    Hello. I recently noticed a leak in the interiour of my 2008 Pat. On the bottom of drivers side and rear right bottom is soaked. It did rain a lot here in Holland the last time. Does anyone know if the grate below the front window can cause this problem? Maybe a glogged drainpipe? See...

    I heard a story about a woman who claims to have survived a week off the coast only on the water from her radiator. I cannot imagine a scenario in which a passenger vehicle would be sold in North America without some coolant in the radiator. Even if the vehicle had a brand new, completely...

    So this is a bit odd, but when I was replacing my control arm earlier this month, I accidently unbolted the crossmember instead of the vertical bushing (I was distracted by a wasp on my leg). When I pulled the bolt out though, a bunch of water came out of the crossmember. Has anyone had this...

    So sometimes when it rains heavy(like today) I get a horrible sound/vibration from the exhaust, the revs drop, and the Jeep begins to stall. It seems like water maybe getting into the muffler somehow. When I first got the Jeep and took it around my in-laws backyard(mild off-road) in the snow...

    I'm new to this sight and considering buying the new 2011 Patriot. My major concern is the water leaking issue. Do you suppose the issue has been solved for the 2011 models, or will time only tell?:confused:

    Hi folks, Just wanted to share this with you as I believe it may help some folks and perhaps save a few of you some money to boot. We've all read the numerous topics about Patriot water leaks on this website, some of the cases are unique but most, the vast majority, are sunroof-related. What...

    I have a 2008 without a sunroof and no leaks until 42000 miles. I installed the Sport Roof Rack cross bars bought from a Jeep Dealer with a lifetime warranty. I started getting water in the rear drivers floorboard. Took to Jeep, out of warranty. They said it was my fault because I installed the...

    Many under estimate their abilities when it comes to fixing their leak problem. We can often do a better job than the dealership when fixing what is really a low-tech issue. Hole=leak No hole=no leak After reading the posts on this group I removed some of the trim after looking at the service...
