BOTH WHILE DRIVING, AND WHILE SITTING . VEHICLE EXPERIENCED MANY ELECTRICAL PROBLEMS DUE TO SLOW TIPM FAILURE. OVER THE COURSE OF SIX MONTHS. COUNTLESS HOURS AND LOTS OF MONEY ON DIAGNOSTICS. AND FIXING INDIVIDUAL COMPONENTS FOR THE PROBLEMS THAT WERE HAPPENING. CAR WAS HESITATING, BUCKING, AND SPORADIC IDLE. ALSO RADIO AND BLUETOOTH CONNECTABILITY STARTED TO GLITCH. CERTAIN LIGHTS WOULD NOT WORK. ALL OF THESE PROBLEMS WERE HANDLED INDIVIDUALLY FOR THE COMPONENTS THAT NORMALLY MAKES THEM HAPPEN. ONLY TEMPORARILY FIXING THE PROBLEM.

FRONT SEATBELTS WILL JUST UNBUCKLE AFTER YOU'VE BUCKLED. THE JEEP WONT ACCELERATE, IT WONT SHIFT UNTIL 3 1/2 GRAND, BETWEEN 0-40 MPH IT CHUGS & ALMOST DIES, ONCE ABOVE 40 ITS USUALLY FINE. THE DEALER SAYS THINGS ARE FINE. WHAT IS WRONG AND WHY WONT THESE ISSUES COME UP ON DIAGNOSTICS? THE TIRE LOW SENSOR IS ALWAYS ON - EVEN AFTER NEW TIRES & THEY RESET IT. NO WONDER THE WARRANTY LENGTH WAS LOWERED. BRAKES BECAME SQEAKY AROUND 6 MONTHS. ONE OWNER - ME UNFORTUNATELY.

THEY RANDOMLY UNBUCKLE! YOU THINK YOU'RE BUCKLED AND YOU MOVE OR ADJUST WHILE DRIVING THEN THEN BAM UNBUCKLED. YOU'RE GOING TO DIE IN A HEAD ON COLLISION.*DT *DT CONSUMER STATED DEFECTIVE SEATBELT WAS REPLACED.

MY 2016 JEEP PATRIOT WAS PURCHASED ON JANUARY 29, 2016. THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN NOTHING MORE THEN A DEATH TRAP FOR ME AND A CASH COW FOR THE DEALERSHIP. I HAVE HAD MAJOR LIFE OR DEATH PROBLEMS ALMOST WITH THIS VEHICLE. THIS VEHICLE BEGAN STALLING OUT AND SHUTTING OFF WHILE DRIVING DOWN BUSY INTERSTATE OR OTHER ROADWAYS IN 2017. MY VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP DUE TO STALLING OUT AND SHUTTING OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY ON JUNE 29, 2019 AFTER I LEFT MY JOB. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH THE CONSUMER PROTECTION DIVISION AND I EXPRESSED THE DANGERS AND THE GOVERNMENT HASN'T STOPPED IN TO INTERVENE AS OF TODAY. I NOTIFIED CHRYSLER MANUFACTURER OF THE PROBLEM IN 2017, WHEN MY VEHICLE ONLY HAD 50,000 MILES. ONCE AGAIN THERE WASN'T ANYTHING DONE CONCERNING THIS SITUATION. I NOTIFIED THE NHTSA AND THIS ORGANIZATION HASN'T DONE ANYTHING...

THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM. THE ENGINE STALLS RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING. IT IS VERY UNSAFE. WE HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE DEALER SEVERAL TIMES AND THEY SAID THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM.THE FIRST TIME WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER. THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T FIND THE PROBLEM BECAUSE THERE WEREN'T ANY COMPUTER CODES. WE TOOK THE CAR BACK HOME AND THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED. WE BROUGHT IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND PAID FOR THEM TO DO THE WORK FOR THE S89 RECALL EVEN THOUGH OUR VIN ISN'T COVERED. I DON'T KNOW WHY THE RECALL JUST COVERS THE WIRE HARNESS AND NOT THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR ITSELF. WE GOT THE JEEP BACK. THE PROBLEM STILL OCCURRED. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND THE THIRD TIME THEY REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP AND THE THROTTLE BODY ASSEMBLY. WE HAD TO PAY FOR THE REPAIRS BECAUSE AT APPROX.42,000 MILES IT...

CAR CUTS OFF (ENGINE STALL) AFTER STARTING & DRIVING! FIRST IT WAS HARD TO START, THEN IT WOULD CUT OFF AFTER STARTING OR PUTTING INTO DRIVE, FINALLY IT CUT OFF ON ME WHILE DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE STREET (HAD TO BE TOWED)! THANK GOD, I WASN'T ON A MAIN HIGHWAY! BEFORE THE COMPLETE SHUT DOWN, AUTO ZONE RAN A CHECK ON MY VEHICLE FOR ME, SHOWING BATTERY & ALTERNATOR WERE FINE, BUT FOUND THAT THE SENSOR (CRANKSHAFT OR CAMSHAFT) WAS THE PROBLEM, WITH CAR CUTTING OFF! NHTSA SHOWS THIS TO BE A PROBLEM (VEHICLE STALLING,) WITH THE 2016 JEEP PATRIOT, BUT MY VIN IS NOT LISTED. I SPOKE WITH MY DEALER, THEY ACKNOWLEDGED THAT WAS A KNOWN PROBLEM BUT NOT ON MY VIN#, & THAT I WOULD NEED TO PAY FOR A DIAGNOSTIC FROM THEM, TO PROVE THAT IS WHAT WRONG (CAN ACCEPT INFORMATION FROM AUTO ZONE)! I...

