2007 Jeep Compass Engine Problems

“I purchased vehicle in feb 2018 for my then 16 year old daughter. Last couple of refuels, vehicle will stall out after leaving gas station. She looses power, steering & braking ability when this occurs. Vehicle will start back up drive along a while then stall out again. This happens several times then will operate normally till next fill-up.”

“After filling up my 07 Jeep Compass not even as I was pulling out of the parking lot the Jeep started stuttering and shut off .. It happened multiple times until I got home. While accelerating it would act like it wanted to stall . And while coming to a shop it would cut off. I was almost hit because of this . And I had my disabled daughter in the car. I have read multiple complaints about this & something needs to be done .”

“Since about november 2011, my 2007 Jeep Compass has stalled out after refueling when I fill the gas tank. It does not stall out if I do not fill the tank all the way. It has been inspected by two different chrysler dealerships in 2012 and 2014 and both falsely accused me of overfilling the tank. No one has been able to fix the problem.”

“I bought a 07 Jeep Compass from a private dealership less than a year and a half ago and took it to a mechanic before purchasing and no problems were found. On tuesday of last week a weird noise was coming from the engines hike driving around town and after taking it to a local dealership/service repair center the issue was in my transmission and it needed to be replaced completely. ..updated 05/19/15”

“Stalls after fill up. We do not top off or overfill the tank. Everytime we fill the tank up to the automatic shut off, the engine stalls within about 30 seconds. Generally, the engine will stall if idling at a stop light after fillup. The engine does not stall if the vehicle is running above 25-30 miles per hour. The engine starts right back up without problem, but will continue to stall. After vehicle has been driven a few miles, the stalling issue disappears entirely.”
