Every time I fill my gas tank it takes 20 minutes to fill it just keeps shutting gas off at handle. I have checked a Jeep forum it says it is a roll over valve in gas tank and entire tank has to be replaced at a cost of around $800 to $1000 dollars. It also caused engine to run rough and shut off a lot. This is something Jeep should have to repair at their cost not consumers. It has been going on for about 6-8 months and it scare me each time it happens Thank you

Since I bought my keep in July 2020.. everytime I've filled my gas tank all the way.. at first my Jeep would do a little jumping on regular stree as I drive towards freeway but after a little bit it would go away.. but as I continue to drive for about 15 min on freeway my Jeep begins to make this whining sound and then my Jeep would accelerate above 5 on its own (scary) then would go back to normal this usually was while going up a hill on freeway.. whining cont. And accelerating may happen once more while going up the hill.. then my transmission temp light will come on. I usually pull over to let my car rest because I'm scared to drive it after it had a mind of it's own. This has only happened after I fill my tank to the full.please fix this I'm afraid it will blow my engine while on freeway ! three times this has happened after a full tank has been applied. So step by step I fill tank to full as I drive on street towards freeway it will jump a little but will go away by time I get on freeway once on freeway car seems fine for about 10 -15 min then I start to hear a whining sound almost as if it's stuck in a gear.. as I'm driving up a hill on freeway the whining gets worse and my rpms don't seem to go above 50 then my my engine will just accelerate on its own all the way passed 5.. then return to normal quickly after.. whining noise cont. As I'm still driving about 10 min later my transmission temp light will come on. That's when I get off freeway and pull over to let my car rest for a little bit.. once I get back on freeway after 10 min rest everything is back to normal no mor whining and temp light is gone.. this is an issue after filling up my tank to the full!

The vehicle will continuously stall and buck while idling for about one minute after filling up with fuel. This has occasionally happened on the road while the vehicle is in motion immediately after leaving the gas station. In these cases, the driver is put in a very dangerous situations, as the steering wheel locks-up when the car stalls. The car is never "topped-off" but filled until the first pump click. After about a minute, the problem will resolve and the vehicle will run fine until the next fueling. The exact cause is unknown, but the evap system or fuel tank rollover-valve is suspected as the culprit. This is an extremely dangerous problem that many other Jeep Patriot owners experience and needs to be dealt with.

I bought this car with these safety issues, there is sold as is condition, but after having the oil pan and gaskets replaced, we were informed that the car also has other safety issues, for instance, it needs a catiltic converters that failed inspection, and steering equipment unsafe to endure a safe driving conditions. These conditions were fond by a certified mechanic, during the initial service.

While driving around 40 mph on the highway the Jeep slowed down and stalled. No warnings or indicator lights came on at that time. Shut Jeep down and restarted waiting a few seconds before accelerating. At the time of accelerating Jeep stuttered a bit and then drove from 5 mph to 20 mph without encouragement from gas petal. Immediately applied the break and car stalled again. Again restarted the car to move off of highway and the throttle indicator light finally came on. No indications before stalls happened that there was a problem. Had to have the full body throttle and fuel injector replaced for 1500.00/2 day repair. 2010 Jeep has 86,000 miles on it. Very concerned that there was no warning, light, or change in driving before stalling with kids in the car on the highway. It could have been a deadly accident had I not been driving at 7 am with no traffic on the road.

Automatic transaxle overheating. Very dangerous to happen specially if you are in the freeway. I believe that they make this model thinking that drivers will consider not to accelerate speed in a hot climate. Car is at 75 mph in the freeway on a hot climate of 80F.

My 2010 Patriot limited stalls all the time. It gets worse while sitting at a red light. I have to put the car in neutral, rev up the engine so it does not go dead. It seems to get worse if the gas tank is below 1/2 tank. Also I really thought someone was stealing my gas because the gauge goes up and down. All the info I have looked up it's all Jeep products 2010 2011 2012 2013 all have the same problems.

I stopped at a convenient store on my way home from work prior to this my radio continue to turn off and on. When I went to start my Jeep back up it would not start and was smoking. I had it pulled to the dealership the next day and they told me that the starter wire had caught afire and fried the starter and possible the fuse box. Had I not stopped and continue to drive the other 15 miles home I would probably be dead. The car would have stalled on the highway in a construction zone where there would have been no place for me to pull off the highway and with no light any other car traveling the highway could have hit me and with me at a standstill and the speed limit 50 in the construction area I would possibly been killed or hurt severely. There was no warning just that the radio would cut off and on.

I have a 2010 Jeep Patriot sport with 50000 miles on it. I also had the dealership install an auto start for winter months to warm up car. I drove the car on Dec 7 for 10 miles traveling at a speed of 40. I stopped home for 15 minutes and when I restarted my car a red flashing lightning bolt lit up on my dash which was the throttle accompanied by the off road traction control. I backed out the car and it was shaking and loud. I decided to drive another vehicle a few days later I drove it to the dealership taking the backroads and it would not go over 20 mph and shook frequently. I was concerned for my safety. I have a lifetime powertrain engine warranty and thomas Dodge dealership in highland, in is not covering under warranty. They state the throttle is not a component of the engine or power train. The cost of repair is $690. I was wondering if any recalls exist on the Chrysler, Dodge and Jeep in regards to throttle body assembly and to consider my model, make and year.

I was driving over to my parents house and my dad noticed a smell of plastic burning when I arrived. He lifted the hood and the air inlet duct was not properly positioned and had moved over and was laying on the manifold. He noticed 1 of the 2 screws used to hold the duct in position was missing. He pulled the duct part off and noticed a hole in the underside where it had laid on the manifold and heated up melting the plastic housing. He covered up the hole with duct tape and relocated it to the proper position. He repositioned it and secured the part with zip-ties.

Engine stalled while driving 45mph on a city street in normal weather conditions.

My Patriot stalled on the freeway. This was the second time this has happened. I took it to the mechanic where they said this could have been from a faulty gas gauge and I was out of gasoline. I do not think this was the case.

Jeep seems to get revved up and gets stuck there, and I can't seem to stop it short off shutting it down. Last time this happened was on 10/8/12 as I was getting on freeway. I was not going more than 30 miles an hour when all of a sudden it revved up to about 5. however, when I took foot off gas it did not go down, even after tapping brake. Also, even after giving gas again, could barely get it to move so I could get to side of road, (thank goodness nobody was behind me) as I coasted over and shut it down right there, after restarting it was fine. My mom and sister were with me and can verify what happened. This has actually happened a couple of times before, but never when entering freeway! the first time it happened was 2010 and I called dealer right after incident, (actually shut Jeep off and called right away), don't think they believed me. Jeep also feels like it is going to stall (more often this year), especially at lights, have to give it gas while waiting. I mentioned this also at last oil change at dealer, nobody seems to think there is a problem. After hearing about incidents with 2011 and 2012 models I thought I should document mine as may be same problem.
