2019 Jeep Compass SUV AWD

The webbing on my passenger side seat belt is inexplicably worn and ripped. It looks as if it became worn over time by the seat belt latch vibrating against it. The webbing fabric may have been irregular too. It is very strange, I will attach photos. I don't know when or how the damage occurred because I rarely have passengers in my vehicle. It was discovered yesterday when I did have a rider. The damage is too high up on the belt to have been chewed by the dog. The dog has never been left unattended in the car, is too small to have reached the belt, and is secured in the back seat with a harness and locking tether while traveling. One dealer, C.H. Urness Motors in The Dalles, OR, wanted to charge me over $300 for repair and make me wait 3 months for the part despite my car being under warranty. They offered to expediate the process to five days for an additional fee. Supposedly the part is out of stock but for and additional charge, it can become "in stock" in five days. University Auto in Ellensberg, WA is attempting to make the repairs under warranty. I should hear back from them in the next few days. I am concerned that I can not safely transport passengers until the repair is made, that one dealer is attempting to overcharge and make me wait for the repair, and that there may be an issue with the manufacture of the seatbelt itself. Thank you.

2019 Jeep Compass Limited - around May 2021 brake light comes on stays on for awhile then turns off and on at random while driving and while stopped. Then the brake fluid low light comes on randomly while driving or stopped. Then has to go away since it’s where speedometer is then the brake light stays on. Then the auto start/stop light said unavailable. Then the 4 wheel drive unavailable light randomly pops up not as often as the brake lights which are daily actually like 15+ times a trip which also means it is dinging every time a light goes off. I have been to the dealer several times and nothing is ever fixed. This is a safety hazard I can not have my family in this Jeep if I have a faulty brake and electrical system !!! There are lots of issues posted online about this faulty electrical system. How can Jeep excpect me to drive around with possible faulty brakes?? seems a recall needs to happen as this is a safety hazard!!! I will not even be able to pass emissions and get it registered if I have error messages! Almost 10 months and still having this ONGOING daily error message issue and dealer is of NO help as well it is reported to Jeep customer care. Which they don’t care either. Seems everyone knows about this electrical issue and from what I read it just gets worse !! How can brakes and faulty electrical system not be a hazard??!! I do not feel safe and don’t even want this Jeep at all. Come on Jeep Do you want your children/spouses/parents driving such a death trap?

The vehicle will suddenly shut off while driving, randomly and without warning. Every dash light will illuminate, power steering goes out, the engine will shut off and will not start back up for 5 minutes or more. This has occurred while stopped at a stop light and while going 60mph in a tunnel. It is a hazard to the driver, passengers, and all surrounding drivers. The vehicle is still under factory warranty, the dealership is offering no assistance, jeep corporate is also unhelpful. The vehicle is UNSAFE.

I was driving and my car completely shut down for “high coolant temperature” and then just turned back on like nothing happened

The Uconnect 8.4 system in my vehicle frequently locks up, and causes the reverse camera to remain on even when the vehicle is not in reverse

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that the vehicle would not start. The contact stated dynamic steering torque service required, service ESC system, and service hill-start system warning messages were displayed. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 47,000.

I have always been a jeep owner, Grand Cherokee, I decided to go with the Jeep Compass and i haven't had any issues until the beginning of the month. I changed the battery and still had the issue that the car wouldn't start. I brought to Chrysler Jeep and they changed the secondary battery and they reset it so i don't get the A symbol with exclamation point. Picked up my car from oil change, on my way i stopped at a traffic light at an intersection, it stalled on me. Completely turned off, the radio worked, the windows were able to go up and down. after a minute it turned back on. I brought it back to the dealer the next day, they had it for 4 hours and they said they didn't find anything wrong with the vehicle and they reset everything and i should be fine now. That Sunday, it stalled on me 3 times and this time it took 5-10 minutes before it restarted. It was the scariest moment in my life, i had my 6year old in my car and this car would not start. I brought it back to jeep on Monday the 25th and they still have it and they cant figure out what is wrong. they called me and said that they drove it and there is nothing wrong, i told them i do not want the car back until they fix it. now its Tuesday, and they still cant figure out the problem, this is a lease vehicle and they wont even give me a loaner until they find the problem. It just shuts off when you stop always at a traffic light. I told them the 3 things that popped up and they looked at me like im crazy...Service hill start system, service esc system and dynamic steering torque service req'd, they said no codes came up, then they said 2 codes came up but they still cant figure it out. It is dangerous for your car to stall without notice especially when you are leasing it expecting for it to be ok and no issues.

On at least three separate occasions, without warning, the coolant sensor suddenly goes in to a false coolant temperature alarm as if the temperature has climbed to maximum heat. While the alarm is active, you are unable to accelerate and have no power steering. After a second, the alarm vanishes and coolant temperature gauge shows temperature back at normal operational level. This has happened while driving 65 MPH on a highway. This also happened while trying to make a left-hand turn at a busy intersection. This is quite frightening and if this were to occur at the wrong moment could easily result in an accident. Other owners of the same model vehicle have reported this exact same issue in online forums such as MyJeepCompass.com. In all reported cases, dealers and mechanics are unable to determine the problem after replacing the coolant sensor and trying every possible solution. I believe this is a software or firmware issue causing a false coolant temperature alarm to trigger. I reported this to Jeep and they only recommended bringing the vehicle to a local dealer.

My daughter was driving her Jeep Cherokee on the interstate Saturday night when the closed sunroof completely shattered, dropping shards of glass on her. We called the dealership where we purchased the car and was told to file an insurance claim. This is a safety issue involving a defective product and not caused by the driver.

Blind Spot Warning message comes up "Blind spot temporarily unavailable". At this time the lights on each mirror freeze and stay on, and blinker will not turn off. This happens frequently when using the blinker and changing lanes on the interstate. You can sometimes touch blinker again and it will go off and the lights on mirror will then go off. However, sometimes you have no control of getting the blinker to shut off and lights to go off on mirrors. Problem was recreated once, and dealer thought they had it fixed. It started doing it again the next day. I took to dealer again and they could not recreate the problem. Since there is no recall on this issue, they are unable to locate what is causing this. I spoke with dealership again and they asked me to try to bring it in if possible, when problem occurs. I have agreed to do this. Dealership has been very helpful trying to get this problem figured out, but they haven't been able to get it corrected so far.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that the air conditioner was blowing out shiny white participles into the vehicle. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer and was diagnosed that the debris was from an outside source. The evaporator coil was cleaned however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure however, no further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 42,000.

Bought my 2019 Jeep Compass on May 21st, 2019 and it's been in and out of the dealership for the light on gear shift flickering, batteries not charging, radio would change itself, etc. Just in November 2020, I had to take it back to the dealership and get the computer component/frame replaced and that was at 40,000 something miles. Now, after driving this morning to do a couple of arrands in town, it will not do anything. Lights on the dash comes on, break is stiff, warning messages were popping up (like "steering torque service required" "anti-lock brake system service required" "ecs system need service" etc.), mileage on dash is flashing, gas reads full then it drops down to empty and then nothing, engine light stays on during this whole time, can't get gear shift to move out of park, auto start/stop light doesn't come on, brake comes on and off now can't get it turned off, traction is off and won't come on. The dash will read and show that the engine is on but won't turn over.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass equipped with Continental tires, Tire Line: ProContact TX, Tire Size: 225/55/R18, DOT Number: A35LWBJD1019. The contact stated that front driver’s side tire loss air pressure intermittently. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where the tires were inspected and rotated. The manufacturer was notified of the failure. The contact was informed that the Vin was not under recall. The failure mileage was approximate 22,000

I was driving with my daughter in the car and when the engine shut off on me. Luckily I was pulling up to a red light. I was able to stop but the brakes locked up on me and I couldn't restart the car. Many warning messages appeared like "steering torque service required" "anti-lock brake system service required" "ecs system need service" etc. I had just had my car serviced for a routine oil change a couple of days before at a Jeep dealership and nothing was mentioned to me that needed servicing. I then had the car towed to the dealership AutoNation Roseville Chrysler Jeep and Dodge and they do not know what is wrong with it. This is a real safety issue with a car shutting down while driving. I am just happy that I wasn't on the freeway when this happened.

