2019 JEEP COMPASS Complaints

UNINTENDED ACCELERATION, AFTER BRAKING VEHICLE LURCHES FORWARD WITH UNINTENDED ACCELERATION, ALSO HARD SHIFTS WHEN IN MOTION.

I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVE WAY WHEN THE CAR COMPLETELY STOPPED AND STALLED. I TRIED TURNING THE CAR BACK ON AND IT SOUNDS LIKE IT IS ON BUT DOES NOT LET ME ACCELERATE OR REVERSE. I TRIED MULTIPLE TIMES TURNING IT ON AND OFF AND IT STILL WOULD NOT LET ME DRIVE. WE PUSHED THE CAR BACK INTO THE DRIVEWAY AND ABOUT 3 HOURS LATER I TRIED TURNING IT ON AGAIN AND IT TURNED ON. WE TOOK IT BACK TO DODGE (THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THIS CAR HAS STALLED LIKE THIS RANDOMLY) AND THEY COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND RELEASED THE CAR BACK TO US.

I WAS AT A RED LIGHTING TURNING RIGHT AND WHEN I STARTED TO GO THE CAR STALLED AND WOULD NOT LET ME GO FORWARD. I TRIED TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF AND IT MADE A NOISE LIKE THE CAR WAS TURNING ON BUT WOULD NOT LET ME MOVE FORWARD. I TRIED TURNING IT ON AND OFF A COUPLE TIMES THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I POPPED THE HOOD AND THEN TRIED TURNING THE CAR ON AGAIN, THIS TIME IT DID TURN ON AND WAS LETTING ME MOVE FORWARD AND THEN IT STALLED AGAIN AND WOULD NOT LET ME GO FORWARD. MY HUSBAND HAD TO PUSH THE CAR AND JUMP START IT (ITS A MANUAL) WE DROVE STRAIGHT TO DODGE TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND RELEASED THE CAR BACK TO US.

MY BRAKES STARTED GRINDING AT 5,000 MILES BUT IT IS INCONSISTENT, MAINLY FROM COLD TO START AND ANOTHER TIME IT DID IT FREQUENTLY DURING THE DAY.

TL* THE CONTACTS WIFE OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED.

ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS OUR NEWLY LEASED 2019 JEEP COMPASS STALLED WHILE AT HIGH SPEED. WE ALL HAD TO PULL OVER WITH OUT POWER STEERING. THIS HAPPENED SHORTLY AFTER WE PULLED OUT ON TO A MAIN ROAD FROM OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.*DT CONSUMER STATED YES, I TOOK IT TO VICTOR DODGE JEEP DEALERSHIP WHERE I LIVE AND GOT THE CAR. THEY SAID IN WAS DOWN A QUART OF OIL. FILLED IT AND SAID TO RETURN AT 7,500 MILES SO THEY COULD CHECK THE LEVEL AGAIN. I WOULD SAY THE VEHICLE WAS AT 45 MPH. THERE WAS AN OIL PRESSURE LIGHT THAT CAME ON WHEN THE CAR WAS STARTED UP. BUT IT WENT OFF RIGHT AWAY. *JB

STEERING WHEEL LOCKS UP WHILE DRIVING. SAFELY STOPPING THE VEHICLE, TURNING THE VEHICLE OFF, AND THEN RESTARTING THE VEHICLE RESETS AND UNLOCKS THE STEERING WHEEL. THIS HAS OCCURRED 4 TIMES NOW, TODAY BEING THE 4TH SINCE WE BOUGHT THE VEHICLE IN JULY 2019. TODAY'S STEERING WHEEL LOCKUP PRESENTED AN ERROR ON THE DASH: "DYNAMIC STEERING WHEEL SERVICE REQUIRED". PREVIOUS EVENTS OCCURRED IN SEPTEMBER AND AUGUST OF 2019, BUT WITHOUT ERROR DISPLAY.

NO CODE ON COMPUTER. THERE IS A SLIGHT SHAKING WHEN DRIVING ON LOW GEAR BETWEEN 10-20MPH DEALER SAID THERE WAS NO CODE TO DO ANYTHING ABOUT AND THAT IT MIGHT BE A CHARACTERISTIC OF THE VEHICLE. NO BRAND NEW CAR SHOULD SHAKE. THEY DOCUMENTED THE ISSUE BUT NOTHING COULD BE DONE ABOUT IT.
