2014 Jeep PATRIOT Vehicle Speed Control Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1389155
Internal NHTSA #	11002926
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	JEEP
Model	PATRIOT
Model Year	2014
File date	03/07/17
Component	VEHICLE SPEED CONTROL
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	When vehicle operates in mountainous highways requiring 3000-3500 rpm for continuous long grade, or a series of smaller grades which heat the transmission. The computer is automatically programed to shut down the vehicle . This occurs without regards traffic, road conditions or safety. We bought the vehicle last year and have recorded 55 separate occasions of such operating hazards. This activity leaves the stranded vehicle at the edge of the roadway for prolonged periods of time as traffic flies by at excess of 65 mph or higher. The stranded vehicle represents a hazard to both the occupants of the vehicle as well as the vehicles in transit nearby. These stops for the vehicle can be as long as thirty minutes for cool down. The dangers posed by this activity are greatly enhanced when this occurs at night. Traffic stopped with lights at roads edge are often confused with a moving vehicle and drivers plow into the rear of the stranded vehicle unknowing it is at a dead stop. These computer generated stops are inherently dangerous. The manufacturer is aware an unable to make the drive line modifications that would eliminate the dangers posed by this defect in engineering. It is hard to believe that this problem was not made aware to the manufacturer in testing trials of these particular vehicles. Please help us with this lemon!!!
