Recently reported FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM problems on 2012 Jeep Patriot

Jeep stalls out on road. could only go 20 mph after restarting

The gas tank can not be filled at the gas pump without reducing the flow to the minimum level. as a result it take 20 minutes to put 10 gallons in the gas tank. this is dangerous late at night or in bad weather. this issue started in october and is getting worse.

My 2012 jeep patriot 4wd 2.4l is around 106,000 miles. about 2 months ago, i was pumping gas and i noticed it was only pumping about 75 cents at a time before stopping. i thought it was a faulty pump but soon began to realize it happened everywhere! my check engine light also comes every now and then, warning me that the catalytic converter is faulty. so i found the recalls for both of these problems which include 2012 patriots, yet they say my car is not covered by the recall. seriously? the only recall that is covered for my car is 16v-668 which is the occupant restraint. why are the other problems that are popping up with everyone not covered?

2012 jeep patriot 4wd the catalytic converter recall includes 2012 jeep patriot front wheel drive vehicles; however, my four wheel drive vehicle is experiencing this same issue. my jeep should be covered under the recall. this is a safety concern that needs to be addressed. i did not even know this was a recall until it was too late. this malfunction caused my check engine light to come on while in motion on a city road, and it should be fixed by dodge/chrysler/jeep immediately.*pm

I recently learned of the recalls for my vehicle after i had bought it. i am having a similar issue as described for the recalled fuel system issues. i don't know if it was ever fixed in my vehicle or even if the vehicle was checked for it.

I have been trying almost 2 months to get my vehicle recall service. problem the dealership does not have the part in to correct the problem. everytime i am told to call back next this is terrible service the recall is for emission recall- catalytic converter efficiency i scheduled an appointment for recall service last week for 5/17/19. when i arrived the dealership didnt have me on the appointment book & all the parts were not in. my vehicle isnt driving smooth. this problem should have been repaired immediately

It was confirmed by the dealership my 2012 jeep patriot been diagnosed with an internal fuel tank failure. my manufacturer date was nov. 2011 and a recall was issued in dec. 2011 to replace the fuel tank (of course my vehicle didn't qualify). i do not have $1600 to replace something that chrysler should take responsibility for and fix. i have a feeling that they knew that these gas tanks were faulty before dec. 2011, and in order to not have to replace them, they took the easy and barely any money out of their pocket route and did a recall for the transfer hose hoping that would correct the issue which if that's what they thought, sorry it didn't work. i do not feel safe driving the vehicle, let alone trying to put gas in it with the gas pump shutting off every few cents. the only way i can put gas in is by a very slow trickle which takes about 10 - 15 minutes. within the last few weeks, it's getting even more difficult as i hear the gas backing up in the filler neck. the dealership was not any help other than telling me how much ...

On my way to work, my car stalled 3 times while at a stop light and once while moving. after the moving stall, my engine light came on. the error code is p0339. it also stalled twice on my way home from work. it didn't stall while i was moving on the second trip because my foot happened to be on the gas when it tried to stall. i felt the car jerk backwards then re-engage the engine back to where it was before it almost stalled. the car had done a little jerk every once in a while, but now it's multiple times in a single trip.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. while the vehicle was being refueled at a fuel station, the fuel pump clicked off before enough fuel entered the vehicle. the failure recurred at different fuel stations. one attendant attempted to fill up the tank manually, but was unsuccessful. there was no warning indicator illuminated. the dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the failure mileage was not provided.

Gas pump keeps clicking off when fueling. mechanic tested evap system and stated vehicle needs a new fuel tank. the jeep has 62,000 miles on it and has been well maintained. this is an unusual repair and is extremely high in cost. i believe this should be included and covered with the other fuel tank recalls on jeep patriots.

When i was at the gas station, fuel pump kept shutting off. i took to the dealership. the problem is the rollover vent valve on top of the fuel tank does not open to release air. they told me i had to replace the whole tank and their estimation is more than $1800 before the tax. i see the same problem people filed here. the repair should be on the manufacturer side instead of customers.

Catalytic converter recall it appears that my 2012 jeep patriot was not included in the recent catalytic converter recall of 2011-2016 jeep patriots. yet, my vehicle would not pass pa state inspection in december of 2018 due to the catalytic converter and failed emissions tests. after paying $1200 to get my catalytic converter repaired in december, fca is now issuing a recall in march on all 2011-2016 jeep patriots? except mine? why? futhermore, fca canada was aware of the problem and issued a recall on the same vehicles back in 2018. why was fca america so slow to issue a recall? i want to be reimbursed for the money (i'm not a large corporation with billions of dollars) i put out for repairs to a vehicle that should have been recalled sooner and were caused by fca's attempts to save money and circumvent the epa's emissions and safety standards. thereby jeopardizing the health and safety of hard working honest americans.
