EACH TIME THE VEHICLE HAD BEEN ON THE ROAD FOR TWO HOURS OR MORE PRIOR TO BECOMING DISABLED AND REQUIRED A TOW FROM THE HIGHWAY. EACH TIME THE VEHICLE HAD BETWEEN 1/8TH AND 3/8THS OF A TANK OF FUEL. WHEN THE PATRIOT WAS UNLOADED FROM THE FLAT BED TOW TRUCK, IT STARTED IMMEDIATELY ON EACH OCCASION AND THE CHRYSLER REPAIR SHOPS COULD NOT FIND A CODE THAT INDICATED THE VEHICLE EXPERIENCED ANY PROBLEM. THE DEALERS SAID BECAUSE THERE WERE NO DIAGNOSTIC CODES, THEY WOULD NOT FIX ANYTHING. PLEASE HELP ME RESOLVE THE ISSUE. I WILL GIVE YOU ANY HELP I CAN.