On 4 seperate occasions, I have been driving at highway or cruising speeds and my vehicle will completely shut down. The dash will illuminate that the Auto Stop/Start is not working, then it will say "Stop Safely, Vehicle Will Shut Down Soon" and the car will shut down. It will then take approximately 10-15 minutes for the car to restart. I have taken into my dealership every single time it happens; they've replaced main battery, auxillary battery, replaced battery terminals and have said it "was just a fluke". The light and issue have been reproduced only once by the dealership but no diagnostic codes appear when lights come on. Dealership states MOPAR/Jeep will not authorize repairs for undiagnosable issue as it's still under warranty. The last time this happened, I had my 5 month old son in the car and we shut down on the Tappan Zee bridge. It's happened on a small 2 lane road at 10pm, I now have flares in my car for this reason so I'm not rear ended as I fear for my life.

1. I believe it's the "Auto Start-Stop" feature in the vehicle 2. While at a stoplight in a busy intersection, my vehicle has stopped twice, putting my children and myself in danger, making it a high risk for a serious accident with other motorists. This vehicle has also had a minor stall while driving on the highway. Luckily it didn't completely shut off but gave us a minor jerk. 3. Not at this time; the dealer has requested to test drive the vehicle for up to 200 miles to recreate the scenario. I don't believe 200 miles will recreate the scenario, especially when they say it could be the vehicle oil consumption. Since the first time we took it in, they lowered the recommended oil change by 3k or 4k instead of the original 5k. While in the care of the dealership on (6/15/2021) they made an oil change, so I am sure they will not encounter anything in this 200-mile test drive. 4. Yes, this is the second time the dealership has inspected the vehicle's issue with no response to why the dealership mechanics can't fix the issue. When will the manufacture take responsibility and recall the 2019 Jeep Compass. Why put people's lives at risk when informing the dealership of the dangers of this vehicle. 5. The Jeep Compass displayed no warning lamps; the vehicle just stalled.

I purchased my 2019 jeep Compass September 29th 2020, on March 20th 2021 my engine and radiator needs to be replace, Both warranty refuse to repair Engine & Radiator

MY ENGINE AND RADIATOR NEEDS REPLACED, I AM NOW SEEKING HELP FOR REPAIRS FROM WARRANTY OR FULL REFUND FOR CAR AND EXPENSES USED TO PROVIDE DAILY TRANSPORTATION, BOTH WARRANTY REFUSES TO FIX THE 2019 JEEP COMPASS. I PURCHASED THE 2019 JEEP COMPASS ON SEPTEMBER 29TH, 2020, FROM ENTERPRISE CAR SALE IN VIRGINIA BEACH, VA. MARCH 20TH, 2021, THE JEEP COMPASS SHUTDOWN ON THE FREEWAY AT 65 MPH. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED WARRANTY SERVICES FOR TOWING TO THE NEAREST CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP, HALL CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM CHESAPEAKE, LOCATED 3353 WESTERN BRANCH BLVD, CHESAPEAKE VA 23321. THE VEHICLE WAS REVIEWED THREE TIMES WITHIN THE 25 DAYS THAT THE VEHICLE SPENT. $22,231, IS A REMAINDER BALANCE, I'M STILL PAYING CAR-NOTE OF $460 A MONTH. NATIONAL CENTER FOR DISPUTE SETTLEMENT HAS DENIED MY COMPLAINT. I'VE PLEADING FOR 2 MONTH FOR HELP, I'VE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 6 MONTHS. I RECEIVED A LETTER ON 3/15/2021 FROM CONTINENTAL FOR TIRE DEFECTION ON THE CAR, I

ON MAY 1ST 2021 I WAS DRIVING MY CAR HOME WHICH I'VE ONLY HAD FOR ABOUT 7 MONTHS (UNDER 36K MILES) HOME AND MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED MOVING (EVEN THOUGH THEY WEREN'T ON) I TURN THE KNOB TO TURN THEM OFF AND I GET A MESSAGE THAT 'SERVICE SHIFTER'. I GO HOME AND PARK THE CAR. ABOUT A HOUR LATER I COME BACK OUT AND TRY THE CAR AGAIN AND SAME THING WINDSHIELD WIPERS MOVING WHILE OFF, TURN THE KNOB TO TURN THEM OFF AND 'SERVICE SHIFTER' MESSAGE POPS UP ALONG MESSAGES ABOUT MY LIGHTS BEING OUT, MY A/C QUIT WORKING AND MY BREAK LIGHT CAME ON! TO TOP IT OFF MY GEAR SHIFT WAS COMPLETELY BLACK AND YOU COULD NOT PUT IT INTO ANY GEAR. WOULD NOT MOVE. THOUGH IT WAS IN THE PARK POSITION THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN OFF BECAUSE IT WAS SAYING IT WASN'T IN PARK. IT WAS A COMPLETE NIGHTMARE. WHAT IF THIS WOULD'VE HAPPEN IN DRIVE OR REVERSE?! I GO ON A CAR GURUS FORUM AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. WHERE IS THE RECALL?!?! PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GET HURT BY THIS. SO I GUESS JEEP/CHRYSLER WOULD RATHER HAVE LAWSUITS THEN TO FIX THIS ONGOING PROBLEM. THE DEALER HAS HAD MY CAR FOR ALMOST A WEEK AND STILL NO UPDATE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! JEEP DO BETTER!

TODAY MY CAR STOPPED (AGAIN) IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AS I WAS DRIVING AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT WENT ON. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME AND I AM LITERALLY SCARED OUT OF MIND TO DRIVE THIS CAR THAT I PURCHASED FOR MY BIRTHDAY. I'VE ONLY HAD THE CAR FOR 6 MONTHS AND THIS IS A MAJOR SAFETY HAZARD.

ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR ROAD, THE VEHICLE ENGINE JUST STOPPED. AT THE INSTANT THE ENGINE STOPPED, ENGINE CAUTION LIGHTS ILLUMINATED SAYING THE COOLANT HAD OVERHEATED AND ALLOW THE ENGINE TO COOL. PLACING THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL, THE ENGINE WAS RESTARTED AND THE JOURNEY CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED JEEP REPAIR FACILITY WHERE THEY TEST DROVE IT AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THERE WERE NO FAULT CODES IN THE COMPUTER, AND BASICALLY NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO TROUBLESHOOT THE PROBLEM. THIS IS MOST DEFINITELY A MATTER OF LIFE SAFETY. THE ENGINE STALLING AT THE WRONG TIME COULD CAUSE A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.

MY 2019 JEEP COMPASS STARTED HAVING ISSUES IN SEPTEMBER 2020. IT SHUT OFF AT A RED LIGHT ON HIGHWAY 76 IN OCEANSIDE, CA WITH MY FAMILY IN THE CAR. SHORTLY AFTER, IT STARTED BECOMING SLUGGISH WHEN PULLING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AND BACKING INTO THE STREET. SHIFTING BETWEEN PARK AND DRIVE IT STALLS, THE LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SHIFT HAVE SINCE GONE OUT. I HAVE REFUSED TO DRIVE OR REGISTER MY VEHICLE SINCE OCT. 2020 BECAUSE I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT WITH MY CHILD IN THE CAR. I MAKE MY MONTHLY PAYMENTS ON TIME AND HAVE BEEN TOLD TO REPORT MY ISSUES HERE. MY 2019 JEEP COMPASS IS A PAPERWEIGHT AT THIS TIME.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE WORKED AS DESIGNED. THE AUTO START/STOP WARNING INDICATOR LIGHT WAS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SUNCOAST CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (8755 PARK BLVD N, SEMINOLE, FL 33777, (727)393-4621) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE FUEL PUMP NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE 556.

