2015 Jeep Compass Complaint Log

VEHICLE WAS PURCHASED USED FROM CARMAX IN APRIL 2018 *(NEVER ALERTED TO ANY RECALLS. ) 10/09/2020 CAR DRIVING ON EXPRESSWAY / CAR WAS ROLLED IN ACCIDENT / TOTALED/ NO AIRBAGS DEPLOYED

CAR WONT START,PUT IN NEW BATTERY, WORKED TWO DAYS AND WONT START AGAIN.THIS HAVE BEEN GOING ON FOR ABOUT SIX MONTHS.SOMETIMES IT WILL START IF I GET A JUMP BUT NOW IT WONT START AT ALL.THE VEHICLE WILL BE PARKED BUT ONCE I TRY TO RESTART IT IT WONT CRANK. NOT DOING ANYTHING NOW AFTER GETTING A NEW BATTERY 2 DAYS AGO.ALSO HAD THE CABLE CONNECTS THAT CONNECT THE BATTERY CHANGED.

REAR VIEW MIRROR BECAME UNATTACHED & TOOK A CHUNK OF THE WINDSHIELD GLASS OUT. VEHICLE WAS PARKED & HAPPENED OVERNIGHT.

THE CAR HAS SHUT OFF MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON THE ROAD. I HAVE HAD THE TRANSMISSION FLUSHED, REPLACED THE BATTERY, HAD THE THROTTLE SENSOR CONTROL REPLACED, HAD THE CRANKSHIFT REPLACED, AND THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER REPLACED. I TOOK THE CAR TO THE JEEP DEALER AND EVEN AFTER REPLACING THE CATALYTIC CONVERTER THE CAR STILL SHUTS OFF, AND THEY CANNOT TELL ME WHY. THE DEALER STATED THAT NO CODES ARE COMING UP SO THEY CANNOT IDENTIFY THE ISSUE.

THIS 2015 JEEP COMPASS HAS HAD MULTIPLE DEFECTS UNTIL NOW: 1. IN AROUND MID 2015, THE 4 WHEELS LIGHT KEPT TURNING ON AND NOT ABLE TO BE TURNED OFF, THEN I SENT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO FIX IT, WHICH COST ME A FEW HUNDREDS OF DOLLARS. THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THE ELECTRIC WIRE WITHIN THE ENGINE BOX WAS NOT IN GOOD SHAPE AND NEED TO BE REPLACED. 2. AT THE END OF 2017, THE CAR WAS SUDDENLY SHAKING HEAVILY AND JERKS WHILE ACCELERATING, AND A CONTINUOUS MUFFLED AND HOLLOW SOUND CAME OUT FROM THE ENGINE BOX. AND THE ENGINE WARNING LIGHT WAS ON. I SENT IT TO THE DEALER FOR A FIX, AND THE FEE WAS PAID BY THE DEALER THEMSELVES. LATER THEY TOLD ME THAT THEY REPLACED THE TRANSMISSION FOR MY CAR. 3. IN THE MID OF 2020, THE CAR WAS NOT ABLE TO SHIFT FROM THE PARK(A SHIFTER STUCK IN PARK) WHEN IT WAS IN THE SURFACE PARKING OF MY APARTMENT. SO I HAD TO SEND IT TO THE GARAGE TO HAVE A FIX, WHICH COST ME A FEW HUNDRED MORE DOLLARS, AND SOME OF ITS ELECTRIC WIRED WITHIN THE ENGINE BOX WAS REPLACED.

HEAD REST RESTRAINT POPPED OFF WITH NO IMPACT WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET. TABS FAILED INSIDE AND RELEASED HEADREST IN BACK OF DRIVERS HEAD WHILE IN MOTION CAUSING DISTRACTION OF MOTOR VEHICLE OPERATION. *TR

I WAS DRIVING INTO THE PARKING LOT OF A DUNKEN DONUTS AND THE DRIVER SIDE HEADREST DEPLOYED FOR NO REASON. THE CLIPS THAT LOCK THE HEADREST IN PLACE SOME HOW BROKE CAUSING THE HEADREST TO DEPLOY.

