2011 JEEP WRANGLER Fuelpropulsion System Problems

(1) Since October, I have had airbag failure in my Wrangler Rubicon. The failure is the 2nd time for the same defective parts. Jeep has failed to repair/replace the parts. I've been waiting for two months. I cannot drive with no airbags. It's a death sentence and SUICIDE to drive without airbags. There is a recall on this same defect issue, yet Jeep has continued to ignore this issue. (2) Jeep repaired a recall on my sidemirror defrosters a few years ago. After their repair, the defroster never worked again. (3) My heated seats failed to work, due to known defects. I've been without the deated seats for more than 2 years now! Jeep refuses to fix their defects.

The check-valve nipple on the gas tank of my 2011 Jeep Wrangler is broken. You can see it and smell the gas vapors leaking from this nipple. The vehicle has 86K miles. The Jeep failed our Delaware state inspection because the check engine light came on. The Jeep smells like gas and in addition to harmful vapors, it is a serious safety issue and an explosion danger. Two service stations attempted to fix this without success. The error code is P0455 for an emissions leak. The most recent service station ordered several previously-owned Jeep gas tanks but they all had this same failure. They next ordered a new gas tank from Jeep which was out of stock for several months, indicating they can not keep up with the demand for these failing nipples. When the new gas tank finally came in, this same nipple was broken and this was a...

Jeep wranglers have a common problem with the fuel inlet. It clogs over time then will cause fuel to spill over or click off constantly while fueling the vehicle. This gets worse in cold months. I have spilled fuel hundreds of times over the years while fueling. Jeep forums and YouTube talk about the widespread issue. No warranty or recall? Perhaps after a gas station goes up in flames

AUTO SHUT OFF OF GAS FILL DOES NOT WORK WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK AND GAS SPUES ALL OVER THE VEHICLE AND GROUND WHEN TANK FILLS.

FUEL OVERFLOWS WHILE FILLING TANK. FUEL SPILLS ON PEOPLE, VEHICLE, AND GROUND.

WHEN FILLING UP WITH FUEL, THE GAS WILL SPIT BACK AND SPILL FUEL ON THE SIDE OF JEEP AND GROUND, EVEN AFTER THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF OF THE HOSE ENGAGES. HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL, MAYBE 5 DOZEN, TIMES SINCE I'VE OWNED IT. IT US WELL DOCUMENTED FROM THOUSANDS OF OWNERS OF THIS STYLE JEEP HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM.

GAS TANK IS CRACKED ON TOP NO IMPACTS SHOWING. *TR

EVERY TIME WE FILL THE GAS TANK, FUEL SPEWS/SPILLS OUT AT THE END OF PUMPING THE GAS.

WHEN I FILL THE GAS TANK, THE STATION PUMP CLICKS OFF THE NOZZLE THEN GAS SPITS BACK OUT OF MY TANK ALL OVER THE SIDE OF MY JEEP AND ONTO THE GROUND.

WHEN FILLING THE FUEL TANK, GASOLINE SPEWS OUT OF THE FILLER TUBE AS THE GAS PUMP CLICKS OFF AT "FULL" LEVEL. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY AND THE ENGINE WAS TURNED OFF. THIS PROBLEM HAPPENS ALMOST EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK

WHEN FILLING WITH FUEL, GAS WILL SPIT BACK FROM THE FILLER NECK AND ALL OVER THE SIDE OF THE JEEP RIGHT BEFORE THE FUEL NOZZLE CLICKS OFF. THIS HAS HAPPENED 3 TIMES NOW IN THE 3 WEEKS SINCE I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE FROM A DEALER. THIS CREATES A FIRE HAZARD IN THE EVENT GAS HIT A HOT SPOT OR A SPARK CAUSED BY STATIC, ETC...

THE FUEL TANK RUSTED AND HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE TANK WAS ON BACKORDER AND THIS WAS AN ONGOING ISSUE.

2011 JEEP SAHARA WRANGLER REFUELING PROBLEM. REFUELING GEYSER OVERFLOW PROBLEM OF GASOLINE AT WHERE NOZZLE ENTERS VEHICLE. REQUIRES MANUALLY CLICKING OFF HANDLE WHEN FUEL TANK IS COMPLETELY FULL OVERFLOWING GASOLINE ON GROUND, JEEP, AND SELF, (FUEL ON HANDS AND SHOES). THIS OVERFLOW OCCURRED JANUARY 25, 2019, FEBRUARY 11, 2019, AND MARCH 10, 2019. WE ARE THE ORIGINAL OWNERS FROM BERGLUND JEEP DODGE RAM DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE ADVISOR INDICATED REPAIRS WOULD NOT BE COVERED APRIL 3, 2019.

