2016 Jeep Patriot Complaints

Driving my car and it just shuts off. I have read numerous complaints but there seems to be no recall already 1000.00 into fixing the car. Today it rained and my car has leaks all around the lights on the roof. Worse car ever. bought it brand new now I read about all these complaints around the same milage.I don’t have money to keep checking possible causes when Jeep knows this should be a recall. Pls look into this

On Tuesday April 14,2026 at 12 pm I was driving on a highway at 55 miles per hour.The vehicle completely shut off and decreased in speed to which I was able to steer off to the shoulder but had to maneuver for awhile to a space more ample since some areas were narrow.As I made attempts to start car 2x it would not but rather make sounds as if attempting to start to no avail.At that time a pedestrian passed by on bike riding along the shoulder.Luckily,the incident did not happen at same time biker was in proximate vicinity. As I got off to check car,I was cautious enough to check for cars, a semi truck was swerving and luckily straightened out in time.I checked under the hood to see for any obvious signs.I got back in car and attempted to start to which it did.Noticied engine light was on which is new and stayed on until safely got home.Before,a week or so,car did turn off at a traffic light to which it had no problem starting as I cranked it.
