Vsa Warning Light On problems of the 2014 Jeep Patriot

Sitting at a red light, vehicle engine light came on followed by the throttle warning light. Vehicle lost power and engine felt like it would stall. Vehicle would only drive at very low speed to get to safety. After restarting, engine light remained on, vehicle was drivable but soon failed again within a few miles and the throttle warning light came on again. Stability control light may come on as well. Was too concerned with getting to safety to know for sure.

I have a 2014 Jeep Patriot latitude that has 48100 miles on it . Its was fine up until know where it will stall out while driving and shut down and the stability light would come on . I would pull over and the car would restart . It has been happening a lot and its scary not to know when it will happen again . Someone is going to get killed if the problem is not fixed . Jeep should have a recall on the cars and fix the problem . The problem has happened while turning a corner and on streets and then went to stall out on a highway.

Jeep slowed down to 20 mph engine light, electronic stability control light and electronic throttle control light came on was on interstate going 70 mph scared the crap out of me . Pulled over and restarted Jeep and went on vehicle was running rough lights still on got to exit . And went to auto store they checked the codes and took it to dealer and throttle body and gasket and throttle body assembly have to be replaced cost of 490. 43 the dealer auto store code machine read invalid data received from engine control module power train control module a. Comfimed.

While driving in the city at about 30 mph my etc light comes on and car starts to slow and will not let me accelerate. Also as soon as I stop and start to go my car moves very slowly about 10mph and sometimes the etc light and stability control light will come on and my car will not accelerate over 15/20mph at all until I stop and try to go again. Sometimes it's so bad that I have to stop and shut off my car and start it again for it to fix itself. This is very dangerous especially when going across the road or turning when other cars are coming. Never mind how dang it is if it is to happen on the highway, which I have avoided since I don't feel like dying anytime soon. Everything I read on the internet is saying that it's been happening to many people that have 2014 Jeep Patriots. This is honestly something that is going to get someone seriously hurt and at no fault of their own. I've also read about a recall on an engine part from 2013 in the 2014 Patriots with a 2. 4l engine and I am just wondering why when I look up recalls for my car that specific one does not show up. If something is wrong and needs to be replaced owners should be notified before someone gets hurt.

I was driving on the freeway doing 65 and the jerked hard and the power of the car droped down to about 20 mph almost causing me to get into a crash with cars behind me a red lighing bolt lite up on the dash as this was happening and at that same time the check engine light came on if I pressed on the gas nothing but rpm went up and the car would not go over 20 mph the lights stopped and the car went back to normal barely making it home same thing happened again it's the etc light check engine light and esc stability control light all come on and you lose power to acelrate.

I have a 2014 Jeep Patriot with about 33,474 miles when the problem occurred. I was driving going home in a busy street in los angeles when all of a sudden the malfunction indicator light (mil) and electronic stability control (esc) (see photos) light showed up on the dashboard and I stopped because the traffic light turned red. I had 3 passengers with me and they were trying to google what the dashboard light means. When the light turned green, I started to drive but the engine was stalling, as if it doesn't want to drive, no power. So I parked at the curb, turned off the ignition and waited for a few seconds then turned the ignition on again. The esc disappeared from the dashboard but the mil remained lit up. I was able to drive home and the next day, took the vehicle to my mechanic. My mechanic replaced the throttle body and it's working fine now. I noticed the difference in the performance of the vehicle before and after the throttle was changed. I am reporting this to you because I have heard news and got a letter from a law firm informing me of a number of mechanical defects reported about the vehicle. At this point, I am too late to bring it to a Jeep dealer for repair because the vehicle is out of warranty.

Driving my nrkmal route to take my son to his summer program. (city street, 24mph speed limit) on arrival, only driving 3 miles from my home, my rpms were well over 2000 at a stop light. The car began sto shake. The engine light, electronic stability control light, and stability control light come on. I pulled over the the nearest gas station. Turned car off and back in again. Rpms over 2500. They died down after 2 min. All lights still flashing. Got it to somewhere yo have codes read. "high airflow vacuum leak". Nursed it home,. Could not go over 20mp. Anything over 20mph the car shook violently. Rpms were over 2000. All of this driving was kn city streets with speed limits not going over 35mph. We tried to replace the throttle body today. Still having the same issues. Jeep on neutral (manual tranny) rpms over 2000 still.

Driving down the street and the electronic throttle control light came one, the stability control light came on and the check engine light came on. The Jeep started shaking and lost power. I pulled over and restarted the car, it started normally but moments later the lights all cam back and the Jeep starting shaking. Then two days of normal driving and then it happened again. This appears to be a known issue and a recall should be issued. I have researched this and found complaints dating back to 2008.
