The partriot randomly stalls while travelling at any speed. The engine shuts off and car has to coast to a stop. It is extremely dangerous and only a matter of time before someone is injured or killed. Multiple mechanics and the Jeep dealership have no clue as to how to fix the problem. Online research shows this is a major issue for many Jeep owners, not just Patriots. Jeep / Chrysler has a major issue and will not acknowledge or address it. If they refuse to do anything, they should be prepared to pay for their lack of addressing this critical issue. It takes less than a minute to search and see how many people are affected with engine stalling issues with Jeep automobiles. I hope the NHTSA will conduct a thorough review of these issues and force more attention to be given to the serious issue. I bought this car for my daughter and now we can't let her drive it because it is too dangerous. We have spent over $2K trying to address this issue. There are no recalls or other assistance that Jeep can or will offer.

Total control power module (tipm) failure. While driving down the road Jeep Patriots lights started flickering, the most of the dash lights came on. When pulling over the vehicle stalled and lost assisted braking and power steering. Once stopped turned the key off and regained composure. After it sat for a few second the Jeep started right back up and was fine. Took the Jeep to a local store to have the starting and charging system checked and was told that everything was operating within normal parameters. Since then we have had multiple repeat occurrences and now the Jeep has to be jump started if you want it to run. The Jeep was diagnosed with a bad tipm total integrated power unit. This is very dangerous situation and thus my vehicle is now parked. This is the first Jeep that I have owned but do not think their will be another beings that Dodge is not wanting to claim responsibility and correct this dangerous situation

We are currently in our 4th stay at the dealership since May 2016 with the same problem. While driving, the electronic stability control and/or electronic throttle control indicator will ding and light up causing the wheels to lose power (it is like you are in neutral), the brakes to become hard (you can't depress them), and the steering becomes tight. The three previous times to the dealership (griffin Dodge tifton ga), we've been told that they replaced the stability control sensor, the intake manifold gasket, wiring harness to the transmission, and most recently the cpu (Feb 2017).

The contact owns a 2014 Jeep Patriot. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the steering wheel would pull to the right without warning causing the tires to rub against the vehicle. The engine warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where an alignment and a four wheel rotation was completed however, the failure was not corrected. In addition, the contact stated that while driving at various speeds, the oil warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the fuel cover failed and needed to be replaced. The failure recurred twice. The contact then noticed while the vehicle was parked a puddle of oil on the ground. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 36,000.

When making a turn at a stop light or merging into traffic at a low speed, engine dies but will restart after it's put back into park & restarted. This has happened seven times & one time when not turning & usually when you are turning into oncoming traffic and has been in for repairs each time. Service can't diagnose the issue. Vehicle does not give any indication that engine will die. Traction control light comes on if it dies while turning but if not turning, vehicle engine simply shuts off, as if ignition has been turned off but vehicle has to be in park as opposed to being in drive when engine dies. The engine is quiet & you can't tell it's died & you have no steering control. I've almost been in three accidents, one with a truck-trailer waiting to turn but stopping about a foot away from behind me. My mom was in a high school parking lot after a game & almost rolled into some high school kids & their parents B/C she didn't realize she was rolling backwards until my brother pulled the E-brake. The dealership I purchase from told me that Chrysler deems it a lemon. I opened a case with Chrysler, they wasted my time & finally told me that ncdsusa.org deems it a lemon. I waste more time to open a case with ncdsusa.org & send them my repair orders & they go through the trial & tell me that they do not deem it a lemon but that since the dealership has said it's in working order that my case is declined. This vehicle is a death trap & Chrysler doesn't care that an unsafe vehicle is on the road, that I've almost been in three accidents & could have died when the truck and trailer almost rear-ended me and that it's not just my family or myself (if I survive) that will be filing a lawsuit but any other parties involved because I will tell the other party and they could be sued by them as well. I've given dealerships chances to get this off the road but they refuse to help.

I am reporting this information because I would like to know if how many incidents are the same. My Jeep Patriot does not handle well on grooved concrete roadways. It sways, quite a lot and feels like I will lose control of the vehicle. The first incident of this was on hwy 287 North of longmont, co. Unfortunately, the dealer says there is nothing wrong with the vehicle. I have never had this happen in any other vehicle I have owned in the past 30 years. I have had other incidents since the first, just yesterday. It is very hard to go anywhere that I am not familiar or when its dark, I don't know when I will encounter this type of roadway. It is quite scary.

I was driving around a corner which I drive around at least 2 times a day, midway thru the turn my steering wheel locked up and would not let me turn it... it just jammed up in the middle of the turn... I braked and watched as I went straight into a guardrail.. unable to do a thing about the situation except brace myself.