MY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE BODY FAILED WHILE DRIVING. I NOTICED THE FLASHING LIGHTNING SYMBOL. THIS MADE MY VEHICLE RAPIDLY LOSE POWER SO I HAD TO STOP VEHICLE IMMEDIATELY. I HAD VEHICLE TOWED TO RICK HENDRICK JEEP DEALERSHIP WHICH DIAGNOSED AND FIXED ISSUE. THIS WAS A VERY EXPENSIVE REPAIR. *TR

THE RIGHT FRONT PASSENGER HEADREST DEPLOYED WHILE CAR WAS PARKED AND NOT IN USE. THE PLASTIC RETAINER CLIPS ARE BROKEN AND IT CAN NOT BE FIXED. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUES THAT HAS BEEN DOCUMENTED REPEATEDLY ON JEEP FORUM SO IT IS A MANUFACTURING PROBLEM. JEEP NEEDS TO REPLACE THIS FREE OF CHARGE AS IT DEPLOYED ON ITS OWN WHILE THE CAR WAS PARKED AND NOT IN USE

2015 JEEP COMPASS LATITUDE 4X4 WITH A 2.4L ENGINE AND AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAS 80,000 MILES ON IT. ABOUT A WEEK AGO WE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD IN OUR NEIGHBORHOOD WHEN THE CAR WENT INTO LIMP MODE, NO POWER TO THE WHEELS AND THE ENGING STARTED CHUGGING. CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP AND THE RPM'S WERE AT 1500 AT IDLE. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT, ABS, AND TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT TURNED ON. I SHUT OFF THE ENGINE AND WAITED A COUPLE SECONDS AND TURNED IT BACK ON. ALL THE LIGHTS TURNED OFF AND THE VEHICLE SEEMED FINE. I DROVE IT HOME AND HOOKED UP MY SCAN TOOL AND THERE WERE NO CODES SO I HAD NO IDEA WHAT TO LOOK FOR. TWO DAYS LATER WE WERE DRIVING DOWN THE HIGHWAY AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE WITH NO SHOULDER AND NO EXIT! THE CAR WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND CHUGGED TO A STOP, HAD TO HOLD UP TRAFFIC TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON TO GET MOVING AGAIN. TWO MILES LATER IT HAPPENED AND WE HAD A SHOULDER TO PULL OVER ONTO. I STOPPED THE CAR AND TRIED TO SCAN THE ENGINE AND AGAIN NO CODES BUT THE DASH WAS LIT UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE. AFTER TURNING IT BACK ON THE CAR WAS STUCK IN LIMP MODE AND WOULD NOT MOVE. HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO THE SHOP. AFTER THROWING A BUNCH OF MONEY AT IT WE FINALLY FOUND IT WAS A FAULTY THROTTLE BODY. THE PEDAL SENSOR AND THE THROTTLE BODY WERE NOT COMMUNICATING. IT COST US $719.67 TO HAVE IT FIXED NOT TO MENTION THE TOW.

WHEN RIDING CITY STREETS OR HIGHWAY ENGINE SOMETIMES JERK AND STALLS. NO WARNING AND NO LIGHTS. THIS HAS HAPPEN OVER 10 TIMES IN THE LAST FIVE MONTHS. CRANKSHAFT SENSOR WAS REPLACED AUGUST 2018 DUE TO ENGINE STALLING AND WOULDN'T CRANK.

ROUGH IDLE, SPOTTY ACCELERATION, REMOTE START CUTS OUT, ENGINE LIGHT, EBS LIGHT, THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT ALL COME ON, HIGHER RPM THIS ISSUE SOUNDS LIKE MULTIPLE OTHERS THAT PEOPLE HAVE HAD, BUT THERE'S NO RECALL FOR MY VIN?. THE ATTACHED DESCRIPTION FROM ANOTHER PERSON IS EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MINE. MY VEHICLE HAS 62500 MILES.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON,THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT STARTS FLASHING, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT STARTS FLASHING, REMOTE START CUTS OUT. IDLE BECOMES IRREGULAR AND VEHICLE RUNS ROUGH TO NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE BUT WILL IDLE IN PARK AT OVER 2000 RMPS. VEHICLE ONLY HAS BARELY 19000 MILES. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP.

I ONLY HAVE 25,000 MILES ON MY 2015 JEEP COMPASS AND AM NOW BEING TOLD BY THE DEALERSHIP THAT I NEED MY THROTTLE BODY REPLACED AND THE CONNECTORS TO BE REWIRED. IT SEEMS TO BE A TREND HERE. HOW IS THIS NOT A RECALL? CAR WON'T ACCELERATE WHEN IT IS COLD OUTSIDE, AND MY THROTTLE SENSOR AND ENGINE LIGHT ARE ON. DEALERSHIP WANTS OVER $1000 FOR REPAIR, AND IT IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY. I LIVE IN A HIGHLY POPULATED AREA, AND IT IS SO DANGEROUS WHEN YOUR CAR WON'T ACCELERATE DURING HEAVY TRAFFIC. THERE HAVE BEEN SEVERAL OCCASIONS WHERE I AM FORCED TO PULL INTO A PARKING LOT UNTIL THE CAR WILL GO AGAIN. DEFINITELY COULD HAVE CAUSED A CRASH OR INCIDENT.

