Vehicle stopped acceleration at highway speeds on way to work in narrow highway stopping traffic and semitrucks narrowly missing collision. Dealership states the transmission cvt was leaking and therefore caused the issue that costly repairs are unaffordable for me. Bought used from private party a month before the incident now leaving me no funds to repair and no transportation to return to work.

The contact owns a 2007 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that while driving at 65 MPH the vehicle stop accelerating. The vehicle lost motive power. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehilce local dealer where it was due to the transmission fluid. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was contacted and a opened case. The failure mileage was unknown.

Upon driving on the highway the engine begins to make a hissing sound . Then the the car begins to feel like its slowly braking. From there It slowly loses power . The accelerator does nothing. This happened when my son I his [XXX] was drive me to airport through [XXX] mountains. Had to pull over many times eventually getting and Uber from gas station to make flight. Very unsafe condition and is need of repairs INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Dashboard had check engine light on. transaxle indicator light turned on when i was driving about 65 mph on the freeway and slowed down and wouldn’t accelerate. The large commercial truck behind me was unable to stop on time that it almost hit us behind. There was a construction on my right lane and cars on my left lane. it took me some seconds to reach the end of construction site in my right lane. A second or two more not changing lane to my right side would have hit me and my children. All the truck driver was able to do was pressed on the horn to make me aware that he is too close behind me. Changed of speed in a freeway that fast could have killed me and my kids. i have not been able to drive in the Freeway with this car and even if i get it fixed, I still won’t feel safe to drive it. The car runs fine when the transaxle light doesn’t come on. certain movement, light turns on and off.

The vehicle has a problem that it will stall out after filling up with gas. The timing of the stall out is such that within a minute or two of leaving the gas station and pulling into traffic, the vehicle will buck and the motor will shut off. when this happens, the vehicle also loses power steering and brakes. This creates an INCREDIBLY dangerous situation as the driver essentially has no control any longer. It is a consistent, repeatable problem that occurs every time the vehicle is filled with gas.

Handbrake won’t lock brakes grinding bad problems Coming To Complete stop emergency brake Won’t go Off

The frame Infront where the motor and steering attach rotted completely threw, separated at the weld. It is a safety hazard where steering is affected. The dash lights for the traction, abs, and even the cruise control are on and those items are no longer functional. This car was purchased in 2017, Holiday automotive in Fondulac, Wi with this condition apparent. The mechanic who changed my oil reported it to me in the spring of 2018. And as of this spring the car is undrivable as it is broken. If this were to break while someone were driving it, an accident would happen.

Every time I fill up my gas tank the car will stall and shut down in the middle of the road. This is extremely dangerous as I need to put my car in park to restart it.

Less then 150000 miles on vehicle Transmission has been inspected n fluid checked on several occasions fluid is never low

While driving about 40mph the car violently changed lanes with no warning. Luckily no cars were near and i was able to bring the car back under control. I have experienced loose steering before but never to this extreme. I am scared to drive car fearing for safety of myself and passengers. I have read up about these cars and all the problems they have of which I have experienced quite a few myself. I was told the car needed extensive repair to the front end and that there was extensive corrosion to many parts on the under carriage.

2007 JEEP COMPASS EXPERIENCED SUBFRAME RUST/ROT WITH TOTAL FAILURE AT 76,XXX MILES WHILE BEING OPERATED STRAIGHT ON A STATE HIGHWAY.

IN MY FAMILY WE OWN A 2007 JEEP COMPASS WHICH WE ARE PLEASED TO OWN. HOWEVER, LAST YEAR (2018) WE FOUND THAT IT WAS SPITTING GASOLINE OUTSIDE OF THE CAR AFTER WE FINISHED PUMPING IT. IT LOOKED LIKE THE CAR WAS PUMPING THE GAS BACK TO US WITHOUT WE EVEN TURNING THE CAR ON. AT THE BEGINNING I COULD NOT PUMP ENOUGH GASOLINE INTO THE FUEL TANK. IT STOPPED UNEXPECTEDLY AND SPIT THE FUEL OUT, WITH ENOUGH FORCE AND QUANTITY TO FILL THE CAP COMPARTMENT AND NOTABLY REACHING THE FLOOR. WE TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THREE FOR THE SAME ISSUE AND THEY CHANGED A COUPLE OF PARTS AND PARTIALLY SOLVED THE PROBLEM IN FEBRUARY 2019. PARTIALLY BECAUSE WHEN WE FILLED THE TANK FULL, IT CAUSED THE ENGINE TO TURN OFF WITHIN 5 MINUTES OF FUELING. HOWEVER, IN JUNE 2019, WE FOUND THAT THE CAR WAS AGAIN SPITTING GAS OUT WHEN WE FILL THE TANK TO FULL. AGAIN, WITH ENOUGH FORCE AND QUANTITY TO FILL THE CAP COMPARTMENT AND NOTABLY REACHING THE FLOOR. THEREFORE, WE DECIDED TO MAKE THIS SAFETY COMPLAIN BECAUSE NOT ONLY MY FAMILY IS IN HIGH DANGER BUT ALSO EVERY PERSON AT A GAS STATION WHERE WE FILL WITH GASOLINE. MOREOVER, IT IS CONCERNING THAT A CAR DEVELOPS THIS TYPE OF PROBLEM BY ITSELF AND JEEP DOES NOT SEEM TO HAVE A DEFINED SOLUTION FOR THIS MATTER.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMPASS. AFTER THE FUEL TANK WAS FILLED, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE FAILURE WAS EXPERIENCED EACH TIME THE FUEL TANK WAS FILLED.

