| Description of the problem | 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!!! |
