| Description of the problem | At around 50,000 miles, the check valve on the fuel tank filler tube malfunctioned. This malfunction caused fuel fill nozzles at the gas station to automatically stop and it was very difficult to fill the tank. The jeep dealership diagnosed this issue as a check valve and the only solution to the issue was replacing the entire fuel tank. I had to pay out of pocket expenses to replace the entire fuel tank. |
