2009 Jeep Patriot

TAKES ABOUT 15 MINUTES OR MORE TO PUT GAS IN MY GAS TANK. ON THE INTERNET SEARCH IT'S A COMMON PROBLEM THAT A LOT OF JEEP PATRIOT'S HAVE. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THE CAUSE IS A ROLL OVER VALVE WHICH IS PLASTIC AND LOCATED IN THE TANK ITSELF. THAT THE ONLY WAY TO SOLVE THE PROBLEM IS TO GET A NEW TANK PUT IN. I FEEL THAT THEY SHOULD HAVE HAD A RECALL ON THIS AND SHOULD HAVE FIXED THE PROBLEM.ON THE INTERNET VEHICLES WITH THE SAME PROBLEM RANGING FROM 2007-2015. THIS HAPPENS EVERY TIME I TRY TO PUT GAS IN MY CAR.

THE REAR SUSPENSION CROSMEMBER CORRODED AND SNAPPED IN HALF. THERE WAS A 10YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY THAT I APPARENTLY MISSED BY A FEW MONTHS. THIS IS SUPER DANGEROUS. IT CAUSED THE TIRE TO POP WHEN I WAS DRIVING HOME FROM IT RUBBING AND THEN I VEERED OFF THE ROAD. THE FRONT CROSSMEMBER IS ALSO IN SIMILAR CONDITION. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL ASAP. IT IS NOW STATIONARY AND IMMOBILE BECAUSE OF THE SITUATION. IT WAS IN MOTION WHEN THE ACCIDENT HAPPENED ON A CITY STREET. IT CAUSED ME TO NEED A TOW.

LOUD CLUNKING NOISE FROM LEFT FRONT WHEEL AREA WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING TURNS.. VISUAL INSPECTION REVEALED CROSSMEMBER SERIOUSLY RUSTED AND CORRODED AT UPPER CONTROL ARM AREA. SEVERAL MAJOR CRACKS IN SUBFRAME DUE TO RUST THROUGH COMPROMISING VEHICLE STABILITY. COMPLAINTS MADE TO CHRYSLER AND THE DEALERSHIP WITH NO RESOLUTION. CHRYSLER WAS WELL AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND PUT OUT A SERVICE BULLETIN PERTAINING TO THE PROBLEM.SERVICE BULLETIN 23-007-17 REV B. EXTENDING WARRANTY COVERAGE FOR ONLY 10 YEARS. I BELIEVE CHRYSLER DELIBERATELY PUT A 10 YEAR CAP ON THESE PARTS TO LIMIT THEIR RESPONSIBILITY BECAUSE THEY WERE WELL AWARE OF THE SEVERE RUSTING ISSUE AND KNEW OTHER VEHICLES WOULD SOON BE EFFECTED. I 'AM NOW FACING A REPAIR BILL OF OVER $1000.00 AND THAT DOES NOT INCLUDE ANYTHING ELSE THAT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE OF THIS PARTS FAILURE.

THE OVER HEATING LIGHT TURNS ON ON THE DASH AND MY CAR OVER HEATS AFTER DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY GOING OVER 50MPH FOR MORE THAN 15 MINUTES. HOWEVER, IF I DRIVE ON STATE ROADS GOING 50MPH OR UNDER THE CAR DOESN'T OVER HEAT. I GOT A NEW THERMOSTAT AND NEW RADIOTOR THINKING IT WOULD SOLVE THE PROBLEM AND IT DID NOT. THERE IS NO LEAK COMING FROM THE CAR SO IT IS NOT A WATER PUMP ISSUE. THE COOLANT LEVELS ARE GOOD.

JEEP STUTTERS AND STALLS OUT IMMEDIATELY UPON FILLING TANK WITH GAS, ALMOST GOT HIT MANY TIMES PULLING OUT OF GAS STATION, THIS NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED, IT IS DEADLY AND MANY OTHER PEOPLE ON VARIOUS FORUMS HAVE REPORTED SAME PROBLEM. NHTSA NEEDS TO STOP OVERLOOKING THIS ISSUE. IT IS A COMMON VEHICLE STILL ON THE ROAD TODAY AND I HAVE NO PLANS TO GET RID OF THE CAR FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER 5 YEARS MINIMUM. RECALL THIS ISSUE, IT IS DEADLY AND DANGEROUS AND I WILL NOT BE A STATISTIC.

