2018 Jeep Compass Complaint Log

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE TO WORK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SUBURBAN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF FARMINGTON HILLS (38123 W 10 MILE RD, FARMINGTON HILLS, MI 48335, (248) 476-7900) WHERE NO OIL WAS DISCOVERED ON THE DIPSTICK. THE DEALER PERFORMED AN OIL CHANGE AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO CHECK BACK AFTER 1,000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING A RIGHT TURN, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE ENGINE WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND THE SPEED WOULD NOT EXCEED 35 MPH. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT CHECKED THE OIL AND FOUND NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MILOSCH'S PALACE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (3800 S LAPEER RD, LAKE ORION, MI 48359, (248) 393-2222) WHERE THEY STATED THAT THE 2.4 LITER ENGINE CONSUMED OIL AND NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE MANUFACTURER STATED THAT AN OIL CHANGE NEEDED TO BE PERFORMED EVERY 1,000 TO 4,000 MILES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CALLED, PROVIDED A CASE NUMBER, AND PROMISED A CALL BACK. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED AND FELT THERE SHOULD BE AN IMMEDIATE RECALL ISSUED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,459. *TR*JB

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ONE MORNING AND MADE IT ABOUT 1 MILE FROM HOME BEFORE MY CAR TURNED OFF AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED. I HAD OWNED MY VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS AT THIS POINT, AND THE ENGINE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT ENGAGED. I HAD AROUND 3,000 MILES AT THIS POINT. I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND MADE IT ANOTHER 1/2 MILE BEFORE THE CAR TURNED OFF AND BRAKE ENGAGED AGAIN. STARTED THE CAR AND MADE IT THE 10 MILES THAT I HAVE TO DRIVE TO WORK. THE SAME THING HAPPENED FOR THE NEXT 3 DAYS. LUCKILY I WAS NOT ON A HIGHWAY; THIS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS! AFTER THE 3RD DAY OF THIS HAPPENING, I WENT ONLINE TO RESEARCH. APPARENTLY THE NEWER JEEP ENGINE DRINKS OIL. AT THAT POINT, MY HUSBAND HAD TO ADD 3 QUARTS OF OIL! AFTER ONLY 3,000 MILES! I CALLED CHRYSLER THE NEXT DAY AND THEY TOLD ME TO DO AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. WHEN I TALKED TO THE SERVICE AREA AT THE JEEP DEALERSHIP THEY TOLD ME THAT 95% OF THE VEHICLES ON THEIR LOT HAVE THIS PARTICULAR ENGINE THAT DRINKS OIL. I ASKED IF THERE WAS GOING TO BE A RECALL AND THEY SAID THEY HADN'T HEARD THAT. I ASKED THE WOMAN WHO IS MANAGING MY CLAIM AT CHRYSLER IF THEY CAN PUT THE OLD MOTOR IN MY VEHICLE, BUT SHE SAID I NEED TO GO THROUGH THE CONSUMPTION TEST BEFORE DETERMINING ANY SOLUTIONS. FROM WHAT I"VE BEEN READING, JEEP SEEMS TO BE DOING NOTHING ABOUT THIS. OTHER JEEP COMPASS DRIVERS DESCRIBE THEIR NEAR ACCIDENTS BECAUSE THEIR VEHICLE STOPPED ON A HIGHWAY. I FEEL THAT THIS ISSUE CAUSES A HUGE SAFETY RISK. NO ONE AT THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I BOUGHT MY VEHICLE MENTIONED THIS ISSUE; I WOULD NOT HAVE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IF I KNEW THAT IT LITERALLY SHUTS DOWN. I MENTIONED IT TO MY SALESMAN AND HE SAID HE WAS UNAWARE. I FOUND IT HARD TO BELIEVE THAT JEEP IS NOT RECOGNIZING THIS ISSUE. *DT 'PARTS OF THIS DOCUMENT HAVE BEEN REDACTED TO PROTECT PERSONALLY IDENTIFIABLE INFORMATION PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6).'*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 70 MPH, THE WINDSHIELD WIPERS FAILED TO OPERATE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BARRY SANDERS SUPERCENTER (LOCATED AT 4120 W 6TH AVE, STILLWATER, OK 74074, (405) 571-0555) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 35,919.

MY 2018 JEEP COMPASS 4WD MAKES GRUMBLE/DRONE" SOUND AT 30 MPH AND ABOVE, SOUNDS LIKE IT'S FROM THE TRANSMISSION OR DIFFERENTIAL.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AT ABOUT 65 MILES PER HOUR, WITHOUT WARNING THIS JEEP STALLS, PUTTING MY WIFE IN A POTENTIALLY FATAL OR INJURIOUS ACCIDENT SITUATION. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY KNOW AND ACCEPT AS NORMAL THIS BRAND NEW CAR BURNING A QUART OF OIL EVERY 2000 MILES AND THAT IF THE CAR GETS LOW ON OIL IT WILL QUIT RUNNING, BUT THEY NEVER TELL THE OWNER OF THE CAR, THEY ONLY SAY COME BACK IN 5000 MILES FOR NEXT OIL CHANGE, MEANWHILE THE CAR STARTS STALLING AT 3-4000 MILES

2018 JEEP COMPASS STALLED WHILE WIFE WAS ATTEMPTING TO CROSS 6 LANES OF TRAFFIC. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR INDICATORS DISPLAYED AT ALL. OIL LEVEL IN THE CAR AFTER 3000 MILES DID NOT EVEN REGISTER ON DIPSTICK, SO CAR BURNED 3+ QTS OIL. *DT

AUTO START/STOP DOES NOT FUNCTION PROPERLY 100% OF THE TIME. PULLING UP TO A RED LIGHT THE ENGINE STOPS AND ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE WILL NOT TURN BACK ON UNTIL THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN COMPLETELY TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED. CAN BECOME A DANGEROUS SITUATION IF THERE IS A VEHICLE RUNNING UP BEHIND YOU AND YOUR VEHICLE REFUSES TO START BACK UP.

