2017 Jeep Compass complaints

TL* THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER OWNS A 2017 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE SEIZED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THE DRIVER WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE WITHIN FIVE MINUTES. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CENTRAL JEEP CHRYSLER DODGE RAM OF RAYNHAM (LOCATED AT 191 US-44, RAYNHAM, MA 02767, (508) 823-0101) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT IT NEEDED A PASS AND OIL CHANGE. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED, BUT THE FAILURE RECURRED ON SEPTEMBER 25, 2019. THE DRIVER STATED THAT A WARNING MESSAGE APPEARED, INDICATING TO RESTART THE VEHICLE; HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE WAS UNABLE TO TURN OFF. WHILE DEPRESSING THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO ACCELERATE AND WAS UNABLE TO SHIFT INTO ANY GEAR. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER. THE CONTACT ATTEMPTED TO CONTACT THE MANUFACTURER, BUT WAS UNSUCCESSFUL. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000. THE VIN WAS NOT AVAILABLE.

TAKATA RECALL , IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING ALL MY WARNING LIGHTS ON MY DASH WENT OFF AND THE CAR CUT MY FUEL SERVICE OFF, LEAVING ME UNABLE TO ACCELERATE, I PULLED OVER IN A PARKING AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP, I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND COULDN'T START IT BACK UP AS THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS LOCKED ALSO. I HAVE HAD THIS PROBLEM NUMEROUS TIMES AND VISITED THE DEALERSHIP PLENTY TIMES AND THEY AREN'T ABLE TO DIAGNOSE A REAL PROBLEM , IT'S A RECURRING PROBLEM. A NEW COMPUTER WAS PUT IN IT ALSO AND I STILL HAVE PROBLEMS.

TL* THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING A 2017 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE VEHICLE JERKED, LUNGED, AND LOST POWER. ALSO, THE VEHICLE ACCELERATED WHILE THE BRAKE PEDAL WAS DEPRESSED. FURTHERMORE, THE OVERHEAT WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED FOR APPROXIMATELY THIRTY SECONDS AND THEN TURNED OFF. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MANHATTAN JEEP (629 W 54TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10019, (877) 225-8709) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE FAILURES COULD NOT BE DUPLICATED. THE FAILURES RECURRED MULTIPLE TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN BACK TO THE DEALER FOR A SECOND DIAGNOSTIC TEST, WHICH FAILED TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURES AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 89,000.

2017 JEEP COMPASS LIMITED HAS EXPERIENCED 5 EPISODES OF STALLING AFTER COMING TO A STOP. VEHICLE IS EQUIPPED WITH THE AUTO STOP/START FEATURE AND EACH TIME THE AUTO STOP/START TURNS BACK ON, JUST AS THE VEHICLE BEGINS TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE STALLS OUT AND SHUTS OFF. THE VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO BE IMMEDIATELY TURNED BACK ON AND MOVED TO SAFETY. THIS HAS OCCURRED 5 TIMES ON BUSY ROADS CAUSING A LIFE SAFETY HAZARD. ON THE 4TH TIME THIS OCCURRED A MECHANIC STATED IT WAS DUE TO LOW OIL. AN OIL CHANGE WAS CONDUCTED AND A WEEK LATER THE 5TH STALLING EPISODE OCCURRED, THIS TIME IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY STATE ROAD INTERSECTION DURING RUSH HOUR. FORTUNATELY ANY INJURY/ACCIDENT HAS BEEN AVOIDED, HOWEVER THESE INCIDENTS COULD EASILY LEAD TO SEVERE INJURY OR EVEN DEATH. A QUICK INTERNET SEARCH SHOWS EXTENSIVE SIMILAR REPORTS ABOUT THIS PARTICULAR VEHICLE.

WHEN MAKING LEFT OR RIGHT TURNS, IT GOES INTO 4WD. DOESN'T MATTER IF YOU'RE ON THE ROADWAY OR TURNING INTO A PARKING SPOT OR EVEN BACKING UP. FEELS LIKE SOMETHING GRABBING IN EITHER THE FRONT OR BACK CAN'T REALLY TELL. MAKES GRINDING NOISE. TOOK BACK TO THE DEALER TWICE NOW AND THEY ALSO SAY IT WAS THE 4WD THAT THEY CAN'T FIX ANYTHING BECAUSE JEEP KNOWS ABOUT THE PROBLEM AND WE HAVE TO WAIT FOR JEEP TO DO A RECALL. IT GETS WORSE EVERY DAY. THEY SAY THEY CAN NOT GIVE US A PAPER BECAUSE OF WAITING ON THE RECALL. ONLY HAD THIS CAR FOR 3 MONTHS AND NOBODY WANTS TO FIX THE PROBLEM.

