hey all, firstly, I'm new here, so take it easy on me! Secondly, I drive a 2016 Patriot Sport FDII. Couple questions here: I'm looking to upgrade the brakes. I know that my rotor size is 262mm in the rear, but I know that the diesel imports have a 302mm rear rotor. My question is: would there...

ABS and Traction Control lights would intermittently illuminate simultaneously, but have been steady ON for a couple months. I had a service technician evaluate when I had my 2010 Patriot in for tire replacement and alignment. I suspected that I had a bad rear wheel speed sensor. Here is what...

Had my Patriot out in the snow today, about 3 inches but everything was really slick. This is my first time having it in the snow since I purchased it. My road was unplowed, so I pulled the 4WD lock lever while sitting at the top of my driveway. I'm not 100% sure how the 4wd system works, but...

Loud airplane noise coming from rear. There is no play in either tire, no excessive heat and the vehicle drives completely normally. I did have to replace inside rear brake pad on that same side the noise is coming from but that did not cure the issue. I find it curious that, that pad wore down...

Hey, My Jeep Patriot has just started sounding loud, like driving over a bad grating road. The handling seems the same. The engine runs quiet when stopped. The brakes seem to work the same. As you go faster, it gets louder. I walked along side outside as the car moved slowly. Might be...

Had a scraping noise right rear. Looked like the caliper wasn’t sliding at all... causing rotor grooves and uneven pad wear. Changed out all three caliper rotor and pads and the scraping came back ... any ideas?

I have a 2013 latitude and had my first set of full replacement brakes at 68,000 miles then again around 90,000+ miles and now at 127,000 the rotors are warped once again. I do a decent amount of highway driving but have never had a vehicle needing replacement brakes this often. Mechanics...

My Jeep has for some time squeak while braking. It's not very loud, but i did get new brake pads about 6 months ago and probably have less than 2,000 miles on them. They said the pads were fine but i still am wondering what it squeaks. It is usually when i'm coming to a stop from under 25mpn...

FIXED!! I greased my rear drum brakes. I found a tutorial on youtube on how to grease it properly. I really thought the noise came from the front since I only listened from inside the car. I greased the front brakes anyways just to make sure. A friend told me it definitely came from the back. NO...

When driving on a snowy/icy surface, my Patriot's brakes will rumble like an earthquake and the pedal with bounce up and down and I am unable to push it in all the way. Is this normal or is there something wrong?

Hi everyone, I've been reading through the threads about e-brake cable adjustments, no pressure in clutches and soft brake pedals. I actually have none of these symptoms other than the e-brake light going on solid about 20 minutes into the drive. I understand a blinking e-brake means your...

Ok so, my 2010 pat has been having this issue for awhile now. It's been fixed off and on but keeps coming back. Their is a vibration while driving above 65mph and while braking. Changed my rear rotor/pads 6 wks ago. Yesterday the outside pad has worn down to the metal. Replaced them today...

Good day, I arrived to Hawaii Feb 14th with the Army and have purchased a second car for my new son to travel in easier. I recently purchased a 2013 Jeep Patriot and have only had the vehicle under a month. Within a matter of days it started to lock up. My steering, brakes, and engine would...

Heya all, Proud owner of a 2008 Jeep Patriot Sport that I purchased from an auction a cpl weeks ago. Loving the Jeep so far, but I have the misfortune of living in Winnipeg, Canada right now and whenever I need to brake quickly on the ice/snow the brake pedal goes all the way to the floor and...

Just had new rear brakes put on my 09 patriot 2WD manual. Mechanics, who I trust, told me that 99% of the time, it's the front brakes that go first. My front brakes are just past half worn, lots of city driving BUT I downshift a lot, because I can :) Tell me why my rears are wearing so fast...

I only have 500 miles on my Patriot and I am beginning to get used to the brakes but I have a question. First let me start off by saying I am comparing the brakes to using the brakes on a 2009 Dodge Caravan, a 2007 Chevy Impala, and a 2010 Dodge Journey. We traded the Dodge Caravan for the...