OCT. 2019, DRIVING ON HIGHWAY, ACCELERATION AND SPEED EFFECTED, LOSE OF POWER. AFTER EXITING HIGHWAY, STOPPED AT RED LIGHT. CAR TOOK TWO MINUTES TO ACCELERATE FROM 0 TO 30, CHUGGING, ROUGH RUNNING. STOPPED, TURNED OFF IGNITION. RESTARTED AND RAN NORMAL FROM 10 MINUTES, THEN PROBLEM REPEATED THREE OTHER TIMES. IN SHOP, THEY REPLACED AND INTAKE SENSOR AND OUTPUT SPEED SHAFT SENSOR. COST ME $300+ AND THE OUTPUT SENSORY INSTALLED DID NOT WORK, HAD TO REPLACE IT WITH ANOTHER BEFORE CAR RAN RIGHT. CAR TIED UP FOR FOUR DAYS. I AM GIVING UP ON JEEP, POOR QUALITY, FREQUENT REPAIRS. THIS PROBLEM ON THE HIGHWAY PUT MY SAFETY AT RISK NOT BEING ABLE TO CONTROL SPEED AND SUDDENLY DECELERATING IN FRONT OF FOLLOWING TRAFFIC.

CAR STALLS\STOPS WHILE DRIVING WHETHER DRIVING STRAIGHT OR MAKING TURNS. VERY DANGEROUS.

VEHICLE NOT STARTING, UNABLE TO ACCELERATE OVER 20MPH, IDLING, SHAKING, RADIO UNEXPECTEDLY STOPPED WORKING, VEHICLE NOT COMMUNICATING WITH THE 'COMPUTER' ECM

9/9/19JEEP COMPASS LATITUDE JUST SHUT DOWN NO WARNING LIGHTS, ALARMS, OR CODES IT STOPPED WHILE DRIVING I WAS LEAVING HOME DEPOT IN DEARBORN MI HEADED TO THE FREEWAY I WAS STILL IN PARKING LOT SPEED LIMIT 10 MILES PER HOUR WHEN MY VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN I RESTARTED IT FIRST TRY DROVE A FEW FEET IT SHUT DOWN AGAIN I HAD NO CONTROL OF THE STEERING AT ALL I FINALLY MANAGED TO PULL INTO A PARKING SPOT I CALL SNETHCAMP DEALER IN REDFORD MI I SPOKE TO KATE SHE SUGGESTED IT WAS THE OIL BUT I CHECKED AND THE OIL WAS FINE I GOT IT STARTED AND DROVE TO THE DEALERSHIP WITH THE ENGINE LIGHT ON BUT IT NEVER BLINKED I EXPLAINED TO SERVICE THAT THE TRUCK JUST SHUT DOWN THEN IT TRIED TO START BUT TOOK A MINUTE TO CRANK DIAGNOSTIC SHOWED P0335 CRANK SHAFT SENSOR FAILED PINS WORN OUTS DEALERSHIP REPLACED CRANKSHAFT SENSOR, CONNECTOR, WIRING 3 WAY I'VE BEEN READING THE COMPLAINTS ON THE INTERNET ABOUT THE JEEP COMPASS JUST STALLING OUT BUT THERE ISN'T ANY RECALL THE INTERNET IS LOADED WITH THE COMPLAINT OF THIS PROBLEM I AM BEGGING YOU TO PLEASE INVESTIGATE THIS BEFORE SOMEONE IS SERIOUSLY HURT

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE AT THE NORMAL SPEED IT SUDDENLY BEGINS TO SLOW DOWN TO A SNAIL PACE. THE THROTTLE LIGHT AND THE STABILITY LIGHT CAME ON

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING AND DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL, THE VEHICLE MADE A LOUD SCREECHING SOUND WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO ANTWERPEN CHRYSLER JEEP (6440 BALTIMORE NATIONAL PIKE, BALTIMORE, MD 21228, (410) 788-2973) WHERE THE BRAKES WERE REPLACED. SOON AFTER THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, THE FAILURE OCCURRED AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT THERE WERE NO RECALLS LISTED ON THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 54,710.

