| Description of the problem | When filling the jeep wrangler 2008 (build date 6/08), gas comes shooting out the filler tube right after the gas pump shuts off. I'm guessing approx. 12 oz. Of gas comes out. Chrysler extended the warranty for wranglers with a build date of march 1, 2007 to march 31, 2008. My build date is june, 2008 and has the exact same issue. I read that this was investigated by nhtsa and they found this not to be a safety issue yet talking on a cell phone while pumping gas is? This really needs to be addressed immediately. |
