Four problems related to other fuel system tank assembly have been reported for the 2012 Jeep Wrangler. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
When I fill-up my gas tank, the pump does not shut off properly and gas overflows tank, spilling onto rear quarter panel, bumper, and ground surface. At time of fill-up, vehicle is stationary, parking break on, and engine off. This occurs practically every time I fill up gas tank, and occurs at different gas stations. Hence, this problem is not caused by the gas station pumps, and appears to be caused by my vehicle not shutting off pump before gas overflows tank. I researched this online, and it appears this problem is common to Jeep Wrangler owners, and Jeep is aware of the problem, but has not done anything to fix problem. Overall, the overflowing of gas from tank upon each fill-up presents a significant risk to vehicle owners and gas station attendants (note: I live in NJ, and state law required gas station attendants, I. E. , not vehicle owners, to pump all gas into vehicles). I believe Jeep should do something to correct this problem, and understand that they initiated a voluntary recall for 2007 to 2009 Jeep Wranglers, but not later models.
Gas tank crack leaks fumes, also the transmission pops out while driving and dealership would not fix under warranty because they said it didn't happen when repairman test drove it. Now its completely blown out does not work has 36,700. Miles on it 700 miles past warranty and one year pass warranty. These are two defective parts and either could run you off the road and gas leak blow up your car. My guess is these parts are made in china. We all have to pay for this with our safety and our lives in some cases.
I bought this Wrangler on 5-30-2015. The first time I took it to fill up the gas tank, I was exposed to the fact that the tank does not shut off and overflows all over the Jeep (and me). This has happened everytime we go to fill up, to where we have to watch the fuel level on the instrument panel to make sure it does not get all the way to full. This indeed happened again just a week ago Sunday when we went to fill up and I was speaking with a gentlemen who had just bought his Jeep and I was talking to him about his and if he has had issue with his gas tank overflowing. As I was talking to him yep, you guessed it, it overflowed. Now, I read today that Chrysler has said that it has to do with the type of fuel you put into the tank?? really??? so I have put in anywhere from 85, 87, 90, and higher grade fuels, and it still happens? next are they going to say it is the gas station company I go to? the way I put the nozzle into the tank? (does this sounds sarcastic when you read it? good) I find that comment from Chrysler absolutely demeaning and idiotic!!! it has been a known issue on several previous models of Jeeps, but for some reason they are going to ignore this one? what will it take Chrysler? will it take a class action lawsuit to get your company to fix the problem? I now just read a reply that someone had contacted a law firm in regards to a class action suit and that it had been transferred to bankruptcy court in new york where it was still alive and that the court had granted Chrysler's motion to dismiss stating they are barred by the sale order between bankrupt Chrysler and the new Chrysler. Wow!!! great business model. Lets file bk. (one of the questions asked at the bottom of this complaint form is when did this happen? every time I fill up since 5-30-2015!!!.
When you fill the gas tank, there is always a spill over of gas that comes out. I have researched this and it is a very common issue with Jeep owners. Please force a recall. It is very dangerous to have fuel all over the side of the car and on the floor every time I fill up for gas.