SINCE WE PURCHASED THIS CAR, IT HAS UNEXPECTEDLY COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 20 TIMES. LAST YEAR, IT WAS TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP IN THE SHEEPSHEAD BAY AREA OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS A SAFETY FEATURE THAT SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN WHILE DRIVING IF THE VEHICLE WAS LOW ON OIL. IT WAS NOT AS ASCERTAINED BY THAT DEALERSHIP. THIS "SAFETY FEATURE" HAS PUT MY FAMILY'S LIFE IN IMMINENT DANGER AS THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING 60MPH ON THE GRAND CENTRAL PARKWAY AND BELT PARKWAY IN NEW YORK. ON SUNDAY, MAY 26, 2019, MY SON WAS DRIVING WITH 4 PEOPLE IN THIS CAR AND ONCE AGAIN IT SHUT DOWN WHILE TRAVELING 55MPH. FORTUNATELY, HE WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY BEFORE HE WAS REAR ENDED AVOIDING TRAGEDY. HE PROCEEDED TO DRIVE TO A FRIEND'S HOUSE ON 168TH STREET IN MANHATTAN WHILE UTILIZING CITY STREETS. THE CAR RANDOMLY SHUT DOWN 6 MORE TIMES BEFORE REACHING SAFETY. I WILL NOT ALLOW ANYONE IN MY FAMILY TO DRIVE THIS UNSAFE VEHICLE. IT WAS TOWED TO THE CHRYSLER JEEP DEALERSHIP ON HYLAN BLVD. IN STATEN ISLAND, NEW YORK. WE WERE INFORMED THAT IT WILL NOT EVEN BE EVALUATED FOR ANOTHER WEEK TO 10 DAYS. CHRYSLER DOES NOT PROVIDE RENTALS NOR DOES MY INSURANCE COMPANY ALLOW RENTALS UNLESS THE AUTO WAS IN AN ACCIDENT. I HAVE RESEARCHED AND ASKED A FRIEND WHO HAS THE SAME EXACT MODEL AND YEAR. IT IS HAPPENING TO HER, TOO. I AM APPALLED THAT THIS PROBLEM IS ASSOCIATED WITH SUPPOSED LOW OIL IN THE ENGINE. MY SON HAD THE OIL CHANGED 4 DAYS PRIOR TO THIS LATEST INCIDENT. IT IS FRIGHTENING TO THINK THAT EVEN WHEN THIS CAR IS ALLEGEDLY REPAIRED ONCE AGAIN, THAT MY SON WILL BE DRIVING THIS CAR FROM STATEN ISLAND, NEW YORK, TO THE CANARSIE SECTION OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. PLEASE ADVISE WHAT STEPS SHOULD BE TAKEN. I WOULD LIKE TO TERMINATE THE LEASE IN ANYWAY POSSIBLE.

THE JEEP STALLS, SHUTS OFF AND TURNS ON ITS OWN E BRAKE WHEN IT RUNS LOW ON OIL. BUT IT RUNS OUT OF OIL EVERY 2000 MILES!!!!!!! IVE TAKEN IT TO JEEP AND THEY SAY, OH THATS NORMAL !?!?!?!?! IVE ALMOST BEEN HIT SEVERAL TIMES GOING AROUND A ROUND A BOUT AND HAVING IT LOCK UP LIKE THAT BECAUSE ITS LOW ON OIL - AND IM GOING BROKE BUYING OIL CHANGES ALL THE TIME THIS CAR IS HORRIBLE, ALSO THE RADIO COMPLETELY AND RANDOMLY TURNS OFF, DISPLAY EVERYTHING - WHILE DRIVING!

THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED FIVE TIMES DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE STALLED IT HAS BEEN HOT OUT. THE CAR STALLS AND SEVERAL ERROR LIGHTS FLASH; PARKING BREAK, HILL-STOP, OIL-CHANGE, ETC.. THE CAR THEN WON'T TURN OFF, BUT JUST STAYS IN ON MODE BUT WILL NOT MOVE. JEEP WILL NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THEY SAY THAT BECAUSE THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE IT, THE CAR IS 'FINE'. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES. THIS IS A KNOWN AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ISSUE AND THEY WILL NOT ADMIT IT.

THE ENGINE BURNS OIL AT AN EXTREMELY FAST RATE. EVERY 3,000 MILES THERE IS NO OIL LEFT IN THE CAR AND THE CAR WILL STALL OUT WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING. IT IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD AND SOMEBODY IS GOING TO GET KILLED IF THIS HAPPENS AT THE WRONG TIME. *DT CONSUMER STATED OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WAS DONE BUT DEALER TOLD CONSUMER IT WAS NORMAL TO STALL.*JB

DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND THE VEHICLE JUST STALLED. ALMOST WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT TRYING TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES VEHICLE STARTED AGAIN. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND WAS ADVISED TO CHECK THE OIL AS THIS VEHICLE USES OIL. VEHICLE HAS 5612 MILES ON IT. OIL WAS ADDED AND THEN ADVISED I NEEDED TO BRING IN FOR OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. ONLY THING I WAS ADVISED WAS THAT MUST BRING IN VEHICLE FOR NEXT 2000 MILES THEN AGAIN 2000 MILES MORE. SO AT THIS TIME, I AM DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT STALLS AND NOT GIVEN A REASON AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MYSELF AND PASSENGERS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MYSELF, AND ANY ONE ELSE THAT IS ON THE ROAD WITH ME WHEN VEHICLE JUST DECIDES TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING.

THIS WOULD BE THE SECOND TIME ON THIS 2018 JEEP COMPASS WITH ONLY 5000K MILES THAT THE VEHICLE CONSUMES ENGINE OIL LEAVING IT VERY LOW WITH ALMOST NO OIL ON THE DIP STICK. FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED THE VEHICLE ONLY HAD 2000K MILES. THE FIRST TIME I ENCOUNTERED A PROBLEM WAS ON THE FREEWAY HEADING HOME WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AND THE VEHICLE SHOOK AS WELL, AS IF IT WERE STRUGGLING. THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT AWAY BUT THE NEXT COUPLE OF TIMES AS I DROVE ON THE STREET THE VEHICLE WOULD TURN OFF A FEW TIMES. IT WOULD TURN BACK ON BUT IT STRUGGLED A LITTLE TO TURN ON. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AT 2000K MILES THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM ON THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE DOESNT LEAK ANY OIL. THEY ALSO DID A FEW UPDATES TO THE VEHICLE COMPUTER BECAUSE IF WAS IN NEED OF UPDATES. NOW VEHICLES IS AT 5OOOK MILES AND ONCE AGAIN VERY LOW OIL IN ENGINE. CURRENTLY THE VEHICLE DOESNT STALL OR HAVE ANY LIGHTS ON. I WILL BE GOING BACK TO THE DEALER AGAIN TO GET IT CHECKED ABOUT THE CONSUMPTION.

