Vehicle at random engage in breaks. This was the problem from day one and is now. I think someone need to be hold accountable for this automatic crap. This is goings-on problem in last 3 vehicle I had. Rustay wearing / display random images on the dashboard. No abs or traction control. This is dangerous when driving, making car unstable on some occasion. Deler refuse to sell me vehicle! please tell me how I can get legal exemption from all electronics I do not need and endanger my live. One more federal law requires mechanical speed limit to be 85mph. Where can I get car that is safe to drive at rinsible price?.

When the abs wheel sensor detaches from it's mounting point on the transaxle (I. E. From rust) but is still in proximity to the tone wheel, the intermittent signals sent to the abs system causes unpredictable, uncontrolled application of the brakes while driving. This could very likely cause an accident as the car will brake without the brake lights illuminating resulting in a following vehicle crashing into the car. Also, unexpected braking could easily cause loss of control of the vehicle. There were yellow (not red) warning lights on the instrument cluster indicating that there was a problem with the abs/anti-skid / 4wd drive system. The warning lights appeared several days before the braking behavior was observed.

The speed sensors in the rear wheel hubs are held on with a thin wire clip. This rusts away very quickly and the sensor falls out. Then the brakes can be applied without the driver touching the brakes . This is very dangerous and almost caused an accident in my car and the dealer says there is no recall yet, but there should be. . !.
I purchased my 2011 Jeep Patriot from a car dealership in October of 2020. After a week of having the vehicle, I noticed a loud clunking sound coming from underneath. I took it back to the dealer and was told it was nothing. After taking it to my mechanic, he found major rust and corrosion on the front and rear subframe and crossmembers. I paid $2200 in repairs on the car, only to find out the he only did the front end of the car. The back end is just as bad and the car is unsafe for me to drive. When he did the front end of the car, the pieces fell apart as he began taking it apart. This car was a ticking time bomb. It’s now June of 2021 and I don’t know what to do.
