NHTSA Complaint #11282830 — 2014 JEEP CHEROKEE

FILLED UP THE GAS TANK AND JEEP STARTED STALLING WITH IN THE FIRST MILE OF DRIVING, WAS THINKING IT MIGHT BE THE FUEL CAP SO I TIGHTENED IT AND DROVE THE JEEP FOR A FEW MILES AND EVERYTHING WENT BACK TO NORMAL. NEXT TIME, AFTER ANOTHER FILL UP A MONTH LATER, MY CAR STALLED WHEN I STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN ABOUT A MILE AFTER FILL UP, I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER, AND I CHECKED THE GAS CAP AGAIN TO BE SURE IT WAS TIGHT AND RESTART THE ENGINE, THEN WHILE IN MOTION GOING THRU A TURN AT AN INTERSECTION ABOUT 1/4 OF MILE DOWN THE ROAD, IT TRIED TO STALL AGAIN BUT LUCKILY DIDN'T COMPLETELY SHUT OFF,AND THE TRANSMISSION SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL, AND THE DISPLAY SAID I NEEDED TO PLACE JEEP IN PARK THEN SELECT DRIVE. I WAS ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, AND PLACED THE SHIFTER TO NEUTRAL THEN BACK TO DRIVE. I PROCEEDED DOWN THE ROAD AND THE VEHICLE AGAIN SHIFTED IN TO NEUTRAL AND THE DISPLAY STATED THE SAME, TO PLACE IN PARK THEN SELECT DRIVE. THIS ALL HAPPENED WITHIN TWO MILES AFTER FILLING UP. I DROVE IT ANOTHE 60 MILES OR SO AFTER THIS WITH NO PROBLEMS. HAD NO REAL PROBLEMS BEFORE THIS, OTHER THAN THE SHIFTING LAG EVERYONE HAS COMPLAINED ABOUT. ALL RECALLS HAVE BEEN ADDRESSED. NOT SURE IF THIS IS ONE PROBLEM CAUSING THE OTHER OR TWO SEPARATE PROBLEMS.I WILL TEST IT OUT ON A BACK ROAD AND TRY TO GET A PICTURE OF THE DISPLAY IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN AND PLAN A VISIT TO THE DEALER FOR A SERVICE CHECK AFTER THE HOLIDAY WEEKEND.
