• Desiccated air bag inflator rupture investigation as of 20210917

  From 2000 through 2017, takata produced millions of air bag inflators using two types of phase-stabilized ammonium nitrate ("psan") propellant -- propellant 2004 and propellant 2004l. After prolonged exposure to high temperature cycles and humidity, inflators using propellant 2004 can degrade, causing the propellant to burn too quickly when ignited. The rapid burning can cause the inflator to rupture during deployment, potentially causing serious or even fatal injury to vehicle occupants. See 2016 blomquist report at www.Nhtsa.Gov/sites/nhtsa.Gov/files/documents/expert_report-hrblomquist.Pdf.Consequently, all frontal inflators using propellant 2004 that do not contain a "desiccant" (a substance that traps and holds moisture) in us vehicles are under recall. These "non-desiccated" inflators either have been or are required to be replaced.In some cases, the remedy part for these recalled inflators was, or will be, an inflator using either propellant 2004 or 2004l that does contain a desiccant. None of these "desiccated" remedy parts (which were installed in older model year vehicles) are currently under recall for a degradation concern. Certain subsets of desiccated psan inflators using propellant 2004 for use as original equipment, however, have been recalled for a degradation concern. All takata inflators produced with propellant 2004l contain desiccant, and none of these desiccated inflators using propellant 2004l are under recall for a degradation concern. There have been no reported field ruptures in any non-recalled desiccated psan inflators.It is understood that desiccants fully saturate at some threshold, at which point any additional moisture will not be captured. This means the degradation process observed in non-desiccated inflators using propellant 2004 may also occur in non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004, assuming additional moisture enters the inflator and high temperature cycling occurs. Based on available information, desiccant saturation can occur within the first five years in the worst environments, and the time required for full saturation is affected by multiple factors. While no present safety risk has been identified, further work is needed to evaluate the future risk of non-recalled desiccated inflators using propellant 2004.Three entities -- takata (now known as tk global), the independent testing coalition, and exponent -- have been studying the long-term behavior of takata desiccated psan inflators using propellant 2004l (as well as 2004) in the presence of moisture and temperature cycling. The research efforts, which include development of predictive modeling techniques and field sample analysis, are ongoing. To date, none of the researchers have identified field evidence showing that propellant 2004l is undergoing a degradation process that leads to aggressive deployment and potential rupture. However, the time in service of such inflators remains short compared to that of the inflators using propellant 2004. Further study is needed to assess the long-term safety of desiccated inflators using propellant 2004l.The office of defects investigation is opening this investigation to examine whether a safety defect related to propellant degradation exists in non-recalled desiccated psan frontal inflators manufactured by takata. This investigation will require extensive information on takata production processes and surveys of inflators in the field. Lists of recall actions that may have used desiccated psan inflators as remedy parts, as well as the makes and models originally manufactured with them, is available with the downloadable version of this document (see nhtsa.Gov/recalls?Nhtsaid=ea21002 -- note this information is subject to change/revision as the investigation proceeds). This investigation does not supersede ea15-001, which remains open.

• Engine stall, fuel delivery failure investigation as of 20121015

  In a letter dated april 3, 2013, chrysler group llc submitted a defect information report (dir) to nhtsa identifying a safety defect in the fuel delivery system in approximately 20,532 model year (my) 2012 jeep patriot (11,624) and compass (8,908) vehicles manufactured from october 18, 2011 through may 7, 2012 and equipped with certain fuel tanks produced between october 18, 2011 and january 26, 2012 (recall 13v-120).According to chrysler, jeep patriot and compass vehicles equipped with saddle type fuel tanks built during the affected period may experience low siphoning rate through the transfer tube from the secondary to the primary side of the fuel tank.Chryslers investigation determined that a material change by the transfer tube supplier (ti automotive) led to malformed tubes being shipped to the final tank assembly supplier (kautex).The malformed transfer tubes may make the siphoning process more difficult to start and maintain under certain operating conditions.Sustained driving during this condition may deplete fuel in the primary side of the fuel tank and lead to engine stall without warning.Kautex established a 100% sort on january 26, 2012 as a countermeasure for the malformed tubes being used in production.Chrysler is able to trace fuel tank build dates by vehicle identification number and recall 13v-120 only includes vehicles equipped withsaddle tanks made during the affected period.Approximately 97 percent of the recalled patriot vehicles (11,277 out of 11,624) were from october 18, 2011 through january 26, 2012.Chrysler determined that a few suspect tanks were used on vehicles produced as late as may 7, 2012 and is including any such vehicles in the recall.The office of defects investigation (odi) analyzed complaint data provided by chrysler as well as complaints submitted to odi from consumers to identify stalling incidents related to fuel delivery.Odis analysis identified a total of 64 engine stall incidents related to fuel delivery, all of which involved patriot 4x4 vehicles equipped with saddle type fuel tanks.The patriot 4x4 vehicles account for a little over half of the subject vehicle population (59,783 vehicles).Forty-nine (49) of the incidents involved the approximately 11,277 patriot 4x4 vehicles that were built from october 18, 2011 and january 26, 2012 and equipped with tanks from the period associated with the transfer tube material change.This equates to a complaint rate of 434.5 incidents per 100,000 vehicles sold.Fifteen (15) fuel delivery related engine stalls were identified in the remaining 48,506 patriot 4x4 vehicles, resulting in a complaint rate of 30.9 incidents per 100,000 vehicles.The rate in the non-recalled patriot 4x4 vehicles increases to 68.0 incidents per 100,000 vehicles if stalls with no-restart and unknown cause are added to the analysis.The patriot front-wheel drive vehicles are equipped with single reservoir fuel tanks and are not affected by the saddle-tank fuel delivery issue.Owners of the recalled vehicles will be notified to take their vehicle to a jeep dealer, who will replace the fuel tank transfer tube to prevent any incidents related to this issue. Chrysler will begin notifying dealers and owners in may 2013. This preliminary evaluation is closed.The odi reports cited above can be viewed at www-odi.Nhtsa.Dot.Gov/owners/searchnhtsaid under the following identification numbers (odi nos.): 10481572, 10481452, 10481279, 10481254, 10481222, 10481141, 10481126, 10481110, 10501057, 10478934, 10472705, 10470121, 10468517, 10467488, 10466357, 10464745, 10464449, 10464135, 10462338, 10459383, 10421019, 10410937, 10481392.

Took jeep patriot to firestone service center for full inspection. Upon completion of inspection was told by the tech that my vehicle had severe underbody rust/ rot and that the front and rear crossmembers needed to be replaced among many other components needed repair/replaced such as complete brake job, cv axles, gas tank bracket and two seized lug/studs. Apparently, fca has a warranty extension called x69 bulletin that repairs the crossmembers for rust/rot but it is only for vehicles manufactured before 24 january 2012. My vehicle was manufactured on may 2012. This is unacceptable. It is clear that this issue was not rectified for vehicles manufactured after 24 january 2012 and this issue should be subject to a full recall and not a narrow warranty extension. Broken/compromised crossmembers could result at a minimum of vehicle destruction and serious injury to driver/passengers and a maximum loss of life due to this manufacturing defect. The nhtsa should act accordingly and force fca to start a recall immediately.

Fiat chrysler notified me by letter of campaign x86 for inadvertent active head restraint "deployments". But all they did was extend the warranty for repairs in the event of a deployment. I am scared to death that i will get unexpectedly punched in the back of my head while driving. I drive narrow mountain roads and a lot of two lane highways where one mistake can be fatal. My cervical stenosis may also result in a horrific neck injury. My wife also is unlikely to survive a deployment without injury, being less robustly-built than me. Fiat chrylsler should replace the defective part before others get hurt. Nhtsa should tell fiat chrysler to issue a safety recall.

