What owners wrote

When fueling my 2008 chrysler aspen, fuel splashes back out of the fuel tank inlet pipe onto the person putting fuel into the tank. This happens even though you may not be topping off the tank. Fuel splashes onto person, clothes, hands, shoes, vehicle quarter panel and puddles on concrete pad . I have received skin irritation from the contact of the fuel on my hands and have to go in the store to wash my hands or wash them in the dirty water in the windshield scraper holder.

Reported at 73,600 miles, February 2016 Injury

Every time I fill the fuel tank the vehicle stalls out while driving. I've had the vehicle stall out on me while making a left hand turn at an intersection and lost control of steering.
