2008 Jeep Patriot

The contact owns a 2008 Jeep Patriot. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the ABS, EBS, and traction control warning lights were illuminated. The contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 06V493000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was approximately 103,000.

The vehicle stalls after a gas fill up. Daughter was stuck in traffic. No Power steering, brakes, etc. Started back up. very dangerous. This has happened after every fill up.

Car stalls after fill up. NUMEROUS online Jeep forums have noted this issue for years. There seems to be an issue with the “vapor canister”. Recall was apparently issued for 2011 model - but not older models. It is intermittent yet consistent problem over past few months. Please note that an Engine stall leaves steering wheel LOCKED and unable to maneuver car for a period until can restart. Can leave driver on a VERY DANGEROUS situation traveling at speed !

Water leaks in through the sunroof and top racks and leaks out the dome lights inside of the car

This is my 2nd jeep patriot & both jeeps front & rear crossmembers are rusted through breaking apart.

UNKNOWN After I fill up on gas at different stations I had the car sputter and die after filling up til the nozzle stopped itself went to go start the car the first time it happened I got maybe half a mile down the road and stopped at a light and the car died. The second time I was at another gas station and I forgot to shut the car off because it was freezing cold felt like a negative 10 I went to go leave and thought oh crap let me shut it off for a second so the gas would register faster of what I had then if I left it on. I went to go drive away then and the car wouldn’t move I thought great what could it be well I looked down and I wasn’t “on” so I restarted the car and I could tell the car started and I sat for a few and it died. I waited a few seconds and started it again and sat for a few and then was able to go about my business. The third time I filled up and didn't think anything of it because it had been awhile since it happened but I pulled out on the street and it was at a T intersection and I was coming up and to the left well when I turned I died and the light had changed to green I was barely able to make it into the turn lane from when I coasted I shut it off and turned it back on again and we were good. Well this is what happened last night I went to the gas station filled up and sat there for a second and went to start car and it died I wait a few did it again it died. I did this like 4-5 times and I wasn't far from home so I said let's just hurry up and g

My airbag light on the dash board comes on and will not go away. I have had it twice reset and it does NOT go away. I was told that Jeep recalled their models but I cannot find a recall for the Patriot model. Why would all of their other models be recalled and not the Patriot? Does not make sense. 2008 Jeep Patriot.

TIPM problems causing problems with wipers, blinkers. Sometimes can't turn wipers on or off. Passenger side blinkers fast blink. Changed all bulbs but didn't fix. When lights are turned on passenger blinkers fail to work.

CAR STALLS WITHIN THE FIRST MINUTE OR SO OF DRIVING AFTER FILLING GAS TANK TO SHUTOFF. WHEN THE ENGINE DIES, SO DOES THE POWER STEERING, CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. HAPPENS CONSISTENTLY. BEGAN SEVERAL YEARS AGO BUT I LIVED WITH IT BY NOT FILLING TANK TO FULL. NOW MY SON DRIVES THE CAR, AND I AM CONCERNED THAT IT MAY HAPPEN WHEN HE IS DRIVING AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT IT, AND NHTSA MUST DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT AND HOLD CHRYSLTER/JEEP RESPONSIBLE

THE K FRAME IS ROTTED OUT, THEY SAID THERE WAS A RECALL BUT WHEN I TOOK IT UP I CAN'T FIND ONE.

EVERY TIME I REFILL MY TANK WITH FUEL, THE FIRST SEVERAL MINUTES OF DRIVING THE ENGINE WILL HESITATE AND ALMOST STALL (OR WILL STALL IF DRIVING AT SLOW SPEEDS). WHILE STOPPED IN IDLE, ENGINE WILL COMPLETELY STALL. ONCE SOME FUEL IS BURNED, THE ENGINE WILL NO LONGER STALL. THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN ONGOING FOR YEARS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2008 JEEP PATRIOT. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 55 MPH AND ATTEMPTING TO DECREASE THE SPEED OF THE VEHICLE, THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED HOWEVER, THE WHEELS TO LOCKED UP. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE SPUN OUT OF CONTROL AND STALLED. THE VEHICLE WAS RESTARTED AND DRIVEN TO THE RESIDENCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO BE DIAGNOSED NOR REPAIRED. NEITHER A DEALER NOR THE MANUFACTURER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 51,000.