FRONT SUB FRAME IS ROTTED RIGHT THROUGH, APPARENTLY A COMMON PROBLEM ON THESE VEHICLES

INSPECTION AFTER CLUNKING FROM THE FRONT OF THE VEHICLE REVEALED SEVERE ROT AND CORROSION OF THE SUBFRAME WITH THE MOUNTING FOR THE ANTI-ROLL BAR COMPLETED BROKEN AWAY FROM THE SUBFRAME. ALSO SEVERE CORROSION AROUND THE LOWER CONTROL ARM MOUNTING APPEARED TO BE CLOSE TO THE FAILURE POINT. TOOK THE VEHICLE TO THE JEEP DEALER WHO STATED THAT THE 10 YEAR EXTENDED WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED AND THAT I SHOULD NOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE DUE TO SAFETY CONCERNS. FOUND FCA INTERNAL WARRANTY DOCUMENT ID-14-02 FOR THE SUBFRAME CORROSION ISSUE DATED 5/19/14 WHICH REFERS TO FCA SERVICE BULLETIN 23-012-14 AND STATES THAT ALL DEALER PERSONNEL ARE TO BE MADE AWARE OF THIS BULLETIN. I HAVE A RECEIPT FOR OTHER REPAIRS FROM AN FCA DEALER DATED 7/28/14, 2 MONTHS AFTER THE WARRANTY BULLETIN DATE AND THERE WAS NO NOTIFICATION GIVEN ABOUT THE INSPECTION MANDATED UNDER THE WARRANTY AND NOTHING NOTED ON THE RECEIPT. THUS THERE WAS NO WAY FOR ME TO KNOW ABOUT THIS WARANTY AND SAFETY ISSUE WHICH I AM NOW TOLD HAS EXPIRED FOR MY VEHICLE. PER DEALER INSTRUCTION, I CALLED FCA CUSTOMER CARE AND WAS ALSO TOLD THE WARRANTY FOR MY VEHICLE HAD EXPIRED AND MY ONLY CHOICE WAS TO PAY FOR REPAIRS MYSELF. IN SCROLLING THROUGH THE COMPLAINTS ALREADY NOTED IN THE NHTSA SITE, I SEE NUMEROUS MENTIONS OF THIS PROBLEM WITH MANY INDICATING COMPLETE SUBFRAME AND SUSPENSION FAILURE WITH INJURY ONLY BEING PREVENTED BY THE SLOW OPERATING SPEED AT THE TIME OF THE FAILURE. THIS PROBLEM IS A MANUFACTURING DEFECT WHERE IMPROPER MATERIALS AN

WHILE DRIVING THE CAR IT STARTED PULLING TO THE LEFT AND STEERING WHEEL WAS SHAKING. THERE WAS ALSO A POUND SQUEALING NOISE. PULLED VEHICLE TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND NOTICED THE DRIVER SIDE FRON TIRE WAS LEANING INWARDS. LOOKED UNDER THE VEHICLE AND NOTICED THE SUB FRAME HAD RUSTED THROUGH AND BROKE.

