Consumer Description
2012 JEEP PATRIOT 4 X 4 TAKES 20 MINUTES TO FILL GAS TANK DUE TO FAULTY VALVE. HAD THE DEALERSHIP RUN DIAGNOSTIC TESTS TODAY AND THEY TELL ME A NEW GAS TANK IS THE ONLY FIX DUE TO A PROBLEM WITH A VALVE INSIDE THE TANK....THEY CALLED IT A "FLAPPER" AND AN "INLET CHECK VALVE". TALKED TO JEEP AND TO TWO DEALERSHIPS AND NO ONE WANTS TO TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR THIS ISSUE. I ALSO FOUND THE FOLLOWING TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETIN WHICH EXTENDS THE GAS SYSTEM WARRANTY ON A NUMBER OF MAKES/MODELS FOR THIS VERY SAME ISSUE, BUT THE JEEP PATRIOT IS NOT INCLUDED - TSB 14-001-09 REV.A THIS IS EXTREMELY FRUSTRATING AND DANGEROUS.
