| Description of the problem | Every time i get gas my jeep bucks and stalls for a few days. It bucked and stalled probably a dozen times on my way home from getting gas yesterday. I just read a whole page of complaints regarding the fuel tank being faulty letting liquid gas in the manifold (something like that) but it's dangerous and it's a defect obviously. Stalling while entering a highway ramp to a 75 mph road is scary. I have had this problem for a few years but it's expensive to repair. I've paid mechanics to repair it before but they misdiagnose it and charge me to deal with the transmission and transmission fluid etc. Please do something. Repair is $1200 and my jeep only has 100,000 miles on it. Thank you for your time. |
