When I fill up my 2012 Rubicon, the pump doesn't shut off fast enough. After it clicks, a small amount of gas spills back out of the fill tube. I noticed the fender and bumper cover was faded from gas spills when we bought it. It happens no matter what pump I use or what setting I have the pump on. I've also tried positioning the nozzle at different angles to no avail. I've owned over 20 vehicles since I was in high school and I only had one other vehicle that did it. My 1997 TJ. I have two trucks now that I fill at the same stations and pumps and have no problem, even when fast filling. I also fill up my Dad's LJ and it has no trouble. I couldn't ever figure this out on my TJ so I'm hoping there is a solution on the JK.
I've searched and found threads about having to "slow fill" the JK to keep the pump from shutting off. That problem seems to have been fixed by a recall but my VIN has no active recalls on it.
