When i am driving on the freeway or street the car seems that wants to stop and feel that is loosing power; than it does like a jumper and keep going and it has happened many times. the dealer seems that do not find anything. also the back door of the car keep getting lock and not able to open
Traveling 40 mph engine misfires check engine, throttle body, and traction warning lights on. vehicle will not accelerate. turn off engine resets throttle body and traction control warning lights check engine light remains on vehicle accelerates normally. check engine code = u0401 invalid data received from engine control module/powertrain control module a. 84,000 miles
The partriot randomly stalls while travelling at any speed. the engine shuts off and car has to coast to a stop. it is extremely dangerous and only a matter of time before someone is injured or killed. multiple mechanics and the jeep dealership have no clue as to how to fix the problem. online research shows this is a major issue for many jeep owners, not just patriots. jeep / chrysler has a major issue and will not acknowledge or address it. if they refuse to do anything, they should be prepared to pay for their lack of addressing this critical issue. it takes less than a minute to search and see how many people are affected with engine stalling issues with jeep automobiles. i hope the nhtsa will conduct a thorough review of these issues and force more attention to be given to the serious issue. i bought this car for my daughter and now we can't let her drive it because it is too dangerous. we have spent over $2k trying to address this issue. there are no recalls or other assistance that jeep can or will offer.
Takata recall: as you drive this vehicle the engine will slightly stall out and hiccup. also causing the transmission to jitter slightly but noticeably so. it does it whether its hot, cold regardless. i feel as if this vehicle is affected by the engine recall because it does stall and stutter while driving.
Car loose aceleration ,stall and a ligth came on in dash board on a city st
Throttle track and engine light come on and off. car will not accelerate no more than 30 rpm when it happens it may also accelerate on its own when foot on break .
I have a 2014 jeep patriot sport 2.0l 4cyl wuth a cvt transmission. i bought it used certified in feb 2018. about a month into owning the vehicle it started to buck and jerk. the car shakes while on idle and there is a loud helicopter sound coming from the back of the car. i took to to 3 different jeep dealer and nobody could tell me what was wrong with the car. about 3 months after that the engine stalled without any warning. this happened as i turned on my street to go home. i had to wait a few minutes and it turned it back on and drove as if nothing happened. i took it to local mechanic and he could not find anything wrong with the car. the vehicle was not firing any codes nor was there any warning lights on the dash. the latest incident happend on august 18, 2019 drving home from a camping trip. i had 2 passengers in the car with me.the car bucks and jerks while on the highway and the car stalls while im drving the speed limit at 60 mph. thankfully i was in the slow lane and was able to pull over to the right. after being all shaken up, again i had waitied a few minutes and car started and drove as if noting happend. it was one of the scariest things i have ever experienced. i have taken it to local mechanics and they dint know whats wrong with it. so i am currently drving my car and wondering when the car will stall again. it still bucks and jerks, feels like it will stall so i take my foot off the gas peddle and that seems to help. i no longer drive this car on the highway as i am scared to death of getting into a car accident. i strictly use this car to travel to and from work. i am tired of sending this car to the dealerships and mechanics with no resolutions. i want to trade this car in, but am afraid for the next person. i think this car needs to be recalled. these cars should not be on the road period!!
Electronic throttle control light began to go off. rpms were running higher than normal. after the sensor triggered twice, no problems other than rmps running high. 5 days after the initial warning light, upon stopping at a traffic light and resuming acceleration, check engine came on, then electronic throttle control, then traction control. this continued to happen every time the car had to decelerate or stop and the rpms dropped below 1. at one point, it stalled. i had to pull over, stop the car and restart it. if you were driving on a highway with continuous gas there wasn't a problem. the diagnostic repair is the throttle body housing needs to be replaced.
Engine started to overheat after a weekend drive. warning light came on as we were parking. took it in to get coolant temperature sensor replaced, coolant flush, and thermostats replaced. come to find out the head gasket blew and damaged the piston rings. i need a new engine! there was no warning of high engine temperatures until 5 seconds before we parked! car was always maintained. the engine had 79,000 miles.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 jeep patriot. while driving various speeds, the vehicle abruptly decelerated to 10 mph and experienced an immediate loss of power. after the deceleration occurred, the check engine, traction, and electronic throttle control warning indicators illuminated. the vehicle was towed to lindsay chrysler dodge jeep ram (8100 centreville rd, manassas, va 20111, (888) 241-6888) where it was diagnosed that the throttle needed replacement. the contact stated that this same part had previously been replaced. the dealer informed the contact that they would notify the manufacturer of the failure. the failure mileage was 87,000.