ENGINE BURNING WAY MORE OIL THAN IT SHOULD, THE VEHICLE THEN WILL SEIZE AND SHUT DOWN. THIS CAN BE AT ANY POINT WHILE DRIVING AND GIVES NO WARNING AS TO WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN. JEEP WILL NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY ABOUT THIS HAZARDOUS ISSUE IN THEIR ENGINES YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO CHECK YOUR OIL ALL THE TIME TO MAKE SURE IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP WILL HAVE YOU COME IN FOR A CONSUMPTION TEST AND EVEN PUTTING A CLAIM INTO JEEP CORPORATE, THEY WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE HOW BAD OF A PROBLEM THAT IS. THEIR NEEDS TO BE A RECALL OR FIX SOON OR THEIR WILL BE LAWSUITS UNFORTUNATELY WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS.

WHILE ACCELERATING ONTO A HIGHWAY, MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. I IMMEDIATELY PUT HAZARDS ON, TRIED TO PULL TO THE SIDE, STOPPED AND TRIED TURNING THE CAR BACK ON, AFTER 2 ATTEMPTS IT TURNED BACK ON BUT I WAS SCARED THE ENTIRE HOUR LONG RIDE HOME SO DROVE IN THE SLOW LANE SO THAT I COULD PULL RIGHT OFF THE HIGHWAY IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR SERVICE AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE HOOD LATCH SENSOR. THEY REPLACED IT AND IT WORKED FINE FOR A MONTH OR SO THEN AGAIN THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ABOUT 40 MPH, CAR SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. AGAIN ANOTHER SCARY EXPERIENCE. TOOK THE CAR BACK AND THEY SAID THE ACTUAL HOOD LATCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. PULLED OUT OF SERVICE CENTER AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN, PULLED BACK IN TO SERVICE CENTER AND A DAY LATER THEY CALLED AND SAID HOOD NEEDED REALIGNMENT. WORKED AGAIN FOR A FEW MONTHS THEN TODAY, AGAIN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, OIL PRESSURE LOW WARNING FLASHED ON MY DASH THEN WENT OFF, THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT FLASHED ON THEN YET ANOTHER WARNING THAT READ SWITCH TO P THEN DESIRED GEAR. CAR THEN LOST ALMOST ALL POWER BUT LUCKILY HAD JUST ENOUGH POWER TO GET ME TO A SIDE ROAD WHERE I BARELY MADE IT ONTO THE ROAD BEFORE IT SHUT OFF. I TRIED TURNING IT BACK ON AND AFTER 2 TRIES IT POWERED ON BUT WHEN I PUT INTO DRIVE AND HIT THE GAS, IT WOULD NOT MOVE. IT WAS LIKE IT WOULD NOT ENGAGE IN GEAR. THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD AS THIS VEHICLE SUDDENLY STOP WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING.

I HAVE HAD TWO INSTANCES WITHIN A 2 MONTHS OF EACH OTHER WHERE MY NEW JEEP COMPASS HAS BROKEN DOWN AND NEEDED TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. BACK IN FEBRUARY, I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS STRANGE. I CAME UP TO A STOP SIGN AND TRIED TO ACCELERATE AGAIN, AND I CRAWLED THROUGH THE INTERSECTION WITH NO POWER, RPMS SHOOTING THROUGH THE ROOF, AND MY WHOLE VEHICLE SHAKING VIOLENTLY. THE HARDER I PRESSED ON THE GAS, THE SLOWER IT WENT. THERE WAS ONCOING TRAFIC AT THIS TIME, SO IM GLAD NO ACCIDENT OCCURED. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT I NEEDED TWO SOFTWARE UPDATES, FOR MY TRANSMISSION AND ONE OTHER ONE, AND IT FIXED THE PROBLEM. FAST FORWARD TO APRIL 27, 2019, IM DRIVING 50 MPH AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN. I COME TO A STOP SIGN AGAIN, AND TRY TO ACCELERATE, ONLY FOR THE SAME THING TO HAPPEN AS LAST TIME. I MADE IT HOME AND HAD MY CAR TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AGAIN. THE SAID THAT THEY DID NOT SEE A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON AND WERE NOT ABLE TO FIND THAT ONE HAD EVER BEEN ON WHEN THEY CHECKED THE COMPUTER IN THE VEHICLE. THIS IS ALARMING BECAUSE IT WAS IN FACT ON, AND MY WHOLE VEHICLE WAS BASICALLY DISABLED AND SHAKING VIOLENTLY. THEY SAID SINCE THEY COULDNT FIND ANYTHING THAT THERE WAS NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO FIX THE PROBLEM UNLESS THEY CAN RECREATE IT. THERE IS CLEARLY SOMETHING MAJORLY WRONG WITH THIS CARS COMPUTER SYSTEM IF IT RANDOMLY DOES THIS WITH NO WARNING, AND IT IS DANGEROUS. IT DOESNT EVEN WORK ENOUGH TO LOG THE HISTORY OF ENGINE LIGHTS THAT ARE TRIGGERED. I DONT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT. IT IS UNDER A YEAR OLD AND ONLY HAD 9500 MILES ON IT WHEN THIS HAPPEND THE FIRST TIME, NOW IT HAS 13000 MILES ON IT AND IS STILL NEW. THIS IS A MAJOR ISSUE WHEN THE SERVICE SHOP I BOUGHT IT FROM CANT EVEN FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG.

