| Description of the problem | I just bought this jeep 2 weeks ago, every time i go to fill up with gas, no matter which gas station i am at the gas always comes spewing out. I have tried many things, even positioning the gas handle at different angles ect. I have done a lot of research and it seems this is a faulty fuel tank/evap. That needs to be replaced to fix this. I have talked to dealer ships saying that the tank needs to be replaced. In my opinion this should be a recall. My jeep only has 37000 miles on it, and i already have to replace the fuel tank!? I think jeep/chrysler needs to foot the bill on this one... |
