1 Fuel Pump problem

Failure Date: 10/28/2011

The fuel tank appears to not properly vent whiling refueling which causes the fuel pump to kick off and fuel to be ejected from the tank while refueling. Even when you try to refill the tank very slowly the problem is still present. Some fuel stations don't have pumps that operate at a slow enough flow rate for me to be able to fill the tank. It takes about 15 to 20 minutes to fill the 20 gallon tank.

2 Fuel Pump problem

Failure Date: 10/15/2010

My 2005 Jeep Liberty limited 4wd overflows its fuel tank every time it is refueled. The vehicle has less than 30,000 miles on it, and this problem has appeared consistently each of the last 5 times I have refueled. The fuel will continue to fill and then overflow the tank unless manually stopped. The problem occurs regardless of where the fueling occurs; any fuel pump causes the problem. The problem must lie in the fuel tank system of the vehicle itself.
