2007 JEEP COMPASS Fuelpropulsion System Problems

Every time I fill up my gas tank the car will stall and shut down in the middle of the road. This is extremely dangerous as I need to put my car in park to restart it.

MY 2007 JEEP COMPASS WAS JUST SITTING IN THE YARD NOT BEING DRIVEN WAS NOT HOT AND IT JUST CAUGHT ON FIRE BY ITSELF THE FIRE DEPARTMENT HAD TO COME AND ASSIST WITH PUT IN THE FIRE OUT THE FIRE CHIEF STATED FROM HIS INVESTIGATION THAT IT WAS ELECTRICAL PROBLEM FROM THE LIGHTS AND AS I SAID THE VEHICLE WAS NOT BEING OPERATED AND THE LIGHTS WAS NOT ON

WHEN PUTTING FUEL IN THE GAS TANK, THE PUMP KICKS OFF AND GAS SPLASHES OUT LIKE THE TANK IS FULL. WE HAVE TO HOLD THE NOZZLE AND LET IT TRICKLE IN THE GAS FOR QUITE SOMETIME. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW WE HOLD THE GAS NOZZLE OR WHAT ANGLE, IT SIMPLY SHUTS OFF THE PUMP LIKE ITS FULL, AND I'M DEALING WITH SPILT GAS ON ME AND THE GROUND! I CANNOT FILL MY TANK! AFTER SPEAKING WITH A JEEP DEALERSHIP, THEY VERIFIED IT DOES HAPPEN TO THE COMPASSES. WHAT! THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE 2012, FOR THE SAME PROBLEM. I AM REQUESTING A FULL REFUND FOR GETTING MINE FIXED, FOR SEEMS TO BE THE SAME PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM GOT WORSE, I NEED GAS AND IT ALAS IT DIDN'T ALLOW FOR A FILL UP OF GAS. *TR

FILL UP WITH GAS, GET A COUPLE BLOCKS DOWN THE ROAD AND VEHICLE STALLS, TRY RESTARTING AND IT HESITATES

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...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMPASS. AFTER THE FUEL TANK WAS FILLED, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED EACH TIME THE FUEL TANK WAS FILLED. ON ONE OCCASION, WHILE AT A COMPLETE STOP, THE ENGINE HAD TO BE RESTARTED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 140,000.

AFTER FILLING UP MY 07 JEEP COMPASS NOT EVEN AS I WAS PULLING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT THE JEEP STARTED STUTTERING AND SHUT OFF .. IT HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL I GOT HOME. WHILE ACCELERATING IT WOULD ACT LIKE IT WANTED TO STALL . AND WHILE COMING TO A SHOP IT WOULD CUT OFF. I WAS ALMOST HIT BECAUSE OF THIS . AND I HAD MY DISABLED DAUGHTER IN THE CAR. I HAVE READ MULTIPLE COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS & SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE .

I PURCHASED VEHICLE IN FEB 2018 FOR MY THEN 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. LAST COUPLE OF REFUELS, VEHICLE WILL STALL OUT AFTER LEAVING GAS STATION. SHE LOOSES POWER, STEERING & BRAKING ABILITY WHEN THIS OCCURS. VEHICLE WILL START BACK UP DRIVE ALONG A WHILE THEN STALL OUT AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES THEN WILL OPERATE NORMALLY TILL NEXT FILL-UP.

AFTER FILLING THE TANK WITH GAS, THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF AFTER ABOUT 1/8 OF A MILE. IT WILL JUST STALL OUT AND LOSE STEERING AND LIGHTS.

CAR STALLS AFTER FILLING UP GAS TANK...APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND IS HAPPENING TO MY DAUGHTERS CAR AND SHE WAS ALMOST IN A BAD ACCIDENT DUE TO THE CAR STALLING WHEN PULLING OUT OF A WAWA GAS STATION. THERE IS APPARENTLY A NEED TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK DUE TO A VAPOR LOCK ISSUE WHICH CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF AND IS HAPPENING IN MORE THEN ONE TYPE OF THEIR VEHICLES... THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT IF NOT RECALLED AND THE COMPANY IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE WILL LEAD TO DEATH.

