With the 2009 Jeep® Patriot, you're going places. A 2WD system fortified with a standard Electronic Stability Program (ESP) and traction control gets you through most challenging road conditions. Go the distance in more severe conditions, such as deeper snow and sand, with the available Freedom-Drive I active full-time 4WD with LOCK mode and an available AutoStick shifter with six-speeds. AutoStick allows the driver to maximize engine braking, control upshifts and downshifts, and optimize overall performance and control. Patriot comes with an exclusive Lifetime Powertrain Limited Warranty that stays with you, no matter how far and wide you travel, for as long as you claim ownership.
When you pair the standard 5-speed manual transmission with a brawny yet efficient 2.4L dual VVT engine, the 2009 Jeep® Patriot zooms off to achieve BEST-IN-CLASS EPA 4WD 28 hwy mpg fuel efficiency, while delivering 172 hp supported by 165 lb-ft of torque. The engine's dual Variable Valve Timing (VVT) electronically controls both intake and exhaust valves, four valves per cylinder (16V total), in response to the driver's demands, helping to improve power and encourage an economically sound performance.

Jeep® Patriot received the highest marks "Five Stars" during side crash tests performed as part of the U.S. Department of Transportation's SaferCar.gov program. This means you can head out with confidence, knowing you're outfitted with a comprehensive set of safety and security features. Plus, a standard Sentry Key® Antitheft Engine Immobilizer makes it virtually impossible to drive without a valid key.

| NHTSA Rollover Rating |      |
| NHTSA Rollover Notes:The Rollover Resistance Rating is an estimate of your risk of rolling over if you have a single vehicle crash. It does not predict the likelihood of that crash. The Rollover Resistance Rating utilizes a "fishhook" maneuver which is a series of abrupt turns at varying speeds to see how "top-heavy" a vehicle is. The more "top-heavy" the vehicle, the more likely it is to roll over. The lowest rated vehicles (1-star) are at least four times more likely to roll over than the highest rated vehicles (5-stars). |
