“The sunroof leaks into the headliner while parked or in motion, the water eventually finds its way into the front dome light which then precedes to leak all over the radio and climate control knobs. This has happened multiple times to my vehicle and seems to be a nation wide problem with patriots in most model years. The most recent episode ruined my radio and I'm afraid to install another because this will eventually happen again and again.”

“About 2 weeks ago I was working on brooklyn. I got out of work at 8 and the roads were bad as I was going down jefferson rd my car started sliding so I just let the car go because I couldn't stop it is inevitable. So my car hit the ditch by the church. I was paranoid but I knew I was fine so I was able to take my car out of the ditch and I got down and checked it and everything was fine but the radiator was leaking my coolant. So I got in my car and drove carefully and slow until I got home. I got my radiator fix because is the only car that I have to move around. …”