I PARKED MY CAR IN MY DRIVE LASTNIGHT JUST LIKE EVERY NIGHT; AND I WALKED OUT THIS MORNING AND THE BACK END OF MY CAR WAS IN THE STREET! IT ROLLED BACK MORE THAN HALF OF MY DRIVEWAY! PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT YES IT SNOWED HERE IN NJ HOWEVER THERE WAS ROCK SALT (A SIGNIFICANT AMOUNT ON MY DRIVEWAY - TOWNSHIP GRADE) THERE WAS A VERY LIGHT AMOUNT OF SNOW NOTHING CRAZY THAT WOULD'VE CAUSED THIS. MY DRIVEWAY IS NOT A HILL OR HARSH SLOPPING AT ALL. I'M CONCERNED FOR NOT ONLY MY SAFETY AND OF COURSE FOR MY CAR, BUT WHAT IF THAT ROLLED FURTHER?... WHAT IF IT HIT SOMEONE WALKING THEIR DOG.. OR ANOTHER VEHICLE PASSING BY?

I BOUGHT MY 2019 JEEP COMPASS LIMITED FROM A DEALERSHIP ON 11/18/2020. SINCE THAT DAY IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 4 TIMES. THREE TIMES BECAUSE THE START /STOP KEPT COMING ON SAYING TO HAVE IT SERVICED AND BECAUSE IT STOPPED ON ME AT A STOP SIGN AND WOULD NOT GO, HAD TO TURN IT OFF AND IT CRAKED AGAIN TELLING ME START/STOP HAS MALFUNCTIONED! TODAY1/26/2021 ALL LIGHTS ON DASH CAME ON IT LOST POWER ON THE INTERSTATE AND TOLD ME TO STOP HAVE ENGINE SERVICED NOW. SHUT DOWN WOULD NOT CRANK HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO TAKE TO DELEARSHIP. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THESE CARS ARE A PIECE OF CRAP AND JEEP NEEDS TO TAKE NOTICE!! JEEP SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO SALE A VEHICLE WITH SO MANY KNOWN PROBLEMS!! SO SORRY I LEFT HONDA FOR THIS!!!!!!!!

ON 3 SEPARATE OCCASIONS NOW THE CAR RANDOMLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY CONCERN AS ONCE IT WAS ON THE HIGHWAY- THE CAR SHUTS DOWN AND STARTS TO DECELERATE- YOU LOOSE POWER STEERING AND POWER BRAKES AND THE CAR IS HARD TO CONTROL- THE LAST INCIDENT ALMOST CAUSED AN ACCIDENT- HAS BEEN TO THE DEALER 3 TIMES AND THEY ARE BASICALLY JUST THROWING DARTS AT TRYING TO FIX IT. THE FIRST FIX WAS JUST A COMPUTER UPDATE, THE SECOND FIX WAS A THERMOSTAT AND HOUSING THE THIRD FIX WAS AN AUXILIARY BATTERY?

SO MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN REALLY SLUGGISH. HALF THE TIME IT DOESN'T WANT TO ACCELERATE, AND WHEN IT DOES IT SOUNDS LIKE IT'S HAVING TROUBLE SHIFTING GEARS. WHEN GETTING ON THE FREEWAY MY VEHICLE WILL GET TO THE SPEED OF 50 MPH AND MY RPM READING BETWEEN 4000-5000. I HAVE TRIED TO LET MY FOOT OFF THE GAS, MY SPEED GOES DOWN BUT RPM STAYS THE SAME. THIS IS REALLY SCARY ESPECIALLY WHEN YOU HAVE TO GET ON A BUSY HIGHWAY WITH A SPEED LIMIT OF 70, AND YOU CAN ONLY GO 50-55. I AM A FIRST RESPONDER, SOME TIMES I USE MY PERSONAL VEHICLE TO RESPOND TO INCIDENTS, DUE TO LOCATION.

FROM PURCHASE DATE THE BRAKES FELT BAD. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR TO 2 DEALERSHIPS AND 3 TIMES TOTAL TO COMPLAIN ABOUT THE GRINDING AND BRAKE GRABBING AND TOLD NOTHING IS WRONG OR NO RECALLS, SO THEY DIDN'T WANT TO ADDRESS THIS ONGOING ISSUE.

WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR IT WILL TURN OVER BUT NOT START. THE CAR TURNS ON AS IF IT WILL START BUT DOESN'T COMPLETELY CRANK. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME SINCE I'VE HAD THIS CAR THAT IT HAS NOT CRANK. IT HAS ALSO TURNED OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY WHILE AT A RED LIGHT AND DID NOT TURN BACK ON. THIS IS A PROBLEM I SEE MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING WITH THIS SIMILAR VEHICLE.

MAKING A TURN AROUND AND THE CAR WENT OVER THE CURB BARELY AT 20 MPH OR SLOWER AND THEN THE CAR BECAME IN DRIVABLE. I HAVE BEEN TOLD THE RACK AND PINION IS BROKEN AND THAT JEEP HAS A 700+ PEOPLE WAITING LIST FOR THE PART BECAUSE THERE IS A BUG IN THE PART AND THEY REFUSED TO RELEASE IT TO THE PEOPLE SO NOW I DON'T HAVE A CAR TO DRIVE ALL BECAUSE I RAN OVER A CURB GOING LESS THAN 20 MPH.

I BOUGHT MY JEEP MARCH 2019 AND HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE. THEN A FEW MONTHS LATER THE RADIO STARTS PRESSING BUTTONS BY ITSELF. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL DODGE AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. THE NEXT THING TO GO WRONG IS THE AUTO START STOPS WORKING. I GOT STUCK AT SEVERAL RED LIGHTS AND ALMOST REAR ENDED A FEW TIMES. I TOOK IT BACK TO DODGE AND THEY STILL SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND IT DIDNT THROW ANY CODES AT ADVANCED AUTO. THEN LASTLY, IT FINALLY GOES OUT. THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF ON MY IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. IT JUST STOPS. BREAKS SEIZED. LIGHTS FLICKERING OFF AND ON. CAR IS REGISTERED AS ON BUT WONT GO ANYWHERE. IT HAS BEEN ABOUT 3 WEEKS NOW AND IT STILL WONT START NOR EVEN SHOW A LIGHT ON THE DASH. NOW THAT I ONLY HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY LEFT THEY ARE NKW SAYING I HAVE TO PAY 3I FOR A NEW ECU OUT OF POCKET. HOW IS THIS FAIR. I BOUGHT A NEW VEHICLE SO I WOULDNT HAVE THESE ISSUES. I STILL OWE 29K ON SOMETHING I CANT AMUSE EVER AGAIN.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE PARKING BRAKE INADVERTENTLY ENGAGED AND THE VEHICLE INDEPENDENTLY STOPPED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE OCCURRED TWICE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ARRIGO CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF SAWGRASS (5901 MADISON AVE, TAMARAC, FL 33321) HOWEVER, THE TECHNICIAN WAS UNABLE TO RETRIEVE A FAILURE CODE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE DEALER INFORMED HER THAT SHE HAD TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THE REPAIRS AND THAT THE PART TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE WAS ON A NATIONAL BACK ORDER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT YET REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 22,000.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING OVER BUMPS IN THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE SHOOK ABNORMALLY, RATTLED, AND BECAME UNSTABLE. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.

