2006 JEEP WRANGLER Fuelpropulsion System Problems

Vehicle’s inlet check valve for gas tank does not work properly when tank is filled at fueling stations. Does not trigger gas pumps to stop causing overflow and spilling on person / clothing / vehicle and gas station property. This is a known issue for 2005-2006 Jeep Wranglers. The issue was repaired by manufacturer for newer Jeep Wranglers. Currently no manufacturer ownership on remediation issue and/or recall for 2005-2006 model year Jeep Wranglers.

WHEN FILLING UP THE GAS TANK WITH FUEL, THE FUEL SPLASHES OUT GOING OVER ME, MY FENDERS, SIDE OF JEEP AND THE GROUND. I BELIEVE THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE.AND JEEP SHOULD BE LIABLE. GOD FORBID IF THIS CAUSED A FATALITY.

FUEL OVERFLOWS WHEN THE TANK IS FILLED. THE AUTO-SHUTOFF DOESN'T WORK. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK, NO MATTER WHAT GAS STATION. THIS IS A SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD.

EVERY TIME I FILL THE JEEP UP WITH GAS, LARGE AMOUNT OF FUEL SPILLS OUT BEFORE THE FILL GUN CAN STOP IT. I HAVE BEEN TO MANY DIFFERENT GAS STATION AND IT HAPPENS AT ALL OF THEM. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS, MANY OTHERS WITH MY YEAR JEEP HAVE FILLED COMPLAINTS AND GOT THE ISSUE FIX.

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY FUEL TANK, 1/2 A SECOND AFTER THE PUMP SHUTS OFF, A SIGNIFICANT OF FUEL COMES RUSHING OUT ON TO THE GROUND.

WHEN FILLING THE WRANGLER WITH FUEL, THE TANK CONSISTENTLY AND REGULARLY OVERFILLS AND SPITS FUEL OUT OF THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK TOWARDS THE GAS PUMP NOZZLE, THE PERSON FILLING THE WRANGLER, THE EXTERIOR OF THE WRANGLER, AND ONTO THE FLOOR NEXT TO THE WRANGLER. THERE IS A TSB FOR REPAIR OF THIS ISSUE, BUT MY YEAR IS NOT AUTOMATICALLY COVERED BY THAT TSB. PLEASE HELP.

WHEN FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK, IT WILL EITHER CLICK-OFF EVERY 2 TENTHS OF A GALLON OR SPILL FUEL OUT WHEN ATTEMPTING TO FILL AT THE SLOWEST RATE. THERE ARE NO KINKS OR ETC IN THE FILLER PIPE OR VENT PIPE.

DURING PUMPING OF GASOLINE INTO THE TANK WHEN THE TANKS FILLS, GAS SPEWS FROM THE TANK EVERYTIME. THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN WITH EITHER OF THE OTHER 3 JEEPS THAT I OWN. THIS CAUSES A POTENTIAL FOR FIRE AND/OR INJURY DUE TO GASOLINE SPLASHING ON HANDS, ARMS AND CLOTHES.

WHEN I FILL UP WITH GAS AT A STATION, AFTER THE PUMP CLICKS, ABOUT A PINT OF GAS SPLASHES OUT OF THE FILLER AND DOWN THE BODY ONTO THE GROUND.

JEEP WRANGLER 2005 AND 2006. WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK AT THE GAS STATION, GASOLINE WILL OVERFLOW MOMENTARILY, SPILLING GASOLINE ON THE GROUND FROM THE GAS TANK FILLER TUBE WHEN THE GAS PUMP FUEL NOZZLE SHUTS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE 2005 AND 2006 MODEL YEAR WRANGLERS I HAVE OWN(ED). REVIEWING COMMENTS ON THE INTERNET THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE MODEL YEARS. AN ADDITIONAL PROBLEM IS THE INTERNAL STICKING (DUE TO INTERNAL VALVE PLUG EXPANSION) CHECK VALVE THAT CAUSES SPILLAGE ALSO MAY NOT PERMIT PROPER FUEL FILLING.

