2006 Jeep Wrangler fuel system complaints
Page 13 of 17: complaints 341 to 370 of 479, newest first, as owners wrote them.
When refueling the vehicle, the fuel does not automatically shut off and splashes out down the side the vehicle, onto the ground and all over the person fueling the vehicle. This happens every time the vehicle needs to be refueled. Nothing has been found to stop this from happening. The dealer is unwilling to assist in solving the problem.
Fuel tank overflows when filling. Just purchased vehicle used. Vehicle has been filled 6 times at 5 different gas stations and has overflowed on every occasion. Taken to dealer and they claim they are unable to reproduce.
Every time I fuel the jeep, gasoline overflows on the jeep and the ground before the automatic nozzle shuts off.
I have a 2006 jeep rubicon. Every time I fill it up with gas it overflows out the tank. The gas nozzle want kick off. I only have around 26,000 miles on it and it started about a 1000 miles ago.
During fueling of a 2006 jeep wrangler rubicon unlimited, when the fuel pump nozzle automatically stops the flow of gasoline as the fuel tank fills, fuel surges back through the filler tube and vigorously splashes out on the side of the vehicle and anything or person within 2 to 3 feet of the fuel filler. This occurs every time the fuel tank is filled and has drenched the person filling the vehicle from the waist down with gasoline on two occasions. Has spilled fuel on every fillup (at least one cup), despite precautions (slowing filling rate). Manufacturer and dealer have done nothing to correct this problem.
Gas tank overflows everytime I fill up unless I stop before the tank is full and manually fill the rest of the tank at a very reduced rate. The over flow results in approximately 1 quart of gas being spilled.
I have a 2006 jeep wrangler rubicon and everytime I fill up at the gas station the fuel overflows and comes back out onto the jeep. I don't know what the problem is but its a common occurrence there should be a tsb issued to resolve the problem.
Tl*the contact owns a 2006 jeep wrangler. The contact stated that while adding gasoline to the fuel tank it would spew out of the tank, splash on the contact and then on the ground. The contact feared that a fire could start due to the failure. The contact had not taken the vehicle to a dealer for diagnostic testing. The contact stated that this was a known issue and numerous owners with the same year, make and model have complained about the failure. The failure mileage was 75,000.
While filling with gas the fuel overfills and spills all over the side of my 2006 jeep wrangler unlimited rubicon and on the ground. This happens every time I fill my tank.
Gas tank overflows every time I fill up at the pump.
Fuel overflow everytime I fill up, pumps will not shut off until fuel is spilling out filler neck, happens at every gas station I have tried. Happens at every fill up.
Gas tank overflows evertime I fill up regardless of location.
I have a 2006 jeep wrangler rubicon. Whenever I fill up, it overflo's. I have no blockage of kinks in the tubing . It has been going on for a while.
2006 jeep wrangler -- bought used with less than 30k miles on it. Wobble at about 55mph, intermittently. Mine was solved by replacing the stabilizer bar, had nothing to do with tires, although the first time it happened, I thought I had blown a tire. Gas tank filling -- same problem, the pump doesn't shut off unless you pump the gas slowly. First few times, spewed gas all over the jeep, myself and the pavement. Now I listen as the tank fills and slow the fill as I know it's starting towards full. With the slowing, the pump does shut off but it's a good idea to have some idea how much gas the tank will take at certain fuel readings.
Right when the gas pump automatically stops pumping gas, my tank will spew fuel out of the filler tube.
When fueling my 2006 jeep wrangler unlimited the fuel spills out the top prior to shutoff.
Just purchased a used 06 jeep wrangler in perfect condition with 16000+ miles, took it to fill it up and gas ran out on my first fill up. Now I have to estimate how much gas I need and when I get the that amount, I slowly fill the tank to full. (8/100
Every time I fill up at the gas station the pump will overflow if I'm filling up the tank. The pump doesn't stop unless I pull the nozzle out at which point gas will spill all over the rear flare and paint. It happens at all gas stations. This is in my opinion a very serious safety issue. It appears chrysler is going to wait for an ignition source to be around for someone to get seriously injured or die before they resolve this.
Every time I fill up with gas the gas will overflow from the fill hole. I would estimate about 2 cups of gas spills before the gas shuts off. It is a huge safety issue and horrible for the environment.
Everytime I fill my gas tank up, gas explodes out of the filler. If this isn't a safety issue than I don't know what is!
1. Fueling the vehicle. 2. When fuelling my 2006 jeep wrangler unlimited, gasoline will abruptly backflow out of the filler neck and spray all over as the tank gets close to being full. It happens so quickly and violently that the auto shutoff on the gas hose does not stop it. This will happen any time I attempt to fill the tank to full. Consequences: as a result, I have had gasoline sprayed all over me numerous times including getting it in my eyes. Also, gasoline gets all over the side of the vehicle and leaves puddles of gas on the ground creating a fire hazard. I must stop fuelling before the tank is full to prevent this from happening. Overall this is a life safety hazard and I feel it needs to be addressed.
When filling the gas tank on my 2006 jeep wrangler x, the tank overflows a few cups of gasoline out of the filler opening after the pump handle shuts off. This results in gasoline pouring onto the pavement and down the side of my jeep - and also sometimes onto my feet! This is now a documented problem with many jeeps, and chrysler should be required to recall and fix this problem immediately! I would not be surprised if gas station owners start banning jeeps from filling up, since the jeeps are causing gasoline to be spilled onto gas station pavement on a regular basis!
Every time I fill the fuel tank on my 2006 jeep wrangler it splashes fuel out upon reaching full. This is not just a little fuel, but a lot. It surges out all down the vehicle and onto the ground. I've contacted my dealer several times about this issue and they say it's a known problem with my type of vehicle and there currently is no fix. They suggest not filling the tank completely full. This is hard to accomplish because there is no way to tell when the tank is getting full. This is a dangerous and environmentally unfriendly problem that needs to be addressed!
2006 jeep wrangler. The gas tank overflows everytime I fill the tank. This has been happening for about 6 months now and happens everytime at every pump.
My jeep does not stop the pump before it is close to being full causing the gas to overflow from my tank and leak out all over the car, it is a common defect among chryslers.
During refueling - the tank fills up fine except for the "final" moment. At the time a normal system registers "full" the refueling handle will click "off" and stop the fuel flow into the filler neck. In my instance, the refueling handle does click/shut off, but about a pint of fuel spits out onto the side of the vehicle and the ground. I have attempted many different methods, I.e. Repositioning the refueling handle, filling fast or slow, different grades of fuel, different gas stations and even different stations in different states. The only thing that seemed to help was using a fuel additive every 2nd fill up, but the problem always resurfaces. Through research, the general public seems to suspect a faulty "roll over valve" which can only be replaced by replacing the fuel tank.
Fuel spills while filling up jeep wrangler. After pumping fuel, fuel dumps out of tank inlet and spills on ground.
Every time I fill up my gas tank the pump doesn't shut off and it overfills the tank causing fuel to spill everywhere. It doesn't matter which pump or gas station I use it happens every time. The solution is unknown to fix the problem.
1. I get low on fuel and need to refuel my wrangler. 2. Gas overflows the tank filler tube and spills fuel all over the back of the vehicle, tires, ground, and depending where I am standing, me. It occurs just about every time I fill me vehicle up, at many different stations with different nozzle types. 3. There has been nothing done to correct the problem.
