It's obvious that the corporate reviews for this vehicle are paid by competing auto manufacturers which is why they will not write it as high as it deserves! But if you own one or have driven one for a while you will know this is one of the best little suv's you will ever get. I have a 2010 which I used for my business that just turned over 290,000 miles and is still running fine with no major repairs! Matter fact it has served me so well that last year I bought a new 2017 Patriot High Altitude 4 x 4 and it has proven to be just as reliable. Bye 2017 came with a factory tow package and I have toad 2000 pounds with it back and forth through the mountains of Western North Carolina several times with no problem. I owned one of just about every vehicle made, trucks, vans and sport cars but I've never had a vehicle for this money that has given me as much pleasure to drive and that has been as dependable. If you have a patriot you know what I'm talking about, if you don't, you should get one and find out for yourself. They stop making the Patriot which is another ridiculous decision on the part of FCA like building their vehicles in Mexico , What a mistake. So 2017 is the last Model but if you shop around you might get lucky and find one. So don't pay any attention to reviews that are by publishers who can be biased for money. Instead, stop someone on the street that owns one and ask them what they think of the car. From all the reviews I read before I bought my second one I have found it to be the highest rated vehicle in the United States. And that's for a reason, because it is one of the most dependable and for the money you can't possibly go wrong.

Just bought the 2017 High Altitude 4x4 2.4L used from a local dealership with 20,000 miles on it. Runs way better that I would have expected. Acceleration is great. Rides great, suspension is great as well. Interior is nice, leather was an upgrade from my previous vehicle. Even the u130 radio has Bluetooth steaming capability from you phone for music, you usually have to have a touchscreen setup in vehicle of this trim level........JEEP you did good on this one!!! Hands free works great. This vehicle works out perfectly for what I need it for. Jeep you surprised me with this little gem. The ride height I great and the fact that the wheel wells are big enough to put a taller tire on is awesome. WELL DONE!!!!!!!

Bought a new 2016 mainly because I loved the VVT engine. Got hit in the front left fender by a full-sized pickup doing 65mph. Totaled, but my grandson and I were fine. Bought a 2017 High Altitude 4x4. Love it! 4x4 at any speed; heated leather seats (driver electric w/ lumbar support), good AM-FM, CD, Sat, Bluetooth stereo, sunroof, ac inverter! Now my wife wants to buy one, even though it would be at newest a 2017 model.

Bad on gas, windows/doors/automatic starter does not work often with remote, dash board blinks off/on, clock resets everytime it's started, acceleration is slow, brakes squeak since 200 miles sometimes and watranty is only for 1 year.....Everytime vehicle is taken in for service, they say everything is good, we can't find anything wrong. It's at dealership for service again and rep notice all of complaints. The truck is a lemon, no doubt.
