While fueling my 2008 Dodge Nitro R/T as the fuel reaches full and the gas pump clicks off, fuel burps up and spills to ground/on to side of vehicle. This occurs each time I fill up the gas tank.

Every time I fill my fuel tank in my 08 Dodge Nitro rt it spills out all over the ground. This occurs when im setting the pump to stop automatically and the pump stops then the tank starts to spill. It seems to a check valve issue with the tank an can be a safety hazard at the fuel stations for myself and others around. A simple spark due to a faulty ground in the area could cause this to ignite and be potentially fatal. I feel Chrysler should be held responsible for this and a safety recall be issued. Many people have had this problem and it appears that the powers that be are not enforcing Chrysler to make this a recall issue. I guess it will take someone to become severely injured or killed before anything is done about it. Chrysler has a tsb (14-001-09) in regards to this issue so they know it is a problem and they continue to want to charge customers to fix the issue. Someone needs to do something about this asap!

When filling up the gas tank the gas overflows out onto the car and the floor. I have read that there is a valve that should stop the gas from spilling out of the tank in case of a rollover and that is the part that is not working properly. I have stopped trying to fill up my gas tank because of this problem.

Gas tank overflows when filling. It does not turn off pump automatically. Internet message forums show many others with the same problem. It is often reported to be a safety valve related to roll over wrecks.

This problem has not caused an accident but it has caused the gasoline to shoot out of my gas tank and drench me in gas several times. I believe if there is a sensor in my gas tank that it is not working properly enough to indicate that the tank is full or close to full when I'm pumping gas. When I pull out the nozzle the gas shoots out all over the place ( this is after the gas has shut off at the pump). Don't know if there have been similar incidents reported but it is important enough for me to complain about it. The Dodge dealer that sold us the vehicle when new does not seem to want to take the time to investigate my complaint so I'm looking to other sources to see if this is just a random problem or one that is worth investigating further for everyone's benefit.

Started driving a 2008 Nitro the first of the year. Upon refueling the vehicle, everytime the some part of the fuel tank causes gas to overflow onto the vehicle and the ground. Whether the hose is being pumped manually or triggered to stay on does not change this outcome. This is an evironmental as well as a safety concern. Upon some research this problem has occured on previous models. Why hasnt a recall been issued? the customer should not incur a cost due to faulty design the company should have fixed.
