Side: original test
Rating applies to 2014-17 models built before January 2017
Tested vehicle: 2008 Jeep Patriot Sport 4-door 4wd with standard front and rear head curtain airbags and optional front seat-mounted torso airbags
The Jeep Patriot was introduced in the 2007 model year. Seat-mounted torso airbags for front seat occupants became standard beginning with 2014 models (they had been optional in earlier models). Front and rear side curtain airbags were standard in all model years.
The side impact crash test ratings also apply to Jeep Compass, a vehicle similar to the Patriot but with a different roofline, beginning with 2007 models.

View of the vehicle and barrier just after the crash test (applicable to 2007-17 Jeep Compass built before January 2017 and 2007-17 Jeep Patriot equipped with both side curtain head-protection airbags and front seat side torso airbags).
View of the vehicle after the crash with doors removed, showing the side airbags and damage to the occupant compartment.
Smeared greasepaint shows where the driver dummy's head was protected from being hit by hard structures by the side curtain airbag (side torso airbag is hidden behind the curtain airbag).
Smeared greasepaint shows where the rear passenger dummy’s head was protected by the side airbag.
