2 YEARS! FOR OVER 12 YEARS MY AIRBAG LIGHT HAS BEEN ON..... FOR 2 YEARS THIS VEHICLE HAS HAD THIS RECALL FOR THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER. THE POTENTIAL LOSS OF AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER DEPLOYMENT CAPABILITY ... 2 YEARS I I HAVE INQUIRED ABOUT GETTING THIS FIXED, FOR 2 YEARS I AM BEING TOLD THAT THE PARTS ARE NOT AVAILABLE... YET THEY ARE CHURNING OUT NEW JEEPS EVERY SINGLE DAY... WHY CANT THIS BE REPLACED WITH ONE FROM THE NEW JEEPS? THANKFULLY I HAVEN'T HAD AN ACCIDENT, AND NEEDED THIS AIRBAG, BUT WHAT IF I WOULD? WHAT IF I WERE TO HAVE AN ACCIDENT WHERE AN AIRBAG COULD HAVE SAVED MY LIFE? WILL JEEP DO SOMETHING THEN? WHY AREN'T THEY BEING HELD ACCOUNTABLE TO FIX THIS? MILEAGE AND SPEED ENTRIES ARE JUST NUMBER TO FILL THE BLANKS, SINCE I DID NOT HAVE AN ACCIDENT... THE DATE FILLED IN IS THE DATE THE RECALL WAS POSTED.

I SEE AN EXISTING RECALL THAT MATCHES ALL THE ISSUES MY CAR HAS BEEN HAVING AND YET MY CAR IS NOT ON THE RECALL. I WOULD LIKE TO TEST THAT THE RECALL DID NOT INCLUDE ALL THE CARS THAT IT SHOULD HAVE. (NOT THE AIRBAG RECALL) MY CAR HAS STALLED A COUPLE TIMES WHILE DRIVING SLOWLY AND I NOTICE A STRANGE SHIFT ISSUE IN MY CAR. WHEN I BOUGHT MY CAR THEY TOLD ME THAT THE TIMING BELT FELT DIFFERENT THAN THE OTHER CARS I HAD DRIVEN AND THAT IT WAS MORE UP TO DATE. I BELIEVE THAT MY CAR HAD AN ISSUE FROM THE BEGINNING.

WHILE DRIVING, ESPECIALLY WHEN I GO TO SPEED UP, MY JEEP SPUTTERS AND ALMOST FEELS LIKE IT'S GOING TO STALL ON ME. I'VE TAKEN IT INTO THE DEALERSHIP THAT I BOUGHT IT FROM ABOUT 3 DIFFERENT TIMES. EVERY TIME THEY HAVE TOLD ME THEY DON'T FEEL IT AND THEY CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT. I DON'T KNOW WHAT ELSE TO DO.

MY CAR WHICH IS AUTOMATIC , WHILE DRIVING ALL OF SUDDEN I FEEL IT HAS SHIFTED GEAR. LIKE WHILE DRIVING IN NORMAL (D) MODE II FEEL THE GEAR HAS SHIFTED TO NEUTRAL (N) OR AS IF I AM DRIVING STEEP UPHILL AT THE SPEED OF 60 MILES AND ENGINE SLOWS DOWN THE SPEED AND MAKES VERY LOUD NOISE. I HAVE READ ONLINE OVER 100 PEOPLE HAVE POSTED SAME ISSUES. I TOOK THE ISSUE TO JEEP DEALER IN PARAMUS NJ , THEY CHARGED ME $400 TO CHECK AND TOLD ME GO HOME THERE IS NOTHING WRONG. WOW ! ( FYI, I HAVE PUT THE DATE OF 1/1/18 BUT THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING FOR OVER A YEAR AND IT HAPPENS OFTEN ) I JUST DON'T HAVE MONEY TO FIGHT AND GET THIS ISSUE SORTED OUT. THERE IS SOMETHING HORRIBLY WRONG HOW JEEP'S ARE MADE, BRING ME BACK TO THE DAYS WHEN AMERICAN'S CAR HAD BAD REPUTATION AND THE SAME ISSUE IS COMING BACK. PROFITS OVER SAFETY MUST BE THE MOTTO OF CHRYSLER CORP. WHAT A SHAME