After heavy rain or car wash, water pours out of map lights into the radio and gear shifter. It is dangerous/distracting while driving and i'm afraid it will eventually cause electronics and the jeep's main computer to fail. While turning, the water will soak the driver or passenger suddenly depending in which direction the turn was made. The vehicle was taken to the dealership on two occasions to identify the problem and fix the issue. A video of it happening was shown to them so there would be no misunderstandings and to help them see the problem. Both times the dealership said they fixed the problem, however, it still leaks.

I had my check engine light come on. I went to auto zone and had them run a quick dx check to see why the engine light came on. The code that came up reported an issue with my gas cap or fuel sensor. I am not able to pump gas into my vehicle without the pump shutting off continuously; when pumping my gas i have to hold the pumps lever and it will still lose pressure and shut off. I have to pump very slowly in order to fill up my vehicle. When going down the highway i can feel a surge in my acceleration and i have noticed issues in being able to pick up speed. I also started to have an issue with a loud clicking when turning on my heat or ac. I started looking in the problems more on jeepscares forums. I saw various reports on both issues, on one of the posts they encouraged anyone having issues with the fuel sensor to report the problem to nhtsa.

I have a 2012 jeep patriot and this keeps happening more and more frequently. Just today it happened twice within 15 minutes so i pull over, put it in neutral and wait for it turn off to do the same thing 15 minutes later. Luckily i am able to get to an exit and not having to pull over on the highway but this is getting ridiculous. The transmission coolant light will stay on and then the car lose the power. Glad i am not the only one having the problem

While driving my engine randomly shuts off and my wheel locks. After it does so the car won't start back up. When it finally does and i get the car into park, the car shuts back off and it repeatedly does so until it won't start at all and i have to wait 15-39 minutes for it to start up and drive normal. This happens more than 5 or 10 mines on a daily basis. It happens on highways, city streets, it even shuts off when i'm not in motion. It doesn't matter what speed i'm going or if i'm increasing or decreasing my speed. It shuts off when ever and where ever.

Car stalls at every stop. While driving high way speeds for a few minutes it drops down in speed causing you close call accidents because it is very sudden. If i drive the jeep and come to a complete stop regardless if at stop sign red light or behind traffic the car will turn off having me to turn the key in off position and put it in park to start it again. If i am on the highway driving i can be going 45 mph and all of sudden the jeep starts declining in its acceleration and will not go above 10mph. Also when initially starting up if i have to back up it turns off while in the middle of backing up. This issue is been known to happen to a few people who i know that own the same exact jeep or the 2013 model. Also have had it checked out and only thing that pops up is a code for the gas cap which i have replaced and still pops the code for it

2012 jeep patriot 4 x 4 takes 20 minutes to fill gas tank due to faulty valve. Had the dealership run diagnostic tests today and they tell me a new gas tank is the only fix due to a problem with a valve inside the tank....They called it a "flapper" and an "inlet check valve". Talked to jeep and to two dealerships and no one wants to take any responsibility for this issue. I also found the following technical service bulletin which extends the gas system warranty on a number of makes/models for this very same issue, but the jeep patriot is not included - tsb 14-001-09 rev.A this is extremely frustrating and dangerous.

A few months ago my vehicle started to randomly stall and jerk. We thought nothing of it. Then a few weeks ago my engine light came on and a warning that something was wrong with the fuel cap. A few days later all of that stopped coming on. Yesterday as i was pulling out of my neighborhood several lights came on for the stability control and the electrical throttle light came on as well. I was going up a hill and my vehicle barely made it up the hill. I got back to my driveway turned it off and tried again and it was the same issue. I've made an appointment at the dealership to find out the problem, but this came out of no where. I haven't tried to drive the vehicle for safety reasons.

Jeep stalls out on road. Could only go 20 mph after restarting

Jeep stalls out on road. Could only go 20 mph after restarting

When in idle at a traffic light, the jeep engine shut off randomly with a beeping alarm and red flashing bolt on the dash, required me to turn the key to the off position and restart the car, this has also happened once while vehicle was in motion. Battery is new and both the battery and alternator tested good. When accelerating, braking, or steering, the cabin lights, headlights and dash/radio dim or brighten often slight flickering and some times the interior roof cab lights randomly turn on while driving even when no door is ajar and dimmer switch is turned down or completely off. Appears there is some sort of electrical short or power draw issue. The rear drum breaks continuously squeal, leak and leave rust residue corroding the rims even though i've had them maintained and changed by certified goodyear mechanics

Two years ago i had nielsen jeep in east hanover, nj perform the air bag recall. My jeep patriot had 100,000 on it. I never had the air bag light come on. Immediately after they did the recall, the air bag light would come on and off. I returned the jeep to them three times and they stated that they corrected the problem, i just brought jeep in on 12/18/19 and they said i now need a new passenger side air bag at a cost of $1,800.00! They charged me $150.00 to diagnose the system.

The gas tank can not be filled at the gas pump without reducing the flow to the minimum level. As a result it take 20 minutes to put 10 gallons in the gas tank. This is dangerous late at night or in bad weather. This issue started in october and is getting worse.

My 2012 jeep patriot 4wd 2.4l is around 106,000 miles. About 2 months ago, i was pumping gas and i noticed it was only pumping about 75 cents at a time before stopping. I thought it was a faulty pump but soon began to realize it happened everywhere! My check engine light also comes every now and then, warning me that the catalytic converter is faulty. So i found the recalls for both of these problems which include 2012 patriots, yet they say my car is not covered by the recall. Seriously? The only recall that is covered for my car is 16v-668 which is the occupant restraint. Why are the other problems that are popping up with everyone not covered?

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. While refueling the vehicle, the fuel sensor indicated that the fuel level was full; however, when the fuel nozzle was pulled back, the vehicle was able to receive additional fuel. There were no warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was taken to dick's country chrysler jeep dodge (767 sw baseline st, hillsboro, or 97123), but the cause of the failure was not determined. The contact was informed that the fuel tank could be replaced. The vehicle was currently at the dealer for repairs. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and did not assist. The failure mileage was approximately 47,000.

While driving or in a parked position while the engine runs, the rpm needle drops to zero 0 and my car doesn't accelerate when pressing the gas pedal. There are times i am on the highway and rpm drops to zero 0 and i have to pull over on the shoulders. I would have to put the car in park, and shut my car off for extra minutes or more before i can fully restart it. If i try turning the car on before the 2 minutes it would take a longer time to restart. This is very dangerous because the car shut off when i'm at the stop light, in the middle of the highway. When making a turn, and the rpm needle drops to zero 0, my steering wheel becomes so stiff/harden and is very very difficult to complete the turn.

Repeated problems with the cvt transmission overheating during normal driving, loss of power and suddenly unable to accelerate after stopping at intersection. This is an ongoing problem with the jeep cvt's, and is a safety concern regarding the sudden nature of the problem occuring while driving normally.

