Crash Test 2007 - 2011 Jeep Patriot (Frontal Impact) IIHS

[jordynxr100]

Oh IIHS it says 2007-2008 got a "good" over all evaluation.

[Raaanch]

I like how the safety belt appeared to not have stayed locked...

[oggleman]

@Raaanch You and I must have a different working definition of the word "like"

[Raaanch]

@oggleman Yep.

[DJTEVAdotCOM]

true...people lacls common sense...keep a good distance and wait a few second when light turns green.

[1000cp]

The crumple zone was good but the head protection was poor.

[DutchDan1970]

my suggestion: keep distance at all times to AVOID/MINIMIZE crashes.

[musthavejava]

Your suggestion is brilliantly simple. The problem is that most people seem to lack sufficient common sense to follow even the most basic advice.

[mrbigtime81]

The good distance is put 2 second distance to front vehicle..i agree.

GM Minivans definetly has a mental problem

[yepdcxrox]

UPDATE! The IIHS messed up on rating this Jeep! It now earns "Good".

[Crashsilumator26343]

Fuck you from lying

[yepdcxrox]

Don't believe me? Go check out the IIHS website. Their dummy had a malfunction.

[aimveryhigh]

True, I saw this a few months ago and it put me off buying one. But IIHS changed it to good because the dummies weren't calibrated correctly.

[alexkvaskov]

Pathetic for a 2008 model.

But then again, it's a Jeep

[GMminivans9968]

This also applies to the Compass, does it not?

[yepdcxrox]

No it doesn't. The Patriot is a completely different body structure. The Caliber and Compass have the same scores. DUH! What should I expect from an asshole like you?

[GMminivans9968]

Reply!

[GMminivans9968]

Riiight.

[GMminivans9968]

I meant "liar".

[yepdcxrox]

HAHA! You can't spell!

And I don't talk to dumbasses.
