Jeep Patriot 2009Change

For the most part the Patriot is reliable and efficient. I have done a lot of highway driving and it would have been better with a larger gas tank. The biggest problem was the sun roof....leaks very bad.....after one good rainfall, the accumulated 2inches of water behind the driver seat. There. Is plenty of room for hauling stuff.

pro: functional for transporting items, durable, easy to install car seats, lots of space, seat heaters are awesome, love having an actual electrical plug, center console is handy and lots of storage

con: poor fuel consumption. approx 400 km to a tank. small gas tank

This works for two carseats in the back but not more than that. You could not fit a booster and two carseats. I like how the back seats fold down 1/3 and then 2/3 instead of 1/2 and 1/2 - makes for more options without the carseats. Definitely need to keep up with regular tune ups on this one, though.

Manual/automatic transmission, lots of space inside with folding seats for even more storage capacity!

Love this vehicle because it's comfortable, gets good fuel mileage and has all wheel drive, but dislike it more because the engineering of the whole suspension is a disgrace

The suspension, struts etc, have been replaced on my 2009 patriot 3 times, and it has less then 75000 kms! It got to the point where the dealership had told us to stop bringing it in for warranty! I could see it if I used it for off roading, but it was just my town vehicle that barely saw even gravel roads.

The power steering, rack and pinion have been replaced twice.

The CD player is no good, it skips and stutters even on brand new CD's.

The :"leather" on the gear shift (5 speed manual) has cracked numerous times and looks ugly. The number panel ontop has also broke off.

Over all - it is a good vehicle, but i wouldnt buy it again.

been great for the dog . awesome on gas. so also a good camping vehicle. have not been disapointed once. also surprised at how nice the factory stereo sounds. and the blue tooth is a great thing to have as well

The Patriot is extremely reliabile, great performance, very good on gas, lots of space and is very comfortable. It is the only thing I would drive.

Good on fuel, excellent motor and performance. great interior, doesn't get stuck anywhere its 4x4, owned for 5 yrs now and only have done the requires oil changes to it. It's the best car ever

The Patriot is very affordable, good gas mileage, very confortable, a really nice design and smooth ride. It is fantastic for highway driving and is very roomy on the inside. It has tons of great features and I wouldn't give my Patriot up for any other ride.

It was a very good car! Ready to sell after 4 very good years of driving highway and country. Would buy again! over 90 killometers and still has life left to give.

The vehicle we purchased has had a number of issues right off the lot.Defective parts, parts falling off vehicle because of improper attachment and so forth. They say it designed for for minor off roading. Let me tell you from experience it isnt.I guarantee if you do you will have to do some sort of repair to it.We live on an acreage and we bought for the mileage it suppibly puts out. What car manufactures negelct to tell you that mileage is under ideal operating conditions.So if its windy, ect ect you mileage drops drastically.There is two holes in the engine copmpartment right into the cab which conviently lets mice into your vehicle.Plastic parts are constantly breaking of it and to replace them is quite a mint.Jeep has gone down in customer satisfaction. We have had to replace our transmission,clutch ect after only 10000 km. My wife and I are both ex military and standard is all we drove.Seals at 15000km ect ect. SO I confidently say BUYER BEWARE!!!

This is a great mix of fuel economy and performance. Satisfied.

Bought in 2009, was really proud of this car. And I'm pretty happy to own the 2009 Jeep Patriot 4x4 North Edition

The Jeep Patriot is a no frills, comfortable family SUV. The ride is smooth, although road noise inside can be a little loud.this vehicle has never let us down, even in -35 c weather.

Stylish and comfortable ride. Fold down flat back seats. Not as great on fuel economy like we expected.
