Jeep runs bad with gas

My 2003 Jeep Grand Cherokee runs great until I go to certain gas stations
and put gas in my car. I went to Speedway once and my Jeep shook and
buckled so bad and the engine light comes on until I ran out the gas and it was fine. Yesterday I got gas at Dominick's (I got gas there many times
before) and its doing the same thing. It runs terrible and its shaking so bad, it shakes when I accelerate and when I'm at a red light I'm scared its
going to stall out and the check engine light keeps flashing. I don't want to drive it but I know I have to run out that gas. My husband tells me to just go to Amoco gas stations, but when I need gas, I need to go to the nearest one. A normal car should not be doing this. Why is my Jeep real picky about the gas? I bought it used. Help!

Hello guzigirl
my jeep started doing the same thing as you described. The engine light flashes, it has loss of power and shakes violently. Did you by any chance figure out what your problem was? I know it could be a number of things and hate to pay someone to start at one end when they know it's at the other. Please reply.
