Went to the Dodge Jeep and Chrysler dealership today not knowing what I was wanting but after test driving the 2016 Jeep Patriot Sport I'm in love with this car it is everything that I've been looking for all in one it is a great car and soon I will be going back and putting a down payment on this car never owned a jeep ever in my life always been in love with Dodge and it handles just like a Dodge acceleration is great interior is comfortable room is perfect the car is just gorgeous I recommend this car all the way especially if you have small kids the dealer today he will help me to put my 3 car seats in the back with my kids and my mother and we still have room so if you're looking to buy this car go for it!

My new 2016 Jeep Latitude came with a rough idle when stopped and squeaky brakes. The dealer says this is normal for this model and nothing can be done. It is not what I expect in a new vehicle. I have owned many new cars in my lifetime and I have never experienced these problems on any other vehicle. When I complain to then service manager he basically just shrugs.

This is the most FUN vehicle to drive.....I SPECIAL ORDERED Mine with the Freedom drive 2 "off road " package, CVT automatic trans, and Air Conditioning! .......Otherwise NO Electric.......Windows, seats, door locks, Navigation......Just The Basics that come with the Jeep....., Like,,,,, am/fm, cd, sirrius radio, intermittent wipers, Manually adjustable drivers seat (up,down,forward,back,tilt,recline) bluetooth ,rear wiper, cruise control, usb, Folding rear seats,Full size spare tire (a REAL TIRE) ......STEEL Underbody skid plates (not plastic like everyone else), Tow hooks FRONT and REAR, Roof Rack, And a real 4X4!....for Under $18K......PLUS 24 MPG! What a Joy to drive! It Handles Great, very nimble, Wet traction is Very good, Cargo space is REAL NICE for a Compact SUV, OFF ROAD or in mud, snow , sand it has been fantastic! I have 4 other vehicles, 2 of which are AWD ( competitor)..... Much more expensive , loaded with the electronic wizardry, and DOWN RIGHT BORING TO DRIVE! The Patriot Is The Most FUN ......If it only had MORE POWER.....it has 172 Horses.........I'm a guy.....what did you expect!

I've had this vehicle for a month now and totally regret it. Will be trading this vehicle next month regardless of what I'll lose. Let's start with the gas mileage, I've had better gas mileage on a hummer H3 and my pickup than this thing. On a full tank, i'm getting about 260-270 miles which is about 19mpg on the hwy. The specs state 23 city and 30hwy but far from it. In terms of power, it's non existent. Don't try passing anyone on the highway. Pedal to the floor and it doesn't go anywhere but you'll lose a quarter tank of gas on the attempt. Handling is good and visibility but very basic interior. Road noise is loud and engine sounds like a lawn mower. As you can tell, I hate the vehicle and I've owned many but just saving you from making the same mistake I've made.
