2004 Jeep Liberty. Consumer writes in regards to gas tank could explode if hit from rear and trailer hitch needs to be installed to protect gas tank. The consumer had the hitch installed, by a company that was recommended by Chrysler. However, several days later, the consumer received a call from Chrysler saying the hitch that was installed was the wrong one, and he would not be getting reimbursed. Also, the power steering pump failed.

Every time I go to the gas station and fill up my tank, the pump doesn't shut off and it spill about a cup full of gas. Also after some research there are many other Jeep owners that are dealing with the same problem!!!.

My complaint is actually about NHTSA! in June of 2013, NHTSA petitioned Chrysler to recall (recall number n46) Jeep Liberty vehicles including model years 2002 - 2007. According to Chrysler customer service, my 2006 Jeep Liberty is included. Apparently, there is a risk of fuel tank puncture, and subsequent fire in the case of rear-end collision. Chrysler, after initially refusing to issue the recall, caved in to NHTSA pressure. When I spoke with Chrysler today, five months after they agreed to the recall, they indicated that they are waiting on NHTSA reviews and approval of Chrysler's recall proposal to install a trailer hitch in under-equipped vehicles, in order to strengthen the rear end of the vehicle and prevent gas tank punctures in the event of a low-speed rear-end collision. It seems counter intuitive that NHTSA would pressure a manufacturer to issue a recall, and then hold up the process of repairing affected vehicles when the manufacturer finally agrees. If this alleged vehicle defect actually presents a safety hazard, why allow five months to pass without action?.

Was putting after the pump shut off, gas came pouring out of the tank down the side of the Jeep. This is the maybe the sixth time this has happened to me, but looking on the internet this is a very common problem. You would think Jeep would recall.

Have not been able to fill up my gas tank completely since this past fall. I purchased this vehicle August 2013 from an authorized Chrysler/Jeep dealership. Please note that this is not user error at the gas pump. I have owned at least a few different cars and understand how to use a gas pump. I've filled the Jeep Liberty at least a dozen different gas stations and it does it every time and the gas sensor at the pump will not shut off. I have had no choice but to have westbury Jeep service center on January 15,2013 to look at the vehicle since the gas overflow is a potential hazard.

This has been happening for some time. When I fill up, the gas tanks gushes out gas when it is full. This happens almost every time that I fill up with gas. It seems extremely dangerous as there is enough fuel that spills on to the ground below the Jeep. I have replaced every regulator in my Jeep's windows. They go out all of the time. The last one went out while driving and the window crashed down and scared me to death.

Every time gas is put into the tank , the gas will be forcibly blown back out of the filler neck and back onto the person holding the gas nozzle!! dozens of cases across the country have the same occurrence. This is a dangerous hazard that the public and Chrysler should be made aware of. Thank you.

2002 Jeep Liberty. Consumer writes in regards to several recall notices and unsatisfactory customer services at dealership. The consumer stated he received a recall in the mail. However, the dealer claimed to have no knowledge of the recall. The consumer received another recall a month later, regarding the fuel tank, which stated the repairs were supposed to begin in July 2013.

Fuel gushes out of tank when filling, splashing gas all over operator, vehicle, and ground. A lot of gas splashes, enough to be very dangerous. Even not ignited gas on the ground can be slippery and cause a fall. This is extremely unsafe, a fire and explosion hazard, unhealthy, an environmental hazard and a waste of valuable resources. There is no way to avoid the occurrence as it is not related to the speed of filling or whether or not you have the nozzle handle locked (most stations here have removed the locks anyway).

2005 Jeep Liberty. Consumer writes in regards to vehicle fuel tank issues. The consumer stated the vehicle was spilling gas, every time she filled the tank.

The contact owns a 2006 Jeep Liberty. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable time frame to provide the parts for NHTSA campaign numbers: 13v252000 (fuel system, gasoline, structure) and 18v278000 (suspension). The dealer (superior Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram fiat, 120 us-158 byp, henderson, nc 27537, (252) 654-0161) was unable to specify when the parts would be supplied from the manufacturer after the contact had called several times. The manufacturer indicated that the parts were unavailable and on a national backorder. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.

I am writing in regards to a safety recall on my 2004 Jeep Liberty that was issued in June 2013. The recall exists as the fuel tank can rupture and cause fires in rear-end collisions. The NHTSA did a three year investigation that showed 51 people died in fiery crashes in Jeeps with gas tanks positioned behind the rear axle. To alleviate this problem Chrysler is to install a tow hitch free of charge. I have made numerous phone calls to my local Chrysler dealership and then also contacted Chrysler at their 1-800 number. Despite these phone calls no one could provide an answer as to when this potential life threatening problem would be fixed. About two weeks ago I received a letter in the mail from Chrysler group llc informing me of the recall (as if I was unaware) and that the parts required are currently unavailable. So this recall has been in effect since June and there is no clear date that my vehicle will be equipped with a tow hitch to prevent a fiery crash. It is apparent through newspaper articles that Chrysler has been reluctant to issue the recall and it is speculated that they did so as to not hurt their image and finances. Also to avoid a public relations nightmare and being forced to provide the recall after potential public hearings with witnesses providing details of deadly crashes involving Jeeps. It is appears that Chrysler is trying to avoid this repair due to cost. It has been seven months since the recall and not a single vehicle has been repaired. It is also unknown when the repairs will be made as the parts are unavailable. I question the integrity of Chrysler in regards to this recall and ask that you please look into this situation. This recall could potential save lives and it appears that this is not being done in order to save money. Thank you for your time and consideration. Updated 01/30/14.

This is common problem with the Liberty, basically the fuel overflows from the tank neck when filling it at the gas station. . Read more...

Whenever I fill the gas tank the gas pump clicks off when the tank is full, but gas surges up the spout and dumps on the ground. This has nothing to do with the type of gas (premium or regular, or ethanol or no ethanol) or the setting on the pump handle (fast or slow). This is a fire, explosion risk as well as an environmental problem. I really don't expect you to do anything until after people are hurt or killed, but when that happens I want to be able to say "you knew about the problem, and didn't care".

Fuel tank inlet check valve not stopping gas from surging out of the tank and all over the ground/person/car. This occurs even after the gas pump as 'clicked off' and is not filling the tank. Chrysler as extended the warranty on model year 2007 & 2008 Jeep libery's, but this is a 2006 with the same problem.
