Overview & Reviews
The 2009 Jeep Patriot receives an available uconnect multimedia integration system, additional sound insulation, a spruced-up dash layout and a new center console and door panel design with padded armrests.
- Low base price, Jeep-lite styling, decent off-road ability.
- CVT saps power and produces tiresome engine drone, lackluster interior materials, meager cargo capacity.

Good bang for your buck - 2009 Jeep Patriot
By jeeplover - October 3 - 2:43 amI recently traded my fully loaded 06 Ford Fusion for this bare bones 09 Jeep Patriot with the 5sp manual. I am very pleased with my purchase. I am very impressed with the fuel mileage of this SUV. I have been averaging 30mpg with mixed city and highway driving. This is a fun to drive vehicle with the manual transmission and the traction control is a nice standard feature as well. I am a first time jeep buyer and will definitely be buying another one.

Cant beat the deal! - 2009 Jeep Patriot
By Frank - August 18 - 10:16 pmThis is by far the best small SUV for the price. I have the 2WD with a 5 speed and its fairly quick, and consistently has been getting 33 MPG on the highway!!!

Little Jeep that could - 2009 Jeep Patriot
By ffcat128@aol.com - July 6 - 9:06 pmI have had my Patriot for a year now I love it. We have 26 inches of snow this past winter. My husbands Silverado got stuck and he used my jeep to get to work. He said he had no issues and the thing drove through the snow like nothing. I live in Pittsburgh so this thing is tested on pot holes and 12 inches of water on the ground. It has never given me a problem.

my first jeep - 2009 Jeep Patriot
By mollysmommie - May 20 - 9:26 amI just traded my 2005 dodge neon in for my 2009 jeep patriot. I test drove it all day because I loved it so much I didnt want to give it back to the dealer!!! It isnt a huge suv for a small girl, but was still everything I need and want in a reliable vehicle. I love the bright blue color, i get a lot of compliments on the color and it drives soo smooth! all around great car for my money. my husband wants one now too!!! I love my patriot. it is ready to start a family in it. perfect for a 23 year old that travels pretty far to work everyday.

SAFETY & 09 INTERIOR IMPROVEMENTS - 2009 Jeep Patriot
By Butterhead - April 9 - 6:50 amMy wife was in a high speed collision totaling our 07 Patriot. She was banged up but I was very surprised how well this little truck absorbed the impact. Since she lived and we had no complaints with the 07 we bought an 09. The 09 interior is that of a normal car, the 07 (and 08) have an uncomfortable rock hard interior and very little storage room. For anyone who dislikes the cvt when braking, simply leave your foot barely on the gas and it wont bog down like that. Its a small price to pay for the amount of power you gain from always being in the power band with the cvt in addition to having great fuel mileage along with that power.

Great Car! - 2009 Jeep Patriot
By MAG - February 3 - 7:06 amI bought my Patriot because I wanted an SUV for the space and 4WD, but didnt want to get anything too big. I went with the Limited - completely maxed out (nav., DVD, 30Gb mp3 storage, uconnect). Its been wonderful to have such a practical car with all the bonuses as well. I do find the CVT a little tough to get used to, and wish it came in turbo or 6cyl. as it seems like the pick-up is very slow. But, I still cant believe all that I got in this car for the price!

Love it - 2009 Jeep Patriot
By Guillermo - November 19 - 6:53 pmI just bought my jeep patriot with the C.A.R.S. incentive and the 3500 rebate from the dealer. I had it for 12000 and I cant be happier. It feels very young and fresh. Its exactly was I was looking for. I have the black exterior color with tan color interior. DRIVING IT CANT BE MORE FUN. If you are looking for a small SUV with a sporty design and roomy interior this is the car for you. Mine has a soonroof and power locks and windows. Even my friends that has Hondas and Nissans are very impressed with my car. The seats are very comfortable and the distance between you and the steering wheel and the instruments is perfect. I wish my English was better to tell all the joy that this car gives

I Made The Switch from Honda to Jeep - 2009 Jeep Patriot
By Kenn - June 9 - 4:06 amSo I had a 2003 Honda Element which was extremely reliable. It never died stalled or stuttered during its 4 years of service. I made the move to the Jeep Patriot because they were giving them away and my Honda was not attractive anymore. The interior had been trashed by me and my 5 year old. I am a Realtor so I do a ton of driving. I needed a car that was reliable and better on gas than the Honda. I read nothing but positive reviews from owners of the 2009 Jeep Patriot. I have driven mine for 2000 miles and I love it! It is a great car. It gets amazing gas mileage. It is spacious on the inside. The storage is just okay but the interior looks ago. I love the exterior style for this car.
