| Description of the problem | Engine light came on,fuel tank would not allow a steady flow of gasoline from gasoline pump to gas tank, in other words the gas nozzle kept shutting off as thought the tank were full. The car gasoline tank would allow 2/10 of a gallon to go in then shut off. We had to / have to (same problem now occurring) repeatedly do the latter to fill our tank. The first time we paid out $400 with the repair shop replacing one of the two fuel pumps. We understand there is a fuel hose in the tank of this year patriot that had a recall and we were never told or notified. |