TAKATA RECALL, BOUGHT THE CAR IN APRIL 2018 AND AFTER 2 MONTHS I STARTED EXPERIENCING A STRANGE KICK COMING FROM THE ENGINE WHILE DRIVING, I TOOK IT NUMEROUS TIMES TO THE JEEP DEALERSHIP AND COULD NEVER FIND THE PROBLEM UNTIL 7 MONTHS LATER WHEN IT STATTED TO DO IT KORE OFTEN. AFTER SOME RESEARCH AND TALKING TO OTHER JEEP OWNERS WITH THE SAME CAR I FOUND OUT IT WAS A MANUFACTURER DEFECT. UNFORTUNATELY, BY THE TIME THE DEALERSHIP REALIZED IT WAS A DEFECT, MY WARRANTY HAD EXPIRED. 2 DAYS AGO, MY CAR COMPLETELY WENT OUT AND DIDN'T TURN ON, I HAD TO TOW IT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND NOW I AM BEING CHARGED OVER TWO-THOUSAND DOLLARS TO GET AN ELECTRICAL PROBLEM FIXED. ON TOO OF MAKING MY MONTHLY PAYMENTS, I HAVE TO PAY OUT OF POCKET FOR A LEMON VEHICLE I PURCHASED.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE TRANSMISSION SLIPPED OUT OF GEAR AND THE VEHICLE ALMOST CRASHED INTO A FIRE HYDRANT. CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM FIAT MANHATTAN (678 11TH AVE, NEW YORK, NY 10019, (212) 549-2208) STATED THAT THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE FAILURE AND CONDUCTED A SAFETY INSPECTION. THE VEHICLE PASSED THE INSPECTION. THE MANUFACTURER WAS CONTACTED AND STATED THAT A CASE MANAGER WOULD REVIEW THE MATTER. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,500.

4 SEPARATE TIME IN LESS THAN 2 WEEKS MY CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED WHILE I WAS DRIVING. 2 TIMES WHILE DRIVING TO MY JOB IN CITY STREETS . AND 2 TIMES DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS

CAR SHAKES AT HIGH RATE OF SPEED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS AN INTERNAL ELECTRICAL FAILURE AND THE VEHICLE STALLED SEVERAL TIMES. IN ADDITION, THERE WAS A LOSS OF ENGINE POWER AND THE GEAR INDEPENDENTLY SHIFTED INTO NEUTRAL WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN OPERATION. THE CONTACT STATED THAT VARIOUS UNKNOWN WARNING INDICATORS FLICKERED AND FLASHED DURING THE FAILURE. ANTWERPEN CHRYSLER JEEP (6440 BALTIMORE NATIONAL PIKE, BALTIMORE, MD 21228, (410) 788-2973) WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE BATTERY WAS REPLACED. AN INDEPENDENT MECHANIC DIAGNOSED THAT THE FAILURE WAS RELATED TO NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V301000 (POWER TRAIN); HOWEVER, THE DEALER AND MANUFACTURER INDICATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE RECALL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 6,000.

EVERY 25-30 ENGINE STARTS THE CLIMATE CONTROL SYSTEM RESETS ITSELF AND ALTHOUGH THE VEHICLE SAYS THE AIR IS ON IT BLOWS HOT AIR FOR APPROXIMATELY 30 MINUTES OR UNTIL YOU REACH A MINIMUM SPEED OF 60 MPH BEFORE THE VEHICLE KICKS OVER TO AIR. WHILE THE HEAT BLOWS (WITH AC BUTTON LIT UP) OTHER CLIMATE CONTROLS CANNOT BE USED SUCH AS DEFROST. IN ADDITION TO THIS ISSUE, OTHER ELECTRICAL ISSUES HAVE BEEN RECOGNIZED SUCH AS THE DASH SCREEN SHUTTING DOWN OR RESTARTING WHILE DRIVING AND BACK UP CAM GOING BLACK OR FREEZING. SPOKE WITH JEEP CUSTOMER SERVICE TODAY WHO SAYS THE CLIMATE CONTROL MALFUNCTION IS A KNOWN ISSUE TO THEM BUT THERE IS NO FIX AT THIS TIME.

ON 6.22.2019 I PURCHASED A JEEP COMPASS CERTIFIED. I HAD THE JEEP FOR 10 DAYS BEFORE THE JEEP WILL NO LONGER START. THE JEEP HAD TO BE TOWED TO THE NEAREST JEEP DEALERSHIP. THE DIAGNOSIS IS THAT THE JEEP'S TIMPER IS NO LONGER WORKING. THIS IS A PRE-EXISTING ISSUE THAT THE JEEP DEALERSHIP ON ROUTE 4 , PARAMUS,NJ WAS WELL AWARE OF WHEN THE SOLD ME THE JEEP. I DO NOT HAVE A LOANER CAR TO GET TO OR FROM WORK.......

TL* THE CONTACT LEASED A 2017 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE STEERING WHEEL MADE AN ABNORMAL CLICKING NOISE. THE STEERING WHEEL WAS REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE FAILURE CONTINUED WITH THE STEERING WHEEL BEING STRUCTURALLY UNSOUND. IN ADDITION, THE FUEL GAUGE FAILED TO PROVIDE A PROPER READING. THE GAUGE INDICATED THAT IT WAS EMPTY WHEN THERE WAS FUEL IN THE FUEL TANK AND VICE VERSA. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED AFTER IT WAS TAKEN BACK AND FORTH TO MANHATTAN JEEP (629 W 54TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10019, 1-(877) 225-8709). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 10.

