You should be able to find your 2016 Jeep Patriot OBD port location somewhere in the cabin of your vehicle.

It makes sense that you’d find the OBD port here, considering placing it in the cabin would leave its electronic components better protected from moisture or dirt and debris exposure.

The most common place for a vehicle to have an OBD port is on the lower portion of the dashboard and to the right or left of the steering wheel, and this is where you’re likely to find your 2016 Jeep Patriot’s OBD port location.

Another common OBD port location is the driver’s side of the vehicle’s center console.

If you have trouble finding the OBD port yourself, you could always ask a mechanic to point it out to you the next time you bring your Jeep Patriot to the shop for routine maintenance or car repairs.

As you continue looking after your Jeep Patriot, remember there’s no OBD code for car insurance coverage gaps—which makes it a good idea to periodically check in on your policy to ensure your vehicle still has the protection it needs.
