“I was driving my car and the front end started to shake all over the road. I took it to my repair shop where they informed me that my lower ball joints need to be replaced immediately due to being excessively worn out and in a dangers condition.”
NHTSA complaint #10467931, filed 2012-07, 42,534 miles“I began to hear a humming sound from my rear wheel after doing research Jeep patriots are experiencing a tremendous amount of wheel bearing failures at low mileage. The dealer does not have the part in stock and they've superseded the part number 4 times, which tells me that chrysler knows there is an issue and has been unable to re engineer the wheel bearing correctly.

NHTSA complaint #10519904, filed 2013-06, 75,000 miles“Purchased this vehicle in may of 2012. Vehicle makes large rattling racket when going over any type of dirt road/brick road and a clunk when going over large bumps (speed bumps). Have taken to mechanic several times - turns out the large clunk was the ball joints...they were completely worn at 48000 miles which in turn changed the alignment of my wheels - as well as after driving it a mere 10000 miles made both front tires completely bald.”