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE UNDER NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS ON A BUSY STREET THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AUTONOMOUSLY SHUT DOWN ALMOST CAUSING A CATASTROPHIC MULTI CAR COLLISION. VEHICLE COULD NOT BE RESTARTED AND NEEDED TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. STILL AWAITING CORRECT DIAGNOSIS FROM DEALER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE THE CONTACT WAS MERGING INTO HIGHWAY TRAFFIC, THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL SUDDENLY BECAME STUCK AND CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO ACCELERATE. DURING THE FAILURE, THE SPEED INCREASED TO MORE THAN APPROXIMATELY 80 MPH AND SEVERAL WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED, INCLUDING THE SERVICE ENGINE AND THROTTLE. THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL EVENTUALLY BECAME UNSTUCK AND THE VEHICLE WAS SHUT OFF. AFTER RESTARTING THE ENGINE, THE SENSOR WARNINGS WERE NO LONGER ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. FALLS MOTOR CITY (4100 STATE RD, CUYAHOGA FALL, OH) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,817.

AFTER HAVING MY JEEP FOR LESS THAN 7,000 MILES, I NOTICED THAT MY FRONT TWO TIRES WERE COMPLETELY BALD ON THE INSIDES. BROUGHT IT TO MULTIPLE SHOPS AND THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I GOT IT, I WAS TOLD I NEEDED TO ROTATE MY TIRES MORE AND THAT NEW CARS GET POOR QUALITY TIRES PUT ON THEM. I WAS ALSO TOLD TO MONITOR MY INFLATION AND IT HAS BEEN KEPT PERFECTLY. I HAVE ROTATED MY TIRES AT AROUND 8,000 MILES AND AM CURRENTLY AT 12,000 AND I CAN ALREADY NOTICE THE SAME WEAR PATTERN ON MY TIRES. NOBODY CAN FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR (ALIGNMENT, TIRE PRESSURE, SUSPENSION, EVERYTHING IS RIGHT) OR AN EXPLANATION OF WHY THIS IS HAPPENING.

AFTER STARTING CAR AND DRIVING EMERGENCY BREAK ENGAGES AND CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE IN MOTION. UPON TURNING OFF, "LOW OIL PRESSURE" WARNING COMES UP FOR LESS THAN 3 SECONDS AND THEN DISAPPEARS.. AND ENGINE STAYS OFF. TAKES ABOUT 5-7 MINUTES FOR CAR TO TURN BACK ON. THIS HAS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY AND BUSY INTERSECTION. SUPER DANGEROUS AND NOT SAFE... HAVE CALLED JEEP TO OPEN A CASE AND TAKING IN FOR SERVICING. THIS IS NOT OK. TRUCK IS LESS THAN 6 MONTHS, NOT EVEN 3,000 MILES.

AT 4,000 MILES, STALLED THREE TIMES, THREE DAYS IN A ROW. TOOK IT IN & THEY SAID THE ENGINE IS BURNING OFF OIL TOO QUICKLY. NO LIGHTS CAME ON, JUST KEPT STALLING. *DT CONSUMER STATED ENGINE STOPPED RUNNING.*JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE INSTRUMENT PANEL INDICATED SHIFT TO DESIRE GEAR OR PLACE VEHICLE IN PARK. A SECONDARY MESSAGE STATED AUTOMATIC START COULD NOT BE DETECTED. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THREE RIVERS CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (2633 W LIBERTY AVE, PITTSBURGH, PA 15216), TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE BATTERY NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE PERSISTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 26,800.

MY VEHICLE HAS STALLED WHEN STOPPED AT AN INTERSECTION OR ON THE HIGHWAY IN STOP & GO TRAFFIC. IT'S HAPPENED SEVERAL TIMES AND THE JEEP DEALER TELLS ME THIS WILL HAPPEN WHEN IT NEEDS AN OIL CHANGE. I PURCHASED MY VEHICLE IN JUNE 2018 AND AVE 11,800 MILES ON THE CAR AND HAVE HAD 3 OIL CHANGES, DUE TO THE VEHICLE SHUTTING DOWN WHILE STOPPED.

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY 180. THE VEHICLES SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT, TRANSMISSION LIGHT, ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE, AND SERVICE HILL HOLDER TURNED ON. I STOPPED THE VEHICLE IN THE SHOLDER. I CHECKED THE TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE OIL AND BOTH WERE GOOD. I TRIED PUTTING THE VEHICLE ON DRIVE AND THE ELECTRONIC PARKING LIGHT CAME ON AND STOPPED THE VEHICLE FROM GOING ON DRIVE. THE LIGHT STAYED ON FOR THE ELECTRONIC BRAKING SERVICE. I WAS ABLE TO TAKE IT OFF THE BRAKE STILL WITH THE SERVICE LIGHTS ON. I WAS GOING TO SHIFT IT INTO DRIVE WHEN IT MADE A STRONG POPPING AND SCREECHING SOUND ON THE TRANSMISSION WHEN PLACED ON REVERSE. I MOVED IT TO DRIVE AND IT DID THE SAMETHING. I TRIED GIVING IT GAS AND THE D FOR DRIVE WOULD JUST BLINK AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. I WAITED 30 MINUTES AND TRIED MOVING IT BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. I SWITCHED THE GEAR FROM PARKING TO DRIVE HEARING THE POPPING SOUND AS I SHIFTED FROM THE P R N D. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT FOR 10-15 MINUTES AND THE TRANSMISSION STARTED HEATING UP FROM 180F TO 192F. WHILE LEAVING THE VEHICLE STOPPED FOR A WHILE THE TRANSMISSION TEMP DID COOL OFF BUT I WILL HAVE IT SERVICED SINCE I AM STILL STOPPED AT THE HIGHWAY WITH MY FAMILY WHILE WRITING THIS.

