    Hi I’ve posted before about this same issue of my Patriot stuttering and sometimes dying, I first replaced the battery and when that didn’t fix the problem I took it to a shop and they diagnosed a bad engine computer so a month and 600$ later I got it back yesterday and at first it wasn’t doing...

    So I filled up my tank at the gas station today and when I went to turn it back on it just clicked once and shut down. Once I had someone helped me jump it the car then immediately shut down again. After jumping the car a second time it worked for a little while, until it shut off again while I...

    Hello All! The battery that came with my 2008 Pat (North) started dying on me over the summer as my car sat mostly unused in my parking spot. Even last winter I had to plug it in overnight. (Battery warming sleeve. I'm in Quebec, Canada, yup, it gets cold.) The battery had gotten worse, it can...

    So I replaced my battery, replaced my alternator, checked the fuses and then I found this.. The bottom of the fuse box. What do I do?
  8. Jeep Patriot General Discussion
    So basically whenever I accelerate, I hear an electronic whining sound. Everytime I accelerate it's goes slow, and makes that sound until I get to about 60mph. The other day my battery was having issues holding a charge and would die everytime I shut the car off. I'm not having any lights on the...

    Hi friends! My Patriot is making a super fun rattling noise while idling and at low RPMs. Truthfully, it's probably happening at higher RPMs as well but I just can't hear it as well during those times. After spending $400 for a tensioner pulley and two idler pulleys to be replaced, the sound is...

    Hi Everyone, Bear with me. Cars are not my specialty so I'm sorry if wording if improper and that my knowledge is limited. I purchased a 2010 jeep patriot in December of last year (2018) for around 7k (and some change) and it had around 104k miles on it. I moved to North Dakota temporarily...

    As a new car owner and not very experienced driver i'm having to learn about my lovely jeep very quickly! I bought my 2012 Patriot exactly 3 months ago today, as is from a used car dealership. It's already been in the shop 3 times since. First for a recall and oil change just a month afer I...
  13. Electrical and Audio
    I've been having a problem lately: When I push the gas pedal, the lights (interior AND exterior) all dim and flicker noticeably. This flickering seems to increase when I am reversing up (yes, uphill) my driveway (which makes sense, more force required). Gotta admit, I haven't looked into...

    i humbly turn you you folks yet again for advice on my cursed 08 patriot! so, it will start on a boost. but if you shut it off, and try to start it right away it will do nothing, wont turn over, not even a click. the lights go half dim for ten seconds this come all the way up, the cd player...

    So I have an early build 2007 Jeep Patriot that I've prior replaced the alternator on twice. I'm convinced the original alternator was poor quality in the dog days of the auto industry, the idler pully's and tensioner pullys failed as well with about 55k miles the replacement was a used one and...

    So I'm not new to the patriot I have owned mine since 2007 when they first came out and I love my jeep and will never get rid of it. I'll ride a jeep till the wheels fall off and then purchase a new one. I usually search these threads whenever I have an issue with mine. Mechanics these days are...
