2016 JEEP COMPASS Complaints

TAKATA RECALL. WHEN ACCELERATING IN THE CAR THE ENGINE RANDOMLY STALLS AND THE CAR JERKS. IT HAPPENS ON THE HIGHWAYS AND SIDE STREETS. THE 2016 JEEP COMPASS SAYS IT HAS A RECALL FOR AN ISSUE WITH THE CRANKSHAFT BUT MY SPECIFIC ONE HAS THIS ISSUE AND THERE ARE NO RECALLS ASSOCIATED WITH MY VIN.

ACCIDENT ON 12/25/2018 THE TRUCK WAS DEAM TOTAL BUT NO AIR BAG WAS DEPLOYED , ..*BF... *TR

CONSTANT SQUEALING AND GRINDING NOISE AND HAS BEEN OCCURRING SINCE I'VE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE. MY VEHICLE NOW HAS 14028 MILES ON IT AND THE BRAKES STILL MAKES THIS NOISE WHEN COMING TO A STOP.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT CALLED SOUTH CHICAGO CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (7340 S WESTERN AVE, CHICAGO, IL 60636, (888) 470-4543) AND WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 16V907000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 66,545.

CAR STALLS FOR NO REASON WHILE DRIVING. THE VIN SHOWS NO RECALLS, BUT CHRYSLER RECALLED VEHICLES FOR THIS PROBLEM IN DEC. 16, 2016 ( RECALL 16V907000), INCLUDING 2016 JEEP COMPASS. HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE PAST MONTH.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2016 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. AFTER RESTARTING THE ENGINE, THE VEHICLE OPERATED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO BERGLUND CHRYSLER JEEP (2525 FRANKLIN RD, ROANOKE, VA) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CRANK SENSOR WAS FAULTY. THE CRANK SENSOR WAS REPROGRAMMED, BUT THE FAILURE CONTINUED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 55,000.

I HAVE A 2016 JEEP COMPASS AND IT RANDOMLY JUST TURNS OFF WHILE I AM DRIVING IT. MY CAR HAS 55,000 MILES ON IT. WHEN IT FIRST HAPPENED IT HAD A CODE FOR A CRANK SENSOR AND I WAS TOLD IT REQUIRED AN UPDATE. THE UPDATE DID NOT CHANGE A THING. MY CAR WAS STILL TURNING OFF AT RANDOM TIMES. THIS LAST TIME IT TURNED OFF AT A RED LIGHT AND WHILE IN DRIVE BEGAN TO ROLL BACKWARDS DOWN A HILL INTO ONCOMING TRAFFIC. ONCE I STOPPED THE CAR, PUT ON MY FLASHERS, AND HAD IT IN PARK MY JEEP COMPASS WOULD NOT START AGAIN. I THEN HAD TO FLAG DOWN A POLICE OFFICER TO HELP WITH THE TRAFFIC AROUND ME. MY CAR EVENTUALLY STARTED AND I DROVE IT RIGHT TO THE JEEP DEALER WHO TOLD ME THERE WAS NO CODES AND NOTHING WRONG WITH MY CAR, WHICH CLEARLY THERE MUST BE PROBLEM. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE FOR MYSELF OR OTHERS WHILE DRIVING THIS CAR. CHRYSLER NEEDS TO FIX THIS PROBLEM. THERE HAVE BEEN MANY PEOPLE ON THIS SITE COMPLAINING OF THE SAME EXACT PROBLEM. 2016 JEEP COMPASS HAD A RECALL FOR THE CRANK SENSOR BUT MY CAR DID NOT FALL UNDER THIS RECALL BUT CLEARLY IT SHOULD HAVE. THIS IS MY 3RD TIME AT THE CHRYSLER DEALER WHO HAVE BEEN UNABLE TO RECREATE THE PROBLEM I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING.

