| Description of the problem | My 2008 jeep jk rubicon spews gas and ejects the gas pump when it reaches capacity. It doesn't happen everytime, but every third time. I now have to "gauge" how much gas is in the tank and stop it before it fills up. When it overflows, nearly a pint to two pints spew out all over my jeep, gas station floor and several times over myself. This is a serious health and environmental hazard. Imagine someone lighting a cigarette after a fuel up forgetting he just got gasoline on him. |