GAS TANK BLOWS OUT A LARGE AMOUNT OF GAS AFTER FILLING UP.

WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK TO FULL GASOLINE WILL SHOOT OUT OF THE FILLER HOLE AND OVER THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THE PROBLEM IS CONSISTENT (I CAN ONLY RECALL 4 TIMES WHEN IT DID NOT OCCUR SINCE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IN 2015 WITH 82,000 MILES ON IT. IN ALL CASES THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY, ENGINE WAS OFF, PARKED NEXT TO THE GASOLINE PUMP.

JEEP WRANGLER X 2006 AUTOMATIC. STHALL WHILE RUNNING IN HIGHWAY .THEN WOULD NOT START ,NO CRANK. NO FUEL PUMP START , NO PANEL INDICATORS WORKING. SHOWS A 06- 02 CODE ERROR IN PANEL. MEAN FUELING CALIBRATION ERROR. 3 OR 4 DAYS LATER IT START LIKE NEW.

WHEN REFUELING THE VEHICLE, GASOLINE WITH SHOOT OUT OF THE FUEL FILL WHEN THE TANK IS NEARLY FULL. FROM SPEAKING WITH OTHER JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED OWNERS (2005 & 2006 MODELS ONLY), THIS ISSUE IS COMMONPLACE AND UNADDRESSED BY JEEP. IT IS REPORTEDLY DUE TO A DESIGN FLAW IN THE OVERFLOW VALUE IN THE FILLER TUBE. EACH TIME THIS HAPPENS, APPROXIMATELY 1/4 OF GASOLINE WILL FLOW OUT OF THE TANK BEFORE THE GAS PUMP CLICKS OFF. THIS HAS EXPOSED ME TO GASOLINE ON MY SKIN, AS WELL AS SPILLED FUEL ON THE GROUND. THERE IS RISK DUE TO EXPOSURE TO ETHANOL AND OTHER CHEMICALS, ENVIRONMENTAL EXPOSURE WITH GASOLINE ON THE GROUND, AND FIRE RISK.

EVERY TIME I FILL MY JEEP, IT OVERFLOWS AND SPILLS FUEL ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY JEEP AND THE GROUND BEFORE THE RULE PUMP SHUTS OFF. I HAVE THIS ISSUE WITH EVERY FILL UP AT ANY FUEL STATION I USE. IT WILL SOMETIMES OVERFILL AND SPILL ENOUGH OUT AS TO NECESSITATE THE USE OF A FUEL SPILL CLEANUP KIT AND I'VE HAD SEVERAL SHOES AND PANTS RUINED FROM SPOUTING FUEL. I HAVE HAD SEVERAL OTHER JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS OF THE SAME YEAR AND MODEL COMPLAIN OF THIS EXACT PROBLEM. I FEEL THIS IS NOT ONLY AN ENVIRONMENTAL PROBLEM, BUT A FIRE SAFETY PROBLEM AS WELL. IT CANNOT BE SAFE TO HAVE A SYSTEM THAT OVERFILLS AND SPILLS GASOLINE EVERY SINGLE TIME YOU FILL YOUR VEHICLE CREATING A SIGNIFICANT RISK OF FIRE.

2006 TJ FUEL OVERFLOW WHEN FILLING TANK. FUEL SPITS OUT OF GAS TANK ON TO PERSON HOLDING THE GAS HANDLE PUMP WHEN FILLING. AUTO IS OFF AND STATIONARY. IT HAPPENS EVERY TIME.

