THE CVT TRANSMISSION OF THIS VEHICLE (2012 JEEP PATRIOT) IS PRONE TO OVERHEATING. THIS OCCURS WHEN TRAVELING FOR A FEW HOURS AT HIGH SPEEDS. I HAVE FOUND THIS TO OCCUR TWICE WHEN TRAVELING AROUND 70 MILES PER HOUR OVER A PERIOD OF 2-3 HOURS. THE CAR'S OVERHEAT LIGHT COMES ON, FOLLOWED BY A STEADY DECREASE IN SPEED AND INABILITY TO ACCELERATE, PRESUMABLY TO PROTECT THE TRANSMISSION FROM FURTHER DAMAGE. IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM FOR THIS VEHICLE, AS CITED BY NUMEROUS CUSTOMERS ON FORUMS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP PATRIOT. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHO REPLACED THE FUEL PUMP, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE MECHANIC, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. ARRIGO DODGE CHRYSLER/JEEP SAWGRASS (5901 MADISON AVE, TAMARAC, FL) AND THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 102,000.

CAR MAKES A WHINING NOISE ONCE IT'S BEEN DRIVING FOR A LITTLE BIT. IT IS IN SYNC WHEN YOU ACCELERATE (WHINES UP WHEN PUSHING GAS, WHINES DOWN WHEN YOU LET GO). IT HESITATES TO ACCELERATE WHICH IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ON THE FREEWAY. ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS I'VE BEEN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AND THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT COMES ON, THE WHINING NOISE CONTINUES AND THE CAR WILL JUST SLOW DOWN AND EVENTUALLY STOP. I'VE HAD TO CROSS MULTIPLE LANES ON THE FREEWAY TO TRY AND GET OVER TO THE SHOULDER SO I DIDN'T BREAK DOWN AND GET HIT RIGHT AWAY. WHEN STARTING THE CAR STARTS EXTREMELY ROUGH AND IS VERY SHAKY. DEALERSHIPS HAVE TOLD ME THE ONLY WAY TO FIX IT IS TO REPLACE THE TRANSMISSION WHICH WILL COST OVER $4,000. THERE ARE PLENTY OF WEBSITES THAT PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING OF THE EXACT SAME ISSUE. IT IS A COMMON ISSUE ACROSS THE BOARD WITH PATRIOTS. THESE NEED TO BE RECALLED, PEOPLE ARE SPENDING THOUSANDS GETTING THEIR TRANSMISSIONS REPLACED BECAUSE THEY ARE BREAKING DOWN ON THE HIGHWAY AND CAUSING ACCIDENTS AND INJURIES.

WHEN I ARRIVED THE DEALERSHIP DIDNT HAVE ME ON THE APPOINTMENT BOOK & ALL THE PARTS WERE NOT IN. MY VEHICLE ISNT DRIVING SMOOTH. THIS PROBLEM SHOULD HAVE BEEN REPAIRED IMMEDIATELY

I BOUGHT A JEEP THRU RANDY WISE DURAND 3 MONTHSS AGO. SINCE BUYING IT IS HAS BEEN RELAIRED W OR 3 TIMES FOR THE ENGINEE RANDOMLY STOPPING WHILE DRIVING. THIS PAST TIME I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY GOING 70 WITH A SEMI BEHIND ME WHEN THE ENGINE FOR NO REASON JUST STOPPED RUNNING. WE WERE ALMOST KILLED BECAUSE THE JEEP WENT FROM 70 TO 0 WITH A SEMI BEHIND US THAT ALMOST SLAMMED US. IT JUST "SHUTS OFF" WHEN IT FEELS LIKE IT. RANDY WISE HAS NOT OFFERED A REPLACEMENT AND CANNOT SEEM TO FIX IT. A WITNESS IS AVAILABLE.

