| Description of the problem | Within the past several months i cannot fill up my gas tank without gas spilling out before the tank cuts off. This happens at all gas stations every time i fill up. The dealer told me the tubing needed to be replaced so they did it. But, i still had the problem. Now they are telling me the charcoal cartridge is clogged and has blocked the vent into the gas tank. This will now need replacing. Because i am just outside my warranty, chrysler has agreed to cover most of the cost. Each time i have to pay a deductible because the dealer keeps deciding it is something else that is causing the problem. I have researched the problem online and it appears to be a common problem in jeeps. Why hasn't chrysler corrected this problem? I read there was a recall of the problem in '07-'08 jeeps, but only those years. If the problem was acknowledged, why is it still happening in '09 jeeps? |
