When we go to the gas station to fill our 2007 jeep wrangler, we engage the auto fill on the gas pump and every time gas spills out all over the side of the vehicle and onto the ground. Checked path of hoses from tank to inlet and saw no visible problems that would cause this serious safety issue. I have not spoken with a dealer nor third party mechanic. Please advise.

Fuel spill during a refuel of my 2007 jeep wrangler. It happens on every time I refuel and it is getting close to full. Pumps kicks off and at that precise moment the fuel backs up and spills.
Gas spills over every time I fill up my 2007 jeep wrangler. It never automatically shuts off when that gas tank is nearly full no matter what gas station I go to.
While filling up my 2007 jeep wrangler sahara unlimited with gas, the gas seems to overfill and spit back out of the fuel fill neck. This occurs at different pumps with no apparent consistent factors. When the tank gets full and the pump clicks off all of a sudden about a half a gallon of gas, or more, spits back out of the neck onto me, the vehicle and the ground. It happens everytime I try to completely fill the tank. Now I have adapted my fill up strategy and fill only to what I think is near full and not let it click. Dealership says nothing can be done for free without a recall.

2007 jeep wrangler gas over flows.
While filling up my 2007 jeep wrangler with gas, the gas seems to overfill and spit back out of the fuel fill neck. This occurs at different pumps with no apparent consistent factors. When the tank gets full and the pump clicks off all of a sudden about a half a gallon of gas, or more, spits back out of the neck onto me, the vehicle and the ground. It does not happen every time, I would say 2 or 3 out of every 10 times. Now I have adapted my fill up strategy and fill only to what I think is near full and not let it click, but this still seems dangerous to me. No other fix is known for this condition.
2007 jeep wrangler. When filling up gas tank the fuel overflows when full level is reached, spilling out of tank nozzle onto vehicle, ground and on person installing the fuel. This happens every time.
Each time I fill up my 2007 jeep wrangler fuel overflows from the filler tube all over my jeep and the ground. I thought I was doing something wrong so I stopped using the clip that allows the fuel to flow without holding the handle - this did nothing but get fuel all over me as well as the jeep and leave a large puddle on the ground. I checked with some friends who own jeeps as well as jeep blogs and as it turns out many jeep wrangler owners have the same problem - seems like a design flaw versus user error.
My gas tank over flows and gas squirts out as I'm filling my gas tank. This happens every time I get gas. As soon as it nozzle chicks, gas squirts out first and then when I take the nozzle out, gas gushes out all down the jeep and onto the ground. Gas is extremely expensive for me to lose gas each time. I am a commuter and gas up often. Also, what is the gas spilling on my jeep doing to the paint?

Tl*the contact owns a 2007 jeep wrangler sahara. The contact stated that when filling up the fuel tank, the pump failed to shut off when the vehicle was full. The gas would overflow out of the tank at times when it was full instead of shutting off the pump. The dealer is familiar with the failure and an appointment was scheduled and then cancelled. The vehicle has not been repaired to-date. He retrieved a service bulletin from the dealer which outlined the problem. He called the manufacturer and filed a complaint. The current mileage was approximately 55,000. The failure mileage was approximately 50,000.
When filling fuel tank, auto shut off no longer prevents fuel spilling when tank is full. Nozzle shuts off automatically, but approximately 1/2 quart of fuel is spilled onto the body, fender flare, bumper, and ground. Occurs at every fuel fill-up since reaching 46,000 miles (48,000 now, so approximately 10 occurrences).
When re-fueling, the pump clicks when full to shut off but the tank "burps" out fuel all over the side of the vehicle and the ground. It doesn't matter what gas station you use or how fast or slow you pump - it happens everytime.
