I’ve had my 2016 Patriot for almost 5 years now bought it used, has had normal maintenance still runs great 😋
I think im about to buy one thats why im here but your comment made me more confident in my dicision thanks!
Have front and rear cross members checked. Just had my rear replaced along with radius arms and some suspension parts due to rust. Very expensive. Mine was past the 10 year warranty extension. Not sure what your warranty options would be with a used car.
Also, replace the PCV valve. It's cheap and easy to do, and it's routine maintenance that's makes a big difference in patriots.
Yep, 2016 and 17 they got it right. My 2016 is solid and what a find, the good transmission, back up cam, zero issues because timing chain and the best build of all the years.
My patriot has 230000 and still going strong 😊
Awesome. Is it 4wheel drive? What year is it?
Thank you for the info. I was very curious about buying one 🙏🙌
Mine just broke 300k and I just replaced a stock rotor,caliper and pads. theses are too slept on
With less technology in the patriot it is that much less to go wrong. I had a 2007 King Ranch second hand. What a nightmare. If the engine wasn't giving me issues, it was the electrical. My patriot is a stress relief.
I did all my brakes and rotors but that is normal wear and tear as I drive a lot in city traffic and use my brakes a lot.
mine is 2015, I had for 6 years now. I traveled 5 times out of town for over 900 miles each way, and now it has 77000 miles. The only maintenance I've done is changed the timing belt to be in the safe side, and I haven't faced any issues so far. I hope it continues running smoothly without any problems. 🥺🥺🥺🥺
Except the Jeep Patroit never had a timing belt.
@@davids.9834 the 2.4 has a chain?
Yea chain don't need to change 2,4 is gud
Jeep patriot: the ball joint buster
I just purchased a 2017 4wd patriot honestly I have no complaints.
Well you JUST purchased it. I’m actually thinking about getting one which is what brought me here.
@@sniff270 fuel tank could be bigger .
I’ve had a 2017 4wd 6spd automatic for 4 years, I’ve put right at 100k miles on it with zero complaints. It’s the perfect blend of city style with light overland ability for me. If you’re thinking of getting one just make sure you don’t get the CVT and that it’s a lower mileage, well cared for one.
Drive it carefully no rammy I fix one almost every week in last year, 70 yr old grandma owns it I did power steer pressure hoses, serp. belt and tension kit, lower a arms, just did leaking power steer rack ,now Pinion seal tomorrow, good luck oh she drives hell out of it and it has 140 km on it that isn't 90 thousand miles .
Take it back. Buy a Toyota.
I got my 2011 in 2020 . My mom gave it to me . She bought it new in 2012. It had 13000 kilometers. I now have 170 000 as I actually drive it. I have had no issues until just recently a control module in tbe steering column nothing that woukd make me hate this jeep. I do a lot of winter driving . It holds the road like a champ. It is quiet . Easy on fuel. 50 liter tank . Yes it is a simple interior but whatever. I was driving a newer Honda Acord. Mom told me to sell it. So I did. I miss all the perks but I am used to this jeep .
I just got a 2014 Jeep Patriot Latitude with 104k miles && for my first Jeep I’m in loveeee. She drives smooth as a baby 🥰🥲
I have a 2016 Patriot with FWD, a 2.4l inline 4, and 6 speed manumatic transmission. It's been fairly reliable, but the interior design is weird, and driving a sedan cosplaying as an SUV makes me feel like a poser. I took it off-road (through a very marshy front yard) once, and it was fine.
The best thing about it is the cargo space. I can get quite a few 8' 2"x4"s, about 4 4"x4"s, or a bunch of 8' PVC pipes. This has been useful numerous times
Manumatic eh?
Excellent Vidéo, thanks you just save my money 💰
I purchased one of the earliest "off road rated" Jeep Patriots in 2007. Very excited. Had wanted a Jeep for decades. New engine design. One of the first vehicles, I think, to specify 5W20. A few months after I bought it, Jeep increased the length of the engine warranty for new purchasers, but not early purchasers like me. I was suspicious. Jeep had narrowly avoided federal fines for having too low a fleet average MPG. They did so, solely with the inclusion of the Patriot, which got much better gas mileage than the other Jeeps in their lineup. I did some investigation, and learned Patriot owners in Europe were told to disregard the 5W20 oil recommendation in the manual to avoid premature engine failure. But US owners were NOT warned. In fact, our oil caps were embossed "5W20". So (IMHO) US owners' vehicles would be sacrificed so Jeep could avoid federal fines. I started asking mechanics to use 5W30, but got a lot of resistance due to the embossing on the cap. So I milled the embossed lettering off the cap. The car turned into a rust bucket before it hit 60K miles. It was a money pit. It was too fragile to keep on smooth paved roads. In fact I NEVER dared to take it on un-paved roads let alone off road. The only thing that didn't fail was the engine, because I used thicker oil. Despite all the repairs, I took a $20k beating on trade. Never again Jeep. Never. My advice? Steer wide of vehicles that specify thin oils for MPG.
Just about to buy one until I saw this video, their good-looking vehicles but I don't have time to work on it every month.
i just bought a 2016 jeep patriot 2.4 > 84,000 Miles > lifetime Powertrain > 4 year Warranty > > just need it to get by 5 years >> so the 4 year warrenty makes me very happy >> only put 87 miles on it
Where can I get the roof rack from
holy shit, mine stalls right after getting gas and had no idea why lol - now I know
Might just need the air vent on the tank looked at before getting crazy.
