARS TO BE A ONGOING PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Sep 29, 2010
WHEN REFUELING, MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER DOES NOT STOP THE GAS FLOW BEFORE THE TANK IS FULL. ABOUT 20-30 OUNCES OF GASOLINE USUALLY BUBBLES OUT OF THE GAS INLET AFTER THE PUMP STOPS, LEAVING A PUDDLE OF GAS ON THE GROUND EVERY TIME. CURRENTLY THE PROBLEM HAS NOT BEEN RESOLVED. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Sep 8, 2010
I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER AND EVERY TIME I GO TO FILL UP MY GAS TANK, THE TANK WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY CUT OFF THE GAS PUMP WHEN THE TANK IS FULL. THIS HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR APPROX THE LAST 15,000 MILES AND I CURRENTLY HAVE 27,000 MILES ON THE JEEP. THE VEHICLE WAS BRAND NEW WHEN I PURCHASED IT. I HAVE THIS PROBLEM AT EVERY GAS STATION I HAVE TRIED SO I DO NOT BELIEVE IT IS A GAS PUMP FAILURE. I HAVE ALSO FILLED OTHER CARS AT THE SAME GAS STATIONS WITH NO PROBLEMS. *TR

EVERYTIME I FILL MY 2008 WRANGLER WITH FUEL, IT SPILLS ALL OVER INCLUDING ME. THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD AS FUEL SPILLS ALL OVER MYSELF AND THE JEEP. I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT STATIONS AND STILL THE SAME RESULT. CHRYSLER SAYS THERE IS NOTHING WRONG BUT I FEEL THIS IS AN ACCIDENT WAITING TO HAPPEN. EXPOSED FUEL IN HOT TEMP WITH THE POSSIBILITY OF SPARKS BY OTHER SOURCES WHILE FUELING. IT STARTED DOING THIS LAST JULY 2009 AND CONTINUES TO THIS DAY. *TR

THE FUEL TANK IN MY 2008, 2 DOOR, JEEP WRANGLER JETTISONS FUEL AT EACH FILL-UP. I'M TOLD THE ROLL-OVER VALVE HAS FAILED AND THAT THIS IS COMMON FOR JEEP WRANGLER JKS. IF THE ROLL-OVER VALVE IN THE GAS TANKS IN MOST MODELS OF A VEHICLE ARE DEFECTIVE, SEEMS LIKE THE MANUFACTURER SHOULD RECALL THE VEHICLES FOR PROPER SAFETY REPAIR. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Apr 20, 2010
I WAS FUELING MY 2008 2D JEEP RUBICON, THE AUTO-FILL LEVER ON THE GAS PUMP CLICK TO STOP FILLING, THEN GAS OVERFLOWED THE TANK. ABOUT 1 CUP OF GAS WENT ALL OVER BUMPER, SIDE OF JEEP AND MY SHOES. THIS HAS SINCE HAPPENED AT EVERY FUEL STATION EVERYTIME. *TR

Fuel system, Gasoline, Mar 14, 2010
EVERY TIME I FILL MY VEHICLE UP WITH FUEL, AT THE END OF THE FILL UP, FUEL COMES GUSHING OUT OF THE FUEL TANK NECK, AFTER THE PUMP HAS PERFORMED ITS AUTO SHUTOFF. AT LEAST 1 - 2 CUPS OF FUEL IS SPILLED ON THE GROUND EVERY TIME THIS OCCURS. THE DEALER SAID THAT I SHOULD IDLE AT THE PUMP FOR 60-90 SECONDS BEFORE PERFORMING A FILL UP. I HAVE ATTEMPTED THIS AND IT HAS NO EFFECT ON THE FLUE GUSHING OUT OF THE TANK. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Mar 13, 2010
WHEN REFUELING, GAS OVERFLOWS FROM FILLER NECK WITHOUT WARNING. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN CONSIDERING GASOLINE SPRAYS NOT ONLY ON THE VEHICLE BUT ON MY FEET AND HANDS AS WELL. I HAVE RESEARCHED THE WEB TO FIND THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE WITH JEEP OWNERS WITH A BROAD RANGE OF MODEL YEAR WRANGLERS. *TR