2014 jeep patriot is stalling when trying to accelerate, especially uphill. it is also stalling after slowing down and then accelerating again. while going uphill recently the vehicle sputtered to climb uphill. luckily the vehicle has not completely stalled out yet. this mostly happens on city street however when getting onto the on ramp it sputters to accelerate sometimes and also if traffic comes to a stop on the highway and i try to accelerate again. i have no idea what is causing this. i have completed regular maintenance on the car so this has come out of nowhere. i see previously there was a recall for a loss of oil pressure which could cause the vehicle to stall but i'm not sure if my vehicle went through this recall.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 jeep patriot. while driving 60 mph, the electronic stability control warning indicator illuminated and the vehicle stalled. the driver was able to coast the vehicle onto the side of the road. the vehicle was restarted and driven, but the failure recurred the following day. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer or an independent mechanic for diagnostic testing. the vehicle was not repaired. the manufacturer was notified and stated that the vin was not included in a recall. the approximate failure mileage was 70,000.
While driving on the highway with air condition running. i hear an electrical sound that reminds me of a remote control car. my jeep then proceeds to overheat and stalls while i'm driving . i have to sit on the side of the road for 15-20 minutes then try to drive again . this has happened multiple times most recently memorial weekend 2019. i have taken my jeep to the dealership but they say they can not find anything wrong
Having issues with jeep stalls when driving. has couple recalls took it in for repairs. dealer said it was fixed and still have same issue.
I was driving very slowly on a side street near a park. i made a u-turn and as i finished coming out of the turn, my vehicle engine stalled. i was able to coast off of the road. i was nearly hit by another vehicle.
Engine throttle component light came on going appr. 45 mph. idling while driving. patriot at 85,000 miles.
My engine had been on for a couple of weeks and then today as i was driving the red flash light came on which when i read my manual, it's my etc. my jeep started slowing down and i pulled off to the side of the road and turned my jeep off and read my manual. it stated i could continue to drive and get it service. i drove it home. as i read the complaints on here for the same thing, this should have been a recall or should be now, because it is very dangerous if it accelerates on it's on and can't stop.
Throttle body assembly malfunction: while driving 2014 jeep patriot at approximately 40 mph in a semi-residential area, shortly after exiting the highway, experienced a sudden loss of speed and steering control. red bolt illuminated on dashboard. car would not accelerate past 15 mph and steering and braking became difficult. car immediately towed to repair shop where the throttle body assembly (part 68420395aa) was replaced with a factory part. after reviewing other complaints, this seems like a common problem with the referenced part, and owner/driver is not satisfied with the resolution of replacing a faulty part with with a faulty part for a total of $800. mileage on car at time of tba failure = 69,850 with no previous indicators of upcoming failure. further resolution is needed to ensure safety of all drivers.
While driving my 2014 jeep patriot, the car started losing power while accelerating uphill, it also veered off the road, like it was steering itself. the check engine light and a red lightning bolt appeared on the dashboard. thankfully i wasn't far from my mechanic and i was able to drive it to my mechanic where it was diagnosed as needing a throttle body. this could be an extremely dangerous situation.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 jeep patriot. while driving, the vehicle started losing acceleration and power. the contact heard a noise coming from the engine compartment. the vehicle was towed to an independent mechanic who suggested the vehicle be taken to a dealer. the vehicle was taken to zeigler chrysler dodge ram (3939 stadium dr, kalamazoo, mi 49008, (269) 743-4142) where it took several days to be serviced. the manufacturer was contacted and provided a case number. the contact stated that there was no recall for the failure and stated that the engine contained debris, which caused it to seize. through online research, the contact discovered that this was a wide spread issue. the contact was still waiting to hear back from the manufacturer and the dealer regarding the next steps. the failure mileage was 80,100.
My jeep patriot is 5 years old and already i had the throttle body go bad, stalled out in the middle of the freeway and i was going about 60 mph jerked me and my passenger, had it replaced also the abs module control which also gave out 2 months later while i was driving, very dangerous, car still not running good!! car sat for 3 months after incident
I took the car to have a diagnostic test done and it said the throttle body control and my car loses power without notice.
I have the same exact problem as everyone else. the throttle lightning bolt flashes, car wont shift or do more than 35. it wont respond to accelerating. it jerks all over the place when at a low speed. i went off of the road in the snow but was ok. when it first started it kicked into a lower gear, jerked and the car slid. you are going to get people killed ignoring this and now here is written proof that you have been warned. do hear that, chrysler? because youre about to.
Same complain as everyone else. my jeep patriot 2014 suddenly lost power and started jerking while driving not allowing me to accelerate. three lights came on the throttle control warning light, engine and traction control light. replaced throttle body my self and i want my dang recall or a lawsuit filed because this could cause a major accident and lifes are involved.
When driving, car will suddenly shut down, and the red lightning bolt will come on as well as the traction control. the check engine light came on as well. it will be fine for a couple days, and then out of nowhere the issue will happen again. this is extremely dangerous as to where i lose control is unknown. i have researched this issue, and have found many people with this same issue. i see a lawsuit waiting to happen. i only have 51,000 miles on my car. this is ridiculous.