2012 jeep patriot 4wd the catalytic converter recall includes 2012 jeep patriot front wheel drive vehicles; however, my four wheel drive vehicle is experiencing this same issue. My jeep should be covered under the recall. This is a safety concern that needs to be addressed. I did not even know this was a recall until it was too late. This malfunction caused my check engine light to come on while in motion on a city road, and it should be fixed by dodge/chrysler/jeep immediately.*pm

Car wouldn't start one month ago. It wouldn't even turn after 3 attempts. After 10 minutes it started right up and had been normal. Today, 9/15/19, my car started up fine but 2 minutes into driving at 20mph my car lost all power. I was driving through my work parking lot driving in a forward motion. Several lights lit up in my dashboard prior to losing power. I was fortunate enough to not be on the freeway. I put my car in brake and restarted it. It started right up, but now has check engine light displayed. My battery is a few months old. I've tested it and it's charged. I'm afraid to drive my car and consider it not in a drivable state. If my car were to die on the freeway that would be a very dangerous situation. Car defect that caused this is unknown. .

My son is driving on the freeway at 70mph during the summer and all of a sudden, his car literally decelerates. He goes from 70mph to 20mph immediately. This has happened 3 times this summer, 4 times last summer (i have posted before), and multiple times in 2017 (everytime he comes home from college in the summer!). This last time it happened at the beginning of this month (sept), he was almost rear-ended and then almost sideswiped. The dealerships can't duplicate this problem (he's been to two different dealerships), but jeep knows there is an issue (there are numerous complaints). The car shows no signs of overheating and gives no notice that there is a problem. Once he has sat along the side of the freeway for 1/2 to 1 hour, he can start his car and drive again. When is jeep going to recognize there is an issue? We have paid to have transmission fluid changed - didn't help. I see that a dealership elsewhere with someone else who had had the same problem figured it out and said that it was the internal oil pump of the transmission that was malfunctioning and causing the overheats. My car is still under warranty and i need to get this fixed before it isn't in december. Please help. Jeep isn't doing anything.

My car stalled after being parked for 45 min. In a parking lot of a local store, as i attempted to back out of the space. I restarted it and as i tried to back out, while moving only a foot or so, it stalled again. It made no sound at all while turning the key, but all the electronics worked, ie. Lights, windows, radio, etc. It would not restart, after multiple attempts, i left it there over night and the next day it restarted, and i drove it for about a couple of minutes to the end of the lot where it stalled again while moving about 5 mph. It would not restart, so i had it towed to a shop where a friend works. They could not find the cause, but did get a code for the ecu/ecm. I don't know what number the error code was, but they don't do those types of repairs. It remains in their lot at this time as i try to figure out my next step. It is a jeep patriot sport (2.4 l) automatic with only 17,500 actual miles.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. While driving approximately 55 mph, the vehicle lost acceleration and the transmission warning indicator flashed. The contact coasted the vehicle to the shoulder and turned it off for approximately 15 minutes. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who diagnosed that the transmission failed and needed replacement. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer for diagnostic testing. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The approximate failure mileage was 135,000.

'tamara recall' while driving engine will just die losing power steering, once stopped it may or may not restart causing traffic jam

The transmission overheat light illuminates on hot muggy days and the vehicle goes in limp mode. The dealer has changed radiator, water pump, thermostat, transmission fluid,catalytic converter, oxygen sensors and gas cap. As the check engine light has also illuminated. No codes are in system for the transmission light so the dealer says they cannot find issue. Called chrysler customer service and they were worthless indicating if the dealer cannot find the issue they cannot do anything. This issue has been reported many times to chrysler on other vehicles with no response from chrysler. Vehicle is unsafe to drive with this condition. It has 106k. On odometer

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. While operating the vehicle, the odor of fuel was present inside the cabin. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The local dealer and manufacturer were not notified. The failure mileage was 106,200.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. While driving various speeds, the vehicle stalled while depressing the accelerator pedal without warning. The contact pulled over and the vehicle resumed normal operation once it was restarted. The contact's friend used a code detector that determined that the throttle was defective. The manufacturer and dealer were not contacted. The contact associated the failure with nhtsa campaign number: 13v120000 (fuel system, gasoline). The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was approximately 90,000.

Vehicle will die during driving. Causing everything to not function correctly. Until it is able to be restarted.

Front and rear subframe of the jeep has bad corrosin, jeep only has 80,000 miles on it. It is pass the warranty coverage, why is this not a recall?

2 incidents same day. Vehicle in motion, lost of control, poor response of steering wheel, brakes not responding, engine and/or electrical system not working properly. Engine cutting off. Tipm problem. Esc and engine lights on. Sounds of car surging. No acceleration in some cases and uphill in particular. We could have got killed if it had happened on the highway for sure.

I have an issue with jeep patriot with 62000 miles on it the is a whinning sound under my jeep while in motion/running and it starts at 35 mph in the even in a highway and in a street. As common a concerned with this type of compact suv is transmission problem. Please conduct an investigation to address this issue. Thank you

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.

I replace a transmission through the jeep dealership now i am having problem again with the tranny it stalls . I have to cut it off to restart it for it to have power to pull off.

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.

I recently learned of the recalls for my vehicle after i had bought it. I am having a similar issue as described for the recalled fuel system issues. I don't know if it was ever fixed in my vehicle or even if the vehicle was checked for it.

Vehicle loses acceleration. This tends to happen more when on a hill or small incline but does happen repeatedly when just accelerating on flat surfaces as well. This feels like a stutter or loss of acceleration. I have had the throttle body replaced, spark plugs & coils & tcm but the issue is still there. This is a cvt transmission.

I have been trying almost 2 months to get my vehicle recall service. Problem the dealership does not have the part in to correct the problem. Everytime i am told to call back next this is terrible service the recall is for emission recall- catalytic converter efficiency i scheduled an appointment for recall service last week for 5/17/19. 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

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.

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.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. While driving 70 mph, the rpms increased on their own and the vehicle began to stall without warning. The contact had to pull over. Once the vehicle was restarted, it resumed normal operation. The contact drove the vehicle to an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing and a code related to the transmission appeared. The contact took the vehicle to be serviced by several independent mechanics; however, the failure continued. After the recent failure, the mechanic stated that only jeep could repair the failure because it was a programming issue. The contact called station chrysler jeep of mansfield (91 chauncy st, mansfield, ma 02048, 508-339-3400) and was informed to bring the vehicle in to be assessed. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to nhtsa. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was unknown.

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.

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!!!

Hello my name is [xxx] i had my vehicle worked on for the last recall i had on my vehicle com # [xxx] which is a 2012 jeep patriot latitude 4ad 2.4l recall. U67 i had no engine lights on my dash.

Literally in a lost and confused this is a some thing that was not normal and my vehicle paid the price.

Takata recall. My airbag light in my patriot jeep had recall and i took it in to the dealership on stevens creek blvd. In san jose, ca for repairs. However, my light started going on and off, stopped ,now it stays on permanently. I have not been involved in an accident. I have called the dealership to inquired about it, and each time i am sent to a voicemail, and i leave a message but they never return my calls. I finally inquired at the dealership in gilroy, ca, but they stated that i would need to,pay the $195 just to check it. I explained it was never fixed correctly. I attempted calling the stevens creek chrysler/jeep dealership, but was sent to voicemail again by the person answering the phone. The airbag light never goes off.

Car is unable to transfer to higher gears. Error code P0730 and P0777. 84k miles. Two shops stating new transmission needed.

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.

The tipm completely went out when driving which filled the jeep with smoke and started to burn very dangours had no power at all had to have towed stopped in the middle of the road

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.

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.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. While the vehicle was being refueled at a fuel station, the fuel pump clicked off before enough fuel entered the vehicle. The failure recurred at different fuel stations. One attendant attempted to fill up the tank manually, but was unsuccessful. There was no warning indicator illuminated. The dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The failure mileage was not provided.

