2016 JEEP PATRIOT Engine Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP PATRIOT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING, WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO HARRY BLACKWELL DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (1660 W BUSINESS U.S. 60, DEXTER, MO 63841) AND WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TOTALLY INTEGRATED POWER MODULE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEALER PREVIOUSLY COMPLETED AN UPDATE DUE TO THE SAME FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VIN WAS NOT UNDER A RECALL AND THAT THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY WAS NOT COVERED. ADDITIONALLY, THE REGULAR WARRANTY WAS EXPIRED. THE CONTACT WAS REFERRED TO NHTSA. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 35,000.

THE UNSEALED MAIN RELAY BOX IS POSITIONED DIRECTLY BELOW THE LEAD-ACID BATTERY WHICH LEAKS DIRECTLY ONTO THE COVER, ENTERS THE RELAY BOX AND DESTROYS THE LEG AND WIRING CONNECTED TO THE AUTOMATIC SHUTDOWN RELAY. THIS CAN OCCUR BOTH AS THE VEHICLE IS OPERATING OR CAUSE A NO-CRANK/NO-START SITUATION, IMMOBILIZING THE VEHICLE. IN OUR CASE, THE FIRST TIME IT OCCURRED WAS IN A PARKING LOT BUT THE ISSUE IS WELL DOCUMENTED ON THE INTERNET AND THERE ARE MYRIAD YOUTUBE VIDEOS ON THE ISSUE FOR MANY JEEP AND FCA VEHICLES. THIS IS ENOUGH OF A KNOWN ISSUE THAT FCA HAS NOT ADDRESSED FOR MANY YEARS NOW AND WE JUST PAID $460.00 FOR THE DEALER TO MOVE THE AFFECTED RELAY FROM THE BOX TO A LESS VULNERABLE LOCATION. IT OCCURRED A FEW TIMES BEFORE THE WIRING FAILED COMPLETELY, AND IN OUR CASE WAS IN A STATIONARY CONDITION EACH TIME FORTUNATELY.

MY MALFUNCTIONING JEEP PATRIOT EXPERIENCED SUDDEN UNEXPECTED ACCELERATION WHICH RESULTED IN A TOTALED CAR, 2 DAMAGED BUILDINGS, AND A FCA LETTER STONEWALLING AND WASHING THEIR HANDS OF. THIS ACCIDENT CAME WITHIN A WHISKER OF TAKING OUR LIVES. ACCIDENT HAPPENED AS I DESCENDED OUR DRIVEWAY TO OUR HOUSE. DEEP SKID TIRE MARKS IN GRAVEL THEY CHOSE TO IGNORE. THEIR "INVESTIGATION" WAS VERY VERY SHALLOW. I HAVE A DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF ALL THAT HAPPENED THAT DAY AND POLICE REPORT WHICH I CAN FAX TO YOU. I AM A VERY ANGRY AND FRUSTRATED VETERAN I NEED YOU. THANKS.*DT*DT*JP*DT*JB*JB

VEHICLE IS STALLING WITHOUT WARNING AT LOW OR HIGH SPEEDS, WITH LOSS OF BRAKE ASSIST AND STEERING ASSIST. MULTIPLE VISITS TO DEALER HAVE NOT SOLVED THE PROBLEM AS DEALER CLAIMS HE CAN NOT DUPLICATE. IN SEVERAL OF THE STALLING INCIDENTS, A CRITICALLY HAZARDOUS CONDITION WAS CREATED. STALL HAS OCCURRED BOTH IN STRAIGHT LINE TRAVEL AND IN TURNS AT INTERSECTIONS.

IT STARTED ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IT STARTED JERKING LIKE IT WAS BETWEEN GEARS . TOOK TO DEALERSHIP SEVERAL TIMES JUST TO BE TOLD THEY COULDN'T FIND NOTHING. I TOLD THEM SOMETHING WAS WRONG AND ITS SO BAD WHEN IT HAPPENS VEHICLE STALLS AND ALMOST DIES. I HAVE CALLED JEEP AND THEY DO NOTHING BUT BLAME IT ON A RECALL THAT HAS BEEN DONE ALREADY. IT HAS GOTTEN SO BAD I BOUGHT MY WIFE ANOTHER VEHICLE AND I'M DRIVING IT DO TO MY SAFETY CONCERNS.

