2016 JEEP PATRIOT Complaints

NOT SURE IF TAKATA INFLATORS ARE INVOLVED. ON THURSDAY 1/12/2017, I WAS STOPPED ON THE FREEWAY AND WAS REAR-ENDED BY A SEMI TRUCK WHICH DIDN'T STOP GOING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH. IT PUSHED ME INTO THE VEHICLE IN FRONT OF ME WHICH WAS A CAR LENGTH AWAY. THE SEAT BROKE BACKWARDS, THE HEADREST BROKE OFF COMPLETELY AND I HIT THE REAR VEIW MIRROR BREAKING IT OFF. NONE OF THE 6 AIRBAGS IN THE VEHICLE DEPLOYED,

THE SEAT BELT SENSOR DOES NOT PROPERLY DISENGAGE. WHEN I PULL THE SEAT BELT ABOUT 1 TO 2 INCHES THE SENSOR ON THE DASH GOES OFF. I HAVE BEEN WORKING WITH THE DEALERSHIP BUT ALSO WANTED TO REMOVE IT.

TAKATA RECALL. I WAS INVOLVED IN A ACCIDENT ON MARCH 14, 2016. I WAS STOPPED AT A STOP SIGN WHEN A SUV WAS MAKING A RIGHT TURN TO THE STREET I WAS STOPPED WAITING TO MAKE MY RIGHT TURN. THE GENTLEMAN WAS SPEEDING AND TOOK A HARD RIGHT, HE LOST CONTROL OF HIS VEHICLE AND HIT ME FULL IMPACT ON THE DRIVER SIDE. THE ENTIRE DRIVER SIDE HAD TO BE REPLACED. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT INFLATE, THE AIRBAG LIGHTS DID NOT TURN ON. AT THE IMPACT THAT I WAS HIT THEY SHOULD HAVE GONE OFF AND NO ONE KNOWS OR COULD EXPLAIN WHY THEY DIDN'T DEPLOY. WHEN MY VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED AND I WENT TO PICK UP, THEN THE AIRBAG LIGHTS WERE ON AND HAD TO BE RESET AND THE SEATBELT WAS NOT PROPERLY WORKING (THAT HAD TO BE REPLACED)

I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AROUND 2:30 PM WHEN I NOTICE SMOKE COMING OUT FROM UNDER MY HOOD. I PULLED OFF TO A SAFE SPOT AND BY THIS TIME II COULD SEE THE FIRE COMING OUT OF THE FRONT OF MY JEEP. THREE FIRE INSPECTORS LOOKED AT IT AND ARE UNABLE TO DETERMINE THE CAUSE OF THE FIRE. HOWEVER, A JEEP MECHANIC ALSO LOOKED AT IT AND BELIEVES THE FIRE STARTED BEHIND THE BATTERY. THE JEEP IS TOTALED. STILL WAITING ON REPORTS FROM THE INSURANCE COMPANY. CYNTHIA I JUST WANTED TO GIVE YOU AN UPDATE. WE DID HIRE SOME PEOPLE WHO WENT OUT AND ALSO WERE NOT ABLE TO FULLY DETERMINE THE FIRE. I AM HAVING A HARD TIME GETTING IN CONTACT WITH CHRYSLER. I WILL KEEP TRYING AND LET YOU KNOW WHAT THEY TELL ME. DEPENDING ON WHAT THEY TELL ME WE MIGHT MOVE FORWARD WITH MORE INVESTIGATION. I WILL KEEP YOU UPDATED. FROM PROGRESSIVE CLAIM #161737586 AGENT AMY ETTA PH. 503-495-4507
