“I can not fill the gas tank very fast with out the pump shutting off changed all other gas filters the problem I've been told is a faulty roll over valve inside the gas tank I've been told its common with this vehicle and maybe you could open an investigation to fix the problem will cost $800 to $1300 been dealing with this for four months and have dealt with it but with winter here its a lot extreme”

“Multiple times driving on the highway the CVT transmission fails and locks up. Going 70mph I suddenly lose acceleration completely and was almost rear ended by a semi. I can go about 45mph on the interstate for about a minute to find a spot to pull over. Luckily nobody was hurt and there was a place at that time to get out of the way of the semi barreling down the mountain behind me”

“My check engine light came on while I was driving on the highway. I took it to a mechanic and he told me it was for the catalytic converter. He then told me there was a recall for the catalytic converter for my car but I was never notified of it.”

“From the time I bought my Patriot, it would experience instances of slow acceleration. I took it in a couple times and they found nothing. On june 11, 2016, I had been driving around 65 MPH on I-285 and experienced some hesitation. I exited 285 to I-20 and then on to surface roads. I stopped at the kroger. As I parked the stability control, throttle sensor and check engine light came on. I turned to drive to the dealership and it wouldn't accelerate. They put the pod on it and it showed bad sensor. The guy said it was possibly the throttle body. …”

“Approximately two weeks ago my vehicle began making a high pitched whining noise but had no other symptoms. Then, 5 days ago I felt the vehicle shutter only once. Since I did not feel it again over a period of days, I chalked it up to being sensitive and thought it could have been in between gears or something. This past saturday I took a 2 1/2 hour trip to north carolina from virginia. On the way there we stopped quite a bit and had no issues. On saturday afternoon I started back toward virginia and felt the same shutter I felt days before and the whining persisted. …”
