| Wheel problems |
The contact owns a 2015 Jeep Patriot. The contact stated while driving at 30 mph he was hearing an abnormal high pitched whining noise from the rear of the vehicle. The contact stated that as he was depressing the accelerator pedal the noise was getting louder. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated. The contact had taken the vehicle to a local dealer, where it was diagnosed and determined that the rear tire bearings needed to be replaced. The contact stated that he had only recently purchased the vehicle from the dealer. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.
While the vehicle was in motion, the car hesitated, lost speed, and then cut off (lost compression) while driving on the freeway. The engine indicator light never came on (beforehand) to alert that there was an engine problem. The passenger front tire loses air (constantly) and I've had to put air in the tire (since purchase date 3/13/15) every other week and the dealership keeps insisting there is nothing wrong with the vehicle.
Perform poorly sluggish ,,takes off slow after stopping ,slow changing gears ,have only 28000 miles and front end wheels seem to have problem ,when backing up turning wheels there seems to be something rubbing or srubbing. I purchase this Jeep in 2015 brand new ,and have notice few problems with it .
