Tl the contact owns a 2009 Jeep Patriot. While driving 60-70 mph, the engine lost power, the vehicle decelerated, and the contact lost control of the brakes. Additionally, the transmission would not move into gear and the vehicle remained stationary on the shoulder. The throttle, fill cap, and check engine warning indicators illuminated. The vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic to be diagnosed, but the test could not read the codes. The vehicle was not repaired. Days later, the failures recurred. The dealer and manufacturer were not made aware of the failures. The failure mileage was 108,000.

I had just filled the tank as usual and drove about 500 yards to a red light. In the past after a fill up, the Jeep would stall and "buck" around 30 mph, as if it couldn't get into gear, even though this is a cvt. I thought this might happen again, but it didn't this time, which was curious. At the light, upon attempting to accelerate there was no response from the throttle, and the car remained in drive, but refused to move. I could not shift out of gear into neutral. A red light in the upper left corner of the dash came on and began to beep, and the entire dashboard lit up, with every light coming on and making noise. Eventually, I lost all power and waited more than an hour for a tow truck in the middle of a three lane avenue. The mechanic told me a relay was entirely blown and blackened, and this had killed the battery. This was replaced at no cost to me, but he said they could not find what had caused the relay to blow. Essentially, what occurred was a symptom, not the cause, and would happen again. The car is currently sitting, deemed unsafe to drive. I also had lower ball joints replaced at 55,000 miles, which is far too early. I love Jeep, but I hate the 2007-2010 Patriots. Bad buy.

I was driving my 2008 Jeep Patriot that has a manual transmission. I was coming up on a red light so I got ready to stop. The light turned green before I had to completely stop so I continued through the light and attempted to shift gears. When I put my foot on the clutch it went all the way to the floor. There was no pressure in the clutch at all. I pressed the gas in an attempt to get off the road and out of the way of the vehicles that were coming up quickly behind me. The clutch was completely loose. I had to get out of the Jeep and push it to the side of the road. I was so upset and disappointed! I had literally only had the Jeep Patriot for 1 month. A police officer had to park his patrol car behind me with his blue lights on to warn people I was there so I would not get hit by another vehicle. I had to get the Patriot towed to my house. The brake/clutch fluid had made a puddle on the side of the road. Well I got a mechanic that I know to come to my house and take a look at it. First of all the clutch line had "slipped off" and had to be put back on. And for that to happen by itself like that is scary. I ordered a new clutch release bearing&slave cylinder assembly. This has been put on and the line bled. That was finished up on Thursday and today is Sunday. I got in it this morning and it would not let me shift gears. I turned it off and cranked it again. This time the whole front of the Patriot was shaking. I turned it off. I pumped the clutch for a bit and cranked it again and it finally worked. I drove to work and all seemed fine. After work when I cranked it, it would not shift gears. I had to turn it off and pump the clutch a bit and crank it again before it would go. I have noticed hundreds if not thousands of people with clutch issues, slave cylinder issues and a ton of other issues with the 2008 Jeep Patriot. Something needs to be done about this!!!.
