Upon commencement of fuel refilling, the fuel does not enter the tank, fuel spills are recurrent and of a large quantity. When fuel level reaches near capacity, fuel spillage occurs.

Spewed gas all over bare legs with hand on the nozzle, this happens every time I put gas in. It also air locks /stops pumping even at low speed have to pull the filler and reinsert to get it to fill... Then close to the top but not all the way it pukes gas all over body have to stand off to the back of jeep with hand holding handle every time I try to fill up have never had the gas gauge show all the way full. I bought the jeep used less than 2 months ago and have read of similar problems with this year is there a recall???

My 2006 jeep wrangler spits gasoline out at me when filling the vehicle! It always happens when nearing full, no matter what I do to try to avoid it from happening. Sometimes it spits forcefully, hard enough to get gasoline on me, sometimes it's just a minor spit that just dribbles down the vehicle. Either way, it occurs every time I attempt to fill the tank to full. I have resorted to only putting 10 gallons of gasoline in at a time, and only if the fuel gauge reads below 1/4, to ensure I don't have to experience the gasoline spit-back. No parts have been replaced or repaired yet.

During re-fueling my 2006 jeep wrangler, fuel will come back out of the inlet when the fuel level reaches the top. It spills no matter how slow or fast I fuel the vehicle. I have been reading on internet community sites that this is a large scale problem and that I should log a complaint.
