Is your Jeep Patriot running rough, stalling unexpectedly, or displaying a persistent Check Engine Light?

Common Symptoms of a Failing Patriot ECM & Your Solution
A failing engine computer can manifest in various ways, often mimicking other component failures. If you’re experiencing any of the following, your ECM is a likely culprit:
- Persistent Check Engine Light: Especially with communication-related diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs) or random misfire codes.
- No-Start or Hard-Start Condition: The engine cranks but refuses to start, or starts only after extended cranking.
- Engine Stalling or Stuttering: The vehicle may stall intermittently while driving or at idle for no apparent reason.
- Poor Fuel Economy: A sudden and unexplained drop in your vehicle’s MPG.
- Erratic Transmission Shifting: The automatic transmission may shift harshly, late, or get stuck in a gear.
