Raw gasoline fumes seems to be entering through air vents while vehicle is in operation, and fan is in use. I was leaving a convenience store when patrons in the parking lot waved me down to tell me they smelled fuel from my vehicle. I quickly exited from the lot to get the vehicle away from the store and fuel pumps. I didn't buy fuel at that visit. The local police department around the corner has an open lot, so I had an officer come out and a fireman relative stop in to make sure the vehicle wasn't going to combust. Left the patriot sit and had an independent mechanic check it out the following day. He did not find anything upon letting the vehicle run and he tightened up the vent tube or fuel filler neck. This was several months ago. Tonight, with the tank at approximately 1/2 full, I

Vehicle is very unsafe. This is the 2nd patriot I have owned and will be my last. *tr

Recently my right rear control arm bolt sheered through the crossmember. I had it replaced at christian brothers and now the front is making the same noises the rear was making prior to being fixed. I saw that there had been an issue with 2012 models and earlier. I'm worried that my vehicle may also be defective. It's a 2013 that was bought in 2012. When the bolt sheered through the crossmember, I was going about 5 MPH turning left in a parking lot. The right rear control arm was completely out of the crossmember.
Jeep dealership said that the bearing went out in the transaxle which caused it to lock up. It locked up so hard that the case was cracked from the outside and all the fluid ran out of it. The dealership contacted corporate to see what they wanted to do. 3 days later, they replaced the transaxle. When I wanted to get copies of the pictures the dealership took, they said "no" and they belong to corporate because it is now in an investigation. I told them that I need the pictures because this could have locked up on the interstate and killed people. When we got the paperwork from the service guy, it said that we as the customer would "delight" in the installation of a witec system. We said no such thing. I think it is a wifi tracking monitoring system. I want there to be a record of
