When ever I fill the tank with gas I get leakage of fuel on my driveway so I have been filling it halfway and I don’t get the leakage it also has a fuel smell. I have found on the internet that this is common and the repair part is available, but I feel that this is very similar to the recall on Toyota trucks that is now on going so I feel it is my duty to report this safety situation

Gas smell in the cabin by model year
What owners say
While fueling jeep, as it gets full it will splash gasoline from the fill area onto the jeep and myself. This is an ongoing problem as it happens on a regular basis and then have to clean my jeep and myself up because the gas comes out at a good force. I then smell like gasoline for the rest of the day.
Seem to have a fuel leak somewhere. Smell of gasoline from the rear of the vehicle. Especially strong when the heater is on. Strong smell even when just walking around the vehicle outside, but no obvious leak visible.
Just about every time I fill up my 2010 jeep wrangler jk with gas, it spits gas back out of the fill up neck tube. When I get home and park it in the garage it fills the entire house up with gas odor. I am very concerned about our health as this could not be safe. Just a side note, I am also concerned what this will do to my nice paint. I have researched this very good and have read several other cases identical to mine and it seems that this problem needs addressed.
When exiting vehicle noticed a strong raw gas smell on drivers side. Vehicle was then parked in garage overnight and upon entering the garage the next morning, the fumes were so strong that immediate ventilation was necessary. Problem may coincide with when gas tank is filled to capacity. Problem repeated for a few days and then did not reoccur until gas tank was refilled.
