Default fuel leak

2013 jk wrangler 3.6L has fuel leak coming from the very front of tank. I can feel where there is a hose running into a plastic fitting on top of tank. Its leaking around the fitting. Im guessing the seal is no good, but just dont know what it is and can it be replaced or just resealed? Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks

2013? I wouldn't bother looking any further and would head straight to a dealer!

Agree completely with SeaComms, straight back to the dealer to the extent I'd use Jeep Assist and have them tow it as it's "too dangerous to drive with a fuel leak".

Ring Jeep Assist and tell them your vehicle details and that fuel is pi55inig out everyehere and it needs a tow.

Yeah good call. I will be calling dealer tomorrow. They will probably take their sweet time to repair. It only happens when tank is full.thanks for the help.

Call Jeep Assist instead of the dealer. That's what it's for and they will tow it to the dealer.
