My 2005 Jeep Wrangler unlimited has an overfilling problem every single time I fill up at the gas station. It doesn't matter if I use the lowest setting on the gas pump or if I manually use as little pressure as possible, it overfills every single time and gas pours out of the fill spout running down the body of the vehicle, on my hand, on my clothes and on the ground. This is an extremely dangerous problem and affects the 2003-2006 Jeep Wrangler series.

39 Gasoline Fuel System problem

Failure Date: 01/19/2011

2005 Jeep tj while filling does not click the pump off and therefore leaks and spilss out all over the road causing an epa nightmare. Happens all the time when filling up. There is a known problem with Jeeps doing this but the government pays no attention. Maybe the epa is too busy worrying about something else other than fuel spillage and seepage into water supplies. . . ?.

2005 Jeep Wrangler ejects gasoline at every fill-up. After the pump clicks the vehicle filler neck shoots out a considerable amount of fuel (aprox 1cup +). On a windy day about a month ago, the fuel came out with enough force to go all over the vehicle, me, and onto my face. The problem is consistent and causes a substantial amount of fuel to spill out at every fill-up.