I've had 3 fuel pumps replaced and countless times my car hasn't started just because like now, which brought me here. this needs a recall immediately but every time i look there isn't one. i bought this car brand new in 2014 and it still only has 45,539 miles on it. a week ago i started my car & then it turned off. luckily i was at i've already had to replace the throttle body so with all of this we need a recall.
I have a 2014 jeep patriot latitude that has 48100 miles on it . its was fine up until know where it will stall out while driving and shut down and the stability light would come on . i would pull over and the car would restart . it has been happening a lot and its scary not to know when it will happen again . someone is going to get killed if the problem is not fixed . jeep should have a recall on the cars and fix the problem . the problem has happened while turning a corner and on streets and then went to stall out on a highway.
My jeep on numerous occasions now has completely shut off the engine. the moments i'm in traffic are lucky, because when it happened on the freeway, i lost my s@$t. i was in a very scary situation and extremely lucky to have had pulled away without being or causing an accident. seems to happen when i'm in traffic, at slow moving speeds, and on the freeway, intermittently. sometimes it will kick back on before i have to pull off. but always in traffic if it happens it will completely shut off. no real pattern at all, just random.
Many, many times this jeep has overheated while driving up steep grades and all power shuts down the car eventually stops.
Jeep stalls while driving at differant speeds with out warning. my jeep has done this maney times wether going 60 or 40 on the highway or in a small town. had the dealer look at it they had it for a hour and said there was nothing wrong with it .has done it since then meny times.

Tkata recall. i own a 2014 jeep patriot and have had nothing but trouble which started just a couple months after i purchased it new. the first issue was the transmission hose came off while i was driving down the highway. this caused the car to stall and i was nearly unable to control the car to get pulled over. the dealership replaced the hose clamp, filled with transmission fluid and released it back to me. had i known what hell i would be dealing with afterwards i would have never brought it back home. i now have electrical issues (i believe). the car will overheat within minutes of driving it. i have no heat. the etc light comes on often and the engine light is now a constant. i have had it to the repair shop to many times to count now and they are unable to figure it out. jeep has offered no assistance and states that there are no other issues like mine, but when i look at blogs there are thousands. i feel dooped by jeep. this complaint is my last resort because i do not know what else to do. i have tried to trade this car but the amount i owe and being that this car is of zero value due to all of the issues, it is almost impossible to trade in. someone please help!!!
Already on the highway driving at 70 mph, i noticed that it was harder to accelerate. i was pushing down on the gas pedal and my jeep was not picking up any speed. the tachometer was pushing the line in read between 7 & 8 as i would try to accelerate. couple days later driving in town, it did it again only it took awhile to accelerate and get to 30-40 mph. engine light came on and immediately took it to auto-zone to have it diagnosed. they told me to unplug the battery and have it sit for a couple of days to see if the engine light came off. week later i'm still stuck without my vehicle. reported it to mopar and they advised me to take it to the dealership and have it fixed. my jeep only has under 90k miles on it. i'm hoping this issue becomes a recall being that the stories have begun to surface late november 2018.
While driving my car began jerking and the throttle control indicator light began flashing and my car lost power unable to accelerate. this is the second time this has happened to this car, the first time being 1 year prior coming down a mountain. it was fixed and now here i am again with the same problem!
Jeep slowed down to 20 mph engine light, electronic stability control light and electronic throttle control light came on was on interstate going 70 mph scared the crap out of me .pulled over and restarted jeep and went on vehicle was running rough lights still on got to exit . and went to auto store they checked the codes and took it to dealer and throttle body and gasket and throttle body assembly have to be replaced cost of 490.43 the dealer auto store code machine read invalid data received from engine control module power train control module a. comfimed
While driving in the city at about 30 mph my etc light comes on and car starts to slow and will not let me accelerate. also as soon as i stop and start to go my car moves very slowly about 10mph and sometimes the etc light and stability control light will come on and my car will not accelerate over 15/20mph at all until i stop and try to go again. sometimes it's so bad that i have to stop and shut off my car and start it again for it to fix itself. this is very dangerous especially when going across the road or turning when other cars are coming. never mind how dang it is if it is to happen on the highway, which i have avoided since i don't feel like dying anytime soon. everything i read on the internet is saying that it's been happening to many people that have 2014 jeep patriots. this is honestly something that is going to get someone seriously hurt and at no fault of their own. i've also read about a recall on an engine part from 2013 in the 2014 patriots with a 2.4l engine and i am just wondering why when i look up recalls for my car that specific one does not show up. if something is wrong and needs to be replaced owners should be notified before someone gets hurt.
