What owners wrote

Jeep 2007, standard. During an oil change told control arms and front ball joints worn , will need to replace them! Have 47,000 miles on the jeep; am a conservative driver. Tires are worn; have always pulled to the side. Shifting is horrible; slips into other gears. This SUV is less than 3 years old. I have had nothing but problems with this vehicle. The jeep is a danger, unsafe, and should be off the market. In 2007 the patriot was not popular.
