While on highway engine has completely stalled since MAY of 2022-September-2022

- South Richmond Hill, NY, USA

I would like to recall my 2016 Jeep Patriot because the crankshaft and camshaft sensor are failing to work properly and that increases the risk of crash. There were also problems with the steering column and the tires being off balance because after balancing was found to move without the steering wheel being turned. The recall is important because the vehicle is potential for crash. I only found these things out after driving and seller claimed everything was at top shape but bent the truth due to the small amount of miles put on the vehicle and the fact that I didn't crash the vehicle.

Like many other Jeep Patriot owners, I have experienced driving down the road when out of nowhere, the car dies! Mechanics keep telling people that either the camshaft position sensor or the crankshaft position sensor needs to be replaced...... It's a temporary fix. The code that comes up says that the sensor is intermittent. It's not the sensor that's the problem, it's the wiring connectors!!! Those two sensors are on the same harness. I've had all three sensors replaced. Right after, the car drives fine. Very soon after, the car stalls while driving. Back to square one. They need to recall the sensor wiring for these two sensors for ALL 2016 Jeep Patriots.

The emissions systems stated slippery when wet and the traction for the tires were loose. The tires were installed or balanced wrong causing the tires to slide. When braking the traction caused the car to be driven at low speed to avoid the problems with the steering wheel and the balance between it using the wrong amount of space to turn. It needed it large amount of space because the wheels weren-??t aligned correctly. The speed was hesitant to accelerate and was showing signs of defects written in the manufacturers possibly as needed investigation to return it back safely.

Right before arrive to home my wife an kids (2), the Jeep Patriot 2016 completely shutdown the engine when she slowed down in a gated community to pass a speed bump. The dash lights still on but the car didn't run. She had to maneuver to stop the car. Then she backed the key and start the car and it turned on as usual. Luckily was in the gated community and no traffic here but, I could not imagine what will happen if this engine suddenly shutting down in a highway. I could loose my entire family in a second.

It started acting up Feb 1, 2020 not long after I bought it (Nov 8 2019). It would work, then it wouldn't. It is a hazard to drive because it stalls out or chugs along at a snail's pace until you can pull off the road to shut it down and restart it hoping it accelerates. It is still an issue (Aug 2022). I have not been able to drive it for 2 years even though I am still paying on it because it is just not safe for myself or others on the road. It is a hazard all the way around. I keep checking for recalls, but the sites say there are none. However, finally there may be a ray of hope in solving this awful mess. I just got an email last week from CarComplaints.com about this same issue. It listed the 2016 Jeep Patriot as having that issue and being recalled. The Manufactured dates listed there are May 9, 2016 to July 15, 2016. My door sticker says build date 7-16 MDH 071000 486AA. How do I get this looked at and fixed under the recall? I have NOT driven it since August 26, 2020. It is now Aug 7, 2022. I am still paying on this and can't drive it because it is unsafe to travel anywhere chugging along and being a hazard.

Within 1.5 years my car kept slowing down when driving out of no where. We almost crashed because the car literally won-??t pick up speed or just jolts a few times then stops. We spent over $1000 to have it fixed with 3 different mechanics. They said it was the crankshaft I believe and catalytic converters. We just got the car brand new in 2016 so this has been frustrating because we get oil changes every 3 months and take great car of the car. We-??ve had two get brakes don-??t over and over and also when you turn the wheels it-??s loud and sounds like the ending of a roller coaster when you here it turning. The rides are not smooth either you can see my hand shaking hard when driving even at slow speeds like 35 mph. Jeep really sold us a lemon and we have been paying such a high car note on top fixing things each year. After so many complaints, they really should reimburse people who spend money fixing the same issue. A law suit may handle the issues as well but due diligence would be Jeep seeing the issues and repairing the problem or refunding for the repairs. I-??m hoping someone else will see my complaints and think twice before purchasing this vehicle

This is the third time we have taken our vehicle to be serviced in 2022. The first time was January 2022, next June 2022, and the third a week later after the June 2022. The issue is that the throttle body sensor light comes on and the car starts to act up and has no power. The same issue has occurred all three times. The throttlebody has been replaced twice already and we are currently waiting to see if it will need to be replaced a third time. I believe this poses a safety or hazard risk as this happens when driving during high speeds on the freeway as well as on the streets and can cause a collision.

Our 2016 Jeep Patriot is experiencing stalling in the motor when trying to accelerate at any speed. This happens frequently as well as our temp gauge running hot. We looked up recalls and seen this same issue, typed in our VIN-?? recalls are for same year and make, but not ours. Can we get this reported" Or how do we go about seeing if ours will qualify for coverage since it-??s the same thing happening in the recalls" We-??ve had several close calls of being hit because our vehicle stalls.
