| Description of the problem | I was at the gas station filling up my 2008 jeep wrangler unlimited sahara when the click of the gas pump that lets you know your done filling the tank came on and all of a sudden gas starting overflowing in a large puddle all over the side of my jeep. I thought it was a fluke of some sort so i didn't think much of it. Then the next time i filled up i had the same situation happen and the same amount came pouring out. After this i knew that there was a problem and i tried filling my tank slowly and it still made no difference in the spillage. I have had this issue occur numerous times since purchasing the vehicle and feel as though it should be recalled. I have contacted the dealership regarding this issue and they state that they have no knowledge of the issue. I have seen numerous other jeep owners have the same issue. This is a safety hazard and should be an issue fixed by chrysler. |
