2005 Jeep Wrangler complaints

EVERY TIME I FILL MY JEEP WITH GASOLINE, AT THE END OF FILLING THE TANK, GAS WILL COME UP OUT OF THE TANK, THROUGH THE GAS HOLE AND SPILL ON THE FLOOR. THIS COULD CAUSE A POTENTIAL FIRE. *TR

EVERY TIME I ATTEMPT TO FILL MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER'S TANK TO FULL, GAS SPILLS OUT OF THE FUEL TUBE AFTER THE PUMP SHUTS OFF AUTOMATICALLY. THIS IS AT LEAST 8OZ OF FUEL EASILY GUSHING OUT AND IS A FIRE HAZARD. I AM THE SECOND OWNER, AND HAVE ONLY OWNED IT SINCE 7/31/10. I HAVE FILLED THE TANK 4 TIMES AND ALL 4 TIMES THIS HAS OCCURRED. A GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALED A WRANGLER FORUM WHERE COUNTLESS JEEP OWNERS ARE EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE, CHRYSLER WILL NOT ISSUE A RECALL EVEN THOUGH THEY HAVE PAID FOR NUMEROUS GAS TANKS TO BE REPLACED. I HAVE NOT CALLED CHRYSLER YET, BECAUSE I ALREADY KNOW THE RUNAROUND I WILL ENCOUNTER BASED ON OTHER'S EXPERIENCE, AND AM WAITING UNTIL I HAVE SOME TIME OFF NEXT WEEK TO DEVOTE TO THIS FRUSTRATING PHONE CALL. *TR

TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2005 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE THE CONTACT ADDED FUEL TO THE GASOLINE TANK HE NOTICED THAT IT SPILLED BACK OUT. THE VEHICLE WILL BE TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE MANUFACTURER WILL BE NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,000 AND THE CURRENT MILEAGE WAS 67,493.

2005 JEEP WRANGLER, FUEL OVERFILLS EVERY TIME I GO TO THE PUMP. WHEN THE FUEL PUMP AUTO STOPS ABOUT A QUART OF FUEL SHOOTS OUT OF THE VEHICLE FILLER TUBE. THE FUEL HAS SPLASHED ALL OVER THE VEHICLE, AND MY CLOTHES. THIS OCCURS ON THE FIRST AUTO SHUT-OFF AND IS NOT DUE TO TOPPING-OFF THE TANK. THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THE JEEP WRANGLER AND IS WELL DOCUMENTED ON THE INTERNET. *TR

AT THE 65K MILE MARK EVERYTIME I FILL UP THE GAS WILL OVERFLOW AND SPILL OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE. FROM THE RESEARCH I HAVE DONE THERE ARE ALOT OF TJ OWNERS THAT THIS IS HAPPENING TO. IT IS A SAFETY PROBLEM BECAUSE IF I HAVE THE TOP OFF MY 3 YEAR OLD SON SIDES RIGHT ABOVE THE FUEL FILLER TUBE AND GAS COULD SPLASH ONTO HIM. *TR

I OWN A 2005 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON. IT IS UNMODIFIED. IT WILL CONSISTENTLY OVERFLOW AT THE GAS PUMP IF I FILL THE TANK. THEREFORE, I MUST MONITOR THE PUMP CLOSELY AND STOP SHORT OF FILLING THE TANK TO AVOID THIS PROBLEM. SOMETHING IS NOT WORKING CORRECTLY. *TR

MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER SPILLS GAS FROM THE FILL PIPE EVERYTIME IT IS FILLED UP. IM NOT TOPPING IT OFF. IT DOES THIS EVERYTIME FROM THE FIRST SHUTOFF. ITS NOT THE NOZZLE AS THIS HAPPENS AT ALL DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. I FOUND ON JEEP FORUM THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH ALL WRANGLERS. THIS CAN BE A SAFETY CONCERN AS A FIRE COULD HAPPEN OR SKIN IRRITATION CAN OCCUR AS SOMETIMES I GET SPLASHED WITH FUEL. *TR

