| Description of the problem | 2005 jeep wrangler unlimited - there is a back-splash issue when fueling the vehicle, every time! If you do not just stop it early (before it is full) it will splash back every time you fuel, sometimes quite a bit of fuel spilled. I have talked to several other owners of this make and model jeep and most of them said they have the same problem. I called chrysler about this and asked if this was an ongoing issue. The representative said they were not aware of the issue. I find that unlikely. |
