1 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2004 Jeep Liberty

Failure Date: 09/02/2019

On sept. 2, 2019 while driving on route 23 our 2004 Jeep Liberty's gas tank broke off and we dragged it down the road with gas pouring out, another driver alerted us that the gas tank was dragging. If a spark happened we would have been set on fire. The police and fire department were called and our car was towed to a repair shop. I saw a recall #18v278000 online today 09/05/19, we were never notified of this recall.

2 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2007 Jeep Liberty

Failure Date: 08/01/2019

Fuel overflows & doesn't shut off when full! every time we put fuel into the car, it will not allow the pump to shut off when the tank becomes full-no matter how slow one fills the tank, it creates a fuel burp and pours gasoline out & down the vehicle. All of us, including our young driver, need to be extremely cautious when at a gas station. Very very unsafe could be very dangerous!.

3 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2002 Jeep Liberty

Failure Date: 06/17/2019

I see there are two recalls in my vehicle - one for the air bags and second for the fuel tank having possible leakage. I live on an island and the closest dealer/repair shop that could do work is in another town that would take a week long trip to get there by boat, etc. Any suggestions.

4 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2005 Jeep Liberty

Failure Date: 05/27/2019

I have my brother's 2005 Jeep Liberty with less than 100,000 miles. It is a very important vehicle to me as he passed from cancer. To date I have filled the car 3x and every time I get a gas gusher coming out of the tank. The last time I was extra careful and still ended up getting gas all over the car and myself. Now I try to estimate gallons so it doesn't spray out and I stand off to the side. 600. 00 is a lot of money to spend for a new fuel neck replacement. Obviously not everyone is reporting this as they are trying to fix it themselves. Try googling this on the internet. This is not a safe situation, although gas on the outside dissipates quite quickly. One spark and the gas station could be toast. I am very leery of Chrysler & Dodge gas tanks, thankfully my magnum which started acting up had a lifetime warranty on the fuel tank, which Dodge is not very quick to point out. My magnum just started dying after it was filled up, fixed now I hope. Hoping you can come up with a re-call for these Jeeps. Very disappointed in the fueling up issues.

20 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2008 Jeep Liberty

Failure Date: 11/01/2016

The fuel tank support rusts out from the inside to a point that it seems very unlikely it would be structurally sound in the event of an accident. It is very concerning that this would not puncture the tank and be a cause of fire instead of protecting the tank as it is marketed to do. There has been no incident yet, but after an accident would not be the time to find out. Chrysler has reviewed this and will not take action.

26 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2010 Jeep Liberty

Failure Date: 07/30/2016

It will burp gas back of the filler nozzle. Tried different gas stations. Tried different types of pumps. On automatic fill-up it will cut off, then a big burp of gas spews out of the filler nozzle. Happens mostly in the cool weather, randomly in high temps (80f+). Dealer inspected said they could find no problem. . . Told me the only option would be a fuel tank replacement for around 1500 dollars. It is the same symptom the recall/warranty extension for 2008 Jeep Liberty's covered in the x46 lifetime warranty extension; however, this does not cover any other model years and this is happening in other model years. Thank you for your time looking into this matter.

27 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2004 Jeep Liberty

Failure Date: 07/19/2016

I was approaching the onramp,& as I turned on I heard a noise. Thinking I had a flat I immediately pulled off to check my tires upon rounding the rear of my vehicle I saw liquid on the ground upon backing up a step I could see it was my gas tank with the broken brackets. I thank god there were no sparks & that I was not yet @ speed on the interstate. I was terrified as to how close to death I possibly was. Then I find out here that it had happened 1 other time (that's reported here) but not to the manufacturer. Now I'm out of my vehicle while being repaired and out of work till it's fixed. This should never have to come out of my pocket but will because of negligence. I only wish I had though to take pictures before it was loaded & towed to the garage.

There is also an issue with the car staling at a stop or the ignition having trouble catching when I crank the car.

31 Other Fuel System Tank Assembly problem of the 2006 Jeep Liberty

Failure Date: 05/23/2016

Every time I fill the gas tank (parked with engine turned off), gas spews from the filler tube, runs down the side of the car, pools on the ground and underneath the car, creating an extremely dangerous situation. Gas continues to spew out and all over the area until I desperately grab the gas pump nozzle handle and manually disengage it! I now never can depend upon auto shut-off!! I have to manually operate the pump nozzle, not take my hand off it, listen to the gushing tone sound as the tank nears the full point and shut off the nozzle by hand when I hear the gas getting ready to spew all over the place!! this is so dangerous!!!!! over the course of several years, I thought this problem was just unique to my car but after talking with two other Jeep Liberty owner acquaintances, I discovered they had the same dangerous safety problem with their Jeep Liberty, as well. This is so dangerous. . . . It needs to be recalled and fixed!!! ("when did this happen field below: July 2009 to present").