MY 2008 JEEP JK RUBICON SPEWS GAS AND EJECTS THE GAS PUMP WHEN IT REACHES CAPACITY. IT DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERYTIME, BUT EVERY THIRD TIME. I NOW HAVE TO "GAUGE" HOW MUCH GAS IS IN THE TANK AND STOP IT BEFORE IT FILLS UP. WHEN IT OVERFLOWS, NEARLY A PINT TO TWO PINTS SPEW OUT ALL OVER MY JEEP, GAS STATION FLOOR AND SEVERAL TIMES OVER MYSELF. THIS IS A SERIOUS HEALTH AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. IMAGINE SOMEONE LIGHTING A CIGARETTE AFTER A FUEL UP FORGETTING HE JUST GOT GASOLINE ON HIM. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE ADDING FUEL TO THE VEHICLE, HE NOTICED THAT THE FILLER NECK WOULD "SPIT" GASOLINE OUT WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ALMOST FULL. HE NOTICED THE PROBLEM EVERY TIME HE ADDED FUEL TO THE TANK. HE CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD ABOUT TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS BUT THAT THEY WERE FOR VEHICLES UNDER WARRANTY. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN INSPECTED OR REPAIRED AT THE TIME OF THE COMPLAINT. THE CONTACT HAD NOT CALLED THE MANUFACTURER TO-DATE. THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 39,000. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 34,000.

2008 JEEP WRANGLER X. LATELY WHEN I FILL UP THE GAS TANK IT OVERFLOWS. I'VE HAD THE JEEP SINCE SEPTEMBER 2007. THE LAST 4 FILLUPS THIS HAS BEEN AN ISSUE AT MULTIPLE STATIONS. IT OVERFLOWS IF I HOLD IT MANUALLY, OR USE THE LOCKING MECHANISM ON THE FUEL GUN. IT OVERFILLS EVEN WHEN IT "CLICKS" OFF. THIS HAS TO BE DANGEROUS. I AM NOW IN THE HABIT OF PUTTING IN LESS GAS SO AS NOT TO DEAL WITH GASOLINE SPILLING OUT OF MY TANK AND ALL DOWN MY FENDERS AND BUMPERS. THIS IS NOT SAFE. THERE ARE MANY COMPLAINTS OUT THERE. CHRYSLER SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL FOR THIS PROBLEM. GASOLINE FUMES AND CARS ARE NOT SOMETHING THAT SHOULD BE TAKEN LIGHTLY. *TR

I HAVE A 2008 JEEP WRANGLER THAT OVERFLOWS FUEL EVERYTIME I FILL IT UP. WITHIN A HALF SECOND OF THE PUMP SHUTTING OFF FUEL SPRAYS OUT OF THE FILL TUBE. ALL OVER THE JEEP, ALL OVER ME, ALL OVER THE GROUND. EVEN IF I DECREASE THE FLOW TO A TRICKLE IT STILL OVERFLOWS. *TR

2008 WRANGLER 2 DOOR. AT ABOUT 25,000 MILES, STARTED OVERFLOWING WHEN I FILLED UP GAS TANK. I DIDN'T WORRY ABOUT IT TOO MUCH UNTIL I HAD ANOTHER ISSUE AND WENT IN FOR SERVICE AT THE DEALER. THAT IS WHEN I COMPLAINED ABOUT IT. THEY SAID THE SHUT-OFF VALVE INSIDE THE TANK WAS STUCK AND REPLACED THE GAS TANK. 100 MILES LATER, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. DEALER INSPECTED IT AND SAID THERE WAS A FAULTY EMISSIONS VALVE ON THE GAS TANK AND WOULD HAVE TO REPLACE IT AGAIN. *TR
Fuel system, Gasoline, Jan 16, 2010
MY 2008 JEEP WRANGLER SPEWS GAS AFTER THE AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF. I DO NOT TOP OFF AND HAVE TRIED SEVERAL GAS STATIONS. THE GAS PUMPS CLICKS OFF AND 3 SECONDS LATER I HEAR A GURGLE AND ABOUT 2 CUPS OF FUEL VOMITS OUT, RUNS DOWN MY PAINT, PLASTIC BUMPER AND ON THE GROUND. THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS THING. I HAVE TAKEN MY JEEP BACK TO THE DEALER WHO REPLACED THE GAS TANK. THE FIRST FILL UP WITH THE NEW TANK HAD NO ISSUES, FROM THE SECOND FILL UP ON IT SPEWS. *TR
