What owners wrote
2010 jeep liberty spontaneously caught on fire and exploded on friday april 15, 2016. My stepdad and I were out and we stopped and picked up a pizza on the way home and everything was just fine the whole drive home, no smell, no driving issues, no smoke, no overheating dings, no funky sounds.

While refueling, the tank will overflow and bubble over onto my paint and the ground every time I fill up. It's roughly a cup of fuel each time. This is a persistent problem for me and safety hazard. I'm pretty sure overflowing gasoline isn't good, and it is damaging to the product (paint) as well; this issue is a growing theme with chrysler vehicles and all affected vehicles need a service bulletin posted for a solution.
