| Description of the problem | About 3 months ago the jeep started spitting out a large amount of gasoline at the fuel pump 10 seconds after the pump shuts off. This happens at every fill now and is extremely dangerous as you have to start the car and drive with the rear corner covered in gasoline. I did research and this is a common chrysler/jeep issue yet they said it's not a covered repair on my year model and could cost $1000 to fix... This doesn't make sense. I urge all drivers with this issue to file a complaint as it's dangerous and should be covered under the warranty if not, recall. My jeep is stock everything and there was nothing that occurred out of the ordinary when this started happening. |
