Please also check out the statistics and reliability analysis of the 2005 Jeep Wrangler based on all problems reported for the 2005 Wrangler.
Since purchase in November, this vehicle has always shot fuel out of the fuel filler when it reaches a full tank. The gas pump will shut off, but never before it has expelled fuel onto me personally, my shoes, the ground, the filler cap (which is attached to the vehicle by tether), and down the body panel below the filler. This is a serious fire and health hazard for myself and other patrons of the fuel station.
When fueling vehicle tank overflows leaving gasoline on side of vehicle, on self (hands, clothing, shoes, etc. ). Not only is this uneconomical, but unsafe, unhealthy, and environmentally unsound. I originally brought my vehicle in for repair in may of 2010, the dealer claimed the evaporation canister was clogged so they replaced the canister and filter for almost $300. Four months later, in October of 2010, I was having the exact same problem and returned to the dealer. They then claimed the roll over valve was stuck in the open position and I now needed a new fuel tank for almost $800. I declined and was charged $100 for their trouble. I now don't ever fill the tank completely. I have found numerous complaints about this problem online in different forums and now here on this website. I do believe Jeep needs to be held responsible for this obviously ongoing problem.
Each time I top off the tank in my 2005 Jeep Wrangler, the tank overflows and gas runs down the side of my vehicle. I am both paying for gas that is being wasted, and having to deal with the likelihood that the paint underneath my gas cap will soon be ruined.
My 2005 Jeep unlimited rubicon (tj) has overflowed fuel for years. The fuel pump continues to flow until fuel has overflowed the tank and fuel pours onto the ground. Chrysler has covered this under warranty for other year Jeep Wranglers. My year is not covered and the repair is over $900. 00. I was told this is just a malfunction of a valve in the fuel filler pipe. And is caused from a poor design.
