I just surpassed 131,000 miles on my 2012 Jeep Patriot, sport edition! No plans and getting a new car, it’s the best lol!
Update?
Yea bro. What's good?
I upgrade twice🤣 went to a Jeep compass, now in a chrystler 300c awd
But the Jeep is goin good! I have it to a family member. Now it’s at 200,000
@@dylanjohnson4708 oh okay. Sweet. And thanks
Thanks I got one, I like how you described the dashboard making it feel like we have more space. Great video , practical video and it's great seeing how honest the review sounds, natural ..
I have a 2015 Patriot Sport 4x4. Just hit 50,000 kms (31,000 miles) and no serious issues. The heat stopped working when it was 2 years old (fixed under warranty) and sometimes the air flow gets stuck blowing from top of the dash (even if I change it to dash vents or feet it wont budge for days).
It sucks on gas but other than that I love it. Looks better than any other small SUV on the roads that all look like bubble alien ships
Thanks for some helpful information on completed repairs.
Thanks for your review. Your review caught my attention because of the milage. I have a 2008 Jeep Patriot North 4x2 4.2L 5spd manual (CAN) with a little more milage than yours (136K), power everything, tinted windows. I got it quite inexpensive requiring some work on the front end suspension, brakes and transmission. It's peppy. It's great on a two or three hour straight highway drive. Super comfy..
You still have it? Looking into getting one but in Auto for a winter car
Garrison, This was a really great video. I enjoyed watching it.
Thank you Eli!
I'm currently at 129,000 miles on my 2014 Jeep Patriot with a 2.4 l and 6-speed automatic transmission. I bought this vehicle new and I am the original owner. The only thing that I've done to it is: regular maintenance and replace the front control arms (not that I think I needed it but Pennsylvania does a vehicle safety inspection and they try to nickel and dime you). And I chose to replace the rear struts at around 100,000 miles but they didn't particularly need it. I paid $24,000 for this vehicle out the door. 8 years later I really can't complain.
How much were the struts, thanks
Was wondering if your brother still had that thing! Great video my friend
Oh it's still around! Thanks Dave!
They're pretty nice budget-level SUV's. The Limited/High Altitude models have pretty much everything aside from the better sound system (but the 4 door speakers are all 6X9s and easy to replace with whatever you want, and the door speaker grilles pry right off without having to remove the door panels). I am considering one for my next vehicle (I currently drive an '02 Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo 4X4, and still want to stay within the Jeep family). BTW, that Deep Cherry Red Crystal Pearl paint is the same paint on my dad's '14 Jeep Grand Cherokee Limited 4X4. It's a stunning color, much better than the Velvet Red Crystal Pearl paint that replaced it. I do think the seat centers in the Patriot Limiteds ARE real leather, but ONLY the inserts, as the rest of the seats are vinyl-trimmed.
Nice review although the seat heaters and satellite radio are not limited exclusive, the latitude/North (Canada models) have those options as well.
Nice patriot! I have a 2011 North edition and I love it.
Nice to see the Patriot again I was wondering what happened to it
My first car was a 2012 patriot SPORT meaning no electronics besides AC. I got the classic feeling of cranked windows and manually locking doors. It was my pride and joy until I got my 2013 Nissan Rogue which I still have and it was an upgrade for sure
Howdy, great video as always Garrison! For what it is, this is a good car! I’d recommend a loaded Compass for your brother!😸😸
i want to get one it’s so much cheaper then most SUV but i read it has so many floss tho
I’m about to buy one in 2023. I found one for pretty cheap and only 77,000 miles!
I have a 2015 one with the six speed automatic and the 2.4L engine. I'm going to drive it 'til the wheels fall off.
Hows it holding up?
@@lawngevity3295 The wheels haven’t fallen off yet but I do need to change the wheel bearings.
How can you tell if the axel is going out and also it doesn’t look like a 2012, it looks like mine which is a 2015
I have 3 classmates who went to Penn state with me who have jeeps. One of them used to have a grand Cherokee 4x4 from the 2nd gen and got rid of it for a 1st gen compass 4x4 earlier this year after it had a lot of problems. The other classmates have a 2 door wrangler and a Cherokee trail hawk edition with the 3.2 engine with 4x4 because of winter weather.

Nice video Garrison👋🏼
Recommend any lug nuts? Apparently the stock ones break.
After having my 1997 Ford Explorer for 27 years the transmission has gone out after 188,000 miles. So me and my Mom and Dad are going vehicle shopping and at my local CarMax they have a 2015 Jeep Patriot Sport for $15,000 dollars and has 43,000 miles on it. So we are looking at this and thinking about buying it. Just want to know what your thoughts about getting this vehicle. It seems like a good vehicle to own.
Is a 2012 sport Patriot better than the limited its four-by-four I just got it it's red looks just like the one you have what are the common problems with it will it last cuz we all want no problems long-lasting we all want no problems long-lasting is it pull the transmission okay
The 2wd Jeeps never recieved the backup cmaera throguhabout 2014. But, the rest of the Chrysler Group's Recieved a backup camera federallymandated about 2011.
2010 160000 and runs excellent I’m 6’6 and fits comfortably
The backseat hasn’t been used much killed me 😂
Hey I know you posted 6 days ago but maybe you can make a new video on the Armada
Has your transmission fill tube rust off?