CAR SHUTS OFF WHEN COMING TO A STOP WHEN THE AUTO OFF/ON IS TURNED OFF. ENGINE LIGHT FINALLY STARTED COMING ON BUT DID NOT AT FIRST. AFTER RESTARTING THE CAR AND TRYING TO PULL OUT IT DIES AGAIN SOMETIMES LEAVING YOU IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. I GOT STRANDED FOR ABOUT 20 MINUTES WHEN IT SHUT OFF. EVENTUALLY I WAS ABLE TO GET IT RESTARTED AND GET HOME WITH IT. NOT SURE IF THIS IS RELATED BUT WHEN TURNING I CAN HEAR A "DING" LIKE A BELL. THERE WAS ALSO A LIGHT THAT CAME ON WHICH LOOKED LIKE A LIGHTENING BOLT. I BOUGHT THE CAR USED AND IT HAS ALWAYS SEEMED LIKE THE IDOL WAS SET A LITTLE TO LOW AS IT DOESN'T REALLY MOVE WHEN YOU TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE. ALSO, WHEN THE ENGINE WENT OFF THE INSTRUMENT ON THE DASH SEEMED TO THINK THE CAR WAS STILL OPERATIONAL. IT WOULDN'T SHUT OFF LIKE IF YOU CAME HOME AND SHUT THE ENGINE OFF.

VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP FOUR TIMES. ALL HAVE BEEN CONTROL MODULE RELATED. WE LOSE ALL EXTERIOR LIGHTS. VEHICLE WILL RANDOMLY SHUT OFF WHILE IN DRIVE. NOW WE ARE HAVING AN ISSUE WITH THE VEHICLE NOT ACCELERATING AND IS IDLING ROUGH. ALL OF THESE HAPPENED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION. THIS HAS BEEN OVER A SPAN OF THE PAST YEAR.

AS I WAS DRIVING ON AN 8 LANE EXPRESSWAY MY VEHICLE EXPERIENCED AN ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING. I IMMEDITAELY TUNRED ON MY HAZARD LIGHTS TO ALERT OTHER DRIVERS AND CROSSED 7 LANES TO COME TO A COMPLETE STOP AS I COULD NO LONGER ACCELERATE. I TURNED OFF MY VEHICLE, TURNED TO THE ON POSITION TO ALLOW ALL DAHSBOARD LIGHTS TO TURN OFF AND THEN OFF. I TURNED MY VEHICLE BACK ON AND CONTINUED TO DRIVE TO MY DESITNATION BUT THIS TIME WHEN IT HAPPENED I JUST WAS GOING UP A HILL, CARS IN FRONT AND BEHIND ME I WAS RIGHT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION WITH ANOTHER ENGINE STALL WHILE DRIVING. I NEED TO BE ADDED TO THE MANUFACTURES LIST OF THE KNOW DEFECT OF THEIR VOLUNTARY RECALL THEY INITATIATED. MY CAR IS NOT SAFE TO DRIVE AND BECUASE THIS IS INTERMITTENT I CAN NOT RECREATE THIS ISSUE AT THE DEALERSHIP. I AM NOT ON THE LIST OF A RECALL EVEN THOUGH I AM HAVING ENGINE STALLS WHILE DRIVING. * '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

MY CAR EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT BUTTON HAS TURNED ON ALL BYITSELF WHILE I AM DRIVING. THE CAR STOPS AND SHUTS OFF. THEN I AM IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND I HAVE TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK, PRESS THE PULL ON P BUTTON TO TURN IT OFF. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. A CAR BEHIND CAN CRASH INTO ME. THIS HAS HAPPENED 5 TIMES SINCE FEBRUARY, THIS MORNING WAS MY 6 TIME. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE IN MY CAR ANYMORE, AFRAID OF TURNING OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING

MAY 23, 2019, MY HUSBAND WAS IN AN ACCIDENT THAT TOTALED OUR COMPASS ACCORDING TO THE POLICE IN THE TOWN. THE SPEED WAS APPROXIMATELY 30MPG. THE AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. MY HUSBAND WAS TAKEN TO FINLEY HOSPITAL. THERE WERE INJURIES CONSISTING OF ROTATOR CUFF DAMAGE. I WILL BE LOOKING INTO A LAWSUIT. THIS CAR IS VERY UNSAFE! THE CAR WAS IN MOTION, HE SAID HE EXPERIENCED BRAKE FAILURE AND STRUCK A TRAILER HOLDING A RIDING LAWNMOWER. IT WAS 12:16 PM.

IS USING OIL VERY QUICKLY. WAS TOLD TO CARRY OIL WITH ME TO KEEP THE OIL FULL SO THAT IT DOESN'T RUN OUT. WHEN OIL GETS LOW (NO OIL LEFT AFTER 3000 MILES) WILL GET BRIEF "LOW OIL PRESSURE" MESSAGE AND JEEP WILL JUST SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY. THIS ALWAYS HAPPENS WHEN I AM DRIVING. WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION YESTERDAY WHEN THIS HAPPENED ON MY WAY TO GET THE OIL CHANGED AND I ALMOST GOT HIT BY A SEMI. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE.