OVER FLOWING FUEL FILLER TUBE WHEN PUTTING IN GAS. *TR

2006 GMC SIERRA, WAS TOWING A 2005 JEEP WRANGLER USING A TOW BAR. THE TRANSFER CASE OF THE JEEP ENGAGED CAUSING THE WHEELS OF THE JEEP TO LOCK UP. THE VEHICLE IN TOW SPUN AROUND, TRAVELED OFF THE LEFT SIDE OF THE ROADWAY. THE JEEP STRUCK THE CONCRETE WALL AND ROLLED OVER AND BROKE FREE OF UNIT 1.*BF (OHIO TRAFFIC CRASH REPORT # 10-0435-90)*JB UPDATED 08/06/10 *BF

WE OWN A 2005 JEEP TJ WRANGLER. WHEN HITTING A BUMP IT SHAKES VIOLENTLY AND YOU HAVE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP BEFORE IT WILL STOP. I HAVE DONE A LOT OF RESEARCH ON THIS PROBLEM AND FIND THAT IT IS VERY COMMON WITH THIS YEAR AND MODEL OF JEEP. WE HAVE REPLACED THE STEERING DAMPER, SWAY BAR ENDS, TRACK BAR BUSHINGS, ALL NEW SHOCKS, BRAKES AND ROTORS, TIRES BALANCED AND ROTATED SEVERAL TIMES WITH NO AVAIL. THIS IS A SERIOUS ISSUE AND WE CANNOT SEEM TO GET ANY ANSWERS. THE JEEP HAS 60,00 MILES ON IT AND IS COMPLETELY STOCK WITH NO MODIFICATIONS ON IT. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS DRIVE, BUT MY ONLY VEHICLE FOR TRANSPORTATION TO MY JOB. MY WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER SUSPENSION AND STEERING SO EVERYTHING I HAVE DONE HAS BEEN AT MY OWN EXPENSE. THIS ISSUE CAN CAUSE A SERIOUS WRECK AND FOR A YOUNG DRIVER COULD BE FATAL. CAN YOU PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS SITUATION. WE ARE STUCK WITH WHAT WE HAVE, AS WE ARE STILL PAYING ON IT. WE CAN GET NO ANSWERS, EXCEPT KEEP REPLACING PARTS WITH BETTER QUALITY ONES. WHICH BRINGS THE QUESTIONS UP, WHY DID THEY USE LESS THAN GOOD QUALITY WHEN IT WAS BUILT. *TR

I BOUGHT MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON MARCH 1ST, 2010. I BOUGHT IT USED. EVERY TIME I HAVE FILLED THE TANK AT A GAS STATION, IT OVERFLOWS. THE ONLY FIX IS TO NOT FILL IT UP, BUT I LIVE IN NEW JERSEY, AND GAS STATION ATTENDANTS PUMP OUR GAS AND THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO NOT DO IT. *TR

2005 JEEP WRANGLER EXPERIENCES HIGH SPEED WOBBLE EVERY DAY AT SPEEDS ABOVE 45 MPH. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEP VEHICLES. INTERNET USERS REFER TO THE CONDITION AS "DEATH WOBBLE." I WOULD NOT WANT THAT NAME ASSOCIATED WITH ANY OF MY PRODUCTS. I GOT RID OF A 2001 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE THAT DID THE SAME THING. THE STEERING WHEEL SHAKES SO VIOLENTLY THAT THE BRAKES MUST BE APPLIED AT HIGH SPEED TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THIS IS DANGEROUS FOR VEHICLES FOLLOWING AND COULD CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. I ABSOLUTELY DO NOT LET MY WIFE OR KIDS DRIVE THIS CAR. I DON'T WANT TO BE THE ONE WHO CONFIRMS THE DEATH WOBBLE MONIKER. THE FAILURE OCCURS DAILY. I HAVE BALANCED THE TIRES REPEATEDLY AND ROTATED AND CROSS ROTATED TIRES. EVEN BROKEN DOWN TIRES AND ROTATED THEM ON RIMS TO ACHIEVE OPTIMAL BALANCE. I WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER JEEP PRODUCT. THEY NEED TO STEP UP AND FIX THIS PROBLEM. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL MY JEEP UP WITH GAS IT OVER FLOWS. IT DOES NOT MATTER WHAT GAS STATION I GO TO, OR HOW SLOWLY I FILL THE TANK. GASOLINE SPILLS OUT ONTO THE GROUND EVERY SINGLE TIME. *TR