Of the CVT has not been replaces by now, you have witnessed a miracle. I had a 2008 and the cvt was changed at 50K and at 130 K the over temperature light would come on. I have a Grand Cherokee now. Much better engineered vehicle all the way around.
u can put a nice system in it it doesn’t have to come with a lot it’s a hook up car buy n get it installed
Good thing there’s no lifetime powertrain warranty on this one or he’d be taking it to the retirement home with him!
Hold the phone: Did you say chrome mirror caps AND door handles? Your Bimmer doesn't even have that! Gotta get on that, Garrison!
Counting on some Black Friday deals! 🤞
Backup cam federal mandate was for 2018 models and above. My 2010 Altima had one but I dumped the car and my 2018 Malibu obviously does too.
So Thanks..so what you are saying it's not even worth it. So how many miles would you say is left.
If your brother is looking at a different Jeep or Toyota 4Runner, which model would he go for?
He likes the 4Runner Limited or Grand Cherokee
@@ThinkOutsideTheCube The 4Runner
Limited looks like the one that belongs to Brooks’s family.
My dad was considering a newer 4 runner 4x4 to replace his Honda CR-V ex-l in the future, but he is thinking about a newer Subaru Outback instead because it’s fuel efficient and cheaper.
@@Daconthocon78 He should shop carefully because a 4runner is a much different vehicle than those other two. It's great off road but with compromises on paved roads.
@@ozzierabbit587 My dad doesn’t have anything to tow and he also doesn’t go off road, so a unibody vehicle would be a better choice.
Hey like a 6 year 2012 Toyota Venza XLE but does it compete with the Subaru Outback?
No. The Outback is a superior vehicle in many ways.
Same size
I got the same year and model but in black as a secondary car for the winter time
Great video
I’ve always thought these were cool. Hope he doesn’t want an actual Bronco anytime in the first 2-3 years of launch!
I was considering buying a used 2012 Patriot for $6500 with 119k miles. Do you think this is a good choice on a budget? The used car market is insane right now and this is the best deal I’ve found.
Just got a 2012 patriot sport with 112,000 on it. As long as you do your routine maintenance, they are good suvs, for the price.
Just bought a 2017 sport. Anyone here still have theirs?? What is their review?
I bought a 2016 Sport FWD CVT in 2018, with 37k miles on it. It was a rental car before I bought it. It's got 108k now and it's been an extremely reliable car. Only thing worth mentioning is I had a slight engine oil leak at around 85k, but nothing that made the car not drivable. Just make sure to follow the maintenence schedule in your owners handbook. If you have a CVT, get the fluid changed at 60k intervals instead of the 120k the manual recommends, it's definitely the weak link. I bought mine Certified Pre- owned and that came with its own warranty, but I was able to buy a lifetime powertain plan for an extra $800 or so which is avaliable to buy up until a certain mileage, I think 70k. Definitely worth it because if the CVT goes out, that's a 3-6k fix/replacement.
Im fixing mine 88k and im slapping a for sale sign throttle went bad
Throttle is an easy 30 min job for someone that doesn't know....mechanic will do it in 15 mins.
Tell your brother he should think about a jeep renegade they are nice or the new bronco coming out
👍❤🧡🧡
2012 Jeep Patriot rotors and brakes
How the hell is the crankshaft sensor not major??? When it's going the car looses power and won't start for a an unknown time. The steering wheel locks up when this happens and this happens randomly. Happend to me going 50 mph...not safe and would never buy another!
I was thinking about buying the Patriot 2015 used..Do you recommend
@@oshynclair7592 If the vehicle has like 20-30k and if your loan isn't too long or if you are buying it out right yes. My sensor went out at 50-53,000 so idk. This car got the job done with minimal 300-400 mile trips for 5 years. Overall I only had that one problem in 45k miles. I'd say buy if the miles is right
@@benpritchett65 130 miles thanks for responding no loan cash out
@@oshynclair7592 Oof yeah...I would pass on it just to be safe. The transmissions aren't great in them either.
@@benpritchett65 thanks
It looks like the engine will last longer than the two that was replaced in the Commander 😅😅😅
My jeep patriot as 170,000 and is a 2014.
2:20 cough cough commander
I should have gone with a jeep patriot over the renegade I got. I swear I got jinxed that jeep has had more issues than Time Magazine lol
I agree, those Dodge Caliber steering wheels are horrible!
I bought one new in 2014, it's a good traveling vehicle but those cars will get 350k miles..
Roll Pirates
I test drove one of these and water started squirting out of the vents😭
Damn!! I read reviews on google about how the Patriot are known for leakage ..I better not purchase a used one
@@oshynclair7592 assuming you know something about something isn’t always a great comment to make! What’s in that HVAC box you guessed it condensate from the AC. Drain is most likely plugged simpleton!
@@Channel-cm7yc Not really assuming more so reading reviews and ratings..Either or I ended up buying a Honda..Old news
Can you get anymore flamboyant
Dad has some daughters apparently,
Cheapest Station Wagon 4WD.. Station Wagon..
The fear about owning an 'ex rental' are often times overblown.
I've seen ex rentals which had a better life in their first 25k miles of life than they had in 'private owners' hands in the rest of their 75k miles of their life.