ONCE STARTING THE VEHICLE THE CAR REMAINS IN THE PARK POSITION AND CAN NOT BE MOVED INTO ANY OTHER GEAR. I HAVE BEEN STUCK WITH MY DAUGHTERS IN THE MID DAY IN THE HEAT BECAUSE I CAN NOT CHANGE THE GEAR. I DO HAVE A VIDEO OF IT BUT CAN NOT TAKE A PICTURE DUE TO THE FACT THAT IT WILL ONLY SHOW MY HAND ON THE GEAR. I HAVE TAKEN A SCREEN SHOT OF THE VIDEO AND UPLOADED IT.

TAKARA RECALL. I WOKE UP IN THE AM TO GO TO MEET MY FRIEND, STATED JEEP, IT WAS RUNNING FUNNY.SO I PUT IN REVERSE AND PUKKED OUT OF DRIVEWAY, GOT TO A STOP SIGN, JEEP WOULD NOT GO, NO GAS OR JUST LIKE IT WAS RUNNING OUT OF GAS.PARKING BRAKE WENT ON HAD TO SHUT IT OFF AND START IT AGAIN. THAN PULLED ON TO HYWY 65 AND IT LIKE STALLED, NO GAS POWER ATT ALL, STEERING WAS HARD ,COULD NOT TURN THE WHEEL. AND CHECK ENGINE LITE WENT ON,! AND CHECKED THE OIL BECAUSE THAT KEEPS GOING ON TO.(JUST GOT AN OIL CHANGE)HAD TOO PUT IN 2 QUARTS OF OIL. IT IS GOING SOMEWHERE? IF THERE WAS ALOT OF TRAFFIC I WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED. THERE ARE DAYS MY RADIO HAS A MIND OF IT'S OWN? IT WILL JUST CHANGE CHANNELS OR FREEZE UP. MY PASSENGER WINDOW HAS A MIND OF IT OWN SOMEDAYS IT WILL ROLE DOWNBEAT OK , NEXT DAY OR HOURS IT WONT WORK AGAIN? ALL THEDE MALFUNTIONS MAKES MY ANXIETY OFF THE CHARTS. IT IS SAD WHEN IT IS YOUR VEHICLE AND YOUR SCARED TO DRIVE IT. I HAVE 4 RECALLS AND NO ONE TOLD ME ,I HAD TO LOOK THEM UP TO GET THEM. THAT IS HORRIBLE PEOPLES LIVES ARE IN DANGER! I HOPE THAT SOMEONE ELSE DOESNT HAVE TO BE SCARED TO DIVE THERE JEEP. LIKE ME.

SINCE I'VE HAD MY CAR THE MAIN SCREEN WITH MAPS, WEATHER, RADIO, ETC. HAS SHUT OFF RANDOMLY, MY SPEAKERS HAVE TURNED UP TO THE MAX THEY COULD GO ALL BY THEMSELVES WITHOUT LETTING ME TURN ANYTHING OFF, THE WEATHER CONSTANTLY POPS UP AFTER I'VE CLEARED IT. ALL OF THIS WAS FIXED WITH REPLACING THE WHOLE SCREEN. BUT THEN AFTER THE SYSTEM WOULD NOT SAVE MY SETTING FOR THE FIRST 5 TIMES I STARTED IT BACK UP. I HAD TO KEEP SAVING THEM. IT HAS HAD MULTIPLE ISSUES, I'VE HAD TO GET DIFFERENT TIRES REPLACED AT LEAST 3-4 TIMES AND AIR LEAKS, THE LAST BEING BECAUSE THE BELT BROKE IN THEM. I HAVE AN APPOINTMENT TO GET MY FRONT USB REPLACED BECAUSE IT RANDOMLY STOPPED WORKING. I'VE HAD TO GET OTHER PARTS REPLACED THAT CONTROL MY DRIVING AND NOW IT WON'T START. THE LIGHTS, RADIO, GAUGES, ETC. ALL WORK BUT THE GAUGES MAKE A TICK SOUND BUT THE ENGINE WON'T START. THERE HAS BEEN TWO TIMES THAT IT SAYS MY CAR IS RUNNING BUT THE ENGINE ISN'T ON. I'VE HAD MY SIDE LIGHTS THAT COME ON WHEN I TURN RANDOMLY NOT WORK BUT I'M NOT SURE IF THAT IS SOMETHING I'M DOING. I HAVE TO READ THE MANUAL MORE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 25 MPH, THE CONTACT HEARD AN ABNORMAL NOISE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BUD CLARY MOSES LAKE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (LOCATED AT 12174 N FRONTAGE RD, MOSES LAKE, WA 98837, (509) 765-3461) WHERE IT WAS INITIALLY DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE CV AXLES NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE SECOND TIME THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THAT THE DRIVER AND PASSENGER SIDE BALL JOINTS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE AND THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 29,000.