CRUISE CONTROL DID NOT DISENGAGE IN A DANGEROUS SITUATION. CRUISE CONTROL WAS ON GOING DOWN I-20 INTERSTATE NEAR SHREVPORT LOUISANA,,, COMING AROUND A CURVE I NOTICED ALL TRAFFIC HAD STOPPED,BOTH LANES DUE TO SOME TYPE CONSTRUCTION AND AS I TRIED TO BRAKE,,,THE CRUISE CONTROL WOULD NOT DISENGAGE WITH MY EMERGENCY BRAKING ,,,I HAD TO GO INTO THE SIDE DITCH AND FINALLY PUT THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL TO STOP ! EXTREMELY DANGEROUS IN WHICH MYSELF AND WIFE COULD HAVE BEEN EASILY KILLED.! LATER,ON CHECKING THE INTERNET TO SEE IF THIS WAS A CONDITION OTHER JEEP COMPASS OWNERS HAD HAD,,,,I FOUND 'RECALLS' ON OTHER JEEP PRODUCTS ' NOTIFYING OTHER JEEP OWNERS OF JEEP CHEROKEE, JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE, AND JEEP WRANGLERS' SPECIFICALLY WITH PROBLEMS OF JEEP CRUISE CONTROLS NOT DISENGAGING' ,,,,BUT NO RECALLS ON JEEP COMPASS',,,, WHICH I HAD JUST HAD THAT SAME EXTREMELY DANGEROUS SITUATION HAPPEN ! ( I WAS GOING HIGHWAY SPEED AT 70 MPH WHEN I HIT MY BRAKES TRYING TO STOP IN AN EMERGENCY SITUATION AND I COULD NOT OVERCOME THE STUCK CRUISE CONTROL TO STOP AND HAD TO TAKE EVASIVE ACTION LEAVING THE HIGHWAY TO THE DITCH AT 70 MPH AND STILL WOULDN'T STOP TILL I PLACED THE AUTO IN NEUTRAL AND ALLOWED ME TO STOP )

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE TRAVELING APPROXIMATELY 70 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ACTIVATED, THE DRIVER ATTEMPTED TO STOP THE VEHICLE BY DEPRESSING THE BRAKE PEDAL; HOWEVER, THE CRUISE CONTROL DID NOT DEACTIVATE. THE DRIVER SHIFTED INTO THE NEUTRAL POSITION TO STOP THE VEHICLE. THE FAILURE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND LOCAL DEALER WERE NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 60,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

WHILE DRIVING MONTHS AGO MY CAR LOST ALL CONTROL OF THROTTLE, ALL CONTROLS SHUT DOWN, AND I BARELY MADE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. GOT THE CAR CHECKED, IT APPEARED TO BE THE THROTTLE BODY SENSOR. HAD THE SENSOR COMPLETELY REPLACED, IT HAS BEEN 4 MONTHS SINCE REPLACEMENT, AND THIS MORNING WHILE DRIVING AROUND A CURVE THE CAR LOST ACCELERATION, ALL CONTROLS SHUT OFF, AND MY STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP, CAUSING ME TO BE STUCK IN THE MIDDLE OF A SHARP CURVE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. I TURNED THE IGNITION TO OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND IT STARTED UP AND DROVE FINE. I ALSO HAVE HAD AN ISSUE WHEN ACCELERATING WHERE IT HAS A HARD TIME CHANGING GEARS, AND IT GIVES A SLIGHT JERKING IN THE THROTTLE WHERE IT WON'T CHANGE. THIS MORNING AFTER MY INCIDENT THE CAR HAS STARTED VIBRATING WHILE IN DRIVE AND IDLES AT 1000 RPM. WHEN I PUT THE CAR IN NEUTRAL THE VIBRATION STOPS, BUT IMMEDIATELY STARTS BACK ONCE I REMOVE IT OUT OF NEUTRAL.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY STALLED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT TAKEN TO A DEALER FOR DIAGNOSTIC TESTING OR REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.

