When filling the fuel tank to full gasoline will shoot out of the filler hole and over the side of the vehicle. The problem is consistent (I can only recall 4 times when it did not occur since I purchased the vehicle in 2015 with 82,000 miles on it. In all cases the vehicle was stationary, engine was off, parked next to the gasoline pump.

Every time I fill the gas tank, gas splashes back onto the pavement (or my clothing if I am standing near the fill pipe). This is a well known, and dangerous, problem that Jeep owners are aware of (per the on-line forums). I understand that there was a recall or service bulletin related to earlier models of Jeep Wranglers. Two dealers I went to deny any knowledge of this problem with 2010 Wranglers. On-line forums indicate that this is a continuing problem on newer Wranglers and that dealers are charging $200 - $600 to fix the problem when a simple solution for many owners has been to personally install part cnnnx321ac ($40. 00) which is a replacement fuel fill tube that has some sort of mechanism in it to prevent splash back. I installed this part and it solved the problem. The dealers I went to said they were not aware of this fix. I think that Chrysler should be paying for this fix. Instead they are denying that there continues to be a problem on the newer vehicles. I can't emphasize enough how dangerous this problem is.

When filling tank, fuel overflows every time. Have tried to decrease flow towards the end, but nothing seems to work. Seems like a huge safety issue with fuel spilling on every fill up.

Filling up the gas tank, fuel spills out of the fuel tank.
When refueling the car, gasoline gushes out of the fill hole when the pump shuts off. This happens every time and I have learned to never fill the tank. The first several times this happened I was soaked with gasoline. I have since learned to avoid the problem by never filling the tank.
Filling the Jeep up with fuel it spits a lot of fuel out when it gets full and several times getting on my cloths and shoes. I've read that a lot of people are having the same issue. If I were to get back in the Jeep and would get static and ignite my cloths and burn myself badly I don't think this would be good for anyone. I've read that certain dealers are replacing the tank for free and others aren't . Is there a recall or fix in the works for this or do people have to burn up to get any action? please advise.
Purchased vehicle new and historically/currently while filling the fuel tank at numerous gas stations the tank overflows splashing gasoline on the vehicle, ground, and personal clothing. (the vehicle is parked with engine off while refueling).

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 gushing out when filling vehicle at gas pump, the auto shut off does not shut off manually or auto shut off. Vehicle is stationary, I believe this is a manufacturers problem in the gas tank preventing the gas overflow. This is a hazard. This vehicle only has 47k miles. This has happened the last 4 times pumping gas.
When filling gas tank fuel comes spewing out before the fuel shutoff on the pump kicks in. No matter if I am holding the lever down just a tiny bit to just slowly fill it up. Every time!.
2006 tj fuel overflow when filling tank. Fuel spits out of gas tank on to person holding the gas handle pump when filling. Auto is off and stationary. It happens every time.
Fuel spills out when filling tank. The shutoff on the gas pump does not prevent this from occurring. This is not an overfill but happens even when the pressure is light. This is a potential fire hazard and environmental concern. Chrysler/Jeep has a TSB to correct this issue. This has been occurring since the vehicle was purchased in 2010.
When the vehicle is at a gas station stationary and filling the fuel tank gas spits out at the filler neck when the pump is left to stop automatically. This issue started at approximately 50,000 miles which s outside of the 36 k miles warranty period. This happens at every fill up and spills about a pint of fuel out onto the vehicle and the ground. It is a consistent issue that repeats at every fill up when the pump is left to stop automatically.
Gas spills out when filling tank instead of click gas pump off automatically.
When filling up with gas, after the automatic pump shutoff, gas shoots back out onto the side of the Jeep and the ground. Like the tank threw up the last bit of gas (about a liter of gas comes back out). Happens every time I fill up regardless of which gas station I go to.
This vehicle frequently experiences fuel "spit-back" on filling. It was manufactured in 10/06, five months before the date in Jeep's lifetime fuel tank replacement extended guaranty for spit-back. Also, the tank began leaking after every fill up. It leaked on the ground and/or with gas fumes present until the tank level got below 1/2 tank the leak source was where the fuel pump is inserted into the top of tank. The iron clamps and lock ring for the fuel pump are located in a depressed "bowl" at the top of the tank. Water accumulates and remains in the bowl causing the lock ring and clamps to rust. The rust expands and cracks the plastic that the fuel pump is made of. The repair requires replacing the fuel tank, lock ring, and fuel pump. In my opinion, this is a design or manufacturing problem and these conditions cause serious environmental and safety problems. I informed Jeep (case number 30126422) on 9/15/16 and they declined to do anything. I have spent $1,019. 60 on emergency and permanent repairs. Photos of the tank as it was removed from the Jeep showing "the bowl" and rust, rusted clamps, and cracked fuel pump are attached. Please let me know if I can provide any further information.
Gas spills out when filling up gas tank. Tried different gas station same thing. Gas pump autoshut off works but gas still backsplash out. Has been hahppening.
When filling the gas tank, once it reaches the full point, it fails to trigger the fuel pump to stop in time and fuel spills all over the side of the rear fender. It does this every single time I fill up.

