Has needed a new clutch but the gas mileage is amazing and it is the perfect size for me! It is spacious and has nice interior. I wish that it had automatic windows and doors for more access but that is the trade off driving a manual I suppose. Would highly recommend!

Bad fuel mileage and bumpy ride
Not a smooth ride and the gas mileage sucks, I can't drive around town for a day without having to fill up.

Not worth the time for the jeep.
It's at 109k miles and already having transmission issues. I have had to replace multiple parts to the vehicle. The gas cap goes bad creating a sensor warning. The gas mileage is not the best either. It just seems that at 109k it shouldn't have this many problems.

Jeep Patriot is a perfect fit.
I like the overall design of the interior. The hauling capacity inside is a huge plus. I'm disappointed that it doesn't have a towing package so I can pull trailers with it. I've not had any issues as to date with the motor, transmission, or suspension. Although it does ride somewhat rough on bumpy roads. Let's just say u know u have hit a bump or pothole.

It is a great vehicle to have for a small sized family.
I love the room and how it drives mostly. It does have some minor things that are wrong with it, the brakes and abs lights are stuck on

Black Jeep with cozy vibes
Car is extremely reliable, it's a Jeep after all. Has a cozy feel to it once you sit inside, and is good on gas mileage

I love my Jeep patriot, but it has cost me a lot to keep it running.
It is a very good vehicle, but any time you bring it to a shop because of a noise or blinking lights (i.e. 4wd light, check engine light), it becomes really expensive to fix. It has yet to fail on me but I think I have put more money into the car than what I paid for it.

Unreliable and prone to problems. Do not recommend this car.
The sunroof leaks and that shorts out the sensors. It has no power and very poor performance on hills. Overheats easily. It is fine for short distances. I have had to do several repairs in the 2 years I have owned it.

When the back windows are rolled down the car makes a really loud thumping noise. I really enjoy the space the car offers.
It's is really great for children.also it has the option of 4x4

I like the lack of extras in this vehicle; it doesn't have extra cameras or gadgets or anything, but this isn't for everyone.
Came with manual windows and locks (which I LOVE). Is small enough to zip into parking spaces and not have to worry in traffic when squeezing by someone too far over and waiting to turn (you know the guy). Plenty of room to haul when the seats are down in back. Easy visibility - minimal blind spots.

Great maneuverability and great pick up.
It is easy to park, very maneuverable. It has good pick up. The seat conforms to my body. The only thing I do not like about it is that I have had a lot of ac problems.

Love the car, lots of room and comfortable.
The car has been good, but I have had some issues with the sensors. I've been told that this is common among Jeeps though. The car has been checked, but everything has come back fine.

Great to travel in had plenty of room.
Haven't really had any problems except replaced alternator twice. Other than that no real issues. I do wish it had a larger gas tank. Have to stop a lot to get gas due to the 12 gallon tank. Other than that I have had no real issues with the vehicle.
Andrea S
on July 11, 2020
Don't buy this car, engine is poor
The engine and transmission are horrible, the car has been incredibly problematic and at the dealer for easily about a year. No one could pinpoint what was wrong with it but the car would not accelerate, overheat easily, or just die suddenly. We luckily had a warranty and the engine was completely replaced about a year ago. The engine is still not excellent but it gets me around!
Julie B
on July 11, 2020
That it is very reliable. I bought my car used and have had no problems
It is a very reliable car. I have had very few issues with it. My biggest problem has been with the sensors that set off for no reason. Other than that it has been a very reliable car and I would definitely buy another one

The Jeep patriot all those small is very roomy inside.
The Jeep patriot is a quality four-wheel-drive small SUV. It receives wonderful gas mileage and sits 5 people very comfortably. The Jeep patriot is a wonderful car if you have pets as well. When I am looking to purchase my next vehicle I will again look at the newer versions of the Jeep patriot.

