Description of the problem	After re-fueling my jeep 2010 jeep compass until the tank is full (not over filled) the car drives heavy; engine stalls and engine has stopped completely while idling in traffic and at a intersection stop light on route 102 in londonderry, nh off of exit 4 off of interstate 93. It has happened multiple times and the check engine light briefly has flickered on, however, my mechanic stated the warning light did not show in the computers history. Thus causing no way to actually diagnose and fix the problem. This is dangerous as i had difficulty restarting the engine after each incident . However, i was able to eventually start and drive(although while the gas tank is full it drives heavy)the car. It seems, that the problem dissipates after using the gas and it has not occurred when the gas tank is not filled to its potential capacity. The car has approximately 83,960 miles as of today, july 3rd, 2011. This is a very dangerous issue that needs to be addressed and covered cost wise/recalled with jeep accordingly. This has only occurred on a full tank of gas while idling at intersections. I know that on the car gurus website multiple jeep compass owners and jeep owners in general have experienced this safety issue.