APPROXIMATELY 12/2018 I HAD TO HAVE MY GAS TANK REPLACED DUE TO A FAULTY ROLLOVER VALVE/FLAPPER/INLET CHECK VALVE LOCATED IN THE GAS TANK. I AM NOW HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THE NEW GAS TANK. THE COST TO REPAIR THIS PROBLEM IS WELL OVER $1400 AND TO HAVE TO DO THE SAME REPAIR TWICE IS UNTHINKABLE. THIS HAS TO BE SOME SORT OF SAFETY ISSUE AS WELL, BECAUSE IF THESE VALVES/FLAPPERS ARE SUPPOSED TO EXPEL AIR FROM THE SYSTEM, COULDN'T THIS BE HARMING MY VEHICLE MORE AND/OR CAUSE PRESSURE TO BUILD IN THE TANK? THERE WAS TSB 14-001-09 REV A ISSUED. CHRYSLER ADMITS THIS IS A BIG PROBLEM AND HAS RECALLED A BUNCH OF JEEPS, DODGES, AND SOME CHRYSLER TOWN & COUNTRY VANS. HOWEVER, MY MAKE AND MODEL (08 PATRIOT) IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE EXTENDED WARRANTY THEY ISSUED FOR THE GAS TANKS.

UPON CHANGING REAR TIRE WE FOUND SEVER FRAME RUST AND REAR AXLE DISCONNECTED FROM THE MAIN FRAME. THIS CAME FROM AN MECHANIC'S THIS VEHICLE IS UNSAFE TO AND SHOULD BE PARKED

I WAS INFORMED BY A SHOP AT AN OIL CHANGE THAT THE JEEP PATRIOT 2008 HAS EXTENSIVE RUST AND CORROSION AND IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. THIS JEEP HAS BEEN SERVICED MANY TIMES AT A JEEP DEALER IN THE PAST AND HAVE NEVER BEEN INFORMED OF ANY RUST .WITH THIS INFO WE HAVE RESEARCHED 2008 PATRIOTS AND HAVE DISCOVERED NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS WITH RUST AND CORROSION . I WILL REACH OUT TO THE JEEP DEALER AS WE PURCHASED A LIFE TIME MAXIMUM WARRANTY AT PURCHASE WHEN WE BOUGHT NEW .

I HAVE HAD TO REPLACE 3 ALTERNATORS THROUGHOUT THE PAST 2 MONTHS DUE TO A ELECTRIC PROBLEM. MY BATTERY LIGHT BECAME ILLUMINATED EACH TIME I WAS ON THE EXPRESSWAY GOING AROUND 70 MPH. THE BATTERY LIGHT INDICATOR TELLS ME MY BATTERY IS NOT PROPERLY CHARGING DUE TO MY ALTERNATOR. THIS LEADS TO IT HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE COMPUTER IN MY CAR AS I WAS TOLD BY MY MECHANIC AND THAT THE PROBLEM WITH KEEP HAPPENING UNTIL I GET ANOTHER COMPUTER WHICH COSTS A GOOD AMOUNT TO HAVE REPLACED OR FIXED.

WHEN THE GAS TANK IS FULL THE SERVICE LIGHTS COME ON ENGINE STALLS OUT ABOUT HALF A MILE DOWN THE ROAD. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP WHEN THE ENGINE GOES OUT SO YOU CANT EVEN COAST OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

AFTER FILLING UP GAS TANK TO NORMAL LEVEL, CAR STALLED AND LOST CONTROLS OF VEHICLE

FILLED UP GAS TANK AND CAR STALLED AT STOP LIGHT SHORTLY AFTER. PULLED INTO DRIVEWAY AFTER A 5-MINUTE DRIVE AND STEERING WHEEL LOCKED AND CAR HAD STALLED.
