I have the Patriot North 4x4 manual transmission and it made the list. I submitted in December, and received confirmation that they received my submission.....but no word back on when I get my cheque.

Ditto for me. Submitted in December and got my confirmation of documents received in early Feb. I called the number they listed, and they told me 12 weeks for the cheques to be "in the mail".

Update - called today and they said to call back if nothing received by March 18th.

Looks like I'm missing mine too. Oh well...just another loose end associated with this Chrysler product.
Do they all have that orange arrow? If so I may not worry about it, because I don't think it will look that good with the silver metallic paint of the body of the vehicle.
Do you think they malliciously left them off as a cost savings measure, and with the hopes that there are people out there stupid enough to pay $72 bucks for perhaps a 2 dollar item?

If your VIN checks out as a North at the dealer, they will order 2 badges for you. if you want a 3rd it will cost (about $35) - not worth it!

That would be ROTHESAY- just a few kms from the city.

Thanks to this thread, I realized I was missing my North Badges also. Hit the dealership and they're on their way

Yeah they all have the orange arrows on them... works for me cause my pat is SBO. But the orange isn't that noticable, I think it would look nice on a silver Pat.

got mine today at the dealership

My North didn't come with them on either but I told me dealer and they had them in the next two weeks (this was back in November). My arrows are a nice red, not orange; at least as far as I can tell. I think it adds some definition to my white Patriot.

And my bf thought I lost my mind....

Okay really I thought I was going crazy!!! I was positive I had bought a patriot north edition but was very confused when I didn't have my badges. After joining this forum and reading this I now actually realize I was right! I am going to the dealer tomorrow and getting my badges...DAMN RIGHTS IM PROUD! haha lol

Windows Freezing

RE: Post #26 I live in Michigan and have had similar window freezing problems... Has anyone found a work-around for this? (besides moving to a warmer climate!!!) I've found that even a light frost causes the windows to seize. Prior cars I've driven have had strong enough window motors to break free of moderate frost - my Patriot windows seem to have trouble with even a light frost.

I have a 2008 North Edition too (26E) without the badges. I like it without them. The badges seemed out of place so I asked the dealer to remove them prior to deliver.

Robot_Boy · Jun 2, 2008

We contacted the dealership when this thread first appeared. Still no badges. Contacted again today and were assured they would be here by the middle of the month... I don't think I'll hold my breath.

When dealerships order parts it literally only takes 1/2 a business day to get them parts. Trust me I know. I've worked in the parts department of both Honda and Dodge/Jeep/Chrysler dealerships about 5 years ago. I still have good friends working at dealerships and nothing has changed. This is obviously excluding those dealerships in the outskirts. Maximum delivery time for those dealerships is 2-3 business days tops.

So Robot_Boy I'd ask for a order confirmation # if I were you. Oh and if you really want them to get the ball rolling, tell them you will be getting your next scheduled service when the part gets in. LOL, that one always works!

I agree with Jeelo. As a dealer, I am not sure where they are getting the Pats with the north package, but no emblems. They should be shipped that way from the factory. After selling them ever since they rolled on to the lot, I have never seen a north package without a badge....Odd! Either way, unless you live in a far flung region of the north, you should recieve the badges within a couple of days

Can someone please clarify this for me?

early last week I took my patriot in for its first oil change and requested to have the north edition badges put on.

They checked the vin and ordered 1 badge and put it on the passenger door the next day.

I called them back to say that they forgot to put the 2nd badge on the driver side and the dealership in Mississauga commented that the north edition only gets 1 badge and if I want another badge put on the driver side, I would need to pay for it.

Is there any documentation that can be referred to saying that there are 2 north edition badges? to me its only common sense to have matching badges on both sides.

thanks!
