2010 Jeep Patriot 4X4 Problems

I'VE MADE A COMPLAINT ALREADY BUT MY 2010 JEEP PATRIOT AGAIN STALLED OUT AFTER GETTING A FULL TANK OF GAS AND DRIVING OFF, LUCKILY STILL AT THE GAS STATION AND WHEN I WAS GETTING COFFEE FOR MY 3 AND A HALF HOUR DRIVE TO SCHOOL, IT STALLED OUT 3 MORE TIMES WHEN I AM IN DRIVE. I WAS SCARED IT WAS GOING TO STALL OUT ON ME WHILE I'M DRIVING FOR THE WHOLE DRIVE. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE THE STEERING WHEEL IS LOCKED AND WHAT IF IT HAPPENED WHEN I AM ON THE ROAD AND THERE IS A CAR BEHIND ME? I COULD GET REAR ENDED. MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE WITH THE PATRIOT.

WHENEVER I PUT A FULL TANK OF GAS IN MY CAR, MY CAR STALLS OUT. ONE TIME, I JUST LEFT THE GAS STATION AND IT STALLED AND THEN WHEN I WENT TO GET FOOD, IT STALLED OUT AGAIN. I'VE HEARD OF OTHER PEOPLE THAT HAVE PATRIOTS, IT HAPPENS TO THEM. MY CAR WAS IN DRIVE AND IT ALSO HAPPENED WHEN I WAS STOPPED WITH MY FOOT ON THE BRAKES. ONE TIME IT HAPPENED WHEN MY PATRIOT WAS IN PARKED. IT'S VERY DANGEROUS BECAUSE IF SOMEONE WAS TURNING, THEY WON'T BE ABLE TO SINCE THE WHEEL LOCKS SO YOU CAN'T TURN IT. THERE SHOULD BE A RECALL ON THIS BECAUSE IT COULD BE THE FUEL TANK OR THE GAS CAP FROM WHAT I'VE HEARD AND IT'S NOT JUST ME HAVING THIS ISSUE.

AT ANY SPEED THE JEEP IS APT TO START WOBBLING SIDE TO SIDE AFTER DRIVING OVER BUMPS. (FREQUENTLY CALLED THE "DEATH WOBBLE" BY JEEP OWNERS WHEN DESCRIBING THIS CONDITION.) AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS THIS MAKES IT DIFFICULT TO STAY IN LANES. THE HOOD HINGES DO NOT HOLD THE HOOD SECURELY DOWN. AT SPEEDS ABOVE 30MPH YOU CAN WITNESS THE HOOD WOBBLING UP AND DOWN AND SIDE TO SIDE. YOU MAY READ ABOUT BOTH OF THESE ISSUES IN DOZENS OF ONLINE FORUMS REGARDING JEEP ISSUES FROM OWNERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY.

BAD BALL JOINTS SAME AS MANY OTHERS. ALSO BAD SUB FRAME. TOOK AUTO IN FOR MAINTENANCE AND WAS SHOWN BAD BALL JOINTS AND A RUSTED OUT SUB FRAME. THESE WERE ISSUES AND EARLIER PATRIOTS BUT NOTHING HAS BEEN DONE.

THIS HAS BEEN GOING ON RANDOMLY SINCE FEB 2018.

ABS SENSOR , ELECTRICAL STABILITY CONTROL AND 4X4 WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON WHILE DRIVING AND VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN. WE SLOWED DOWN AND PULLED OVER. WE RESTARTED THE CAR AND DROVE FOR A COUPLE OF MILES WHEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. IT HAS BEEN A RECURRING ISSUE; THIS COULD BE DANGEROUS BECAUSE OF THE WAY TO CAR SLOWS DOWN UNWARRANTED. THE ABS LIGHT IS ILLUMINATED, MEANING THE ABS MAY NOT WORK IN AN EMERGENCY. I HAVE SEEN MANY COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS ON CAR FORUMS. WE HAD A MECHANIC WORK ON OURS AND THEY REPLACED THE WHEEL SPEED SENSOR AND THE WHEEL BEARINGS; THIS FIXED THIS ISSUE FOR A COUPLE OF MONTHS BUT IT HAS BEGUN AGAIN. ITS POSSIBLE THIS MAY BE AN ISSUE FOR ALL THE WHEELS???

