2016 Jeep Patriot Body and structure Problems

“Not sure if takata inflators are involved. On thursday 1/12/2017, I was stopped on the freeway and was rear-ended by a semi truck which didn't stop going approximately 35 MPH. It pushed me into the vehicle in front of me which was a car length away. The seat broke backwards, the headrest broke off completely and I hit the rear veiw mirror breaking it off. None of the 6 airbags in the vehicle deployed,”

“Purchased vehicle less than 6 monthes ago and complained to the dealer that it sounded and felt like wheels were about to fall off. 8 days later I took it to get an oil change and the shop refused. He explained that when they lifted the Jeep and inspected tires the wire treads were exposed in the middle of the tire, at any moment the vehicle could pose serious injury or death to passengers.

“On 4/12/17 at approximately 5:30 pm I was driving my Jeep of 11,000 miles on it. Still a new car. It started running as if loosing power. I pulled off of highway to see what was happening.

Car burst into flames. Officer attempted to use fire extinguisher but it did not help and by the time fire department arrived it was a total loss. …”

The gentleman was speeding and took a hard right, he lost control of his vehicle and hit me full impact on the driver side. The entire driver side had to be replaced. The airbags did not inflate, the airbag lights did not turn on. At the impact that I was hit they should have gone off and no one knows or could explain why they didn't deploy. …”

“Went through car wash, water came pouring in through dome light, raining on radio. Took to the dealership who said the drain lines are too small and often need to be unclogged. They offer no explanation of the potential electrical hazard or the rotting effects of water left unseen in the roof linings. I googled the issue and found the history of this poor design goes back to 2008. The dealer told me they have not been recalled and can only unclog/blow out the drain tubes during my routine oil changes...this needs to be addressed as a potential electrical safety hazard. …”