VEHICLE STALLS WHILE DRIVING AT HIGH SPEED OR AT LOW SPEED AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON WITH CODE P0335.

WHEN DRIVING OVER 30-35 MPH THE VEHICAL STRUGGLES TO ACCELERATE AND DOWN SHIFTS ITSELF TO LOWER GEERS NOT ALLOWING THE VEHICALE TO GO. EVEN PUSHING IN THE GAS PEDAL DOESN'T WORK TO BRING THE VEHICALE BACK UP TO SPEED. ENGINE LIGHT IS ON 2 LIGHTENING STRICK LIGHTS APPEARS TREAD LIGHT COMES ON CODE U1407(1/4) STORED AC NOR HEATER NURT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP PATRIOT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AUTOZONE AND WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER FAILED AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FAILURE AFFECTED THE FUEL MILEAGE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 88,000.

WHEN I'M DRIVING AND LET OFF THE GAS TO COAST, GO AROUND CURVES, OR UPHILL;, MY JEEP SEEMS TO CUTOUT, SKIP, OR PUTTER AS I ACCELERATE AGAIN. IT SEEMS LIKE IT IS GOING TO DIE. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME NOTHING IS WRONG WITH IT. IT IS ONLY GETTING WORSE. AND OF COURSE I WAS 3,000 MILES OVER MY WARRANTY WHEN IT STATED HAPPENING.

WHEN DRIVING THE ENGINE SEEMS TO SPUTTER, STALL, JERK, REV THE RPM AT RANDOM WHEN DRIVING. IT HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 70 OR IN A NEIGHBORHOOD GOING 25 WHILE DRIVING OR STARTING TO GO FROM A STOP. IT WILL JERK REALLY HARD LIKE IT IS GOING TO STALL OUT BUT NO LIGHTS COME ON THE DASH TO INDICATE SOMETHING IS WRONG AND I HAVE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP MANY TIMES AND THEY TELL ME IT IS NORMAL, I'VE NEVER HAD ANY VEHICLE BEHAVE THIS WAY EXCEPT WHEN I WAS 15 LEARNING HOW TO DRIVE A MANUAL TRANSMISSION AND THAT WASN'T THE FAULT OF THE VEHICLE. IT ALSO WILL WHILE IN PARK RANDOMLY REV THE RPMS WHEN NOTHING IS BEING USED IN THE VEHICLE, IF I THEN PUT IT IN DRIVE AND BACK TO PARK IT USUALLY SETTLES DOWN BUT NOT ALWAYS, SOMETIMES I HAVE TO SHUT IT OFF...

IN JULY 2020, I WAS DRIVING, AND MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. WENT TO JEEP, IN RENO, NV, WHICH DIAGNOSED IT AS A CAMSHAFT SENSOR ERROR; IT WOULD NEED TO BE REPAIRED BUT NOT CRITICAL. TECH RESET SENSOR, AND SAID IF IT COMES ON AGAIN, WE SHOULD SET A DATE FOR REPAIR. ON SEPT 3, 6:40PM, DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, COMING OUT OF AN INTERCHANGE, MY CAR SHUT DOWN! EVERYTHING. LUCKILY, CLOSE ENOUGH, I COASTED OFF TO THE RIGHT AND TOOK THE FIRST EXIT, BRAKED HARD, AND CAME TO STOP. COULDN'T RESTART. ORDERED A TOW. TEN MIN LATER, TRIED AGAIN, THE CAR STARTED, AND DROVE IT 3 MILES HOME @ 25 MPH. HIT 30MPH, IT KINDA 'CHUNKED', AND I WENT BACK TO 24-25MPH. SEPT 4, I TOOK TO LITHIA JEEP, AGAIN. LEFT IT WITH THEM. THEY CALLED ME LATER, AND SAID IT WAS THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR, AND WOULD NEED TO...

DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD MY JEEP WILL JUST STALL AND PUT ME IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. NO WARNINGS WITH ANY DASH LIGHTS.

