2012 JEEP COMPASS Complaints

MANY OF THESE VEHICLES HAVE A PROBLEM WITH A ROLL OVER VALVE, RECALL NHTSA 12V14200, THE TANK NEEDS TO BE REPLACED. MY VEHICLE HAS THE SAME PROBLEM. IT DOES NOT ALLOW ME TO PUMP GAS PROPERLY DUE TO A DAMAGED ROLLOVER VALVE AS STATED BY MY MECHANIC. HOWEVER, MY VEHICLE IS NOT INCLUDED IN TE RECALL. IT SHOULD BE INCLUDED AND I SHOULDN'T HAVE TO PAY FOR IT. FILES CAN BE UPLOADED BY REQUEST. RESEARCHED THE INTERNET AND MANY OTHER JEEP COMPASS VEHICLES HAVE THE SAME PROBLEM.

TRANSMISSION TEMP LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR LOST SPEED AND MADE FUNNY WHINING NOISE. WE HAD TO PULL OFF THE ROAD AND WAIT TILL LIGHT WENT OFF. IT WAS A WARM DAY, ABOUT 94 DEGREES AND DRIVING IN WY. SAME THING HAPPENED AGAIN IN KS ON A WARM DAY. THE AC WAS BEING USED. I'VE SEEN MAY REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHER CARS WITH THE CVT. I WANT JEEP TO REPLACE THE TYRANNY.

NHTSA RECALL # 16V-668 ON MY 2012 JEEP COMPASS IS STILL INCOMPLETE. THE MANUFACTURER STILL ADVISES THERE IS NO REMEDY, EVEN THOUGH IT HAS ALMOST BEEN A YEAR SINCE THE RECALL WAS ISSUED. I AM TRYING TO TRADE THIS VEHICLE IN AND THE DEALERSHIP IS TELLING ME THEY CAN'T ACCEPT A 2012 EXCELLENT CONDITION JEEP COMPASS WITH 54,000 MILES ON IT, BECAUSE OF A RECALL THAT CAN'T BE FIXED. THEREFORE, I AM BEING PENALIZED FOR SOMETHING THAT IS COMPLETELY OUT OF MY CONTROL AND IS THE FULL RESPONSIBILITY OF THE MANUFACTURER.

I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING MY VEHICLE WHEN THE SEAT BELTS AND AIR BAGS MAY NOT WORK IN A COLLISION! CURRENTLY THERE ARE NO PARTS TO FIX THIS ISSUE AND THE RECALL WAS INITIATED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2016--IT HAS BEEN ALMOST A YEAR! WHAT ABOUT CHILDREN RIDING IN THE VEHICLE?!

TAKATA RECALL MY AIR BAG LIGHT CAME ON, BUT THERE ARE NO PARTS TO FIX IT. SO I AND MY WIFE ARE FORCED TO DRIVE WITH A NO WORKING AIRBAG SYSTEM. HOW LONG IS GOING TO TAKE?

TL* TAKATA RECALL. THE CONTACT OWNS A 2012 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT RECEIVED NOTIFICATION OF NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V668000 (SEAT BELTS, AIR BAGS); HOWEVER, THE PART TO DO THE REPAIR WAS UNAVAILABLE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE MANUFACTURER EXCEEDED A REASONABLE AMOUNT OF TIME FOR THE RECALL REPAIR. THE DEALER WAS CONTACTED (BERGERON JEEP IN NEW ORLEANS, LA) AND CONFIRMED THAT THE PARTS WERE NOT AVAILABLE FOR THE RECALL REMEDY. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE ISSUE AND WAS NOT ABLE TO CONFIRM WHEN THE PARTS WERE TO BECOME AVAILABLE. THE CONTACT HAD NOT EXPERIENCED A FAILURE. VIN TOOL CONFIRMS PARTS NOT AVAILABLE.

RECALL WAS ISSUED IN SEPTEMBER OF 2016 AND MANUFACTURER HAS YET TO MAKE A PART AVAILABLE TO RESOLVE THIS SAFETY ISSUE.

SAFETY BELT AND AIR BAG RECALL INFORMATION GIVEN SEPTEMBER 2016. AS OF JUNE 2017 THERE IS STILL NO FIX AVAILABLE FOR THIS.

IT IS NOT JUST JEEP WRANGLERS WITH DEFECTIVE TIPMS. I HAVE HAD TO HAVE MINE REPLACED TWICE IN THE LAST 18 MONTHS AND 32000 MILES. SINCE I DRIVE MY VEHICLE FOR WORK AS A MAIL CARRIER THIS IS A MAJOR PROBLEM FOR ME. IT HAS STRANDED ME BOTH TIMES IN THE MIDDLE OF A BUSY HIGHWAY. I HAD TO EXIT THE VEHICLE BOTH TIMES WITHOUT ANY HAZARD LIGHTS AND PUSH IT OFF THE ROAD. BEYOND THE DANGER INVOLVED IN THESE FAILURES THE FINANCIAL BURDEN OF HAVING TO MISS WORK WHILE THE MANUFACTURER TAKES IT'S SWEET TIME GETTING THE PART TO THE DEALERSHIP IS DEVASTATING. MY FAMILY AND I SIMPLY CANNOT REMAIN FINANCIALLY SOLVENT THROUGH ANOTHER OF THESE FAILURES AS I AM A SINGLE PARENT SUPPORTING A FAMILY OF FOUR.

REC'D NOTICE FROM FCA REGARDING RECALL, S61/NHTA16V-688. AFTER CONTACTING FCA, WAS INFORMED THAT PART REQUIRED WOULD BE AVAILABLE BY 1 JUNE 2017. HAVE YET TO HEAR FROM FCA NOR COULD A REP TELL ME WHEN PART WOULD BE AVAILABLE. SITUATION IS SUCH THAT THE AFFECTED VEHICLE CAN NOT BE SOLD OR TRADED AND IS LOOSING VALUE. VEHICLE IS PARKED AND ESSENTIALLY UNUSABLE AS IT COULD PRODUCE MORE HARM THAN GOOD TO MYSELF OR OTHERS IF USED AND AN INCIDENT OCCURS. FCA IS NOT RESPONDING AS THEY STATED OR AS I REQUESTED NOR HAVE THEY PROVIDED REIMBURSEMENT FOR DIAGNOSTIC WORK DONE A LOCAL DEALER AS THEY INITIALLY PROMISED.
