2009 Jeep Wrangler 2-DR 4x4 fuel system problems

Filed Mar 21, 2018 · Fuel system · CA

Fuel spits back during refueling cause: valve integrated in fuel tank is defective, tank requires replacement. Previous model year had the same issue and a service-bulletin was issued (14-001-11) with unlimited time and mileage expiration. It appears to me that the gas tank has a design flaw and somehow a defective tank was placed in my vehicle, I believe my vehicle should apply to the service bulletin the symptoms and corrective action are the same

My jeep has been having an ongoing issue while fueling. After the fuel filling nozzle automatically shuts off it will spit out fuel all over me and my vehicle. I understand that the warranty on 2007-2008 jeep wrangler jks has been extended to be a lifetime warranty and mine does not fall under the warranty, even though it is the same issue. This is not just an inconvenience. Gasoline can contain hydrocarbons, parafins, olefins, cycloalkanes, oxygenators, and aromatics including benzene which is a known human carcinogen. This fueling issue is not only a safety and environmental concern but it is also a health concern for your customers.

When filling up my 2 door jeep wrangler it never fails to overflow, it doesn't matter what pump I use or how fast or slow I fill up. I have researched that they fixed a couple years and mine doesn't fit into that. I feel it is very frustrating that they won't fix all years considering they know this is a common issue and a safety hazzard as the gas doesn't just get all over my vehicle and the ground but myself as well. This has been happening for a couple months, I thought it was maybe the pump or the way I was pumping the gas and nothing I have done to change it has helped.

Purchased vehicle last year, suddenly when filling the fuel, at the point the pump automatically shuts off the gas back blows dumping a substantial amount of fuel on you and the ground. This never happened before january of this year and has happened the last three times I have fueled my vehicle at different pumps.

Every time I fill up gas. It's spit out gas on the side of my car and on the ground. This happens from the day I own the car. The gas attendant told me that it doesn't that with all the newer jeep.

When filling fuel tank, gas nozzle kicks off then fuel splashes back out of filler neck and goes every where, any where from a quart to more. I have been sprayed to many times and had to drive with gas on my clothes. This is very dangerous not only from risk of fire but from breathing gas fumes on ones clothes. I talked with jeep customer service and ask why they didn't have a recall on this problem and was informed they don't issue recalls unless they are forced. What's up with that, I hope you all will change your decision and force a recall before someone gets hurt. I can also send a video of gas slashing out every where if you need proof.

When filling my 2009 wrangler with fuel the pump does not automatically shut off before fuel has spilled out of the tank, down the side of my car and onto the ground. I reported this to jeep when if first occurred and they were familiar with the issue, but would not correct it free of charge. But let me know that I could pay to have it fixed. I have not paid to fix it and it continues to happen to this day. This is clearly a design flaw and they acknowledged that, but still have not issued a service bulletin to correct it. The dangers of fuel spilt down the side of my car and onto the ground should be obvious.

In feb 2011. I started getting fuel spitting back when filling my jeep. Tried 5 different gas stations over the course of a month. All with the same results. Took it into the local dealership. They agreed that it was a known problem and made repairs under the 3/3600 warranty. Now the same problem is happening again. Dealership is going to take a look at it later this week. But cannot promise anything about it being covered. Even though it has been a known problem with this series of wranglers.
