2005 Jeep Liberty fuel system complaints
Page 2 of 15: complaints 11 to 40 of 409, newest first, as owners wrote them.
Every time the vehicle is refueled, it does not shut off as it should and gas pours out and all over the ground and down the side of the vehicle. Several times it has been so bad that employees of the gas station had to intervene. This is a fire hazard, as well as a environmental problem.
Fuel spills from tank during fill up. I bought this car used and the paint is damaged from the previous spills that have occurred. It is evident this has been a long standing issue with this vehicle.
When fueling vehicle as it finishes filling the gas tank it will spew gas out and over the side of the vehicle.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. While the vehicle was parked at the contact's residence, a fuel leak was noticed. The failure recurred several other times. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic three times. The vehicle was not diagnosed and the contact did not know what the mechanic replaced. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred several times afterwards. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The dealer stated that there were no recalls for the failure. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 91,935.
When fueling, the gas tank sensor fails and causes the gas pump to not automatically stop and gas overflows. Luckily I was not standing too close when this happened. Also,upon stopping and ignition is off the seatbelt on the drivers side does not retract after unlatching and when getting out of the car the seatbelt gets stuck in the door.
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. After placing fuel in the vehicle, fuel spilled out. The dealer diagnosed that the fuel tank needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 31,000.
I have called and contacted jeep hot line at 18774265337 but no luck. Fuel overflows from filler after auto-shutoff of pump occurs. Occurs every time fueling operations occurs regardless of fuel station. Numerous complaints issue but no service bulletins or recalls. Potential fire hazard.
My gas overflow every time I fill up my tank. This has been happening for a few years and I contacted jeep and was told they would not do anything. This is a safety hazard and could cause a fire and something should be done I have spoken to several jeep owners with this model and they are having the same problem.
The federal safety agency recall number 13v‑252. Chrysler/jeep has never contacted me in reference to this recall. Which seems to be very serious since it appears passengers in my vehicle and myself could be killed due to this defect. Another example of jeep not caring about their customers. Once they get their money they don't know you. I am the only owner of the vehicle and I have not moved so there is no excuse for not contacting me. I am sure they will lie and say they did. If they had I would have had the work done since it involves life and death. All about the bottom line and not caring about people. I would prefer they send me the materials to repair the problem and I will have my mechanic take care of the issue. When I had jeep repair a defective window regulator now that door does not work. I want it done right so have them send me the parts needed to: 115 avenue c, sch. Haven, pa 17972.

Fuel overflows gas tank every time vehicle is filled with fuel
Tl* the contact owns a 2005 jeep liberty. The contact received notification of the federal safety agency campaign numbers: 12v085000 (suspension) and 13v252000 (fuel system, gasoline and structure). The parts to do the recall repair were unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The manufacturer was not aware of the issue. The contact had not experienced a failure. Parts distribution disconnect.
Every time the gas tank is filled, gasoline overflows before the automatic fueling nozzle shutoff activates. Fuel runs down the side of the vehicle and onto the ground.
While dispensing fuel into the vehicle at a filling station the fuel gushes from the fill port prior to the tank being full. The fuel continues to come out for a few second after the fuel dispensing is stopped. This is completely un safe, wasteful and creates an emissions issue at every fill up.
My jeep has been on a waiting list for a year now for the fuel tank recall every time I call the dealership they say call us back in a couple months to see where we are on the list I don't feel it should take this long to be fixed
Mfg seems unable to provide parts for recognized recall to my established jeep dealer to install trailer hitch to provide additional mechanical protection for fuel tank.
2005 jeep liberty. Consumer writes in regards to dealership has not addressed the fuel tank problems recall notice. *smd the consumer stated he was first informed in march 2014, the parts were not available. As of august 2015, the parts were still not available.
We received the notice about the gas/fuel tank potential to catch fire, we took our vehicle to the dealer. The dealer explained that we have too much corrosion on our vehicle to be repaired. The cost to repair exceeds the value of the vehicle, currently we are still driving with a vehicle that may catch fire. We contacted chrysler as we still are paying off the vehicle, we where given the run around until finally one associate told us simply, they will not help you. Prior to this recall notice we have constantly had issues when filling up with gas and the gas would leak out in large quantities instead of shutting off. We replaced the oil pan recently after it rusted out, we are about to replace to transmission fluid pan as that is about to rust out, the transmission lines are also rusting and corroded. Our jeep may be an 05 but it looks as if its brand new rolling off the line, we take care of our vehicle. We are informed consumers and know there is a recall for chrysler failing to fix the fuel tank explosion issues, when we looked up the VIN for our vehicle it was not showing that it is one of the one's being recalled. Our vehicle was not repaired and we should be included in this recall. We want to know if our vehicle will be included in the recall. We still have all the paperwork from visiting the dealer. When we took the vehicle up for the recall, the dealership told us that jeep has issues with rust to begin with and that it is a known issue that has yet to be corrected.
The car does not shut off fueling when the gas tank is full, causing a large amount of gas to spew out of the car when filling gas every time. Causes gasoline to go everywhere, is a fire hazard. (it is not just a little bit of gas, the car is turned off, at the gas pump and at the gas station.)

When filling the gas tank the gas pump shuts off but the gas is already pouring out of the vehicle the vehicle doesn't shut off and it over fills the gas and it runs down the side of the vehicle. We bought this second hand and not sure if there was every a recall on it?
I own a 2005 jeep liberty that has been recalled due to the fuel tank has a chance of experiencing a fuel leak during certain types of rear end collisions. I have returned the vehicle to the dealer and was told that chrysler does not have to make the repairs due to the car having a reconstructed title. I am checking with your agency to find out if that is the truth. I have had recall work done in the past without this issue arising.