I CAME TO A RED LIGHT; MY CAR CUT OFF LIKE NORMAL; WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BREAK IT WOULD NOT START BACK UP. I HAD TO CUT MY HAZARDS ON. I PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK AND TRIED TO TURN MY VEHICLE ON. I TRIED 3 TIMES AND IT FINALLY STARTED. MY VEHICLE STARTED MAKING WEIRD NOISES; ON MY CONTROL PANEL IT SAID START/STOP NOT READY BATTERY PROTECTION MODE. I PARKED MY CAR AND LET IT COOL OF FOR 2 HOURS. I GOT IN MY VEHICLE, STARTED, LEFT MY HOUSE, WHEN I GOT TO THE STOP SIGN. IT DID THE SAME THING. IM HONESTLY SCARED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE BRAKING FOR A RED TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE PARKING BRAKE ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION, THE BRAKES LOCKED UP AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. THE CONTACT TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE CONTACT CALLED HERTRICH DODGE (1147 E PULASKI HWY, ELKTON, MD 21921, (443) 907-1500) AND WAS INFORMED THAT NO ACTIONS COULD BE TAKEN UNLESS THE FAILURE WAS PRESENT BEFORE A ROAD TEST COULD BE PERFORMED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

THE VEHICLE WONT START OCCASIONALLY. YOU CAN PRESS THE IGNITION, AND IT SAYS ITS ON, BUT THE ENGINE DOESNT TURN OVER. I HAVE NOTICED IT HAPPENS MORE OFTEN IF YOU 3NGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE WHILE YOUR FOOT IS ON THE BRAKE PEDDLE. TO "CORRECT" YOU HAVE TO TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, PRESS THE IGNITION BUTTON AGAIN UNTIL IT SHUTS OFF, AND THEN REAPPLY YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE DEPRESSING IT AS FAR AS YOU CAN PRESS IT AND THEN PRESS THE IGNITION BUTTON AGAIN. THERE IS A MOMENT OF HESITATION AND THEN IT STARTS UP. ADDITIONALLY THE CAR HAS SHUT OFF ON ME AT AN INTERSECTION WITH THE AUTO START FEATURE ON, AND WOULDNT RESTART WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE LIKE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO. I HAD TO FOLLOW THE SAME PROCEDURE DESCRIBE ABOVE TO "CORRECT" THE PROBLEM. BECAUSE OF THIS, I NO LONGER RUN THE CAR WITH THE AUTO START FEATURE BECAUSE ITS UNRELIABLE. ITS ALWAYS BEEN A BIT OF A ROUGH START WHENEVER I HAVE LEFT IT ON, CAUSING ME TO WONDER IF ITS ACTUALLY GOING TO START.

VEHICLE PURCHASED NEW, STILL UNDER WARRANTY SUDDENLY QUITS RUNNING WHILE IN TRAFFIC TRAVELING AT 30-50 MPH, ON A COUNTY ROAD, VEHICLE WAS STILL RECEIVING POWER HOWEVER WONT RESTART. BROUGHT TO THE DEALER WERE IT WAS PURCHASED. DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY PCM AND ESD. REPAIRED AFTER WAITING TWO WEEKS FOR THE PARTS. DROVE IT OFF THE LOT LESS THAN 3 BLOCKS AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFTEY RECALL STOPPING IN A STREAM OF TRAFFIC SUDDENLY.

IT SOUNDS LIKE THE FRAMING UNDER MY HOOD IS BOUNCING. ANYTIME I'M DRIVING ON THE ROAD, I HEAR KNOCKING EVERY TIME I HIT THE SLIGHTEST BUMP. SOUNDS AS IF SOMETHING IS LOOSE AND NOT SECURED. DEFINITELY SCARY SINCE IT'S A 2019 JEEP COMPASS, BASICALLY A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. *TR

I COMPLAINED ABOUT ENGINE TAPPING SOON AFTER BUYING THE BRAND NEW CAR IN AUGUST 2019 NOTHING WAS DONE. 5/9/20 I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE CAR AND AS I GOT READY TO PULL INTO A BUSY STREET THE TRUCK CUT OFF AND THE PARKING BREAK ENGAGED. IT TOOK ME 5 MINS TO GET IT RESTARTED AND ATTEMPTED TO BACK UP AND IT CUT OFF AGAIN. MY BREAKS HAVE BEEN FEELING AS THOUGH THEY ARE GRINDING. MY CLOCK HAS CHANGED TIME ON THE TRUCK FROM REGULAR TIME TO MILITARY TIME. WHEN MOVING MY CAR INTO DRIVE MY CAR JERKS VIOLENTLY. *TR

MY AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WITHOUT COLLISION. I WAS DRIVING HOME AT 55 MPH, THE SPEED LIMIT ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN MY CAUSE STARTED BEEPING AND AIR BAGS DEPLOYED CAUSING ME TO CLIP A CAR WHEN I SWERVED.

UNINTENDED ACCELERATION, AFTER BRAKING VEHICLE LURCHES FORWARD WITH UNINTENDED ACCELERATION, ALSO HARD SHIFTS WHEN IN MOTION.

I WAS AT A RED LIGHTING TURNING RIGHT AND WHEN I STARTED TO GO THE CAR STALLED AND WOULD NOT LET ME GO FORWARD. I TRIED TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF AND IT MADE A NOISE LIKE THE CAR WAS TURNING ON BUT WOULD NOT LET ME MOVE FORWARD. I TRIED TURNING IT ON AND OFF A COUPLE TIMES THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I POPPED THE HOOD AND THEN TRIED TURNING THE CAR ON AGAIN, THIS TIME IT DID TURN ON AND WAS LETTING ME MOVE FORWARD AND THEN IT STALLED AGAIN AND WOULD NOT LET ME GO FORWARD. MY HUSBAND HAD TO PUSH THE CAR AND JUMP START IT (ITS A MANUAL) WE DROVE STRAIGHT TO DODGE TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND RELEASED THE CAR BACK TO US.

I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVE WAY WHEN THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED AND STALLED. I TRIED TURNING THE CAR BACK ON AND IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS ON BUT DOES NOT LET ME ACCELERATE OR REVERSE. I TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TURNING IT ON AND OFF AND IT STILL WOULD NOT LET ME DRIVE. WE PUSHED THE CAR BACK INTO THE DRIVEWAY AND ABOUT 3 HOURS LATER I TRIED TURNING IT ON AGAIN AND IT TURNED ON. WE TOOK IT BACK TO DODGE (THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS CAR HAS STALLED LIKE THIS RANDOMLY) AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND RELEASED THE CAR BACK TO US.

MY BRAKES STARTED GRINDING AT 5,000 MILES BUT IT IS INCONSISTENT, MAINLY FROM COLD TO START AND ANOTHER TIME IT DID IT FREQUENTLY DURING THE DAY.

NO CODE ON COMPUTER. THERE IS A SLIGHT SHAKING WHEN DRIVING ON LOW GEAR BETWEEN 10-20MPH DEALER SAID THERE WAS NO CODE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT AND THAT IT MIGHT BE A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. NO BRAND NEW CAR SHOULD SHAKE. THEY DOCUMENTED THE ISSUE BUT NOTHING COULD BE DONE ABOUT IT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. ONCE IT WAS RESTARTED, THE VEHICLE FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY AT JOEY ACCARDI CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP, RAM (909 FEDERAL HWY, POMPANO BEACH, FL 33062, (954) 943-6700) WAITING TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 1,200.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WALLY ARMOUR CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (1950 W STATE ST, ALLIANCE, OH 44601) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS LOW, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO STALL. THE DEALER INSTRUCTED THE CONTACT TO BRING THE VEHICLE BACK TO THEM AFTER 500 MILES FROM THE LAST OIL CHANGE FOR MONITORING AND AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHILE COMING TO A STOP THE BRAKES STARTED TO PULSATE, ONCE STOPPED THE CAR STALLED AND ENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE ALL BY ITSELF AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OR GO INTO PARK OR TURN OFF, FOR 7 MINUTES WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. ALSO, SCREEN DISPLAY JUMPS BETWEEN APPS ON ITS OWN AND WON'T ALLOW ME TO CHANGE OR TOUCH ANYTHING ON THE SCREEN, GLITCHES AND HOLDS TWO APPS AT ONCE FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME.

