| Description of the problem | Shortly after refueling the vehicle, it stalls and sputters for 3-60 seconds. This happens after every refuel. During most fill ups i am driving on the highway and after the fill up i get back on the highway and get up to 60-70mph, when it sputters at this speed the car jerks and i briefly lose the ability to accelerate because gas will not pump during the sputtering. If i fill up while driving in the city the jeep simply just dies if the rpm are under 900 or if it's idling. Everything on the jeep is stock, no aftermarket parts. I have seen reports of this happening to numerous other jeep patriot owners. I am unsure of the part causing the issue. |