WHEN FILLING UP AT A FUEL PUMP, THE FUEL PUMP HANDLE WILL CLICK OFF AND AFTER THAT HAPPENS, ABOUT 1/4 OF A GALLON OF FUEL WILL SPILL OUT OF THE FILLER NECK ONTO THE SIDE OF MY VEHICLE.

ON GOING ISSUE OF FUEL BACK SPLASH WHEN FUELING. AFTER PUMP SHUTS OFF FUEL POURS BACK OUT ON TO THE VEHICLE AND GROUND. ON GOING ISSUE.

MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. AFTER TAKING IT IN FOR A DIAGNOSTIC TEST, THEY SAID MY PCM FAILED. MY JEEP WILL NOT PASS EMISSIONS THE COMPUTER IS NOT OPENING AND CLOSING MY EGR VALUE.

FUEL SPRAYS OUT OF FILLER WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK. THE NOZZLE SHUTS OFF AND THEN THE FUEL FLOWS OUT ONTO OPERATOR AND EXTERIOR OF CAR AND GROUND.

WHEN REFUELING, THE GAS DOES NOT SHUT OFF AND SPILLS OUT OF THE TANK UNTIL USER SHUTS OFF. THIS HAPPENS EACH TIME YOU REFUEL AND YOU ARE UNABLE TO FILL UP TO SHUT OFF. I HAVE SPILLED GASOLINE, ON VEHICLE, CLOTHING, GROUND, GAS PUMP, ETC. THIS IS A PRETTY SERIOUS ISSUE AND I COULD NOT FIND A RECALL. I DON'T THINK THIS SHOULD BE IGNORED. I HAD TO ADD A DATE BELOW, JUST THE LATEST TIME IT HAS BEEN AN ISSUE. IT HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES TO MYSELF AND MY SPOUSE.

FUEL SPIT BACK, AIRBAG MALFUNCTION, TIRE PRESSURE SENSOR, NAVIGATION SYSTEM FREEZES

CRACK IN GAS TANK - THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED YESTERDAY WHEN I STARTED THE VEHICLE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC. THERE IS A CRACK IN THE TOP OF THE GAS TANK. MY MECHANIC SAID THAT AFTER RESEARCH IN TRYING TO GET A NEW GAS TANK, HE FOUND THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE. MOPAR HAS A SIGNIFICANT BACKORDER FOR THESE TANKS. THIS IS DEFINITELY A SAFETY ISSUE AND I HOPE IT WILL BE LOOKED INTO.

JEEP HAS A LEAK AT MOULDED VALVE FOR EVAP SYSTEM ON THE TOP OF THE FUEL TANK

WHEN I FILL UP AT THE PUMP GAS OVERFLOWS - TRIED DIFFERENT STATIONS AND SETTING ON THE LEVER.

GAS TANK OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLING VEHICLE.. I HAVE SEEN SEVERAL COMPLAINTS ON LINE

WHEN FUELING THE GAS TANK, GAS WILL SPEW OUT IN LARGE VOLUMES BEFORE THE GAS PUMP HABDLE DEACTIVATE ALLOWING GAS TO SPILL OVER THE SIDE OF JEEP AND ON TO THE GROUND. IT HAPPENS AT MULTIPLE GAS STATIONS AND MULTIPLE PUMPS. PROBLEM IS WITH JEEP, NOT THE GAS PUMP HANDLE. SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH REVEALS A MIRIAD OF THE SAME PROBLEM. VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. NOTE: HAS HAPPENED ALOT PRACTICALLY EVERYTIME, NOT JUST THE DATE ENTERED.

MY JEEP OVERFLOWS GASOLINE EVERYTIME I FILL UP AT THE PUMP

IN JULY 2017, VEHICLE DID NOT PASS EMISSION REQUIREMENTS AT STATE INSPECTION. UPON INVESTIGATION, DETERMINATION WAS MADE THAT A PLASTIC HOSE CONNECTION ON TOP OF TANK HAD BROKEN AND THAT ENTIRE TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. REPLACEMENT AVAILABILITY WAS NOT A PROBLEM - OVER 100 IN STOCK LOCALLY (REALLY? THIS MUST BE A RECURRING PROBLEM!) REPLACEMENT COST, PARTS & LABOR - $1200.) FIRST REPLACEMENT HAD SAME PROBLEM AND WAS REPLACED IMMEDIATELY AT NO COST. SECOND REPLACEMENT HAS NOW DEVELOPED SAME ISSUE & AND NOW, AFTER APPROXIMATELY 6+ MONTHS MUST BE REPLACED AGAIN. IT SHOULD BE NOTED THAT THERE HASN'T BEEN ANY ACCIDENT, OR TRAUMA OF ANY KIND TO VEHICLE. ALTHOUGH REPLACEMENT COST IS NOT TO BE IGNORED, IT IS MY CONTENTION THAT THIS OBVIOUS DESIGN FLAW CREATES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD. IN THE EVENT OF A ROLLOVER, GASOLINE WOULD FREE-FLOW FROM THE TANK ONTO THE MUFFLER.