IT HAS BEEN MAKING A CRACKING/CLUNKING NOISE THERE FOR YEARS. MY WIFE COMPLAINED OF IT SOUNDING LOUDER THAN NORMAL, SO I LOOKED AT IT CLOSER AND NOTICED THE CROSSMEMBER WAS BROKEN. I'VE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THAT SIDE FOR SEVERAL YEARS AND HAVE REPLACED BROKEN BALL JOINTS AND CONTROL ARMS. I FOUND OUT LAST NIGHT THAT THIS WOULD'VE BEEN A WARRANTY ITEM HAD I BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN 6 MONTHS AGO, BUT AM BEING TOLD THAT I BROUGHT IT IN TOO LATE. MY REPLY WAS I DIDN'T KNOW THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE AND WASN'T NOTIFIED THAT THERE WAS AN EXTENDED WARRANTY PLACED ON THAT PART. *TR

12/12/19 TRIED TO GET ON I-295 ALL LIGHTS ON DASH CAME ON INCLUDING MALFUNCTION INDICATOR, ESP BAS, AND OTHERS ALL CAME ON WHEN NO LIGHTS WERE ON BEFORE. LOST POWER TO JEEP ON 295 COULD NOT GO ANY FAST THEN 25 MPH AND THEN STALLED; ALMOST REAR ENDED. COULD RESTART JEEP, ALL DASH LIGHTS STILL ON, NO POWER PAST 25 MPH AND MADE IT OFF AN OFF RAMP WHERE STALLED AGAIN. TOWED JEEP TO MECHANIC WHERE THEY REPLACED PCM, INTAKE MANIFOLD, AND O2 CENSOR. CALLED JEEP BECAUSE THERE IS A RECALL TO PCM AND WAS TOLD MY VIN NOT INCLUDED. 12/26/2019 ON I-295 GOING 70MPH AND JEEP LOST ALL POWER WITH NO WARNING LIGHTS THIS TIME AND HAD NO ACCELERATION. WAS IN THE FAR LEFT LANE AND HAD NEAR MISS OF BEING REAR ENDED BY TRACTOR TRAILER. VEERED JEEP TO BREAKDOWN LANE AND TOWED TO MECHANIC. SECOND MECHANIC REPAIRED GROUND AT G104 ON RIGHT SIDE OF ENGINE BAY SAID IS REASON FOR SEVERAL COMPUTERISED CONTROLS. 1/7/2020 PUT FULL TANK OF GAS IN VEHICLE AND PULLED INTO INTERSECTION AND JEEP BUCKED AND STALLED OUT. CALLED MECHANIC SAID POSSIBLE FUEL SENSOR PROBLEM. JEEP PATRIOTS HAVE HAD ISSUES WITH PCM AND FUEL PROBLEMS BUT AM TOLD MY 2009 JEEP NOT A PART OF THIS RECALL. JEEP IS STILL NOT RUNNING PROPERLY AND WILL NOT DRIVE ON HIGHWAY. VERY DANGEROUS AND VERY EXPANSIVE.

I WAS IN MOTION AND THE TRANS TEMP LIGHT LIGHT UP AND MY CAR BEGAN TO STALE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY. I WAS TRAVELING ALONE AND 4 HOURS AWAY . THIS WAS VERY DANGEROUS. I COULD HAVE BEEN HIT BY A PASSING TRUCK. LUCKILY, I WAS IN THE LEFT LANE AND WAS ABLE TO PARK ON THE SHOULDER. I HAD TO SEARCH MY SAFETY MANUAL TO UNDERSTAND WHAT WAS HAPPENING. I HAD TO WAIT OVER 30 MINS FOR THE LIGHT TO DISENGAGE AND DRIVE 55 ON THE HIGHWAY. I TOOK IT TO THE SHOP AND THERE WAS NO SIGNS. I DID A GOOGLE SEARCH AND REALIZED THIS IS A COMMON ISSUE WITH THE JEEP PATRIOTS. I HAVE HEARD HORROR STORIES OF FAMILIES WITH LITTLE KIDS BEING STRANDED. PLEASE PROVIDE SOME SORT OF RESOLUTION TO THIS EVENTUALLY COSTLY ISSUE.
