NHTSA Complaint #11595071 — 2016 JEEP PATRIOT

Incident One: 2016 Jeep Patriot stalled at 45 miles per hour. Dealership said crankshaft position sensor was defective and needed to be replaced for $550. They said there was a Recall date 2016-12-15, Recall no.16V907000 Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain model year 2016 Dodge Journey, Jeep Compass, and Jeep Patriot vehicles manufactured May 9, 2016, to July 15, 2016. The crankshaft or camshaft sensor may only work intermittently, causing the engine to stall, but that it didn't apply to my Jeep's VIN, even though same year, make and model and same issue. Paid $550 to have repaired. Incident Two: 2015 Jeep Patriot stalled at 45 miles per hour on highway in rush hour traffic. Red TPS lightning bolt, yellow TCS warning, and red Check Engine lights came on as Jeep stalled. Dealership advised that Throttle Position Sensor had failed, and as it is integrated with the Throttle Body assembly, that the entire Throttle Body assembly needed to be replaced for $800. Dealership also advised that there was a recall for this issue for 2016 Jeep Patriots like mine, but that it didn't apply to my Jeep's VIN. Almost crashed both times with passengers, none of whom were pleased. Why don't these two recalls include my vehicle, when it is the same two issues recalled for other 2016 Jeep Patriots??
