| Description of the problem | I believe my vehicle should be repaired at the expense of the manufacturer as the symptoms i'm experiencing are identical to the issues addressed in tsb: nhtsa16v907000 from 2016/12/16 crankshaft sensor may fail causing engine stall. Apparently, my vin# was not included in the initial recall, yet my 2016 jeep patriot is demonstrating the exact problems cited in the initial recall. My symptoms include intermittent triggering of the vehicle to enter limp mode resulting in loss of ability to accelerate and drastic reduction of engine output power. Electronic throttle control light illuminates, sporadically. Engine idles roughly and/or at low rpms sporadically. Cycling the vehicle off and back on will sometimes result in the a return to normal vehicle performance, only to have the same issue resurface the next day. The crankshaft position sensor and its wiring harness, the intake camshaft position sensor, exhaust camshaft position sensor its wiring harness and electrical connectors and throttle body should all be replaced. In addition, the necessary computer reset/reprogramming should be performed as well. |
