 Description of the problemThe car had 1/4 of a tank of gas. While driving up a hill just outside of flagstaff, az the engine stalled and stopped running. The car would not start even after sitting for at least an hour. At the dealership the car started right up. The dealership in flagstaff said that it had run out of gas because of a design flaw and that they have seen this before. They told us that even though there was gas in the tank if it is less than half full and you go up a hill this will happen. It was scary as there was no power steering or power brakes. It was lucky that there was no traffic on the road near us at the time. Jeep did a recall of the patriots in 2012 for a similar problem and it seems to me that the design problem was not fixed in the 2013 models.

  • What is Recall?

    A recall is when a product is removed from the market or a correction is made to the product because it is either defective or potentially harmful.
  • What is Failure?

    Failure is the state or condition of not meeting a desirable or intended objective, and may be viewed as the opposite of success. Product failure ranges from failure to sell the product to fracture of the product, in the worst cases leading to personal injury, the province of forensic engineering.
