Nice enough vehicle but not for me.

This Jeep was okay I'm sure others would enjoy it but it was not what was working for me didn't care for Style or the feeling inside the Jeep. Good price just preference on me not liking it as much as another chose a different Jeep and love it never purchased for had a Jeep before my purchase from this date.

Definately an economy 4x4

This was capable in the snow but repair needs made ownership frustrating. With the cronic problems these are known to have (ie suspe sion, subframe corrosion & fuel tank) any vehicle that hasnt had these issues corrected is a ticking timebomb.

Great vehicle

So far i.v been driving my jeep 8 years, almost a 100k miles on it. No major work has yet to be done, .only the minor things. My serpentine belt has had to be replaced a few times but nothing majorly expensive, its been very reliable. Always starts up. No problems so far! Drives great. All wheel.

Best car i've ever owned.

I love this car. I'm a big guy and always have trouble being comfortable inside a vehicle. The Jeep Patriot is very spacious, plenty of leg room. Lots of unique features and great performance.

Most practical vehicle I ever owned

This car met all of my needs. It was easy to move things around without renting or relying on people to come help me.
