| Description of the problem | When the vehicle slowed down and waited at intersection or middle lane, the engine shuts off by itself. When it is restarted, the power is back either immediately or after a few minutes. I read online and many many customers reported this problem, ranging from very new jeep patriot (less than 10,000 miles) to driving at high speed. The links are shown below: http://www. Carproblemzoo. Com/jeep/patriot/automatic-transmission-control-module-problems. Php https://www. Jeeppatriot. Com/forum/5-jeep-patriot-general-discussion/92388-help-engine-shut-down. Html when i took it to the dealer, they can not figure out the causes. The last time, they said it is the transmission control module issue. Since so many customers reported this issue, this vehicle needs a recall. The unexpected shutoff is very dangerous. |