My 2012 jeep patriot while driving on the highway started to decelerate from 65 mph to 30 mph very quickly. I had to cross three lanes of traffic to pull off the highway. The temperature light for the transmission came on but went out after a few minutes of having the car idle. This was the only warning light on. This happened twice more after driving for more than an hour. I brought the car to the dealer along with a picture of the warning light and was told they were unable to say what the problem was because there was no code stored on the computer. I then took it to a local mechanic who also said there was no code to work from but had experience in dealing with what i described and said it was the transmission and that this was a common problem with the cvt transmissions that jeep had used. He said this was pretty common knowledge among mechanics and they are waiting to se if jeep will do a recall or fix the problem. As of now a new transmission is $4500.00 plus cost of a rental car for more than a week since the dealership can't seem to have them delivered in less than 7 business days. Not only is this basically fraud for knowingly selling defective products but a safety hazard to all drivers on our highways with the sudden deceleration of the vehicle taking chances with all of our lives when it could be prevented.

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.

Engine stalls while driving. The traction control lights appears when engine stalls. It may restart after about 15 minutes. This reoccurs randomly. After it starts back up the check engine light appears.

The vehicle shuts off while driving. The battery is fine however i lose all power. It is as if there is no fuel even though i have a ful tank. The traction light comes on along with the check engine light. I roll to a stop and let the jeep sit then turn the key and it starts right up. There is no warning or indication when it will ovcur. The check engine light will disappear after driving for a time and so i am told there is no code to be pulled. Im stuck driving a machine that may or may not try to end me. Tons of people have had a similar issue however my vin does not seem to be included in the recall.

When i was at the gas station, fuel pump kept shutting off. I took to the dealership. The problem is the rollover vent valve on top of the fuel tank does not open to release air. They told me i had to replace the whole tank and their estimation is more than $1800 before the tax. I see the same problem people filed here. The repair should be on the manufacturer side instead of customers.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. While the contact's vehicle was stopped and making a left turn, an approaching vehicle ran a stop sign. The other vehicle crashed head on into the driver's side of the contact's vehicle. None of the frontal air bags deployed. There were no injuries and a police report was filed. The other driver's insurance company settled and paid for the body repairs. The air bags were not diagnosed or repaired. After the body repairs, the brake, check engine, and air bag indicators illuminated. Eventually, all the instrument panel gauges illuminated. The dealer (beck chevrolet buick gmc, 1601 reid st, palatka, fl 32177, (386) 227-5222) did not assist, but offered to sell the contact a new vehicle. The vehicle was included in nhtsa campaign number: 16v668000 (seat belts, air bags). The failure mileage was 29,000. The vin was unknown.

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.

Issue is i cannot fuel tank due to fuel tank valve stuck. I just had the esim replaced because that was what the dealer said was the issue. Problem wasn't resolved and now i have to replace fuel tank. I saw where there were other vehicles experiencing this same issue and were recalled.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. The contact stated that the vehicle lost power and stalled while driving. An unknown warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was pushed to the contact's home. The dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that they would call the contact back. The failure mileage was 77,000. The vin was unknown.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. While driving various speeds, the engine stalled without warning. The failure occurred numerous times. The vehicle was taken to electra auto sales & service (42 putman pike, johnston, ri 02919, 401-232-2090). The contact was informed that the mechanic performed a complete engine tune up, test drove the vehicle, and was able to duplicate the failure; however, the repair did not correct the failure. The engine continued to stall while driving various speeds. The manufacturer was contacted. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 84,295.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. After the contact filled up the vehicle with fuel and while driving at unknown speeds, the vehicle stalled. Also, the check engine indicator illuminated. The local dealer was not contacted. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, but did not assist. The failure mileage was 78,000.

Front control arms and/or bushings have gone bad, before 72k miles. Causes steering instability and excessive tire wear. Dozens of other reports of this same problem for this same make/model are easily found online. This is obviously a manufacturing defect, and it merits a recall.

When fueling, gas pump shuts off after ~1pint, must wait to drain down, another pint click off, drain down, another pint, wait to drain down- takes about 15 minutes to fill tank. Engine stutters on acceleration, rpm's drop 500-1000, probably fuel delivery related. All coils, plugs, filters replaced, injectors cleaned.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. The contact stated that while driving at high outdoor temperatures, the transmission overheated warning light illuminated. The vehicle failed to exceed 30 mph. Additionally, there was an abnormal whining sound coming from the transmission. A & b motors inc (30007 gratiot ave, roseville, mi 48066, (586)445-1600) recommended a transmission flush and that the transmission should be replaced. The contact was provided an estimate of $5,000 for the transmission replacement. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 92,000.

When i try to put gasoline in my car, the pump keeps shutting off. This is very frustrating. I have tried different gasoline stations. Had this problem before, but now it is worse every time i try to put fuel in the tank. I contacted the dealer, they told me no recall for for my jeep.

I bought my car as a second hand with the airbag light on and the dealer told me it's a recall that jeep has to fix. I took it to the dealership that specializes in jeep's and they couldn't fix it . Is there any way i can get helped ?

Valve in filler neck will not allow fuel to enter tank.

As several other 2012 jeep patriot 4x4 owners have noted, it takes me forever to fill my tank - pump keeps clicking off. This started at about 70,00 miles - i now have 80,00 miles on it. Of course my vehicle, which i purchased new, was not part of the recall to replace the faulty fuel tank transfer tube. Even if i pay out of pocket to have this repaired i know this is not the real problem as others have noted - it is a problem with the gas tank vent system which would necessitate the replacement of the whole gas tank. C'mon chrysler, please admit this is a problem and do the right thing. If not, i will not be purchasing any future chrysler vehicles.

Transmission overheated going 60 miles per hour on the interstate. I pulled over and let the light go off per the user manual and didn't drive it anymore. Put it in the shop on monday and it needs a brand new transmission with only 119k miles on it!

When the vehicle slowed down and waited at intersection or middle lane, the engine shuts off by itself. When it is restarted, the power is back either immediately or after a few minutes. I read online and many many customers reported this problem, ranging from very new jeep patriot (less than 10,000 miles) to driving at high speed. The links are shown below: http://www.Carproblemzoo.Com/jeep/patriot/automatic-transmission-control-module-problems.Php https://www.Jeeppatriot.Com/forum/5-jeep-patriot-general-discussion/92388-help-engine-shut-down.Html when i took it to the dealer, they can not figure out the causes. The last time, they said it is the transmission control module issue. Since so many customers reported this issue, this vehicle needs a recall. The unexpected shutoff is very dangerous.

I was driving down a interstate with my infant son in the back of the car when it shut off on me including dash lights and radio. I was fortunate to get it off the side of the road safely. I took it to a jeep dealership and they advised that my tipm went bad. This is a major safety concern. I did read newer jeeps were having the same issue.

Driving on the frwy car turned off and would not turn back on , from then in it has has trouble starting light signals trip . I've been stranded with no crank. Took it to several mechanics all whom saynits a faulty tpim . With a $1000 or more fix.

The transmission temperature gauge has come on when traveling at normal highway speeds, causing an immediate loss of power and requiring me to pull over and let the engine cool down. 2 jeep dealerships have assessed the vehicle in the days after the incidents, neither of which could offer any remedy. Both dealerships' service managers mentioned that these vehicles' transmissions are often problematic and do not handle high temperatures well, but with no active recall, neither could offer any recourse or even a remedy. This is clearly a case of a poorly engineered product (the jatco cvt) that the manufacturer is avoiding dealing with, at the expense and safety of its consumers. In fact, jeep no longer uses this transmission - they replaced it in 2014 - clearly they knew there was a problem. This issue is a blatant safety hazard and needs to be investigated more thoroughly and the manufacturer held to account for the unsafe conditions they know their consumers are in. Unacceptable!!!