TAKATA RECALL - 12.21.17, TOOK MY VEHICLE TO NISSANI BROS JEEP, DODGE, CHRYSLER AT 5750 MESMER AVE B, CULVER CITY, CA 90230 WHERE I ORDERED THE RECALL PARTS. THEY PROCESSED MY RECALL AND I PICKED UP MY CAR A WEEK LATER. I RECEIVED A NOTICE THAT THERE WAS STILL AN OPEN RECALL ON MY CAR, AND I THOUGHT THAT THAT MAY BE A DELAY. I JUST RECEIVED ANOTHER RECALL NOTICE, AND CALLED THEM TO CLARIFY THAT THEY HAD IN FACT FIXED THE RECALL, ONLY TO FIND OUT THAT THEY HAD NOT. I SPOKE WITH A TECHNICIAN WHO SAID THAT THEIR RECORDS AT FIRST INDICATED THAT IT HAD BEEN COMPLETED, BUT UPON FURTHER INSPECTION, THE RECALL HAD NOT BEEN COMPLETED AND I HAVE SINCE DRIVEN OVER 1K MILES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2014 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE PARKING, THE VEHICLE WAS SHIFTED INTO REVERSE; HOWEVER, INSTEAD OF TRAVELING BACKWARDS, THE VEHICLE WENT FORWARD. AS A RESULT, THE CONTACT'S VEHICLE STRUCK A PARKED VEHICLE. THERE WERE NO INJURIES AND A POLICE REPORT WAS NOT FILED. THE VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC WHERE IT WAS AWAITING DIAGNOSTIC TESTING AND REPAIRS. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE OF THE FAILURE. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 46,000. THE VIN WAS NOT PROVIDED. *TT CONTACT STATES THIS IS THE SECOND OCCURENCE. *TT

THIS WEEK THE ACTIVE HEAD REST DEPLOYED OVERNIGHT WHILE PARKED IN THE DRIVE ON MY 2014 JEEP COMPASS. AFTER INSPECTING IT I NOTICED THAT THE PLASTIC TABS THAT HOLD THE HEADREST IN PLACE WERE BROKEN. THERE IS ONLY 47000 MILES MEANING IT IS NO LONGER UNDER WARRANTY AND THE REPAIR IS VERY COSTLY. I KNOW THIS IS A COMMON AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM WITH MANY JEEP VEHICLES AND THIS REALLY NEEDS TO BE ADDRESSED AND WHY IT HASN'T ALREADY IS BEYOND ME.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE INTERSTATE ALL OF A SUDDEN LOST COMPLETE POWER. LIGHTENING BOLT SYMBOL TURNED ON AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE. EVENTUALLY REGAINED POWER, BUT CAR CONTINUED TO STUDDER GOING DOWN THE ROAD. AND THEN IT HAPPENED AGAIN. VERY DANGEROUS. DIAGNOSES: THROTTLE BODY FAULTY. 92,000 MILES. NOT COVERED UNDER POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. WITH ALL THE COMPLAINTS I'VE READ THIS SEEMS TO BE A KNOWN ISSUE AND NOW $700 PLUS DOWN DRAIN.