Basic Red Jeep Patriot, great ride and easy maintenance, love this truck!
I love the basic squared design and simplicity of features. It has everything I need except air conditioning. I am teaching both of my boys how to drive with it as a stick shift and they are finding it an easy task. This car has been mine for 4 years and with only 72,000 miles on it. I only perform basic maintenance and it has only needed tires since I purchased it.
Kristen C

Good short-term family vehicle.
I am not a fan of the cVT transmission - nobody likes working on them, so they are expensive to get serviced. Does not have 4 wheel drive like most Jeep models do. Does not have cruise control. It gets decent gas mileage (average 26 mpg). Perfect sized for a small family. (1-2 kids).

The speed sensors do go out a 50, 000.
The Jeep patriot offers great gas mileage. It is very comfortable layout inside. The worst part of it is that on the 2009 Jeep patriot models a around 50, 000 miles the speed sensors start to go out and those will need to be replaced. The four cylinder does not have much take off speed but once it does get up to speed it keeps pace with how fast you want to go. The interior is very roomy and the backseat does collapse so you can pack many things inside and even use it to sleep if you are not over six feet tall that is.

Besides a manufacturer defect, it is a great car.
There is a manufacturer defect that causes the roof draining tubes to become clogged and forces water into the reading lamps above the driver/passenger seat. Past that, it is a comfy ride and has rarely broken down as long as you take good care of it.

2009 Jeep Patriot has traveled far & wide!
I love my Jeep because it is/was my first owned car. I have had a few issues with it. When it was about 5 years old I had to completely replace the transmission. A year ago I had to replace the alternator. I love that it is good on mileage and it has traveled with me as I've moved multiple times around the state with no issues! Also I had plenty of space with the car seats down to make these moves and was able to fit my belongings.

Comfy, reliable(for a Jeep), and decidedly affordable!
I've only had a small handful of mechanical issues with my Jeep in the decade I've owned it, however I will say the issues all sprung up at once which was a bit of a pain. Dern shame this is a discontinued model for Jeep, it fit every need I had!

09 jeep patriot north edition
Motor is only a 4 cylinder so it's a little slow on 'get up and go' but the space I have in this jeep is amazing. Does what I need in a vehicle. The adjustable drivers seat is great to raise my whole body up and wait comfortably while I drive long distances.

How luxurious it feels while still being extremely functional.
I really like it and think it is perfect for me. It is nice and roomy while still being small enough to navigate and park easily. It also gets good gas mileage and is 4 wheel drive which is important to me.

My car is extremely reliable and comfortable.
I really love that my car is super reliable and comfortable. It is a small car that is holds a lot of things. It is very easy to maneuver and drive in a city. I wish it had more pickup when getting into the highway. Drives great in the snow and comes with four wheel drive.

It is a car that's not to big, and not to big. A vehicle that can be considered neat, in most ways.
It's a good vehicle, it gets me to where I need to go, and it's good on gas.

The air vents & air pressure are absolutely terrible.
I like the aesthetic of the vehicle. The leather interior and heated seats are a huge plus. Back seat is roomy & comfortable. I (along with everyone who rides on my vehicle) hate the AC system - vents are too small & only in the front dash. Car tends to be hot, always.
Rebecca B

Very displeased with the 09 Jeep Patriot
Overall I do not like this vehicle at all. Some of the main issues that I have experienced make owning this car very frustrating. First of all you cannot do any type of work on your car by yourself (for example no oil changes). You have to take it to a shop so they can remove the skid plate to be able to reach the oil filter. And the same goes for any mechanical repairs as well. I am very displeased with this vehicle and I regret the day I bought it. If I would've known it was a shop only vehicle I would of passed over it in an instant.

Ability to haul lots of items.
The Patriot is a great little SUV. It is amazing how much stuff you can pack in it if you need to. I moved from Texas to Arizona and my sister was amazed at how much I could pack in the car. The passenger side seat in the front folds down so you can fit long items in the vehicle as well.

This vehicle has nothing exciting about it except that it is a Jeep.
The 2009 Jeep Patriot is a too small for a family of four with a large dog. My car is manual and does not have power windows or locks. I have had the clutch system replaced twice and the sway bars replaced twice. It also has rust starting in the gas cap cover.

Near perfection for someone needing a dependable car.
I love my vehicle. It is perfect for me and my son to do everything from getting groceries to traveling. It gets great gas mileage. My only complaint is that it has a small gas tank. I drive it daily for work and school. I like that it sits up just high enough off the ground.

