From sunny South Africa...Hello! everyone

I have been lurking on the forum for a couple of weeks and decided I best join this awesome site.
I recently purchased a RHD 2012 Jeep Patriot Limited 2.4L CVT AT 4x4 and I am very content with the Jeep, accept for the accelerator lag.
The jeep is in a very condition with low mileage and full service history.
Just added a Thule tow hitch.

I am currently awaiting jeep accessories and original Mopar parts to be delivered to South Africa namely:

  1. Kasei Bull Bar
  2. Mopar Cargo Area Security Cover-Slate (needed replacement)
  3. Mopar Molded Cargo Tray
  4. Mopar Mud Flaps front and rear


Pending:
The radio fitted to the jeep Patriot is the 230/REQ without the Uconnect module it has the Uconnect buttons on the radio. As I travel quite a lot a hand free kit is a necessity, I am undecided adding the # 82212499 Uconnect Bluetooth Kit or adding the Astrium GEE-0809...decisions decisions decisions:confused:

As mentioned the only disappointing issue I have with the Jeep patriot is the accelerator lag, I have read members have added a throttle booster (sprint booster) need to look at this in depth.

Thats me for now, Thank you for allowing me to be part of an awesome forum

Manny