MY JEEP CONSTANTLY STALLS WHEN DRIVING IT. I CAN BE AT A STOP LIGHT AND BEGIN TO ACCELERATE ONCE IT TURNS GREEN AS SOON AS I START MOVING IT STALLS. IF I'M ON THE HIGHWAY AND TRY TO SPEED UP TO PASS SOMEONE IT STALLS. I HAVE HAD SO MANY ISSUES WITH THIS JEEP AFTER PURCHASING IT WITH 9,000+ MILES ON IT IN 2015. I WAS DRIVING IT ON THE NJ TURNPIKE WHEN IT COMPLETELY STOPPED ACCELERATING. MY YOUNGEST DAUGHTER WAS IN THE CAR AND IT FRIGHTENED BOTH OF US AS ON COMING CARS WERE DODGING US. I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALER AND WAS TOLD IT WAS A FUSE. THE FUSE BLEW AGAIN WHILE DRIVING ON THE SAME HIGHWAY. I'VE HAD TO REPLACE THE TIE RODS, THE BRAKES THE ROTORS ALL FOUR TIRES FUSES ALTERNATOR AND NOW A BRAKE SWITCH. THE JEEP STALLS WHILE DRIVING AND I HAVE TO LOOK AT THE DASHBOARD TO MAKE SURE IT'S STILL ACCELERATING SO THAT I DON'T HAVE A SCARE LIKE I DID THE TIMES WHEN THE FUSES BLEW. I'VE WRITTEN SEVERAL LETTERS TO THE CORPORATE OFFICE IN REGARDS TO HAVING SO MANY ISSUES AND BASICALLY I WAS TOLD THAT I DRIVE THE JEEP TOO MUCH. FIRST OF ALL I THOUGHT PEOPLE BOUGHT VEHICLES TO DRIVE THEM. IN ANY EVENT I WAS TOLD TO READ THE CONSUMER REPORT ON THIS VEHICLE AND REALIZED THE STALLING MAY NOT BE FROM THE FUSES AND WHATEVER MAKES THEM BLOW OUT. WHEN ASKED ABOUT THE FUSES IN THE BEGINNING ONE OF THE MAINTENANCE PERSONNEL SAID TO ME A CAR IS A MACHINE AND SOMETIMES MACHINES DON'T OPERATE THE WAY THEY SHOULD. I PRETTY MUCH GAVE UP ON THAT PLACE AND JEEP AS A WHOLE. I PURCHASED A LEMON AND CHRYSL

2014 JEEP COMPASS SPUTTERS AND JERKS, DIFFICULTY ACCELERATING, THE ENGINE LIGHT RANDOMLY CAME ON ALONG WITH THE ELECTRONIC THROTTLE LIGHT. UNABLE TO ACCELERATE ABOVE 45 OR 50 MPH..ONLY GAIN SPEED WHEN GOING DOWNHILL!

"JEEP COMPASS RECALL". GOOD AFTERNOON, I WAS UNAWARE THAT MY JEEP IS UNDER A RECALL. I HAVEN'T RECEIVED ANYTHING IN THE MAIL REGARDING THE RECALL. MY ADDRESS HASN'T CHANGED AND I HAVEN'T HEARD ANYTHING IN WRITING ABOUT MY JEEP'S RECALL. I WOULD AT LEAST LIKE A LETTER EXPLAINING MY RECALL SO I CAN GET THIS TAKEN CARE OF AS SOON AS POSSIBLE.

APRIL 15, 2018 VEHICLE ONLY HAS 58K MILES ON IT AND IS STILL UNDER POWERTRAIN WARRANTY. PULLED OUT ONTO HIGHWAY IN BUSY TRAFFIC AND VEHICLE SHUDDERED AND LOST POWER. I WAS UNABLE TO ACCELERATE OVER 20MPH. ONCOMING CAR NARROWLY MISSED HITTING ME. LIGHTNING BOLT, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, AND ABS WARNING LIGHTS ALL FLASHED ON DRIVERS PANEL. BROUGHT CAR TO DEALER TO BE INSPECTED AND DIAGNOSIS CODES ARE THAT I NEED A NEW THROTTLE BODY CONVERTER. VEHICLE DOESN'T EVEN HAVE 60K MILES ON IT AND THE ENGINE IS STILL UNDER WARRANTY, HOWEVER, DEALER SAYS WARRANTY DOES NOT COVER THROTTLE BODY. :/ VERY DANGEROUS PROBLEM THAT I'VE DISCOVERED A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE ARE HAVING PROBLEMS WITH. :/ LOOKS LIKE JEEP MADE A FAULTY PART THAT CAN RESULT IN A SERIOUS ACCIDENT IF SOMEONE LOSES POWER AT THE WRONG TIME.