I HAVE A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER TJ I BOUGHT USED HAVE HAD IT GOING ON 6 MONTHS AND EVERYTIME I GO TO THE GAS STATION AND FILL UP WHEN THE PUMP KICKS OFF THE GAS SPEWS OUT ALL DOWN THE SIDE OF MY JEEP FLARES AND THE JEEP ITSELF AND DOWN ONTO THE GROUND WHEN I FILLED IT UP THE FIRST TIME IT WAS ALL OVER MY HAND MY LEG AND RUINED MY SHOES!! I GOT ON A JEPP FORUM AND WAS TOLD TO GET A GMC FILLER HOSE WITH A CHECK VALVE AND I DID AND PAID TO HAVE IT INSTALLED AND I STILL HAVE THE SAME ISSUE. I HAVE DONE A LOT OF RESEARCH ON THE INTERNET AND I AM NOT ALONE HERE THIS IS A HUGE ISSUE AND IT IS GOING TO LEAD TO SOMEONE GETTING HURT OR WORSE KILLED!! IS THIS WHAT IT'S GOING TO TAKE...

EVERY TIME I FILL MY JEEP WITH GASOLINE, WHEN IT REACHES IT'S CAPACITY, GAS SPEWS OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE AND ONTO THE REAR FENDER FLARE AND SUBSEQUENTLY ONTO THE GROUND. THIS IS NOT A NEW ISSUE WITH THESE JEEPS AND IT IS A FIX THAT SHOULD BE DONE BY THE MANUFACTURER DUE TO THE OBVIOUS SAFETY CONCERNS. THIS IS A FIRE HAZARD AND COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY IF NOT CORRECTED. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL THE VEHICLE UP WITH GAS AND IT'S RIDICULOUS.

GAS SPILLS OUT WHEN FILLING TANK INSTEAD OF CLICK GAS PUMP OFF AUTOMATICALLY

MY JEEP WRANGLER SPEWS GAS ON EVERY FILL UP. RUINED PANTS, SHOES. FEAR GAS IS GOING TO IGNITE FROM HOT EXHAUST. DOES EVERY EVERY TIME. SOMEONE GOING TO GET HURT SERIOUSLY. EVERYONE IS PURCHASING GM FILLER TUBE WITH FLAPPER TO REPLACE JEEP FILLER. DONE SO FREQUENTLY CAN'T GET PART. JEEP COULD FIX EASILY INSTALLING 20 DOLLAR FILLER TUBE OR PUTTING NEW VALVE IN TANK. THIS IS SERIOUS.

WHEN YOU FILL UP THE GAS TANK THE AUTOMATIC STOP DOESN'T WORK AND THE GAS SPILLS OUT ALL OVER THE PLACE. I BOUGHT THE JEEP USED ON JULY 11, 2014, AND I JUST HAVE NEVER DONE ANYTHING ABOUT IT. WHEN I BOUGHT IT, IT HAD 35,000 MILES, NOW I HAVE 70,666 MILES. I WENT ONLINE AND ON THE JEEP FORUM AND YOUTUBE SOME PEOPLE HAD FIXES BY BUYING A GM NEW FUEL FILLER HOSE PART #15131046 AND REPLACING IT AND IT SEEMS TO HAVE WORKED. ACCORDING TO WHAT I'VE READ THE WARRENTIES WERE EXTENDED FOR 2007 AND OVER BUT NOT THE 2006'S.

FUEL TANK FILLER NECK SPILLS GASOLINE FORCEFULLY OVER THE SIDE, FENDER FLARE AND GROUND, WHICH REQUIRES A SPILL KIT TO BE USED TO CLEANUP THE PUDDLE CREATED BY THIS SPILL. THIS PROBLEM HAS OCCURRED BEFORE AND WAS FIXED USING THE SAME FAULTY PARTS WHICH AT THAT TIME WAS UNDER WARRANTY. APPROXIMATELY 4000 MILES LATER THE SAME SPILLING OF GASOLINE OCCURRED BUT DEALERSHIP SAID THE VEHICLE WAS OUTSIDE THE WARRANTY PERIOD AND THAT IT WOULD COST ME $1000 TO REPAIR. I BELIEVE THIS IS AN EXTREME FIRE HAZARD AS WELL AS A POSSIBLY SEVERE INJURY TO MYSELF AS THE GASOLINE COULD FLY INTO MY EYES OR UNTO MY CLOTHES. I DEMAND A COMPLETE NEW FUEL TANK CONFIGURATION AND FUEL FILLER NECK PARTS. TWO EXACT PROBLEMS MEANS FAULTY EQUIPMENT PARTS AND SHOULD BE REPAIRED WITH UPDATED PARTS. THE FIRST TIME IT WAS FIXED IS LISTED BELOW.