Occasionally? After the 12k mile warranty expired on my 2007 Freedom Drive 2 expired, I took more trips to repair shops than to work! Money pit. At 60K miles I'd replaced the control arms two times. Full brake jobs 3 times. Antilock brakes would activate (slam on and off hard) on dry pavement during the summer as I would negotiate a curve at 55MPH without even touching the brake pedals almost causing an accident. No one, including Jeep could fix it. Everything was severely rusted, including my crossmembers, which Jeep told me they wouldn't fix until the car collapsed! I figure I paid $3.40 a mile to drive that car, without including routine maintenance, insurance, oil and gas. In 60k miles I probably paid double for the car in repair costs.
The crossmember thing is a big deal. Recently had to have my 2012 patriot rear crossmember, radius arms and rear struts replaced. Very expensive as i was past the 10 year extended warranty. Wish id known to look for that issue sooner.
Have a reputable mechanic check a used Patriot before you buy, if youre considering one.
Mines at 107,000 miles, manual, wish me luck lol
Mine cant pass emission. Changed throttle body. Pedal tune up Batttery. Still check engine p0221 code also😅😅😅
Plugs n cat
Can you just replace one tire on jeep Patriot 4x4 if one goes bad?
Yes why would that be a problem lmao
Buying a 5 speed manual tomorrow. Is safe to say its not CVT because its a manual?
My ‘08 is NV T-355 5-Speed Manual, it’s not CVT. Did you get yours yet?
@@AaRonationNo I didn't. Dude sold it for a someone else who bought it for $800 more.
@@Manzilla56 Crazy. I’ve been there a bunch. Find a decent deal and someone’s always there to offer a lot more for these. Can’t find one I don’t have to rebuild in my area for under $3,000 now
@@AaRonation I found one with 30k during the pandemic for 6,000 dollars and it was sold the next day.
I just bought a 2012 passport 4 x 4 is that money well spent over that give me problems of course we all want long-lasting low-maintenance but now that I know it's one of the lowest because it's one of the cheapest what is the sport more durable
Nothing but problems. Used to cut off while driving then after that was fixed refused to start now various electronics have been breaking one after another and it’s from 2016
What year models have the CVT??
My 2016 has a CVT
It was on all of them, but you could also buy the 6-speed traditional automatic transmission as well starting (I think) around 2014(?). I've been researching on and will only consider the 2.4L 4-cylinder and the traditional 6-speed auto. Found a few nice ones near me - all under $12k - with decent service records. Might need to pull the trigger on one soon.
2013 and previous years
@@m1cajahhow can you tell if it has a CVT or six speed? I'm looking at one now 2015 2.4
@@SeriouSXXFireworks If you take it for a test drive, if you never feel the gears actually shift over, its the CVT. Just gradually shifts up and down. Its not immediately obvious which transmission it has just by looking, as far as I know.
Beware the cvt
Should have been called the Jeep Traitor. Mall ready, lol.
The traction control system needs to be turned off each time you get in the vehicle to get 30 miles per gallon
Buy an old cherokee with a 4.0 straight 6 and youll have way less problems
Jeeps man…
Min3 only has 75k and it feels like its dieing. Anyone else?
New fliuds n plugs
@@TraveladvRajanSRai i will give that a try. Thanks.
That’s why everyone of those that come in my shop always needs tons money thrown at them for repairs unlike Toyotas need very little that’s why I drive a Toyota
Nice content just: That music drives me crazy in conjunction with a non-human voice. Awful ! No subscription therefore 🙄
Honestly it’s not even reliable my jeep has problems anywhere in it and mind you I drive it like a grandma you can’t even abuse it, one slight tap it feels like it’s gonna break down not even exaggerating I don’t know how these cars even were approved to come out production. My rear subframe was bad the suspension and ball joints the arms under to hold the wheels which I had eaten up tire thread. If anyone is thinking about jeep please don’t go the Honda or Toyota way even a early 2000’s or before 10 will work you so long
Agrees I’ve paid so much money to have repairs and I’m not even at 100000k miles
Buy a Toyota end your misery of owning a Chrysler product
All cars have problems. I bought a brand new 2023 Corolla and the transmission went out at 20k 🤷🏽 just to show you!
@@papabear3525 Yes, all cars have problems, but some have more problems than others.
Toyota is crazy expensive. I just need something good and simple
@@JadenKingCreations Toyota super reliable Chrysler products are not money pits come in at my work all the time always needing tons of work
Yeah I guess
Had to change the throttle body on mine, decided for the price difference to get one on Amazon instead of OEM/an auto shop and its been great for a year and a half. No more limp mode. Markings looked nearly identical to the OEM one I took off except for the date code so probably the same manufacturer.
What were the symptoms? What did the non-OEM unit cost you?
@@EdgarHammer847 the throttle would get stuck open especially on startup. When it didn’t, the car would often go into limp mode and not allow itself to even get to 25 mph. Check engine light and throttle light lit up on the dash. Got to the point where it did it every time I started the car. Replacement cost 75 dollars and tax, same day delivery. O’Reillys didn’t have a replacement in stock and Autozone wanted like 200.
240k km and shits still going strong only oil changes and one leaking cv axel 🤷♂️
