2007 Jeep Patriot 4X4 Engine Problems

“Vapor/liquid separator valve. Everytime I fill up my gas tank, within a few meters of the gas station my car begins to bucks and stall. Every single time! Almost causing multiple accidents. This is an ongoing problem”

“I have owned my 2007 Jeep patriot since june 2017. About 3 months into owning it I have noticed that it will stall directly after I fill my gas tank. After I leave the gas station, I notice that the Jeep starts to rattle and slow down, and while this is happening my steering wheel locks up and I am unable to turn and accelerate. This has happened about 10 times so far, and the most recent occurrence (12/11/17) it stalled 3 times within 5 minutes before the problem went away. …”

“I bought this vehicle in january 2016 for our daughter to take to college out of town. I checked for recalls before I bought and found none. The vehicle was purchased from a chevy dealer. After our purchase, I filled the tank with fuel. When I pulled away from the gas station and into traffic the vehicle stalls and cuts off in the middle of two lanes of traffic. I restarted it and went about a block and the vehicle stalls out going about twenty miles per hour while I was in traffic. …”

“For the past several years, my Jeep patriot cuts off every time I get gas. I've taken it to the dealership several times. They have replaced my fuel pump and auxiliary (I believe thats what its called) and I still have the same problem. Ive also had my throttle bottled cleaned twice. Occasionally, the engine light comes on with code p0442 but goes off after a day or two.it's becoming super frustrated and clearly dangerous to continue to drive this car with no solution.”

“The problem has been ongoing for over a year even after trying several different expensive corrective repairs.after refueling my Jeep patriot, it stalls bucks and jerks. I start it up, and upon pressing the accelerator and pull away from pumps or out into traffic it begins to sputter buck and stall. It is very dangerouse esecially when pulling out of a gas station into traffic which has caused several close calls of my being hit because it has stalled in intersections and on the highway. I relaced the o2 sensor and it did not correct the situation. …”
