The gas tank over flows on my 2008 jeep wrangler. It causes the gas to over flow and get on the jeep, me, and the ground. It has nearly gotten in my eye several times due to having to be near the nozzle during fueling.

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. Consumers report that the spilled fuel can splash on the person fueling the vehicle, or on the side of the vehicle and the ground.

Every time I fill my gas tank in my 2007 jeep wrangler it over flows out of the tank on to the ground.
When filling my 2008 jeep wrangler fuel about a quart of fuel spilled from the filler tube after the gas pump had stopped.
When fueling, gas gushes out of the fill tube after pump shuts off and tank is nearly full. Happens every time I fill the tank. Approximately 2-3 cups (1 to 1.5 pints) of fuel spills down side of vehicle and on to the ground creating a fire hazard and long term environmental damage.
I have a 2008 jeep wrangler unlimited that overflows while filling up the gas tank. The dealership changed out the filler neck and the problem when away for a few months but it is back. Everytime (without fail) the tank is filled up a considerable amount of gas pours back out.
Repeated gasoline overflow from fuel filling neck when pump is on hold open latch and getting close to or at full getting gasoline on clothes vehicle and ground in amounts close to a half gallon damaging paint near fuel filler neck and clothing.
When filling the jeep with fuel and it finishes, the pump acknowledges that it is full and stops pumping but about a second later fuel pours out. This happens at every gas station and everytime I fill it completely.

2008 4dr jeep wrangler spills gas when filling up using automatic shutoff nozzles. This has occurred 3x over the last year.
My 2008 jeep wrangler jk 4dr is just over 20k miles, and everytime I go to fill up, the gas tank overflows immediately after the pump shuts off. I am not topping off, or trying to get a couple more cents into the tank. I set the handle and sit back in my jeep to let the gas pump. When the tank is full, the pump handle clicks and stops the gas flow, when all of a sudden, gas shoots out of the tank. This happens everytime I fill up, so now I have to stand and hold the handle, making sure I don't let the gas get too high in my tank. I would estimate 2-4 cups of gasoline spill everytime this happened, resulting in discoloration to the side of my jeep (paint and fenders). Very upset that daimler chrysler has not issued a recall on this, as I know many people who are experiencing the same problem with their wranglers.
Fuel spills out of the filler port during the refueling process. I cannot fill tank completely.
When pumping fuel, the fuel tank and assembly does not allow the fuel nozzle to shut off. This results in loss of fuel onto the ground. Usually, once it starts overflowing, the fuel nozzle will stop pumping, but sometimes it does not. I thought it was something wrong with only my vehicle, but it turns out it is a very common problem with these models. The dealership denies any knowledge of the problem, and says it is not covered by warranty.
Gas shoots out of the filler neck when tank is full during fueling process - does not trip pump handle to shut off until you have taken a bath in gasoline. Fixed once under warranty, started doing it again 3 months later.
My 2008 4dr jeep wrangler spills fuel every time I fill it up. I have tried filling slowly and carefully positioning the pump nozzle with no change. My concern is that this could become a fire hazard at the pump.
My 2008 jeep jk wrangler unlimited fuel tank overflows when filling it .
2008 jeep wrangler gas tank overflows after automatic pump shutoff is activated. No "topping off" is performed. Approximately 1/4 - 1/2 gallons of gasoline "burps" out of gas tank and spills down vehicle and onto ground. This problem occurs everytime the gas tank is filled and is quite dangerous, as it could lead to vehicle fires due to the excess fuel and vapors. The dealer has informed me that they have never heard of this problem, but seems to be quite prevalent on the internet. No fix has been taken at this time on my vehicle, but I read that replacing the fuel tank fixes the problem.
When filling my 2008 jeep jk rubicon unlimited, gasoline shoots out of the filler neck at the end of the fill. It happens on any pump, at any temperature, at any altitude. It began suddenly after 20,000 miles. My jeep dealer says they have never heard of it and know of no fix for it.
When filling up my 2008 wrangler rubicon unlimited with fuel, it does not allow any pump to automatically shut off on time therefore it causes a good amount of fuel to spill out every time. No matter how fast or slow you are pumping. This could make for a dangerous situation as well as have a bunch of fuel spills which cant be good in the eyes of the epa. Seems to be a very common problem with several late model wranglers as evident by personal experience and many, many post on jeep wrangler forums. Took it to the dealership, and of course they couldn't replicate the problem so they couldn't fix it. From what I've read on forums it seems that the only fix is to change out the fuel tank, which apparently has a faulty valve inside. This issue has been going on for quite some time. I bought the vehicle new and it currently only has 13,400 miles. Some people have reported them doing this in the very first fill on their new vehicles.
Fuel sprays out of gas tank when gas pump auto stop is used. This is a fire danger as the muffler is very near the fuel inlet. Also, I have had fuel sprayed on my body, and if ignited, would have caused severe burns. This occurs about 75% of the time when using pump auto stop. I have since quit using auto stop, and manually stop the fuel pump. I'm taking to dealership for them to attempt a permanent repair.
