NHTSA Complaint #11104841 — 2018 JEEP WRANGLER

CAR LEAKING FUEL THE CAR TURNED OF WHILE APPROACHING A STOP LIGHT (~15MPH). I PUT IT PARK AND STARTED IT AGAIN, NO PROBLEM. AS I APPROACHED THE NEXT STOP LIGHT, IT TURNED OFF AGAIN. THIS TIME IT TOOK CRANKED FOR ABOUT 4 SECONDS BEFORE STARTING. I HEADED TOWARDS THE NEAREST PARKING LOT AND THE CAR STARTED HESITATING. WHEN I PULLED IN I FOUND THAT IT WAS LEAKING GAS FROM WHAT APPEARED TO BE ABOVE THE GAS TANK. IT PUDDLED UP BEHIND THE PASSENGER REAR OF THE VEHICLE. GOT IT TOWED TO THE DEALER FROM THERE. - NO GAS LEAKED WHERE IT WAS PREVIOUSLY PARKED FOR OVER 6 HOURS. - PROBLEMS STARTED ONLY A COUPLE MINUTES AFTER STARTING IT - CAR HAD A FULL TANK OF GAS, FILLED IT THAT MORNING. - AS THE TOW DRIVER GOT IT LIFTED, A LOT MORE GAS STARTED LEAKING OUT. (WHILE ONLY THE FRONT END WAS ON THE FLAT BED). - ABOUT A HALF A GALLON OF GAS LEAKED OUT (THAT I KNOW OF) *BF UPDATE 11/2/18*JB
