| Product type code | VEHICLE |
| Description of the problem | When filling the fuel tank on my 06 rubicon unlimited wrangler. Before the pump automatically stops pumping the gas will spill out from the filler tube. The amount of fuel spillage can be up to about a quart. This happens every time i try to fill the gas tank. According to the dealer the only fix is to replace the entire fuel tank. This repair would no be covered under warranty. I believe having fuel rush out of the filling nozzle while pumping gas is a very dangerous problem. |