MY CAR STALLED AS I WAS DRIVING, LUCKY ENOUGH I WAS COMING TO A STOP LIGHT. WHEN I TURNED IT BACK ON IT WORKED FINE. I HAVE READ THIS IS A COMMAND THING TO HAPPEN IN JEEP COMPASS.

A RATTLE NOISE IN THE BACK COMPARTMENT WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR. SOUNDS LIKE SOMETHING BROKEN INSIDE THE TRUNK COMPARTMENT.

EVERY TIME I START MY 2015 JEEP COMPASS,R STATIONARY AND RUNNING, I SEE A WARNING LIGHT APPEAR REGARDING MY AIR BAG, INDICATING THE AIRBAG SYSTEM HAS FAILED. POSSIBLY A SIMPLE RESET, HOWEVER, JEEP HAS HAD OTHER YEAR JEEPS RECALLED REGARDING FAULTY AIRBAGS. *TR

I STARTED MY 2015 JEEP COMPASS SPORT AND TRIED TO SHIFT OUT PARK INTO REVERSE AND IT WOULDN'T LET ME SHIFT FOR ABOUT THIRTY SECONDS OR SO. I WAS AT THE STORE READY TO LEAVE FOR HOME.

I WAS DRIVING ON THE SERVICE ROAD ABOUT TO ENTER ONTO A MAJOR HIGHWAY AND MY JEEP HAD THREE CAUTION LIGHTS POP UP ON THE DASHBOARD. NEXT THING I KNOW MY RPMS WERE ALL OVER (LIMP MODE) AND MY CARS POWER STARTED TO STALL. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND WAS IN A REALLY BAD SPOT THAT HAD NO SHOULDER. I RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS LIT. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT INTO A PARKING LOT. THIS WAS QUITE A SCARY SITUATION AND HAD ME FEARING FOR MY SAFETY. I LOOKED UP THIS PROBLEM AND SEEMS LIKE QUITE AN OCCURENCE. I HAD MY TRUCK TOWED TO THE NEAREST JEEP SERVICE STATION AND WAS TOLD THEY HAD TO PUT ME ON EMERGENCY LIST FOR LOANER VEHICLE (MIND YOU, I LEASE MY JEEP) AND WAS TOLD THEY WERE BACKED UP IN SERVICE. THAT LOCATION TOLD ME IT WAS A PCM CODE ERROR. I CALLED OTHER SERVICE LOCATIONS AND WAS TOLD I NEEDED TO TOW IT TO MY HOME STATION IN ORDER TO GET A LOANER. THE CAR SAT FOR OVER A WEEK AND WAS FINALLY LOOKED AT TODAY. I AM NOW TOLD THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MY JEEP HAS VERY LITTLE WEAR AND ONLY HAS 53,000 MILES. THIS ISSUE IS WAY TOO COMMON TO NOT BE CONSIDERED AS HAZARDOUS.

THE DIP STICK TUBE HAS BROKEN OFF. IT WAS MAKING A NOISE LIKE SOMETHING DRAGGING THE GROUND SO I LOOKED UNDER IT & SAW WHERE THE TUBE WAS BARELY HANGING ON. I WAS NEAR MY HOME WHEN I FOUND THIS.

THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTOL LIGHT CAME ON AND I EXPERIENCED THROTTLE CONTROL FAILURE WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION GOING ABOUT 45MPH, AT NIGHT, IN THE RAIN, IN A CONSTRUCTION ZONE, WITH A VEHICLE BEHIND ME AND ONCOMING TRAFFIC, AND MY CHILD IN THE CAR. THE CAR SEEMED TO STALL OUT AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE, I WAS ABLE TO QUICKLY TURN ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS AND TURN THE IGNITION OFF AND RESTART THE VEHICLE AND GO. THIS COULD HAVE BEEN A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT!!!!! THE MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT REMAINS ON.

THROTTLE CONTROL FAILURE WHILE OPERATING VEHICLE. HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES WITH NO REAL ANSWER FOR REPAIR OR CAUSE FOR FAILURE. CAUSES: LOSS OF CONTROL, SPEED AND ACCELERATION ON HIGHWAY. VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION THAT CAN POTENTIALLY CAUSE DEATH AND/OR SERIOUS ACCIDENT IF NOT CORRECTED. ## VIN PASSED ## JEEP COMPASS 2015 ##