MY JEEP'S GAS FILLER OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK WITH GAS. NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION I GO TO OR IF I FILL IT SLOWLY OR FAST. *TR

MY JEEP WRANGLER SPILLS GAS FROM THE FILL PIPE EVERYTIME IT IS FILLED UP. IM NOT TOPPING IT OFF. IT DOES THIS EVERYTIME FROM THE FIRST SHUTOFF. ITS NOT THE NOZZLE AS THIS HAPPENS AT ALL DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS. I FOUND ON JEEP FORUM THIS SEEMS TO BE A COMMON PROBLEM WITH ALL WRANGLERS. THIS CAN BE A SAFETY CONCERN AS A FIRE COULD HAPPEN OR SKIN IRRITATION CAN OCCUR AS SOMETIMES I GET SPLASHED WITH FUEL. *TR

GASOLINE SPILLS OUT OF TANK AFTER EVERY FILL UP. GAS SPRAYS ON GROUND, CAR AND PEOPLE. *TR

2005 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON UNLIMITED. NO EXCESSIVE WEAR OR TEAR. VEHICLE HAS BEEN SPLASHING GAS EVERY TIME THE TANK IS TOPPED OFF FOR OVER A YEAR. THIS CAUSES ANYWHERE FROM A HALF PINT TO A QUART OF GAS TO SPRAY AND RUN DOWN THE SIDE OF THE JEEP. AS FAR AS I KNOW JEEP HAS NOT ISSUED A RECALL TO FIX WHAT I SEE AS A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY ISSUE. *TR

I BOUGHT MY 2005 JEEP BRAND NEW OFF THE LOT. WITHIN A YEAR I BEGAN TO NOTICE THE "DEATH WOBBLE". I HAD BEEN A VERY MODERATE DRIVER, AND HAD LESS THAN 10,000 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. WHEN I TOOK THE JEEP TO THE DEALER, THEY REPLACED THE STABILIZER ARM, WHICH THE WARRANTY COVERED, BUT THE PROBLEM REMAINED. THE DEALER THEN ROTATED AND BALANCED MY TIRES AND ADJUSTED MY ALIGNMENT. THEY CHARGED ME OVER $200 FOR THAT. THIS SEEMED TO MASK THE PROBLEM FOR ABOUT A YEAR, THEN THE "DEATH WOBBLE" RETURNED. I TOOK THE JEEP TO A DIFFERENT DEALERSHIP WHERE I WAS PROMPTLY SOLD 2 NEW TIRES (STOCK UNIROYAL TIGER PAWS @ $104 EACH) AND A STEERING DAMPENER. TOTAL COST THIS TIME WAS WELL OVER $500. THIS TOOK CARE OF THE WOBBLE FOR ABOUT A YEAR. NOW THE WOBBLE IS BACK, AND I'M WONDERING WHAT TO DO. I CAN'T AFFORD ANOTHER DEALER TO FLEECE ME AGAIN, AND I HEAR JEEP ISN'T ACKNOWLEDGING THIS WIDE-SPREAD PROBLEM. THEY SHOULD ISSUE A RECALL. IN THE MEANTIME THOUGH, I LOVE MY JEEP AND WANT IT FIXED. I DON'T WANT IT TO KILL ME OR ANYONE ELSE. DOES ANYONE KNOW OF ANYTHING THAT CAN BE DONE TO RESOLVE THIS PROBLEM? I CAN'T AFFORD $200-$500 EVERY YEAR ON BAND-AID SOLUTIONS. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 JEEP WRANGLER ROCKY MOUNTAIN EDITION. EVERY TIME I FILL UP A THE GAS STATION GAS OVER FLOWS. IT DOESN'T MATTER IF I BARELY SQUEEZE THE HANDLE, OR LEAVE IT ON THE AUTO FLOW NOTCHES. IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS. *TR

