2008 Jeep Patriot Service and Repair Manual

ON 9/23/2011, I WAS DRIVING 15-20 MPH WHEN A DODGE CHARGER STRUCK MY JEEP ON MY DRIVERSIDE DOOR CAUSING MY JEEP TO LOSE CONTROL AND ROLL COMPLETELY. MY SIDE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY CAUSING A CONCUSSION. I HAVE SOME MEMORY LOSS AND BACK AND NECK INJURIES. MY JEEP ROLLED ONTO A MEDIAN CAUSING THE ROOF TO CAVE IN FROM THE CENTER OF THE CAR TO THE PASSENGER SIDE DURING THE ROLL OVER. *TR

I PARKED MY MANUAL TRANSMISSION IN THE BANK FLAT PARKING LOT. I PUT IT IN N' AND PULLED THE E BRAKE AND PLACED MY KEYS IN THE CUP HOLDER OF THE JEEP. I WALKED INSIDE AND WAITED IN LINE UNTIL SOMEONE TOLD ME A RED JEEP WAS GOING BACKWARDS DOWN THE MAIN ROAD. I RAN OUT OF THE BANK, DOWN THE ROAD TO FIND MY JEEP STOPPED BY A BRICK WALL WITH THE BRAKE STILL PULLED. NOT ONLY DID IT DRIVE BACKWARDS ON A VERY BUSY ROAD IT MADE A LEFT HAND TURN OUT OF THE PARKING LOT AND THEN AGAIN AT THE LIGHT WHERE IT

HAVE HAD MY JEEP FOR 6 YEARS ITS ALWAYS STALLING I TOOK IT TO JEEP CHRYSLER DODGE, FIRESTONE NOBODY CAN FIGURE OUT WHATS WRONG; IT ACTUALLY TURNS ITSELF OFF AND NOBODY KNOWS WHY. THIS IS DANGEROUS THIS CAR NEEDS A RECALL. I HAVE READ THAT 2012 MODELS DO THIS SAME THING BUT THIS ONE DOES IT TOO.ALSO THE SUNROOF LEAKS AS WELL AND THE RAINWATER GOES INTO THE LIGHTS. I WOULD NEVER RECOMMEND A JEEP TO ANYBODY EVER AGAIN, THESE CARS ARE NOT SAFE AND NO ONE CARES ABOUT THIS PROBLEM.I HAVE PAID TO GET I

2008 JEEP PATRIOT 5 SPEED MANUALS ARE HAVING CLUTCH RELATED ISSUES CAUSED MY CLUTCH MASTER OR SLAVE CYLNDER FAILURES. THE VEHICLE SUDDNELY STOPS OR NOT ABLE TO CHANGE GEAR WHILE DRIVING. I WAS LUCKY THAT I HAD THAT HAPPEN WHILE I WAS IN MY PARKING. THE CLUTCH RESERVOR IS SHARED WITH BRAKE AND CLUTCH. THERE ARE SO MANY 2008 PATRIOT OWNERS WHO ARE HAVING SAME PROBLEMS. IN ADDITION, WHEN EITHER CLUTCH OR BRAKE MASTER CYLINDER FAILS, BRAKE FAILS TOO. I HAD TWO ACCIDENTES EARLIER WHEN BRAKES DIDN'T W

DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AT 50 MPH AND THE CAR STALLS LEAVING NO POWER STEERING. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR THE PAST 2 YEARS. LAST TIME I LOST CONTROL AN HAD A ACCIDENT . VERY DANGEROUS . PLEASE HOW DO YOU CORRECT THE PROBLEM SOMEONE GOING TO GET KILLED. *TR

17/OCTOBER 2015 3:00 PM THERE WAS A FIRE IN THE FUEL LINE OVER THE MOTOR. OVER THE 4 INJECTOR SENSORS THE LINE CUT AND SPLASH GASOLINE. IN THIS MOMENT, THE MOTOR WAS OFF AND THE KEY WAS NOT IN THE IGNITION. IN THIS MOMENT JUST AN EXTINGUISHER WAS USED THE DAMAGE WAS A LINE CUT OVER THE MOTOR 2.4. THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY OVER 10 MINUTE IN THE YARD OF CLUB LIONS OF GUAYANILLA TOWN OF PUERTO RICO COUNTRY 00656 AREA CODE.

