| Description of the problem | While i was filling up with gas the nozzle kicked off and fuel overflowed all over the side of my jeep and the ground. I thought it was the stations pump for the issue. A week later i was at another gas station filling up with gas and it did it again only this time gas spilled all over my jeep, pants and shoes. Every since the first episode it had happened every time i fill up. I have tried to hold the nozzle and pump it slowly, but it still happens. It is beyond frustrating to have to wash the side of my jeep off every time i fill up with gas. This could be a very big issue. I had the gas spill all over my jeans and shoes making them both flammable. Also, it could have splashed into my eyes. I think jeep needs to do something about this issue before someone gets hurt. |
