Other Fuel System Hoses Lines/piping, And Fittings problems of the 2007 Jeep Compass

In my family we own a 2007 Jeep Compass which we are pleased to own. However, last year (2018) we found that it was spitting gasoline outside of the car after we finished pumping it. It looked like the car was pumping the gas back to us without we even turning the car on. At the beginning I could not pump enough gasoline into the fuel tank. It stopped unexpectedly and spit the fuel out, with enough force and quantity to fill the cap compartment and notably reaching the floor. We took it to the dealer three for the same issue and they changed a couple of parts and partially solved the problem in February 2019. Partially because when we filled the tank full, it caused the engine to turn off within 5 minutes of fueling. However, in June 2019, we found that the car was again spitting gas out when we fill the tank to full. Again, with enough force and quantity to fill the cap compartment and notably reaching the floor. Therefore, we decided to make this safety complain because not only my family is in high danger but also every person at a gas station where we fill with gasoline. Moreover, it is concerning that a car develops this type of problem by itself and Jeep does not seem to have a defined solution for this matter.

This is the same complaint that numerous people have report about the fuel system. My 2007 Jeep Compass will begin to sputter and eventually shut-off after every fill up with gas. The problem is with the fuel vaporizer and other components in the gas tank. If you fill the gas tank up all the way to the top with gas, it will cause this failure of rough idling and shutting the engine off every time, which is extremely dangerous while drive because it locks the steering wheel and transmission also. Chrysler has fixed this exact same issue in several other makes and models of their vehicles that were manufactured around this same year. But, they have not issued a recall to fix this same dangerous problem with the Jeep Compass yet. At this point, I'm contemplating contacting my lawyer to see if this can be better brought to Chrysler's attention, as I'm certain that everyone that has a Jeep Compass near 2007-2009 year model is having the same issue's with the fuel system. My suggestion to anyone reading this, is to not fill the gas tank all the way up while pumping gas. Do not "top off the gas. " this is a temporary fix to the issue, as it allows gas vapors to expel properly. Also, if the tank was filled too much at this gas station (topped off), and this stuttering does occur, it can help to stop and remove the gas cap for a short while until the gas has been ran down in the tank enough.

Vehicle does not accept fuel easily as pump shuts down while trying to fill tank. Informed will need new gas tank at my expense as possibly filter in tank is defective. With current temperatures below freezing much of the time it is possible that vehicle may run out of fuel in a rural area without warning. Possibility of exposure to extremely low temperatures. I have never had to replace a gas tank in over 50 years of driving many different makes and models!.

Hose from filler cap to tank seemed to be pluged as it would not take more than half gallon at a time at the pump, leading to spilled gas at the pump, (seems to be worse in cold weather. ).