The engine is randomly stalling. It stalled the other day at the highway and keeps randomly doing it without any warning. I have to pull over every time and wait a couple of minutes to turn it on. It seems by reading this has been reported for the same model multiple times.

Car stalls out going down the road. Car most recently starts and dies right after. We are getting fuel.

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.

Interstate 44 st. Roberts missouri speed limit 70 miles an hour amber transmission warning light indicates overheating karzan reduce the speed to 40 miles an hour on the interstate. Jeep is aware of this due to a defect and the design of the cvt transmission. Will not be repair tell recall ordered by government

I was stopped at a stoplight turning right the light turned green i went to go and my jeep patriot started hesitating in the middle of the intersection and it took a few minutes to get up to speed i have had the problem multiple times but the dealership couldn't recreate the problem so they couldn't tell me a salutation brought it in 3 times now when i go to speed up to flow of traffic coming off the on ramp my transmission makes a howling noise and it is slow to get up to speed

I was driving my 2012 jeep patriot down a regular street and it suddenly slowed down and dash lights went on. The electronic throttle control system light went on along with the check engine light and traction control light.

Takata recall my catcaylic converter went bad its not working due to failure and vehicle will stall and not go backward are forward. I here its a a recall for this.

Purchased from a used car dealership /01/2018 and the first time i went to put gas in the tank it kept cutting off rapidly not allowing me to fill it quickly.I took it to the local jeep dealer for help and they diagnosed it needed a new fuel tank. At the cost of 1300.00+ dollars. The fuel neck had previously been replaced but this was not the problem. Now i am stuck with this as i can not afford to fix it.

It always happens while on the freeway. After a chokehold hours of driving, gas tank is fine, my cause shuts off, unable to accel and no function to increase speed. I have to then pull to the side and wait for it to "cool down." this has happened 3 times. Last time it happened i had only been driving for 1 hr and the transmission temp. Warning light came on.

The vehicle was in motion, rear driver side tire would not roll correctly and was making a noise under the hood. It was towed to a repair shop and after running diagnostic testing found that the cvt transmission, drive shaft joint and transmission cooler had to be replaced. Per the repair shop "the transmission had catastrophic failure" at 96,986k miles and without any advanced warning i had no choice but to agree to have a rebuilt transmission, drive shaft and cooler be installed because mine could not be repaired. The only thing they could salvage was the transfer case which was thought to have been the issue but the diagnostic testing found that was ok. Three weeks it is finally fixed and appears to be working fine.

After filling up with gas, my car starts to "buck" and has bad acceleration even while driving 70 down the freeway. It continues this problem until i have only 1/4 tank of gas and even goes beyond that. I'm starting to have problems with the car starting also and it smells badly of gas fumes.

Intake manifold system: the intake manifold is causing the vehicle to stall and turn off while driving. Difficultly starting the vehicle and poor gas mileage.

I went to the chrysler dealership to replace an orc module s61 that was recalled. They replaced the part but right as i was leaving the delearship, my airbag light came on. I called the dealership to let them know because i had to pick up my kids from the bus stop, she told me to bring it up during my oil change the next week. I did and they told me it wasn't their problem, the recall had nothing to do with the airbags, and quoted me at $600 for them to go through my car and check the wires. The service manager did tell me the obd 2 reading was B1C29-left side seat thorax squib 1 open and B1C2D- right side seat thorax squib 1 open; and advised me to unplug and plug all the connectors under the seat. I did this and nothing happened. I called them back and they said they couldn't do anything to fix it and it was my fault not theirs and i recieved the same $600 quote to fix it. I know it happened while they were working on it and i have found a couple of threads with people that had the same problem and they all said to make a complaint on here.

When idle, vehicle's engine light, traction control, and electronic throttle light come on to the dash. When putting the vehicle in drive or reverse, acceleration is very low. Vehicle has a difficult time accelerating. Max speed will be at about 30 mph. This has also happened while driving, as well. Battery was replaced and throttle body as well, via mechanic's code readings from the vehicle. Car continues to show week accelerating.

Ac actuator blend doors not working properly. This is a common problem with 2012 jeep patriots. Does not work if the car is in motion or if it's stationary.

As i am driving down the road, the car shuts off. I am unable to accelerate and have no power steering. This has happened several times with speeds anywhere from 2 mph to 70 mph. Once happened while pulling out of the driveway, driving on the highway, and on secondary roads. At first i could just pull off the road, turn the car off and then on again. It would start right up. The last few times, i had to wait for a longer period of time sitting on the side of the road before it would start. One instance i was unable to pull off the road due to being on a hill and not driving very fast. The vehicle would not start right away. I was stuck in the middle of the road and a car almost hit me from behind. Very scary! I have the vehicle in the shop now with no luck so far as to the problem.

When accelerating on the highway the transmission seems to "lock" up, preventing the gears from shifting and causing the engine to over-rev. Since the gears don't shift, the vehicle is unable to accelerate. This is the second jeep patriot i have owned and the second one that has had this problem. The issue in the first would cause the transmission to over heat and eventually the vehicle would slow to a crawl. This happened several times while highway driving, with an infant. We were forced to pull over on the side of a busy highway to wait for it to cool down. This happened only 2 months after purchasing the 2013 jeep patriot and the dealer agreed to trade the vehicle back and i was stuck with the same make and model which now is exhibiting similar problems. I am concerned that they may reach a similar point and i now need my vehicle for highway travel on a regular basis. I obtained the 2012 jeep patriot in august of 2016 and did not notice any issues until february 2018 and now it happens on a daily basis on my commute to and from work.

My car recently developed issues with a faulty fuel tank valve. This makes it difficult to pump gasoline. There was a recall in 2012 jeep patriots for this issue (m11). However, my car was not included in the recall.

Jeep stalls randomly, has happened while stopped, and while driving. This has happened on 4 different occasions. On another occasion vehicle lost power driving, as if it were going to stall, but after about a minute regained power

Car gradually stopped taking gas. It would click off and not allow additional gas to be put in. Initially this was at half a tank, then a quarter, then before i could even get the gas light off. The car was evaluated by three different mechanics, all who confirmed it was a gas tank issue identical to recall m11. This issue also effects the safety function which keeps the tank from catching on fire in the event of a rollover accident. We contacted jeep multiple times, but were told that this recall includes cars manufactured as late as january 2012 but does not include my car which was manufactured in february 2012. Jeep refused to look into the issue further because the car was not included in the recall.

This vehicle is a manuel transmission 2012 jeep patriot 4x4 purchased in february 2017 from carmax with a little less than 37,000 miles on it. In late december 2017 / early january 2018 i began to hear/feel a 'whirring' sound when the transmission was engaged, the sound ceased when the clutch was depressed. I took in for repair with the clutch being replaced. The issue was not corrected, the clutch not being the issue. With a new clutch the problem was then determined as a internal transmission problem. A diagnostic was performed by local dealer fred frederick chrysler. The conclusion was a failure/issue occurring in the front transmission bearing area. I have driven this jeep less than 18,000 miles; it has less than 55,000 miles on it! Transmissions should not be failing at this point. This is a known issue with 2012 jeep patriot's. As of january 2018 there are 196 complaints with more than half, 104, dealing with engine or power train problems, on just the nhtsa website alone. Failures have occurred with as little as 20,000, 26,000, or 30,000 miles. Many also occurring in the mileage area of my vehicle (54,500) with failures at 47,000, 50,000. There have been no recalls or investigations into this problem. I filed a complaint with jeep / chrysler. I was told by my case manager, 'there is nothing we can do (or will do) to help you'. He went on to say; 'it's a business decision (by jeep / chrysler)' this issue needs to be addressed by jeep / chrysler, corrected, and jeep owners compensated.

