| Description of the problem | I have a jeep jk wrangler 2007 unlimited. I have owned it for almost 3 years and have never had this problem until now. I was filling my gas tank at my regular station at my regular pump (i live in a small town) and when the tank filled up gas began gushing out. I had to manually shut off the gas nozzle and got gas all over me. This could have been a tragic incident had a spark flown from a car passing by or someone thrown a cigarette out the window. I really thought nothing of it until the next day when i was looking through some forums i frequent (www. Jk-forum. Com) and saw there was a thread on this exact subject. This seems to be an issue with this model of jeep wrangler. Please have someone look in to this before someone gets seriously hurt (if they haven't already) in the meantime, i've tried 2 different stations and it's overflowed one time and the other time it did not. Thank you for your time, kollins bull a concerned consumer |