I WAS DRIVING DOWN INTERSTATE 75 ON CHRISTMAS EVE WITH MY PARTNER AND OUR DOG WHEN MY VEHICLE COMPLETELY STALLED. LUCKILY, WE WERE ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BUT IT WAS TERRIFYING DUE TO THE ABRUPTNESS OF THE STALL AND THE VEHICLES BEHIND US STILL GOING A NORMAL SPEED. WE HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT IT 3 MONTHS PRIOR AND THEY DIAGNOSED THE ISSUE AS THE WIRING HARNESS FOR THE CPS. TO MAKE MATTERS WORSE, THE DEALERSHIP INSISTED ON CHARGING $305 FOR THE PART AND LABOR. OVERALL, THIS HAS BEEN AN EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTING EXPERIENCE WITH JEEP DUE TO THE TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE ON THE INTERSTATE AND THE PRICE GOUGING BY THE DEALERSHIP. I WILL BE WORKING TO SELL THIS JEEP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS NOW, MY JEEP SUDDENLY LOSES POWER AND DECELERATES. THE ENGINE LIGHT, ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT AND STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT COME ON, THE JEEP RUNS VERY ROUGH AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. AFTER PULLING OVER AND TURNING THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON AND THE OTHER LIGHTS GO OFF BUT AFTER DRIVING A BIT THE PROBLEM OCCURS AGAIN. WHEN SCANNED THE CODE IS U0401 STATING THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH COMMUNICATION TO THE PCM. THERE IS ONLY 88700 MILES ON THE JEEP. THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY IS GOOD TO 100000 BUT THE DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THE PCM IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE DRIVETRAIN WARRANTY. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE THERE ARE MANY REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHE JEEP COMPASSES AND PATRIOTS. BOTH TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY IT HAS BEEN A PARTICULARLY SCARY SITUATION DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE JEEP RAPIDLY DECELERATES AND THE TRAFFIC BEHIND ME HAS HAD DIFFICULTY SLOWING AS QUICKLY. THIS HAPPENED 12/16/18 AS WELL AS 12 /6/18 AND 12/17/18

I HAVE HAD MY 2015 JEEP COMPASS FOR 2 YEAR AND 8 MONTHS. I BOUGHT IT USED. SINCE THE MOMENT I BOUGHT IT, I HAVE HAD ACCELERATION ISSUES. MY CAR WON'T SHIFT INTO GEAR IMMEDIATELY WHEN I MAKE TURNS. JUST RECENTLY THE THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT STARTED BLINKING. AS OF TODAY THE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE OVER 20 MPH AND THEN I WASN'T ABLE TO ACCELERATE ANYMORE. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND SHUT THE CAR OFF, I WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND RESTARTED THE CAR. AS SOON AS I MADE A U-TURN THE LIGHT COME BACK ON. I PLAYED WITH THE DIFFERENT DRIVE SETTINGS AS A COASTED BACK HOME. ONCE I MADE IT HOME (6 MINUTES) THE THROTTLE LIGHT WENT OFF AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON.

MY VEHICLE HAS BEEN STALLING AS OF THE LAST WEEK. LESS THAN 36,000 MILES. IT HAPPENS AT A COMPLETE STOP OR DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD. I WAS ENTERING THE FLOW OF TRAFFIC MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN FROM A COMPLETE STOP AND MY CAR STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND RESTART MY CAR. I BROUGHT IT TO MY LOCAL DEALER WHERE THIS WAS PURCHASED AS THEY HAD PREVIOUSLY TOLD ME THERE WAS A RECALL FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND NEEDED A SOFTWARE UPDATE. BUT WHEN THEY RAN MY VIN THEY TOLD ME THEY MADE A MISTAKE. THIS IS A REAL SAFETY ISSUE!!! MY DEALER MADE THE ISSUE EVEN WORSE, FINALLY THEY SUPPOSEDLY MADE SOME UPDATES AND SENT ME ON MY WAY. THINKING THE ISSUE WAS ALL SET. WRONG THE FOLLOWING DAY I HAD THE SAME ISSUE AND CONTINUE TO HAVE THIS ISSUE. HOW DO I GET MY VEHICLE INCLUDED IN THE RECALL???

