Gas always back flows out the gas tank to matter how strong filling?gas runs down the fender and into the fender walls and stinks for days.

2 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 04/21/2014

Fuel inlet check valve in gas tank fails, resulting in fill flow back out of the tank when filling vehicle with gasoline. There is no indication when this valve fails except when filling the vehicle, gas comes shooting out, pouring all over the vehicle and the ground. This causes a risk for fire and is an environmental hazard. Unsuspecting consumers may be covered in gasoline if they are standing next to the vehicle at the time of failure.

3 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 12/17/2012

When filling gas tank fuel spits back out of tank all over body and me if not standing away from nozzle. This just started happening just as Jeep warranty ran out. Dealer will not fix problem unless I spend $700 for new tank. I feel this a safety problem that Jeep should fix this problem at no charge. I understand there are safety bulletins out on this problem on several models of Jeeps.

4 Other Fuel System Tank Filling/charging problem

Failure Date: 02/04/2011

When I am filling my gas tank I engage the automatic shutoff on the fuel pump nozzle but the gas continues to flow and spills out. The gas comes out and splashes on the outside of my vehicle. It also runs down the side of my Jeep and onto the ground. This has been occurring a lot more frequently lately. I have to stop the pump, check the gas level by turning the ignition partially on to see the gas gauge. If I don't do that procedure I will have gas on me, my car and the ground. When the shutoff does not stop there is a very strong gas smell inside my vehicle that I feel is very unsafe. This occurs at different brand gas stations.