2016 PATRIOT WITH,54,000 MILES. NO MAJOR ISSUES PRIOR. 2 WEEKS AGO HOWEVER, I WAS LEFT STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF A HIGHWAY ENTRANCE RAMP, ALMOST REAR-ENDED BY A SEMI AND SIDE SWIPING A CONSTRUCTION SIGN TO AVOID BEING HIT. WHEN ACCELERATING THE ETC SYMBOL (LIGHTENING BOLT) WILL DISPLAY, TRACTION CONTROL ICON AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL DISPLAY. THE JEEP COMPLETELY STOPS ACCELERATING (HIGHWAY SPEED TO 0 MPH WITHIN SECONDS=DEADLY), IT WILL SHAKE BEFORE JUST DYING. IF I'M LUCKY I'LL MAKE IT TO THE SHOULDER (IF IT HAPPENS TO HAVE ONE). THROUGH GOOGLE RESEARCH, I CAME ACROSS A WAY TO DO A "RESET" (TURN CAR OFF, INSERT KEY AND TURN "ON", PRESS GAS PEDAL SLOWLY, RELEASE SLOWLY, TURN CAR OFF AND THEN RESTART THE ENGINE). DOING THIS TYPICALLY CLEARS THE ICONS AND I'M ABLE TO TRAVEL AGAIN. THIS INTERMITTENTLY HAPPENS, SO YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU'RE POTENTIALLY ABOUT TO BE INVOLVED...

I WAS NOT INFORMED OF THIS RECALL AND HAD NO KNOWLEDGE WHY MY CAR WOULD STALL. NO NOTICE WAS SENT O MY HOUSE. I WANT ANOTHER VEHICLE, IT CAN BE USED SAME YEAR AND STYLE BUT FIXED!

CAR SHUTS OFF AND LOSES POWER AT VARIOUS SPEEDS 1-65 MILES PER HOUR. WHEN IT LOSES POWER THE POWER STEERING GOES OUT AND YOU BETTER PULL OVER FAST OR YOU WONT BE ABLE TO MOVE THE VEHICLE UNTIL YOU CAN GET IT TO START BACK UP. SOMETIMES IT TAKES A WHILE TO START BACK UP. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING TO ME FOR 5 MONTHS NOW'. I'VE TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP 2 TIMES AND THEY KEEP TELLING ME NOTHING IS WRONG... I NEVER GOT NOTIFIED OF ANY RECALLS AND THEY DIDNT EVEN INVESTIGATE TO SEE IF THERE WAS A RECALL ON MY JEEP PATRIOT THE TWO TIMES I'VE HAD IT IN. I AM NOW HAVING IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP BECAUSE IT WILL NOT DRIVE MORE THAN A FEW FEET WITH CONSTANT SHUT DOWN. IT IS DANGEROUS. THIS HAPPENS AT ALL SPEEDS, UP HILL, DOWN HILL, FLAT, ETC.

VEHICLE LOSES POWER AND ABILITY TO ACCELERATE. THIS OCCURED WHILE DRIVING ON THE INTERSTATE AT 65 MPH. THANKFULLY, I WAS ABLE TO GET VEHICLE TO SIDE OF ROAD. RESTARTED AND AS DRIVING HOME, VEHICLE TRIES TO ACCELARATE ITSELF WHILE CAR IS IDLING. HAD I NOT HAD MY FOOT FIRMLY ON BRAKE, IT WOULD HAVE TAKEN OFF. TOOK IN FOR REPAIRS AND DEALER STATES THAT THROTTLE BODY IS BAD AND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE VEHICLES. ADVISED THAT IT WAS DANGEROUS TO DRIVE AS VEHICLE CAN LOSE POWER WITHOUT WARNING.

I HAVE BEEN PULLING OFF THE ROAD, TURNING ON FLASHERS AND TURNING OFF THE ENGINE. AFTER A MINUTE I RESTART THE ENGINE AND HOPEFULLY MOVE ON DOWN THE ROAD.

I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO GET IT BACK ON AFTER ABOUT 2-3 MINUTES OF TRYING TO RESTART IT. I FOUND A RECALL ON THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR WHICH CAUSES THE ENGINE TO STALL BUT I CHECKED MY VIN AND IT SHOWS THAT THERE ISN'T...