THE THROTTLE BODY CONTROL WOULD NOT ALLOW MY JEEP TO MERGE ON THE HIGHWAY. I WAS MERGING ON TO THE HIGHWAY AND AS SOON AS THE IT GOT UP TO 2500 RPM IT WOULD NOT SHIFT. I HAD TO LET OFF OF THE GAS AND PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD BECAUSE IT STARTED REVING ALL OF THE WAY UP TO 7000 RPM IN ORDER TO SHIFT. THE LIGHTING BOLT SYMBOL CAME ON DURING ALL OF THIS AND STAYED ON. I TRIED THEN TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY AND IT DID IT ONCE AGAIN, BUT THIS TIME IT STALLED COMPLETELY. THE JEEP WOULD GO AS LONG AS I DIDN'T GO PAST 2500 RPM. AS SOON AS I GOT SAFELY OFF THE HIGHWAY I TOOK IT TO A MECHANIC ON THE SAME STREET. I HAD TO REPLACE THE THROTTLE BODY UNIT AND IT ENDED UP COSTING AROUND 530 USD. NOW I AM HAVING THE EXACT SAME SYMPTOMS BEFORE THE LAST TIME THE UNIT BROKE.

WHILE GETTING OFF OF PM SHIFT, AROUND 2330, I WAS DRIVING AND ALL OF A SUDDEN MY CAR BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN ONLY 3 MILES INTO DRIVING. I COULD NOT ACCELERATE MORE THAN 15 MILES AN HOUR IN A 40MPH ZONE. THE LIGHTNING BOLT FOR ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL WAS FLASHING, THEN STOPPED, THEN MY CHECK ENGINE AND MY ANTI SKID(?) WAS LIT UP. I PULLED OVER TO A SIDE STREET, PUT IN PARK ONLY TO HAVE MY ENGINE IDLE AT 2K RPM. THANK GOODNESS I HAD MY PHONE AND A FRIEND WITH SOME CAR KNOWLEDGE. TOLD ME TO LEAVE IN PARK AND RESTART MY CAR. TURNED ON AND ONCE I SHIFTED OUT OF PARK IT HAPPENED AGAIN. HE STAYED ON THE PHONE WITH ME FOR THE REST OF MY DRIVE HOME THAT TOOK ME 45MIN BECAUSE OF NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE ANY FASTER THAN 15. A DRIVE THAT USUALLY WOULD TAKE ME 15 MINUTES TOOK MUCH LONGER. GLAD MY KIDS WEREN'T IN THE CAR BECAUSE I ALMOST GOT HIT 2X BY 18 WHEELERS COMING OFF OF THE HIGHWAY. NOT TO MENTION IT WAS ONLY 27 DEGREES OUT (WITHOUT THE CHICAGO WIND CHILL)AND WOULD HAVE HAD TO WAIT PROBABLY 30+ MINUTES FOR A TOW OR RIDE TO PICK ME UP HAD IT NOT RESTARTED. BEYOND LIVID THAT THERE ARE NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS ABOUT THE SAME THING AND NOTHING BEING DONE. GOING TO HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR THIS FIX, RIGHT BEFORE CHRISTMAS, AWESOME!

