| Description of the problem | I was fueling my jeep. While the pump was active i was washing the windows. I heard ans smelled fuel splashing and had to run back and manually disengage the nozzle. The left rear of the vehicle and the ground were covered with gas. Thinking it might be a gas pump (gas station) problem, i ignored the problem. When it happened two more times at different locations, i got repairs done at a local garage. My garage looked up the problem on the internet and found http://www. Edmunds. Com/autoobserver-archive/2011/02/chrysler-fuel-spit-back-complaints-rise. Html which documents a spike in complaints from other jeep wrangler owners. |
