[QUOTE="71buickfreak, post: 2845751, member: 8373"] Not unwarranted. Stay away from that POS. I had one as a press car last year. The CVT is awful and the ECM is designed to give you the "feel" of a shift, because people don't like the way a CVT feels. You are basically driving a car with a rubber band for a transmission. When they do go bad, it is ridiculously expensive to fix. STAY AWAY. There are plenty of midsize SUVs that are much better. We have a 2013 Kia Sorrento 4 cylinder. gets 22-24 mpgs highway. The patriot is closer to a Kia Soul in size though. We have only had a couple of minor issues with the car, and that is mostly because we have kids and we put a lot of miles on our cars. For the record, I drive a '13 suburban, wife drives the kia. [/QUOTE]