MY DAUGHTER PURCHASED A BRAND NEW 2017 JEEP COMPASS FROM PAPAS DODGE IN NEW BRITAIN, CT. THE STOP/START FEATURE ON THIS VEHICLE INTERMITTENTLY FAILS. WHEN THIS OCCURS THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION AND THE ENGINE STALLS CAUSING LOSS OF STEERING AND BRAKES. THE DEALER APPARENTLY CAN NOT EMULATE THE PROBLEM BUT THEY DO NOT DRIVE IT ON A DAILY BASIS. MY DAUGHTER IS TERRIFIED TO DRIVE THIS CAR AND WAS ALMOST IN AN ACCIDENT AS A RESULT. ALSO, THIS VEHICLE HAS EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. HAVE TO ADD 1 1/2 QUART BETWEEN OIL CHANGES.

MY 2017 JEEP COMPASS IS VERY FAULTY AND HAS BEEN IN THE DEALERSHIP MAINTENANCE AREA FOR THE SAME ISSUE MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAVE ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION OF THE THREE DIFFERENT TIMES IN THE SHOP FOR THE SAME/SIMILAR ISSUES. THE FOLLOWING CONCERNS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS DOCUMENTATION: (1) THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF WHILE IN MOTION DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, THE PARKING BREAK ENGAGED AND PREVENTED THE VEHICLE FROM MOVING FURTHER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY STREET. (2) THE VEHICLE REFUSED TO START WHEN PARKED IN A GARAGE. ONCE PRESSING THE START BUTTON MULTIPLE TIMES, THE VEHICLE STARTED AND MULTIPLE SERVICE LIGHTS CAME ON, INCLUDING "SERVICE ESP" AND "SERVICE 4WD". THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE LIFE OF OWNING THE VEHICLE (ONLY 23 MONTHS AND ABOUT 18,000 MILES). I HAVE INCLUDED TWO SERVICE RECORDS (THE FIRST TIME AND MOST RECENT TIME IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP), I DO NOT HAVE THE THIRD RECORD WITH ME AS THE VEHICLE IS IN FOR MAINTENANCE CURRENTLY AND THE OTHER INVOICE IS IN THE VEHICLE, HOWEVER YOU CAN SEE RECORD OF THE SECOND VISIT IN THE RECORD FROM 4/9/2019. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHER DRIVERS GIVEN MY HISTORY WITH MY VEHICLE AND HOPE TO GET THIS PERMANENTLY FIXED INSTEAD OF PUTTING A BAND AID ON IT AS THE DEALERSHIP HAS DONE. *DT*JB

THE VEHICAL (2017 JEEP COMPASS TRAILHAWK) AUTOMATICALLY SHUT DOWN AND INHALED THE PARKING BREAK WHILE THE CAR WAS IN MOTION ON A BUSY STREET WITHOUT ANY INDICATION OF AN ISSUE BY THE DASHBOARD. THE VEHICAL TOOK SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO TURN BACK ON. ONCE IT WAS BACK ON, I WAS ABLE TO GET THE VEHICAL TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY INDICATED THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS AT THE BOTTOM OF THE DIP STICK. THE VEHICAL WASN'T AT ITS REQUIRED OIL CHANGE YET AND NO INDICATION OF LOW OIL OR LOW OIL PRESSURE WAS INDICATED TO ME THROUGH ITS SAFETY SYSTEM.

ENGINE USES OIL. HAVE TO ADD OIL SEVERAL TIMES BEFORE NEXT OIL CHANGE IS DUE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP COMPASS. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING 50 MPH, THE VEHICLE SPUTTERED AND SHUT OFF. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM FIAT MANHATTAN (678 11TH AVE, NEW YORK, NY 10019, (212) 549-2208) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURE.

THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 16,500.

THE ESS SYSTEM ACTIVATED WHEN I STOPPED FOR A RED LIGHT. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED AND I LET GO THE BREAK, THE ENGINE SPUTTERED AND THE EMERGENCY BREAK TURNED ITSELF ON, THE WHEEL BECAME VERY STIFF AND THE BREAKS BECAME VERY HARD TO PRESS, CAUSE ME TO ROLL FORWARD WHEN I TRIED STOPPING. THE ONLY WAY I COULD REGAIN FULL CONTROL WAS TO RESTART THE CAR WHILE I WAS IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION.

BRIDGESTONE FIREHAWK TIRE. THESE FACTORY TIRES ARE DEFECTIVE. THE TIRE BELTS IN ALL 4 OF MY TIRES HAVE SHIFTED CAUSING AN EXCESSIVE HUMMING NOISE. MY TIRE TREADS ARE CURRENTLY AT 5/32 AND ACCORDING TO TREAD IS NOWHERE NEAR REPLACING, HOWEVER DUE TO THE TIRE BELTS SHIFTING IN ALL 4 TIRES, I MUST REPLACE THEM IN ORDER TO AVOID A MORE SERIOUS ISSUE WITH MY VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2017 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 10 MPH, THE REAR DOORS OPENED AND A BURNING ODOR EMITTED FROM THE VENTS WITHOUT WARNING. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MANHATTAN JEEP (629 W 54TH ST, NEW YORK, NY 10019, (877) 225-8709) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE COULD NOT BE DETERMINED.