FILLED GAS TANK. AFTERWARDS ENGINE STALLED IN TRAFFIC.

CAR STALLS AFTER FILLING TANK EVERY TIME. RUNS ROUGH THEN STALLS AND POWER STEERING CUTS OUT, LOCKS UP ON THE ROAD. WHEN RESTARTED IT STALLS AGAIN SEVERAL TIMES. VERY DANGEROUS ON THE HIGHWAY IN A HEAVY TRAFFIC.

OUR 2007 JEEP COMPASS HAS BEEN STALLING COMPLETELY (ENGINE SHUTS OFF) SHORTLY AFTER WE FILL UP THE GAS TANK. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN OCCURRING FOR AROUND ONE YEAR. IT HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING OR STOPPED AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, LESS THAN A MILE FROM THE GAS STATION, USUALLY WITHIN A FEW MINUTES OF PUMPING THE GAS. WE FEAR FILLING UP THE TANK TO THE TOP BECAUSE THE CAR HAS STALLED IN LANES OF TRAFFIC. IN THE BETTER CASES, IT STALLS AT A RED LIGHT. THIS IS A DANGEROUS SITUATION. WE WERE ENCOURAGED TO FILE THIS REPORT AFTER CORRESPONDING ONLINE WITH OTHER JEEP OWNERS WHO EXPERIENCED THIS EXACT SAME ISSUE.

CAR STALLS AFTER FILLING TANK ( NOT OVERFILLING ) . RUNS ROUGH THEN STALLS AND POWER STEERING CUTS OUT LOCKS UP ON ROAD.

WHEN I FILL UP THE GAS TANK ON MY 2007 JEEP COMPASS IT STALLS SEVERAL TIMES OVER THE NEXT FEW MILES. I'VE READ THE BLOGS ON THE WEB AND IT APPEARS TO BE A FAILURE OF THE FUEL TANK ROLLOVER VAVLE. THE ONLY FIX APPARENTLY IS TO REPLACE THE GAS TANK AT A COST OF APPROXIMATELY $1,2000. I JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR FOR MY 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER AND IT HAS STOPPED ON HER IN TRAFFIC TWICE AFTER FILLING UP THE TANK. LUCKILY SHE ESCAPED BEING HIT BY AN ONCOMING CAR. THIS IS SO WRONG! THIS IS A DEFECT AND A RECALL NEEDS TO BE ESTABLISHED TO FIX THIS ISSUE.

VEHICLE STALLS OR WILL NOT ACCELERATE, ENGINE RUNS ROUGH, AFTER FILLING UP TANK WITH GASOLINE. PROBLEM GOES AWAY AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES OF DRIVING. CREATES A DANGEROUS AND SAFETY ISSUE. HAPPENS AT EVERY TIME FUEL TANK IS FILLED. THERE SEEMS TO BE MANY SIMILAR COMPLAINTS ON THIS SAME ISSUE. NHTSA SHOULD INVESTIGATE.

THE VEHICLE HAS A PURGE VALVE OR OTHER ISSUE THAT IS VERY COMMON THAT CAUSES THE CAR TO SHUT OFF AFTER FILLING UP GAS. THIS LEADS TO VEHICLES SHUTTING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, LOSING CONTROL OF STEERING AND ACCELERATION AS WELL AS OTHER POWERED THINGS, SINCE THE CAR SHUTS OFF.

K FRAME FRONT AND REAR IS ROTTED. MY CAR WON'T PASS INSPECTION. NEEDS MANIFOLD STYLE CATALYTIC CONVERTER. NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. WON'T PASS INSPECTION. CAR STALLS OUT IN TRAFFIC EVERY TIME WE REFUEL

AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK THIS VEHICLE WILL STALL. THIS HAPPENS ROUTINELY FOLLOWING A FUEL TANK FILL-UP AND IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. THERE ARE MANY CONCERNS ON THE WORLD WIDE WEB OF JEEP COMPASS AND PATRIOT OWNERS EXPERIENCING THE SAME ISSUE WITHOUT RESOLVE. MANY PEOPLE ARE SUGGESTING THAT THE GAS TANK, CHARCOAL FILTER AND ROLL-OVER VALVE NEED TO BE REPLACED TO RESOLVE, WHICH COMES AT A PRICE OF $2000+ PER VEHICLE. THIS NOTIFICATION OF A PROBLEM IS PROACTIVE AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED PRIOR TO BECOMING REACTIVE TO INJURIES OR FATALITIES.