MAJOR ISSUE! THIS IS APPARENTLY KNOWN BY JEEP AS THEY HAVE ISSUED A RECALL. YET IT IS HAPPENING TO ADDITIONAL MODELS OUTSIDE THE SCOPE OF THE ISSUED RECALL. 2019 JEEP COMPASS 2.4L. THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH. THE VEHICLE IS BRAND NEW WITH ONLY 200 MILES. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ONLY 10 DAYS AGO. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK AND RETURNED IT, WHICH WAS QUITE THE HEADACHE TO GET THE DEALER TO DO. I BASICALLY TRADED IT IN FOR A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE SO TO AVOID THE 2.4L ENGINE. I AM OUT QUITE A BIT OF MONEY IN PAYING TAXES, FEES, REGISTRATION, TILE,ETC TWICE DUE TO THIS ISSUE. IN DOING SOME RESEARCH, THIS SEEMS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM IN BOTH THE JEEP COMPASS AND THE JEEP CHEROKEE IN REGARDS TO THE 2.4L 4 CYLINDER ENGINE. JEEP HAS ISSUED A RECALL ON THE CHEROKEE. THEY NEED TO DO THE SAME ON THE COMPASS. STAY AWAY FROM THE 2.4L 4 CYLINDER ENGINE AT ALL COSTS.

REAR ENDED ANOTHER CAR IS HEAVY RUSH HOUR MORNING TRAFFIC AND NOT ONE OF MY AIR BAGS WENT DEPLOYED.

MY CAR HAD STALLING AND SHUTTING OFF PROBLEMS WHILE DRIVING IN THREE OCCASIONS, ONE DAY IT HAPPENED 2 TIMES, AFTER A STOP LIGHT, IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE VEHICLE RESTARTED AND THEN AGAIN AFTER A STOP SIGN, THIS TIME THE CHECK ENGINE SIGN WAS ON AS A RESULT. 3RD TIME IT WAS WHEN RESTARTING AFTER AN INTERSECTION STOP, WHEN CROSSING AFTER TURNING LEFT, FORTUNATELY THE CAR CONTINUED TO THE OTHER END WITH THE 1ST ACCELERATION IMPULSE, AND THIS TIME IT TURNED ON THE EMERGENCY BRAKE.

LEASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW. AT 60 MILES ON ODOMETER, WENT TO START CAR, CAR TURNED STARTED BUT THEN STALLED/TURNED OFF INSTANTLY. HAD TO WAIT A FEW MINUTES TO START AGAIN. AT 250 MILES CAR CAME TO BRIEF STOP ON SLIGHT INCLINE WHILE WAITING FOR A PARKING GATE TO OPEN, PARKING GATE OPENED AND VEHICLE WAS STARTING TO ROLL WITH THE CAR OFF, I RELEASED MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T START IT STALLED. I PUSHED THE BRAKES BACK TO STOP MY CAR. CAR WAS STILL IN DRIVE, I TRIED TO RE-START MY CAR BY HITTING THE PUSH BUTTON , CAR WOULDN'T TURN OVER. EVENTUALLY WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER 60 MINUTES. THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD, I AM LUCKY THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN AT A BUSY INTERSECTION.

TO START I STILL DON'T HAVE MY LICENSE PLATES, WHICH TELLS YOU HOW NEW IT IS. THE GEARSHIFT DOESN'T LIGHT UP AND IF IT DOES IT FLICKERS WHEN I SWITCH GEAR FROM P TO R TO D OR WTVR I NEED TO DO THERE IS NO INDICATION ON WHAT GEAR I'M IN. I'M ASSUMING IT'S ELECTRICAL WHICH ISN'T A GOOD SIGN. JEEP BRAND ISN'T DOING GOOD. ALSO WHEN I LIGHTLY TAP MY GAS IT MAKES THE SOUND OF ACCELERATION BUT IT'S NOT ACTUALLY DOING SO. I HAVE TO TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE GAS FOR THE SYSTEM TO I GUESS CATCH UP WITH THE SPEED I'M TRYING TO GET TO AND THIS IS ON THE CITY STREET . I WILL UPDATE ON 10/3 IF MY CAR COMES BACK FROM THE DEALERSHIP BY THEN.

THIS IS MY 5TH TIME REPORTING THIS ISSUE TO THE MANUFACTURER THEY HAVE ALSO HAD A FINAL REPAIR ATTEMPT AND DECLARED NO ISSUE EVEN THOUGH AS I WRITE THIS THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I WAS PARKED FOR AN HOUR AT A STORE I COME OUT TURN ON THE VEHICLE PLACE THE CAR IN REVERSE CAR FREEZES UP WON'T MOVE FROM ON OR RUN AND CANNOT CHANGE TO DRIVE OR ANYTHING ELSE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND REVERSE SYMBOL CONTINUES TO BLINK CAR HAD TO BE RESTARTED TWICE AFTER THIS TO GET IT TO DRIVE TO GO HOME.

BRAKES GRAB DANGEROUSLY HARD. AND, TRANSMISSION GETS STUCK IN FIRST GEAR, VERY DANGEROUS WHEN IT OCCURS ON A FREEWAY OR INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. THIS IS AN AVIS RENTAL CAR FROM THE PHILADELPHIA AIRPORT. THEY RENT VERY LOW STANDARD CARS FOR ECONOMY RENTALS.

WHEN I HAVE TO BRAKE AND COME TO A STOP THE CAR RUMBLES, THEN WHEN COMPLETLY STOPPED THE CAR SHUTS OFF, THEN WHEN I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE PEDDLE THE STARTER KICKS IN AND STARTS THE CAR IN GEAR WITH A RUMBLE AND THEN I CAN GO? IT DOES'NT MATTER IF ON THE HIGH WAY OR AT A STOP SIGN IT RUMBLES, SHUTS OFF AND RESTARTS IN GEAR. THE CAR IS (2) DAYS OLD WITH 35 MILES.

ON 2/28/19 I LEASED A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. I HAVE BEEN HAVING MINOR ISSUES WITH IT WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR, SOMETIMES IT JUST DOESNT START. AS I WRITE THIS ON 9/3/19 I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT THE LEASE I HAVE AND THEREFORE WHY I AM DOCUMENTING MY EXPERIENCE. LAST WEEK, TUESDAY, 8/27/19 WHILE IN AN INTERSECTION, MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. I REACHED OUT TO MIAMI LAKES AUTO MALL ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS, THIS WAS A TOTAL DISASTER, I KEPT BEING TRANSFERRED TO VOICEMAILS AND COULD NOT GET ANYONE ON THE PHONE WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS INTERSECTION. I CALLED CHRYSLER ROADSIDE (ANOTHER MESS) AND ENDED UP HAVING TO WAIT 4 HOURS UNTIL A TOW TRUCK COULD COME AND GET MY CAR, STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION, HAD TO CALL 911 SO A POLICE CAR COULD PARK BEHIND ME AS OBVIOUSLY THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. AFTER FINALLY GETTING THE CAR TOWED, POLICE, RAIN AND BEING STUCK IN AN INTERSECTION AND ALL, FINALLY MADE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE EXCEPT FOR A SERVICE MANAGER CALLED JONATHAN, HE WAS THE ONLY PERSON THAT SPOKE WITH ME DURING THIS TIME, OF COURSE AFTER I ARRIVED TO THE DEALERSHIP, ENTERPRISE WAS CLOSED SO I HAD TO TAKE AN UBER HOME. I HAD TO LEAVE TO TAMPA FOR WORK SO I HAD TO GO GET A RENTAL AT NATIONAL THAT MORNING AND HEAD OUT, ON THURSDAY THE 29TH I SPOKE WITH JONATHAN AND HE TOLD ME THE ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE WAS A SOFTWARE FAILURE AND THAT THE VEHICLE IS WORKING PROPERLY NOW. WITH HURRICANE DORIAN COMING AND IF I HAD TO EVACUATE, OF COURSE, I WAS NOT FEELING CONFIDENT THAT I WASN'T GOING TO GET STRANDED WITH MY FAMILY WITH A FAULTY VEHICLE SO I HAD TO KEEP THE RENTAL FOR A FEW MORE DAYS. I AM VERY NERVOUS OF TAKING THIS VEHICLE HOME AS NOW I DONT KNOW IF IT WILL LEAVE ME STALLED, I HAVE READ THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THE COMPASS. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH JEEP AS WELL.