AFTER FILLING UP MY 07 JEEP COMPASS NOT EVEN AS I WAS PULLING OUT OF THE PARKING LOT THE JEEP STARTED STUTTERING AND SHUT OFF .. IT HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES UNTIL I GOT HOME. WHILE ACCELERATING IT WOULD ACT LIKE IT WANTED TO STALL . AND WHILE COMING TO A SHOP IT WOULD CUT OFF. I WAS ALMOST HIT BECAUSE OF THIS . AND I HAD MY DISABLED DAUGHTER IN THE CAR.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON PAID $800 DOLLARS TO RESOLVE ISSUES, I AM STILL HAVING PROBLEMS WITH CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. A FEW SENSORS(OIL, HEATING ETC) WERE REPLACED, O2 SENSORS WERE REPLACED. I WAS TOLD THAT IT COULD BE THE VEHICLE'S COMPUTER SYSTEM. THIS IS CREATING A VERY SERIOUS HEADACHE PROBLEM. I TRIED WITH NUMEROUS CAR REPAIR SHOPS AND THEY DON'T SEEM TO PINPOINT THE PROBLEM. THEY CHECK THE CODES AND THEIR RESPONSE IS "IT APPEARS THAT THIS IS WHATS WRONG WITH IT, BUT THERE IS NO WARRANTY, THAT WE CAN RESOLVE THE ISSUES. ISSUES ARE HAPPENING WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION

2 WEEKS AGO PURCHASED A 2007 JEEP COMPASS. SOME RATTLING UNDER NEATH WHEN DRIVING SO TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC. THEY HAD IT HOISTED UP AND FOUND A MINOR ISSUE. BUT THE MECHANIC POINTED OUT THE FRONT CROSSMEMBER/SUBFRAME WAS RUSTED OUT. HE SAID IT NEEDS TO BE REPLACED BECAUSE IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE. LOOKED ONLINE AND THIS IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH JEEP COMPASS AND PATRIOTS FROM 2007 AND ON. I WAS QUOTED $1600 FOR REPLACEMENT. I CALLED CHRYSLER/JEEP HEADQUARTERS AND SAID THEY WERE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND HAD AN EXTENDED WARRANTY BUT MY VEHICLE IS NOT COVERED!!!!! I TOLD THEM IT SHOULD BE COVERED NO MATTER WHAT BECAUSE THEY USED CHEAP AND WEAK STEEL WHICH CORRODES FASTER IN NORTHERN CLIMATES DUE TO SALT USE ON ROADS AND IT IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE!. THE ENGINE COULD FALL OUT, THE SUSPENSION COULD GIVE OUT WHILE DRIVING AND CAUSE AN ACCIDENT. THEY KEPT REPEATING "PAST EXTENDED WARRANTY". MY 1997 JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE JUST DIED 2 WEEKS AGO AND I NEVER HAD FRAME ISSUES WITH IT. I LOVED MY GRAND CHEROKEE, IT WAS WELL BUILT AND LASTED FOR 21 YEARS! I AM SO DISAPPOINTED WITH CHRYSLER JEEP RIGHT NOW. THEY WENT FROM BUILDING QUALITY PRODUCTS TO CHEAP AND EXPENSIVE. THEY KEPT REPEATING "PAST WARRANTY"

I PURCHASED VEHICLE IN FEB 2018 FOR MY THEN 16 YEAR OLD DAUGHTER. LAST COUPLE OF REFUELS, VEHICLE WILL STALL OUT AFTER LEAVING GAS STATION. SHE LOOSES POWER, STEERING & BRAKING ABILITY WHEN THIS OCCURS. VEHICLE WILL START BACK UP DRIVE ALONG A WHILE THEN STALL OUT AGAIN. THIS HAPPENS SEVERAL TIMES THEN WILL OPERATE NORMALLY TILL NEXT FILL-UP.

AFTER FILLING THE TANK WITH GAS, THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF AFTER ABOUT 1/8 OF A MILE. IT WILL JUST STALL OUT AND LOSE STEERING AND LIGHTS.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE REAR SUBFRAME ASSEMBLY WAS RUSTED, WHICH CAUSED THE REAR WHEELS TO BEND. THE CONTACT CALLED PROGRESSIVE CHEVROLET AT 330-879-3697 (LOCATED AT 8000 HILLS AND DALES RD NW, MASSILLON, OH 44646) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO WARRANTY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND STATED THAT NOTHING COULD BE DONE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 98,000.

CAR STALLS AFTER FILLING UP GAS TANK...APPARENTLY THIS IS A KNOWN ISSUE AND IS HAPPENING TO MY DAUGHTERS CAR AND SHE WAS ALMOST IN A BAD ACCIDENT DUE TO THE CAR STALLING WHEN PULLING OUT OF A WAWA GAS STATION. THERE IS APPARENTLY A NEED TO REPLACE THE FUEL TANK DUE TO A VAPOR LOCK ISSUE WHICH CHRYSLER IS AWARE OF AND IS HAPPENING IN MORE THEN ONE TYPE OF THEIR VEHICLES... THIS IS A DANGEROUS ISSUE THAT IF NOT RECALLED AND THE COMPANY IS HELD ACCOUNTABLE WILL LEAD TO DEATH.