GAS TANK OVERFLOWS WITH FUEL WHEN FILLING GAS TANK AND SPRAYS BACK ON YOU AND TO GROUND. I ATTACHED A LINK TO A YOUTUBE VIDEO. THIS IS NOT MY CAR BUT I HAVE THE EXACT SAME PROBLEM. HTTPS://WWW.YOUTUBE.COM/WATCH?V=ZOUVOKEOLO8

WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE, THE FUEL SPLASHES BACK AT NEAR FULL. THE FUEL LEAKS DOWN THE PLASTIC FUEL DOOR AREA AND ONTO THE PAINTED FINISH ON THE BODY. I HAVE HAD IT SPLASH BACK ONTO MYSELF, ALSO. THERE IS SUPPOSEDLY A FAULTY FLAPPER VALVE INSIDE THE FILLER HOSE BEFORE THE FUEL ENTERS THAT TANK. THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE ON THE 97-06 WRANGLERS.

WHEN SITTING STILL WITH THE ENGINE OFF AND PUTTING GAS IN MY 06 JEEP WRANGLER, THE GAS PUMP DOES NOT KICK OFF QUICK ENOUGH WHEN THE TANK IS FULL AND SPILLS GAS DOWN THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND ONTO THE GROUND CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS FIRE HAZARD - IF YOU ARE NOT STANDING BACK, IT WILL SPLASH GAS ONTO YOUR CLOTHES WHICH COULD BE A DANGEROUS PERSONAL HAZARD WITH THE POTENTIAL OF BURNS TO A PERSONS BODY. GETTING IN AND OUT OF A VEHICLE PRODUCES STATIC ELECTRICITY AND COULD BE ENOUGH TO START A FIRE WITH THE JEEP AND POTENTIAL DANGER TO PEOPLE AND PROPERTY. THE JEEP WILL "BURP" GAS EVERYTIME THAT YOU FILL IT - THIS HAS HAPPENED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS. I DO NOT EVEN FILL THE TANK AND LET THE PUMP KICK OFF ANYMORE FOR THIS REASON - IT IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION IF YOU WAIT FOR...

THE JEEP HAS WHAT HAS BEEN TERMED THE JEEP DEATH WOBBLE. THE JEEP IS ALL STOCK, NOT LIFTED AT ALL. I HAVE FIRED THE PARTS CANNON AT THE JEEP...ALL THE WORK HAS BEEN PERFORMED BY FACTORY TRAINED TECHNICIANS USING OE PARTS. I HAVE CHANGED THE TIRES TWICE IN 20,000 MILES. THE JEEP GETS A TERRIBLE WOBBLE ON THE HIGHWAY AT 55MPH (SPEED LIMIT ON 465 IN INDIANAPOLIS) AND CAN ONLY BE BROUGHT UNDER CONTROL BY STOPPING THE VEHICLE. EVEN THOUGH I HAVE NEVER BEEN IN AN ACCIDENT CAUSED BY THE EXCESSIVE WOBBLE, IT IS DEFINITELY NOT SAFE TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP ON THE HIGHWAY. IT'S NOT ALWAYS EASY TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD ON A BUSY INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. THE FUEL FILLER NECK OFTEN OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK ALSO. THERE WAS A RECALL ON SOME JEEPS FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. HOWEVER, THE JEEP...

WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK THE FUEL FILLER HOSE FAILS TO STOP THE FLOW OF FUEL COMING BACK OUT OF THE TANK. THIS RESULTS IN FUEL SPILLING ON THE GROUND AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE.

