ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC)
WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE BOTH THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL AND ELECTRON THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHTS COME ON AND I LOSE ACCELERATION. HAVE TO TURN THE VEHICLE OFF, WAIT A MINUTE OR 2 AND RESTART. SOMETIMES THIS WILL HAPPEN 2-6 TIMES DURING A TRIP (DEPENDING HOW FAR I AM DRIVING) OTHER TIMES IT DOESN'T HAPPEN AT ALL. I CAN DRIVE CAR FOR 2-3 WEEKS WITH NO PROBLEMS THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN THESE TWO WARNING LIGHTS COME ON AGAIN. I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY FOR FEAR THIS WILL HAPPEN. THIS HAS ONLY OCCURRED WHILE DRIVING ON CITY STREETS. SOMETIMES THE LIGHTS WILL COME ON WHEN I START THE CAR. THE CAR WILL START IDLING VERY FAST

AIR BAGS, SEAT BELTS
RECEIVED A RECALL NOTICE ON 11/15/16. REPAIR SHOP WHERE CAR WAS PURCHASED ADVISED THEY ARE UNABLE TO ASSIST. CONTACTED THEFCA RECALL CENTER FOR THE MANUFACTURER, WHO ADVISED THAT THEY ARE UNABLE TO REPAIR FOR 90 DAYS PENDING THEIR DETERMINATION OF REPAIR PROCESS FOR ALL AFFECTED VEHICLES. 3 MONTHS IS NOT A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME TO REPAIR SAFETY FEATURES ON A VEHICLE THAT MY 17 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER IS DRIVING. COMPANY SHOULD FIX TIMELY OR PAY FOR RENTAL OR PROVIDE ANOTHER VEHICLE TO DRIVE UNTIL THEY CAN REPAIR IT. THESE KNOWN DEFECTS IN PRIMARY SAFETY FEATURES AND INEFFICIENCIES TO REPAIR ARE UNACCEPTABLE AND PUTS LIVES IN JEOPARDY. SAFETY FEATURES COULD FAIL AND PEOPLE KILLED BY THE TIME THESE ISSUES ARE FIXED. THE SECRETARY SHOULD IMPOSE IMMEDIATE REMEDY REQUIREMENTS.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE
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.