MY JEEP COMPAS WAS BUILT 8-2016 AND IS MAKING A EXTREMELY LOUD GRINDING NOISE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE TO GET LOOKED AT AND THEY ROTATED THE TIRES. THEY STATED THE TIRES ARE IN EXCELLENT CONDITION AND STATED THAT IT MAYBE THE AXEL OR INTERNALLY BECAUSE EXTERIOR VISUAL INSPECTION EVERYTHING WAS FINE. I CAME HOME AND PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND IT WAS STILL ROLLING AND I PUT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ON AND THAT WAS MAKING A GRINDING NOISE ALSO. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE. I NEED MY VEHICLE TO BE ADDED TO RECALL T-26 AS I AM NOT GOING TO PAY FOR THESE REPAIRS UPFRONT. THE GRINDING NOISE JUST SEEMS TO BE GETTING LOUDER. I DO NOT WANT TO OPERATE THE VEHICLE AND LOOSE CONTROL WHILE DRIVING MY KIDS TO SCHOOL OR EVEN JUST DRIVING TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR REPAIRS.

THE VEHICLE WAS STOPPED AT A STOPLIGHT ON A CITY EXPRESSWAY AND WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN THE STOP/START SYSTEM FAILED TO RESTART THE ENGINE. IT ENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AND WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO IMMEDIATELY RESTART THE CAR. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS TO RESTART THE CAR WITH TRAFFIC FLYING BY ME I WAS FINALLY ABLE TO RESTART THE CAR AND DISENGAGE THE PARKING BREAK. THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES AND MY DEALERSHIP SAYS THEY WILL NOT FIX IT BECAUSE THEY ARE WAITING TO RECEIVE A STOP START BATTERY FROM MOPAR. IT HAS BEEN ON BACKORDER FOR A MONTH AND THEY DONT HAVE A DATE WHEN IT WILL BE FIXED. THIS KEEPS HAPPENING AT LEAST ONCE A WEEK AND THEY DO NOTHING TO CORRECT THE PROBLEM. THE PROBLEM IS WITH THE START/STOP SYSTEM MADE TO CONSERVE GAS. THE SYSTEM SHOULD NOT LEAVE YOU STRANDED IN THE MIDDLE OF BUSY ROADS WHERE SOMEONE CAN SLAM INTO THE BACK OF YOU.

THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN MOTION EVERY OCCURRENCE AND HAPPENED ON A HIGHWAY. THE JEEP HAS SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS DRIVING. I HAD THE AUTOMATIC OFF TURNED OFF AND WHEN I STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT THE JEEP POWERED DOWN, DASH AND LIGHTS WENT CRAZY, AND MY JEEP WOULD NOT START BACK UP. IT TOOK OVER 5 MINUTES TO GET THE JEEP TO COME BACK ON. THERE IS ALSO A POPPING NOISE AND A VERY HARD SHIFT AT TIMES. WHEN THIS HARD SHIFT OCCURS IT PULLS MY JEEP TO THE RIGHT, I HAVE HAD IT IN THE SHOP SEVERAL TIMES THIS YEAR AND THEY CANNOT FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM. THEY THOUGHT CHANGING MY SHOCKS WOULD HELP BUT IT HAS NOT. THERE IS STILL A POPPING SOUND WHEN I HIT A CERTAIN SPEED AND THEN IT IS STILL SHIFTING EXTREMELY HARD RANDOMLY AND JERKS THE WHOLE JEEP WHEN IT HAPPENS. IT HAS ALMOST CAUSED ME TO WRECK A COUPLE TIMES ESPECIALLY WHEN I AM IN A RIGHT HANDED CURVE AND THIS OCCURS; IT CAUSED ME TO GO OFF ROAD WHEN I TOOK A RIGHT HANDED CURVE AND IT OCCURRED. THIS HAS BEEN HAPPENING SINCE APRIL 2018, AND I HAVE HAD IT IN THE SHOP SEVERAL TIMES. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING THING NOW I DO NOT HAVE THE FILES WITH ME TODAY AT WORK, BUT I DO HAVE THEM AT HOME. I CAN UPLOAD THE DOCUMENTATION AT A LATER DATE. UNSURE OF EXACT DATE.

MY 2017 JEEP COMPASS HAS ONLY 14,000 MILES ON IT. I MADE A TURN TODAY AND NOTICED THE LOW OIL INDICATOR CAME ON. I IMMEDIATELY TOLD MY HUSBAND AND HE CHECKED THE OIL AND IT WASN'T EVEN SHOWING UP ON THE DIP STICK. IT CAUSED MY ENGINE TO TURN OFF IN AN INTERSECTION AND I HAD TO HOPE THAT I COULD GET OUT OF THE INTERSECTION WITHOUT GETTING HIT. I MANAGED TO GET IT TURNED BACK ON AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS AUTOMATICALLY ENGAGED WHEN THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. I DISENGAGED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND STARTED MY ENGINE AND MADE IT HOME. WE DID ADD 3 QUARTS OF OIL. SO, I RESEARCHED THIS "PROBLEM" ONLINE AND FOUND MANY PEOPLE HAVING THE SAME PROBLEM WITH THIS ENGINE BURNING OIL LIKE CRAZY. I'M NOT SURE IF MY ENGINE IS DAMAGED OR NOT (DUE TO THE OIL BEING BASICALLY DRY). I AM PLANNING ON TAKING IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP. WE ADDED OIL TO GET IT BACK TO THE NORMAL LEVEL, BUT TO ME WE JUST COVERED UP THE PROBLEM. A NEW MOTOR SHOULD NOT BURN THROUGH 4 1/2 QUARTS OF OIL IN 5,000 MILES. SOMETHING NEEDS TO BE DONE. I FEEL LIKE MY $30,0000.00 VEHICLE IS A LEMON.

