2011 Jeep Patriot Latitude 70th Anniversary Editio on 2040-cars
North Port, Florida, United States
This is a beautiful like new Jeep Patriot Anniversary Edition. These are rare especially in this color combination of Brilliant Black Clearcoat Metallic and Black interior. This is an excellent street Jeep in Front wheel Drive configuration. I used this mostly on the highway for my sales business. I am now retired and have no need for this extra car. This is my second Patriot (my first was an 08) and has proved to be quieter and better riding than the first one. It also gets better gas mileage and I have attained as much as 36 mpg on the highway. I can regularly average 28 mpg at speeds of 70-75 mph. This Jeep is loaded with factory accessories (please see the picture of the laminated window sticker) and also has the added dealer features of Homelink Garage door opener, Voice activated stereo and Bluetooth phone, Daytime Running Lights, Factory Tow hitch (only towed a small trailer once), Winter Slush Mats, Roll up Cargo cover, Cargo Nets, Roof Cross bars and Cargo Basket (never used). There is also a almost new set of Firestone Winterforce tires mounted on Jeep Patriot Steel 16 inch wheels that I used one winter for 3500 miles. The vehicle does really not need snow tires but when they are on the winter handling is greatly enhanced. They are quiet and could be used all year round if desired. The vehicle is in excellent almost new condition with no accidents, rust or body damage. There are some stone pits on the grill from high way driving but other than that the vehicle looks new. The Anniversary Edition Floor mats were place in the vehicle for the pictures and have never been used. The interior is as close to perfect as one could get. I am an auto and Jeep enthusiast and have driven well over 500,000 miles in Jeeps and have owned two Wranglers, a Cherokee, a Grand Cherokee, a Liberty and two Patriots. I can say this is the most comfortable and best of all of my Jeeps--I especially appreciate the hauling capabilities, the ability to carry 4 adults in comfort (the back seat is very spacious) and the excellent fuel mileage which is consistently 23 city and 28 highway.

Chrysler investigating complaints of vehicles with faulty power modules
Sun, 24 Aug 2014Chrysler owners are hopping mad after experiencing a series of electrical gremlins in some of the company's vehicles. Issues range from mere annoyances - windows rolling down and radios turning off of their own accord - to serious safety issues, with headlights that randomly shut off at night and cars that stall and refuse to start.
The issues are being blamed on the total integrated power module, which can cost up to $1,000 for customers to replace. This, of course, has led to a hefty batch of complaints to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, with 240 owners expressing their displeasure so far. Another site, CarComplaints.com, has registered over 300 complaints relating to the 2010 to 2011 Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango, alone, according to The New York Times.
Chrysler has acknowledged that it's investigating the complaints and is analyzing the faulty TIPMs, but that isn't quite enough for customers of the affected vehicles. The newspaper has snagged a few of the more harrowing tales with the electrically challenged Chrysler products, culled from the NHTSA complaints.
Consumer Reports digs Mazda3, disses Jeep Cherokee
Tue, 11 Feb 2014Consumer Reports has just rendered its verdict on two of the more important cars to launch this year - the Mazda3 and the Jeep Cherokee. Considering the value a "Recommended" rating carries with the public and the viciously competitive markets these two cars compete in, Consumer Reports' view could have some impact on their initial success.
For Mazda, that's a good thing. CR spoke quite highly of the Zoom-Zoom brand's compact sedan and hatch, testing both models, and citing the excellent fuel economy and snickety-snack manual shifter as high points. Downsides to the 3 included a ride that is agile but "nervous," a bit too much noise and a cramped back seat. Still, the 3 was good enough to earn its place in the ranks of the "Recommended."
The Jeep didn't fare quite so well, with CR calling the polarizing CUV "half-baked." Although both engines were tested, the magazine called the 2.4-liter four-pot underpowered and its nine-speed automatic unrefined and unresponsive. That's particularly damning, considering the 9AT's role in future Chrysler products, including the extremely important 200. Overall, the Cherokee missed out on the coveted "Recommended" rating.
2014 Jeep Patriot and Compass ditch CVT for six-speed auto
Mon, 07 Jan 2013It was reported in Automotive News a few months ago, but a new report on Allpar.com adds some details to news that the 2014 Jeep Compass and Patriot will get a six-speed automatic to replace the CVTs they currently use. According to a tip provided to Allpar, the 2014 models will begin production in March and be on sale sometime in the summer. The Jatco-sourced CVT in use until now - Jatco is owned by Nissan and Mitsubishi - has been often criticized, and many won't be sad to see it go.
The incoming six-speed automatic is said to be an all-wheel-drive cog-swapper that's the work of Hyundai and Magna and has been paired with the DynaMax AWD system used in the Hyundai ix35 and Kia Sportage. It won't be the only Chrysler product using a transmission with ties to Hyundai: the six-speed automatic in the Dodge Dart comes from Powertech, which is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hyundai. With the Patriot and Compass said to be driving down the trail for the last time this year, it will be a short run for the new tranny and the rumored addition of a backup camera and power rear liftgate on the Compass.
