WIFE NORMALLY DRIVES JEEP AND DIDN'T TELL ME WHEN THIS STARTED HAPPENING, BUT I THINK HAS BEEN GOING ON NOW FOR MORE THAN A YEAR BUT SHE DIDN'T INVESTIGATE IT ONLINE OR REPORT IT TO YOUR STAFF. THEN SHE WENT OUT OF TOWN FEW DAYS AGO AND WHEN I FILLED TANK ON 10/19/20 IT OVERFLOWED A VERY NOTICEABLE AMOUNT OF GAS ONTO SIDE OF JEEP WHEN USING AUTOMATIC PUMP SHUTOFF NOZZLE AT COSTCO. ONLINE RESEARCH INDICATED FCA WAS AWARE OF THIS DEFECT IN 2007-2008 JEEP WRANGLERS AND TSB ISSUED IN 2011 TO COVER FREE REPAIR OF VALVE, BUT ALTHOUGH THIS IS THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM, COULD NOT FIND RECALL OR TSB FOR 2010 JEEP WRANGLERS. QUICK CHECK ONLINE INDICATES MANY OTHERS WITH JEEP WRANGLERS BUILT AFTER 2008 HAVING EXACT SAME PROBLEM. NEVER HAD A VEHICLE DO THIS BEFORE, BUT IT IS A SERIOUS DEFECT AND SHOULD BE FIXED FOR FREE UNDER A RECALL OR TSB, AS WAS DONE WITH THE 2007/2008 JEEPS.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE AT APPROX 45MPH IN THE RH LANE APPROACHING AN INTERSECTION WITH AN ILLUMINATED GREEN RIGHT-TURN ARROW(MY LANE), A VEHICLE IN THE SAME LANE, TRAVELING SAME DIRECTION, SUDDENLY STOPPED AT THE GREEN LIGHT AT THE INTERSECTION. I IMMEDIATELY APPLIED HARD PRESSURE TO BRAKE PEDAL, ONLY TO HAVE IT SLAM STRAIGHT TO THE FLOOR-BOARD WITH VERY LITTLE BRAKING ACTION. I WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY DOWN-SHIFT AND APPLY PARKING BRAKE IN TIME TO AVOID COLLISION WITH STOPPED VEHICLE. I CAREFULLY DROVE VEHICLE TO MY HOME, APPROX 3 MILES FROM INCIDENT INTERSECTION. UPON INSPECTION I NOTED BRAKE MASTER-CYLINDER EMPTY (IT WAS TOPPED-OFF TO "MAX" LINE WHEN CHECKED EVENING PRIOR), AND HYDRAULIC FLUID SPRAYED ALL-AROUND RIGHT (PASSENGER)-SIDE FRONT INNER WHEEL AND PUDDLED/DRIPPING AT BANJO-BOLT. YOU-TUBE RESEARCH FOUND A SIMILAR SITUATION WITH A JEEP 2 MODEL YEARS OLDER THAN MINE.

I REPLACED THE LEFT BRAKE HOSE ASSEMBLY AS WELL, AND FOUND NEARLY AS-SEVERE CORROSION ON THE METAL CRIMP-ON FITTINGS THOUGH NO LEAKAGE HAD OCCURRED FROM THERE DURING THIS INCIDENT. SEE ATTACHMENTS FOR DIGITAL PICS TAKEN THROUGHOUT THE REPAIR PROCESS, AND EXCERPTS FROM THE MAINTENANCE LOGBOOK I MAINTAIN ON THIS VEHICLE.