I'M HAVING AN ISSUE WITH MY 2015 JEEP COMPASS (50,000 MILES) NOT ONLY THAT, THE DEALERSHIP HAS EITHER NO IDEA HOW TO FIX IT OR THEY DON'T WANT TO. IF I DIED, MY SON WOULD BE ORPHANED. THE CAR IS UNSAFE TO DRIVE. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS WITH NO WARNING MY ENGINE HAS SHUT DOWN. MY CAR DOESN'T TURN OFF, IT JUST WON'T DRIVE ANYMORE . THE ONLY LIGHT THAT COMES ON IS THE ESC ACTIVATION/MALFUNCTION. I HAVE TO STOP IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. TURN THE IGNITION OFF AND TURN IT BACK ON TO GET IT TO GO. IT HAS DONE THIS AT LEAST 10 TIMES NOW. I NEARLY GOT INTO A ACCIDENT TRYING TO TURN LEFT, AND AGAIN MERGING ONTO THE FREEWAY. THE STEERING WHEEL BECOMES HARD TO TURN AND I CAN PUT THE GAS PEDDLE ALL THE WAY DOWN, IT DOES NOT ACCELERATE. NO RPMS. I HAVE BROUGHT IT TO THE DEALERSHIP TO BE SCANNED FOUR TIMES AFTER IT HAS HAPPENED. I'VE BEEN A RENTAL CAR FOR THREE DAYS NOW. THERE ARE NO CODES IN THE COMPUTER. AND THEY SAY THEY NEED TO REPRODUCE THE ISSUE IN ORDER TO FIX IT. IT'S A SAFETY ISSUE AND I AM DESPERATELY TRYING TO FIGURE IT OUT.

THE HEADREST ON THE DRIVER'S SIDE SEAT EXPLODED AGAINST MY HEAD WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I TOOK IT TO THE BODY SHOP AND THE MECHANIC SAW THAT THE PLASTIC PIECE THAT HOLDS THE HEADREST DOWN BROKE. LOOKING AT THE HEADREST YOU CAN SEE JAGGED PIECES OF PLASTIC.

2015 JEEP COMPASS - THE VEHICLE WILL DRIVE FINE THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I WILL HAVE DIFFICULTIES ACCELERATING, THE VEHICLE ALSO HAS STALLED. I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE BY A LOCAL MECHANIC AND THE RESULTS CAME BACK NORMAL, I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE BY THE DEALERSHIP AND THE TEST CAME BACK NORMAL AS WELL AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE HOWEVER THERE WAS THIS PERSISTENT ISSUE OF NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE AND STALLING. THE DEALERSHIP HAD MY VEHICLE FOR APPROXIMATELY 2 WEEKS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR AND HAS NOW CONCLUDED THAT IT IS THE THROTTLE BODY(I BELIEVE THIS IS A WILD GUESS) AND WILL COST ME 1400 DOLLARS. I HAVE SEEN RECENT RECALLS ON JEEP COMPASSES THAT HAVE VERY SIMILAR ISSUES THAT ARE FOR THE 2016 AND 2017 MODELS THAT INVOLVE THE CRANK SHAFT SENSOR. I AM VERY CONCERNED I BELIEVE THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THE WAY THE VEHICLE BUILT AND EVEN IF I HAVE THE THROTTLE BODY FIXED ITS REALLY A DEEPER ISSUE BECAUSE ALL DIAGNOSTIC TESTING IS COMING BACK NORMAL.

ABOUT 10 DAYS AGO, MY JEEP COMPASS WAS INVOLVED IN AN INCIDENT WHERE I HAD TO APPLY MY BRAKES ALL OF THE SUDDEN, AS A DEER JUMPED RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY VEHICLE,OUT OF BUSHES. AS I WAS APPLYING BRAKES, THE ABS BRAKES DID NOT ENGAGE, AS MY BRAKE PEDAL DID NOT TAP BACK, AND WHEN JEEP FINALLY STOPPED, DRIVER SEATBELT DID NOT LOCK, AS IT SHOULD HAVE, AND I HAVE HIT MY HEAD ON THE CEILING, AT THE POINT WHERE IT MEETS THE WINDSHIELD. THE INCIDENT HAS REOCCURRED WITH SEATBELT FAILING TO LOCK AGAIN, TODAY, 10 DAYS AFTER THE ISSUE WAS REPORTED TO JEEP OFFICIALS, WHO HAVE FAILED TO TAKE IMMEDIATE AND APPROPRIATE ACTION IN THIS POTENTIAL LIFE THREATENING MATTER. AS I HAVE EXCRETED ALL AVAILABLE RESOURCES OF GETTING HELP IN THIS INCIDENT RESOLUTION,I KINDLY ASK U.S. GOVERNMENT TO TAKE CHARGE OF THIS ISSUE AND INVESTIGATE IN AN APPROPRIATE MATTER, AS I MAY BE NOT THE ONLY OWNER AFFECTED BY THE DRIVER SEATBELT FAILURE AND THIS ISSUE NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED BEFORE POSSIBLE FATALITIES OCCUR RELATED TO SIMILAR VEHICLES BEING INVOLVED IN ACTUAL MVAS AND DRIVER SEATBELT NOT ENGAGING THE LOCKING MECHANISM, WHEN NEEDED. AS IN BOTH INCIDENTS MENTIONED ABOVE, MY VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AS A RESULT OF BRAKE PEDAL APPLICATION. BOTH INCIDENTS TOOK PLACE ON RURAL ROADS WITH AVERAGE SPEED LIMIT OF 45MPH. *TT *DT*JB

