When I fill the gas tank, the station pump clicks off the nozzle then gas spits back out of my tank all over the side of my jeep and onto the ground.
2011 Jeep Wrangler fuel system complaints
Page 2 of 4: complaints 11 to 40 of 99, newest first, as owners wrote them.
When filling the fuel tank, gasoline spews out of the filler tube as the gas pump clicks off at "full" level. The vehicle was stationary and the engine was turned off. This problem happens almost every time I fill the tank
When filling with fuel, gas will spit back from the filler neck and all over the side of the jeep right before the fuel nozzle clicks off. This has happened 3 times now in the 3 weeks since I bought this vehicle from a dealer. This creates a fire hazard in the event gas hit a hot spot or a spark caused by static, etc...
The fuel tank rusted and had to be replaced. The dealership told me the tank was on backorder and this was an ongoing issue.
2011 jeep sahara wrangler refueling problem. Refueling geyser overflow problem of gasoline at where nozzle enters vehicle. Requires manually clicking off handle when fuel tank is completely full overflowing gasoline on ground, jeep, and self, (fuel on hands and shoes). This overflow occurred january 25, 2019, february 11, 2019, and march 10, 2019. We are the original owners from berglund jeep dodge ram dealership and the service advisor indicated repairs would not be covered april 3, 2019.
When filling up at a fuel pump, the fuel pump handle will click off and after that happens, about 1/4 of a gallon of fuel will spill out of the filler neck onto the side of my vehicle.
On going issue of fuel back splash when fueling. After pump shuts off fuel pours back out on to the vehicle and ground. On going issue.
My check engine light is on. After taking it in for a diagnostic test, they said my PCM failed. My jeep will not pass emissions the computer is not opening and closing my egr value.
Fuel sprays out of filler when filling fuel tank. The nozzle shuts off and then the fuel flows out onto operator and exterior of car and ground.
When refueling, the gas does not shut off and spills out of the tank until user shuts off. This happens each time you refuel and you are unable to fill up to shut off. I have spilled gasoline, on vehicle, clothing, ground, gas pump, etc. This is a pretty serious issue and I could not find a recall. I don't think this should be ignored. I had to add a date below, just the latest time it has been an issue. It has occurred multiple times to myself and my spouse.
Fuel spit back, airbag malfunction, tire pressure sensor, navigation system freezes
Crack in gas tank - the check engine light illuminated yesterday when I started the vehicle. I took my vehicle to my mechanic. There is a crack in the top of the gas tank. My mechanic said that after research in trying to get a new gas tank, he found that this is an issue. Mopar has a significant backorder for these tanks. This is definitely a safety issue and I hope it will be looked into.
Jeep has a leak at moulded valve for evap system on the top of the fuel tank
When I fill up at the pump gas overflows - tried different stations and setting on the lever.
Gas tank overflows when filling vehicle.. I have seen several complaints on line
When fueling the gas tank, gas will spew out in large volumes before the gas pump habdle deactivate allowing gas to spill over the side of jeep and on to the ground. It happens at multiple gas stations and multiple pumps. Problem is with jeep, not the gas pump handle. Simple google search reveals a miriad of the same problem. Vehicle is stationary. Note: has happened alot practically everytime, not just the date entered.
My jeep overflows gasoline everytime I fill up at the pump
In july 2017, vehicle did not pass emission requirements at state inspection. Upon investigation, determination was made that a plastic hose connection on top of tank had broken and that entire tank needed to be replaced. Replacement availability was not a problem - over 100 in stock locally (really? This must be a recurring problem!) replacement cost, parts & labor - $1200.) first replacement had same problem and was replaced immediately at no cost. Second replacement has now developed same issue & and now, after approximately 6+ months must be replaced again. It should be noted that there hasn't been any accident, or trauma of any kind to vehicle. Although replacement cost is not to be ignored, it is my contention that this obvious design flaw creates a significant safety hazard. In the event of a rollover, gasoline would free-flow from the tank onto the muffler.
Just bought the jeep, used in dec 2017. Every time I fill the tank, the fuel backs up the filler neck causing a mess on my jeep and the ground. Every time.
Fuel shooting out of gas tank when filling up. Does not shut off, sending fuel flying out all over vehicle and concrete. Vehicle stationary, not running. Began in early january 2018 and continues with each fill-up.
Every time I fill my gas tank I have gasoline spray back and overfill pouring out from the gas tank. The gas spills all over myself, my jeep and the ground. Happens every time regardless of where I fill up.
Gas shooting back at me when I fill up. Horrendous and a safety issue. All over my child next to me. I want to sue jeep.
Gasoline/fuel spit or spray-back and overfill spillage when filling fuel tank, especially when/after fuel filling nozzle shuts off (automatic shut off). Occurs practically every time I fill my tank.
When filling the gas tank there is something wrong with the filet neck. The gas does not stop when your filling it. The gas overrated all the time. The person at the gas station says it happens w all the jeep's. This is dangerous and someone is going to die when the gas spills out. Also jeep says it's a problem but says there isn't a recall
Gasoline will overflows when filling the gas tank. It also produces back pressure when filling causing the fuel pump to automatically shut off prematurely.
Fuel keep's spitting out when I fill-up with gas.
Bought jeep new. Has always needed oil between changes. Constant ticking sound started a few weeks ago while engine was running. Mechanic says engine needs to be replaced.
I was driving at under 10 MPH, on a texas state road when the plastic fuel line which is connected to the underside of the body with some type of adhesive failed. This dropped the fuel line directly on the catalytic converter, which melted the fuel line causing a fire that spread to the engine compartment. Apparently this is an issue on the 4 door model wranglers as the 2 door wranglers have a plate preventing this. This issue should be looked at on all 4 door models, ranging from 2008 through at least 2013. I have looked at other 4 door jeeps and see that they have the same potential issue there is nothing that prevents the fuel line from coming into contact with the exhaust and potentially causing a fire.
Every time I fill up my gas tank it clicks once to shut off and then fuel comes shooting out like a geyser. I have tried pumping slowly and all different positions with nozzle and that doesn't help. A huge amount of gasoline spits out everywhere.
Tl* the contact owns a 2011 jeep wrangler. While driving approximately 45 MPH, the fuel tank tubing fractured.