I WILL BE DRIVING AND WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN MY EMERGENCY BRAKE WILL COME ON WITHOUT ME REALIZING IT.THE CAR IS STILL RUNNING AT THIS TIME AND WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS THE CAR WILL JUST ROLL INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION AND STOP. I HAVE TRIED JUST CLICKING IT OFF, BUT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WILL NOT COME OFF UNTIL I TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON. THIS IS MY SECOND 2019 JEEP COMPASS. THE FIRST ONE I HAD ONLY 4 DAYS BECAUSE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS COMING ON AT ALMOST EVERY STOP I MADE. THE 2019 JEEP COMPASS THAT I HAVE NOW HAS DONE IT A TOTAL OF 6 TIMES SINCE I HAVE HAD IT, AND I HAVE HAD IT FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO JEEP 3 TIMES, BUT THERE ARE NO CODES THAT POP UP AND OF COURSE THE PROBLEM DOESN'T OCCUR DURING THE SHORT TIME THAT THEY HAVE THE CAR. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN THE CAR IS AT A COMPLETE STOP WHETHER I AM STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT.

2019 JEEP COMPASS. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE STOPPING SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE RAN LOW ON OIL WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE TO SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. WHEN THE VEHICLE RESTARTED THE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. *JS

THIS IS MY THIRD COMPLAINT ON THIS 2019 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE STALLS AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND OTHER LIGHTS COME ON. THE VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO BE RESTARTED AND HAS TO BE TOWED. THE DEALERSHIP HAS UPDATED SOFTWARE, AND NOW HAS SAID THAT THE CAR IS LOW ON OIL EVERY THREE WEEKS AND THAT'S WHY IT STALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND I HAVE A BABY ON THE WAY!. THE OIL CHANGE INDICATOR DOESN'T EVER SHOW UP AND THE MANUFACTURER JUST GIVES THE RUN AROUND.

THIS IS MY THIRD TIME WITH AN ISSUE ON THIS VEHICLE STALLING. I WAS TURNING AT AN INTERSECTION AND THE CAR JUST STALLED LIGHTING UP EVERY NOTIFYING SIGNAL INCLUDING AN EMERGENCY BRAKE BEING LOCKED IN ALMOST CAUSING AN SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

VEHICLE HAS SHUT OFF TWICE WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING. FIRST INSTANCE OCCURRED ON A HIGHWAY AND THE SECOND AT AN INTERSECTION.

TERRIBLE BREAKING AND POOR TRACTION CONTROL WHILE BREAKING, CAUSING THE CAR TO SLIDE ALL OVER OVER THE ROAD

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN TO HESITATE. THE CONTACT HAD TO DEPRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL TO THE FLOORBOARD TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE BUTTON FAILED TO FUNCTION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT MULTIPLE UNKNOWN WARNING INDICATORS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO POSNER PARK CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM FIAT (LOCATED AT 42650 US-27, DAVENPORT, FL 33837, (863) 438-3333) MULTIPLE TIMES, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE DEALER REPLACED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 431.

THIS CAR SHUT OFF A RED LIGHT AT BUSY INTERSECTION BECAUSE OF THE START/STOP TECHNOLOGY. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED AND I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, THE CAR DID NOT RESTART. IT DID NOT RESTART WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS EITHER. I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND PRESS THE START BUTTON TWICE TO GET IT TO COME BACK ON. THIS VERY UNSAFE AND SHOULD NOT HAPPEN ON A CAR WITH LESS THAN 400 MILES TOTAL ON IT.

THE AUTO START/STOP FEATURE IN MY CAR IS NOT RELIABLE. THERE HAVE BEEN THREE INSTANCES WHEN I'VE BEEN STOPPED AT A LIGHT, I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, THE SYSTEM ACTIVATES START, AND THEN AS SOON AS I HIT THE GAS, MY CAR STALLS. I THEN HAVE TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF COMPLETELY, AND START IT AGAIN. THIS OBVIOUSLY STRIKES HIGH CONCERN DUE TO THE STRONG POSSIBILITY OF BEING REAR ENDED. I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM AND THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T KNOW. I LEFT AGITATED. I JUST PURCHASED MY VEHICLE LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AGO.

PARKED 2019 JEEP COMPASS IN NORMAL PARKING LOT WENT INSIDE FOR A FEW HOURS THEN HEARD POPPING NOISES FROM PARKING LOT. RAN OUTSIDE TO SEE ENGINE CAUGHT ON FIRE AND BURST INTO FLAMES VIA THE ENGINE COMPARTMENT DAMAGING THE ENTIRE FRONT HALF OF THE VEHICLE. AFTER FLAMES PUT OUT, THERE WAS A LARGE HOLE IN THE HOOD OF THE CAR GOING DOWN INTO THE ENGINE THAT DAMAGED THE WINDSHIELD, BUMPER, ENGINE, LIGHT, TIRES AND DOORS. OTHER CARS AROUND MINE WERE DAMAGED AS WELL AS THE FIRE SPREAD. WAS PARKED AT HOTEL PARKING LOT FOR A FEW HOURS BEFORE CAUGHT ON FIRE.

2019 JEEP COMPASS LATITUDE PURCHASE DATE: 7/14/19 MILEAGE: 26 FIRST INCIDENT: 7/16/19 MILEAGE: APPROX 75 ON WAY HOME FROM WORK APPROX 7:00PM. AUTO START/STOP FEATURE ENGAGED, STOPPED AT STOP LIGHT IN TRAFFIC. ENGINE SHUT DOWN AS NORMAL, TRAFFIC LIGHT TURNED GREEN, TOOK FOOT OFF OF BRAKE TO ACCELERATE, CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND HAD TO PUT IT INTO PARK AND PRESS THE START/STOP ENGINE BUTTON TO GET THE CAR TO RESTART AND THEN RAN AS NORMAL SECOND INCIDENT: 7/18/19 MILEAGE: APPROX 100 ON WAY HOME FROM WORK APPROX 5:30PM. AUTO START/STOP FEATURE DISABLED, DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, CAR IN FRONT TURNING RIGHT, SLOWED DOWN TO ALLOW THE OTHER CAR TO TURN, COMPASS WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AGAIN AFTERWARDS. PULLED OVER AND STOPPED COMPLETELY, EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON AND ALERTED THAT IT HAD SOMEHOW BEEN ENGAGED (I DID NOT ENGAGE IT). HAD TO PUT CAR INTO PARK AND PRESS START/STOP ENGINE BUTTON TO RESTART CAR, THEN DROVE AS NORMAL. AS A RESULT OF THESE TWO INCIDENTS I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR.

