2016 JEEP PATRIOT Structurebody Problems

Yes components available for inspection/ yes sold by dealership with undisclosed problems/ yes problems confirmed by dealer/ no component inspected. 1st noticed foul smell upon starting vehicle/ failure to start/ chugging/ brakes noise/ smell inside cab. Been Verified noted vehicle was in flood??? all occurred beginning 2022. Could not get the vehicle in till 03/23. All dealerships backed up wait out 8 weeks. I have had my vehicle to 3 different certified dealerships. I bought an extended warranty that no one will honor. Bought a vehicle without the full disclosure[ reconditioning repair orders[

The passenger headrest deployed at sometime when I was not in the car. Driver's headrest is fine/normal. Can this be reset?

HI, WATER STARTED LEAKING THROUGH MY INSIDE DOME LIGHT. IT HAPPENS AFTER IT RAINS.. I BROUGHT IT TO THE JEEP DEALER. THEY CLAIM THEY HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS BEFORE. IT SEEMS TO BE EPIDEMIC. BELOW IS A LINK I FOUND: HTTP://WWW.JEEPPROBLEMS.COM/INTERIOR-WATER-LEAKS/ THANKS, WERNER

WHEN I START DRIVING THE CAR AFTER A HEAVY RAIN, WATER POURS IN THROUGH THE FRONT AND REAR INTERIOR LIGHTS. THIS HAS OCCURRED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS.

PURCHASED VEHICLE LESS THAN 6 MONTHES AGO AND COMPLAINED TO THE DEALER THAT IT SOUNDED AND FELT LIKE WHEELS WERE ABOUT TO FALL OFF. 8 DAYS LATER I TOOK IT TO GET AN OIL CHANGE AND THE SHOP REFUSED. HE EXPLAINED THAT WHEN THEY LIFTED THE JEEP AND INSPECTED TIRES THE WIRE TREADS WERE EXPOSED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TIRE, AT ANY MOMENT THE VEHICLE COULD POSE SERIOUS INJURY OR DEATH TO PASSENGERS. I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY CHANGED TIRE BUT DID NOT INSPECT THE VEHICLE. THE BRAKES CONTINUALLY MADE A SCREECHING SOUND , FOR SOME UNKNOWN REASON. THE STEERING WHEEL WOULD OFTEN VEER LEFT WHEN TURNED RIGHT AND THE JEEP KEPT MAKING RUBBING AND POPPING SOUNDS LAST WEEK WHILE TRAVELLING LESS THAN 20 MILES AN HOUR THE CAR MADE A POPPING SOUND , I LOST CONTROL OF STEERING WHEEL AND IT WAS VEERING TO RIGHT...

I COME DOWN A SMALL OVER PASS, AND ICE WASN'T VISIBLE/ WHEN I BRAKED MY LEFT TIRE DRIVER SIDE AT THE CURB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP PATRIOT. WHILE DRIVING IN THE RAIN AT 10 MPH, THE CONTACT STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN AND A LARGE AMOUNT OF WATER BEGAN TO LEAK FROM THE MAP LIGHTS IN THE ROOF OF THE VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 28,750.

ON 4/12/17 AT APPROXIMATELY 5:30 PM I WAS DRIVING MY JEEP OF 11,000 MILES ON IT. STILL A NEW CAR. IT STARTED RUNNING AS IF LOOSING POWER. I PULLED OFF OF HIGHWAY TO SEE WHAT WAS HAPPENING. I PULLED HOOD RELEASE IT DID NOT OPEN. I LOOKED UNDER JEEP TO ATTEMPT TO GET HOOD OPEN AS AN POLICE OFFICER PULLED UP BESIDE CAR TO SEE IF I WAS OK. AS HE BEGAN TO ASK THIS AND I TURNED TO REPLY. CAR BURST INTO FLAMES. OFFICER ATTEMPTED TO USE FIRE EXTINGUISHER BUT IT DID NOT HELP AND BY THE TIME FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED IT WAS A TOTAL LOSS. FIRE RAGED SO HOT IT MELTED THE FRONT SEAT HEAD RESTS AND THE ENTIRE FRONT OF JEEP IS GONE. PERHAPS BY PULLING OVER IS THE ONLY REASON I AM STILL ALIVE. I HAVE A LOT OF DOCUMENTS AND PICTURES. IN THESE DOCUMENTS I...

NOT SURE IF TAKATA INFLATORS ARE INVOLVED. ON THURSDAY 1/12/2017, I WAS STOPPED ON THE FREEWAY AND WAS REAR-ENDED BY A SEMI TRUCK WHICH DIDN'T STOP GOING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH. IT PUSHED ME INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WHICH WAS A CAR LENGTH AWAY. THE SEAT BROKE BACKWARDS, THE HEADREST BROKE OFF COMPLETELY AND I HIT THE REAR VEIW MIRROR BREAKING IT OFF. NONE OF THE 6 AIRBAGS IN THE VEHICLE DEPLOYED,

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS INVOLVED IN A ACCIDENT ON MARCH 14, 2016. I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN WHEN A SUV WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN TO THE STREET I WAS STOPPED WAITING TO MAKE MY RIGHT TURN. THE GENTLEMAN WAS SPEEDING AND TOOK A HARD RIGHT, HE LOST CONTROL OF HIS VEHICLE AND HIT ME FULL IMPACT ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THE ENTIRE DRIVER SIDE HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT INFLATE, THE AIRBAG LIGHTS DID NOT TURN ON. AT THE IMPACT THAT I WAS HIT THEY SHOULD HAVE GONE OFF AND NO ONE KNOWS OR COULD EXPLAIN WHY THEY DIDN'T DEPLOY. WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AND I WENT TO PICK UP, THEN THE AIRBAG LIGHTS WERE ON AND HAD TO BE RESET AND THE SEATBELT WAS NOT PROPERLY WORKING (THAT HAD TO BE REPLACED)

WENT THROUGH CAR WASH, WATER CAME POURING IN THROUGH DOME LIGHT, RAINING ON RADIO. TOOK TO THE DEALERSHIP WHO SAID THE DRAIN LINES ARE TOO SMALL AND OFTEN NEED TO BE UNCLOGGED. THEY OFFER NO EXPLANATION OF THE POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL HAZARD OR THE ROTTING EFFECTS OF WATER LEFT UNSEEN IN THE ROOF LININGS. I GOOGLED THE ISSUE AND FOUND THE HISTORY OF THIS POOR DESIGN GOES BACK TO 2008. THE DEALER TOLD ME THEY HAVE NOT BEEN RECALLED AND CAN ONLY UNCLOG/BLOW OUT THE DRAIN TUBES DURING MY ROUTINE OIL CHANGES...THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AS A POTENTIAL ELECTRICAL SAFETY HAZARD. I AM LEASING THE VEHICLE BUT MAY NEED TO SWITCH OUT. THIS IS AN ACKNOWLEDGED MANUFACTURERS DEFECT THAT THEY ARE APPARENTLY IGNORING TO THE CONSUMERS RISK OF ELECTRICAL FIRE, AND OR ROTTING ACCESSORIES CAUSING POTENTIAL SEVERE DEVALUATION IN TRADE IN / SALE POTENTIAL AS WELL AS ACTUAL CASH VALUE...

ROOF LEAKING THROUGH REAR CARGO LIGHT, DEALER FAILED TO REPAIR PROPERLY AFTER 4 ATTEMPTS.
