| Description of the problem | Whenever i fill the gas tank it overflows after the pump turns off. It happens at all gas stations. It has happened since the jeep was about 3 months old. The dealer told me it wouldn't be warrantied due to my using the vehicle off road so i have given up trying. I mostly don't fill it all the way anymore. But occasionally i forget and gas spills on the ground causing a serious fire hazard at the gas station as well as an environmental issue. After learning this is a very common problem, i have to ask why this isn't a recall yet? |
