The Jeep dealer(minot Chrysler center) says they do not have the parts to fix this recall....I have went there twice since I received notice of the recall on August 2014.

Fuel overflow at the gas pump. The pump will not shut off when tank is reaching the full point, therefore spilling fuel on the car, ground and often the person pumping gas.

I am the original owner of this Jeep Liberty first of all and I love it, but it is dangerous! I can't fill the gas tank on my Jeep Liberty with out it spewing back out. The first time it happened gas was all on the ground at the gas station. It got all over my hands and paints leg and burned my skin. I was out of town and didn't have an extra pair of pants to change into. All I could do is pull off at the next exit and try to clean my skin in the restroom. Now I have to hold my ear down to the gas nozzle to hear the tank filling up. My husband can't hear well so I can't let him fuel the Liberty. Out of fear of gas getting on others and on the ground, I am the only one that fuels the tank. Chrysler will not replace the gas tank because it shows no problem under my VIN number. This is a public and environmental safety problem with gasoline on people and all over the ground! I need this tank replaced, just thunk about it....1/2 gallon of gasoline on the ground for every other Jeep Liberty like mine out there. I talked with Jeep customer service again today and was still denied.

When pushed to speed up at a fast rate and upon approaching 65mph or faster the service engine light flashes slowly. My mechanic found the code reader saying a misfire was happening. When that light flashes it starts to shake pretty bad. Determined that cylinder 1 has low compression. Only way to find out for sure what to do next is to tear down the motor which I do not have the money for that. Sad how waistful people are forced to be with vehicles. Its still pretty new!! we took good care of this Jeep maintaining it correctly since we got it with only 37K miles and has not had any problems till now. So this was a shock! before 37K miles I am not aware of this particular Jeep's engine repair history. Also this same Jeep had the clogged fuel line causing the tank to spill out while fueling up when it was not full yet.

It has been brought to the attention of the NHTSA that there is an issue with Jeep vehicles that when fueling up the gas tank a geyser of gasoline will erupt from the tank upon "completion" of filling the tank. Covering the car, the individual filling the tank, the ground, and anyone else within a certain vicinity in gasoline, a highly flammable liquid. Chrysler has a history of this issue with their vehicles. In 2009, 45,000 cars were recalled for it. Currently, Chrysler has agreed to "initiate a lifetime warranty program" to address this very issue in 135,000 Jeep manufactured in 2007 and 2008. Leaving all other Jeep owners with this issue to continue risking their lives and the lives of others by getting continually doused in gasoline. Recently, Chrysler issued a recall for 430,000 Jeep because of a weakness in the gas tank that can burst into flame in the event of a rear end collision. So they know their gas tanks are weak! this latest recall admits to it. So why the discrimination against the rest of us Jeep owners with faulty inlet check valves" where is justice, and concern for our safety"

I received a recall notice in August 2014 regarding the fuel tank on my car. It has taken until today to get the part at the dealership, jones of bel air. Some of the blame is due to the parts not being available and that jones did not contact me when the parts came in, as they said they would. I believe this has placed me at risk of harm due to the fuel tank leak that could cause a fire in the event of a collision.

I purchased what appeared to be a well maintained 2006 Jeep from a local reputable dealer at a cost over of 10 grand on 10/3/14. The first tank fill up the gas overflowed out of the tank. There was no "stop" the gas just came out. I asked the cashier if there was a problem with the gas pump and they said they didn't know. So, the next gas fill up a week later, the gas shot out of the tank this time. Still no warning to stop filling the tank with a gas "stop". I contacted the dealer, who could not find anything mechanically wrong with the tank, and had to pay for and send the car to a local Jeep dealer for repair. To make a long story short, they replaced the gas tank. Albeit I received the car back with less gas than I had left it with. Took the car home, filed the car on Friday 11/7/14 and the gas mechanism did stop the gas, but only after gas leaked out from the gas tank again, and they never even tested the car to make sure it didn't happen again! as I found out later, they replaced the tank with a used tank. I am incredulous about this issue. My dealer is going to take care of this issue, I hope. And if it is not fixable, I will never buy another Jeep or Chrysler product! from what I am reading on the web no one is listening to us Jeep owners. Thankfully I have a small warranty period that covers this issue, but I implore you to reopen this issue. I can attest this is not internet hype. I have worked hard for most of my life and feel as a consumer I am being taken advantage of. To make such a substantial purchase to only find out that thousands of others are being ignored with the same issue is beyond me. Please fix what is already broken.

There has not been an accident yet. We have been attempting to schedule a recall appointment for six months with Jeep/Chrysler. We continuously receive reminders to set an appointment to fix the car but then they cant help you when you do call to do what they are requesting. They claim they don't have the parts and are not responsive to inquiries about when parts will be ready. They need to let us know when they can actually address their recall issues.
