| Description of the problem | My jeep patriot 2011, was driving perfectly fine, i started it up one saturday afternoon 2 weeks 1 day ago, while driving down the street 15 minutes into my drive, the jeep immediately stopped accelerating. The engine light, traction control light, and the other one with squiggly lines and brackets with an exclamation mark, came on 30 seconds after it just stopped accelerating. I had to cautiously turn into a parking lot, and i turned off the car. I looked at the manual, and couldn't find anything about what would be wrong. I then looked at google, and saw that alot of people have had the same issue. I turned the car back on, and tried to drive it, it would not accelerate, and would only go approximately 5km/h at best. So i had to have a tow truck come pick up my jeep and take it to a shop. I have now had 3 shops take a look at it. The first shop replaced the tcm (transmission control module), and said it would fix it. When the part came in and it was put into the jeep. It didn't fix it. Same issues, absolitely no help. They took another look at it, and they couldn't figure out what was wrong. Costing me 1000. 00 for the part, and their labour. Then i towed it to 2 other shops. They couldn't figure out what's was wrong with it either. Costing me 500$ at both places with no help, and my jeep still currently will not run!!! I am without a car. My jeep only has 80,000 km on it!!! And i still owe 3. 5 years worth of payments on it! But it cannot be fixed!!!??? No one can figure out what is wrong with it!!! Not even a jeep/dodge chrysler dealership services center!!! |