I had a 1/4 tank of gas and went to the gas station to fill up. While pumping, the gas pump kept shutting off. I thought something was wrong with the gas pump so i went to another pump and the same thing continued to happened (i only got a few gallons). Later that day, i went to the gas station again and the same thing was happening, the pump shutting off. I was able to finally fill the tank after repeated shut offs, pumping and shuts off again. In 2014, i had the repair done (recall for the fuel tank transfer tube) however this is the first time i am experiencing this problem with my gas tank. I did some researching and it seems to be the gas tank vent system is not venting quick enough causing the gas is backing up. I will be calling my dealership to see what they can do about this. My real question is was the recall repair "faulty"?

The vehicle is stationary and motor turned off. It is next to impossible to fill the fuel tank with gasoline. It must be done extremely slowly or gasoline comes bursting out everywhere. The local dealer attributes it to a check valve which is inside the gas tank and when broken will not allow air into the tank when filling with gas. This is a design flaw with chrysler vehicles, and quite dangerous. It is also common for vehicles with this problem to stall when in motion, another very dangerous situation.

Took my jeep in for the recall twice and left it for 4 hours each time. Same story each time " we don't have the parts" fremont motors in casper wy. Only dealer in town

Transmission starts making whinning noise, transmission starts to slip, then the transmission overheats while driving down the interstate at 75 mph, it has also happened in town. The dealership can see that the fault is displayed, yet they cannot seem to find anything wrong.

Takata recall - said vehicle has been on the recall list for 24 months, dealer indicates ongoing issues from manufacturer in obtaining parts to repair recall.

I have had my 2012 jeep patriot for over a year and just recently, in the last 5 months, the engine will randomly stall while i am driving or idling at a light/stop sign. There is no warning or indication as to why this happens. It has happened at various speeds ranging from 25 mph to 60 mph. It has happened on residential roads and on the freeway. Luckily, each time it has happened i have been able to get over to the shoulder pretty quickly. When it first started happening, i would turn it off and be able to start it right away. It has been happening more frequently lately. Sometimes it happens anywhere between 2 to 6 times a day. It's very random. Sometimes days go by before it happens and then sometimes it happens every single day. It never happens when i am turning. Only when i am driving. Never in reverse. When it stalls, the engine completely shuts off and my steering wheel locks up. The lights, radio, etc stay on. Once it stalls and i turn the jeep completely off, it is taking longer and longer for it to start back up again. Once it stalls, the check engine light comes on and stays on. Sometimes the light is off in the morning after i park my jeep overnight and sometimes the light is still on in the morning when i get up to drive my jeep.

Cvt transmission overheats and acceleration computer needs adjusted because its sporatic. It overheats on highway and accelerates funny in town.

After pumping gas, less than a mile into my trip home, my jeep's started stalling, the power steering went off (i couldn't easily turn the steering wheel) and it died in the middle of the road. I turned the key in the ignition to the off position, then back on and i was able to started it. I only moved about 500 feet and then it happened again. I turned it off, back on again and the same thing happened a third time, as i was getting home. I sat on my parking spot and the jeep was stalling but it didn't die again. I looked up jeep forums and it seem to be a common problem and people resolve it by not filling the tank all the way. Needless to say it was a very scary experience and it could've easily caused an accident.

(1) seat belts/air bags: have not had noticeable issues with these yet however are associated with a chrysler recall #s61. Is a safety risk because i commute to work daily on the free way and could get into a car accident which could be deadly if the air bags did not deploy or if the seatbelt did not work properly. (2) air bags, electrical system, seat belts: chrysler recall # n01; electrical system began having issues spontaneously after buying the vehicle and have persisted. Warning signals on dash will flicker on and off while driving which seems to be electrical-related. Jeep will also randomly alert while driving making a, "ding" noise when there is no cause for alarm. This software/electrical error could cause air bags to not deploy properly and can adversely affect the seatbelt pre-tensioners as well which could be deadly in a high-speed freeway accident. (3) fuel system, gasoline: chrysler recall # n17; jeep has lurched while in motion driving as if the engine was stalling or as if there was something wrong with the transmission. Jeep will lurch most often when accelerating and it seems as though the transmission is getting stuck or the engine is stalling because the rpm reading will shoot up then drop back down to almost nothing. (4) fuel system, gasoline, storage tank, assembly: chrysler is recalling certain model year 2012 jeep patriot's due to some vehicles being built with a fuel tank assembly containing a damaged roll-over valve. (5) suspension: constant squeaking in back suspension of vehicle while in motion, especially when going over bumps or driving on uneven ground. Automotive shop has yet to be able to determine the cause or issue resulting in the squeaking and creaking and we have been going to them for the past 2 years for vehicle maintenance.

I was informed of this recall via us mail nearly a year ago in september of 2016. As of today, july 30, 2017, the nhtsa website still lists this recall as "no repair or resolution available." this is unacceptable. Chrysler / jeep must offer a repair to this critical safety recall issue asap.

While driving down i-70 at 77 mph the temperature light come on, coasted to the shoulder as i couldn't accelerate. Once pulled over i turned off my jeep and waited about 10 minutes, started it back up, no light, performed as it should. On the way back from my trip the issue happened again, this time i took it to the dealership. They performed a download and said 'no faults are stored in the system'. I get all the required maintenance done.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. The contact received notification of nhtsa campaign number: 16v668000 (air bags, seat belts); however, the part for the recall repair was unavailable. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The ferrairo chrysler dealer provided the contact with an appointment in july; however, the parts were not available. The manufacturer was not made aware of the issue.

The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. The dealer and manufacturer were not contacted. The contact called the fca at 800-853-1403. The fca stated that the launch date was sometime in june. When the contact called back on july 5, 2017, he was informed that the launch would be sometime in august. The contact had not experienced a failure. Vin tool confirms parts not available.

A recall was issued in september of 2016 the vehicles may experience loss of air bag and seat belt pretensioner deployment capability in certain crash events. This is an unacceptable length of time. I was already contacted by chrysler and they assured me the parts would be available by june but that has already passed. One way or another i should not have to drive a car, potentially, with faulty airbags or seatbelts for a year.

Due to the recall on the air bag module the fuse blew out causing the wiring harness to catch fire burning up the whole harness and if replaced the problem will still persist due to no part for the air bag module was driving down the road and have to pull over and call the fire department

Tl* the contact leased a 2012 jeep patriot. The contact inquired about purchasing the vehicle from the leasing company, but was denied because it was included in nhtsa campaign number: 16v668000 (seat belts, air bags). The parts were not available for the repair. The contact stated that the manufacturer exceeded a reasonable amount of time for the recall repair. A local dealer was not contacted.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. While driving 40 mph, the engine stalled without warning. A local dealer (tunkhannock auto mart located at 509 joseph hunter highway tunkhannock, pa 18857 877-816-4325) was called, but failed to respond. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic, but was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The vin was unknown. The failure mileage was 71,044.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. While driving 75 mph, the vehicle stalled without warning. The vehicle was towed to firestone of lubbock, texas where it was determined that the fuel transfer tube did not bring fuel into the main fuel tank, which caused the vehicle to run out of fuel. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and stated that the vehicle was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 13v120000 (fuel system, gasoline). The failure mileage was 45,000.