OVER THE PAST WEEK, I HAVE HAD ABOUT 10 INSTANCES WHERE MY NEW (6 MONTH OLD - ~5K MILE) JEEP COMPASS DIED IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE, MOVE, OR ANYTHING. THE ONLY ACTION I COULD DO WAS TO BRAKE. DURING A HANDFUL OF THESE INSTANCES, I WAS IN A PARKING GARAGE, GAS STATION OR ON A SIDE STREET WHERE I WAS ABLE TO SAFELY PULL OVER AND FIGURE OUT HOW TO RESOLVE THE ISSUE. THE OTHER TIMES, I WAS DRIVING TO/FROM WORK IN THE CITY OF BOSTON. THESE EVENTS WERE EXTREMELY TERRIFYING AND THERE WAS NOTHING I COULD HAVE DONE WITHOUT WARNING TO PREVENT BEING STUCK IMMOBILE IN THESE INTERSECTIONS. WHEN THIS HAPPENS, I HAVE TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK, REMOVE THE PARKING BRAKE (WHICH AUTOMATICALLY TURNS ON WHILE DRIVING), THEN SHUT OFF THE CAR, THEN TURN ON THE CAR AGAIN (WHERE THE ENGINE TURNS OVER A FEW TIMES FIRST), THEN IT'S "GOOD" TO DRIVE AGAIN. I TOOK THE CAR TO MY JEEP DEALER (WHERE I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE) TO HAVE THE ISSUE INSPECTED/OIL CHANGED. AS A RESULT, THEY CONCLUDED THAT THE ENGINE ON MY JEEP HAS AN UNRESOLVABLE ISSUE FROM THE MANUFACTURER WHERE THE ENGINE BURNS OIL MORE THAN ADVERTISED, UNLIKE THE 2016 VERSION OF THIS VEHICLE.THEY CONFIRM THAT NO MESSAGE OR ENGINE LIGHT CODE APPEARED, AND THE ONLY WAY TO PREVENT THIS WOULD BE TO CHECK THE OIL CONSTANTLY. THEY SHOWED A PRINT OUT FROM THEIR SYSTEM THAT STATED MY CAR HAS 5 QUARTS OF OIL, AND EACH 1 QUART OF OIL SHOULD LAST ~5K MILES. THEREFORE, THE OIL SHOULD NOT BE LOW ENOUGH TO STALL AN ENGINE @ 6 MONTHS/5K MILES. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY NOT ACCEPTABLE IN A NEW VEHICLE. I HAVE NO INDICATION WHEN A PROBLEM EXISTS. IF I RECEIVED SOME SORT OF WARNING/DASHLIGHT (REALLY ANYTHING), I WOULD KNOW THE CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE UNTIL AN ISSUE IS ADDRESSED. HOWEVER, THIS DOES NOT HAPPEN, SO I HAVE TO MANUALLY CHECK THE OIL WHEN I HAVE NO EXPERTISE IN DOING SO IN ORDER TO IDENTIFY THE ISSUE.

CAR IS BURNING THROUGH OIL TOO FAST. IT HAS STALLED ON ME (WITHOUT WARNING) 5 OR 6 TIMES IN THE PAST 8 MONTHS DUE TO LOW OIL. TOOK TO DEALER TWICE AND WAS TOLD TO JUST GET AN OIL CHANGE-THEY REFUSE TO CHECK ANYTHING ELSE AND THAT THIS IS TYPICAL OF THE COMPASS. I SHOULD NOT HAVE TO SPEND THE MONEY TO GET FREQUENT OIL CHANGES ON A CAR USING SYNTHETIC OIL. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING IN A VEHICLE THAT COULD SHUT OFF AT ANYTIME WITHOUT WARNING. THIS HAPPENED AT 8100 MILES.

4800 MILES MADE MONTH FOLLOW UP OVER NEXT WEEK TRIED TO TURN OFF STOP/START FEATURE TO SEE WHAT HAPPENED FOR NEXT 6 MONTHS MPG. . I HAVE BEEN TOLD IT IS A COINCIDENCE NOT THE ISSUE BUT MY CAR STARTED SHUTTING OFF 2/3 INTO TURN, GOING UP A SLIGHT INCLINE, COUPLE TIMES SLOWING DOWN FOR TRAFFIC LIGHT, BUT NOT AT A STOP AND DIDN'T WANT TO RESTART. DAY OF CAR FOLLOW UP 3 TIMES TURNING RIGHT IT DIES AND LOW OIL PRESSURE FLICKED ON FOR ABOUT A SECOND. WAS TOLD NEEDED A NEW ENGINE THEN TODAY TOLD CHRYSLER ENGINEERS SAID NO ITS SOMETHING WITH NEW CAR AND SOLVENT CAUSING OIL ISSUE IT WAS TOO LOW BUT NOT LEAKING OUT/ I'M TOLD THEY WILL CHECK OIL CONSUMPTION EVERY 1000 MILES AND STAND BY PRODUCT, LOCAL DEALER SAID COME BACK AT 500 MILES. WHAT IF IT DIES IN HEAVY TRAFFIC OR ON HIGHWAY? TRADED AN OIL BURNING AUDI FOR JEEP IT CAN'T BE GOOD FOR THE ENGINE BUT NOW I'M FACED WITH NEW CAR AND WORRIED IT WILL DIE CAUSING ME TO END UP A STATISTIC. WHY DIDN'T LIGHT COME ON EARLIER AND WHY ONLY A SECOND TO WARN WHEN THE CAR WAS ALREADY SHUT DOWN WHEN IT WARNED ME? SOME RECALLS WERE MADE WHY ISN'T MINE OR OTHERS I'M READING ABOUT?

I WAS DRIVING 44 MPH HEADED TO A RED LIGHT INTERSECTION WITH 4 LANES OF TRAFFIC COMING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION WHEN MY JEEP SHUT OFF I HAD NO STEERING, NO BREAKS AND NO ENGINE RUNNING. I WAS MOVING FORWARD AT 44MPH UNABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE AND KEPT HITTING THE START BUTTON. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE CAR RESTARTED SAYING LOW OIL PRESSURE AND I WAS ABLE TO STEER THE CAR OFF THE ROAD BEFORE ENTERING THE INTERSECTION AND GETTING KILED. CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP D'AMBROSIO AUTO GROUP. OIL WAS CHECKED AND I WAS ADVISED THERE WAS NO OIL IN THE ENGINE, THE VEHICLE HAD 3,650 MILES ON IT AND IT'S BRAND NEW. MAINTENANCE SAYS OIL CHANGE AT 10K MILES. SERVICE MGR. TOLD ME THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED TO THE PARTS MGR. SISTER. I HAVE ALSO BEEN TOLD BY 1 OTHER PERSON THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO HER WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC. SERVICE MGR. TOLD ME TO BRING VEHICLE BACK IN 2K MILES AND IF OIL IS LOW THEY WOULD REPLACE ENGINE AT NO CHARGE. *DT*JB