While filling the gas tank, it will overflow and about a gallon of gas will come out and go all over the ground. It happens at many different gas stations and is a hazard to people and the environment .
While filling the gas tank fuel will spill out of the filler spout. It seems to be under pressure when the tank is almost full. . . . Very dangerous. . . If you do not stop the pump prior to a full tank of gas it will spill out every time.
Fuel spills out of the filler port during the refueling process. This condition generally occurs when the fuel tank is filled to the full or nearly full level and the gas pump automatically shuts or clicks off. The fuel splashes on the person fueling the car, the car itself, and onto the ground. This happens repeatedly, not just a single occurrence. Have tried different gas pumps, slowing the pump when it gets to almost full, and finally now just not filling up completely due to safety concerns of fuel spilling onto ground/driver/vehicle. Date given is most recent occurence, while it has been happening for over 6 months.
When filling up gas tank, pump clicks off and then fuel spills out. This occurs at different gas stations.
My gas tank overflows every time I fill it. It does not recognize when it is full and stops pumping. It makes the noise it if finished pumping and when I pull out the gas handle it overflows with gas down the side of my Jeep. My vehicle was stationary when filling it every time.
Each time I fill up the gas tank the gas overflows and erupts out of the filling hole spewing gasoline all over the bumper, fender, body and myself.
There is an overflow and expulsion of excess gas from the filler neck when filling the gas tank up all the way immediately after the gas pump shuts off. The vehicle is stationary and in the off position when this occurs. My guess is that approximately 1 pint to 1 quart of liquid is spilled down the side of the Jeep and onto the ground underneath the Jeep.
Gasoline overflows the tank when filling at every fillup, regardless of filling station brand name, time of year or filling with the nozzle handle held by hand or using the auto fill mode.
After the gas pump shuts off, when filling your tank, the Jeep Wrangler will shoot out fuel all over the Jeep and toward the person pumping.
Gas flowing out of tank opening, not shutting off when filling tank up. Has happened several times since having to fill vehicle up 3 times a week. Have tried several gas stations, and the same thing has happened at all stations. It seems the cutoff valve, o ring or something inside the gas opening is not working.

Just purchased this Jeep from a dealership and when I fill up the tank with gas it overflows every time spilling gas all over the ground and over the drivers rear quarter panel. It is hard to stop the overflow due to the gas coming out, danger of fuel getting on my clothes which then makes me flammable and smell like fuel. There is always the danger of fuel getting in my eyes as well, I do not feel safe with this flaw. I don't believe that all of the 2005 and 2006 Jeep owners should have to dish out $900 for a new fuel tank that will fail again anyway because the icv valve will just fail again. This is a stationary issue when filling the gas tank. Can't believe that spilling gas on the ground every time is that good for the environment.

Gas overflows when filling gas tank. When auto fill lever is engaged and tank is full gas burps and overflows spilling on ground.
