Description of the problem	Upon each complete fill-up with gasoline, shortly after driving off from fueling, the vehicle will buck severely, and shut off. When it shuts off and rolls to a stop, steering control and power braking is lost, and you are at the mercy of all traffic around you! This has been going on since around 2012. From countless hours of investigation from other owners on forums, discussions with dealership personnel, as well as my own independent mechanic's electronic and mechanical analysis, this appears to be a common complaint among patriot & compass owners of multiple production years. The only work around is to not fill up the (already tiny) fuel tank completely. The most likely root cause is a malfunctioning fuel tank roll-over valve, which allows raw fuel to enter the evap system, and upon the ecm issuing a "purge command," the vehicle stalls. Compounding the situation is that the roll-over valve is not replaceable separately from the entire fuel tank assembly. With the vehicle being long out of warranty, the cost of a complete new fuel tank assembly plus labor, is prohibitive. This is clearly a safety related defect that chrysler does not want to stand behind. I have had several close calls when leaving gas stations, pulling out into traffic and nearly being rear-ended when the vehicle stalled. I imagine if nhtsa does not hold chrysler accountable for all of these non-conforming vehicles, which by now are mostly out of warranty, the only way to get chrysler to take responsibility, would be to get into an accident due to the stalling issue, and then sue them, assuming i lived! This is unacceptable. Dealerships and chrysler customer relations have been absolutely no help at all. You are our only hope.