STALLS AFTER FILL UP. WE DO NOT TOP OFF OR OVERFILL THE TANK. EVERYTIME WE FILL THE TANK UP TO THE AUTOMATIC SHUT OFF, THE ENGINE STALLS WITHIN ABOUT 30 SECONDS. GENERALLY, THE ENGINE WILL STALL IF IDLING AT A STOP LIGHT AFTER FILLUP. THE ENGINE DOES NOT STALL IF THE VEHICLE IS RUNNING ABOVE 25-30 MILES PER HOUR. THE ENGINE STARTS RIGHT BACK UP WITHOUT PROBLEM, BUT WILL CONTINUE TO STALL. AFTER VEHICLE HAS BEEN DRIVEN A FEW MILES, THE STALLING ISSUE DISAPPEARS ENTIRELY.

WHEN I PUT GAS IN THE CAR THE FIRST 20 MINTUES THE CAR TURNS OFF WHEN IN MOTION ON ANY STREET BUT ONLY IN THOSE 20 MINTUES. AFTER THE 20 MINTUES THE CAR IS FINE AND IT SAYS IT HAS NO ERRORS AND IT DOESN'T TURN OFF.

THIS VEHICLE STALLS AFTER FILLING UP TANK, YOU FILL THE TANK AND A COUPLE MILES DOWN THE ROAD IT WILL STALL, THEN IT IS GOOD UNTIL NEXT FILL UP. THIS IS MY WIFES CAR AND IM AFRAID FOR HER SINCE SHE TAKES THE EXPRESS WAY ALL THE TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER REFUELING, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CANISTER PURGE VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,555.

WHEN FILLED UP WITH FUEL, CAR STALLS OUT AND CUTS OFF. I HAVE REPLACED ALL OF THE BEARINGS AND CAR STILL MAKES A ROARING NOISE WITH THE AXLE. UPPER CONTROL ARMS ARE COMPLETELY DAMAGED. BATTERY LIGHT CONTINUES TO COME ON AND HEADLIGHT WAS REPLACED BUT DOES NOT STAY ON. LIGHT STAYS ON INDICATING VACUUM HOSE ISSUE. 4 WHEEL DRIVE LIGHT STAYS ON.

AFTER REFUELING THE CAR LOOSES POWER AND STALLS. LAST WEEK I REFILLED THE CAR AND I STALLED IN TRAFFIC. WHEN IN STALL SITUATION DRIVERS NEED TO BE AWARE THAT STEERING IS DIFFICULT. I THINK THE STALLING IS CAUSED BY FUEL GETTING INTO THE EVAPORATOR CANISTER

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE FAILURE ONLY OCCURRED AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 82,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT IT TOOK AN UNUSUALLY LONG TIME TO FILL UP THE VEHICLE WITH FUEL. THE FAILURE RECURRED ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS.

I PURCHASED THE 2007 JEEP WITH LOW MILEAGE FOR MY CHILD'S FIRST CAR. UPON THE FIRST REFUEL THE CAR HAS EXPERIENCED STALLING WITHIN A HAL MILE OF REFUELING. THE CAR WAS RETURNED TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES, AS WELL AS TO THE NEIGHBORNING JEEP DEALER. TIME AFTER TIME I WAS ADVISED THE ISSUE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. TODAY UPON REFUELING THE CAR STALLED UPON LEAVING THE GAS STATION AGAIN. THERE APPEARS TO BE A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT OF COMPLAINTS AND RESEARCH ONLINE THAT I WAS SHOCKED TO LEARN A RECALL HAD NOT BEEN ISSUED FOR THIS EXTREME SAFETY ISSUE. THE STALLING OCCURS AT A DIFFERENT TIME LEAVING NO GAS STATION, AT THE FIRST MOMENT OF IDLING, AFTER TRAVELING A SHORT DISTANCE. THIS IS A SAFETY CONCERN FOR ANY DRIVER ALTHOUGH EXTREMELY SO FOR A NEWLY LICENSED DRIVER.