THE HEAT SHIELD THAT PROTECTS AND SEPARATES THE GAS TANK FROM MUFFLER PREVENTING THE HEAT FROM THE MUFFLER TO OVERHEAT THE GAS TANK HAS FALLEN FROM THE BRACKETS THAT HOLDS THIS SAFETY / HEAT SHIELD IN PLACE. THIS HEAT SHIELD IS EXTREMELY IMPORTANT PREVENTING ANY HEAT TO DAMAGE THE GAS TANK DIRECTLY ABOVE. THE BRACKETS THAT HELD UP THE HEAT SHIELD APPEARED TO BE OF VERY POOR QUALITY AND WOULD TEND TO FAIL FROM MY OBSERVATION. WITHOUT THIS HEAT SHIELD IT APPEARS A GAS TANK FIRE COULD OCCUR IN HOT ENVIRONMENTS OR POSSIBLY AT IDLE WITHOUT ANY AIR MOVEMENT TO COOL THE SPACE BETWEEN THE GAS TANK AND MUFFLER.

WAS NEVER NOTIFIED OF THE BELOW RECALL DESPITE HAVING VEHICLE AT DEALER FOR OTHER ISSUES: THE VEHICLES MAY EXPERIENCE LOSS OF AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER DEPLOYMENT CAPABILITY IN CERTAIN CRASH EVENTS DUE TO A SHORTING CONDITION RESULTING IN A NEGATIVE VOLTAGE TRANSIENT THAT TRAVELS TO THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER VIA THE FRONT IMPACT SENSOR WIRES. RECALL STATUS RECALL INCOMPLETE REMEDY THE OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER MUST BE REPLACED. SAFETY RISK DESCRPITION THE POTENTIAL LOSS OF AIR BAG AND SEAT BELT PRETENSIONER DEPLOYMENT CAPABILITY IN SUCH CRASH EVENTS MAY INCREASE THE RISK OF INJURY IN A CRASH.

THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WHILE GOING 70 MILES AN HOUR, NO WARNING AT ALL. AS SOON AS IT WAS SWITCHED OFF IT RE-STARTED??? NO CODES APPEARING AND NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT.

REAR OBLIQUE SIDE IMPACT BEHIND DRIVER SIDE FRONT WHEEL DID NOT TRIGGER SIDE AIRBAG, ALREADY FIXED FROM PREVIOUS RECALL. BOTH VEHICLES IN MOTION, JEEP WAS THE VEHICLE STRUCK WHEN PICKUP TRUCK DRIVER FAILED TO YEILD RIGHT OF WAY AT THE STOP SIGN. . RESULTED IN A BROKEN NECK TO THE 87 YEAR OLD JEEP DRIVER. TEXAS FORM CR3 REPORT (WHICH PHOTOS SEEM TO SOMEWHAT REFUTE) ATTACHED. BOTH VEHICLES TOTALED. PICKUP TRUCK LOST RIGHT FRONT WHEEL ON IMPACT. IT ENDED UP WEDGED BETWEEN THE VEHICLES.UPDATED 11/08/17 *BF UPDATED 8/21/18*JB

MY OIL PRESSURE AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT KEPT TURNING OFF AND ON. I CONTACTED THE JEEP DEALERSHIP IN REGARDS TO THE ISSUE, AND THEY ADVISED ME IT WAS NOT DANGEROUS. THE PROBLEM CONTINUED SO I ATTEMPTED TO TRANSPORT MY VEHICLE TO MY MECHANIC, AND AS I WAS TRANSPORTING THE VEHICLE I HEARD A LOUD "POP!" FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THE CAR BEGAN TO DECELERATE CAUSING ME TO HAVE TO PULL SAFELY TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD FROM THREE LANES OVER. THE DASH BOARD PROCEEDED TO LIGHT UP AND A STRANGE SMELL BEGAN TO COME THROUGH THE VEHICLE. MY ASSOCIATE AND I GOT OUT OF THE VEHICLE TO CHECK UNDER THE HOOD AND FOUND THAT THE VEHICLE WAS ON FIRE. WE QUICKLY GRABBED OUR BELONGS AND MOVED A SAFE DISTANCE AWAY FROM THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS ENGULFED IN FLAMES WITHIN 15 MINUTES AND REMAINED ON FIRE UNTIL THE FIRE DEPARTMENT ARRIVED TO EXTINGUISH IT.