SAME ISSUE AS RECALL S89/16V907000. STALLS RANDOMLY AND POWER NOT DELIVERED TO ENGINE PROPERLY. MAJOR SAFETY ISSUE FOR OUR FAMILY.

WHILE DRIVING G ENGINE STALLS AND CAN NOT ACCELERATE, RED LIGHT W LIGHT BOLT FLASHES WHILE CAR STALLS, USUALLY FOR 10 SECONDS, THEN RECOVERS. IT HAPPENS MORE AND MORE OFTEN. HAPPENS ON BOTH FREEWAY AND STREET DRIVING, 60MPH AND 35MPH FIRST TIME HAPPENED ABOUT THREE WEEKS AGO

THE VEHICLE STALLED SITTING STILL. WHEN I CRANKED THE JEEP IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. AS I TURNED THE IGNITION KEY IT JUST KEPT ON CRANKING WITH OUT ME HOLDING THE KEY.

WHEN STARTING THE VEHICLE THERE IS A DELAY IN STARTING THEN WHEN WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD THE VEHICLE JERKS OR STALLS LIKE IT IS GOING TO DIE. ACCELERATION AND DECELERATION DO NOT SEEM TO MAKE IT STOP OR FIX THE ISSUE. OCCASIONALLY WHEN GOING UP HILL THE VEHICLE WILL HIT 4RPM LIKE IT IS UNABLE TO SHIFT AND NEITHER ACCELERATION OR DECELERATION FIX THE ISSUE EVEN AFTER THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER CLIMBING THE HILL. THERE ARE NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHTS ON AND NO CODES TO BE READ. I HAVE TRIED GAS TREATMENT AND TAKEN IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND 2 MECHANICS AND NO ONE KNOWS WHY IT IS DOING IT OR HOW TO STOP IT.

I WAS COMING OUT OF A STOP GETTING READY TO GET INTO THE TURNING LANE FOR THE INTERSTATE RAMP AND WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS THE CAR BARELY MOVED BUT THE RPM SHOT UP AND WAS REVVING. CAME TO A FULL STOP AND PUT CAR IN PARK AND IT MADE A VERY LOUD NOISE. PUT BACK IN DRIVE AND SEEMED TO BE NORMAL.

MY VEHICLE OUT OF NOWHERE NO LIGHTS OR WARNINGS CAME ON IT SIMPLY SHUT OFF NO POWER COULDN'T EVEN UNLOCK MY DOORS. WAS UNABLE TO START AGAIN. I JUMPED IT AND IT STARTED WITHIN 10SECONDS OF DRIVING IT I THOUGHT IT DIED AGAIN AND REALIZED WAS STILL RUNNING BUT IT WAS LIKE I WAS NOT PRESSING THE GAS RPMS WERE UP BUT NO SPEED WHEN I PUT IN PARK VEHICLE MOTOR SEEMED TO BE STRUGGLING AND MY CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. LUCKILY ALL OF THIS HAPPENED WHILE ON A SMALL ROAD . GOT IT HOME SPOKE TO MECHANIC HE INFORMED ME OF RECALL S89 AND IMMEDIATELY SAID IT WAS ELECTRICAL OR COMPUTER POSSIBLY I REACHED OUT TO CHRYSLER AND THEY INSTRUCTED ME TO TAKE TO DEALERSHIP TO SUBMIT MY VIN FOR RECALL I CONTACTED DEALERSHIP THEY ESSENTIALLY TOLD ME NO WE DON'T DO THAT. THIS WAS OUT OF NOWHERE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP PATRIOT. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS THE VEHICLE WAS MANUALLY PUSHED OR COASTED OUT OF THE ROADWAY. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AFTER SITTING FOR APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES, THE VEHICLE WOULD RESTART. THE FAILURE WAS INTERMITTENT. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. AN AUTHORIZED DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 65,000.