GAS TANK WILL NOT TAKE FUEL. WHEN FILLING IT WILL ONLY TAKE ABOUT 0.3 GALLONS BEFORE STOPPING OR SPRAYING OUT. MECHANIC SAID IT MIGHT BE VENTILATION SYSTEM.

I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING A PROBLEM WITH MY CAR CUTTING OFF, ESPECIALLY WHILE STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT MORE OFTEN THAN NOT ON LOCAL ROADWAYS. IF IT DOESN'T COMPLETELY SHUT OFF THE SENSATION TO CUT OFF IS DEFINITELY FELT. I ORIGINALLY THOUGHT IT WAS THE SPARK PLUGS AND HAD THOSE REPLACED, HOWEVER, THE SITUATION CONTINUES TO PERSIST. I HAVE BEEN TOLD ON ONE OR MORE OCCASIONS IT MAY BE THE FUEL PUMP. I WAS RECOMMENDED I TAKE MY VEHICLE DIRECTLY TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE OTHER ISSUE THAT IS ALSO VERY PRONOUNCED IS THE NOISE MY ENGINE MAKES WHILE IDLING. IT CAN BEST DESCRIBED AS A LOUD WHIRLING SOUND BUT NOT QUITE A RATTLE. I HAVE NEVER HEARD MY CAR SOUND SO NOISY. I HAVE NOTICED PERHAPS IN THE LAST 6 MONTHS THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS COME ON INVOLUNTARILY WITHOUT ME ENGAGING THEIR USE. I HAVE SEARCHED JEEP'S WEBSITE REGARDING ANY RECALL...

AFTER FILLING UP VEHICLE IT STALLS OUT WITHIN TWO MILES IT HAPPENS AFTER EVERY FILL UP.

THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO A DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE FUEL CAP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED, THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM NEEDED TO BE FLUSHED AND A TUNE UP WAS NEEDED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION HESITATED TO SHIFT GEARS AND WAS JERKING AS IF IT WAS GOING TO STALL. THE TRANSMISSION WAS REPLACED ON 6/30/13. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE OXYGEN SENSORS AND THE O2 HARNESS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED....

WHEN FILLING THE GAS TANK VIA GAS PUMP AUTO SHUT OFF, THE CAR WILL STALL. THIS HAS HAPPENED THE LAST TWO FILL UPS. THE CAR HAS 92389 MILES ON IT. THE FIRST TIME, IT STALLED AFTER STARTING THEN AGAIN AFTER ENTERING HIGHWAY GOING UP HILL WITH LOADED DUMP TRUCK RIGHT BEHIND ME. HE BARELY MISSED HITTING ME FROM BEHIND. PLUS CAR LOOSES POWER STEERING. 2ND TIME THIS HAPPENED WAS NEXT TANK FILL UP AND STALLED BEFORE LEAVING GAS STATION. AFRAID TO DRIVE AND HAVE PARKED CAR. ROLL OVER VALVE IS NOT WORKING (STUCK OPEN?). IF CAR WAS IN ROLL OVER ACCIDENT, FIRE COULD RESULT FROM SPILLING FUEL. AFRAID WHAT MIGHT HAPPEN IF PULLING ONTO HIGHWAY FROM RAMP AND STALL IN FRONT OF 18 WHEELER.

