2018 JEEP COMPASS Complaints

WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 50 MPH WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL ON, THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND SAID "SERVICE ENGINE", THE ENGINE SHUT OFF AND SHORTLY AFTER RESTARTED ON IT'S OWN. WHEN IT RESTARTED IT DID NOT ALLOW ME TO REACH THE PREVIOUS SPEED AND WOULD NOT ALLOW ME TO RESTART THE CRUISE CONTROL SYSTEM. IT DID FINALLY LET ME REACH A DECENT SPEED. I PARKED THE CAR AND THEN LATER STARTED THE CAR, IT APPEARED TO BE NORMAL, THE CRUISE CONTROL WORKED AGAIN. AT HOME I WAS ABLE TO RESET THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT. THIS WAS DANGEROUS BECAUSE IF THERE WAS A VEHICLE CLOSE BEHIND ME THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN AN ACCIDENT.

OUTRAGIOUS OIL CONSUMPTION, CAR SHUTS DOWN OR SLOWS DOWN SIGNIFICANTLY WHILE DRIVING, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND NOW READS CODE P1DD2, IVE ONLY HAD THIS VEHICLE FOR 1.5 YRS. AND IVE HAD TO CHANGE OIL ABOUT 8 TIMES AND CARRY EXTRA OIL WITH ME IN CASE IT ACTS UP OR NEEDS IT. NOW CAR WONT GO OVER 30 MPH AND SPITS AND SPUTTERS. I JUST GOT AN OIL CHANGE DONE! LITERALLY 2 DAYS AGO. PLUS I JUST HAD TO REPLACE SWAY BAR LINKS AND BOTH FRONT TIRES DUE TO ACCESSIVE WEAR. THIS VEHICLE DOESNT EVEN HAVE 35,000 MILES ON IT. THERE SHOULD BE NO REASON TO REPLACE THOSE THINGS SO SOON. PLEASE HELP!

I have been told by my mechanics that there is an issue with my vehicle and its oil consumption. Due to the excessive oil burn, I have had to get my oil changes frequently and sooner than expected. My vehicle has suddenly turned off while driving and now has a warning that the "Stop/Start Unavailable Service Stop/Start System."

The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that while his wife was driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle lost motive power with the check engine warning light illuminated. The contact stated that the engine was consuming an excessive amount of oil. The contact arrived on the scene and added two quarts of oil to the engine. The vehicle was able to restart. The vehicle was then taken to the dealer, and the dealer performed an oil change; however, the vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and advised the contact to file a complaint with the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was 61,938.

My U-Connect Navigation system on my 2018 Jeep Compass is delaminating and ghosting. Unfortunately my air conditioning was changing from air to heat on a day when the temperature outside was 95 degrees. This is definitely a safety issue. Trying to get the air conditioning back on, I took my eyes off the road to change and ran off the road.

Vehicle has Bi-Xenon Headlights which have started to intermittently fail while driving. Sometimes one light lights up alternating side to side and sometimes both will not light,. Sometimes one will come on immediately and the other will take up to 5 minutes to light. On two occasion both have shut off while driving at night. Definite safety issue. Occurs irrespective of the headlight switch position (Auto or On) Dealer has been unable to replicate the issue on demand.

The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while driving 60 MPH, the vehicle lost motive power and stalled. The traction control warning light illuminated and several other unknown warning lights illuminated. The contact waited until the vehicle cooled down and was able to restart the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer and the contact was informed that the ECM needed to be updated, and the battery needed to be replaced.

The week after I purchased it, the warning for my eco fuel came on and then service engine light. I was traveling at 45 mph and it instructed me to pull safely to the side of the road. Before I could do so, the car seized and jerked to a halt at a slowing speed of 10pm. The car had to be towed, “reset”. Since then I get the same alerts, the car will not accelerate when this happens and then slowly declines and shut down.

The truck just stopped in the middle of the highway. I came to a red light when it turned green the car would not move. The emergency brake engaged and would not disengage to allow the car to be placed in neutral. All power was loss with no warning or check engine notification. Come to find out both batteries were bad. Having the vehicle only 4 months and no one wants to take responsibility for the repairs.
