2018 JEEP COMPASS Complaints

1) 10/29/2020 I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH THE CRUSE CONTROL ON WHEN THE CAR MADE A LOUD THUMP, JUMPED OUT CRUSE CONTROL, SHUT OFF, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER SITTING FOR A BIT, CAR STARTED BUT WOULD NOT GO OVER 25 MPR BACK TO TOWN. AT THE SIGNAL LIGHT, WHEN STOPPED, THE CAR STARTED TO GO IN REVERSE. WAS ABLE TO STOP IT AGAIN, AND GOT IT TO DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT NEEDED A COMPUTER UPDATE. 2) 12/06/2020 1 MONTH LATER, DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY HOME FROM WORK AT NIGHT, CAR DID IT AGAIN, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER SITTING, IT STARTED, BUT WOULD NOT RUN OVER 25 MPR. AND THIS TIME AT SIGNAL LIGHT STOPPED, THE CAR SURGED FORWARD AND ALMOST HIT THE CAR IN FRONT. THE CAR IS GOING BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP ASAP. THIS CAR IS VERY DANGEROUS

THE SERVICE AIRBAG SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT KEEPS ILLUMINATING. IT WILL STAY ON FOR ABOUT 30 SECONDS AND THEN TURN OFF. I HAVE BROUGHT THE JEEP TO THE DEALERSHIP FOR THIS ISSUE 5 TIMES. THEY CANNOT FIND THE PROBLEM. THEY HAVE REPLACED THE WIRING HARNESS AND THEN OCCUPANT RESTRAINT CONTROLLER. THE AIRBAG LIGHT STILL COMES ON AND OFF. JEEP HAS DONE NOTHING TO RECTIFY THE SITUATION, THEY HAVE TOLD ME THAT I SIMPLY HAVE TO DEAL WITH IT. I HAVE FILED FOR ARBITRATION AND THEY HAVE CLAIMED THAT IT IS NOT A SAFETY ISSUE. ALL TIMES THAT THE AIRBAG LIGHT HAS COME ON, THE VEHICLE HAS BEEN IN MOTION. IT HAS HAPPENED IN THE CITY, IT HAS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY, IT HAS HAPPENED AT HIGH SPEEDS AND VERY LOW SPEEDS. IT HAPPENS WHEN GOING STRAIGHT, TURNING, IT REALLY HAS NO PREFERENCE.

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX 30MPH THE VEHICLE STALLS AND MESSAGE CENTER READS "TO SHIFT, VEHICLE MUST BE STOPPED" THEN STATES "SHIFT TO P THEN DESIRED GEAR. THE RESTART IS ROUGH. VEHICLE IS 2.5YRS OLD WITH 45.5K MILES.

I WAS ON THE WAY HOME FROM PURCHASING A USED 2018 JEEP COMPASS WITH 24000 MILES AND THE VEHICLE DIED TWICE WITHIN A COUPLE OF MINUTES WHEN WE PULLED OFF THE I INTERSTATE TO GET SOME FOOD. IT WAS WHEN WE WERE JUST COASTING INTO OUR DESTINATION. THE COMPASS'S PARKING BRAKE LIGHT THEN CAME ON AND A DASH MESSAGE READ "VEHICLE CANNOT SHIFT WHILE MOVING" OR SOMETHING TO THAT EXTENT. IT THEN TURNED OVER MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE STARTING BUT DROVE FINE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DRIVE HOME. HOPING THIS DOES NOT CONTINUE THROUGH THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE.

I WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT, LGHT TURNED GREEN AND WENT TO PRESS THE GAS TO GO THRU THE LIGHT BUT CAR STALLED AND BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON. CAR BEHIND ME ALMOST RAN INTO ME AND HAD TO SWERVE TO MISS ME. I HAD TO TURN THE ENTIRE CAR OFF AT THE LIGHT, PUSH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE SYSTEM A FEW TIMES UNTIL TGE LIGHT WENT OFF BEFORE I COULD PROCEED THROUGH THE LIGHT. THIS HAPPENED 6-7 ADDITIONAL TIMES BEFORE I TOOK IT BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP. THE DEALORSHIP SERVICED THE CAR 1 WEEK PRIOR AND SAID NOTING WAS FOUND ON THE DIAGNOSTIC TEST. CAR HAS STOPPED, JUST QUIT WHILE DRIVING AND BRAKING SYSTEM LIGHT COMES ON. IT HAPPENS WHEN PARKED AND AT A RED LIGHT OR TRYING TO MOVE FORWARD OR WHILE DRIVING. VERY SCARY.

THE VEHICLE STALLED AFTER PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING FINE BEFORE BEING PARKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TELLING US TO PUT IT IN PARK TO START AND IT TOOK 3 TRIES TO START IT.

THE VEHICLE STALLED WHEN GOING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AFTER COMING TO A STOP. THE START/STOP WAS ENABLED AND VEHICLE STARTED UP THEN STALLED WHEN IN INTERSECTION. THE VEHICLE STARTED UP AFTER A FEW TRIES TO DRIVE OUR OF INTERSECTION.

AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT A STOP SIGN, I STARTED TO TURN LEFT AND MY EMERGENCY BREAK ENGAGED, CAR STALLED, WOULD NOT START, ADVISERS ME TO PUT IN PARK AND HIT START/STOP BUTTON. I DID SO AND THEN THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD PRESSURE BENEATH IT WHERE I COULD NOT BRAKE AND BEGAN TO ROLL BACK NEARLY HITTING CAR BEHIND ME. FOR 5-10 MINUTES CAR WAS STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROA. TURNED CAR COMPLETELY OFF AND ENGINE LIGHT AND RED LIGHTING LIGHTS CAME ON. AFTER MY TOOLE ATTEMPTS TO RESTART CAR AND DISENGAGE EMERGENCY BRAKE, CAR STARTED AND COULD DRIVE MYSELF BACK HOME. I'M HESISTANT TO EVEN TAKE THE CAR IN, BECAUSE I'VE READ OF MULTIPLE REPORTS OF THIS OCCURRING TO OTHER DRIVERS WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I DON'T FEEL SAFE WITH THE CAR LOCKING UP AND FAILING TO WHERE I CAN EVEN BRAKE OR PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

THIS CAR NEEDS TOO MUCH OIL AND STALLS ALL THE TIME!!!! WHEN IS JEEP GOING TO FIX THIS!!! I AM SENDING THE 500 APPROX. NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS TO MY LAWYER TO HOLD ON TO SO WHEN I GET IN AN ACCIDENT WE WILL KNOW JEEP DID NOTHING TO HELP THESE PEOPLE!! JEEP, PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM. HOW MANY ACCIDENTS BEFORE IT IS WORTH IT TO YOUR COMPANY TO TAKE CARE OF THIS IN ADVANCE OF ACCIDENTS?
