BACK IN NOVEMBER OF 2018 MY JEEP WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. MY SON WAS THE OPERATOR OF THE VEHICLE AT THE TIME ON HIS WAY TO PICK ME UP FROM WORK IN TIVERTON RHODE ISLAND. ACCORDING TO HIM, HE RECALLS EVERYTHING FINE AND THEN A MOMENT WHEREIN EVERYTHING WENT BLANK. UPON ARRIVAL THE VEHICLE WAS SEVERELY DAMAGED, I ASKED HIM WHAT HAPPENED, HE WAS IN A STATE OF CONFUSION. AT THAT POINT THE POLICE HAD CAUGHT UP, AND BEGAN THE INVESTIGATION, AND MY SON WENT TO THE HOSPITAL BY RESCUE. FAST FORWARD: WE ARE IN QUESTION TO THE VEHICLE'S SAFETY. AT THE TIME OF THE INCIDENT THE VEHICLE VEERED INTO THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC. BASED ON OUR INVESTIGATION AND RECALL OF THE INCIDENT A: THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND B: THE RIGHT WHEEL AND AXLE WAS COMPLETELY DISENGAGED ALTHOUGH THE VEHICLE HAD SUSTAINED A MAJORITY OF DAMAGES ON THE LEFT/DRIVER'S SIDE! THE LEFT/DRIVER'S SIDE WHEEL AND AXLE WAS STILL COMPLETELY INTACT DESPITE SUSTAINING A VAST AMOUNT OF DAMAGES. *DT*JB

WE HAVE A JEEP PATRIOT 2016 AND WERE TOLD THAT THERE WAS A RECALL ON IT FOR THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR WHICH EFFECTS THE STARTER. WE HAVE BEEN HAVING ISSUES WITH THE JEEP STARTING AND TOLD BY A MECHANIC THAT IT WAS UNDER RECALL. WE TOOK IT TO THE JEEP DEALER AND THEY SCHEDULED IT TO BE FIXED. WE WERE THEN CALLED AND TOLD THAT THIS VEHICLE MISSED THE RECALL DATE BY 2 MONTHS SO IT WOULD NOT BE COVERED BY THE RECALL AND IT WOULD COST TO HAVE THIS FIXED. IT IS THE SAME ISSUE THAT HAS BEEN REPORTED ON OTHER 2016 JEEPS AND THIS SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE AS WELL. WE ARE NOW HAVING TO PAY TO HAVE THIS REPAIR DONE WHEN VEHICLES OF THE SAME YEAR WERE RECALLED FOR THE SAME ISSUE! THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY WHEN THE ISSUE STARTED AND IT WOULD NOT START. WE ACTUALLY HAD IT HOOKED UP TO READ WHAT THE ISSUE WAS ALSO. IT IDENTIFIED AN ISSUE WITH THE CRANKSHAFT SENSOR. THE SAME REPORTED RECALL ISSUE!

I WAS GOING UPHILL ON A RURAL ROAD WHEN MY CAR POWERED DOWN AND THE RPMS DROPPED DOWN TO 0. IT KICKED RIGHT BACK IN, IT HAPPENED ONE MORE TIME ON MY WAY HOME THROUGH THE CITY. WHEN I GOT INTO MY DRIVEWAY, BEFORE I COULD COME TO A COMPLETE STOP IT DROPPED RPMS AND POWERED DOWN. AFTER A HALF AN HOUR I WENT OUT TO HEAD TO A DR. APPT AND MY JEEP WOULDN'T START.

MY VEHICLE FEELS LIKE IT'S STALLING OR THE TRANSMISSION IS GOING OUT WHEN I MAKE TURNS.

230AM ON INTERSTATE 25, NO ROAD LIGHTING, NO TRAFFIC NEARBY. BY OURSELVES, FOUR OF US ON THE WAY TO THE AIRPORT. SET CRUISE CONTROL TO 75MPH. SECONDS LATER ALL LIGHTS INCLUDING DASHBOARD WENT OUT. IN TOTAL DARK NESS. GUESSED SIDE OF ROAD. MANAGED TO STOP CAR. TURNED OFF, BACK ON, ALL RESTORED. WE ACTUALLY GRAZED AN OVERPASS WHICH I HAVE ATTACHED PHOTOS. WE FOUR CAME NEAR DEATH. SCARED TO DRIVE CAR. JUST HAD "PATCH" WORK DONE AT NEARBY DEALERSHIP TO REPAIR ABS AND TRACTION LIGHTSS THAT WERE ON. PLEASE ADVISE.

TAKATA RECALL THE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON AND THE TRANSMISSION SLIPS WHEN THE VEHICLE IS ON THE HIGHWAY IN MOTION LOSING THE POWER.

I WAS DRIVING 65 MPH ON A BUSY FREEWAY, WHEN MY VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN 40 MILES AND STALLED. APPROXIMATELY 1 HOUR LATER, AAA ARRIVES INSPECT MY VEHICLE AND THERE'S NOTHING APPARENTLY WRONG. MY CAR DRIVES LIKE NOTHING EVER HAPPENED. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS! I WILL BE TAKING IT INTO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP TOMORROW. THIS HAPPENED IN MENLO PARK, CA OFF THE WILLOW EXIT. I WAS IN THE MIDDLE LANE, AND MANAGED TO MAKE IT TO A CENTER DIVIDER.
