2007 Jeep Patriot fuel/propulsion system problems

“THE JEEP COMMONLY CHOKES AND DIES RIGHT AFTER A FILL-UP. AFTER 30 SECONDS TO A MINUTE, THE PROBLEM DISAPPEARS. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR AT LEAST 10 YEARS. ONLINE DATA SEARCH APPEARS TO INDICATE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEPS. HAVING YOUR CAR DIE IN TRAFFIC CREATES A DANGEROUS SITUATION.”

“EVERY TIME I FILL UP THE CAR, ONCE A WEEK, I AM BARELY OUT OF THE GAS STATION AND BAM! CAR SHUTS OFF. OR AS I AM DRIVING IT STALLS, SOMETIMES IT GOES AND SOMETIMES IT JUST SHUTS OFF. I'VE CARS ALMOST REAR END ME BECAUSE IT SO SUDDEN. SOMETIMES I JUST TURN ON THE CAR AFTER GAS JUST TO WAIT FOR IT TO SHUT DOWN SO I DON'T KILL MYSELF IN TRAFFIC. TOOK THE CAR TO A MECHANIC PAID 800 BUCKS AND IT STILL HAPPENS. THEY REPLACED THE FULL INJECTOR AND SOME OTHER STUFF THAT I DON'T KNOW. THEY PULLED THE GAS TANK OUT TO DO WHATEVER IT WAS. THE ENTIRE CAR SMELLED LIKE GAS FOR WEEKS. WHY CAN'T SOMETHING BE DONE. LOOKS LIKE I AM NOT THE ONLY ONE. EVERY ONES COMPLAINTS MATCHES MINE. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A YEAR.”

“VEHICLE HAS HAD STALLING ISSUES FOLLOWING REFUELING FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW. ASIDE FROM AFTER REFUELING THE STALLING IS UNPREDICTABLE AS FOR TIMING. SOMETIMES IT STALLS IMMEDIATELY AFTER REFUELING AND STARTING THE ENGINE, OTHER TIMES IT WILL STALL AFTER I'M ALREADY IN TRAFFIC SEVERAL MINUTES LATER. THIS CREATES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD.”

“AFTER GETTING GAS. VEHICLE STALLS WHILE RUNNING IN DRIVE WITHOUT WARNING . THIS IS GOING TO KILL SOMEONE PULLING INTO TRAFFIC!! IT TAKES ABOUT 3 STARTUPS AND STALLS THAN THERE IS NO ISSUE UNTIL NEXT GAS FILL UP:”

“EVERY TIME I FILL UP MY 2007 JEEP PATRIOT WITH FUEL WHEN I DRIVE OFF INTO THE CITY STREETS IT TURNS OFF ON ME AND EVERYTHING LOCKS UP IN TRAFFIC WHILE I'M IN MOTION ALMOST CAUSING A ACCIDENT EVERY TIME AND THAT'S ONCE A WEEK CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME BEFORE I GET KILLED OR SOMEONE ELSE GETS KILLED.”

“AFTER FILLING UP AT THE GAS STATION, STARTED TOO DRIVE AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES THE CAR SPUTTERED AND STALLED. STARTED CAR AGAIN AND THE STALLING HAPPENED AGAIN.. AFTER THESE 2 INCIDENTS THE CAR WAS FINE UNTIL NEXT FILL UP. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR A FEW YEARS.”
