| Description of the problem | Filling gas tank to top (fill valve turns off at pump) will cause jeep to sputter and stall when driving out of the gas station. Stalling will most often happen when accelerating out of the gas station lot into traffic. Car won't start again until turning the key completely to the off position and then starting again. After that, car will operate normally. If the gas tank is not filled till the gas automatically turns off, the jeep will run just fine. If left running a bit before accelerating out, then seems to be fine. Need to burn off some gas from the top. I've had this issue before (5 years ago, 2012) and solution was to replace the gas tank. Not covered under warranty. That worked for a bit, but it is occurring again. Have had it diagnosed with dealership as same problem with gas tank and a valve on the tank. |