My jeep is by far one of the biggest safety hazards if not for me but for everyone else on the road. The transmission overheat light comes on constantly. If i go over 60 on a day that is over 70 degrees for longer than 10 minutes the transmission will over heat. It isn't just an annoyance it is a safety issue that jeep has known about. A recall needs to be iniciated. The

The vehicle was stationary in my driveway when i noticed that my tire,on the driver's side, was separating down the middle of the tire. I brought my car to firestone so that my tire could be inspected. Once inspected by onsite workers, they told me that the tire had failed and that i needed a new one. I am attaching pictures to show how my tire separated. I still have my tire so that i can send it in for firestone to further investigate the tire failure.

I was pulling out of a parking lot onto a busy street. I put my foot on the accelerator to gain speed and there was no response. I could not accelerate. The check engine light came on. I was able to turn the car off and back on and was then able to accelerate. I had the car towed to the dealership. The dealership had the car for a week and said the car was fixed without giving much of an explanation. I had the car back for 2 day and it happened to me again twice. I took the car back to the dealership and they have had it for an additional week with no diagnosis. They say they have not been able to get the car to replicate the issue. I am concerned to drive the car as this has happened to me on three occasions on busy streets and it is very dangers.

While driving, the engine stalls out. This happened once 2 weeks ago and the engine light came on. However, the light was off the following morning. Today, it happened twice, and the engine light is back on. I was driving less than 55mph both times on city streets and not turning. When the engine stalls, all power is lost to the steering and breaking system.

The car stalls frequently in the middle of the street. Dealer replaced crankshaft position sensor in june 2016 and insisted the problem is unrelated to the recall that already exists which causes stalling. Less than 1 year and approximately 12,000 miles later the car is stalling frequently again - every time the car is put in reverse and approximately 3-4 times more every 20 minutes.

We bought this car for my son in dec 2016. In the summer of 2017, he was driving down the freeway at about 70 mph. After driving for about an hour, maybe two hours on the freeway, his car literally shut down. It went from 70 mph to 20 mph immediately. This happened 4 times last summer. We took the car to lithia dodge of santa rosa, ca twice. They couldn't duplicate the problem. I had him come home (chester, ca) and took it to where we bought it at susanville auto center in susanville, ca. They couldn't duplicate the problem either. They did say that they had two other jeeps with the same transmission that the customers said they had the same issues. Again, they couldn't duplicate the problem. Just now, my son called (he is on his way up for easter) and he is stuck in woodland, ca alongside the freeway. It happened again. Susanville motors had us change the transmission fluid which we did (over $400) to hopefully fix the problem. It obviously didn't. It is only 75 degrees right now. The car doesn't show any sign of overheating, all fluids are good, but then all of a sudden, after driving freeway speeds, the overheating light will come on and the car will shut down. The temperature gage says everything is great. I have gone on the internet and found some chat areas where other people are having the same problem. When is jeep going to put in a recall on this issue? They have to know about it. Is it going to take my son getting into an accident and getting hurt, or even worse, killing himself? I am petrified about this. I turned in a case last summer (case # 32398610) and spoke with a wonderful lady by the name of kaylee. Please help. Jeep won't do anything.

On 3/21/2017 and on 3/22/2017 the vehicle stalled while in motion at different speeds 4 times. The battery was replaced due to this and the alternator was tested as to having no issue. It happens at various speeds from 25-70 mph and causes me to have to pull over to the side of the road when it stalls out which is very dangerous for anyone operating the vehicle and other vehicle operators that may be around me when this happens. Usually the car will start back up and run for another period of time before it happens again. Chrysler has had multiple complaints filed about this on multiple websites and with this agency however the recalls implemented for this problem have only pertained to certain models none of which were related to my model of the jeep patriot. Again this has happened on city streets and highways and have yet to have a dealer or mechanic be able to diagnose the problem. Thanks

My 2012 jeep patriot has wet carpets on the driver side front and rear. The headliner is also leaking every time i go though the car wash or it rains heavily. This is a extremely common jeep patriot problem and it needs to be recalled. These jeeps are leaking constantly. I am tired of my jeep having wet carpets and water leaking from the roof. This will happen if i am moving or just parked. Water constantly comes in. This has happened ever since i bought my car. It is asking for the date it happened i am going to just put todays date, but just know it has happened with my jeep for its entire lifetime.

Takata recall, in reference to the occupant restraint controller, i have been given the run around when i call concerning this issue. Am concerned they will self deploy, or not deploy. Have signed up for notifications for replacement parts, and have given the dealership to do the work. To date not a word about my issues or recall notifications, and it's been very upsetting. I worry every time i get behind the wheel, or have a passenger in the car.

Vehicle frequently hesitates and/or occasionally stalls at both low & high speeds. Most often occurs on inclines. Took in for repair more than twice and still occurs. The technician witnessed it but could not produce a vehicle analysis conformation an accident occurred last christmas eve when vehicle stalled after accelerating from an idle at a stop light. The vehicle halted in traffic and was hit from behind. Also, stalled on the up-slope of a high bridge traffic on the gs parkway (nj) at hwy speeds. After numerous failed start attempts it finally restarted a couple of hours later. The car has also decelerated or hesitated on several occasions while driving at different speeds without an incline. Also, vehicle makes grinding noice when turning during acceleration; mostly on right. Multiple lights (headlights, brake, signal and parking lights) have been a problem.

I try to fuel my 2012 jeep patriot (55000) miles, but the fuel pump continues to shut off. It takes me at least 10 minutes to pump 8 gallons of fuel into my tank. This has been going on for over a month now.

The back passenger floor board is consistently soaking wet, with a standing puddle of water. Well dry it up as much as we can and the next morning if its rained the back passenger floor board will be completely wet again. The inside of the windows get extremely wet and dewy to were there is water dripping from them including the inside of the sunroof window. We again soak it all up, as much as we can. But the upholstery on the seats, sunroof cover and the headliner stay very dewy and moist to were your butt/pants and tail end of your shirt are both damp from sitting in it. We took it to the dealer and they stated the obvious that the carpet and the upholstery needed to be replaced and the jeep need to be completely dried out thoroughly, but that they couldn't find the issue as to what could be causing the leak. Needless to say that wasn't much help. Were very concerned and don't know what else to do, worried all the water is shorting out the electrical. The driver side seat heater hasn't been working since the leak issue.

Recall issued but no remedy to fix the problem - what are my next steps

Total tipm failure, with engine, brakes, steering, airbags failing all at once, with no warning, in traffic. 87 yr. Old with near fatal breakdown. Contacted jeep, sent in documentation, told 6 mths. For reimbursement, then refused because vin did not match recall list. Part was backordered because of mass failure.

My vehicle, along with thousands of others have been under recall for a serious safety concern. Circuits fail, which prevent the airbags from deploying and from seat belts restraining. I have waited 4 months for a resolution and there is nothing. It is unacceptable that i am forced to drive around a hazardous vehicle (pregnant!!!). Jeep should either provide a safe rental vehicle or buy this back. The value of my vehicle has greatly decreased due to this recall. How many people have to be killed before action is taken on this-- this is unacceptable and i would expect that a group whose responsibility is to keep drivers safe would allow this to continue without a resolution. I expect more.

