2010 Jeep Patriot 4X4 fuel system problems

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

I'VE MADE A COMPLAINT ALREADY BUT MY 2010 JEEP PATRIOT AGAIN STALLED OUT AFTER GETTING A FULL TANK OF GAS AND DRIVING OFF, LUCKILY STILL AT THE GAS STATION AND WHEN I WAS GETTING COFFEE FOR MY 3 AND A HALF HOUR DRIVE TO SCHOOL, IT STALLED OUT 3 MORE TIMES WHEN I AM IN DRIVE. I WAS SCARED IT WAS GOING TO STALL OUT ON ME WHILE I'M DRIVING FOR THE WHOLE DRIVE. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL IS LOCKED AND WHAT IF IT HAPPENED WHEN I AM ON THE ROAD AND THERE IS A CAR BEHIND ME? I COULD GET REAR ENDED. MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE PATRIOT.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

WHENEVER I PUT A FULL TANK OF GAS IN MY CAR, MY CAR STALLS OUT. ONE TIME, I JUST LEFT THE GAS STATION AND IT STALLED AND THEN WHEN I WENT TO GET FOOD, IT STALLED OUT AGAIN. I'VE HEARD OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE PATRIOTS, IT HAPPENS TO THEM. MY CAR WAS IN DRIVE AND IT ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I WAS STOPPED WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKES. ONE TIME IT HAPPENED WHEN MY PATRIOT WAS IN PARKED. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IF SOMEONE WAS TURNING, THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO SINCE THE WHEEL LOCKS SO YOU CAN'T TURN IT. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS BECAUSE IT COULD BE THE FUEL TANK OR THE GAS CAP FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD AND IT'S NOT JUST ME HAVING THIS ISSUE.

NHTSA complaint #11172810 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AND UNEXPECTEDLY STALLS WHILE DRIVING, FOLLOWING A FILL UP OF THE FUEL TANK. THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF, AND ALL POWER IS LOST, INCLUDING POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES. REQUIRES ATTEMPTING TO COAST THE VEHICLE TO A SAFE STOP. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN AS THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHERE WE WERE ALMOST REAR ENDED DUE TO HAVING TO STOP IN THE ROADWAY. REQUIRES WAITING BRIEFLY, AND THEN THE VEHICLE MAY RESTART, HOWEVER, IT WILL ALSO STALL OUT AGAIN UNTIL THE FUEL LEVEL IN THE TANK DECREASES. IT HAS BEEN BROUGHT TO MY ATTENTION THAT THIS IS OCCURRING ON MANY JEEP PATRIOT AND COMPASS MODELS OVER MANY MODEL YEARS.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

MAYBE 5 MINUTES AFTER REFUELING MY GAS TANK, THE CAR WILL UNEXPECTEDLY LOSE POWER AND SHUT OFF. IT IS DIFFICULT TO RESTART. I END UP SITTING IN THE MIDDLE OF BUSY ROADS UNABLE TO RESTART MY CAR OR PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I HAVE GOOGLED THIS ISSUE AND FOUND NUMEROUS OTHER PEOPLE WITH JEEPS HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM. VERY DANGEROUS. TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC WHO BELIEVES IT IS A FAULTY ROLLOVER VALVE/SENSOR.

NHTSA complaint #11011761 — an unverified report by a vehicle owner.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

UPON REFILLING THE GAS TANK TO FULL FROM NEAR EMPTY, THE CAR WILL IMMEDIATELY STUTTER AND OCCASIONALLY STALL FOR UP TO FIVE MINUTES. I DISCOVERED THIS UPON PULLING OUT INTO TRAFFIC AND THE ENGINE TURNING OFF. THIS LED TO LOSS OF POWER STEERING AS WELL. OTHER CARS HAD TO IMMEDIATELY DIVERT OR COLLIDE INTO MY CAR. UPON RESTARTING THE CAR DID THIS THREE MORE TIMES WITHIN 2 MILES. NO EMERGENCY LIGHTS OR WARNING LIGHTS GO OFF. THIS IS ALLEGEDLY A FUEL SYSTEM PROBLEM AND THE ENGINE IS "CHOKING" DUE TO A FAULTY SENSOR. THIS HAS OCCURRED THREE TIMES NOW.
