Example complaints
Selected from NHTSA records; personal details are removed. They are consumer reports, not findings.
“After filling up the gas tank the car repeatedly stalls. It is not being over-filled. Not human error. Extremely dangerous. Stalls in traffic - no warning. Just quits. Repeatedly. Numerous trips to the dealer and lots of money spent and it was not repaired. Complained to chrysler who recommended we take it to another dealer. We did. The entire fuel tank had to be replaced. Mechanics familiar with the problem. Nhtsa site documents 35 reports of the same problem. 16 reports in 2016. Numerous also in the 2008 Jeep. There needs to be an investigation into why no recall recommended.”

It was then fine after I restarted it until I got to a roundabout where it stalled again, losing all power steering, brakes, power, speed, in heavy traffic. It was fine for a week after this until I got gas again, in which case, I was just about to enter the interstate when it stalled again, losing all of the basic functions again in rush hour traffic where I had to sit on the side of the road for 20 minutes while my vehicle ran and stalled repeatedly until it worked itself out. …”
