1 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 12/10/2015

The filler neck in failing on my Jeep Liberty 2007 and it is a safety issue! when I fill up my tank with gas, the automatic shut off occurs and when I remove the nozzle, gas spits back at me. At first it would happen after the tank was full, now it is happening after only filling up 2 gal (when on empty!).

2 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 03/04/2014

Same gas problem it overflows tank when filling it. Abs light, esp bas, and traction control lights came on and brakes go all the way to the floor at times. Window regulators keep going out making my vehicle unsafe for me to put my child in. As a single parent I cannot afford to keep paying for costly repairs (mainly the windows) to prevent my child from getting sick in wisconsin winter. I do not have time in my day to sit and wait on repairs to be done. I hate risking frost bite when my window decides to fall and I'm trying to hold it up! it is now snowing and my drivers side window has fallen into my door yet again and it is 2 am and I really hope garbage bags keep it dry!.

3 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 11/13/2013

Every time I fill up my 2007 Jeep Liberty with gas the gas gushes out and all over the car and me even before the tank is full. I never top off so it is not the issue of over filling the tank. I also always fill manually my husband locks the gas pump, it doesn't matter which way we fill up it always spills out before the automatic shut off. . . Sometimes also when the tank is empty it still spills every where too. This to me suggests that there is a design flaw in the gas tank, I have only had this issue with this specific car.

4 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 12/05/2012

This is a complaint about the fuel issue that I have seen on here already. When I go to put fuel into the gas tank, it will not stop at the end as it's filling up. It just overflows. I would say at least a few cups of fuel flows down the side of the Jeep and down into the bottom of the vehicle and wheel well. I know that at some point it will lead to rust/corrosion among many other issues. I really wish this could be looked at and possibly fixed by manufacturer. It doesn't make sense that there are more than enough complaints about the same issue, with no help from the manufacturer. I also have the same problems as others with the windows. The regulator has a piece that breaks and then the whole regulator has to be replaced. This has happened 3 times already on different windows. Lastly, I just recently had an issue where the Jeep wouldn't start. The console lights and guages work fine and it acted like all was well, but the car wouldn't turn over when the key was turned. The result was the ignition switch actuator pin. It has a piece that breaks off and when that happens, the Jeep wont be able start. It isn't an easy fix for someone who isn't mechanically capable. Again, this is an issue that has happened to many people and honestly the manufacturer should do something about this. I could complain about more, but let's just leave it at that.

5 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 11/15/2012

When filling my gas tank to full, the fuels flows out of the filler tube before the pump shuts off, Chrysler acknowledged this by sending out a extended warranty on the effected parts for some owners of 07 and 08 models, but refuses to issues the same to my 07 Jeep Liberty. What gives?.

6 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 03/12/2012

Gas overflows constantly when filling up gas tank. I have to keep a close eye on the gas meter to check when it's on the f. Gas spews out everywhere.

7 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 12/23/2011

On our 2007 Jeep Liberty sport gasoline spews out everytime we fill it if we do not slow the filling up when we think the tank may becoming near full. Sometimes it doesn't matter what you do it spews out gasoline onto the car and the person filling it. We never put it on auto turn off when filling the gas tank because it will spew out. This happens at any gas station in several states. This dangerous to the person filling the tank, to those at the gas station, and to the environment. A safety recall by Chrysler Jeep ought to be put in motion since many others have posted the same problem.

8 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 06/01/2009

Since I have purchased the car used from a dealership, there have been two recurrent problems with it. I have taken it to multiple dealerships and independent mechanics, and none can fix these two issues: 1. ) when filling the gas tank at the gas station, the gas doesn't "shut off" when the tank is filled. The gas spills out over the side of the car almost every time I fill the tank - it does not matter the gas station. I was told to deal with it. 2. ) my driver side front window does not work - it never has. I can roll it down, but when I try to have it close it comes out of track and gets stuck. I have even had it in under warranty to dealerships twice or three times (in addition to two independent mechanics' reviews) in which I was even reimbursed for a fix - that never worked. I have been told by all of these mechanics that there is nothing that can be done. Please note I am estimating when this started, as I cannot seem to remember the date of purchase - it is around the year 2009. I did buy the car used, and it is a 2007. I bought it with approximately 40,000 miles. If needed I can find paperwork for the exact date of purchase.

9 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 08/11/2008

I purchased vehicle Aug 2008 with 7500 miles on it. From that time to current date, fuel spills out when filling the gas tank full. Shortly after purchase, the first of 3 occurrences of the rear windows falling happened. The dealership repaired the first one, the second one I had to pay $100 deductible to have my extended warranty cover the cost to the same dealership. Now the first one is broke again, costing me another $100 deductible. In addition, in the past week I have spent over $600 to replace the ignition switch (vehicle would only start using my remote start) and problems with the check engine light on. I had the spark plugs and coils changed, injectors cleaned, compression checked, intake and carbon cleaner run through engine, and complete oil change. This doesn't include the $600 I spent today for new tires also spent $140 for a new battery last year. The window seal strips on both front windows continue to fall off. . It's not over yet - vehicle is in the shop now for the engine light. Who knows how much it will cost me. Chrysler needs to be accountable for their negligence in putting vehicles like this on the market. I hope a serious injury or fatality doesn't have to happen to get their attention. I haven't even addressed the safety recall notice I recently received. Vehicle currently has 58,000 miles on it.

10 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 04/01/2008

When filling the gas tank the sensor that indicates the tank is full is defective. When it shuts off the gas pump, gas spews out of the tank heavily, getting on auto, ground and person. I spoke to Chrysler about this problem and they said they are aware of this defect but have not issued a recall. They further advised that I would be responsible for all repair expenses if I choose to have the tank replaced. This is a serious defect that Chrysler should fix. The Jeep Liberty has poorly designed gas tanks, they spew gas upon filling and catch fire upon rear impact. Chrysler should be made to correct these issues and stop offering patches, I. E. Hitches that help protect gas tanks in rear contact/impact under 40 mph, that don't protect the consumer from serious bodily harm and/or death. These risk need to eliminated, not pacified!.
