With in this month of March my 2016 Jeep Patriot have at least 8-9 engine stalls unexpectedly while my family and I are driving on the highway, street and 2-3 unexpectedly at a stop sign. You have a recall/ engine stalls (16V907000).I taken my car to my Jeep dealer on 3/9/2019 to my service advisor(james beisiegel, direct#-904-493-8979 and we spoken to a Chrysler representative:1-800-992-1997. They both agree that my Jeep fall under the recall 16V907000 symptoms. But my vehicle doesn't fall under recall perimeters.my Jeep fall one month out of the perimeter of the recall. Chrysler representative and my service advisor wanted me to call NHTSA to see can you umbrella my 2016 Jeep Patriot under recall / engine stalls (16V907000). I feel unsafe when I drive my vehicle. I bought the Jeep in Nov. 2017, I only have the for 16 months.. I have to take a chance everyday. When my family and I get into the vehicle.
I was not informed of this recall and had no knowledge why my car would stall. No notice was sent O my house. I want another vehicle, it can be used same year and style but fixed!
Car shuts off and loses power at various speeds 1-65 miles per hour. When it loses power the power steering goes out and you better pull over fast or you wont be able to move the vehicle until you can get it to start back up. Sometimes it takes a while to start back up. This has been happening to me for 5 months now'. I've taken to the dealership 2 times and they keep telling me nothing is wrong... I never got notified of any recalls and they didnt even investigate to see if there was a recall on my Jeep Patriot the two times I've had it in. I am now having it towed to the dealership because it will not drive more than a few feet with constant shut down. It is dangerous. This happens at all speeds, up hill, down hill, flat, etc.
Vehicle loses power and ability to accelerate. This occured while driving on the interstate at 65 mph. Thankfully, I was able to get vehicle to side of road. Restarted and as driving home, vehicle tries to accelarate itself while car is idling. Had I not had my foot firmly on brake, it would have taken off. Took in for repairs and dealer states that throttle body is bad and this is a common problem on these vehicles. Advised that it was dangerous to drive as vehicle can lose power without warning.

For several months it has been increasingly hard to keep my vehicle running/in motion when going up steep hills or gradients on all roadways. I took it to a mechanic. He replaced the alternator. The problem continues to get worse. The vehicle can be driven. Sometimes I can ease my foot off the accelerator or restart and the warning light will go off and not come back on. Now the warning lights have started flashing. Sometimes the vehicle starts shaking as though its going to quit running. I have been pulling off the road, turning on flashers and turning off the engine. After a minute I restart the engine and hopefully move on down the road. It's so bad now I'm afraid to drive but it's the only Transport we have. I had a diagnostic done and was told it was a camshaft sensor. L looked this up to find out more about it. I found a website that said there was a crankshaft/camshaft recall on the make, model, and and year of my vehicle. The description of the problem the recalled vehicles were having was the same as mine. So I called my dealership service department to discuss this recall to see if they would fix my vehicle. They ran my V.I.N. number and I was told there was no recall on it. They want me to bring it in for a another diagnostic scan. I asked them to give me a guess as to how much it will cost me. I haven't heard from them yet. I don't understand why the V.I.N. makes a difference since my vehicle is the same make, model, and year as ones on recall. I think there should further investigation into other vehicles having this problem. I know of one other person, with same vehicle as mine, who said their vehicle has been acting like mine. I have no other Transport. I am worried about others and myself driving a vehicle with this problem. I'm afraid someone will have a wreck. Please investigate this further.
While driving on a residential road my car stopped without indication, I pressed on the pedal but it wouldn't go. I turned off the car and restarted it right away and it came back on. The next time it was on the highway, everything on the car was still running but the gas pedal wouldn't do anything and it just stopped. I tried restarting the car but it wouldn't turn back on. The car made a loud stuttering noise like it wanted to start but it wouldn't turn on. All the lights on the dash flickered off and on the whole time while trying to restart it. I was finally able to get it back on after about 2-3 minutes of trying to restart it. I found a recall on the crankshaft sensor which causes the engine to stall but I checked my VIN and it shows that there isn't a recall associated with my VIN. The recall with Chrysler is S89.
When driving on the highway, my Jeep instantly turned off with no indication that there was something wrong; no indication of lights or warning issues presented just a loss of complete power. Brakes were hard to push and the power steering was lost as well making it very difficult to control while the car slowed down from going 50 mph. I was luckily in the far right lane when it happened making it easier to pull off to safety for myself and for everyone else behind me. Once stopped, I turned the car back on and all it did was make a sputtering like noise, but never turned on. I waited 5 minutes and tried to start it again and the car turned on this time, but roughly 30 seconds later it just turned off again with no warning. I found a recall on the crankshaft sensor which causes the engine to stall, but when entering my VIN it shows that there is no recall on my car's VIN. This recall needs to be opened up for other VIN's. the recall with Chrysler is S89. This is a huge safety issue!
