2019 JEEP COMPASS Complaints

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING OVER BUMPS IN THE ROAD, THE VEHICLE SHOOK ABNORMALLY, RATTLED, AND BECAME UNSTABLE. THE CAUSE OF THE FAILURE WAS NOT DETERMINED. THE LOCAL DEALER AND MANUFACTURER WERE NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 8,000.

I CAME TO A RED LIGHT; MY CAR CUT OFF LIKE NORMAL; WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BREAK IT WOULD NOT START BACK UP. I HAD TO CUT MY HAZARDS ON. I PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK AND TRIED TO TURN MY VEHICLE ON. I TRIED 3 TIMES AND IT FINALLY STARTED. MY VEHICLE STARTED MAKING WEIRD NOISES; ON MY CONTROL PANEL IT SAID START/STOP NOT READY BATTERY PROTECTION MODE. I PARKED MY CAR AND LET IT COOL OF FOR 2 HOURS. I GOT IN MY VEHICLE, STARTED, LEFT MY HOUSE, WHEN I GOT TO THE STOP SIGN. IT DID THE SAME THING. IM HONESTLY SCARED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE BRAKING FOR A RED TRAFFIC LIGHT, THE PARKING BRAKE ACTIVATED INDEPENDENTLY. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE FROM A STOPPED POSITION, THE BRAKES LOCKED UP AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. THE CONTACT TURNED OFF AND RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE RESUMED NORMAL OPERATION. THE CONTACT CALLED HERTRICH DODGE (1147 E PULASKI HWY, ELKTON, MD 21921, (443) 907-1500) AND WAS INFORMED THAT NO ACTIONS COULD BE TAKEN UNLESS THE FAILURE WAS PRESENT BEFORE A ROAD TEST COULD BE PERFORMED. THE MANUFACTURER HAD NOT BEEN CONTACTED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 12,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

THE VEHICLE WONT START OCCASIONALLY. YOU CAN PRESS THE IGNITION, AND IT SAYS ITS ON, BUT THE ENGINE DOESNT TURN OVER. I HAVE NOTICED IT HAPPENS MORE OFTEN IF YOU 3NGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE WHILE YOUR FOOT IS ON THE BRAKE PEDDLE. TO "CORRECT" YOU HAVE TO TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, PRESS THE IGNITION BUTTON AGAIN UNTIL IT SHUTS OFF, AND THEN REAPPLY YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE DEPRESSING IT AS FAR AS YOU CAN PRESS IT AND THEN PRESS THE IGNITION BUTTON AGAIN. THERE IS A MOMENT OF HESITATION AND THEN IT STARTS UP. ADDITIONALLY THE CAR HAS SHUT OFF ON ME AT AN INTERSECTION WITH THE AUTO START FEATURE ON, AND WOULDNT RESTART WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE LIKE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO. I HAD TO FOLLOW THE SAME PROCEDURE DESCRIBE ABOVE TO "CORRECT" THE PROBLEM. BECAUSE OF THIS, I NO LONGER RUN THE CAR WITH THE AUTO START FEATURE BECAUSE ITS UNRELIABLE. ITS ALWAYS BEEN A BIT OF A ROUGH START WHENEVER I HAVE LEFT IT ON, CAUSING ME TO WONDER IF ITS ACTUALLY GOING TO START.

VEHICLE PURCHASED NEW, STILL UNDER WARRANTY SUDDENLY QUITS RUNNING WHILE IN TRAFFIC TRAVELING AT 30-50 MPH, ON A COUNTY ROAD, VEHICLE WAS STILL RECEIVING POWER HOWEVER WONT RESTART. BROUGHT TO THE DEALER WERE IT WAS PURCHASED. DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY PCM AND ESD. REPAIRED AFTER WAITING TWO WEEKS FOR THE PARTS. DROVE IT OFF THE LOT LESS THAN 3 BLOCKS AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFTEY RECALL STOPPING IN A STREAM OF TRAFFIC SUDDENLY.

IT SOUNDS LIKE THE FRAMING UNDER MY HOOD IS BOUNCING. ANYTIME I'M DRIVING ON THE ROAD, I HEAR KNOCKING EVERY TIME I HIT THE SLIGHTEST BUMP. SOUNDS AS IF SOMETHING IS LOOSE AND NOT SECURED. DEFINITELY SCARY SINCE IT'S A 2019 JEEP COMPASS, BASICALLY A BRAND NEW VEHICLE. *TR

I COMPLAINED ABOUT ENGINE TAPPING SOON AFTER BUYING THE BRAND NEW CAR IN AUGUST 2019 NOTHING WAS DONE. 5/9/20 I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE CAR AND AS I GOT READY TO PULL INTO A BUSY STREET THE TRUCK CUT OFF AND THE PARKING BREAK ENGAGED. IT TOOK ME 5 MINS TO GET IT RESTARTED AND ATTEMPTED TO BACK UP AND IT CUT OFF AGAIN. MY BREAKS HAVE BEEN FEELING AS THOUGH THEY ARE GRINDING. MY CLOCK HAS CHANGED TIME ON THE TRUCK FROM REGULAR TIME TO MILITARY TIME. WHEN MOVING MY CAR INTO DRIVE MY CAR JERKS VIOLENTLY. *TR

MY AIR BAGS DEPLOYED WITHOUT COLLISION. I WAS DRIVING HOME AT 55 MPH, THE SPEED LIMIT ON THE INTERSTATE WHEN MY CAUSE STARTED BEEPING AND AIR BAGS DEPLOYED CAUSING ME TO CLIP A CAR WHEN I SWERVED. I LATER RECEIVED NOTICED IN MY JEEP APP OF A ISSUE WITH THE AIRBAG.*DT*JB*DT*DT*JB*DT*DT*JB*JB CONSUMER STATED VEHICLE HAS BEEN TOTALED. *TR*DT

THE TOUCH SCREEN RADIO IS SWITCHING RADIO STATIONS BY ITSELF. WHEN YOU TOUCH THE STATION ON THE SCREEN IT GOES BACK TO ANOTHER STATION

2019 JEEP COMPASS. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO BROKEN AXLES ON VEHICLE AFTER DRIVING THROUGH SNOW. *LD CONSUMER STATES THAT WHILE DRIVING THROUGH SNOW ON THE HIGHWAY THE AXLES OF THE LEFT TIRES OF VEHICLE BROKE.
