Two problems related to tank filler pipe and cap have been reported for the 2008 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
I have a 2008 Jeep Wrangler unlimited sahara. In the past 30 days it has started to flow fuel out of the filler each and every time I fill the gas tank, regardless of the station or pump. It literally gushes out as the fuel pump stops. This is an incredible safety hazard. I'm told by the dealer that there is a flaw with the overflow vent filter and as this component is integral to the tank, that the entire tank must be replaced. With all the exact issues on the NHTSA website, it's unbelievable that there has not been a recall. I'm also now concerned about the so-called "death wobble" issue that I've now read about on the site.
The contact owns a 2008 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that while adding fuel to the vehicle, he noticed that the filler neck would "spit" gasoline out when the vehicle was almost full. He noticed the problem every time he added fuel to the tank. He called the dealership and was told about technical service bulletins but that they were for vehicles under warranty. The vehicle had not been inspected or repaired at the time of the complaint. The contact had not called the manufacturer to-date. The current mileage was approximately 39,000. The failure mileage was approximately 34,000.
