AFTER FILLING THE GAS TANK THE CAR BUCKS AND THE ENGINE DIES, FORCING LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL AND ACCELERATION IN TRAFFIC. ALSO, THERE ARE DIFFICULTIES FILLING THE TANK WITH GAS - THE PUMP SHUTS OFF CONSTANTLY, ABOUT EVERY 1/3 GALLON OR SO, WHICH MEANS IT TAKES ABOUT 15-20 MINUTES TO FILL THE TANK.
... I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC TWICE AND SPENT MORE THAN $300 IN ATTEMPTS TO REPAIR THIS TO NO AVAIL. I'VE OWNED THE CAR FOR 10 YEARS, IT HAS JUST ABOUT 50,000 MILES ON IT - I BOUGHT IT NEW AT THE DEALER.Read more

WHILE DRIVING ON A RESIDENTIAL ROAD THE 2009 JEEP PATRIOT'S SUBFRAME BROKE. BECAUSE OF THIS MY VEHICLE ALMOST LOST THE PASSENGER TIRE. HAD IT BEEN ON THE FREEWAY I WOULD HAVE BEEN SEVERELY INJURED. AFTER BEING INSPECTED BY THE MECHANIC HE HAS NEVER SEEN RUST THIS BAD AND IT'S MUCH MORE DETERIORATED

I CANNOT PUT FUEL INTO THE VEHICLE WITHOUT IT CONTINUOUSLY SHUTTING THE GAS OFF AFTER A FEW SECONDS. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THAT THE ENTIRE GAS TANK NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. I FOUND A TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN (TSB 14-001-09 REV.A) THAT ADDRESSES THE EXACT SAME ISSUE WITH OTHER CHRYSLER AUTOMOBILES, BUT T

I HAVE BEEN QUOTED $1400.00 TO HAVE THE FUEL TANK REPLACED. I DO NOT UNDERSTAND WHY CHRYSLER JEEP IS NOT TAKING RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS ISSUE WITH THE 2009 PATRIOT. I WOULD BE INTERESTED IN KNOWING HOW MANY JEEP PATRIOT OWNERS HAD TO HAVE THEIR GAS TANKS REPLACED AND IF CHRYSLER JEEP HAS REPAIR RECORDS OF GAS TANK REPLACEMENTS DONE IN THEIR REPAIR SHOPS. WHAT HAPPENS IF SOMEONE CANNOT AFFORD TO HAVE THIS FIXED?Read more
