How do you turn on the overhead dome light in a 2009 Jeep Patriot?
There are no buttons or switches on the light itself and I don't know how to make it turn on when the doors open. Any help?

You can try looking in the owners manual. On some vehicles you turn it on by pressing on the light lens. Also look by your headlight control to see if there is a button there. Can you turn it on manually by turning the dimmer switch for your instrument lights? If not then maybe the bulb is burned...

Why should I also consider these? X

Boxy styling is actually one of the Patriot's selling points, so those looking at it might also consider the Scion xB, another city-friendly small car.

The Ford Escape, despite its carlike underpinnings, has a style and driving position that's quite trucklike.

With improved safety and standard features for 2009, the Escape is a much better vehicle.

All said, with a price that starts well under $16,000, the Patriot is an awesome value.

The Kia Sportage and Mitsubishi Outlander are two other small crossovers that aren't quite as distinctively styled, but they come well equipped.

Shoppers also might consider the Subaru Forester, a small crossover-SUV mainstay that's known for its solid reliability and good resale value, along with its good performance in crash tests.

The Forester handles slightly better than the Patriot, but it suffers from road noise inside, and it's considerably more expensive.

The xB has similar fuel economy and a similar size, though its passenger space isn't quite as usable as that of the 2009 Jeep Patriot.

However, the xB's interior feels more upscale and sportier, but it's a bit more expensive.
