On 4/12/17 at approximately 5:30 pm I was driving my Jeep of 11,000 miles on it. Still a new car. It started running as if loosing power. I pulled off of highway to see what was happening. I pulled hood release it did not open. I looked under Jeep to attempt to get hood open as an police officer pulled up beside car to see if I was ok. As he began to ask this and I turned to reply. Car burst into flames. Officer attempted to use fire extinguisher but it did not help and by the time fire department arrived it was a total loss. Fire raged so hot it melted the front seat head rests and the entire front of Jeep is gone. Perhaps by pulling over is the only reason I am still alive. I have a lot of documents and pictures. In these documents I have word for word of Chrysler Jeep refusing to do an investigation on why this car burned..

I was driving on a city street around 2:30 pm when I notice smoke coming out from under my hood. I pulled off to a safe spot and by this time II could see the fire coming out of the front of my Jeep. Three fire inspectors looked at it and are unable to determine the cause of the fire. However, a Jeep mechanic also looked at it and believes the fire started behind the battery. The Jeep is totaled. Still waiting on reports from the insurance company. Cynthia I just wanted to give you an update. We did hire some people who went out and also were not able to fully determine the fire. I am having a hard time getting in contact with Chrysler. I will keep trying and let you know what they tell me. Depending on what they tell me we might move forward with more investigation. I will keep you updated. From progressive claim #161737586 agent amy etta ph. 503-495-4507

Went through car wash, water came pouring in through dome light, raining on radio. Took to the dealership who said the drain lines are too small and often need to be unclogged. They offer no explanation of the potential electrical hazard or the rotting effects of water left unseen in the roof linings. I googled the issue and found the history of this poor design goes back to 2008. The dealer told me they have not been recalled and can only unclog/blow out the drain tubes during my routine oil changes...this needs to be addressed as a potential electrical safety hazard. I am leasing the vehicle but may need to switch out. This is an acknowledged manufacturers defect that they are apparently ignoring to the consumers risk of electrical fire, and or rotting accessories causing potential severe devaluation in trade in / sale potential as well as actual cash value in insurance appraisals.

I bought my 2016 Jeep Patriot new. It has 20,000 miles. The ABS and traction control light is on. Cruise control stopped working. Windshield wipers make popping noise when on. When at a stop the engine makes a rattling sound. When acceleration it makes a weird noise and takes forever to get it to the speed of 60mph. I can't get my car in for repair until June 14, 2016. Everything that went wrong happened at the same time except the windshield wipers. I smell a lemon in the bunch here!!!