CAR WON'T GO AFTER STOPPING WHEN FOOT IS OFF BREAK

AFTER GETTING OFF OF THE HIGHWAY AND COMING TO A STOP AT THE LIGHT, I WENT TO TURN AND MY CAR STALLED OUT AS I WAS TURNING. I WAS ON A ONE LANE OVERPASS WITH NO WAY TO PULL OVER. IT WOULDN'T EVEN REGISTER THAT I WAS TRYING TO TURN OFF MY VEHICLE FOR A MINUTE. I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO RESTART MY CAR AND KEEP DRIVING.

THE WINDSHIELD WIPER CAME OFF DURING A STORM THE DAY I BOUGHT THE VEHICLE. 3 OR 4 WEEKS LATER THE FRONT BUMPER POPPED OFF UNDER THE PASSENGER HEADLIGHT WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE. LOCAL DEALERSHIP TOLD ME THE VEHICLE WAS NOT ASSEMBLED PROPERLY AT THE FACTORY.

VEHICLE WILL NOT START. 1ST TIME WAS THE DAY I PURCHASED THE CAR WITH ONLY 41 MILES ON IT . I HAD IT PARKED AT MY HOME AND ENTERED THE VEHICLE TO GO SOMEWHERE WHEN I PUSHED THE START BUTTON THE RADIO AND AC CAME ON AND THE SCREEN SAID ON HOWEVER IT WOULD NOT TURN OVER. DON JACKSON CAME AND PICKED THE VEHICLE UP WHICH AT THAT TIME IT CRANKED UP WITH NO PROBLEM. THEY HAD MY CAR ALL DAY. 5 DAYS LATER THE CAR DID SAME THING NOW DON JACKSON HAS THE VEHICLE AGAIN. THE CAR HAS 88 MILES ON IT AND I HAD IT FOR 7 DAYS IN WHICH 3 OF THOSE DAYS THE DEALER HAVE IT AND CAN'T FIND THE PROBLEM

CAR LOSSES ALL ELECTRICAL, WONT START. NOT A BATTERY PROBLEM. HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR 2 MONTHS AGO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT FAILED TO OPERATE AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ROUTE 46 CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE (1655 US-46, LITTLE FALLS, NJ 07424) WHERE THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS UNDETERMINED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,038.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND CAR WILL NOT CRANK; EVERYTHING ELSE WORKS. LET CAR SIT AND IT FINALLY STARTS. DEALERSHIP SAYS NO CODES SHOW UP. HAPPENED 5 TIMES SINCE CAR WAS PURCHASED 12/24/19.

LEASED A BRAND NEW CAR ON 3/23/19. THE SAME DAY THE CAR MADE WEIRD NOISES, INFORMED DEALERSHIP BROUGHT IT BACK 2 DAYS LATER AND I WAS INFORMED AFTER NOT HAVING THE CAR FOR ALMOST 3 WEEKS THAT THE ENTIRE BRAKE SYSTEM ENDED UP BEING REPLACED. WENT ON 5/6 TO PICK UP CAR AFTER IT WAS REPAIRED AND BROKE DOWN AGAIN, AND CAR BROKE DOWN IN THE PARKING LOT OF DEALERSHIP. THE CAR WAS IN DRIVE WHEN EMERGENCY BRAKE AND ENGINE FAILED ON A SUBURBAN SIDE STREET. FULL DESCRIPTION IS IN DOCUMENT BELOW

THE START/STOP SYSTEM FAILED AT A STOP SIGN AND MY CAR STALLED AND I COULDN'T GET THE CAR MOVING UNTIL I TURNED OFF THE AUTOMATIC STOP/START SYSTEM. THE START/STOP ICON APPEARED WITH AN EXCLAMATION POINT WITH THE WORDS "STOP/START SYSTEM FAILURE" ON THE DASH. MY CAR IS A MONTH OLD.

I BOUGHT A 2019 JEEP COMPASS LIMITED 5 DAYS AGO ALL SEEMED WELL AT FIRST THEN ON THE FIFTH DAY I WENT ON MY LUNCH BREAK AND CAR WOULD NOT TURN ON. TRIED LOCKING, UNLOCKING, PUSHING THE START BUTTON REPEATEDLY. AFTER ABOUT 20 MINUTES CAR STARTED ON THE WAY TO MY DESTINATION THE CAR STALLED AND WOULD NOT TURN ON AND AFTER A FEW MINUTES FINALLY RESTARTED. AT THE DESTINATION CAR AGAIN WOULD NOT TURN ON AFTER BEING STATIONARY.

I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE AT HAWK CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP 7911 W ROOSEVELT RD, FOREST PARK, IL 60130 ON 04/8/19 . I DROVE OFF THE LOT WITHOUT A PROPER EXPLANATION/PRESENTATION OF MY VEHICLE, NO ONE WENT OVER THE FEATURES WITH ME. WHEN I ARRIVED AT HOME, A FAMILY MEMBER POINTED OUT THAT THE LCD SCREEN QHERE THE MILEAGE IS DISPLAYED WAS NOT WORKING. AT FIRST I THOUGHT IT MAY TURN ON WITH ONE OF THE BUTTON ON THE VEHICLE BECAUSE I'VE NEVER OWNED A VEHICLE LIKE THIS. AFTER 10 -15 MINUTES OF PLAYING AROUND WITH BUTTONS I COULDN'T FIGURE IT OUT AND CALLED THE DEALERSHIP, THE SALESPERSON SAID TO BRING IT BACK FOR AN UPDATE. ON THE WAY BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP I GOT INTO A CAR ACCIDENT BECAUSE I WAS ON MY WAY BACK TO THE DEALER AND I DID NOT REALIZE HOW FAST I WAS GOING SINCE MILEAGE WAS NOT DISPLAYED. NOW, I HAVE DAMAGE ON THE FRONT DRIVER SIDE OF THE VEHICLE LESS THAN 24HRS LATER. IT IS NOW 04/23/19 AND THE VEHICLE IS UNDER THE DEALERSHIP POSSESSION BECAUSE THE PART TO THE LCD SCREEN IS ON BACK ORDER. ACCORDING TO THE SALESPERSON, I JUST NEEDED AN UPDATE, WRONG.

UPDATE TO MY PREVIOUS COMPLAINT: I LEASED THIS CAR ON JANUARY 12, 2019. IT IS BRAND NEW. THE CAR WAS HAVING TROUBLE STARTING AGAIN TODAY AND YESTERDAY. I TURNED IT ON THE NORMAL WAY AND IT WAS FINE IN PARK, BUT WHEN I SWITCHED TO DRIVE IT SHUT OFF. THE D STARTED FLASHING (AGAIN) SO I PUT IT BACK IN PARK, AND THE CONSOLE TOLD ME TO PRESS THE BRAKE AND PRESS STOP/START, WHICH I DID ATTEMPT BUT THE BRAKE WAS LOCKED AND THIS DID NOT WORK. THE RED LIGHTNING BOLT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT BOTH CAME ON. THE RED LIGHTNING BOLT WARNING LIGHT INDICATES A PROBLEM WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL. IT ALSO STALLED AND WAS HARD TO STEER AS USUAL NOW, THOUGH PUTTING IT IN 4WD MAKES IT A BIT EASIER TO CONTROL. I AM NOW EVEN MORE SCARED TO OPERATE THIS VEHICLE AND FEEL LIKE IT IS GOING TO FALL APART WHILE I'M DRIVING.

