New? Used? How old is your car?
The Patriot is an affordable vehicle. That's about it (OK, it looks cool too). It has average reliability and you can expect it to be average at best. The gas mileage is about 23 mpg combined. Not impressive for such a little truck. That said, my wife loves hers.
The Mazda CX-5 is essentially the equivalent of the same year Ford Escape.
If you are considering a new Jeep. I would wait a year. Chrysler is probably going to release a new Compatriot (Probably with the Compass name because its easier to market world-wide) for the 2016 model year. If you are looking used, the last couple years with the 6 speed transmission are far superior to the CVT models.
- My 99 ford Taurus has a milky brown fluid in the coolant tank. Any suggestions as to what could be wrong? The engine oil is fresh, with no milky color. It is an amber brown. the tranny fluid is pink/red my car will start, however it will not leave park. The gear shift will move but the car will not leave park. someone said it could be my head gasket however the car NEVER ran hot nor did it have any white smoke. ill take any suggestions or help offered.

- Looking at trading my 2011 Ford with 80k miles in with an engine knock for a newer jeep Patriot with low miles, Roll 3k negative equity? Ford Fusion has developed and Engine Knock and another mechanical issue. Thinking about getting it repaired or trading it in for a newer Jeep Patriot with low mileage. I would have to roll $3000 of negative equity over to new loan. Any thoughts?
