Engine stalls several minutes after filling up the gas tank. Occurs on every fill up with gas. The stalling stops after being driving a mile to more.

Filled gasoline up and had car idle while driving. Had to place car in park, turn ignition off and back on to get it to turn back on. This happened two times and happens everytime I fill up gas in car. Other Patriots have reported same issue and I have been very close to accidents due to this.

ONLINE DATA SEARCH APPEARS TO INDICATE THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEPS. HAVING YOUR CAR DIE IN TRAFFIC CREATES A DANGEROUS SITUATION.

VEHICLE HAS HAD STALLING ISSUES FOLLOWING REFUELING FOR SEVERAL YEARS NOW. ASIDE FROM AFTER REFUELING THE STALLING IS UNPREDICTABLE AS FOR TIMING. SOMETIMES IT STALLS IMMEDIATELY AFTER REFUELING AND STARTING THE ENGINE, OTHER TIMES IT WILL STALL AFTER I'M ALREADY IN TRAFFIC SEVERAL MINUTES LATER. THIS CREATES A SIGNIFICANT SAFETY HAZARD.