THE TRANSMISSION IN MY 2012 JEEP PATRIOT IS NOT FUNCTIONING PROPERLY. IT DOES NOT ACCELERATE AS IT SHOULD. IT STALLS WHEN I ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE. IT DOES THIS ON CITY STREETS AND HIGHWAYS. IT OVERHEATS ON HILLS AND CAN'T TAKE IT OUT OF TOWN BECAUSE IT'S NOT RELIABLE. THIS DOESN'T MAKE SENSE SINCE THE CAR ONLY HAS 74,000 MILES.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
IT WAS CONFIRMED BY THE DEALERSHIP MY 2012 JEEP PATRIOT BEEN DIAGNOSED WITH AN INTERNAL FUEL TANK FAILURE. MY MANUFACTURER DATE WAS NOV. 2011 AND A RECALL WAS ISSUED IN DEC. 2011 TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK (OF COURSE MY VEHICLE DIDN'T QUALIFY). I DO NOT HAVE $1600 TO REPLACE SOMETHING THAT CHRYSLER SHOULD TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR AND FIX. I HAVE A FEELING THAT THEY KNEW THAT THESE GAS TANKS WERE FAULTY BEFORE DEC. 2011, AND IN ORDER TO NOT HAVE TO REPLACE THEM, THEY TOOK THE EASY AND BARELY ANY MONEY OUT OF THEIR POCKET ROUTE AND DID A RECALL FOR THE TRANSFER HOSE HOPING THAT WOULD CORRECT THE ISSUE WHICH IF THAT'S WHAT THEY THOUGHT, SORRY IT DIDN'T WORK. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THE VEHICLE, LET ALONE TRYING TO PUT GAS IN IT WITH THE GAS PUMP SHUTTING OFF EVERY FEW CENTS. THE ONLY WAY I CAN PUT GAS IN IS BY A VERY SLOW TRICKLE WHICH TAKES ABOUT 10 - 15 MINUTES. WITHIN THE LAST FEW WEEKS, IT'S GETTING EVEN MORE DIFFICULT AS I HEAR THE GAS BACKING UP IN THE FILLER NECK. THE DEALERSHIP WAS NOT ANY HELP OTHER THAN TELLING ME HOW MUCH IT WAS GOING TO COST WITHOUT ANY EXPLANATION AS TO WHY IT HAPPENED. WE NEED HELP IN GETTING CHRYSLER TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED. SOMEONE PLEASE HEAR US AND HELP US AND DO SOMETHING NOW!!!

ON MY WAY TO WORK, MY CAR STALLED 3 TIMES WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT AND ONCE WHILE MOVING. AFTER THE MOVING STALL, MY ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. THE ERROR CODE IS P0339. IT ALSO STALLED TWICE ON MY WAY HOME FROM WORK. IT DIDN'T STALL WHILE I WAS MOVING ON THE SECOND TRIP BECAUSE MY FOOT HAPPENED TO BE ON THE GAS WHEN IT TRIED TO STALL. I FELT THE CAR JERK BACKWARDS THEN RE-ENGAGE THE ENGINE BACK TO WHERE IT WAS BEFORE IT ALMOST STALLED. THE CAR HAD DONE A LITTLE JERK EVERY ONCE IN A WHILE, BUT NOW IT'S MULTIPLE TIMES IN A SINGLE TRIP.

I WAS DRIVING DOWN THE STREET STOPPED AND PROCEEDED TO GO UP THE HILL WHEN I PRESSED ON THE GAS PEDAL IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE SO I PUT IT IN NEUTRAL IT WOULD REV UP BUT WHEN I PUT IT DRIVE IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. SO I HAVE TAKEN IT TO THE MECHANIC TO HAVE IT EVALUATED AND HE SAID THE TRANSMISSION NEEDS TO BE REPLACED IT IS ONLY 7 YEARS OLD I THINK THAT IS CRAZY. FROM ONLINE FORUMS THERE HAVE BEEN QUITE A FEW PATRIOTS THAT HAVE NEEDED NEW TRANSMISSIONS WITH NO AVAIL FROM THE MANUFACTURERS. I AM HOPING FOR A RECALL ON THIS TRANSMISSION SINCE I AM STILL PAYING ON THIS VEHICLE AND CANNOT AFFORD TO BUY ANOTHER AND PAY OUT $4200 FOR A NEW TRANSMISSION.

ENGINE, FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM, VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
AROUND 50000 MILES THE ENGINE STARTED TO STOP ACCELERATING DURING OPERATION. DURING DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY OR CITY STREET (AT ALL SPEEDS) THE ENGINE WOULD BEGIN TO MALFUNCTION WITHOUT WARNING AND THE MAXIMUM SPEED THAT COULD BE MET WAS ABOUT 10MPH WITH GAS FULLY ENGAGED. PULLINGNOVER AND RESTARTING THE VEHICLE WOULD OVERRIDE THIS FOR A SHORT TIME. IT STARTED TO OCCUR MORE FREQUENTLY TO THE POINT I WOULD HAVE TO RESTART MY CAR A APPROXIMATELY 15 TIMES TO MAKE A 9 MILE TRIP TO WORK. HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY AT SPEEDS OF UP TO 65MPH AND ALMOST CAUSED ACCIDENTS SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE I COULD PULL OFF ON TO THE SHOULDER. EVENTUALLY AFTER MONTHS OF THIS OCCURRING AT RANDOM INTERVALS THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING RESULTING IN TOTAL LOSS OF ENGINE POWER AND STEERING ABILITY OF THE VEHICLE THANKFULLY ON A QUIET BACK STREET WHERE I WAS ABLE TO LEAVE IT AFTER PUSHING IT IN NEUTRAL AND HAVE IT TOWED. AFTER SEVERAL MONTHS OF BEING IN THE SHOP AND THOUSANDS OF DOLLARS LATER ITS RUNNING WITH A NEW ENGINE. MULTIPLE FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS WITH THE SAME VEHICLE MODEL MAKE AND YEAR HAVE THIS ISSUE ALL AROUND 50K MILES.