BACK IN JUNE/JULY 2018 MY VEHICLE WOULD KEEP BUCKING WHILE DRIVING AND THE THROTTLE LIGHT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WOULD COME ON. I CALLED DEALERSHIP AND THEY TOLD ME NOT TO DRIVE IT UNTIL IT WAS SERVICED. THE VEHICLE ONLY HAD 53,000 MILES BUT WAS OVER THE WARRANTY AND WAS NOT COVERED UNDER THE POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. I FEEL THIS SHOULD HAVE BEEN COVERED. I SEE A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING ABOUT THIS. WILL THIS BE RECALLED. IT COST ME OVER $500.00 TO FIX THIS. LET ALONE THE DANGEROUS DRIVING SITUATION WITH IT LOSING POWER WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR ROUTE WITH ALOT OF TRAFFIC. I ALSO HAD TO HAVE MY POWER WINDOW UNIT REPLACED. IT GOT STUCK WHILE DOWN. I TOOK IT TO DEALERSHIP WHILE UNDER WARRANTY THEY FIXED IT. BUT IT HAPPENED AGAIN AFTER WARRANTY WAS OVER AND I WAS CHARGED TO REPLACE MOTOR. IS THIS WHY JEEP ONLY GIVES 3 YEAR WARRANTIES BECAUSE THEIR PARTS AREN'T DESIGNED TO LAST MUCH AFTER THAT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE HAD BEEN A PROGRESSING FAILURE WITH A LEAK COMING FROM THE SUNROOF. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INSPECTED OR DIAGNOSED BY A DEALER AS OF YET. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

VEHCILE WAS INVOLVED A A 50 MPH FRONT END COLLISION WITH A GUARD RAIL ON A STATE HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLE SUFFERED EXTENSIVE FRONT END DAMAGE. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY AND THE DRIVER'S SEAT BELT DID NOT LOCK UP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP COMPASS. AFTER THE CONTACT PARKED AND EXITED THE VEHICLE, SHE WAS ALERTED BY SOMEONE THAT THE VEHICLE ROLLED INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE PARKING LOT. ALSO, THE CONTACT COULD REMOVE THE KEY FROM THE IGNITION WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS NOT IN PARK. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED PRIOR TO THE FAILURE; HOWEVER, ALL THE WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED ON THE INSTRUMENT PANEL AFTERWARDS WHEN THE CONTACT STARTED THE ENGINE. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE HOME. THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 40,533.

TAKATA RECALL THE THROTTLE CONTROL INDICATOR CAME ON AND THEN I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE THROTTLE INDICATOR LIGHT WENT OFF AND COME BACK ON RANDOMLY. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE ARE TWO SENSORS THAT HAVE BEEN KNOW TO GO BAD ON JEEPS AND ONE IF NOT BOTH WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THERE WAS NO WARNING JUST LOST ALL ACCELERATION CAPABILITY GOING 60MPH IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY.

I WAS DRIVING THE CAR AT ABOUT 25 MPH AND AS I CAME TO A STOP THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I TRIED TO CONTINUE DRIVING BUT IT WOULDN'T DRIVE AS I PRESSED ON THE ACCELERATOR.THE PRND ALL HAD A SQUARE AROUND THEM. THE MECHANIC WAS ABLE TO FIX THE PROBLEM BY MAKING SURE ALL CABLES WERE CLEAR FROM DUST, DEBRIS OR NOT CONNECTED PROPERLY. THAT SEEMED TO WORK THE FIRST TIME. AFTER 5 DAYS OF DRIVING THE CAR IT HAPPENED AGAIN. AS I MERGED INTO THE EXPRESSWAY THE CAR SUDDENLY LOST ACCELERATION. CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, SLIP INDICATOR, TEMPERATURE WARNING LIGHT ALL CAME ON, AND PRND ALL HAD A SQUARE AROUND THEM. THE CAR WOULDN'T RUN PROPERLY, AS IF IT WAS STUCK IN FIRST GEAR. IT WOULDN'T DRIVE PAST 15MPH. TOOK IT TO THE MECHANIC AND 7 WIRES WERE BURNED OUT. I BELIEVE THE WIRES THAT GO TO THE TRANSMISSION. HE EXPLAINED TO ME THAT THE WIRES WERE OVER A SHARP EDGE ON THE BODY AND WHEN THE CAR MOVED THE WIRES WOULD RUB AGAINST THE SHARP EDGE BECAUSE THERE WAS NOTHING PROTECTING THE WIRES FROM THE BODY. HE ALSO SAID THERE WAS A SPARK MARK ON THE BODY OF THE CAR AND THAT WAS DUE TO THE SHORT CIRCUIT THE WIRES CAUSED.

