    I have a 2014 Patriot that I bought used and I've had it for close to 3 years and haven't needed to replace the throttle body, throttle actuator, etc. Yesterday night I drove to the grocery store just fine, then not even an hour later after finishing up, I feel my car jolting in the parking lot...

    I replaced my throttle body yesterday after months of the throttle light (red lightning bolt) coming on and sending the car into limp mode, restarting, and repeating the process over and over. Had the check engine light read and it said the throttle body was bad so I replaced it but the issue is...

    Greetings all, i have a 2015 jeep patriot that seems to be stuck in limp mode. Ive tried using a handheld to erase the codes and even leaving the battery disconnected overnight.

    I was having the rough idle issues for a month or so and after looking through the forum and watching some YouTube videos, I decided to decarbonize the throttle body on my own instead of paying $$ to have it done. The can of fluid was $9, so I figured I could figure it out and do it on my own. I...

    So I recently replaced the throttle body in 2011 Jeep Patriot, and I'm having a problem with the connector, it doesn't want to plug in all the way. I got it to work once and I believe it somehow wiggled itself out. The car runs the same with the connector completely disconnected. I was hoping to...

My fiancé has a 2012 Jeep Patriot 2.4L automatic transmission, with manual windows/lock, etc. The issue is that ONLY in the morning, the Jeep will crank, but not start.

    I have a 2016 Patriot and got the throttle body replaced about 3 years ago after my car suddenly started jolting and shutting off after coming to a stop. About 2 years ago I had the spark plugs replaced due to the Jeep not accelerating after reaching about 25-30 mph. Earlier this year, I noticed...

    Hi all! Hope everyone is well. I’m about to replace the throttle body on my 2014 patriot 2.4. I’m wondering if anyone has the wiring schematic for the plug. The last person to do it put an journey throttle body on and changed to a different connector. Any help is appreciated

    I put in three cans of gumout into my 2010 Jeep patriot 2.4 L Sport after it started jutting around badly while on the freeway. Scared me terribly as well. The rate was about every other tank fill up. The jutting stopped and then the throttle body blew out a month later. Is this cause and...
