2014 JEEP PATRIOT Complaints

THE TRANSMISSION FILL PIPE BROKE OFF AND WAS HANGING UNDER THE CAR. LUCKILY WE NOTICED THAT SOMETHING WAS HANGING OFF THE CAR WHILE IT WAS PARKED, MY BOYFRIEND REACHED UNDER THE CAR TO SEE WHAT IT WAS AND IT CAME OFF IN HIS HAND. HAD IT FALLEN OFF WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION IT COULD HAVE CAUSED AN ACCIDENT OR IT COULD HAVE FALLEN OFF AND WE WOULD HAVE NEVER NOTICED IT AND HAD PROBLEMS WITH THE TRANSMISSION AT SOME POINT. THE DEALERSHIP SERVICE DEPARTMENT PRETENDED LIKE THEY'D NEVER HEAR OF THIS HAPPENING BEFORE BUT A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS THAT THIS IS AN ISSUE THAT MANY PATRIOT AND CALIBER OWNERS HAVE EXPERIENCED. I ALSO SUSPECT THAT A LOT OF THESE HAVE FALLEN OFF WITHOUT THE OWNERS EVEN REALIZING IT.

VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE LOSS OF AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER DEPLOYMENT CAPABILITY IN CERTAIN CRASH EVENTS DUE TO A SHORTING CONDITION RESULTING IN A NEGATIVE VOLTAGE TRANSIENT THAT TRAVELS TO THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER VIA THE FRONT IMPACT SENSOR WIRES.

RECALL WITH NO REMEDY YET. IN ADDITION WE HAVE EXPERIENCED LOSS OF POWER IN THE CAR. I HAVE CHILDREN. I DON'T FEEL IT IS SAFE FOR ME TO DRIVE WITH THEM.

MY HUSBAND AND I PURCHASED A 2014 JEEP PATRIOT AT THE END OF 2013. I USE THE VEHICLE TO DRIVE FROM HOME TO WORK AND BACK. CURRENTLY IT HAS 21458 MILES. FROM THE START THE CLOCK HAS BEEN DROPPING TIME. I HAVE TAKEN IT BACK TO THE DEALER TO GET THE CLOCK FIXED. AFTER BEING FIXED IT STILL CONTINUED TO DROP TIME BUT BEFORE I COULD RETURN IT TO THE DEALER ANOTHER PROBLEM AROSE. ON 9/28/2016 THE ENGINE WOULD CUT OUT EACH TIME IT WAS STARTED. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALER FOR REPAIR. THEY SAID THE WCM WAS BAD, THIS NOT ONLY CAUSED THE ENGINE TO CUT OUT BUT ALSO CAUSE THE CLOCK TO LOSE TIME. NOW HERE WE ARE AGAIN WITH THE SAME PROBLEM. 11/15/2016 - WHEN STARTED THE ENGINE CUTS OUT BUT WITHIN A FEW HOURS OR THE NEXT DAY I CAN START IT UP BUT THIS TIME DID NOT CUT OUT. THIS PROBLEM HAS MADE ME VERY UNEASY. I AM TAKING A CHANCE WHEN I LEAVE HOME. IT JUST SO HAPPENED WHEN BOTH INCIDENTS OCCURRED I HAVE BEEN LUCKY ENOUGH TO BE AT HOME.