CATALYTIC CONVERTER RECALL IT APPEARS THAT MY 2012 JEEP PATRIOT WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECENT CATALYTIC CONVERTER RECALL OF 2011-2016 JEEP PATRIOTS. YET, MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT PASS PA STATE INSPECTION IN DECEMBER OF 2018 DUE TO THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER AND FAILED EMISSIONS TESTS. AFTER PAYING $1200 TO GET MY CATALYTIC CONVERTER REPAIRED IN DECEMBER, FCA IS NOW ISSUING A RECALL IN MARCH ON ALL 2011-2016 JEEP PATRIOTS? EXCEPT MINE? WHY? FUTHERMORE, FCA CANADA WAS AWARE OF THE PROBLEM AND ISSUED A RECALL ON THE SAME VEHICLES BACK IN 2018. WHY WAS FCA AMERICA SO SLOW TO ISSUE A RECALL? I WANT TO BE REIMBURSED FOR THE MONEY (I'M NOT A LARGE CORPORATION WITH BILLIONS OF DOLLARS) I PUT OUT FOR REPAIRS TO A VEHICLE THAT SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED SOONER AND WERE CAUSED BY FCA'S ATTEMPTS TO SAVE MONEY AND CIRCUMVENT THE EPA'S EMISSIONS AND SAFETY STANDARDS. THEREBY JEOPARDIZING THE HEALTH AND SAFETY OF HARD WORKING HONEST AMERICANS.

UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY WHEN I LOST POWER TO THE VEHICLE. FORTUNATELY, TRAFFIC WAS NOT HEAVY AND I WAS ABLE TO DRIFT OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I HAD TWO PASSENGERS AND WE WERE ABLE TO PUSH IT OFF TO THE SIDE SO WE WERE AS FAR OFF THE ROAD AS POSSIBLE. TIME WAS APPROXIMATELY 8PM ON MARCH 2, 2019. THIS IS AT LEAST THE 3RD INCIDENT WE HAVE HAD WITH THIS VEHICLE WITH THIS SAME PROBLEM. I BELIEVE THERE WAS A 4TH BUT I WILL HAVE TO VERIFY THAT WITH MY WIFE WHO IS OUT OF TOWN AND I HAVE NOT TALKED TO HER YET THIS MORNING. IT IS HER CAR AND I WAS USING IT. I BELIEVE THE FIRST INCIDENT OCCURRED IN THE SUMMER OF 2015 WHEN MY SON WAS DRIVING IT. WHILE MY SON WAS WAITING TO BE TOWED HE TRIED STARTING THE CAR AFTER 20 MINUTES AND IT DID START. HE LET THE TOW TRUCK AND DEALERSHIP KNOW THAT AND PROCEEDED ON HIS WAY WITHOUT INCIDENT. THE DEALERSHIP HAS LOOKED AT THE INCIDENT WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN AND THEY SAY THEIR COMPUTER IS NOT REGISTERING THE PROBLEM SO THEREFORE IT MUST NOT EXIST. OUR MECHANIC HAS LOOKED AT IT AND HE BELIEVES IT IS A THROTTLE BODY SENSOR AND FOR SOME REASON THE VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN WHEN IT THINKS IT'S TOO HOT AND UPON SITTING IT COOLS DOWN AND THUS STARTS. HOWEVER, WE SAT FOR ABOUT AN HOUR BEFORE THE TOW TRUCK ARRIVED ON MARCH 2, 2019 AND I WAS UNABLE TO START THE VEHICLE. I HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THAT IS WHERE IT IS NOW. I AM NOT A MECHANIC SO MY EXPLANATION OF WHAT IS CAUSING THE PROBLEM MAY NOT BE TOTALLY ACCURATE. WHAT I DO KNOW IS THAT HAD THIS HAPPENED WHEN TRAFFIC WAS HEAVY I MAY NOT BE ALIVE TODAY TO BE REPORTING THIS RECURRING PROBLEM.

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM
GAS PUMP KEEPS CLICKING OFF WHEN FUELING. MECHANIC TESTED EVAP SYSTEM AND STATED VEHICLE NEEDS A NEW FUEL TANK. THE JEEP HAS 62,000 MILES ON IT AND HAS BEEN WELL MAINTAINED. THIS IS AN UNUSUAL REPAIR AND IS EXTREMELY HIGH IN COST. I BELIEVE THIS SHOULD BE INCLUDED AND COVERED WITH THE OTHER FUEL TANK RECALLS ON JEEP PATRIOTS.