TWICE THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED AT A STOP SIGN. THE D ON THE GEAR SHIFT AND THE DASHBOARD FLASH AND IT SAYS PUT THE CAR IN PARK. THEN IT SAYS PRESS THE BRAKE AND PUSH START. AFTER THE CAR RESTARTS AND YOU BEGIN TO DRIVE IT FLASHES LOW OIL PRESSURE. THE THIRD TIME IT HAPPENED WE WERE DRIVING. THE LOW OIL PRESSURE FLASHED AND IT FELT KIND OF LIKE THE CAR WAS DRAGGING. WE HAD SLOWED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND THE CAR STALLED OUT. THE D ON THE GEAR SHIFTER AND THE DASHBOARD FLASHED AND IT SAID PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND THEN HOLD BRAKE AND PRESS START. THIS TIME WHEN I PRESSED THE START BUTTON IT SEEMED LIKE IT KEPT TRYING TO START THE CAR. I HAD TO PRESS THE BUTTON AGAIN TO MAKE IT STOP MAKING THAT SOUND.

I AM STILL IN SHOCK AND STILL QUITE SHAKEN UP ON THE MORNING OF TUES., 9/25/2018, WHEN AS USUAL GOT OUT OF MY HOME INTO MY JEEP TO GO TO WORK A FEW MINUTES BEFORE 6 AM. I CAREFULLY AT THE ENTRANCE AND EXIT OF MY COMMUNITY, I WAIT FOR ONGOING TRAFFIC TO BE FAR ENOUGH FOR ME TO DRIVE TOWARDS THE BLVD. AS MY JEEP STARTED TOWARDS PART OF THE BOULEVARD ALL OF SUDDEN, THE ENGINE STOPPED AS I DID NOT PRESS THE BYPASS BUTTON SO THE JEEP WENT INTO SLEEP MODE, WHEN I PRESSED THE BUTTON, IT READ," PUT VEHICLE ON PARKING MODE TO RESTART". MY HEART ALMOST CAME OUT OF MY MOUTH BECAUSE IF THERE WAS TRAFFIC ON MY LEFT I DEFINITELY WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED BY THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC THAT WAS HEADING TOWARDS ME FROM THE LEFT, I PLACED THE JEEP IN PARK, I THEN PLACED IT ON DRIVE AND HEADED TO THE DIVIDER OF THE INTERSECTION. IN TEARS, I TURNED BACK HOME AND LEFT THE JEEP IN THE DRIVEWAY. I CALLED GREENWAY IMMEDIATELY TO REPORT THE INCIDENT. I HAVE A COPY OF MY CONVERSATION WITH THE GREENWAY DODGE, CHYRSLER, JEEP AND RAM SERVICE OPERATOR ON TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2018,. A SERVICE APPT WAS SET FOR 9/29/18,AT GREENWAY. MY HUSBAND AND I WERE TOLD BY SERVICE TECH THAT THERE WAS NO BYPASS INTERCEPTION TO REMOVE THE FEATURE FROM THE JEEP SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINEWHILE IN A DRIVE MODE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS JEEP & THAT I WOULD NOT GO THROUGH WHAT I WENT THROUGH ON THAT MORNING. I AM ALIVE TO TELL EVERYONE OF WHAT HAPPENED TO ME AND NOT GOT KILLED DUE TO THE SPECIAL FEATURE THIS JEEP HAS TO CONSERVE