WHILE DRIVING THE ENGINE STALLS, ESSENTIALLY CUTTING MY POWER STEERING AND HAVE LITTLE CONTROL OVER VEHICLE. HAPPENS ON FREEWAY AND IN CITY STREETS AND STOP LIGHTS

THE CAR STALLS WHILE DRIVING IT DOWN THE ROAD AT MORE THEN 20MPH AND IT'S VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IT DOES IT WITH NO LIGHT OR ANY INDICATION THAT SOMETHING IS WRONG. I BELIEVE IT'S COMPLETELY ELECTRICAL BUT I'M TAKING IT IN TO THE MECHANICS TOMORROW. I WAS DRIVING DOWN A HIGHWAY WHEN IT STALLED ON ME THANKFULLY I WAS ON THE SLOW LANE AND WAS ABLE TO PULL TO THE SIDE BUT NOT BEFORE SOMEONE ALMOST REAR ENDING ME.

AT THE FIRST INSTANCE OF THE ENGINE STALLING, THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION, BUT SLOWING TO STOP AT A RED LIGHT. THE NEXT INSTANCE OF THE VEHICLE STALLING, IT WAS STOPPED. THE ENGINE SHUT DOWN, BUT TRIED TO RESTART ON ITS OWN. AFTER RESETTING THE IGNITION KEY, AND WAITING ABOUT 3 MINUTES, THE VEHICLE STARTED...AND REMAINED IN A RUNNING STATE UNTIL WE ARRIVED AT HOME. THE NEXT TIME THE VEHICLE WAS USED, IT WAS STARTED VIA THE KEY FOB. IT STARTED, AND WITHIN 15 SECONDS, THE CAR SHUT DOWN. LATER THAT DAY, WE TOOK IT TO A VALVOLINE OIL CHANGE FACILITY, WHERE THEY CHECKED FOR ENGINE CODES VIA THE OBD PORT. AND ERROR OF "CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR" WAS NOTED. LATER THAT DAY, WHILE PULLING IN TO A PARKING LOT, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND ATTEMPTED A RESTART ON ITS OWN. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES, THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED. WHILE DRIVING ON THE...

REPLACED THE THROTTLE BODY AS VEHICLE LOST POWER. MECHANIC SAID HE HAS REPLACED OVER 10-12 OF THEM RECENTLY AND THERE WILL PROBABLY A RECALL. PART AND LABOR WAS $500. MY GRANDDAUGHTER IS IN COLLEGE AND WE PURCHASED VEHICLE AS IT WAS SUPPOSEDLY DEPENDABLE TRANSPORTATION. SHE WAS ABLE TO PULL INTO A PARKING LOT BEFORE THE VEHICLE LOST POWER. *TR

WHEN ACCELERATING MY ENGINE SEEMS TO BOG DOWN AND STALL VERY FREQUENTLY. THIS HAD ALMOST CAUSED WHAT COULD OF BEEN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT. ONCE I WAS TURNING IN A 4 WAY INTERSECTION AND IT STALLED WHEN CAR YIELDING TO ME WAS APPROACHING ME IN INTERSECTION ALMOST CAUSING A T BONE TYPE CRASH AND THE OTHER TIMES WAS ON THE HIGHWAY WHILE ACCELERATING THE ENGINE STALLED EACH TIME CAUSING WHAT COULD OF POTENTIALLY BEEN A LIFE THREATENING ACCIDENT. I WAS EXTREMELY CLOSE TO BEING HIT BY A SEMI ONCE, A TRUCK PULLING A TRAILER ONCE AND MULTIPLE CARS ON DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. *TR

2016 JEEP PATRIOT WITH 38K MILES WILL RANDOMLY QUIT ACCELERATING WHICH CAUSES LOSS OF POWER, STEERING CONTROL, ETC. THE RED LIGHTNING BOLT (ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL) WILL INTERMITTENTLY COME ON AND FLASH. DIAGNOSED AT LOCAL JEEP DEALERSHIP WHO SAID THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDS REPLACING AT A COST OF $1000 AND IS NOT COVERED UNDER ANY JEEP WARRANTY - WHETHER THE BASIC OR THE EXTENDED THAT COVERS EMISSION SYSTEMS. *TR

