| Description of the problem | As several other 2012 jeep patriot 4x4 owners have noted, it takes me forever to fill my tank - pump keeps clicking off. This started at about 70,00 miles - i now have 80,00 miles on it. Of course my vehicle, which i purchased new, was not part of the recall to replace the faulty fuel tank transfer tube. Even if i pay out of pocket to have this repaired i know this is not the real problem as others have noted - it is a problem with the gas tank vent system which would necessitate the replacement of the whole gas tank. C'mon chrysler, please admit this is a problem and do the right thing. If not, i will not be purchasing any future chrysler vehicles. |
