Consumer Description

I WAS PARKED IN MY LOT AND A NEIGHBOR DROPPED A CIGARETTE BEHIND MY 1999 JEEP. THERE WAS UNGODLY GAS SMELL AND THE PUDDLE OF GAS THAT IS LEAKING FROM TANK IGNITED. I WAS LUCKILY ENOUGH THAT I CAUGHT IT AT THAT TIME OR IT WOULD HAVE EXPLODED. I JUST BOUGHT IT AND NEVER SMELLED GAS OR THOUGHT THE TANK WAS LEAKING. I HAD TO SPENLEAKING. IT IS GOING TO COST OVER 500 DOLLARS FOR THIS TO BE FIXED PLUS A TOW BAR. PLEASE HELP ME TO SEE IF JEEP COMPANY IS RESPONSIBLE DUE TO RECALL. *TR
