| Description of the problem | When putting fuel in the gas tank, the pump kicks off and gas splashes out like the tank is full. We have to hold the nozzle and let it trickle in the gas for quite sometime. It doesn't matter how we hold the gas nozzle or what angle, it simply shuts off the pump like its full, and i'm dealing with spilt gas on me and the ground! I cannot fill my tank! After speaking with a jeep dealership, they verified it does happen to the compasses. What! There is a recall for the 2012, for the same problem. I am requesting a full refund for getting mine fixed, for seems to be the same problem. The problem got worse, i need gas and it alas it didn't allow for a fill up of gas. |
