2017 Jeep Wrangler Fuel System Problems

The oil filter housing is made of plastic but holds hot oil, over time it cracks since plastic is not made to handle hot (oil) and cold (weather) cycles

Fuel tank valve control valve leak has small crack where fuel vapors are leaking affecting my fuel efficiency and causing a evap system ECL.

Every time the vehicle is filled with fuel it overfills and a large amount of fuel spills in the vehicle and ground. This is a safety concern which can lead to a fire unexpectedly. Upon inspection the fuel tank control valve has been found to be inoperative and can cause a fuel leak during a vehicle rollover event, debris in the fuel tank, and/or the ability to overfill the fuel tank during refueling. A fuel leak during a vehicle rollover event, in the presence of an ignition source, could cause a fire without warning and lead to death. The vehicle is not shown to have an outstanding recall though this year and model does have a recall for a limited number of the production.

The contact owns a 2017 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated while the vehicle was at the independent mechanic for a State Inspection, the contact was informed that the fuel tank control valve was cracked. Additionally, an abnormally strong fuel odor was inside the vehicle. The independent mechanic related the failure to NHTSA Campaign Number: 16V849000 (Fuel System, Gasoline); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The dealer was made aware of the failure but informed the contact that there was no recall associated with the VIN. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 17,548.

Fuel overfill due to improper design of the filling tube. Caused fuel to spill onto vehicle, bumper and ground. Fire hazard high.

Chrysler has a recall for 2017 jeeps, fuel sending component, campaign #16V84900, but does not include this vin. However, the component is defective from manufacturer in this vehicle. How do I get this vin to be included in recall?

The contact owns a 2017 Jeep Wrangler. The contact stated that the odor of fuel was present inside and outside of the vehicle. Upon inspection, it was discovered that fuel had leaked underneath the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the local mechanic who diagnosed that the fuel tank control valve had cracked causing fuel to leak from the fuel tank. The vehicle was not yet repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure but no assistance was offered. The contact was informed that the vehicle was not included in the NHTSA Campaign Number 16V849000 (Fuel System, Gasoline). The contact indicated that the vehicle had experienced the same failure listed in the recall. The local dealer was not contacted regarding the failure. The failure mileage was 86,000. The contact stated that the defective fuel tank was replaced by the local mechanic.

Over the past few months, whenever I started up my 2017 Jeep Wrangler, I smelled a strong odor of gas fumes/exhaust. Then, two days ago my "Malfunction Warning Light" (check engine light) came in my dashboard and remained illuminated after an oil change and gas fill. I took my Jeep to the local Crystler/Jeep/Dodge/Ram dealership where they told me the code for the problem was a "Evap System Small Leak," but they could not take my car in for another week to look into the issue further. This concerned me, so I then took my Jeep to a Midas where they ran many tests to find that I had a "small fracture where the FPS inserts to the tank." Midas told me that although it is just the leak detection and purge valve that need a minor repair, this part cannot be purchased separately and I would need to pay to replace the whole gas tank for $2700. The technician told me he had seen this a few times before with Jeep Wranglers around the same year as mine before the 2018 models came out with a new tank, and that I couldn't have done anything to cause it because it is just a substandard part that was put in Jeeps of my model/year. I was told that if this issue is not corrected soon, it is unsafe to drive. A larger crack could grow and cause fuel to leak, which then becomes a fire safety hazard. The current fuel emissions/vapors escaping are harmful to breathe in, and to the environment. I was told my Jeep wouldn't pass smog inspection in it's current state. I have found a Crystler recall for faulty 2017 Jeep Wrangler fuel tanks, Recall no. 16V849000 (Crystler Recall no. S90) that applies exactly to my situation. However, although it is the exact problem I am experiencing, the dealership told me there are no open recalls for my specific 2017 Jeep Wrangler. I now have an open appointment to have the dealership take a closer look, but I don't believe I should need to pay for this large repair since it was a clear recall and common issue with 2017 Jeep Wranglers just like mine.
