When filling up the gas tank, gasoline routinely back flows as it gets full. This causes gasoline to spill over the fuel filler door and down the side of the vehicle. I have had the vehicle for three years and since 51k miles were on it. This always happens when refueling.
Gas overflows when filling gas tank. When auto fill lever is engaged and tank is full gas burps and overflows spilling on ground.
When filling the vehicle with gas it does not automatically stop filling when the tank is full, which results in gas squirting out of the filler. This happens every time I get gas. Getting gas on myself, my clothes, my shoes and down the side of my vehicle is not on my to do list. Jeep/Chrysler should issue a recall or notice to fix this issue. This issue is a fire hazard and is not safe for whomever is pumping gas.
Everytime, while filling my tank fuel will spill out as the auto shut off engages on the pump. Fuel will spill out onto the ground, my clothes, my hands and the side of my Jeep. I am not attempting to top off my tank when the issue occurs, it happens every time I fill my tank however I hold the handle when the auto shut off engages.
When putting gas in fuel tank in Jeep when filling up to full mark gas comes out of spout and runs down the side of Jeep. This happens every time the Jeep is filled up. At any gas station.
When filling up with gas at California pumps, the nozzle keeps shutting off. It doesn't seem to matter how fast or slow I try to fill, what angle I turn the nozzle, or how deep I enter the nozzle, it keeps shutting off. It takes about 15 minutes to fill the tank, a few seconds at a time.
When filling up the tank, the shutoff does not work at any gas station. The fuel shoots out of the tank. This is highly dangerous and results in me not being able to fill up my vehicle. In addition, I worry that the shutoff would not work in case of rollover.
When filling up the fuel tank the back flow preventer does not work and up to a cup of gasoline will spill out of the nozzle leaving a flammable mess that needs to be cleaned.
Gas tank overflows when filling with fuel.
When filling fuel tank, fuel comes out without warning and spills all over the ground and the vehicle. When adjacent to a hot brake caliper, this could create a fire hazard. About a pint of fuel is spilled with every fill-up. If the operator tries to listen for the fuel to come up the filler to stop, there is a splash and eye hazard.
While filling up at a gas station, the fuel pump did not "automatically shut off" and shot roughly 1/4 gallon of gasoline out on the side of the vehicle and on the ground. Thoroughly cleaned vehicle but still smelt gasoline vapors inside of the cab for 30 minutes with the window down. Did some research and found it is due to the vehicle's icv becoming stuck in the open position, which builds pressure inside of the gas tank, allowing the filler neck to fill with gasoline, and then releases the pressure which propells the gasoline out of the filler neck and onto the ground. In order to fix this proplem I must replace the entire gas tank.
When filling up the gas tank the gas pump automatically switches off when the tank is full (like it does with any other car), however with the Jeep gasoline immediately gushes out of the filler hole. I'd estimate that at least a pint to a quart of fuel spills (and sometimes sprays) out. If someone is standing near-by they will get soaked with gasoline. This doesn't always happen, but seems to be occurring more frequently. Not only is this an inconvenience, it's an environmental hazard and a fire risk. What happens if someone's pant-leg gets soaked in gasoline (as has happened to me) and then they pick-up a mild static charge when entering/ exiting the vehicle (which is not uncommon). Someone is going to get hurt. I cannot let anyone put gas in the Jeep (like my wife). Anyone who is not familiar with this 'quirk' will likely get soaked with fuel at some point when filling up the Jeep.
Filling up my gas tank the tank overflows every time. Tried several gas stations and the same thing happened every time. Talked to other Jeep Wrangler owners and several of them have had the same problems.
I bought this vehicle used and noticed that when filling the tank it actually splashes fuel out of the fill tube every time the gas station nozzle clicks off when full. I have driven this Jeep from north carolina to michigan and used several different styles of nozzles from gas stations in many states. I have attempted to slow the fuel delivery, angle the nozzle differently, stop early and resume filling. The result is always the same. Enough fuel to run down a square foot area on my car and leave a puddle on the ground will always shoot out under pressure. I end up with gas on my car, on me and on the ground. This can not be considered safe for my well being or the environment. I have been told that I need to replace my gas tank, a $1200 repair, to fix the problem.
Regarding my 2005 Jeep Wrangler, this has been an ongoing issue for the past two years or more. Fuel system/tank overflows when attempting to fill the tank. Instead of stopping, gas spews from the fill valve onto the vehicle, ground, and person filling the tank. This is not only unsafe and uneconomical, but bad for the environment and ones health.
I was filling up my gas tank. When tank was full, gas spilled out of filler all over my vehicle and ground before it would stop. After further research, this is a known problem with this year Wrangler.
When filling up the gas tank on my 2005 Jeep Wrangler unlimited, the gas tank over flows and spews gas out down the side of the body and onto the concrete. It leaves a puddle of gasoline about 8 ounces or so.
When refueling and filling up gas tank, the automatic gas pump nozzle does not shut-off in time resulting in gas overflow/spilling. Typically a few cups of gas will spill out before nozzle shuts off the gas flow. Have tried filling at different gas stations, with different pumps, and postioning nozzle in different postions but result is the same and gas overflows. Only way to prevent is to guess how much gas is needed -- then stop pump before tank is full -- then fill remainder of tank with pump on slowest setting.
When filling gas in NJ the gas almost always spits out before the tank is full. Since this is NJ, by law this has full service, so these are professionals that are filling the gas, not me. This is a very dangerous problem that needs to be addressed.
Our 2005 Jeep Wrangler has been overflowing when filling up the gas tank for two months now. There is no warning and the gas spews out of the nozzle/tank. The gas often gets all over my shoes, hands and pants. We are not ignoring the shut off click, since this problem began there hasn't been one. For our own safety we wait until the gas light is on to get gas and then estimate how much gas we need in order to stay gas free. We have researched the problem and it seems to be a common problem with Jeep and Chrysler vehicles involving the inlet check valve, yet they have done nothing.
The contact owns a 2005 Jeep Wrangler 4x4. The contact stated that after filling the fuel tank to capacity, gasoline would spill from the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer for diagnosis where they advised him that the fuel tank was defective and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and offered no assistance. The failure mileage was approximately 52,000. The current mileage was approximately 54,000. The VIN was unavailable.
Each and every time I fill the vehicle up with gasoline, the fuel spills out of the gas tank all over the vehicle. It has ruined my fender flare not to mention the gasoline on the ground as a result of the faulty gas tank. This happens every single time I fill up the vehicle (regardless of the gas station). The only way to stop this is to handle it is in a manual process (not using the pump handle switch to keep pump on), however that still does not stop the fuel from filling out the tank. This has ruined some of my clothes and as mentioned, is creating plenty of pollution every spill. This is a common problem with Wranglers as it is commonly reported in online forums. I am asking for Chrysler's assistance in getting this issue addressed and the fuel tank replaced.
Also fuel tank overflow shutoff valve does not work. When filling up gas tank, fuel overflows on car and person pumping gas every time the tank is filled. Multiple years of Jeep Wranglers were recalled, including many 05's for this same problem.
When filling up the Jeep with gasoline, gas pumps will not click off, and the fuel tank overfills, but sprays out with great force soaking the individual pumping gasoline.
Gas tank overflows when filling. Occurs at both high/low speed autofill. Will overflow at manual fill as well, unless you hear gurgling and shut off pump before overflow.
When filling the fuel tank, the pump will shut off but fuel will spill out of the fuel filler access onto the side of the Jeep and the ground.
When filling gas tank, gas will overflow out of tank, this has happened since vehicle was brand new.
