One problem related to speed control springs has been reported for the 2008 Jeep Patriot. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
On any hot day in the summer or spring or winter, or a drive over 2 hours the engine transmission light comes on and the speed reduces to 40 or 35 mph immediately from highway speeds the only remedy is to pull over on the highway, when there is no place to stop I am causing continuous damage to my vehicle, and every 10 to 20 miles it happens, unless I drive 50 mph. It dangerous, and I would like a recall so that I can safely drive my car.
