What owners wrote

I was driving on a city street around 2:30 pm when I notice smoke coming out from under my hood. I pulled off to a safe spot and by this time II could see the fire coming out of the front of my jeep. Three fire inspectors looked at it and are unable to determine the cause of the fire. However, a jeep mechanic also looked at it and believes the fire started behind the battery. The jeep is totaled. Still waiting on reports from the insurance company. Cynthia I just wanted to give you an update.

Reported at 5,000 miles, July 2016 Fire

1st: ABS light and anti skid warning lights illuminated 8/31/2018. Vehicle has less than 20000 miles. My sister in law owns a 2016 jeep patriot in texas and it has developed the identical problem. The lights sometimes go off but keep coming back on. Not sure if ABS is functional. 2nd: dealer advises that the wheel mounting bolts (5 each wheel) are defective and will need to be replaced.
