Many Jeep vehicles have gas blow back during refueling. This problem has existed for a number of years and Jeep has issued recalls. Please read the following: If each Jeep user spills.1 gallon during refueling and they refuel the Jeep 12 times per year they spill 1.2 gallons per year. This is a very low estimate. If there are 100,000 Jeeps experiencing this problem that is 120,000 gallons of gas per year. Does anyone at NHTSA care?

Fuel overflows & doesn't shut off when full! every time we put fuel into the car, it will not allow the pump to shut off when the tank becomes full-no matter how slow one fills the tank, it creates a fuel burp and pours gasoline out & down the vehicle. All of us, including our young driver, need to be extremely cautious when at a gas station. Very very unsafe could be very dangerous!

Gasoline overflows from gas tank when adding additional gas at the fuel pump. The filler/breather tube assembly and gas tank were replaced but it didn't fix this problem.

Almost every time I fill-up, there is a splash-back from the fuel filler opening. This apparently is a very common problem with the Liberty model among others. I spoke with the service department at the dealership and was told that I would need to pay for any repairs since there was no recall that would pay for it. I then contacted Chrysler who told me that my specific Liberty is not part of any recall or tsb so they cannot help. I believe this problem poses a hazard if the gas was to ignite. The most recent occurrence was on 26 February 2016.

Ever single time I fill up my gas tank it overflows. This is not anything new. The model of my car one year after has a fuel tank recall so why isn't there one for the 200 kj Jeep Liberty.

The filler neck in failing on my Jeep Liberty 2007 and it is a safety issue! when I fill up my tank with gas, the automatic shut off occurs and when I remove the nozzle, gas spits back at me. At first it would happen after the tank was full, now it is happening after only filling up 2 gal (when on empty!).
