NHTSA Complaint #11321580 — 2015 JEEP PATRIOT

THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY STARTED DROPPING TO 0 RPM DURING DIFFERENT SPEEDS AND SITUATIONS (SOME 30MPH, SOME 60MPH, SOME TURNING, SOME GOING STRAIGHT, BUT NEVER STALLED WHILE STOPPED) ON AND OFF FOR A WEEK WITH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT OR FAULT CODES PRESENT. DRIVING ON THE FREEWAY 8 MONTHS PREGNANT GOING 65MPH THE JEEP STALLED OUT AND THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. IT SHOWED UP AS A CRANKSHAFT SENSOR FAULT, WE REPLACED THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR AND NOW IT IS STUCK IN TIP START MODE AND WILL NOT START! THIS IS THE 3RD BRAND SENSOR THAT HAS BEEN TRIED. THIS IS VERY SIMILAR TO THE 2016 RECALL ISSUE (SAFETY RECALL S89 / NHTSA 16V-907 CRANKSHAFT CAMSHAFT SENSOR WIRE HARNESS) THERE HAVE BEEN NUMEROUS SAFETY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE 2015 JEEP PATRIOT HAVING REOCCURRING SIMILAR ISSUES AND NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE. THIS IS A 1 OWNER PURCHASED BRAND NEW VEHICLE THAT HAS BEEN CARED FOR PROPERLY AND HAS HAD MORE ISSUES THAN A 5 YEAR OLD VEHICLE SHOULD. STALLING OUT AT 65MPH ON THE FREEWAY WHILE 8 MONTHS PREGNANT COULD OF KILLED ME AND MY UNBORN CHILD. THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE IT'S TOO LATE.
