1. Every time I fill up gas spilld out all over! 2. The gear shift pops out of first gear on a regular basis when taking of from a stop. 3. The emergency brake has stopped working at all! I contacted my local dealership with a recall I received on the under body transmission tunnel shield and they have yet to fix the problem say im on the list its been months!.
When filling up with gas, instead of the pump shutting off the flow of gas, a gush of gas comes flowing out and over the side of the vehicle onto the ground. (I would say at least a 2 cups of gas. ) I originally thought it was the pumps fault until it happened two more times at different stations. I am over the three year warranty (however, way under the mileage) and when I called a Chrysler dealership. They will not accept as a warranty issue. I brought up the fact that many people have been experiencing this and I am very surprised that Chrysler has not issued a recall. They sugguested I call Chrysler and deal with them directly and gave me an 800 number. (which I have been on hold for the past 15 minutes!).

Gas gets too high in the fill tube and it doesn't shut off making a good amount of gas spill over.
When filling my 2008 Dodge Nitro and immediately after the pump shuts off automatically, gasoline suddenly spews out of the filler tube. This has happened repeatedly and multiple gas stations over the last few weeks.
Every time I fill up my 2008 Dodge Nitro with gas, it sprays/overflows fuel. I have owned this vehicle for 8 months now, and this has been happening every time I fill up since the beginning. This happens at every gas station and has happened in multiple states. This is a hazard to me, to the people around me, and to the environment. This is a severe fire risk, not to mention the vapors I, and the people around me, inhale each time I need gas. The continued gas spillage has faded the plastic fender flare. This happens if it is filling automatically or if I am holding the handle. The handle clicks off, and after about 1-2 seconds, there is a rush of gas back up toward me. I have been covered on multiple occasions, and there is approximately 2-3 cups of gas spilled onto my vehicle and then onto the ground every time I fill up. This is an extreme hazard which has been caused by faulty manufacturing and should be remedied by the manufacturer either voluntarily or via a recall.
Currently own a 2008 Dodge Nitro. The past 3 times I have filled it with gas, the gas comes back spewing out even though the pump has shut off. This happened at 3 different gas stations and different times of the day. Each time gas got on me and my clothes. Each time my car is covered with gas as well as the ground. This should be considered a recall! this is a pretty serious situation and after doing some research on the internet it has definitely happened to other people with the same car. One little spark could light me and my car on fire as well as a gas station. I have called my dealer and am awaiting resolution.
Each time I fill up my 2008 Nitro the gas pump clicks off and then gasoline burps back out of the filler pipe in a quantity that is dangerous.
Gas overflow when fueling vehicle, after gas nozzle clicks off, gas pours out of fill tube. 2008 Dodge Nitro, this has happened last 4 fill ups.
Gas overflows upon fill up. Has happened each fill for 3 weeks since I bought a used 2008 Dodge Nitro stx.
When putting gas in my 2008 Dodge Nitro at the end of the fill gasoline will erupt from the fill spout and spill over the car and the ground.