THIS VEHICLE SLIPS OUT GEAR EASILY WHILE IN MOTION. THE GEAR SHIFT CAN KNOCKED OUT OF DRIVE AND THIS IS DANGEROUS BECAUSE YOU THEN HAVE TO FIND A SPOT TO STOP AND PUT THE CAR BACK INTO DRIVE. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE STREET . THIS HAS HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES (DAUGHTER ACCIDENTALLY HIT IT WITH HER KNEE, PURSE STRAP FELL OVER THE SHIFT, BAG PULLED IT OUT OF DRIVE).

I HAVE TAKEN THIS VEHICLE TO BE LOOKED AT AT THE JEEP DEALERSHIP IT WAS PURCHASED FROM AND AT A LOCAL BODY SHOP. BOTH PLACES CLAIM THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT, BUT EVERY TIME WE DRIVE IT ON THE HIGHWAY AND TRY TO PICK UP SPEED, IT STALLS. THERE HAVE BEEN A FEW TIMES WHEN I AM TRYING TO PASS SOMEONE AND I BEGIN TO ACCELERATE AND MY JEEP WILL NOT INCREASE SPEED AND STALLS AS WELL. I HAVE TO PUT MY FOOT ALL THE WAY DOWN ON THE GAS PEDAL TO GET IT SEMI MOVING. I BEGAN TO RESEARCH JEEP COMPASS RECALLS AND I FOUND THIS - "CHRYSLER IS RECALLING AN ESTIMATED 522 VEHICLES, INCLUDING THE 2014 JEEP COMPASS AND PATRIOT, 2013 DODGE AVENGER AND CHRYSLER 200 EQUIPPED WITH 2.4-LITER ENGINES FOR A POTENTIAL LOSS OF ENGINE OIL PRESSURE THAT COULD LEAD TO AN ENGINE STALL OR ENGINE FAILURE." I FEEL AS IF MY JEEP HAS THIS SAME ISSUE.

THE AIRBAG LIGHT GOES ON INTERMITTENTLY WHILE DRIVING BECAUSE OF THE DRIVER SEAT BELT SENSOR ISSUES PER THE MECHANIC. ALSO, THE PASSENGER SEAT RECLINE LEVER BROKE RIGHT OFF, SO WE CAN NO LONGER RECLINE. MORE IMPORTANTLY, THE CAR SOMETIMES WON'T EVEN START. DASHBOARD PANEL JUST REMAINS BLACK, AND THE ENGINE DOES NOT EVEN TURN OVER. JUST SILENT. AFTER WAITING A FEW MOMENTS, IT STARTS PERFECTLY. MECHANICS DON'T KNOW.

SOME HOW DRIVERS W. TARIQ YEAR OF BIRTH: 1987 DRIVER LICENSE: 29XXXXXX LICENSE STATE: PA THIS CAR OWNER IS SHAFAQE TARIQ KINDLY PLEASE CHANGE THE INFORMATION.

THE VEHICLE SHUTS DOWN ON 3 DIFFERENT OCCASIONS. LOST ALL POWER TO THE VEHICLE, LEFT STRANDED 3 TIMES ONLY TO BE JUMPED STARTED, THIS SHOULD NOT HAPPEN WITH A NEW VEHICLE WITH ONE OWNER, AND LIMITED DRIVING. ALL TIMES THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2015 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE CHECK ENGINE, TRACTION CONTROL, AND ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO A LOCAL DEALER (HUFFINES CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM LEWISVILLE LOCATED AT 1024 S SLEMMONS FWY LEWISVILLE, TX 75067 469-293-3618) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE THROTTLE BODY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE, BUT DID NOT OFFER ANY ASSISTANCE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 52,000.

PLASTIC PIECES THAT HOLD SEAT BELTS AND HANDLE TO ADJUST SEATS ARE BOTH BROKEN OFF.

THE ENGINE SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING
