2009 Jeep Patriot Fuel system Problems

“When my daughter fills this car up with gas, it will stall when she is at stop signs/lights when idling. It has happened while she was trying to make a turn. This is so dangerous. I have seen that this is a known problem with the roll over sensor in the gas tank, and it needs to be a manufacturer recall.”

“Every time I fill up gas tank car wont start immediately and when I finally get it to start it turns off again when I drive off or at first stop I make. Problem seems to only occur when gas tank is completely full.”

“Takes about 15 minutes or more to put gas in my gas tank. On the internet search it's a common problem that a lot of Jeep Patriot's have. From what I have read the cause is a roll over valve which is plastic and located in the tank itself. That the only way to solve the problem is to get a new tank put in. I feel that they should have had a recall on this and should have fixed the problem.on the internet vehicles with the same problem ranging from 2007-2015. This happens every time I try to put gas in my car.”

“When I try to fill the gas tank the fuel will gush back out towards me. The only way that I can get gas into the tank is to gently let it trickle in which takes for ever. I took it to a mechanic and he said this is a very common problem that a vent inside the gas tank is faulty and cannot be repaired. The fix is a new gas tank and about $800.00 after doing research I found that this is a very common problem with jeeps. Seems to me that having gasoline flush back on you is a very dangerous situation. …”

“12/12/19 tried to get on I-295 all lights on dash came on including malfunction indicator, esp bas, and others all came on when no lights were on before. Lost power to Jeep on 295 could not go any fast then 25 MPH and then stalled; almost rear ended. Could restart Jeep, all dash lights still on, no power past 25 MPH and made it off an off ramp where stalled again. Towed Jeep to mechanic where they replaced PCM, intake manifold, and o2 censor. Called Jeep because there is a recall to PCM and was told my VIN not included. …”