FUEL PUMP DOES NOT SHUT OFF WHEN FULL CAUSING ABOUT 10 OUNCES OF FUEL TO SPRAY ON ME AND ON THE GROUND. IT ALSO DRIPS DOWN THE PAINT WHICH CAN CAUSE ISSUES DOWN THE ROAD OVER TIME

WHILE FUELING AND BEFORE THE PUMP AUTOMATICALLY SHUTS OFF, FUEL SPRAYS OUT OF THE FILLER NECK, RUNS DOWN THE FENDER AND ONTO THE GROUND. THIS IS NOT JUST RANDOMLY IT HAPPENS AT EVERY FILL UP.

WHEN FILLING UP TANK, FUEL COMES POURING OUT WHEN TANK IS DONE BEING FILLED

2006 WRANGLER UNLIMITED (RUBICON) OVERFILLS WITH GASOLINE BEFORE THE PUMP STOPS. ABOUT A CUP OF FUEL, DOES NOT MATTER WHICH GAS STATION OR HOW FAST THE TANK IS FILLED. IT HAS BEEN DOING THIS SINCE I PURCHASED IT FROM JEEP DEALER IN 2013.

WHILE FUELING MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER, THE FUEL FAILED TO STOP DISPENSING WHEN THE TANK WAS FULL. THIS RESULTED IN FUEL SPEWING OUT FROM THE TANK. THE FUEL GOT ON ME AS WELL AS THE JEEP AND THE IMMEDIATE SURROUNDING AREAS. I HAVE FUELED THE JEEP AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS WITH THE SAME RESULT. FUEL SPILLING OUT FROM THE TANK IS A SERIOUS FIRE, ENVIRONMENTAL, AND HEALTH HAZARD. AFTER REVIEWING THE NHTSA'S WEBSITE AS WELL AS OTHER REPUTABLE SOURCES, THIS SEEMS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM/COMPLAINT. I'M AWARE THAT THE 2007 AND NEWER JEEPS HAVE A RECALL TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. I FAILED TO REALIZE HOW SUCH A COMMON AND SERIOUS PROBLEM CAN BE IGNORED IN THE 2006 JEEPS.

JUST PURCHASED THIS JEEP FROM A DEALERSHIP AND WHEN I FILL UP THE TANK WITH GAS IT OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME SPILLING GAS ALL OVER THE GROUND AND OVER THE DRIVERS REAR QUARTER PANEL. IT IS HARD TO STOP THE OVERFLOW DUE TO THE GAS COMING OUT, DANGER OF FUEL GETTING ON MY CLOTHES WHICH THEN MAKES ME FLAMMABLE AND SMELL LIKE FUEL. THERE IS ALWAYS THE DANGER OF FUEL GETTING IN MY EYES AS WELL, I DO NOT FEEL SAFE WITH THIS FLAW. I DON'T BELIEVE THAT ALL OF THE 2005 AND 2006 JEEP OWNERS SHOULD HAVE TO DISH OUT $900 FOR A NEW FUEL TANK THAT WILL FAIL AGAIN ANYWAY BECAUSE THE ICV VALVE WILL JUST FAIL AGAIN. THIS IS A STATIONARY ISSUE WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK. CAN'T BELIEVE THAT SPILLING GAS ON THE GROUND EVERY TIME IS THAT GOOD FOR THE ENVIRONMENT.

FUEL SPILLS OUT OF THE FILLER PORT DUE TO INCORRECT ENGAGEMENT OF THE STOP ON FUEL PUMP NOZZLES. THIS IS DUE TO A MALFUNCTIONING ICV. THE JEEP HAS BEEN DOING THIS SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT AND THE PREVIOUS OWNER STATED IT DID THE SAME THING SINCE HE AND HIS WIFE BOUGHT IT IN 2008 -WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS ONLY TWO YEARS OLD.