WHEN DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, MY JEEP INSTANTLY TURNED OFF WITH NO INDICATION THAT THERE WAS SOMETHING WRONG; NO INDICATION OF LIGHTS OR WARNING ISSUES PRESENTED JUST A LOSS OF COMPLETE POWER. BRAKES WERE HARD TO PUSH AND THE POWER STEERING WAS LOST AS WELL MAKING IT VERY DIFFICULT TO CONTROL WHILE THE CAR SLOWED DOWN FROM GOING 50 MPH. I WAS LUCKILY IN THE FAR RIGHT LANE WHEN IT HAPPENED MAKING IT EASIER TO PULL OFF TO SAFETY FOR MYSELF AND FOR EVERYONE ELSE BEHIND ME. ONCE STOPPED, I TURNED THE CAR BACK ON AND ALL IT DID WAS MAKE A SPUTTERING LIKE NOISE, BUT NEVER TURNED ON.

WHILE DRIVING, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE SENSOR LIGHT AND THE ABS LIGHT CAME ON.

WHEN DRIVING THE ENGINE WILL STALL/STOP WITHOUT WARNING. WITH IT GOING STARIGHT OR TURNING IT DOES NOT MATTER. YOU HAVE TO COMPLETELY STOP THE VEHICLE AND THEN RESTART THE ENGINE. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON A NUMBER OF OCCASIONS

MY CAR WAS PARKED AT HOME IN PARKING LOT. I USED CAR EARLIER DURING THE MORNING AND HAD NO PROBLEMS WITH IT. DURING THE AFTERNOON I WENT OUTSIDE TO CRANK CAR AND IT STARTED WITH NO PROBLEMS. I THEN REALIZED I FORGOT SOMETHING IN MY HOME AND TURNED CAR OFF TOOK KEY OUT THE IGNITION AND WENT TO RETRIEVE WHAT I HAD FORGOTTEN. I CAME BACK OUT NOT EVEN 30 SECONDS, ATTEMPTED TO CRANK CAR AND THE DASH BOARD LIGHTS, AC CAME ON, BUT CAR WOULD NOT CRANK. IT MADE NO NOISE TO INDICATE IT WAS TRYING TO TURN OVER NOTHING. AFTER TRYING A FEW TIMES I CALLED GEICO TO HAVE SOMEONE COME OUT TO POSSIBLY JUMP START THE CAR, BUT THAT PERSON TESTED THE BATTERY, OIL, ALTERNATOR, AND STARTED AND SAID NONE OF THEM WERE A PROBLEM. I THEN ORDERED A TOW TRUCK THRU GEICO, HE ARRIVED ABOUT AN...

I AM DRIVING THE JEEP IS ON THE HIGHWAY, DOING 60 MPH ONE WEEK AFTER I HAD BOUGHT THE JEEP IN MAY 2016 AND IT AUTOMATICALLY STARTED GOING FASTER ON IT'S OWN, WITH THE RPM INDICATOR GOING CLOCKWISE. IT WOULD NOT SLOW DOWN ON ITS OWN SO I HAD TO DRIVE TO THE ACCESS ROAD AND PUT EMERGENCY BRAKE ON. ONCE I WAS ABLE TO START THE VEHICLE AGAIN IT RESET ITSELF AND PERFORMED NORMALLY. THIS HAS OCCURRED 5 TIMES SINCE I HAVE OWNED IT, INCLUDING JULY 25, 2018 WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN LAST WEEK. LAST YEAR I HAD IT CHECKED AND WAS TOLD A SENSOR LIGHT WAS OUT, SO THEY "FIXED" IT. IT IS STILL HAPPENING. THE DASHBOARD INDICATORS ARE CONSTANTLY FLASHING. THEY TOLD ME THEY RESET THEM ALSO. IT IS STILL OCCURRING, ALSO

TWO THINGS ARE WRONG WITH MY JEEP AND HAVE BEEN SINCE THE FIRST WEEK I'VE HAD IT, BUT THE NEWPORT POWER DEALER KEEPS TELLING ME THAT "IF THERE EVER WAS ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE CAR, IT FIXED ITSELF". BS NOTHING IS FIXED! SO THE FIRST THING IS THE SAFETY SEATBELT SENSOR'S. WHEN I HAVE A PASSENGER UP FRONT AND THEY'RE BUCKLED UP IT KEEPS BEEPING SAYING THAT THEY'RE NOT BUCKLED UP. DOESN'T HAPPEN EVERY TIME I HAVE A PASSENGER BUT IT'S SUPER ANNOYING AND HAPPENS MOSTLY WHILE DRIVING IN TOWN. THE SECOND THING IS THAT SINCE THE FIRST WEEK I'VE HAD THE JEEP, THE ENGINE KEEPS STALLING AND OTHER TIMES ACTS LIKE IT'S GOING TO DIE BUT DOESN'T. ( NEWPORT POWER DEALER TOLD ME THIS ISSUE WAS DUE TO POOR GAS MIXTURES DURING DIFFERENT TIMES OF THE YEAR. I'M NOT STUPID AND KNOW THAT'S NOT THE ISSUE, I HAVE THREE...
