| Description of the problem | Whenever i add gasoline (from any station), a considerable amount of fuel will slosh back out of the filler right before the pump kicks off. Checking with the dealer and other sources, it's a known problem. However, jeep is only concerned with fixing the 2007 and newer jk models. Their fix for those models is an extension of the warranty. My other sources say that it's rampant in years prior as well. The dealer service manager says it's the "rollover valve" that goes bad. The valve isn't repairable. The entire fuel tank needs replaced. |
