Other Fuel System Hoses Lines/piping, And Fittings Problems of Jeep Grand Cherokee

When I went to the gas station on rt. 130 in burlington, the attendant told me my gas cap was broken. I didn't quite understand and thought he meant the gas door since it is sometimes hard to get open. I check this morning to see what he meant and my gas cap was laying in the behind the gas door. I have a capless system. No need to twist. I don't know how it broke. I can only say the attendance told me it was broken before he filled up my tank.

I just purchased this vehicle and upon going to the gas station to fill up, when you put the pump handle into the cap less tank, the gas pump does not allow the gas to flow into the tank without holding the pump handle at half pressure. In looking online there is an issue with the fill neck of the gas tank. I have tried this at multiple gas stations originally thinking it was the pump itself, not the vehicle. From my understanding this is a known issue with Jeep as something being wrong with the evap valve in the fill neck.

Safety issue- fire/explosion: gasoline fumes outside of Jeep at 63k miles. Dealer completed smoke test and reported smoke emitted from top of gas tank indicates leak from one of several access ports (filler pipe access, fuel pump access). Dealer cannot confirm without $1,600 fee to drop tank to confirm diagnosis. Dealer felt leak due to faulty design/manufacture/assembly/installation of parts (o-rings/seals/etc. ). I am original owner, retired,on fixed income and have completed all recalls and meticulously maintained vehicle. Dealer suggested I call Jeep corporate (800-992-1997) and ask for "goodwill" repair. After 17 phone calls to Jeep corporate I continue to get: 1) no reply, 2) no callbacks 3) catch 22 stating I must pay for tank removal to confirm diagnosis, repair and determine if parts are defective. Jeep corporate (kenisha -operator kb805) told me today (2-20-18) that decisions was made not to grant goodwill repair due to dealer report that leak probably (not confirmed) due to corrosion around access ports on top of gasoline and warranty has expired. Leaks due to corrosion by "wear and tear" and not faulty design/ manufacture/assembly or installation at factory. I was told I was responsible for full cost of repair, irrespective of potential fires or explosions due to gasoline fumes emitting from corrosion on top of plastic gas talk. I disagree. The design (inaccessibility to top of gas tank0), parts (non-corrosive stainless steel metal retainers, and o-rings), and questionable assembly have resulted in this potential fire and explosion trap. With safety being in the name of NHTSA, I am hopeful investigation and recall address this issue. Thank you.

Gasoline odor/check engine light have had this vehicle machanically checked the smell of fuel on startup with window lowered is overpowering. . The check engine light came on and I had the vehicle plugged into service computer. . Was told too check gas cap/replace. . Which I did. . The gasoline odor is still present and the check engine light is back on. . So new gas cap isnt the problem. There are no leaks anywhere on the engine or at the gas tank, yet the smell of fuel is still present. No gas line leaks. . . We need to make these trucks in America again with american parts. Have always owned Jeeps have a 93 sport in my driveway right now, but this '01 may be my last. . . Literally.

The beginning of July the check engine light came on. Two days after that the check gas cap came on. I bought an after market cap from autozone. The problem didn't go away. I took the car to the dealer and they replaced the purge solenoid and esim module the check engine light was off when we picked up the car. The next day when it was started the check engine light and gas cap light came back on. Took it back to the dealership and they replaced the gas cap. We were told to give it a few days for the system on the car to reset itself. It didn't. So took the car back to the dealership. This time they found a small leak at the esim module that was replaced? told us they were ordering a new gas tank and we could drive the car until it was replaced. Now I hear air escaping out of the fuel tank from the gas cap and it will not accept fuel without being forced into the gas tank.

While driving on the interstate for several hundred miles the gas tank started spraying gasoline up the back of the vehicle and it was determined that the exhaust pipe had melted a hole in the tank and caused the tank to leak. Luckily husband is mechanic and knew what to do to keep vehicle from catching fire. Gas tank and exhaust was replaced by owner before knowledge of faulty gas tank issues. Also later I received a recall to install a hitch and dealer said their were none available. Waited a year for hitch. Think it is unfair that because I was persistent and got recall fixed that my vehicle will not receive the incentives that are currently being offered. I have all documentation of replacing gas tank in 2013 and recall.
