2007 Chrysler Aspen fuel system problems

Filed Feb 26, 2025 · Fuel system · AZ

When fueling the vehicle as soon as the pump pops off indicating your tank is filled gass will sphew/ or spray back out of the vehicle and onto the person fueling, the side of the vehicle and the ground. This happens every single time no matter what fuel station you use,regardless of the time of day or temperature outside. After looking online I can see there have been numerous reports of this from other 2007 Chrysler Aspen owners going back several years; however, I have not been able to locate anything indicating this is a recall and my vin number indicates all recalls have been addressed on this vehicle. Is there a solution for this issue, is it being repaired by Chrysler or what is being done? Please let me know, as this is a safety issue for anyone fueling up , anyone in the vehicle or around the vehicle. I noticed it asks for an approximate date of when this occured, there has been several dates so I will provide the date of the most recent issue.

When filling the gas tank up using the "fill lock" feature on nearly all modern fuel pump nozzles, when the tank gets full the fill nozzle clicks off and about a half a pint of raw fuel is "purged" back out of the tank filler neck. At first I thought this was a problem at a specific fuel station. I have since learned that it can do it anywhere, at any time of day, and at any temperature.

My 07 Chrysler aspen has a huge fuel problem and as I have read it’s happening to a lot of people! When I fill my car up with fuel no matter what store I am at the gas starts spewing back out of the tank. I do not over fill my car the moment the gas pump clicks that it’s done, a lot of gas starts spewing out onto the ground! I believe this is a potential hazardous ⚠️ situation for all involved especially my family! For one I am stressed out about if there were to be an accidental rollover the gas would go everywhere, and 2 when it pours out onto the ground or could even splash out onto my skin I could end up with chemical burns or the bio hazard issue we are having with the gas just being powered onto the ground without me being able to control it! Chrysler doesn’t seem to think this is a problem or that it’s hazardous! But when people go to have the problem fixed they are telling everyone it’s a faulty gas tank and you have to replace the entire tank!! Please help us get our cars fixed for something that Chrysler messed up on they should be responsible for the repairs!!

My vehicle was stationed at a gas station pump as I was pumping fuel and I wanted to fill up the tank, and so I did. But, right before the pump stopped, the gas spit and spilled out of the tank, ran down the side of my vehicle and on to the floor.

Every time we fill the gas tank ... The vehicle will stutter / shake when at idle or die completely at idle like at a stop sign or drive through window. It will restart after about 30 seconds. After it has been driven about 25-40 miles it stops happening. We have paid for total vehicle inspections, we have also paid $1300 to have every single problem a certified chrysler dealership can find fixed. This did not help the problem at all and the dealership says there is absolutely nothing wrong with the SUV. This is the car our son drives and we are very concerned. We are not in a financial position to replace the vehicle and have now emptied our savings to have the vehicle completely serviced, inspected and repaired.

The driver's seatbelts buckle will get stuck when trying to unbuckle your seat belt it will not release. When pumping gas at any gas station when the gas pump shuts off and then it will spray gas out of the fill hole all over the vehicle and onto the ground no matter if you're pumping fuel slow or fast

When filling the fuel tank on this vehicle, it often overflows and dumps gas down the side of the vehicle. There is supposed to be something that prevents this from happening.... Are there any known issues with this valve/ or part?

Tsb 14-001-12 fuel splash back. Had my car and they did the repairs. But, its did not fix the problem!!! Was told I need a new gas tank. It will cost me, $1,500. Called chrysler corp. And was told they do not pay for the tank?? It still is a safety problem with gas spiting out over the car,me,ground. I feel chrysler should repair the problem, not only on the service bulletin but repair the problem......