It's been almost 7 months since this recall was announced and it doesn't seem like there's any effort in correcting this issue. I don't feel safe driving this vehicle anymore. I know it's a risk driving a vehicle regardless, but increasing the potential dangers for a reason that isn't my own fault is ridiculous. I wish i could get rid of this thing, but it would be a pretty large loss if i did at this point, so i have to accept it until either they finally fix the issue like they should have months ago, or i get a raise/hit the lottery

Stalls at low speed (40 mph or less) and at idle, most often with some engine load -- like ac is on or turning the steering wheel. It stalls more often in the afternoon than in the morning.

While on the freeway, speed 65-70 my car suddenly lost all acceleration and a winding noise accompanies the loss. Sometimes the temp gauge or electric throttle light will light up. This has happened a total of 4 times over the past 2 months. All 4 times i have been able to wait an hour, start the car drives normally. After each occasion i've taken the car to a chrysler jeep dealer. Either they say it's a misfire, or i need a tune up or an ignition coil. I've since had all these repairs and the issue continues. This is very unsafe. I've had my kids in the car every time, thankfully i avoided getting rear ended and now drive in the slow lane not over 65 mph just to be prepared for my jeep to do this again. I'm scared to drive this car.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. The contact stated that the temperature warning indicator kept randomly illuminating and the engine overheated. The failure caused the contact to have to wait a brief moment and place the vehicle in neutral in order for it to cool down to be able to drive the vehicle. The dealer (bill dodge, 118 pleasant st, brunswick, me 04011, (207) 721-8300) from where the vehicle was purchased provided no owner's manual and replaced the cvt transmission; however, the warning indicator kept flashing. The dealer stated that the part needed to be replaced again. In addition, the dealer refused to provide an owner's manual; therefore, the contact had to research a solution and obtain information on his own. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure, opened a case, and then closed the case with no solution other than replacing the same part. The vehicle was unsafe to drive because the temperature warning indicator could illuminate at any time. In addition, the vehicle failed to shift properly and was slow to pick up speed. The approximate failure mileage was 97,000.

I have had numerous problems with my 2012 jeep patriot. From the beginning my transmission would constantly over heat and i brought it into the dealer at about 30,000 miles and they said, "there is nothing wrong." the problem persisted and finally they issued me a new transmission at about 50,000 miles. A few months later, the engine just stopped continuously on the highway & street. Then they discovered that it was the crankshaft sensor that was bad, which they replaced. I had to pay $100 because of a deductible. The car seemed to be working okay until june 22nd, 2015 when i was on a road trip and all of a sudden the car completely died with a huge semi truck behind me. I was traveling at about 75 mph and the car just completely shut down, power steering, everything went off except for the lights and other items run by the battery. We immediately tried our best to signal and finally made it safely off the highway at speeds of under 15 mph. The car gave us no check lights and no indication as to what was wrong with the vehicle except for that it would not turn over when we tried to start it. We had to have the vehicle towed while on a road trip. We live in california and had to have the vehicle towed in idaho falls, idaho which was extremely inconvenient. We rented a car and left the 2012 jeep patriot at the dealer hoping they could fix it upon our return to that area. They were unable to give us any answers and said the car started fine. Obviously, you can see how this is an issue. I have no problem fixing the car but with no answers to what is wrong and having the constant worry of wondering if my life and my family's life is in danger, is not something i am willing to tolerate. It seems that many people are having the same issue as well. I will be forwarding this for them to make a complaint as well. I will also follow up hoping that this issue can be resolved.

During driving car got stalled suddenly and engine stopped and locked and prevented to move off from road with evap check engine light. My family in the car and someone behind about to hit at the back and its a major issue if engine lock down while driving

During the summer or any hot day, and especially during speeds over 65 miles per hour my jeep engine will stall.. Meaning it will reduce speed and then stop... This has happened every summer for years, and is now happening again during driving in traffic, and has effectively left me stranded at times on the road... I have had to have the vehicle towed to the dealership. I will show you the warning indicator light it presents with. I am dating the problem as 06/18/16 even though there have been multiple occurrences.

Bought this vehicle used from a dealership with 39,000 miles on it. Have not even made 1 car payment yet and have had to get it towed out of my garage to take to the dealer because it would not start one morning. Dealer diagnosed it as having a faulty wcm module around $400 to fix. Not a good start to owning a jeep.

Tl* the contact owns a 2012 jeep patriot. The contact stated that the vehicle retained water leading to excessive water build up on the rear passenger side of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the vehicle had two openings on the rear passenger side, and the vehicle would need padding to be repaired. The vehicle was repaired, but the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 91,000.

Engine stalled at 45 miles/hour at three different occasions over a 3 day time frame. After approximately 5 minute the engine could be started up again. The dealership replaced a crankshaft sensor as a supposed fix. After driving the vehicle for 15 to 20 miles the engine would shut down again without warning. This time the engine started and stalled 6 consecutive times over a distance of less then one mile. The car was towed to the dealership. The problems described occurred while driving on state road and north medina line road, west of akron, ohio. The condition described is dangerous as the loss of engine operation renders car handling (stearing and braking) very difficult. Engine stall at the third time stated above happened at a sharp right curve with on-comming trafic. A collission was narrowly avoided.

While i am driving if i or my passenger who is driving beside me in the front seat accidently hits the gear shifter while i am driving on the highway or any road and it has almost caused me to get rear ended several times because when accidently hit it gets knocked into 1rst,2nd and sometimes 3rd gear which causes the car to decrease immediately and because of this causes me to almost get into an accident this has happen several times the gear shifter is barely touched and it kicks into a downshift gear. This is a safety hazard and needs to be fixed so it doesn't move so easily. I was in pennsylvania on a busy 2 lane road that big flat bed and trucks go down and i was traveling at a about 65 mph and i had my teenage daughter in the car with who was sleeping and moved her leg in her sleep causing her to hit my gear shifter without my knowledge and my car just slowed down and when i looked quickly to see what was going on it was the gear shifter was accidently hit knocking the car into a lower gear. I had this truck hot on my bumper he had to tap on his breaks a little causing him to smoke some with his tires and i was able to find a small opening so i could hurry and pull over. This has happen several times.

The vehicle was not taken to a mechanic. The manufacturer's hotline informed the contact that the vehicle was included in nhtsa campaign number: 16v668000 (seat belts, air bags). The remedy would not be available until between march and may of 2017. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 45,000.

2012 patriot has 48k miles on it. Been driving a std shift for most of my 46 years. The throw out bearing is very noisy. This has developed over a few months. I contacted the local dealer service moritz and they didn't know if it was covered under the 100k drive train warranty so i contacted jeep. They didn't know either and had to look it up. It is not covered. There is no way, under normal driving conditions, that a throw out bearing should go bad with such low milage. Jeep won't cover the repair. If one looks on the internet this is a very common problem with the patriot and not just with the 2012 model year. This should be a recall item. Jeep is hiding behind the 12k clutch warranty to make customers pay for a defect in craftsmanship. I've owned german and japanese cars that had over 130k miles that needed neither a clutch or a throw out bearing. The patriot shifts fine, the clutch does not slip. The only issue so far is the very noisy throw out bearing'.Clearly a manufacturing defect as it's so common.

The failure mileage was 126,000.

I was driving at a speed of 50mph around a curve in the road and the engine stalled and the check engine light came on. I tried to put tin neutral and restart it, it did not turn over. I put it in park and after 3 tries it started. I immediately took it to the dealership and they told me it was a crankshaft position sensor. This happened once before on a saturday and when i took it in on monday they told me without a check engine light they could not know what was wrong.
