The contact owns a 2006 Jeep Liberty. The contact stated that the vehicle would not start and there was an abnormal fuel smell. The vehicle was towed to an auto shop for diagnostics. The technician stated that the fuel pump would have to be replaced. After the fuel pump was replaced, the check engine warning light illuminated on the instrument panel. The contact stated the front driver side window and the rear driver and passenger side window would not open. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 72,000.
For the last 2 years the gas tank belches fuel every time if the tank is filled up. I never top off the tank but by the time the automatic release on the fuel pump shuts off about 1/2 second later several ounces of fuel pour out of the gas tank and down the side of the Jeep and onto the ground. It seems like a major safety issue and there are hundreds of complaints online. Is there a recall or investigation for this problem?.
I have a 2006 Jeep Liberty limited with approximately 88,000 miles on it. Recently I started to experience a problem where the fuel pump nozzle does not shut itself off automatically when my fuel tank is full. The first time it happened I thought this was an issue with the fuel pump at the station, but it has happened at multiple stations and every time I pump fuel. I've just been trying to pay close attention and stop the fuel flow before my tank gets full. This overflowing fuel is going to damage the paint on my vehicle and is a fire hazard at the gas station, not to mention the fact that the fuel has spewed onto my shoes and clothing on more than one occasion. The problem seems to be progressing now, as yesterday when I went to get fuel, the nozzle spewed immediately upon beginning to pump (and the tank was nearly empty as my fuel level indicator had just gone off). The only way I could get fuel into my tank was to manually control the flow with the nozzle so that it went into the tank very slowly. I have contacted my Jeep dealership and have a service appointment later this week. I've read about a lot of others with this issue, and it sounds like they will need to replace my fuel tank.
Every time I fuel up, the fuel pump does not stop and overflows. I have to guess when it's full and stop the fuel pump manually.
Whenever I fill up the gas tank with gas the filler tube over flows with gas and does not allow the fuel pump to cut off automatically. This has happened since the vehicle was new. Gas gushes out of the filler tube and down the side of the vehicle and creates a large pool of gasoline on the ground. This action can be easily repeated. One must stop the fuel pump before the tank is full and not allow the pump to cut off automatically.
