2008 Jeep Patriot

The contact owns a 2008 Jeep Patriot. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the ABS, EBS, and traction control warning lights were illuminated. The contact associated the failure with NHTSA Campaign Number: 06V493000 (Service Brakes, Hydraulic); however, the VIN was not included in the recall. The failure mileage was approximately 103,000.

Car stalls after fill up. NUMEROUS online Jeep forums have noted this issue for years. There seems to be an issue with the “vapor canister”. Recall was apparently issued for 2011 model - but not older models. It is intermittent yet consistent problem over past few months. Please note that an Engine stall leaves steering wheel LOCKED and unable to maneuver car for a period until can restart. Can leave driver on a VERY DANGEROUS situation traveling at speed !

Front and rear crossmembers are rusted through. Replaced front subframe for $1008.00 in 2021. Available for inspection. Could come to a complete stop if it breaks. Confirmed by independent service center. Not inspected yet. Front squeak heard 2021. Rear squeak heard 2022. This is my 2nd jeep patriot & both jeeps front & rear crossmembers are rusted through breaking apart.

UNKNOWN After I fill up on gas at different stations I had the car sputter and die after filling up til the nozzle stopped itself went to go start the car the first time it happened I got maybe half a mile down the road and stopped at a light and the car died. The second time I was at another gas station and I forgot to shut the car off because it was freezing cold felt like a negative 10 I went to go leave and thought oh crap let me shut it off for a second so the gas would register faster of what I had then if I left it on. I went to go drive away then and the car wouldn’t move I thought great what could it be well I looked down and I wasn’t “on” so I restarted the car and I could tell the car started and I sat for a few and it died. I waited a few seconds and started it again and sat for a few and then was able to go about my business. The third time I filled up and didn't think anything of it because it had been awhile since it happened but I pulled out on the street and it was at a T intersection and I was coming up and to the left well when I turned I died and the light had changed to green I was barely able to make it into the turn lane from when I coasted I shut it off and turned it back on again and we were good. Well this is what happened last night I went to the gas station filled up and sat there for a second and went to start car and it died I wait a few did it again it died. I did this like 4-5 times and I wasn't far from home so I said let's just hurry up and get home. So I got it started and I was pushing the gas as little to keep it from dying and it made it about a mile down the road and acted like it was about to shut off. I made it home sat in the driveway for about 20 mins and it acted fine.

CAR STALLS WITHIN THE FIRST MINUTE OR SO OF DRIVING AFTER FILLING GAS TANK TO SHUTOFF. WHEN THE ENGINE DIES, SO DOES THE POWER STEERING, CREATING A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION. HAPPENS CONSISTENTLY. BEGAN SEVERAL YEARS AGO BUT I LIVED WITH IT BY NOT FILLING TANK TO FULL. NOW MY SON DRIVES THE CAR, AND I AM CONCERNED THAT IT MAY HAPPEN WHEN HE IS DRIVING AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS. MANY PEOPLE HAVE COMPLAINED ABOUT IT, AND NHTSA MUST DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT AND HOLD CHRYSLTER/JEEP RESPONSIBLE