Takata recall this is the 2nd time this happened 3 months apart. today i was going 45 mph driving for 3 minutes and my track light, battery light, and engine light came on and i lost pressure in the acceleration and could only move 20 mph. i pulled over to turn my car off and back on, then it worked like nothing was wrong. this also has happened 3 months ago on the bypass going 70 mph and i had children in the car. i thought we were going to die. so we pulled off the road to let it cool down and all the lights went away and ran as if nothing was wrong. very scary.

Throttle body housing failure: while driving to work on an interstate with speed limit of 60mph, vehicle would decelerate from 50mph down to 20mph and would not speed up regardless of how i pressed the gas pedal. the esc, etc, and mil indicators began to flash and the vehicle would not speed above 20-30mph. i had to have the vehicle towed to a local dodge dealer who diagnosed the issue as needing a replacement throttle body housing at a cost of $880 for that repair and replacement of a leaking coolant / radiator hose.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 jeep patriot. while driving 20 mph, the vehicle decelerated without the brake pedal being depressed. also, the electronic throttle control warning indicator illuminated. the vehicle was taken to rentschler chrysler jeep dodge ram (255 n walnut st, slatington, pa 18080, (610) 767-1171) where the contact was informed that the warranty was expired. the vehicle was also taken to an independent mechanic where it was diagnosed that the throttle body needed to be replaced. the vehicle was currently at the independent mechanic for repairs. the manufacturer was made aware of the failure. the failure mileage was 25,000.
Vehicle sputters when accelerating as if losing oil pressure. it's significant enough to not want to turn or pullout into traffic unless there is a large and safe distance between other vehicles from fear of stalling or just not accelerating fast enough.
Loss of power upon acceleration. diagnostic revealed defective throttle body and accelerator pedal sensor requiring replacement. mechanic says it is a very common problem with 2014 jeep patriot and that they have replaced many on this vehicle
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 jeep patriot. while driving at an unknown speed, the vehicle stalled and the slip indicator, check engine, and throttle control indicators illuminated. the vehicle was towed to the contact's residence. the vehicle was not taken to a dealer; however, an independent mechanic came to the contact's residence, reset the vehicle, and changed the oil. the contact stated that the failure recurred a week later. the manufacturer was notified of the failure and confirmed that the vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 13v552000 (engine). the approximate failure mileage was 67,000.
Takata recall. my car has around 35,000 miles on it. the past few days in the morning, when i start my car, it starts but then hesitates. it will hesitate for around 20 seconds. the car was in park, in a driveway of a house. i think it only happens when the car has been off for a period of time.
The vehicle starts to rev up really high and then begins to put alone turn it off the light goes out the five minutes into driving and comes back on and almost cuts off in mid traffic
While driving at a low speed or idling at a stop sign the vehicle will shut off without warning. when this happens i must put my car in park, shut the car completely off, then restart, sometimes this happens multiple times in one day. this has happened while on city street, highways, while turning and while stopped, it has become unsafe and unreliable to drive. i am still unaware of what the issue is and have replaced several components on the vehicle that i think could have been linked: battery, throttle body, spark plugs, cam sensors, runner valve, and the catalytic converter. none of these replacements has fixed this issue. there is a recall for this issue with jeep (n52) and when i called to tell them my vehicle is having this issue they just told me they would make a note, and they could not authorize a recall on my vehicle. i asked them if i took it into the jeep dealership to get a diagnostic and they found this to be the issue could they issue they recall then they told me no and it would have to come out of my own expenses.
Tl* the contact owns a 2014 jeep patriot. while driving 40 mph, the vehicle began to hesitate. the vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic who stated that the failure was due to nhtsa campaign number: 13v552000 (engine). the dealer and manufacturer were not notified. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the failure mileage was 53,000.
My car is 5 years old. during highway drives (1-2 hours), the engine stalls in the middle of the highway and is unable to maintain speed. this has happened several times. i am concerned about the safety of this vehicle.
I have a 2014 jeep patriot with about 33,474 miles when the problem occurred. i was driving going home in a busy street in los angeles when all of a sudden the malfunction indicator light (mil) and electronic stability control (esc) (see photos) light showed up on the dashboard and i stopped because the traffic light turned red. i had 3 passengers with me and they were trying to google what the dashboard light means. when the light turned green, i started to drive but the engine was stalling, as if it doesn't want to drive, no power. so i parked at the curb, turned off the ignition and waited for a few seconds then turned the ignition on again. the esc disappeared from the dashboard but the mil remained lit up. i was able to drive home and the next day, took the vehicle to my mechanic. my mechanic replaced the throttle body and it's working fine now. i noticed the difference in the performance of the vehicle before and after the throttle was changed. i am reporting this to you because i have heard news and got a letter from a law firm informing me of a number of mechanical defects reported about the vehicle. at this point, i am too late to bring it to a jeep dealer for repair because the vehicle is out of warranty.