MY CAR CONTINUALLY SHUT DOWNS WHILE DRIVING! THIS IS VERY UNSAFE AND HAPPENS WHILE I AM DRIVING ON THE PA TURNPIKE CRUISE CONTROL SET. NO WARNING NO SOUND, THE CAR DOES NOT OVER HEAT. THE CAR JUST SHUTS DOWN. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED MY LOCAL JEEP DEALER FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED, AT APPROX 3:15 AM IN THE MORNING AND LEFT A MESSAGE. I DROPPED MY VEHICLE OFF 2 DAYS LATER (I BELIEVE) AND BY THAT TIME IT WAS JUMPING AS WELL WHEN INCREASING SPEED OR COMING AROUND CORNERS. THEY STATED THEY COULD NOT REPLICATE THE ISSUE. I WENT TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WENT OUT WITH THE SERVICE MGR AND REPLICATED THE ISSUE. CAR DID NOT STALL AT THAT TIME AND I WAS TOLD WITH NO CODES, OR NOT BEING ABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE THEY CANNOT DETERMINE THE CAUSE. SPARK PLUGS REPLACED $300 LATER NO JUMPING BUT CAR IS STILL STALLING!!!!!!! THIS IS A VERY UNSAFE SITUATION. MY CAR IS CONTINUING TO STALL WHILE DRIVING TO WORK IN THE EARLY AM 3AM ON THE PA TURNPIKE. I COULD BE KILLED BY TRACTOR TRAILER. AGAIN THIS AM, I HAD CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 65 MPH - CAR STALLED NO WARNING!. THANKFULLY I WAS IN THE RIGHT LANE AND COASTED TO THE SHOULDER. PUT MY CAR IN PARK, TURN THE KEY TO OFF AND ATTEMPTED TO RESTART MY CAR - NOTHING!! WOULD TURN BUT NOT START, WAITED APPROX 1 MINUTE AND TRIED AGAIN, SAME THING WOULD NOT START. WAITED ANOTHER MINUTE,TRIED AGAIN AND THE CAR STARTED AND NOW THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT IS ON. I DROVE TO WORK AT 55 MPH WITH FLASHERS ON - TOTALLY UNSAFE ON THE PA TURNPIKE. I CALLED MY DEALER IMMEDIATELY AND LEFT ANOTHER MESSAGE FOR THE SERVICE MGR AROUND 3AM THAT THIS HAPPENED AGAIN. HE ADVISED TAKE TO AN AUTO ZONE TO HAVE THE CODE CHECKED SINCE THEY DO FOR FREE. I HAVE NO CONFIDENCE IN THIS CAR-I DRIVE ALMOST 2 HRS TO GO TO WORK I AM SO SCARED OF THIS CAR AND AFRAID I AM GOING TO GET KILLED ON THE TURNPIKE BECAUSE OF THIS. WILL GO TO AUTOZONE CALL JOE,AND ATTEMPT TO GET HOME TO DEALER

KEY WILL NOT TURN. STATIONARY, TURN STEERING WHEEL AND KEY WILL TURN. ONE TIME REFUSED TO TURN. HAD CAR TOWED.

THE PASSENGER SEAT BELT DOES NOT SEEM TO FULL ENGAGE WHEN I CLICK MY SEAT BELT. I HAD NOTICED WHEN WE CAME TO A SUDDEN STOP WHILE DRIVING TO A NEARBY STORE AND THE SELF BELT CAME UNDONE RIGHT AFTER I HAD CLICKED IT IN. THANKFULLY THE CONVENIENCE STORE IS ONLY A MILE OR SO AWAY ON A MAIN HIGHWAY ROUTE. I STRONGLY BELIEVE THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE AND SINCE THEN HAVE MADE SURE TO DOUBLE CHECK BY PULLING ON IT TO SEE IF IT'S FULLY ENGAGED. THERE ARE TIME WHERE IT'LL KEEP COMING UNDONE AND I HAVE TO KEEP CLICKING IT ON UNTIL IT FULLY ENGAGED.
