Consumer Description

WHEN FILLING THE TANK ON THE VEHICLE THE NOZZLE FAILED TO SHUT OFF IN TIME TO PREVENT GAS FROM OVERFLOWING. FILLED UP AGAIN 2 DAYS LATER AT A DIFFERENT PUMP AND SET THE NOZZLE FOR LOW SPEED AND STILL OVERFLOWED OUT OF THE GAS TANK. UPON FURTHER RESEARCH THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEMS WITH 2007 DODGE NITROS AND NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED. HOWEVER, THE JEEP LIBERTY WHICH IS THE SIBLING VEHICLE HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THERE WAS A RECALL TO FIX THE PROBLEM. THE CAUSE OF THE PROBLEM IS A FAULTY ROLLOVER VALVE AND REQUIRES THE FUEL TANK TO BE REPLACED. *TR
