2012 JEEP PATRIOT Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP PATRIOT. WHILE DRIVING 75 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO FIRESTONE OF LUBBOCK, TEXAS WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE FUEL TRANSFER TUBE DID NOT BRING FUEL INTO THE MAIN FUEL TANK, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO RUN OUT OF FUEL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 13V120000 (FUEL SYSTEM, GASOLINE). THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 45,000.

ON MAY 14, 2017 I WALKED OUTSIDE TO MY PARKED CAR IN THE DRIVEWAY AND NOTICED THAT THE TIRE ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE WAS SEPARATING DOWN THE MIDDLE. I IMMEDIATELY DROVE TO FIRESTONE, WITH CAUTION AND LOW SPEED, AND GOT IT INSPECTED. ONCE INSPECTED BY ONSITE WORKERS, THEY TOLD ME THAT THE TIRE HAD FAILED AND THAT I WOULD NEED A NEW ONE. I AM CONCERNED BECAUSE I PURCHASED A PACKAGE AT FIRESTONE WITH FOUR TIRES AND I AM WORRIED THAT THIS WILL HAPPEN TO THE REST OF MY TIRES.

THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY IN MY DRIVEWAY WHEN I NOTICED THAT MY TIRE,ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE, WAS SEPARATING DOWN THE MIDDLE OF THE TIRE. I BROUGHT MY CAR TO FIRESTONE SO THAT MY TIRE COULD BE INSPECTED. ONCE INSPECTED BY ONSITE WORKERS, THEY TOLD ME THAT THE TIRE HAD FAILED AND THAT I NEEDED A NEW ONE. I AM ATTACHING PICTURES TO SHOW HOW MY TIRE SEPARATED. I STILL HAVE MY TIRE SO THAT I CAN SEND IT IN FOR FIRESTONE TO FURTHER INVESTIGATE THE TIRE FAILURE.

TAKATA RECALL, IN REFERENCE TO THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER, I HAVE BEEN GIVEN THE RUN AROUND WHEN I CALL CONCERNING THIS ISSUE. AM CONCERNED THEY WILL SELF DEPLOY, OR NOT DEPLOY. HAVE SIGNED UP FOR NOTIFICATIONS FOR REPLACEMENT PARTS, AND HAVE GIVEN THE DEALERSHIP TO DO THE WORK. TO DATE NOT A WORD ABOUT MY ISSUES OR RECALL NOTIFICATIONS, AND IT'S BEEN VERY UPSETTING. I WORRY EVERY TIME I GET BEHIND THE WHEEL, OR HAVE A PASSENGER IN THE CAR.

I WAS PULLING OUT OF A PARKING LOT ONTO A BUSY STREET. I PUT MY FOOT ON THE ACCELERATOR TO GAIN SPEED AND THERE WAS NO RESPONSE. I COULD NOT ACCELERATE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS ABLE TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON AND WAS THEN ABLE TO ACCELERATE. I HAD THE CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALERSHIP HAD THE CAR FOR A WEEK AND SAID THE CAR WAS FIXED WITHOUT GIVING MUCH OF AN EXPLANATION. I HAD THE CAR BACK FOR 2 DAY AND IT HAPPENED TO ME AGAIN TWICE. I TOOK THE CAR BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY HAVE HAD IT FOR AN ADDITIONAL WEEK WITH NO DIAGNOSIS. THEY SAY THEY HAVE NOT BEEN ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE. I AM CONCERNED TO DRIVE THE CAR AS THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME ON THREE OCCASIONS ON BUSY STREETS AND IT IS VERY DANGERS.
