Bought jeep in 2018 since then it has had intermittent cruise control problems. Sometimes it works sometimes it dont. Sometimes it works then quits working. Drivers seat belt will be buckled and come unbuckled have to rebuckle intermittently. Burning smell intermittently dont know if its oil, coolant or what was supposed to be fixed by jeep who said it was leaky coolant still occurs. All of this has occurred while on the road.

When I put my seatbelt on it comes undone while I am driving. It seems like it does not latch properly. It does not do this everytime. I have to pull my seatbelt to test and make sure it has latched. If I was ever to get in an accident, I would be worried that it would not hold.

The seat belt in my jeep does not remain buckled some times I have to put it the receiving part several time before it clicks in and some times I will be driving down the road and it unbuckles a quick google search brings up multiple other people with the same problem I have been in another jeep patriot and the driver had trouble getting it to buckle so I have personally experienced it in two different but same year jeep patriots

They randomly unbuckle! You think you're buckled and you move or adjust while driving then then bam unbuckled. You're going to die in a head on collision.*dt *dt consumer stated defective seatbelt was replaced. While driving and sitting vehicle experience many electrical problems due to slow tipm failure, engine stalls etc.

Front seatbelts will just unbuckle after you've buckled. The jeep wont accelerate, it wont shift until 3 1/2 grand, between 0-40 MPH it chugs & almost dies, once above 40 its usually fine. The dealer says things are fine. What is wrong and why wont these issues come up on diagnostics? The tire low sensor is always on - even after new tires & they reset it. No wonder the warranty length was lowered. Brakes became sqeaky around 6 months. One owner - me unfortunately.

Two things are wrong with my jeep and have been since the first week I've had it, but the newport power dealer keeps telling me that "if there ever was anything wrong with the car, it fixed itself". Bs nothing is fixed! So the first thing is the safety seatbelt sensor's. When I have a passenger up front and they're buckled up it keeps beeping saying that they're not buckled up. Doesn't happen every time I have a passenger but it's super annoying and happens mostly while driving in town. The second thing is that since the first week I've had the jeep, the engine keeps stalling and other times acts like it's going to die but doesn't. ( newport power dealer told me this issue was due to poor gas mixtures during different times of the year. I'm not stupid and know that's not the issue, I have three other cars that do not do this at all!) the car stalls so far only while stopped at lights, in driveway's, drive through etc. This happens multiple times a week. While driving either in town, turning corners, driving straight or on the highway, the jeep acts as if it's going to die. This happens frequently while driving. Also my back windshield has been leaking since I got the car but the power deler says it's fine. I'm very tired of hearing bs from the power dealer here in newport oregon, I have an extended warranty and I think they just don't want to honor it! These issues have been happening since I bought the car in 2016 to today in 2018.

The system that monitors whether a passenger is in the passenger seat malfunctions and causes the seatbelt to show unbuckled therefore turning the airbag off in case of an accident. This specific piece of equipment has been recalled on similar vehicles in the same year but my VIN was not selected and my dealership wanted me to pay in order to fix it because it was a safety risk.