VEHICLE LOSES POWER AND/OR STALLS WHILE DRIVING, EVEN AT HIGH SPEEDS. VEHICLE STALLED SEVERAL TIMES WHEN STOPPED. I HAD TO LET CAR SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES BEFORE IT WOULD RESTART. LOST ACCELERATION AT LOW SPEEDS, ESPECIALLY AFTER TURNING A CORNER AND BEGINNING TO ACCELERATE. YOU PRESS ON THE GAS AND NOTHING HAPPENS. THIS ALSO HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 60MPH. LUCKILY IT KICKED BACK IN. THERE IS A RECALL ON THE SAME YEAR PATRIOT S89 FOR THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR, WHICH WAS THE EXACT PROBLEM ON MY PATRIOT. I INFORMED THE DEALER OF THIS RECALL WHEN I TOOK THE CAR IN FOR SERVICE. HE SAID IT WASN'T APPLICABLE TO MY VEHICLE AND WOULDN'T KEEP THE PAPERWORK I GAVE HIM FOR THE RECALL. THE DEALER, HOWEVER, TOLD ME IT WAS THE ABS SYSTEM AND CHARGED ME TO REPLACE IT AND THEN ENDED UP REPLACING THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR AFTER THE...

DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT HIGHWAY SPEED THE RED LIGHTNING BOLT WARNING LIGHT CAME ON, AS DID THE CHECK ENGINE AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHTS AND THE ACCELERATOR CUT OUT. I WAS ABLE TO COAST ACROSS 3 LANES TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, BUT THIS HAS HAPPENED THREE TIMES AND APPARENTLY MY 2016 PATRIOT WASN'T INCLUDED IN THE RECALL THAT ADDRESSED THIS ISSUE.

WHILE DRIVING HOME FROM WORK ON THE INTERSTATE YESTERDAY AT ABOUT 60MPH, MY JEEP SUDDENLY LOSS POWER AND STARTED SHAKING. IT WOULDN'T ACCELERATE AT ALL. I HAD TO QUICKLY PUT MY FLASHERS ON AS TO NOT CAUSE AN ACCIDENT WHILE I TRIED TO PULL INTO THE EMERGENCY SHOULDER. I TURNED THE CAR OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN RESTARTED IT TO DRIVE HOME.

WE DIDN?T THINK TOO MUCH OF IT UNTIL A FRIEND OF OURS TRANSMISSION JUST SHUT DOWN ON HERS AND SHE HAD THE SAME ISSUE WITH HER 2014 JEEP PATRIOT.

VEHICLE CONSTANTLY STALLS WHILE DRIVING. EVEN HAPPENS WHEN I'M DRIVING ON INTERSTE AND SPEEDS OF 70 MPH. VEHICLE EVENTUALLY STARTS BACK UP BUT THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. HAD THE CODES RAN AND CAME BACK WITH AN ISSUE WITH THE CRANKSHAFT POSITIONING SENSOR.

AUTOMATIC JEEP, HAS DIFFICULTY SHIFTING BETWEEN GEARS WHEN ACCELERATING. THIS IS ESPECIALLY NOTICEABLE WHEN GOING A SLOWER SPEED (I.E. TURNING A CORNER, IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC WITH STOP-AND-GO SPEEDS), BUT DOES DO IT AT HIGHER SPEEDS (EX. 60 MPH TO 70 MPH). IT DOES NOT SEEM TO HAVE ISSUES WHEN DOWN SHIFTING. THE VEHICLE HAS A VERY NOTICEABLE LURCH/SHUTTER WHEN IT IS ATTEMPTING TO SHIFT TO A HIGHER GEAR AND WILL DO IT REPEATEDLY IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THE VEHICLE NEEDS TO BE DRIVEN A WHILE BEFORE IT WILL OCCUR, I DRIVE IT ABOUT 20 MILES BEFORE IT STARTS EXHIBITING THE ISSUE. THE ISSUE IS MOST FRIGHTENING IN CITY/RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC BECAUSE IT SEEMS LIKE THE VEHICLE MIGHT STOP RUNNING ALL TOGETHER. THE VEHICLE ALSO SEEMS TO STRUGGLE TO MAKE IT UP HILLS, AS IF IT DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH POWER TO MAKE THE CLIMB OF EVEN A...

BOUGHT JEEP IN 2018 SINCE THEN IT HAS HAD INTERMITTENT CRUISE CONTROL PROBLEMS. SOMETIMES IT WORKS SOMETIMES IT DONT. SOMETIMES IT WORKS THEN QUITS WORKING.
