2010 Jeep Patriot 4x4 problems

Filed Mar 18, 2019 · Fuel system · 76,000 miles · MI

I've made a complaint already but my 2010 jeep patriot again stalled out after getting a full tank of gas and driving off, luckily still at the gas station and when I was getting coffee for my 3 and a half hour drive to school, it stalled out 3 more times when I am in drive. I was scared it was going to stall out on me while I'm driving for the whole drive. It's very dangerous because the steering wheel is locked and what if it happened when I am on the road and there is a car behind me? I could get rear ended. Many people are having the same issue with the patriot.

Whenever I put a full tank of gas in my car, my car stalls out. One time, I just left the gas station and it stalled and then when I went to get food, it stalled out again. I've heard of other people that have patriots, it happens to them. My car was in drive and it also happened when I was stopped with my foot on the brakes. One time it happened when my patriot was in parked. It's very dangerous because if someone was turning, they won't be able to since the wheel locks so you can't turn it. There should be a recall on this because it could be the fuel tank or the gas cap from what I've heard and it's not just me having this issue.

The vehicle suddenly and unexpectedly stalls while driving, following a fill up of the fuel tank. The engine shuts off, and all power is lost, including power steering and power brakes. Requires attempting to coast the vehicle to a safe stop. This is a safety concern as there have been several occasions where we were almost rear ended due to having to stop in the roadway. Requires waiting briefly, and then the vehicle may restart, however, it will also stall out again until the fuel level in the tank decreases. It has been brought to my attention that this is occurring on many jeep patriot and compass models over many model years.

At any speed the jeep is apt to start wobbling side to side after driving over bumps. (frequently called the "death wobble" by jeep owners when describing this condition.) at highway speeds this makes it difficult to stay in lanes. The hood hinges do not hold the hood securely down. At speeds above 30mph you can witness the hood wobbling up and down and side to side. You may read about both of these issues in dozens of online forums regarding jeep issues from owners across the country.

A few days after hiitting a pothole on a country paved road, my patriot lost wipers, headlights, turn signals & rear wiper. None of the fuses were damaged or blown. I had the dealer run diagnostics but nothing showed up. I had the fuse box & relays replaced. It continues to happen without warning while sitting still & sometimes while in motion. Very dangerous in rain.

After filling up with gas, the car started jerking when driving. When sitting at a traffic light, the car just shut off. This occurs after filling up the tank with gas. When sitting at traffic lights, the cars RPM's drop that the car almost shuts off if you don't keep it moving.
