| Description of the problem | Fuel still overflowing during refueling... It's been going on for about a year, the gasoline spilling is destroying the paint finish and wheel flare of the jeep. In direct response to jeeps claim, my jeep has always been refueled by myself. I never put in fuel that was greater than 10% ethanol, and i do not overfill the tank. This tank is a defect and i haven't bothered going back to the dealer because it is not covered under warranty. If it was i would make an appt right away. All that gas spilling on the ground can't be a good thing for the environment and my skin when it splashes all over me... I guess i need to catch on fire before jeep will say they have a problem. It's no wonder their customer satisfaction ratings are the lowest in the industry. My initial complaint was about a year ago.. I guess i should make a bumper sticker.. "jeep: spitting gas since 2009". |