FUEL SHOOTING OUT OF GAS TANK WHEN FILLING UP. DOES NOT SHUT OFF, SENDING FUEL FLYING OUT ALL OVER VEHICLE AND CONCRETE. VEHICLE STATIONARY, NOT RUNNING. BEGAN IN EARLY JANUARY 2018 AND CONTINUES WITH EACH FILL-UP.

JUST BOUGHT THE JEEP, USED IN DEC 2017. EVERY TIME I FILL THE TANK, THE FUEL BACKS UP THE FILLER NECK CAUSING A MESS ON MY JEEP AND THE GROUND. EVERY TIME.

EVERY TIME I FILL MY GAS TANK I HAVE GASOLINE SPRAY BACK AND OVERFILL POURING OUT FROM THE GAS TANK. THE GAS SPILLS ALL OVER MYSELF, MY JEEP AND THE GROUND. HAPPENS EVERY TIME REGARDLESS OF WHERE I FILL UP.

GAS SHOOTING BACK AT ME WHEN I FILL UP. HORRENDOUS AND A SAFETY ISSUE. ALL OVER MY CHILD NEXT TO ME. I WANT TO SUE JEEP.

GASOLINE/FUEL SPIT OR SPRAY-BACK AND OVERFILL SPILLAGE WHEN FILLING FUEL TANK, ESPECIALLY WHEN/AFTER FUEL FILLING NOZZLE SHUTS OFF (AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF). OCCURS PRACTICALLY EVERY TIME I FILL MY TANK.

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK THERE IS SOMETHING WRONG WITH THE FILET NECK. THE GAS DOES NOT STOP WHEN YOUR FILLING IT. THE GAS OVERRATED ALL THE TIME. THE PERSON AT THE GAS STATION SAYS IT HAPPENS W ALL THE JEEP'S. THIS IS DANGEROUS AND SOMEONE IS GOING TO DIE WHEN THE GAS SPILLS OUT. ALSO JEEP SAYS IT'S A PROBLEM BUT SAYS THERE ISN'T A RECALL

GASOLINE WILL OVERFLOWS WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK. IT ALSO PRODUCES BACK PRESSURE WHEN FILLING CAUSING THE FUEL PUMP TO AUTOMATICALLY SHUT OFF PREMATURELY.

FUEL KEEP'S SPITTING OUT WHEN I FILL-UP WITH GAS.

BOUGHT JEEP NEW. HAS ALWAYS NEEDED OIL BETWEEN CHANGES. CONSTANT TICKING SOUND STARTED A FEW WEEKS AGO WHILE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. MECHANIC SAYS ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED.

I WAS DRIVING AT UNDER 10 MPH, ON A TEXAS STATE ROAD WHEN THE PLASTIC FUEL LINE WHICH IS CONNECTED TO THE UNDERSIDE OF THE BODY WITH SOME TYPE OF ADHESIVE FAILED. THIS DROPPED THE FUEL LINE DIRECTLY ON THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER, WHICH MELTED THE FUEL LINE CAUSING A FIRE THAT SPREAD TO THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT. APPARENTLY THIS IS AN ISSUE ON THE 4 DOOR MODEL WRANGLERS AS THE 2 DOOR WRANGLERS HAVE A PLATE PREVENTING THIS. THIS ISSUE SHOULD BE LOOKED AT ON ALL 4 DOOR MODELS, RANGING FROM 2008 THROUGH AT LEAST 2013. I HAVE LOOKED AT OTHER 4 DOOR JEEPS AND SEE THAT THEY HAVE THE SAME POTENTIAL ISSUE THERE IS NOTHING THAT PREVENTS THE FUEL LINE FROM COMING INTO CONTACT WITH THE EXHAUST AND POTENTIALLY CAUSING A FIRE.

EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY GAS TANK IT CLICKS ONCE TO SHUT OFF AND THEN FUEL COMES SHOOTING OUT LIKE A GEYSER. I HAVE TRIED PUMPING SLOWLY AND ALL DIFFERENT POSITIONS WITH NOZZLE AND THAT DOESN'T HELP. A HUGE AMOUNT OF GASOLINE SPITS OUT EVERYWHERE.