I BOUGHT MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON NEW FROM A DEALERSHIP. AFTER FEW YEARS I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH FUEL SPITTING OUT OF THE GAS FILLER WHEN FILLING UP AT A GAS STATION. ABOUT 1/4 TO 1/2 CUP AT A TIME. DOESN'T MATTER WHICH STAION OR WHICH PUMP I USE. THE PUMP I USE WOULD CLICK OFF,BUT ALWAYS A SECOND TOO LATE. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM IN THAT NOT ONLY IS IT DAMAGING MY PAINT AND WHEEL WELL FLARES BUT ALSO SPILLING GAS ON THE GROUND CREATING AN ENVIRONMENTAL HAZARD AS DEFINED AND REGULATED BY THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION AGENCY, AS WELL AS SPLASHING ONTO THE PERSON FILLING THE JEEP COVERING THEM IN FLAMMABLE CHEMICALS AND EXPOSING THEM TO LONG-TERM HEALTH ISSUES THROUGH INHALATION AND SKIN ABSORPTION AS ADDRESSED BY THE NATIONAL INSTITUTES OF HEALTH. NOT TO MENTION WITH THE FUEL SPILLING OUT LIKE THAT, IT ALSO CREATES A...

WHEN FUELING THE VEHICLE, WHEN THE TANK IS FULL AND THE GASOLINE NOZZLE SHUTS OFF, APPROXIMATELY ONE CUP OF GASOLINE COMES OUT OF THE VEHICLE FILLER TUBE AND SPRAYS THE AREA AROUND THE FILLER INLET AND DOWN THE SIDE OF THE VEHICLE. THIS EVENT OCCURS REGARDLESS OF THE RATE OF FUEL FLOW. THIS EVENT OCCURS WHEN THE FILLER NOZZLE TURNS OFF AUTOMATICALLY OR WHEN THE USER MANUALLY CONTROLS THE RATE OF FUEL. THIS PROBLEM HAS BEEN DIAGNOSED BY FCA AS A DEFECT IN A PLASTIC VALVE LOCATED IN THE VEHICLE'S FUEL TANK THAT REACTS NEGATIVELY WITH GASOLINE ADDITIVES, SPECIFICALLY ETHANOL. FCA DOES NOT CONSIDER THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE. AS THE VEHICLE OWNER, I CONSIDER THE FACT THAT THE VEHICLE SPEWS GASOLINE OUT AT ME WHILE REFUELING TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND REQUEST THAT THE NATIONAL HIGHWAY TRAFFIC SAFETY ADMINISTRATION TAKES STEPS TO REQUIRE FCA TO RESOLVE THIS...

I BOUGHT MY 2006 JEEP WRANGLER RUBICON NEW FROM A DEALERSHIP. AFTER ABOUT TWO YEARS I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH FUEL SPITTING PUT OF THE GAS FILLER WHEN FILLING UP AT A GAS STATION. THIS IS MY WIFE'S VEHICLE AND SHE COMPENSATED BY NOT FILLING IT FULL BY SHUTTING THE FUEL PUMP OFF BEFORE THE HANDLE WOULD CLICK. OVER THE YEARS I HAVE MENTIONED IT TO DEALERSHIPS AND REPAIR SHOPS AND NO ONE EVER HEARD OF IT. IT IS AT A DEALERSHIP NOW FOR ANOTHER ISSUE AND AGAIN I MENTIONED THE GAS SPITTING OUT OF THE GAS NECK AND RUNNING DOWN THE JEEP SIDE AND GETTING ME WET. THEY SAID THEY KNOW ABOUT THE ISSUE AND THAT JEEP AND NHTSA HAD ADDRESSED THE ISSUE IN A COMPROMISE BY JEEP OFFERING AN EXTENDED WARRANTY ON 2007 AND 2008 MODELS AND JEEP SENT OUT COMMUNICATIONS TO THAT EFFECT. SINCE I HAVE A...