VEHICLE STALLS OUT DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD AFTER FILLING GAS TANK TO FULL LEVEL. THIS IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT MANY PEOPLE WITH THE JEEP PATRIOT ARE EXPERIENCING. THE FIX IS KNOWN. WHEN WILL THIS ISSUE BE RECALLED AND ADDRESSED?

AFTER FILLING UP WITH GAS, THE CAR STARTED JERKING WHEN DRIVING. WHEN SITTING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE CAR JUST SHUT OFF. THIS OCCURS AFTER FILLING UP THE TANK WITH GAS. WHEN SITTING AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS, THE CARS RPM'S DROP THAT THE CAR ALMOST SHUTS OFF IF YOU DON'T KEEP IT MOVING.

SECOND COMPLAIN ABOUT TRANSMISSION FAILURE. VEHICLE NEEDS NEW TRANSMISSION AGAIN AFTER 3 YEARS FROM BEING REPLACED. AS I WAS DRIVING ON I-70 FROM MY HOSPITAL JOB IN THE MORNING RUSH COMMUTE, MY PATRIOT DECIDED TO DROP SPEED FROM 70 MPH TO 30 MPH ON A BLINK OF AN EYE. THIS TIME SINCE I WAS ALONE JUST PUTTING ME IN DANGER UNLIKE THE LAST TIME IN 2013 WHEN IT HAPPEN THAT MY 11 YEAR OLD AND 1 YEAR OLD BABY WERE ON BOARD. I SWERVE TO THE SHOULDER YET AGAIN TO AVOID BEING HIT BY TRAFICC I PROCEED AS I RECALL TO TURN IGNITION OFF AND TRY TO MAINTAIN TACOMETER FROM REACHING 3000 RPM TO AVOID TRANSMISSION SAFE MODE TO KICK IN AGAIN AS I MAKE IT HOME.

A FEW DAYS AFTER HIITTING A POTHOLE ON A COUNTRY PAVED ROAD, MY PATRIOT LOST WIPERS, HEADLIGHTS, TURN SIGNALS & REAR WIPER. NONE OF THE FUSES WERE DAMAGED OR BLOWN. I HAD THE DEALER RUN DIAGNOSTICS BUT NOTHING SHOWED UP. I HAD THE FUSE BOX & RELAYS REPLACED. IT CONTINUES TO HAPPEN WITHOUT WARNING WHILE SITTING STILL & SOMETIMES WHILE IN MOTION. VERY DANGEROUS IN RAIN.

ABS SENSOR , ELECTRICAL STABILITY CONTROL AND 4X4 WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON WHILE DRIVING AND VEHICLE SLOWED DOWN. I PULLED OVER AND TURNED IGNITION OFF , RESTARTED IT ...WARNING LIGHTS CAME BACK ON AND THIS CONTINUED, VEHICLE WAS DRIVABLE. NOW CAR IS IN THE SHOP BUT MECHANIC IS UNABLE TO FIND ANY ISSUES. HE HAS CHECKED BRAKES, STRUTS , SENSORS SO FAR NOTHING IS PROBLEMATIC. I CALLED JEEP FOR HELP WITH ISSUE BUT REPRESENTATIVE ACTED AS IF HE HAS NEVER HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING. *TR

EVER SINCE I HAD TIRES PUT ON, THE SEALS LEAK AND I WAS TOLD IT WAS AN ISSUE WITH JEEP PATRIOT RIMS. ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL RANDOMLY COMES ON AND THE CAR WONT GO, I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND RESTART (INTERMITTENT PROBLEM OVER SEVERAL MONTHS) NOW THE THE ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL MALFUNCTION LIGHT CAME ON AND WONT GO OVER 20MPH. IVE READ SEVERAL COMPLAINTS. WHY NO RECALLS ON THIS?!?!? *TR