I WAS DRIVING 44MPH HEADED TO A RED LIGHT WITH A 4 LANE HIGHWAY COMING THE OTHER DIRECTION. THE JEEP SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS GOING 44MPH AND I HAD NO STEERING, NO BREAKS, NO POWER AT ALL. I KEPT HITTING RESTART AND FINALLY THE ENGINE KICKED BACK ON, I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP D'AMBROSIO IN DOWNINGTOWN, PA. WHEN JEEP SHUT OFF WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON SAYING "LOW OIL PRESSURE". NO LIGHTS APPEARED PRIOR TO JEEP SHUTTING OFF WHILE GOING 44MPH. I ALMOST DIED! WHILE AT DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD BY SERVICE MANAGER THAT THE PARTS GUY'S WIFE HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO HER WHILE DRIVING HER JEEP JUST STOPPED ON THE HIGHWAY. EASTER SUNDAY MY BROTHER TOLD ME HIS FRIEND CALLED HIM AND TOLD HIM THAT HIS WIFE'S JEEP SHUT OFF WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES.

WHILE DRIVING THE JEEP COMPASSM WITH LESS THAN 5K MILES, THE CAR SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS GOING ABOUT 35 MPH WITHOUT WARNING AND LOCKED THE STEERING AND EVERYTHING. I TOOK IT TO THE JEEP DEALER AND WITHOUT HESITATION, THEY KNEW THAT IT NEEDED A BRAND NEW ENGINE BECAUSE THE CAR "SHOULD NOT BE BURNING OIL THIS QUICKLY." THEY MADE IT SEEM AS THOUGH THIS OCCURS EXTREMELY FREQUENTLY AND I HAVE READ SEVERAL FORUMS ABOUT PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME ISSUE JUST BY LOOKING UP "JEEP COMPASS BURNING OIL." THIS IS AN EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS SITUATION AND SHOULD BE ADDRESSED IMMEDIATELY. *DT CONSUMER STATED DEALER TOLD HIM RINGS AND PISTONS IN THE ENGINE AND THAT THE OLD ENGINE WAS BURNING A CRAZY AMOUNT OF OIL ENGINE WAS BURNING A TREMENDOUS AMOUNT OF OIL, DEALER HINTED THAT A RECALL MAY HAPPEN BECAUSE HOW COMMON THE PROBLEM WAS.*JB

I LEASED A 2018 JEEP COMPASS LIMITED 4X4 - WAS DRIVING WENT TO ONTO A SIDE STREET FROM A BUSY MAIN STREET , MY JEEP STALLED AND THE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT CAME ON FOR A SPLIT SECOND , AS I COSTED OFF TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD - MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT RESTART RIGHT AWAY - IT TOOK A MINUTE TO RESTART - THE VEHICLE IS ONLY 6 MONTHS OLD AND ONLY HAS 5095 MILE ON IT - I TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THE SERVICE GUY STATED THAT THE ENGINE IS KNOWN FOR" BURNING OIL " OR USING MORE THAN USUAL AND THERE WOULD NEED TO BE A CASE STARTED ON THIS TO SEE IF THE VEHICLE WILL BE REPAIRED . THIS IS NOT ACCEPTABLE TO ME THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR - THERE SHOULD NOT BE ANY ISSUES . THE COMPANY SHOULD STAND BEHIND THE CUSTOMER - NOT MAKE THEM TAKE THE PRODUCT BACK AND FOURTH 3 OR 4 TIMES BEFORE THEY WILL DO ANYTHING

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE KEPT LOSING OIL AND MORE HAD TO BE ADDED. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND THE OIL PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED PELLEGRINO CHRYSLER JEEP (241 GLASSBORO RD, WOODBURY HEIGHTS, NJ 08097, (856) 848-7474) WHO STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS WORKING AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND PROVIDED CASE NUMBER: 58460594. THE MANUFACTURER INFORMED THE CONTACT TO HAVE AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 5,235.*DT CONSUMER STATED FIRST TIME CAR STALLED ONLY HAD ABOUT 2500 MILES. CONSUMER HAD TO SHUT THE CAR OFF AND ON. CAR HAS STALLED TWICE. AT THE MOMENT CONSUMER HAS 5300 MILES AND WILL BE GETTING FIRST OIL CHANGE.*JB

THREE TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING. SLOWING TO STOP AT A LIGHT ON A HIGHWAY IN HEAVY TRAFFIC. SLOWING DOWN AT A STOP SIGN ON SIDE STREET NO TRAFFIC. TURN WITH ACCELERATION OFF A HEAVY CONGESTED AREA TO SIDE ROAD. NO ACCIDENT TO REPORT, BUT COULD HAVE BEEN A MAJOR ONE AT THE BUSIEST INTERSECTION IN TOWN. THE 3RD INCIDENT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. HAD IT READ AND CODE P2172 IS THROTTLE ACTUATOR CONTROL SYSTEM. ALL 3 TIMES WERE WITHIN 8 DAYS.

WHILE DRIVING VEHICLE AT VARYING SPEEDS THE PARKING BRAKE AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGES BY ITSELF, SHUTTING THE VEHICLE DOWN. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND THE VEHICLE IS CURRENTLY AT THE DEALERSHIP WAITING FOR REPAIR.

TL* THE CONTACT CALLED ON BEHALF OF HER MOTHER WHO OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AS AN UNKNOWN WARNING LIGHT WAS DISPLAYED ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS. THIS WOULD OCCUR WHEN 2 QUARTS OF OIL HAD BEEN USED. THE CONTACT TOOK THE VEHICLE TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC HOWEVER THE VEHICLE WAS DIAGNOSED STATED BATTERY WAS IN CHARGE MODE BUT IT WAS NOT FIXED. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED OF AN EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 1,700.*DT*JB *DT CONSUMER STATED START/STOP READY MODE DOES NOT WORK.*JB*DT*JB