I MADE A U-TURN IN MY VEHICLE ON A TOWN STREET , AS I COMPLETED THE U-TURN THE VEHICLES REAR SUSPENSION BROKE. THE BROKEN SUSPENSION MADE THE VEHICLE FEEL LIKE IT WAS GOING OVER A RUMBLE STRIP, THE SUSPENSION BEING BROKE MADE THE WHEELS TURN IN TOWARDS THE WHEEL WELLS WHERE IT RUBBED AND EVENTUALLY BLEW MY TIRE. I WAS LOOKING FOR A PLACE TO PULL OFF SAFELY. WHEN I FINALLY GOT IT TOO A AUTO SHOP THEY TOLD ME THE SUSPENSION RUSTED IN TWO .IT HAD TO BE MOVED WITH A FLAT BED. I HAD THE VEHICLES FRON

SUDDENLY CAR SLOWED TO 40 MILES PER HOUR IN THE MIDDLE OF FAST RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC ON SOUTHBOUND HIGHWAY TEN IN CHANDLER. CARS SWERVED OUT OF WAY...I HAD NO IDEA WHAT WAS HAPPENING AND COULD NOT GET OUT OF TRAFFIC FOR ANOTHER FIVE MILES....PROBLEM COULD NOT BE FOUND UNTIL I DISCOVERED THE LEMON CVT (TRANSMISSION) INSTALLED IN CERTAIN PATRIOTS. ALSO, LESS THAN A YEAR LATER A STARTER FIRE WHILE DRIVING..HAD GONE LESS THAT A MILE AFTER THE CAR WAS SITTING...AND IT WAS NOT OVER 85 DEGREES AT THE TIME

I HAD TO HAVE THE SUBFRAME AND CROSS MEMBER REPLACED ON MY 2008 PATRIOT IN JANUARY 2017, IT HAS RUSTED AGAIN AND THE SAME PARTS NEED REPLACED, IT WAS REPLACED OE PARTS WHICH I FEEL WERE FAULTY. I WAS MAKING A U-TURN ON A SMALL CITY STREET AND MY REAR CROSS MEMBER BROKE, I THOUGHT I RAN OVER A SOMETHING THEN MY STEERING WHEEL SHIMMED , MY TIRES THAT WERE HELD IN THE CROSS MEMBER WERE NOW TILTED IN TO MY CROSS MEMBER MAKING BLACK SMOKE. MY TIRE RUBBED ON MY WHEEL WELL UNTILL BLEW . I WAS VERY LUCK

TOOK VEHICLE IN POSSIBLE SHOCK REPLACEMENT, TIRE BALANCING AND/OR NEW TIRES. WAS NOTED THAT THE CROSSMEMBER WAS ALMOST RUSTED THROUGH AND WAS IN NEED OF IMMEDIATE REPLACEMENT. WHEN CHECKED FOR SERVICE BULLETINS, WAS FOUND THAT THE 2007 PATRIOTS ARE UNDER RECALL FOR THIS VERY ISSUE. CONSIDERING THIS IS A 2008 PATRIOT, BUILT IN 2007, IT SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL.

2008 JEEP PATRIOT STALLS SHORTLY AFTER FILLING UP THE FUEL TANK. BOUGHT IT USED, AND ON THE FIRST FILL UP, GOT ABOUT .5 MILES BEFORE ENGINE STALLED. ON MY SECOND FILL UP, ON DECEMBER 29, 2017, IT STALLED AGAIN AFTER FILLING THE FUEL TANK AND DRIVING IN MODERATE TRAFFIC. AGAIN AT APPROXIMATELY .5 MILES. THIS WAS MORE SERIOUS AS IT WAS IN TRAFFIC AND COULD HAVE CAUSED A MAJOR ACCIDENT. THIS WAS MORE A CONCERN FOR ME AS MY FAMILY WAS IN THE VEHICLE AS WELL.

OUR JEEP PATRIOT THIS PAST YEAR HAD BEEN STALLING AFTER GETTING GAS. THIS HAPPENS NOW AFTER EVERY TIME WE GET GAS. IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MUCH 1/4, 1/2, OR FULL TANK. WHAT MAKES THIS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE, IS THAT IS STALLS AT ANY TIME, PARKED OR DRIVING AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. WITH NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT AS A WARNING, MY DAUGHTER PUT GAS IN APPROXIMATELY A MONTH AGO AND AFTER AN HOUR DRIVING, IT STALLED ON A BUSY STREET TRAVELING AT 55 MPH, WHICH INTERRUPTED THE STEERING AS IT DECELERATED ON A HIGHWA