WHEN FILLING UP WITH GAS, AFTER THE AUTOMATIC PUMP SHUTOFF, GAS SHOOTS BACK OUT ONTO THE SIDE OF THE JEEP AND THE GROUND. LIKE THE TANK THREW UP THE LAST BIT OF GAS (ABOUT A LITER OF GAS COMES BACK OUT). HAPPENS EVERY TIME I FILL UP REGARDLESS OF WHICH GAS STATION I GO TO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 JEEP WRANGLER. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 45 MPH, THE FUEL TANK TUBING FRACTURED. IN ADDITION, VAPORS ENTERED THE VEHICLE AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL TANK NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,100. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

THERE IS FUEL CAP MESSAGE ON THE DASHBOARD. I CHANGED THE CAP AND THE MESSAGE CONTINUED. I TOOK THE RUBICON TO THE LOCAL JEEP DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS PROBLEMS WITH THE FUEL TANK AND NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE IS A HOSE THAT GOES FROM WHERE THE FUEL GETS FILLED TO THE ENGINE AND THE WHOLE TANK NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I FEEL THAT THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM AND A SAFETY HAZARD. THE JEEP IS NOT BEING DRIVEN RIGHT NOW DUE TO MY CONCERN. THE JEEP IS ONLY 5 YEARS OLD AND IT ONLY HAS 36K MILES. THIS SHOULD BE A MANUFACTURE REPLACEMENT> I HAVE NEVER HEARD OF SUCH ISSUES ON OTHER VEHICLES EVEN AFTER 50+ YEARS. PLEASE ADVICE ME ASAP ON MY NEXT STEP. THANK YOU *TR

2011 JEEP WRANGLER IS VERY HARD TO FUEL. WHEN FUELING FUEL PUMP CONTINUALLY SHUTS OFF. MUST REDUCE TO A VERY SLOW RATE AND EVEN THEN IT WILL SOMETIMES SHUT OFF NO MATTER WHAT PUMP IS USED. OCCURS AT EVERY GAS STATION AND EVERY PUMP. SO NOW I HAVE TO PUMP GAS INTO THE JEEP REALLY SLOW BEEN CARE FULL AS NOT TO HAVE A FUEL BACK SPLASH.

THE FUEL TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME I FILL UP. IT SPILL FUEL EVERYWHERE.

NEARLY EVERY TIME I REFUEL MY JK, WITHIN ONE SECOND OF SHUTTING OFF THE FUEL NOZZLE, APPROXIMATELY 3-8OUNCES OF GAS IS FORCEFULLY EXPELLED FROM THE FUEL INLET ON THE JEEP. SEVERAL HUNDRED JK OWNERS HAVE REPORTED SIMILAR PROBLEMS WITH THEIR JKS ON A NUMBER OF INTERNET FORA ADDITIONALLY, THERE ARE SEVERAL YOU TUBE VIDEOS DOCUMENTING THIS PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM SPANS ALL MODEL YEARS OF THE JK, BOTH TWO AND FOUR DOOR. THE VEHICLE IS STATIONARY. I'VE REPORTED THE PROBLEM TO JEEP AND THEY CLAIM IT'S NOT THEIR RESPONSIBILITY SINCE NO RECALL HAS BEEN ISSUED BUT I FIND THIS TO BE A SAFETY ISSUE AND A POTENTIAL HAZARD.

WHEN YOU FILL THE VEHICLE, AT TIME OF AUTOMATIC SHUT-OFF AT PUMP, FUEL SPURTS OUT OF FILL. THIS IS NOT AN ISOLATED CONDITION BUT CONTINUOUS.

WHEN FILLING UP GAS TANK, PUMP CLICKS OFF AND THEN FUEL SPILLS OUT. THIS OCCURS AT DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS.

GASOLINE OVERFLOWS THE TANK WHEN FILLING AT EVERY FILLUP, REGARDLESS OF FILLING STATION BRAND NAME, TIME OF YEAR OR FILLING WITH THE NOZZLE HANDLE HELD BY HAND OR USING THE AUTO FILL MODE.

FUEL OVERFILL SHUT OFF NOT WORKING RESULTING IN LARGE SPRAY OF FUEL.

FUEL OVERFLOWS FROM THEIR TANK DURING THE REFUELING PROCESS. THE FUEL SYSTEM DOES NOT SEEM TO RESPOND TO THE SHUT-OFF MECHANISM, WHICH MEANS GAS SPILLS OUT ONTO THE GROUND, THE CAR AND EVEN THE OWNER. THIS ISN'T A SIMPLE LITTLE FUEL LEAK EITHER, THIS IS MORE LIKE A FUEL GEYSER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2011 JEEP WRANGLER. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE REFUELING THE VEHICLE, THERE WAS FUEL LEAKING FROM THE FUEL TANK OF THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE HAD GOTTEN PROGRESSIVELY WORST OVER TIME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 61,000.