AROUND 8:50AM OCTOBER 4TH, 2018 MY WIFE AND BABY WERE AT A CITY STREET RED LIGHT STOPPED AND UPON ACCELERATING THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF AND THE STEERING-WHEEL LOCKED UP. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES SHE WAS ABLE TO START IT UP AGAIN. WE LIVE IN THE CITY SO THIS COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE AT ANY DIFFERENT LIGHT AT ANY TIME OF DAY. I BROUGHT IT IN FIRST THING THE NEXT MORNING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT LOW OIL CAN CAUSE AIRPOCKETS IN THE ENGINE SHUTTING THE WHOLE VEHICLE OFF. THE JEEP TECH SAID "THIS HAS BEEN SEEN A LOT ON NEWER JEEPS IN THESE MULTI-AIR ENGINES. PEOPLE COME IN FOR THE SAME REASON AND HAVE NO INDICATION OF WHAT CAUSED IT. WHEN THEY FIRST CAME OUT WE HAD TO DIAGNOSE A LOT AND 99.9% OF THE TIME THAT IS THE CAUSE." MY CAR WAS AT ~11,200 MILES, AND MY OIL CHANGE STICKER SUGGESTED ~11,600 TO GET IT CHANGED AGAIN. I HAD NO OIL LIGHT, LET ALONE WASN'T EVEN CLOSE TO THE CERTIFIED TECH'S OIL CHANGE STICKER THAT IS PLACED ON THE CAR. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE AND NOT ACCEPTABLE. THE TECH SUGGESTED KEEPING A QUART OF OIL IN MY CAR AND CHECKING THE OIL EVERY 1-2K MILES (IN A BRAND NEW VEHICLE!). THE DEALERSHIP GM CALLED ME AND ASKED IF I WANTED TO TRADE IN MY VEHICLE FOR ITS WORTH TO GET ME IN SOMETHING ELSE SINCE I WASN'T SATISFIED, BASICALLY BRUSHING OFF THE MAJOR ISSUE AT HAND. I EXPLAINED I WANT THIS VEHICLE GONE AND REFUNDED COMPLETELY. HE MENTIONED I COULD TRY MY LUCK WITH THE FCA. I PUT IN A COMPLAINT THROUGH JEEP, AND A REP BY THE NAME OF STEVE STANDER CALLED 4

I WAS ON HWY GOING SPEED LIMIT AND THE CAR IN FRONT STOPPED REALLY FAST AND I PUT ON MY BRAKES AND THE ENGINE GOT MORE POWER LIKE THE GAS PADDLE WAS STUCK I COULD NOT STOP I HAD TO GO DOWN THE SHOULDER ABOUT A MILE BEFORE THE TRUCK WOULD STOP AND I WAS PUSHING DOWN ON THE BRAKE THE WHOLE TIME

STOP SYSTEM THAT STOPS THE CAR AT RED LIGHTS FOR FUEL ECONOM. MY CAR WOULD ALL OF THE SUDDEN ACCELERATE WITHOUT MY PUTTING FOOT ON GAS PEDDLE. TOOK TO DEALER. HE SAID THERE WAS A KNOWN ISSUE WITH IT, AND WIPED THE MEMORY AND DID AN UPDATE . MY CONCERN IS THAT WHEN IT DID THIS I ALMOST GOT INTO AN ACCIDENT WITH ANOTHER CAR IN FRONT OF ME. IT ACCELERATED SO FAST I ALMOST LOST CONTROL TOO. WHEN THEY TEST DROVE IT THEY COULDN'T FIND ANYTHING WRONG. BUT WHEN THEY HOOKED IT UP TO FIND ANY ERROR CODES THEY FOUND 2. THAT'S WHEN THEY DISCOVERED THE PROBLEM. MY BIGGEST CONCERN IS THAT THEY SAID IT WAS A KNIWN ISSUE YET NO RECALL TO BRING MY CAR IN FOR THE UPDATED FIX. HADVI NOT BEEN TRAINED FOR SITUATIONS LIKE THIS I OR SOMEONE ELSE COULD HAVE GOTTEN KILLED.THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION GOING DOWN HILL I WAS RIDING THE BRAKE BECAUSE OF THE HILL. WHEN I HAD LET UP OFF THE BRAKE SLIGHTLY THAT'S WHEN IT ACCELERATED SO FAST I ALMOST LOST CONTROL.

ENGINE OIL AND STALLING. I WENT FOR MY 2ND OIL CHANGE 8/27/2018. THE SERVICE TECH AND A MECHANIC LISTENED WHEN I SAID THE OIL WAS BASICALLY GONE AND MY HUSBAND HAD TO ADD 2 QUARTS. I EVEN CHECKED ALL THE SYSTEM WARNINGS AND THERE IS NONE FOR LOW OIL. WHEN PULLING OUT INTO AN INTERSECTION THE CAR TOTALLY SHUT OFF AT 4 DIFFERENT TIMES. SO THE MECHANIC SAID YES THOSE 2.4 ENGINES BURN 1 QUART EACH 1000 MILES AND WHEN THE OIL IS LOW THE ENGINE WILL JUST STOP. I ASKED ABOUT WHY THERE ARE NO WARNING LIGHTS, THE MECHANIC AGAIN SAID YES THERE IS NOT ONE. HAVING A CAR JUST SHUT OFF IS SO DANGEROUS. IT COULD HAVE BEEN A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT IF ANOTHER CAR WAS COMING ANY OF THOSE 4 SHUT OFFS. ALSO MY CAR JERKS WHEN SHIFTING GEARS. THE SERVICE TECH COMMENTED I NEEDED A COMPUTER UPGRADE. WHILE THERE FOR THE OIL CHANGE SUPPOSEDLY THE UPGRADE WAS DONE. IT JUST JERK AGAIN THE OTHER DAY WHEN THE TRANSMISSION WAS SHIFTING. THIS CAR IS JUST A YEAR OLD - ALL OF THESE ISSUES ARE TERRIBLE AND DANGEROUS.
