NHTSA Complaint #10871200 — 2006 JEEP LIBERTY

EVERY TIME I FILL THE GAS TANK (PARKED WITH ENGINE TURNED OFF), GAS SPEWS FROM THE FILLER TUBE, RUNS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE CAR, POOLS ON THE GROUND AND UNDERNEATH THE CAR, CREATING AN EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION. GAS CONTINUES TO SPEW OUT AND ALL OVER THE AREA UNTIL I DESPERATELY GRAB THE GAS PUMP NOZZLE HANDLE AND MANUALLY DISENGAGE IT! I NOW NEVER CAN DEPEND UPON AUTO SHUT-OFF!! I HAVE TO MANUALLY OPERATE THE PUMP NOZZLE, NOT TAKE MY HAND OFF IT, LISTEN TO THE GUSHING TONE SOUND AS THE TANK NEARS THE FULL POINT AND SHUT OFF THE NOZZLE BY HAND WHEN I HEAR THE GAS GETTING READY TO SPEW ALL OVER THE PLACE!! THIS IS SO DANGEROUS!!!!! OVER THE COURSE OF SEVERAL YEARS, I THOUGHT THIS PROBLEM WAS JUST UNIQUE TO MY CAR BUT AFTER TALKING WITH TWO OTHER JEEP LIBERTY OWNER ACQUAINTANCES, I DISCOVERED THEY HAD THE SAME DANGEROUS SAFETY PROBLEM WITH THEIR JEEP LIBERTY, AS WELL. THIS IS SO DANGEROUS.... IT NEEDS TO BE RECALLED AND FIXED!!! ("WHEN DID THIS HAPPEN FIELD BELOW: JULY 2009 TO PRESENT")
