Every time I get gas, the Liberty cannot tell when to stop the pump from pumping gas. Gas ends up overflowing down the side of the car, on the ground and even sometimes on me. This is a dangerous situation.

I have my brother's 2005 Jeep Liberty with less than 100,000 miles. It is a very important vehicle to me as he passed from cancer. To date I have filled the car 3X and every time I get a gas gusher coming out of the tank. The last time I was extra careful and still ended up getting gas all over the car and myself. Now I try to estimate gallons so it doesn't spray out and I stand off to the side. $600 is a lot of money to spend for a new fuel neck replacement. Obviously not everyone is reporting this as they are trying to fix it themselves. Try googling this on the internet. This is not a safe situation, although gas on the outside dissipates quite quickly. One spark and the gas station could be toast. I am very leery of Chrysler & Dodge gas tanks, thankfully my magnum which started acting up had a lifetime warranty on the fuel tank, which Dodge is not very quick to point out. My magnum just started dying after it was filled up, fixed now I hope. Hoping you can come up with a re-call for these Jeep. Very disappointed in the fueling up issues.
While filling up the gas tank, the pump automatic shut off is triggered several times before the tank is full and as a result, gas ends up spewing back out of the tank runs down the side of the vehicle to the ground creating a potential fire hazard. It seems like the gas tank is unable to vent the air out quickly enough so the gas comes back out of the tank fill tube.

I have called and contacted Jeep hot line at 18774265337 but no luck. Fuel overflows from filler after auto-shutoff of pump occurs. Occurs every time fueling operations occurs regardless of fuel station. Numerous complaints issue but no service bulletins or recalls. Potential fire hazard.
My gas overflow every time I fill up my tank. This has been happening for a few years and I contacted Jeep and was told they would not do anything. This is a safety hazard and could cause a fire and something should be done I have spoken to several Jeep owners with this model and they are having the same problem.
NHTSA recall number 13V-252. Chrysler/Jeep has never contacted me in reference to this recall. Which seems to be very serious since it appears passengers in my vehicle and myself could be killed due to this defect. Another example of Jeep not caring about their customers. Once they get their money they don't know you. I am the only owner of the vehicle and I have not moved so there is no excuse for not contacting me. I am sure they will lie and say they did. If they had I would have had the work done since it involves life and death. All about the bottom line and not caring about people. I would prefer they send me the materials to repair the problem and I will have my mechanic take care of the issue. When I had Jeep repair a defective window regulator now that door does not work. I want it done right so have them send me the parts needed to: 115 avenue C, sch. Haven, pa 17972.
