2007 Jeep COMPASS 4X4 Fuel Propulsion System Problems, Complaints and Defects

Description of the problem	This is the same complaint that numerous people have report about the fuel system. My 2007 jeep compass will begin to sputter and eventually shut-off after every fill up with gas. The problem is with the fuel vaporizer and other components in the gas tank. If you fill the gas tank up all the way to the top with gas, it will cause this failure of rough idling and shutting the engine off every time, which is extremely dangerous while drive because it locks the steering wheel and transmission also. Chrysler has fixed this exact same issue in several other makes and models of their vehicles that were manufactured around this same year. But, they have not issued a recall to fix this same dangerous problem with the jeep compass yet. At this point, i'm contemplating contacting my lawyer to see if this can be better brought to chrysler's attention, as i'm certain that everyone that has a jeep compass near 2007-2009 year model is having the same issue's with the fuel system. My suggestion to anyone reading this, is to not fill the gas tank all the way up while pumping gas. Do not "top off the gas." this is a temporary fix to the issue, as it allows gas vapors to expel properly. Also, if the tank was filled too much at this gas station (topped off), and this stuttering does occur, it can help to stop and remove the gas cap for a short while until the gas has been ran down in the tank enough.