PURCHASED VEHICLE IN NOVEMBER 2018, WITHIN 3 MONTHS IT HAD BURNED ALL OIL WITH ONLY 4K MILES USAGE. AFTER AN OIL CHANGE, ALL OIL WAS BURNED AGAIN WITHIN 3 WEEKS. IN MAY TOOK IT FOR ANOTHER OIL CHANGE, ONCE AGAIN DANGEROUSLY LOW. WITHIN 2 MONTHS (8K MILES) RECEIVED MULTIPLE OIL PRESSURE ALERTS AND CONTACTED DEALERSHIP TO START OIL CONSUMPTION TESTS. DEALERSHIP JUST CHANGED OIL AND TOLD ME TO COME BACK IN 1000 MILES. CURRENTLY ONLY 3 WEEKS LATER AND CONTINUING TO RECEIVE NEW OIL PRESSURE ALERTS AND UPON CHECKING OIL LEVELS, IT'S BURNED 3 QTS AND IS DANGEROUSLY LOW AGAIN. DEALERSHIP REFUSES TO DO ANYTHING OTHER THAN TOP OFF FLUIDS, WHILE USING MY FREE OIL CHANGES WITH MY JEEP WAVE PROGRAM TO CHANGE OIL/ TOP OFF FLUIDS. CURRENT MILEAGE 8863K .

THE VEHICLE BURNS THROUGH OIL VERY FAST. THE DAY BEFORE MY LAST OIL CHANGE THE CAR SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AFTER A MESSAGE POPPED UP SAYING PULL OVER. I WAS ON A CURVE ON A DIRT ROAD GOING SLOW AND DIDN'T EVEN HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO PULL OVER. WHEN TRYING TO RESTART THE CAR AND ALL KIND OF ALERTS FLASH. FINALLY THE CAR STARTED, THE NEXT DAY THE OIL WAS CHANGED AT THE DEALER, THEY DON'T CHECK THE LEVEL BEFORE THEY CHANGE THE OIL THEY SAY. THEIR FIX, DIELECTRIC GREASE ON THE DOOR. NOW AT THE EXACT MILEAGE THE NEXT OIL CHANGE IS DUE, WE OIL CHECKED BEFORE GOING TO THE DEALER AND IT IS SO LOW IT BARELY SHOWED ON THE DIP STICK. A CAR WITH 22K MILES SHOULD NOT RUN OUT OF OIL.

I WAS MAKING A RIGHT HAND TURN INTO TRAFFIC ON A BUSY HIGHWAY WHEN MY BRAND NEW 2018 JEEP COMPASS STALLED OUT. I HAD TO QUICKLY DRIFT TO SAFETY AND PUT ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS AND TRY TO START THE CAR AGAIN. I TOOK ABOUT A MINUTE TO START AGAIN. AFTER THAT IT HAPPENED SEVERAL MORE TIMES ALL WHEN I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING. I CALLED THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD THAT IT USUALLY MEANS IT NEEDS AN OIL CHANGE. I HAD THE CAR FOR 3 MONTHS AND WAS TOLD I SHOULD CHECK THE OIL EVERY 500 TO 1000 MILES EVEN THOUGH THE CAR TAKES OIL AND SHOULD BE GOOD FOR ABOUT 5,000 MILES. NEVER ONCE DID I RECEIVE ANY WARNING LIGHTS. I FEAR FOR MY SAFETY WHEN DRIVING THIS VEHICLES. *DT *DT*JB

VEHICLE STALLED ON FOUR DIFFERENT OCCASIONS ON TWO DIFFERENT DATES, TWICE WHILE YIELDING TO INTERSTATE RAMP, ONCE WHILE STOPPED AT TRAFFIC LIGHT, AND ONCE WHILE IN MOTION ON CITY STREET.. VEHICLE HAD TO BE PLACED IN PARK TO RESTART AND DID NOT ENGAGE IMMEDIATELY, ONLY AFTER MULTIPLE ATTEMPTS AND FAILED TURNOVER. REPORTED STALLS OCCURRED IN VARYIED TEMPERATURES. VEHICLE IS 4 MONTHS OLD.

I TAKE MY VEHICLE IN FOR REGULAR OIL CHANGES, HOWEVER, ON TWO OCCASIONS THEY SERVICE TECHNICIANS HAVE NOTIFIED ME THAT MY OIL IS ALMOST COMPLETELY OUT. I HAVE BEEN GETTING MY CAR SERVICES AT THE JEEP DEALERSHIP. FOR SOME REASON, MY CAR APPEARS TO BE CONSUMING RIDICULOUS AMOUNTS OF OIL AND THEY DON'T KNOW WHY. THE JUST KEEP TELLING ME TO COME BACK TO GET ANOTHER OIL CHANGE. I'M GOING THROUGH SEVERAL QUARTERS FULL SYNTHETIC QUARTS EVERY THOUSAND OR SO MILES. THE VEHICLE IS NOT LEAKING OIL ANYWHERE; AS I PARK IN THE SAME SPOTS AT WORK AND AT HOME AND HAVE SEEN NOTHING LEAKING. I HAVE BEEN NOTIFIED FROM THE DEALERSHIP THAT THIS IS A *SEPARATE AND UNRELATED ISSUE* TO THE ELECTRONIC ISSUES THAT ARE CAUSING THE VEHICLE TO STALL WITHOUT NOTICE, WHILE IN MOTION.

WHEN VEHICLE IS IN MOTION IT WILL STALL. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHERE I WAS STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AMIDST TRAFFIC, IN INTERSECTIONS, AND ONCE ON A FREEWAY. ON ONE OCCASION I WAS BRAKING TO STOP AT AN OFF RAMP OF AN INTERSTATE. ANOTHER TIME I WAS TURNING ON A RESIDENTIAL STREET. THE OTHER TWO TIMES I WAS IN MOTION ON A STRAIGHT ROAD. IN ALL THESE INSTANCES I RECEIVED ALERTS THAT MY AUTO START NEEDED SERVICING EVEN THOUGH THE DEALERSHIP JUST LOOKED AT IT AND CLEARED THE ERROR/CODE. IT WAS A MIRACLE I WASN'T HIT WHEN THESE EVENTS OCCURRED. THE EVENT HAPPENS IN THIS ORDER: GAS PEDAL STOPS WORKING, SO THE CAR BEGINS TO COAST BUT CANNOT ACCELERATE. ALL THE ENGINEER WARNING LIGHTS POP UP AT ONCE. CAR BEGINS TO BEEP (I ASSUME BECAUSE OF THE WARNING LIGHTS), STEERING WHEEL LOCKS, PREVENTING YOU FROM COASTING YOUR CAR TO THE SHOULDER, THEN THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGES SO YOU ARE STUCK WHERE YOU ARE. YOU ARE UNABLE TO START THE CAR OR MOVE THE CAR AND YOU ARE STUCK EXACTLY WHERE IT DIED. AGAIN, THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE FREEWAY, IN THE MIDDLE OF INTERSECTIONS, AND WHILE ON A REGULAR ROAD. WITHOUT WARNING - THE CAR JUST DIES. AFTER ABOUT 10 MINUTES YOU CAN START THE CAR UP AGAIN WITHOUT ISSUE, BUT YOU HAVE TO WAIT UNTIL THE CAR LETS YOU DO IT AND YOU NEVER HAVE A WARNING FOR WHEN IT'S GOING TO HAPPEN AGAIN TO PUT YOURSELF IN A SAFE POSITION ON THE ROAD. IT'S A DANGER TO THE DRIVER AND SURROUNDING VEHICLES. HONESTLY, IT'S TERRIFYING.