SHORTLY AFTER REFUELING THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE STALLS AND UPON RESTART RUNS ROUGH FOR SHORT TIME. WE HAD ONE INCIDENT WHERE A FUEL LEAK DEVELOPED AFTER REFUELING. THE STALLING ISSUE HAS ALMOST CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO BE STRUCK AND CLEARLY HAS CAUSED A CONTROL ISSUE WHEN THE VEHICLES ENGINE LOSES POWER SHUTS DOWN. THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN CHECKED AND NO CODES WERE TRIGGERED OR STORED. THE MANUFACTURER DOESN'T SEEM INTERESTED IN ADDRESSING MY ISSUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE REJECTS FUEL. THE FAILURE RECURRED NUMEROUS TIMES.

AFTER REFUELING, VEHICLE STARTS UP AND DRIVES AS NORMAL FOR A SHORT TIME UNTIL REACHING THE FIRST STOP OR STOPLIGHT, AT WHICH POINT THE ENGINE RETURNS TO IDLE. THE ENGINE WILL BEGIN TO SPUTTER/WEAKEN (FULL FOOT ON THE GAS BUT REACTS AS IF IT IS ONLY DOWN 1/4 OF THE WAY), THE OIL LIGHT TURNS ON, AND THEN SUBSEQUENTLY DIES WHILE STILL IN DRIVE. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 5 TIMES SINCE THIS FIRST OCCURRED ON JAN. 31, 2015. EVERY TIME IT OCCURS, IT IS IMMEDIATELY AFTER REFUELING, DESPITE USING DIFFERENT GAS STATIONS AND BRANDS. FIRST EVEN OCCURRED WHILE I WAS TURNING LEFT FROM A LIGHT INTO ANOTHER PARKING LOT. (SPUTTER, THEN DIED) ANOTHER EVENT WAS WHILE I WAS IDLING AT A RED LIGHT. (ENGINE COMPLETELY DIED) THE MOST RECENT EVENT OCCURRED WHILE I WAS DRIVING 45 MPH DOWN THE ROAD, AND IT BEGAN TO SPUTTER AND WEAKEN AFTER THEN...

WHILE DRIVING ON I-30 AT 70 MPH, MY JEEP JUST DIED. NO WARNING SIGN OF ANY KIND, JUST COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN, WHICH ALMOST CAUSED SEVERAL WRECKS. I GOT TO THE MEDIAN, WAITED ABOUT 10 MINUTES, IT STARTED AND I DROVE ABOUT 20 MORE MILES, THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT A MONTH, TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS PUT ON THE COMPUTER, COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. I HAD HIM (MECHANIC) KEEP IT TILL IT HAPPENED TO HIM. FINALLY IT DID, TOOK THE FUEL PUMP OFF AND THE PLUG WAS MELTED, AS WELL AS MELTED A HOLE IN THE FUEL PUMP. HE STATED HE IS SURPRISED WE DIDN'T BLOW UP. I PLAN ON TAKING THE BURNED PLUG & PUMP TO THE DODGE HOUSE ON MONDAY, VERY DANGEROUS VEHICLE! *TR

WE BOUGHT OUR JEEP COMPASS IN JANUARY 2007. APPROX. DATE FOR THIS PROBLEM IS SEPT 2011. OUR JEEP STARTED ACTING LIKE IT WAS GOING TO STALL WHEN STOPPED AT A LIGHT OR WHEN IN MOTION. AT OTHER TIMES, IT WOULDN'T START AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS. MOST TIMES IT WOULD START. ONE DAY IT DID NOT START AT ALL AND WE DECIDED TO TAKE IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP THE NEXT DAY. THAT MORNING, IT STARTED, BUT WE STILL TOOK IT IN. THE ENGINE LIGHT WAS ON ALSO. WE TOLD THEM WE THINK ITS THE BATTERY BECAUSE WE HAD ISSUES WITH THAT ALREADY (BATTERY REPLACED IN 2010 AND AGAIN IN, I THINK, 2011, SOMETHING IN THE JEEP WAS DRAINING THE BATTERY). LONG BEACH CA DEALERSHIP. I THINK THEY CHARGED US A FEE TO HOOK IT UP TO THE COMPUTER, THEY COULD NOT FIND THE PROBLEM, AND SAID IT WAS NOT THE BATTERY....
