| Description of the problem | Every time gas tank is filled the car bucks then stalls and the steering wheel locks. This happens right after filling the tank and pulling out of the gas station. I have read on forums that this has been a problem in jeeps for years but has yet to be addressed. According to the post the issue has to deal with the vapor/liquid separator valve. Additionally, i have also experienced issues with gas pumps shutting off when attempting to fill the tank. I attempted to take it to the jeep dealership where i was told i needed a new gas cap. $100 later and still the same issue. |
