Liberty 3.7L V6

Fuel is splashed all over the side of the vehicle and the person filling the vehicle, if standing too close. Aren't we warned about static electricity possibly causing a fire? What happens when a large quantity of fuel and highly flammable vapors enter the picture? HUGE possibility for fire and injuries!!!!!!!

Liberty 65 3.7L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 101,000 miles

I actually spoke with a direct employee of Chrysler, Mike, this morning at 10:39 A.M. Mountain time. During this conversation Mike told me that there has been a safety recall for this exact issue on 2007 and 2008 Jeep Liberties. However, apparently Chrysler is discriminating against the all other Jeep Liberties (including my 2006) for this issue. No matter how dangerous or life threatening. No matter how many lives are put at risk from their flat out discrimination against all other Jeeps with this issue.

Liberty 3.2L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 65,679 miles

If I had to input every single incident since I've owned this vehicle then I'd have to spend a lot of time here! This happens every single time I fill up. I am unable to fill up using the clip stopper thing on the gas pump at certain stations. I know these pumps have auto shut-off but it does not work on my vehicle. Very annoying when you reek of gasoline on the way to the office! This doesn't seem very safe...

I'm not over filling the tank and I can only put in $0.50 at a time, it keeps spiting gas out of the fill tube.

Liberty Limited 3.2L V6

  • Automatic transmission
  • 104,000 miles

THE GAS TANK OVERFLOWS EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE IS FILLED UP. GAS STATION PUMPS DO NOT AUTOMATICALLY STOP WHEN FILLING THE TANK. THIS OCCURS EVERY TIME AND AT EVERY GAS STATION. THIS HAS THE POTENTIAL FOR STARTING A FIRE. IT ALSO LEAKS FUEL INTO THE ENVIRONMENT. AS EXPENSIVE AS GAS IS NOW, I DON'T APPRECIATE DUMPING MONEY ON THE GROUND!

problem #1

Dec 122006

Liberty 3.7L

  • Automatic transmission
  • 11,000 miles

When filling with fuel, it always overflows about a cup full or so, no matter which setting is used on the pump handle.

It occurs every time the Liberty is filled, and at every fuel station.

The fuel comes out of the filler opening, down the rear fender, and onto the ground.

This has happened since I bought the car in late 2006, and I have never filled it with any fuel except normal unleaded gasoline.
