I BOUGHT MY JEEP TO BE A SAFE FAMILY VEHICLE AND INSTEAD I WORRY EVERY TIME I GET BEHIND THE WHEEL BECAUSE I BUCKLE MY SEAT. I HAVE BEEN IN A HEAD ON COLLISION BEFORE IN A JEEP WRANGLER AND WAS FORTUNATE TO BE OKAY, NOW THIS VEHICLE'S SEATBELT UNBUCKLES ITSELF DURING DRIVING, AND WHEN PRESSURE IS BEING APPLIED. I KNOW THAT IT IS NOT "USER ERROR" BECAUSE IT HAPPENS TO EVERY PERSON WHO HAS DRIVEN MY PATRIOT. HOW AM I SUPPOSED TO FEEL SAFE WITH MY INFANTS IN THE CAR WHEN I CAN'T EVEN FEEL SAFE WITH JUST ME IN IT?! *TR

THE FIRST TIME I HAD THE JEEP IN FOR REPAIR 4 TIMES MAKING A NOISE IN THE BACK BRAKES THAT WAS FRIDAY THE 6/20/2014 AND AGAIN TODAY WITH NOISE IN THE FRONT BRAKES THEY TOLD ME AT MONRO MUFFLER HERE IN HERKIMER NEWYORK 13350 THAT THERE ISN'T ANYTHING WRONG WITH THE BRAKES IN THE FRONT BUT THEY STILL ARE RUBBING AFTER LEAVING THERE I WENT TO A STORE A LITTLE DOWN THE ROAD AND THE ENGINE LIGHT COME ON THEY TELL ME IT ONLY THE GAS CAP I JUST GOT THIS CAR 6/13/20014 THE CAR SALES WAS HERE IN HERKIMER KAMART PARKING LOT VISION IS THE NAME OF THE CAR DEALER MY TOTAL FOR THIS CAR IS $12,697.92 I WANT THEM TO TAKE THIS CAR BACK I DON'T WANT IT PLEASE DO SOMETHING FOR ME THANK YOU *TR

ANY TIME I TAKE A LONG TRIP (1HR +) OR I'M IN HEAVY TRAFFIC MY TRANSMISSION LIGHT COMES ON ACCOMPANIED WITH A WHINING NOISE AND LOSS OF POWER. I LIVE IN PHOENIX, ARIZONA, SO TEMPS IN THE SUMMER ARE EXTREMELY HIGH. MY WIFE WAS HEADING TO FLAGSTAFF ONE DAY IN MID AUGUST SHE LOST POWER TO OUR PATRIOT AND COULDN'T GO OVER 40MPH. SHE WAS STUCK IN 115 DEGREE HEAT FOR OVER ONE HOUR WAITING FOR THE VEHICLE TO COOL DOWN. SHE HAD TO REPEAT THIS THREE DIFFERENT TIME UNTIL SHE MADE IT TO HER DESTINATION. I ALMOST WAS REAR ENDED WHEN I LOST POWER IN THE CITY TRYING TO GET OFF THE ROAD. CREATES DANGEROUS DRIVING CONDITIONS!! *TR

WHEN DRIVING MY JEEP IN THE WARMER MONTHS, IF I TRAVEL FOR MORE THAN 30 MILES OR SO THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT COMES ON AND THEN THE VEHICLE SEIZES. THIS HAPPENS WITHOUT MUCH NOTICE AND LAST WEEK MY DAUGHTER WAS ALMOST INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT BECAUSE THE CAR JUST STOPPED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. DRIVING ON THE SAN DIEGO 405 FREEWAY IS DANGEROUS ENOUGH HOWEVER; I AM GOING TO LAND UP GETTING KILLED IF THIS IS NOT TAKEN CARE OF. I HAVE CONTACTED MY DEALER AND THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO ABOUT IT. WILL IT TAKE A CLASS ACTION SUIT BEFORE CHRYSLER DECIDES TO RECALL THIS EXTREMELY SERIOUS CONDITION??? *JS