TJ WRANGLER JEEP. WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK AT THE END OF THE FILLING IT SPILLS GAS OUT OF THE TANK ALL OVER THE PLACE. THE GAS WILL GUSH OUT AND GET ALL OVER THE JEEP AND THE PERSON FILLING THE TANK. *TR

A VALVE INSIDE THE FUEL TANK IS FAULTY LEADING TO FUEL SPILLAGE AFTER THE GAS NOZZLE CLICKS OFF DUE TO PRESSURE BUILDUP. THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS CAR, AND COMPLETELY UNACCEPTABLE AND IT SEEMS JEEP DOES NOT WANT TO DO ANYTHING. THIS IS A SAFETY HAZARD, AS FUEL SPILLS ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE AND GROUND. THIS IS ALSO AN EMISSIONS ISSUE. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL THE GAS TANK, IT OVERFLOWS AFTER THE NOZZLE CLICKS CLOSED. THE ONLY WAY I'VE FOUND TO PREVENT THIS IS TO 'GUESS' WHEN THE TANK IS ALMOST FULL, THEN PUT MY EAR TO THE OPENING AND LISTEN FOR FUEL COMING TO THE TOP. THAT'S DANGEROUS AND SHOULD BE UNNECESSARY. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING OVER THE LAST TWO YEARS. *TR

AT THE END OF FUELING FUEL SHOOTS FROM FILLER NECK AFTER FUEL PUMP SHUT OFF. *TR

MY FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME I FILL UP, SPILLING GASOLINE ALL OVER MY JEEP, GAS CAP, AND GROUND. CAN BE VERY DANGEROUS, ESPECIALLY IF STANDING BY GAS TANK WHILE FILLING UP. WHAT IF A SMALL KID WALKS UP TO MY CAR WHEN IT SPILLS OUT? I SEE 86+ COMPLAINTS ON THIS SITE FOR THIS EXACT PROBLEM AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE! IT'S BEEN HAPPENING TO ME FOR WELL OVER 3 YEARS. *TR

EVERY TIME I REFUEL MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER A LARGE AMOUNT OF FUEL SPITS OUT OF THE FUEL FILLER ONTO THE GROUND. IT APPEARS TO BE A PROBLEM WITH THE DESIGN OF THE CHECK VALVE BUILT INTO THE FUEL TANK. THIS MANUFACTURING DEFECT IS A MAJOR FIRE HAZARD AS WELL AS AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD. *TR

2005 JEEP WRANGLER FUEL SPILLING WHEN FUELED. AT AROUND 20,000 MILES EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE TANK GAS IS SPIT OUT. I HAVE NEVER HAD THIS PROBLEM WITH ANY OTHER VEHICLE I HAVE DRIVEN. I EVEN TRIED RUNNING THE NOZZLE AT THE SLOWEST SPEED POSSIBLE, AND IT WILL STILL SPIT SOME OUT. TALKING TO OTHER JEEP OWNERS WE HAVE DETERMINED THAT THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE EFFECTING MOSTLY 2004 WRANGLERS AND NEWER. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE, IF NOT CAREFUL IT CAN COVER THE PERSON FUELING WITH GAS, AND OTHER PEOPLE IF THEY ARE CLOSE ENOUGH, AND IT WASTES PRECIOUS GAS. *TR

FUEL OVERFLOW WHEN REFUELING. *TR

WHEN FILLING UP WITH GAS, THE GAS PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF THE GAS FLOW FROM THE PUMP AND THEN THE GAS TANK WILL SPIT OUT GAS FROM THE VEHICLE'S TANK. *TR

