What owners wrote
Fuel tank will overflow spilling anywhere from 1-2 quarts of fuel from vehicle when automatic fuel pumps are used. It appears as though the tank does not vent properly, when the automatic fuel pumps shut off (regardless of station) the tank appears to "burp" venting more gases and 1-2 quarts of fuel. This is a consistent problem happening regularly (every second or third fill up).
My 2009 jeep wrangler overfills every single time I try and fill-up. It has gotten tot he point that I generally try and stop filling up at about 3/4 of a tank if I can, but if I allow it to fill aon its own, it overfills and splashes out.
