| Description of the problem | When i fill my gas tank it overflows and spills out of the gas tank regularly. So i wait until the low fuel light comes up before refilling. I know my tank holds approx. 19 gallons so when i'm filling up, i have to stop the pump at 16 gallons and then slowly squeeze the handle up to about 18 gallons. Even then sometimes this still causes the fuel to overflow and spill all over the side of the jeep and onto the ground. The automatic shutoffs on the nozzles never kick in. I've had the same problem at multiple gas stations. I know this is not an isolated incident as two of my personal friends have similar vehicles to mine and we have the same exact problem. In fact, on jeep wrangler 2007-2010 message forums, the issue appears to happening very often to other drivers as well. |
