Consumer Description

WE PURCHASED A USED JEEP PATRIOT 2008 AND WITHIN A FEW MONTHS HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE STABILITY LIGHTS COMING ON WHEN WE SLOWED FROM HIGHWAY AND CAR NEEDING TO BE RESTARTED TO REGAIN POWER. THE TRANSMISSION KEPT DOING A WEIRD KICKBACK. THE VEHICLE WAS CHECKED ON THE COMPUTER REPEATEDLY AND DID NOT SHOW A CODE. ALSO ,THE OIL CHANGE LIGHT KEPT COMING ON EVEN AFTER OIL CHANGED. WE REPLACED ARMS , BEARINGS, STILL ISSUE NOT CORRECTED .( THE BEARING REPLACED TWICE BY DEALERSHIP A YEAR AGO IS STILL MAKING LOUD NOISES.) RECENTLY THE KICKBACK IS INCREASING AND THE DEALERSHIP HAS ADVISED US WE NEED AN ENTIRE NEW TRANSMISSION. THIS IS A 2008!!!!! 5 YEARS OLD!!! THERE WAS A RECALL ON SOME 2008 PATRIOTS , BUT I AM BEING ADVISED NOT OURS AND SO FAR CHRYSLER IS REFUSING TO DO ANYTHING FOR US ON THE TRANSMISSION. *TR