ON MARCH 13, 2010, MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER DISPLAYED A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. THE CODE WAS P0302. WHEN CLEARED, THE CODE DID NOT RETURN AND THE JEEP RAN NORMALLY UNTIL APPROXIMATELY MARCH 26, WHEN IT WENT INTO A "LIMP MODE" (REV LIMITER MOVED TO 2500 RPM) AFTER BEING REVVED TO 4500 RPM. WHEN RESTARTED, THE VEHICLE RAN FINE, ALTHOUGH THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE CODE WAS P0344. WHEN THE CODE WAS CLEARED, IT DID NOT REAPPEAR. HOWEVER, REVVING THE ENGINE TO 4500 RPM IN ALL GEARS EXCEPT REVERSE (N-1-2-3-4-5-6) REPRODUCED THE ABOVE RESULTS WITHOUT FAIL. ON MARCH 28, A REPLACEMENT CAMSHAFT POSITION SENSOR WAS ORDERED BY MYSELF, AND WAS INSTALLED ON APRIL 2. AFTER THE INSTALL, REVVING THE ENGINE TO 4500 RPM ONCE AGAIN PUT THE VEHICLE INTO A "LIMP MODE". I MADE THE DECISION TO TAKE THE JEEP TO SOUTH POINT CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP IN AUSTIN, TX. ON MAY 6, I WAS INFORMED THAT STANDARD DIAGNOSTICS COULD NOT FIND THE ISSUE, AND THE DEALER REQUESTED 4 HOURS OF TEAR-DOWN TIME TO INSPECT THE CAMSHAFT AREA FOR DAMAGE BASED ON RECOMMENDATIONS FROM CHRYSLER. UPON APPROVAL, IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT THE OIL PUMP GEAR AND CAMSHAFT WERE HEAVILY DAMAGED POSSIBLY DUE TO CAUSES OUTLINED IN NHTSA ITEM # 10013784. WHEN CHRYSLER WAS CONTACTED FOR THIS, THEY INFORMED ME THAT, ALONG WITH THE FACT THAT THE VIN OF MY JEEP IS OUTSIDE OF THE VIN RANGE OF THE TSB, THERE WAS NO "DEFINITIVE PROOF" THAT THE OIL PUMP GEAR HAD DAMAGED THE CAMSHAFT AS OPPOSED TO VICE VERSA AND THEY WOULD BE UNABLE TO ASSIST IN THE REPAIR

MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON OVERFLOWS FUEL EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE GAS TANK. FOR SOME REASON THE GAS PUMP WILL NEVER STOP FILLING THE TANK AUTOMATICALLY UNTIL A LARGE AMOUNT OF FUEL COMES SPILLING OUT OF THE FILL TUBE. I HAVE READ MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ISSUE ON JEEP FORUMS ONLINE, AND FEEL THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD BE RECALLING AFFECTED MODELS TO FIX THIS ISSUE. *TR

I HAVE A 2005 JEEP WRANGLER ROCKY MOUNTAIN EDITION. EVERY FILL UP RESULTS IN AN OVERFLOW OF GAS BECAUSE THE NOZZLE DOES NOT AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF UNTIL THE TANK OVERFLOWS. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW MONTHS AND WAS NEVER A PROBLEM BEFORE. *TR

THE FUEL TANK OF MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME I FILL IT UP. *TR

EVERY TIME WE FILL UP WITH GAS, IT OVERFLOWS OR SPRAYS OUT WHEN THE NOZZLE CLICKS OFF. WE TOOK IT IN TO GET IT WARRANTIED, AND JEEP SAID IT WAS OUR FAULT FROM OFFROADING. HOW COULD THAT BE WHEN IT HAS DONE IT SINCE BRAND NEW? THEY INFORMED US IT WILL COST US ABOUT $1000.00 TO FIX, I THINK IT IS A DEFECT. *TR

WHEN FUELING MY VEHICLE, THE PUMP STOPS BUT GAS FLOWS OUT OF THE FILLER. I HAVE TO FILL THE TANK VERY SLOWLY TO PREVENT THIS FROM HAPPENING. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I GET FUEL. *TR

MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER SPORT HAS A FUEL TANK OVERFLOW ISSUE. WHEN FILLING THE TANK UP IT INEVITABLY OVERFLOWS REGARDLESS OF WHAT STATION, EXISTING FUEL LEVEL OR TYPE OF FILLER NOZZLE. IT IS ALSO MY UNDERSTANDING THAT THIS ISSUE IS RATHER WIDESPREAD. I INITIALLY BELIEVED THAT SOMETHING HAD SIMPLY BROKEN, BUT AFTER A BIT OF RESEARCH I AM NOT ALONE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS. *TR

MY GAS TANK OVERFLOWS AFTER THE MACHINE CLICKS OFF. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME IN MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER WITH 28K MILES ON IT. *TR

MY 2005 JEEP WRANGLER WILL HAVE GAS( FUEL ) SPILLAGE WHEN FILLING TANK. FUEL NOZZLE WILL DISCHARGE FUEL ONTO GROUND AND SIDE OF VEHICLE AT THE END OF FUELING. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME. THIS HAPPENS IF NOZZLE SHUTS OFF BY IT'S SELF OR IF I AM FILLING . *TR

ON 4/5/2010 I PURCHASED A USED 2005 JEEP WRANGLER. I DROVE IT FROM IL TO PA. DURING THAT DRIVE I NEEDED TO GET GAS 3 TIMES. EACH TIME I FILLED THE GAS THE TANK OVERFILLED AND FUEL WAS SPILLED. I WENT ONLINE TODAY TO CHECK ON THIS ISSUE AND FOUND MANY OTHERS SEEM TO BE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM. *TR

WHEN FILLING GAS TANK, GAS SPRAYS OUT WITH FORCE WHEN TANK IS FULL BEFORE GAS PUMP SHUTS OFF.

FUEL SPILL OUT OF JEEP WHEN FUELING. FUEL SPLASHES OUT ABOUT 1 PINT. ON JEEP, PERSON AND GROUND. CLEAN-UP WAS NEEDED.

EVERYTIME THE GAS TANK IS FILLED UP, FUEL COMES LAUNCHING OUT FROM AROUND THE PUMP HANDLE SPRAYING ANYONE STANDING WITHIN A COUPLE OF FEET OF THE PUMP. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME THE TANK IS FILLED, AT EVERY GAS STATION. JEEP HAS SUGGESTED A REPLACEMENT TANK, BUT WITH NO ASSURANCES THAT IT WILL SOLVE THE PROBLEM. THE RESULTS OF A ONLINE SEARCH INDICATES A REPLACEMENT TANK WILL NOT SOLVE THE PROBLEM.

2005 JEEP WRANGLER LJ/TJ RUBICON UNLIMITED WHEN FILLING UP WITH GASOLINE THE TANK OVERFLOWS OUT OF THE VEHICLE SPRAYING ONTO THE OPERARTOR OF THE GAS PUMP AND FLOODING THE IMMEDIATE AREA AND ON THE GROUND. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND THE OPERATOR OF THE PUMP IS COVERED IN GAS AND FUMES THIS COULD CAUSE A FIRE AND DAMAGE TO THE SKIN AND EYES; IN WORSE CASE SCENARIO AN EXPLOSION IF A CELL PHONE IS IN ONES POCKET OR NEARBY. PLEASE RECALL THESE VEHICLES IMMEDIATELY; IT HAPPENS TO ALMOST EVERY JEEP WRANGLER AND EVENTUALLY WILL EFFECT ALL. THIS IS NOT FROM TOPPING OFF OR USING A HIGH PRESSURE GAS NOZZLE OR ONE GAS STATION. THIS HAPPENS NO MATTER WHERE I AM AND IF I DON'T TIME IF CORRECTLY GASOLINE WILL BE ALL OVER THE PLACE. ALTHOUGH NOT SERIOUS, AT ONE TIME GASOLINE DID SPRAY ENOUGH ON A WINDY DAY TO HIT ME IN THE EYE CAUSING A BURNING SENSATION AND REDNESS OBVIOUSLY I COULD NOT OPERATE THE VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. IF A YOUNG CHILD IS NEAR BY THIS WOULD BE A SERIOUS ISSUE.

FUEL SPILL WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK. HAPPENS EVERY TIME. SHUTOFF DOES NOT WORK