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK, IT WILL OVERFLOW, SPILLING GAS ON THE SIDE OF THE JEEP WRANGLER, THE TIRE AND THE GROUND. IT SEEMS LIKE THE FLAPPER VALVE IN THE FILLER NECK ISN'T PREVENTING SPILLS. IT HAPPENS EVERYTIME I'VE FILLED UP, SO I TRY NOT TO FILL THE TANK ANYMORE. I BELIEVE IT'S A SERIOUS SAFETY AND FIRE HAZARD. ONE SPILL WAS SO BIG, THE GAS STATION EMPLOYEES HAD TO USE KITTY LITTER TO SOAK IT ALL UP

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE REFUELING, THE FUEL PUMP FAILED TO SHUT OFF AND CAUSED FUEL TO SPEW OUT WITH FORCE AND SPILL ONTO THE GROUND. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THIS WAS A RECURRING FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN IN FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 50,000. UPDATED 10/19/15 *BF

WHEN REFILLING MY GAS TANK THE GAS PUMP DOES NOT SHUT OFF AND GAS SPILLS OUT WITH FORCE CAUSING GAS TO SPILL ALL OVER THE PLACE (MYSELF, JEEP & THE GROUND). THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2006 WRANGLERS (TJ & LJ) & JEEP FINALLY NEEDS TO DO SOMETHING ABOUT THIS FOR THESE MODELS AS WELL. THESE WERE THE WRANGLERS THAT TESTED SOME OF THE NEW PARTS FOR THEIR JK MODELS THAT CAME OUT IN 2007 TO PRESENT. A RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED FOR THE 2007 & NEWER MODELS FOR THIS SAME PROBLEM. HOW ABOUT FIXING WHERE THE PROBLEM STARTED AT ORIGINALLY. THANK YOU, [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).' *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2006 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE PUMPING FUEL INTO THE VEHICLE, THE FUEL WOULD OVERFLOW REGARDLESS OF THE AMOUNT WITHIN THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE RECURRED CONSTANTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,000.

WHEN FILLING GAS TANK, FUEL GUSHES (NOT A DROP, NOT A TRICKLE, RATHER A VIOLENT EXPULSION OF FUEL) FROM THE FILL NECK. MANY JEEP WRANGLER OWNERS REPORT THE SAME PROBLEM. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE.

I PURCHASED THIS JEEP USED AND THE VERY FIRST TIME I FILLED THE FUEL TANK, GAS SPEWED PROFUSELY FROM THE TANK OPENING WITHOUT TRIGGERING THE NOZZLE TO STOP AS THE TANK WAS APPROACHING FULL. THIS CAUSES GASOLINE TO SPRAY ALL OVER THE VEHICLE, THE PUMP, THE OPERATOR, AND TO PUDDLE ON THE GROUND. THIS SAME SCENARIO HAS PLAYED OUT AT EVERY GAS STATION I HAVE VISITED SINCE. THE ONLY SOLUTION IS TO TRY TO GUESS WHEN THE TANK IS CLOSE TO FULL AND STOP THE PUMP PREMATURELY. THIS IS A SERIOUS SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENTAL ISSUE THAT WARRANTS IMMEDIATE CORRECTION FROM THE MANUFACTURER. I CONTACTED THE PREVIOUS OWNER OF THE VEHICLE AND SHE STATED THAT THE SAME FUEL OVERFLOW PROBLEM WAS PRESENT THE ENTIRE TIME SHE OWNED THE VEHICLE. IN SPEAKING WITH OTHER JEEP OWNERS, THIS IS A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH 2005-2006 JEEP WRANGLER MODELS AND HAS EVEN RESULTED IN...

THE FILLER NECK DOESN'T CLOSE FAST ENOUGH WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK, THUS RESULTING IN GAS SPEWING OUT ONTO THE JEEP (CONSEQUENTLY FADING ANY FENDER YOU HAVE INSTALLED) AND ONTO YOUR PERSON. AS PER SEVERAL CAR MECHANICS' CONSULTATIONS, THE ETHANOL IN GAS IS/HAS ERODED THE FILLER NECK AND IT CAN'T CLOSE IN TIME. APPARENTLY THE ISSUE WAS ADDRESSED IN LATER MODELS OF THE JEEP WRANGLER. IT IS A NEARLY $600 FIX (INCLUDING LABOR). TEMPORARY SOLUTION: ONLY PUT ABOUT $25 IN THE GAS TANK AT A TIME (WHICH IS INCONVENIENT IS YOU ARE CONSTANTLY TRAVELING).

WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK IT ALWAYS OVERFLOWS. IT DOES NOT MATTER THE STATION OR HOW THE PUMP IS IN THE TANK. IT ALWAYS SHOOTS GAS OUT BEFORE IT KICKS OFF. I THINK THIS IS A SERIOUS FIRE HAZARD AND I ALSO CAN SPRAY FUEL ON THE PERSON FILLING. IT SOUNDS LIKE THIS IS AN ONGOING ISSUE WITH THIS MODEL AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE???

EVERY TIME THE GAS IS FILLED, FUEL OVERFLOWS AND POURS ONTO THE VEHICLE, GROUND AND WHOMEVER IS STANDING NEAR IT. *TR

TANK OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLING UP WITH FUEL. PUMP AUTO SHUT OFF DOES NOT WORK ON THIS VEHICLE AT ANY STATION. ALWAYS GET FUEL OVERFLOW. *TR

2006 JEEP WRANGLER UNLIMITED AFTER GETTING FUEL FILLED I PULL OUT OF STATION AND IT STARTS HESITATING AND THEN STALLS IN MIDDLE OF STREET. IT NEARLY CAUSED AN ACCIDENT FROM CAR BEHIND ME I HAD TO RESTART AND IT WOULD STALL AND BOG FEW MORE TIMES THEN RUN OK. TODAY I FUELED UP AND PULLED OUT OF STATION AT A 6 LANE DIVIDED ROAD WITH AN INTERSTATE WITH ON AND OFF RAMPS BOTH SIDES SO I HAD ONLY 100 FEET TO CROSS THREE LANES TO GET INTO LEFT TURN LANE FOR INTERSTATE AS THIS LANE GOES UNDER AND AT LIGHT TURNS LEFT TO ON RAMP, JUST TO GIVE YOU INSIGHT ON SITUATION, I FUEL UP PULL OUT AND IT SHUTS OFF CARS HAVE TO STOP I AM IN MIDDLE OF THREE LANE DEAD IN THE WATER IT STARTS BACK UP AND I PULL UP THANK GOD A SAFE DISTANCE TO...

WHEN REFUELING FUEL TANK ON THIS VEHICLE THE FUEL PUMP WILL NOT SHUT OFF WHEN FUEL ENTERS FILLING TUBE OF VEHICLE THUS CAUSING FUEL TO BE SPILLED OUT OF THE FILLING TUBE AND ONTO EXTERIOR OF VEHICLE, DRIVING SURFACE AND FUEL FILLING SYSTEM INCLUDING THE HOSES AND PUMP(S). THE FUEL FLOW HAS SUCH FORCE THAT THE PERSON OPERATING FILLING PUMP WILL ALSO BE SPRAYED WITH FUEL ON THEIR PERSON AND CLOTHES AS WELL AS AREAS MENTIONED PREVIOUSLY. THIS CAUSES A SEVERE EXPLOSIVE ENVIRONMENT IN THE PROXIMITY OF STATIC ENERGY. I HAVE NEVER REFUELED MY VEHICLE WITHOUT THE OVERFLOW HAPPENING UNLESS I ONLY PARTIALLY FILLED MY FUEL TANK, WHY HAVE A 19 GALLON TANK IF YOU CAN ONLY USE 2/3 OF IT? THERE IS A SEVER DANGER OF FIRE/EXPLOSION DUE TO THE AMOUNT OF FUEL THAT IS SPILLED BEFORE THE PUMP IS STOPPED. *TR

EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK FULLY, SINCE NEW, THIS VEHICLE HAS OVERFILLED AND SPILLED APPROXIMATELY 0.3 GALLONS OF FUEL. I HAVE TWO FRIENDS WITH 05-06 JEEP WRANGLERS WITH THE SAME FUEL FILLER NECK, BOTH HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM. CHRYSLER IS UNWILLING TO REPAIR AT A REASONABLE COST, BUT IT IS A DESIGN FLAW THAT IS DANGEROUS TO THE OWNER OF THE VEHICLE AND THE ENVIRONMENT. *TR
