2015 JEEP PATRIOT Complaints

My truck goes into a code where the electric throttle control light, the engine light, and the tire traction light comes on. When the vehicle does this it reduces the speed to 35 no matter what or where you are. When you ho get the engine light checked, the code says it's a suction problem ??. Jeep started doing this in the colder weather than progressed to every other week

THE SPEED SENSORS IN THE REAR WHEEL HUBS ARE HELD ON WITH A THIN WIRE CLIP. THIS RUSTS AWAY VERY QUICKLY AND THE SENSOR FALLS OUT. THEN THE BRAKES CAN BE APPLIED WITHOUT THE DRIVER TOUCHING THE BRAKES . THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS AND ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT IN MY CAR AND THE DEALER SAYS THERE IS NO RECALL YET, BUT THERE SHOULD BE..!

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Patriot. The contact stated that air conditioning system was blowing hot air throughout the vehicle. Additionally, there was a coolant leak. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer three times and was diagnosed and the contact was informed that the air compressor unit needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified but no additional assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 43,000.

The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Patriot. The vehicle had previously been serviced at the dealer under a manufacturer Emission Recall Number: U67 (Catalytic Converter Efficiency) however, the failure recurred. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle experienced decreased acceleration. The dealer was made aware of the failure; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was 96,800.

Engine stalls upon acceleration from a dead stop major safety concern. Mechanic says it’s crankshaft sensor which the 2016 Jeep Patriot recall was for the same issue.

While driving the car RPM dropped to zero, I pressed the gas pedal, and RPMs went back to normal engine continued to work. The crank shaft sensor was replaced, it drove for another month (approximately) before it began with the same issue. This time I was driving on the highway (twice). The third time I was on a busy street when it happened with complete loss of power and the stability control light came on. This is so dangerous and could possibly cause an accident. After looking into this issue, I have found that this is not a common occurrence and there is even a recall for this exact reason for the 2016 Jeep Patriots. The vehicle was taken to the local Jeep dealership, and they stated there was no way of knowing what the issue is without the check engine light coming on. I find this hard to believe knowing that there are many instances of this happening and a recall on a newer model for the same thing. They replaced the Crank Shaft Sensor (which had already been replaced) and two cam shaft sensors, replaced the catalytic converter that was recalled and the passenger side seat which had deployed. We were charged nearly $800. This is outrageous considering this is a dangerous issue that has been recalled on the 2016 models. Jan 31, 2023, NHTSA reached out to Ms. Eanes for additional information involving issues of the Crankshaft in the 2015 Jeep Patriot.

I have purchased a 2015 Jeep Patriot from Sunrise car dealer it has been 3 months now I took it back to the dealer they couldn't find anything wrong with it the car cut off in the middle of traffic in the middle of the expressway with a big 18-wheeler behind me scared me to death. I can see why they sold it to me without any warranty. I took it to a car repairment person ran a test on it couldn't find anything wrong with it. No codes were found, we took the car for a ride in the air and the radio didn't cut him off but as soon as I got back in it down the road it cut off again several times before I made it home. Please tell me if I can take the car back and trade it in for another car. Help

I noticed a vibration and it felt like the vehicle was shaking at times. This problem increased at higher speeds. I took it to a dealer for inspection and found out the control arms, tie rods, and ball joints were in critical condition and needed to be replaced. This vehicle has less than 50,000 miles on it.

Two issues- First one the vehicle engine tends to randomly sputter like there is a dead cylinder. Which I have found by adding electric jell to the spark plug connector will make the problem go away for a short time. Second one now in the rear transfer case is marking a grinding noise and is getting louder.

The vehicles rpms drop to zero and then almost stalls out but picks up again and sometimes dies completely and you have to wait to restart the vehicle. No codes are available when it stalls out. It happens almost every day and sometimes multiple times a day
