Every time I go to fill my Jeep up, the gas tank over flows. It shuts off after a second or two, but there is a significant amount of gas that goes on the floor, and all over my car!

I can't put more than $1 worth of gas in at a time. Fuel continues to back up onto me and the ground. Very harmful to my family and the environment. Upon doing some research it seems to be a major problem that shows up here and on many websites. Jeep has already put out a service bulletin, but there needs to be a recall.

Along with many others, my 2005 Jeep Liberty overflows with fuel about 80% of the time when I go to fill it. I have to fill it halfway and then slowly top it off the rest of the way or risk an overflow of up to a liter of fuel all over the side of the Jeep and onto the ground. It does not matter whether I am holding the pump handle or if I set it to automatically shut off. This is at the least a very messy and environmental pollution, and at worst it is a very dangerous fire and explosion hazard. This is also adding to the cost of ownership as I lose an extra dollar or so of gas almost every time I fill up. I realize this may be an expensive fix, but Chrysler / GM need to determine how to fix this problem before people get hurt. Please investigate this problem! thank you for your time.

Gasoline spills out of Jeep when being filled. The gas handle stops automatically and then gas pours out. I have to have the attendant pour the litter on the spill. Often times it gets on me. This happens overtime I fill up regardless of what station! I am upset to see that this is a problem for many other owners. This should've a recall.

When pumping gas I can only put in less than a gallon at a time or it will all spit back out of the tank. I have been to 3 mechanics and they all said its a common problem with Jeep Liberty's and they need to replace the tank... think I'll wait and see if Chrysler does the right thing and recalls the problem seeing how hundreds of other owners have the same problem.

Fuel erupts out at end of fill up for quite some time but in this incident the fuel erupted out before 1 gallon and right after 1 gallon. A large amount came out and would have gotten on me but I recognized the sound and moved. I now have to slowly trickle the fuel in or it erupts out.

The automatic shut off for the gas tank stopped working and has not worked for 6 months. When I refill the gas tank - no matter which service station I fill it up at - it overflows, spilling onto the Jeep, my clothes, my shoes, etc. I try to guess when to stop filling it and sometime I guess correctly...sometimes not. This is a serious safety issue - googling it reveals it is happening to many, many Jeep Liberty 2005 and 2006 owners but Chrysler won't do anything about it.

I wanted to include my vehicle incident in regards to the complaints on the Jeep SUV fires. I thought it was necessary to include my entry, because unlike other incidents mentioned in the investigation, my vehicle spontaneously caught fire while I was driving it and was not the result of impact from a crash. It was a Friday evening and I was traveling home on the highway during rush hour traveling with the flow of traffic at about 65 mph. All of the sudden, and without warning, my vehicle started losing speed at a rapid pace. Thankfully, I was in the first lane and was able to pull immediately into the breakdown lane. All of my dashboard lights came on and while I was leaning over to inspect what could possibly be the problem, the hood of the vehicle suddenly burst into flames. I exited the vehicle swiftly and luckily a tow truck driver who had saw the smoke immediately called 911. The car was engulfed in flames in less then 5 minutes. Had I not been able to exit the vehicle or had children restrained in the back seat, there could have been serious injuries or possibly a fatality. I reported the incident to Chrysler after going through my insurance. There response was a polite letter telling me they were sorry for the incident, but were not responsible. The vehicle was less than 2 years old at the time and serviced regularly. The finding of the fire dept.'s inspection was inconclusive, but I was told in confidence that it seemed more than likely it was a faulty issue with the vehicle. After the incident, I took multiple photos of the interior and exterior of the Jeep, which included under the hood since we suspected the engine was at fault. If they are useful to your ongoing investigation, please feel free to contact me so that I can email them along. Thank you.

When filling up my Jeep for the first time (I had just bought it the previous day), the pump kicked off, and before I had time to put my hand on the pump handle, gas came spewing back out at me. About 1 - 2 gallons came out. I ended up getting gas all over my shoes and the bottom of my pants, and all over the side of my vehicle and the tire.

Intake valve is not working properly. Gas spills during refueling.

- Winchester, VA, USA

When filling the fuel tank, as the fuel level nears the fuel tank capacity the gasoline splashes out of the filler neck and spreads down the side of the Jeep Liberty and forms a large puddle on the pavement of the gas station. This large puddle of gas could cause a fire/explosion if ignited, thereby killing the occupant of this Jeep Liberty and other customers at the gas station. In addition to this if the large puddle of gasoline is not ignited, after about 10 minutes the spilled fuel has all evaporated into the atmosphere causing pollution to our atmosphere. I am concerned that I am violating epa emission laws.

When fueling the car at the gas pump, it overflows. Shut off mechanism is not working properly. Jeep dealer said that it needs to replace the gas tank. This is a problem with many Jeep Liberty's.
