2012 JEEP PATRIOT Complaints

ISSUE IS I CANNOT FUEL TANK DUE TO FUEL TANK VALVE STUCK. I JUST HAD THE ESIM REPLACED BECAUSE THAT WAS WHAT THE DEALER SAID WAS THE ISSUE. PROBLEM WASN'T RESOLVED AND NOW I HAVE TO REPLACE FUEL TANK. I SAW WHERE THERE WERE OTHER VEHICLES EXPERIENCING THIS SAME ISSUE AND WERE RECALLED.

FRONT CONTROL ARMS AND/OR BUSHINGS HAVE GONE BAD, BEFORE 72K MILES. CAUSES STEERING INSTABILITY AND EXCESSIVE TIRE WEAR. DOZENS OF OTHER REPORTS OF THIS SAME PROBLEM FOR THIS SAME MAKE/MODEL ARE EASILY FOUND ONLINE. THIS IS OBVIOUSLY A MANUFACTURING DEFECT, AND IT MERITS A RECALL.

I WENT TO THE CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE AN ORC MODULE S61 THAT WAS RECALLED. THEY REPLACED THE PART BUT RIGHT AS I WAS LEAVING THE DELEARSHIP, MY AIRBAG LIGHT CAME ON. I CALLED THE DEALERSHIP TO LET THEM KNOW BECAUSE I HAD TO PICK UP MY KIDS FROM THE BUS STOP, SHE TOLD ME TO BRING IT UP DURING MY OIL CHANGE THE NEXT WEEK. I DID AND THEY TOLD ME IT WASN'T THEIR PROBLEM, THE RECALL HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE AIRBAGS, AND QUOTED ME AT $600 FOR THEM TO GO THROUGH MY CAR AND CHECK THE WIRES. THE SERVICE MANAGER DID TELL ME THE OBD 2 READING WAS B1C29-LEFT SIDE SEAT THORAX SQUIB 1 OPEN AND B1C2D- RIGHT SIDE SEAT THORAX SQUIB 1 OPEN; AND ADVISED ME TO UNPLUG AND PLUG ALL THE CONNECTORS UNDER THE SEAT. I DID THIS AND NOTHING HAPPENED. I CALLED THEM BACK AND THEY SAID THEY COULDN'T DO ANYTHING TO FIX IT AND IT WAS MY FAULT NOT THEIRS AND I RECIEVED THE SAME $600 QUOTE TO FIX IT. I KNOW IT HAPPENED WHILE THEY WERE WORKING ON IT AND I HAVE FOUND A COUPLE OF THREADS WITH PEOPLE THAT HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND THEY ALL SAID TO MAKE A COMPLAINT ON HERE.

DRIVING ON THE FRWY CAR TURNED OFF AND WOULD NOT TURN BACK ON , FROM THEN IN IT HAS HAS TROUBLE STARTING LIGHT SIGNALS TRIP . I'VE BEEN STRANDED WITH NO CRANK. TOOK IT TO SEVERAL MECHANICS ALL WHOM SAYNITS A FAULTY TPIM . WITH A $1000 OR MORE FIX.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP PATRIOT. WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNKNOWN SPEED, THE VEHICLE SHUT DOWN. AFTER AN HOUR, THE VEHICLE RESTARTED ON ITS OWN. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO THE LOCAL DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING. THE LOCAL DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 126,000.

MY SCREEN TABLET SHOW ME SOME TIME ON AIR BAG IS OFF . TURN ON AND TURN OFF MANY TIMES. TODAY 10/24/2018 . I WENT TO CHRYSLER FOR RECALL BUT THEY DOESN'T FIXED. I AM VERY UNSUCEFULL WITH CHRYSLER. THEY DON'T GIVE ME A NEW DATE FOR FIXED. I WANT REPORTING WITH YOU "NHTSA" THANK YOU. I NEED A EARLY MESSENGER OF YOU.

WHEN I TRY TO PUT GASOLINE IN MY CAR, THE PUMP KEEPS SHUTTING OFF. THIS IS VERY FRUSTRATING. I HAVE TRIED DIFFERENT GASOLINE STATIONS. HAD THIS PROBLEM BEFORE, BUT NOW IT IS WORSE EVERY TIME I TRY TO PUT FUEL IN THE TANK. I CONTACTED THE DEALER, THEY TOLD ME NO RECALL FOR FOR MY JEEP.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN A INTERSTATE WITH MY INFANT SON IN THE BACK OF THE CAR WHEN IT SHUT OFF ON ME INCLUDING DASH LIGHTS AND RADIO. I WAS FORTUNATE TO GET IT OFF THE SIDE OF THE ROAD SAFELY. I TOOK IT TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THEY ADVISED THAT MY TIPM WENT BAD. THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY CONCERN. I DID READ NEWER JEEPS WERE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE.

WHEN THE VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN AND WAITED AT INTERSECTION OR MIDDLE LANE, THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF BY ITSELF. WHEN IT IS RESTARTED, THE POWER IS BACK EITHER IMMEDIATELY OR AFTER A FEW MINUTES. I READ ONLINE AND MANY MANY CUSTOMERS REPORTED THIS PROBLEM, RANGING FROM VERY NEW JEEP PATRIOT (LESS THAN 10,000 MILES) TO DRIVING AT HIGH SPEED. THE LINKS ARE SHOWN BELOW: HTTP://WWW.CARPROBLEMZOO.COM/JEEP/PATRIOT/AUTOMATIC-TRANSMISSION-CONTROL-MODULE-PROBLEMS.PHP HTTPS://WWW.JEEPPATRIOT.COM/FORUM/5-JEEP-PATRIOT-GENERAL-DISCUSSION/92388-HELP-ENGINE-SHUT-DOWN.HTML WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER, THEY CAN NOT FIGURE OUT THE CAUSES. THE LAST TIME, THEY SAID IT IS THE TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE ISSUE. SINCE SO MANY CUSTOMERS REPORTED THIS ISSUE, THIS VEHICLE NEEDS A RECALL. THE UNEXPECTED SHUTOFF IS VERY DANGEROUS.

TRANSMISSION OVERHEATED GOING 60 MILES PER HOUR ON THE INTERSTATE. I PULLED OVER AND LET THE LIGHT GO OFF PER THE USER MANUAL AND DIDN'T DRIVE IT ANYMORE. PUT IT IN THE SHOP ON MONDAY AND IT NEEDS A BRAND NEW TRANSMISSION WITH ONLY 119K MILES ON IT!