Awesome and worthwhile investment!
I have no problems with my jeep patriot. It is a great vehicle, and I would recommend the jeep brand to anyone looking for and is in the market for a new vehicle. We bought ours used and it is still in fantastic condition but I am sure that if you buy a newer jeep that it will last a very long time! The patriot has great space and all of the controls and such are easy to figure out relatively quick.

2009 jeep patriot base model.
I bought a base model so I do not have any bells and whistles. My jeep had held up pretty good. I just now have over 100,000 miles on it. I have had to replace brakes. There is a little fading on the hood. My sun visor on the driver side needs to be replaced. I also need to take it in because when I put it in drive, I have to wiggle the shift to make it go.

My car for some reason has a superpower...it seems to be invisible to other drivers. I have been rear ended and almost ran off the road more in this vehicle than any other i own. AND it's blue!
I love my jeep! I love the manual transmission but wish it had more power. But for the fuel mileage, it was worth the smaller engine. I wish i did not have light color cloth seats but it's hard to find a used jeep with leather interior.

My car is great but it is not good on gas.
I really like my Jeep patriot. Its affordable and reliable. It has great features such as four wheel drive and an AUX input. The seats are very comfortable for long trips. The back seats also go all the way down which is nice for when I need to take my dog somewhere. One thing that I would change about my vehicle is it is motor. It takes a little long for me to get up to speed. Other than that the vehicle is great.
Amanda S

Good handling vehicle that is fun to drive.
I love my Jeep its is a lot of fun to drive. It has a lot of room and I cannot wait to use the four wheel drive this winter. The seat warmers have been very nice on cold mornings and it handles very well. I would certainly recommend this vehicle to anyone who needs a good vehicle.

The seats are very spacious so your purse can be beside you.
My white Jeep Patriot is equal to a dog that's just a little too annoying, a little too in your face. My Jeep is like that. Gas mileage is GREAT! Unfortunately, the brakes are so sensitive, yet the gas needs all the leg work you can give it to get going. The tires are easily damaged which is a very expensive cost to fix. The length of the car makes blind spots almost everywhere leaving you feeling very unaware of your surroundings.
Ellen L

It is a perfect size car. This car is also easy to drive.
I like my vehicle. It never gave me any serious problem, just one time my ac went out and I had warranty on it so they fixed it. It is a good SUV, easy to drive, good on gas, just right to drive around and easy parking. It never really gave me any problems. I pretty much had it serviced each time so I think that is why I didn't have any problems with it.

My car from 2010 until 2017 was an awesome reliable jeep. Lately I have had issued with it overheating and shutting down on the highway. But overall it's great for hauling people and equipment for any of my outdoor adventures. It's all be great going on dirt roads.

Perfect size for a family of four.
The Jeep Patriot is an excellent vehicle. The 4 wheel drive makes it extremely reliable in snowy/blizzard conditions. The size is roomy enough for a family of four, yet small enough to park in those tight spaces. The trunk storage is surprisingly roomy for the size of the vehicle and can accommodate luggage for a family of four. One of the best features is the seat height adjustment, as my husband is a full 12 inches taller than I am. We have a terrible time finding cars that are comfortable for both of us to drive and the Patriot fits the bill. The only thing that could be improved are some of the comfort features, such as an option for heated seats. Overall this has been a great vehicle at an excellent price point.
Richard B
on January 9, 2019
Vehicle body and suspension are substandard.
It is prone to rust. Transmission is noisy. Brakes are sluggish. Rough riding. Check engine light is on, because of rusted gas intake area that the gas cap won't seal, causing a gas fume leak. Very poor suspension for a vehicle with four wheel drive.

The jeep patriot is not only a fun vehicle to drive, but it is a great family vehicle. Its sporty, great looking. The 2009 jeep patriot has great in town gas mileage, and even better highway gas mileage. As long as your basic checks are done like oil change your golden with this SUV.

People should know that the car will last a long time. It has over 200,000 miles and is still in good condition. Holds up well.
I like how my vehicle has lasted a long time and is still in good condition. It holds up well and can handle a lot of miles. However, it is kind of outdated and does not have many cool features.
