Stormtrooper Posted September 1, 2013 Report Share Posted September 1, 2013 Just traded in my 2012 Jeep Patriot for a 2013 Journey AVP with 3 row seating and Uconnect phone. This was my second choice when I bought the problem Patriot. Wished I would have bought the Journey instead. The deler really worked with me on my trade since it had been in the shop so much for squeaky brakes and no starting issues lately. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw, what kind of no starting issues were you having? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stormtrooper Posted September 2, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 2, 2013 Patriot had been in theshop 5 times for brake squeal. Jeep had the dealer change both the front disc pads and rotors and rear drum and pads. Starting issues were three times in two weeks. The last time Jeep had it towed to dealership where I bought it. Would not start upon arrival and finally started the next day with no error codes. Told dealer I no longer wanted the Jeep. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Journeyman425 Posted September 6, 2013 Report Share Posted September 6, 2013 That is highly unusual. Patriot and Compass are some of the most reliable vehicles we sell at our dealership. Few, if any brake issues and I can't recall a no-start issue at all. Sorry for the trouble but at least you're driving a new Journey which is definitely more cool!