My jeeps auto start stop has had issues since the day I got it. Ive taken it back to jeep servicing multiple times and all they do is resent the card computer. The car still moves while in park, the car shuts off while driving on the highway (55mph) it slows down, shuts off and does start for a few mins. The entire right passenger side wheel broke off the car. The car jumps forward which cause a accident back in 2018-2019 a few months right after getting the car. The car jump forward while making a turn going 10mph.

Vehicle loses oil, 2k-3k miles after each oil change a quart or more must be added then the same after each 1,000 miles after.

AFTER STARTING CAR AND DRIVING FOR 2 MINUTES EMERGENCY BREAK ENGAGES AND CAR SHUTS OFF WHILE IN MOTION, UPON TURNING OFF THE CAR AND RESTARTING WHILE TURNING RIGHT THE LOW PRESSURE SENSOR APPEARS THEN DISAPPEARS AND SERVICE ENGINE WARNING COMES ON CAR COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF WHILE IN MOTION WITH NO WARNING AFTER THE ALARM DISAPPEARS OFF DASH. THIS OCCURRED MULTIPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING IN BUSY INTERSECTIONS. IT ALSO OCCURRED WHEN THE CAR GOT TOWED BACK TO DEALERSHIP.

BOUGHT BRAND NEW. WITH 4700 MILES PUT ON IT, IT HAD LOST OIL AND STALLED SEVERAL TIMES. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING. WE TOOK IT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE WE BOUGHT IT. COME TO FIND OUT, IT BURNS OIL AT AN ACCELERATED RATE. MANY VEHICLES WITH THIS MOTOR, 2.4L MULTIAIR, ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. ENGINES ARE HAVING TO BE REPLACED, WHEN THEY ARE STILL NEW. WHEN RUNNING LOW ON OIL, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUTS DOWN WITH NO WARNING, LIGHTS, INDICATING ITS OUT OF OIL AND THAT COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. IF ON A HIGHWAY OR WHEREVER THERE IS HEAVY TRAFFIC. DEFINITELY SEE A BAD ACCIDENT HAPPENING. A NEW CAR SHOULD NOT BE BURNING OIL AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS.JEEP/FCA SEEM LIKE NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT THIS. I CALLED JEEP RIGHT BEFORE WRITING THIS, AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP HASN'T HEARD ABOUT IT. THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I GOT IT HAS REPLACED 15 OF THESE MOTORS ALREADY. THANKYOU

RADIO WILL RANDOMLY TURN ON WHILE THE CAR IS OFF AND I AM OUTSIDE OF IT (DOORS LOCKED) CAR WILL STRUGGLE TO GO INTO GEAR SOMETIMES, STRONG JERK ONCE IT GOES INTO GEAR. WINDSHIELD WHIPPERS WILL TURN ON ON THEIR OWN (SUNNY DAY) AND WILL NOT TURN OFF.

THIS IS THE THIRD CAR I OWN, MY FIRST TWO CARS WERE HONDA AND NOW I AM CURRENTLY DRIVING A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THIS CAR SINCE AUGUST, ON 2/26/19 AROUND 1:30PM I WAS DRIVING FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES WHEN I STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND MY AUTOMATIC STOP/START TURNED MY CAR OFF, I PRESSED THE BUTTON AND MY CAR STARTED AGAIN NORMALLY. AS THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I MOVED MY FOOT FROM THE BREAK TO THE GAS AND MY CAR DID NOT MOVE. I PRESSED THE AUTO AGAIN AND I STILL DID NOT MOVE, CONTINUED TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND NOTHING WOULD WORK. I HAD TO RESTART MY CAR TWICE BEFORE IT WOULD MOVE. THIS ALL HAPPENED WHILE AT A GREEN LIGHT WITH CARS BEHIND ME. ON 2/27/19 AT 2:45PM I STARTED MY CAR AND WHILE I WAS STILL DRIVING PRESSED THE AUTO STOP/START, I GET ABOUT 200 FEET FURTHER BEFORE MY CAR STARTS SLOWING DOWN ON ITS OWN AND SHUT OFF. I WAITED SOME TIME BEFORE RESTARTING MY CAR. ON 3/1/19 AT 2:30PM I DID NOT HAVE AUTO STOP/START ON, I WAS DRIVING FOR SOME TIME AND MY CAR STARTED TO SLOW DOWN AGAIN SO I PUSHED ON THE GAS TO ACCELERATE, IT WOULD NOT ACCELERATE AND I WAS ABLE TO PULL OVER TO THE SIDE WHEN MY CAR CAME TO A STOP ON ITS OWN AND THE EMERGENCY BREAK LIGHT CAME ON ON ITS OWN. I WAITED SOME TIME AGAIN BEFORE RESTARTING MY CAR. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR AS IT IS DANGEROUS TO JUST STOP ON ITS OWN. ** PLEASE NOTE THE VEHICLE HAS APPROXIMATELY 2965 MILES ON IT AS OF 3/2/19 *

MY TOUCH SCREEN JUST STARTING HAVING LINES THROUGH IT AND IS GETTING WORSE ONLY 22,000 MILES ON MY JEEP
