Three problems related to other fuel system tank filling/charging have been reported for the 2010 Jeep Compass. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
After purchasing my new/used Compass from a dealer in town I went to fill the gas tank up. Not really a problem this time filling the tank but upon stating the vehicle it started to stall shake , spit, and sputter down the road after only about a 1/10 of a mile. During this time of stall the steering became almost impossible to turn while driving towards oncoming traffic . This wasnt the only time it done this . . . . No every time I go to fill up the tank with gas it does the same thing and acts the same way it straightens up after running a few miles (if it stays running ) or restarting the engine. Lately it takes me about a half an hour to fill the tank because the pump shuts off like it is about to over-spill except the tank is empty and it isn't the pump because it does this at every gas station I come to now. The safety factor here is the stalling while in motion without warning loosing control of where my car is going is a safety hazard and this needs to be address before a head on collision.
Car stalls after you fill up the gas tank and drive away from the gas station. If you come to stop and/or idol within 5 minutes of filling up your car tank or coasting along it will stall.
When filling up my gas tank (after longer trips 75+miles) the car will stall then die within feet of leaving the gas station. The car will buck and jump forward to prevent itself from stalling / dying after the fill up. Usually I am filling up with the fuel gauge 1 gallon from empty. I believed it was just air in the fuel lines, but for this to happen when the vehicle is waiting at a stop light or pulling out of the gas station, I am now concerned it is not just air in the fuel in lines. Please provide information as what to do, and fix this! many other people have experienced this while in traffic and its a dangerous problem!.
