 In approx nov of 2012 i started having problems with fuel overflowing on ground/feet when filling gas tank. there would be a quart or better of fuel that would spill. after the fourth occurance i had dealership check it out while in for routine oil change. on february 6, 2013, i was advised that the vent had failed on the gas tank and the gas tank needed to be replaced. unfortunately, there is a minimun three week back order on jeep gas tanks from chrysler. dealership told me they are seeing a high number of filler neck and tank failures, causing the delay in obtaining parts. i was told this is not a recall, but i am still covered under warranty. now jeep feels like it is going to stall while idiling. dealership advised this is probably related to the gas tank not venting.

 Fuel spit back during refueling. this has happened on multiple occassions now. worried about potential fire hazard. chrysler/jeep has not yet issued a warranty extension for this model year eventhough incidents are consistent with the same reported issue in 2007-2008 jeep wrangler jks for which a warranty extension was issued.

 When refueling, the pump handle clicks off at the appropriate time the tank should be full. however when you pull the pump handle out of the filler neck, the fuel continues to flow as if it were not shut off. this overflow causes fuel to spew out of the filler neck on the car and surrounding area.

 When filling up gas tank, i set the pump to automatically shut off. upon shutting off, a significant amount of gas spewed out down the side of vehicle and onto the ground. this has happened every time i have filled up since. i have tried different gas pumps and station and it has continued to happen every time i have filled up.

 While filling up my gas tank i set the pump's trigger mechanism that allows for continuous flow. prior to the automatic stopping of the pump a substantial amount of gasoline spewed out from the tank. this resulted in a trail of gasoline from my tank down the side of my vehicle and ultimately a large puddle of gasoline on the pavement.

 Every time i fill my vehicle up with gas the pump shuts off and then the vehicle spews gas out of the fill tube. this has happened at every pump i have used at multiple gas stations. i have tried different angles and it does not help. the last time it happened gas got all over my hands and all over the vehicle. i am concerned about the paint wearing away as well as the potential safety issue of having gas under the vehicle. a significant amount comes out of the fill tube when this happens. i have seen multiple reports of this happening on different forums. it looks like a warranty was extended for 2007 and 2008 models, but not 2010's. *tr

 The last time two times i filled my gas tank, at two different gas stations, there was a backsplash of gasoline after the pump automatically stopped. i did not try to top off. as i pulled the nozzle out of the tank, about a cup or two of gas splashed out over the fender, my fingers, and onto the ground. the first time i assumed it was a freak incident from the pump, but as it happened a second time today at a different gas station, it seems to be an issue with the vehicle. *tr

 When filling the gas tank, after the pump automatically shuts off, fuel spills from the tank. the fuel spurts out, getting on skin and clothing, and runs down the side of the vehicle, enough to puddle on the ground. this has occurred at the last two consecutive fill-ups for this vehicle. it occurred at two different gas stations. at neither occurrence was the tank being topped off when the fuel spillage occurred. the fuel spurting out allows potentially dangerous emissions to be released. *tr

 Every time i've filled up the gas tank, no matter if i do it automatic setting or manual with the lowest setting pressure while pumping. the gas overflows every time. i've tried several gas pumps, adjusted the setting of the pump inside the tank, it still overflows every time. i spoke with the dealership of this issue and they said that my 2010 year model was not covered for the recall when i've heard from fellow owners of the 2010 model having the same problem but they just opt to not fill up the tank while pumping and just stop midway. *tr

 When i fill up my car gas spills out at the end. it started a couple of months after i bought it but then it stopped. the last month it has gotten extremely worse. i saw that later model jeeps had this problem and that there was a recall. mine was doing exactly the same as the recall vehicles, but i was told that i was not eligible for the recall and would have to pay for the replacement tank. i had an extended warranty, but i do not feel that i should have to pay a dime for a continued part problem. *tr

 Every time i fill my wrangler with fuel, the tank overflows after the click, sometimes spilling as much as a 1/2 gallon of fuel on the side of the vehicle and all over the ground. it does not matter if i slow down to a trickle. as soon as i hear the click, gas goes everywhere. i am genuinly concerned about the safety hazard as this happens each time i fill up.

 The recent recall by jeep on the 2010 wranglers does not fit the situations that have been occuring. several owners have experienced spontaneous fires, and were not in any off-road situation that could have cause debris to collect on or near the catalytic converter. they were simply driving home from work, or on the highway. one owner, who contacted me, had 16 miles on it (2012 model), and had just picked it up from the dealership. it caught on fire on his way home. another owner had 600 miles on it (another 2012 model) and it was sitting in front of his home. numerous have not been on the 2010 models either. the debris that collected under my vehicle was not burned up in the fire, and not even in that same location. i believe that this recall is jeep's attempt to bandage a larger issue they they are hiding from the public. video from my fire clearly shows a liquid (tranny fluid or fuel) pouring from the vehicle from the very beginning of the fire. my feeling is that it's a tranny cooler overflow problem, or a bad fuel line connection. here is a link to the facebook page that i created for others to post their experiences. https://www.facebook.com/jeepwranglersthatcaughtonfire