LESS THAN 2500 MILES AS OF TODAY. SINCE START OF LEASE IN JANUARY: CHECK TIRE PRESSURE SYSTEM LIGHT ON, CHECKED 5 TIMES PRESSURE IS FINE. CAR STALLS AND STOPS WHEN DRIVING ON HIGHWAY. DOES NOT ACCELERATE. CAR FAILS TO START, SAYS PRESS BRAKE AND START BUTTON BUT DOES NOT START UNTIL 3X OF TURNING OFF AND ON. SOMETIMES D FLASHES; SOMETIMES A@ FLASHES ON SCREEN. DOES NOT ALWAYS RESTART AT TRAFFIC LIGHTS WHEN A@ IS NOT PRESSED. FOR THIS REASON I ALWAYS PRESS A@ TO REDUCE STALLING. CAR WILL NOT INITIALLY START WHEN A@ IS PRESSED. IN THE LAST THREE WEEKS: ENGINE NOT WARM ENOUGH NOTICE APPEARS CONSTANTLY DESPITE WARMING CAR 5 PLUS MINUTES IN 60 DEGREE WEATHER. REAR PASSENGER SPEAKERS CRACKLING AND STATIC SOUNDS. STRANGE CREAKING SOUND WHEN ACCELERATING, BRAKING OR DRIVING AROUND 30-35 MPH. STALLING/GEAR ISSUES/FLASHING R AND D CAUSED CAR TO GO FORWARD OVER PARKING LOT BUMP AND INTO GRAVEL DITCH INSTEAD OF REVERSING.

WE RECENTLY HAD 3 INSTANCES WHERE OUR BRAND NEW 2019 JEEP COMPASS FAILED TO START. THE CAR IS ONLY 4 WEEKS OLD AND HAS LESS THAN 500 MILES ON IT. WE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN ON EVEN THOUGH THE DASHBOARD INDICATED THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. WE SAW ONLINE THAT THIS HAS ALREADY BEEN REPORTED BY SEVERAL PEOPLE. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND APPARENTLY THERE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH "STARTER CONTROL". THEY APPLIED A PCM UPDATE UNDER ITEM TCB 18-035-19. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY, IF THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH A FIX, THE DEALERS AREN'T PROACTIVELY RECALLING THESE CARS. THE ELECTRONIC START IS THE ONLY WAY TO START THE VEHICLE (NO OVERRIDE) AND IT COULD CAUSE GRAVE PROBLEMS, DEPENDING ON THE SITUATION, IF THE VEHICLE WON'T START. HUGE SAFETY ISSUE!!!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT FAILED TO START. THE FAILURE LEFT THE CONTACT STRANDED ON THREE OCCASIONS. ADDITIONALLY, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KENDALL DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (LOCATED AT 13355 SW 137TH AVE, MIAMI, FL 33186, (786) 231-2120) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,216.

THE JEEP COMPASS IS EQUIPPED WITH A VERY DANGEROUS ESS START/STOP SYSTEM. FIRST YOU MUST DEACTIVATE IT EVERY TIME YOU START THE VEHICLE. SECONDLY WHEN THE VEHICLE SHUTS OFF AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN, IT FEELS MORE LIKE IT STALLS THAN SHUTS OFF, A SHUDDER GOES THRU THE VEHICLE AND THE ENGINE SPUTTERS AND DIES. TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE AND MAYBE IT WILL RESTART THE VEHICLE, MAYBE NOT. MINE SPUTTERED TO LIFE BUT HAD NO POWER, VERY SLOWLY THE VEHICLE SPUTTERED INTO THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION AND I THOUGHT THE CAR WAS GOING TO STALL AND QUIT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION. (I HAVE READ ABOUT THIS HAPPENING TO HUNDREDS OF JEEP COMPASS VEHICLES. LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GET IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND SHUT THE CAR DOWN. I WAITED ABOUT 10 MINUTES RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND TURNED OFF THE ESS SYSTEM. THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS SYSTEM, AND JEEP SHOULD BE FORCED TO RECALL IT AND FIX IT, OR GIVE OWNERS A WAY TO PERMANENTLY DEACTIVATE IT WITHOUT HAVING TO UNPLUG THINGS UNDER THE HOOD THAT RESULT IN WARNING LIGHTS ON THE DASH. EXTREMELY POOR AND DANGEROUS DESIGNED ESS SYSTEM. PLEASE DO NOT WAIT UNTIL SOMEONE DIES TO MAKE THEM FIX THIS!!!! IT AFFECTS ALL 20117.5 - 2019 MODEL YEAR VEHICLES EQUIPPED WITH THE ESS SYSTEM.

THIS IS A RAND NEW VEHICLE WITH LESS THAN 100 MILES. INTERMITTENT STARTING. WILL NOT START CONSISTANTLY. KNOWN PROBLEM WITH THE VEHICLE, NEEDS A SOFTWARE UPGRADE BUT STILL DO NOT HAVE ONE. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE, AS YOU CAN PUT THE VEHICLE IN GEAR WITHOUT THE ENGINE E RUNNING AS THE VEHICLE THINKS THE ENGINE IS RUNNING BUT IT IS NOT!. THE DEALERSHIP HAS ACKNOWLEDGED THE PROBLEM BUT DOES NOT HAVE A FIX. STAR CASE S1808000285 NO REPAIR

THE CAR RANDOMLY FAILS TO START WITH THE PUSH OF THE START BUTTON. IT SAYS TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE BUTTON TO START, HOWEVER IT WILL NOT WORK. NOTHING HAPPENS. EVENTUALLY IT WILL START, COULD BE 1 MINUTE, COULD BE 10 OR 15 MINUTES. SOMETHING IS OBVIOUSLY WRONG. SERVICE OF COURSE COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE, SO NOTHING WAS FIXED. IT HAS HAPPENED AROUND 5 TIMES IN THREE WEEKS. CAR IS BRAND NEW. I ASSUME THIS IS SOME ISSUE AFFECTING MORE THAN JUST MY VEHICLE. IF THE START BUTTON DOESN'T WORK, THERE IS NO OVER RIDING WAY TO START THE CAR.

VEHICLE WON'T START. IT'S THE THIRD TIME IN A WEEK. THE FIRST ONE TAKE 10 MINUTES TO START, THE SECOND TIME 15 TO 20 MINUTES AND THE THIRD TIME I CALL THE DEALER AND THEY SEND A TOW TRUCK(ALL TIMES THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY). THEY USE JUMPER CABLES. THEY SAID IN THAT MOMENT THAT BROBABLY IS THE BATTERY BUT THEY LEAVE UNTIL NEXT DAY. NEXT DAY CALL ME TO PICK MY COMPASS AND THEY SAID THAT IT'S NOT THE BATTERY THAT THE BATTERY IT'S OK AND THEY DON'T FIND NOTHING. I'M WORRIED BECAUSE I SEARCH ONLINE AND I'M NOT THE FIRST ONE WITH THE PROBLEM.

PARKED CAR NEAR STORE. CAME OUT FIVE MINUTES LATER AND STEPPED ON BRAKE AND PUSHED START BUTTON. CAR THOUGHT IT WAS RUNNING. PUT IN REVERSE.CAR DIDN'T MOVE.I SPENT A FEW MINUTES TRYING TO START. GOT OUT OF CAR AND DASH LIGHT SAID ENGINE WAS RUNNING. FINALLY STARTED AFTER A FEW MORE MINUTES. 130 MILES ON THE CAR. GLAD I WASN'T ON RAILROAD TRACKS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE STALLED MORE THAN 35 TIMES WITHOUT WARNING. LESTER GLENN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM FIAT (1199 ROUTE 37 W, TOMS RIVER, NJ 08755, (732) 240-8832) WAS NOTIFIED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT HAD BEEN UNABLE TO REPLICATE AND DIAGNOSE THE FAILURE TO PROVIDE A PERMANENT REMEDY. THE DEALER INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE'S COMPUTER MAY BE THE SOURCE OF THE FAILURE; HOWEVER, THE PART WAS ON BACK ORDER UNTIL MID MARCH OF 2019. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. A LOANER VEHICLE OPTION WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE CONTACT WAS UNCERTAIN IF THE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBERS: 18V524000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM), 17V670000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING), AND 16V907000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES AND THE CONTACT WAS WAITING ON A RESPONSE TO DETERMINE THE GUIDELINES TO REPAIR THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 0.
