2014 JEEP COMPASS Complaints

MY 2014 COMPASS HAS CONTINUOUS ISSUES WITH THE THROTTLE/THROTTLE BODY AND OR CATALYTIC CONVERTER. 3/2019 HAD A USED CC PUT ON WITH LOCAL MECHANIC (OUT OF POCKET $)- 5/2019 NEW THROTTLE BODY COVERED BY EXTENDED WARRANTY/ 9/2019 INTAKE MANIFOLD GASKETS REPLACED (OUT OF POCKET $) 12/2019 CC REPLACED PER RECALL PLUS IGNITION COILS REPLACED (OUT OF POCKET $). IT APPEARS AS THOUGHT THIS VEHICLE HAS CONTINUOUS ISSUES RELATED TO THE FUEL INJECTION SYSTEM.. THROTTLE.. ETC. THE VEHICLE CONTINUES TO EXPERIENCE LOSS OF POWER.. SLUGGISH THROTTLE AND RANDOM TIMES, SMELL OF FUEL OR EXHAUST AND JERKING MOTIONS WHEN PRESSING THE GAS. THESE ISSUES ARE THE SAME ISSUES I HAVE EXPERIENCED WITH THE VEHICLE OVER THE YEARS WHILE ADDRESSING THE ABOVE REFERENCED ISSUES. WHILE THERE IS NO CHECK ENGINE LIGHT ON.. THE ISSUES HAPPEN MORE AND MORE FREQUENTLY. I HAVE PRESENTED MY VEHICLE AT A GENERAL MECHANIC AND A TRANSMISSION SHOP (BOTH OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES) AND WITHOUT A FAILURE CODE.. OR AN APPARENT ISSUE AT THE TIME OF ARRIVAL.. RECREATING THE ISSUE IS DIFFICULT. I AM REALLY STRUGGLING WITH THIS ISSUE.. AS I AM A SINGLE MOTHER TRYING TO REBUILD MY LIFE AFTER EXPERIENCING JOB LOSS DUE TO COVID19. I AM EMPLOYED AND RELY HEAVILY UPON MY TRANSPORTATION.. CAN I HAVE SOME INSIGHT AS TO WHAT QUALIFIES A VEHICLE FOR CERTAIN RECALLS? I SEE THAT MY VIN IS NOT INCLUDED WITH ANY CURRENT RECALLS.. BUT THE ENGINE AND OR FUEL SYSTEM IS DOING THE SAME THING AS PRIOR TO REPAIRING THE CC AND OTHER COMPONENTS THAT WERE OUT OF POCKET EXPENSES. THE VEHICLE ITSELF WILL EXPERIENCE THE "DRAGGING" ENGINE WHILE AFTER STOPPING AND THEN STARTING AGAIN.. IN RUSH HOUR TRAFFIC AND CROSSING INTERSECTIONS. I AM VERY AFRAID THE ENGINE WILL STALL OUT CAUSING AN ACCIDENT AS IT HAS NEARLY HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES. PLEASE LET ME KNOW WHAT CAN BE DONE ABOUT THIS.. AS I AM IN DESPERATE NEED OF SOME HELP RIGHT NOW.

FIANCE WAS DRIVING AND BECAME UNCONSCIOUS AND HIT TREE/BUSHES HEAD ON AND AIRBAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. DATE OF ACCIDENT 8/27/2020 EST TIME 5PM-5:30PM*DT*JB

THE ACTIVE HEADREST ON THE DRIVER'S SEAT DEPLOYED WHILE THE CAR WAS PARKED AND OFF - THE PLASTIC CLIPS INTENDED TO HOLD IT IN PLACE IN RESTING POSITION SNAPPED AND THE HEADREST IS UNABLE TO BE RESET. NO ONE WAS IN THE CAR AT THE TIME.

PASSENGER SIDE ACTIVE HEADREST DEPLOYED WHILE SITTING IN THE DRIVEWAY WITH NOBODY IN THE VEHICLE. UNABLE TO RESET AS THE CLIPS ARE BROKEN, AS CAN BE SEEN IN THE ATTACHED PHOTOS.

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AND IT WAS NOT GETTING ANY SPEED WITH THE PEDAL FLOORED. THE CAR STARTED MAKING LOUD NOISES FROM ENGINE AND THE ETC LIGHT CAME ON, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON WHICH IS THE MIL LIGHT, ALSO THE ESC LIGHT,I WAS DRIVING AND ALMOST GOT HIT BECAUSE OF IT DRIVING FINE SPEED LIMIT AND THEN DOWN TO LESS THAN 5 MPH ON A VERY BUSY STREET AND INTERSECTION. THERE IS A MAJOR ISSUE AS I HAD IT IN THE SHOP A MONTH AGO FOR ANOTHER MALFUNCTION. I WAS DRIVING 55 MPH AND SUDDENLY IT JUST LOST ALL COMPRESSION TO LESS THAN 5 MPH. I WAS ABLE TO FINALLY PULL OVER TO AN AREA THAT HAD NO SHOULDER SO I WAS HALF IN THE ROAD AND TURNED THE CAR OFF. READ THE MANUAL AND SAID TO CYCLE THE ENGINE SEVERAL TIMES TO SEE IF BETTER. IR WASN'T BETTER,AND NOW TRYING TO GO INTO REVERSE, PEDAL TO THE GROUND IT CREEPS 1 TO 2 MPH.

WHILE DRIVING THE ETC LIGHT CAME ON AND CAR LOST SPEED TO 20 MPH. ALSO THE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I PULLED OVER GOT OUT MY MANUAL AND IT SAID TO PUT IN PARK AND TURN OFF CAR. CYCLE? IT AND TRY TO START AGAIN. IT WORKED FOR THE NEXT 5 MILES AND DID IT AGAIN. AIR CONDITIONER STOPPED PUTTING OUT COOL AIR. I DROVE HOME AT 20 MPH

I'VE BEEN HAVING ISSUES FOR A COUPLE OF WEEKS NOW AND I THOUGHT IT WAS MY TRANSMISSION SLIPPING. NOW I'M HAVING MY ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT SHOWING AND MY CAR JUMPS AND DOESN'T WANT TO ACCELERATE WHEN I'M AT STOP LIGHTS OR STOP SIGNS. IT ALSO JUMPS WHILE I DRIVE ON THE FREEWAY. IT HAS GOTTEN DRASTICALLY WORSE OVER TIME AND I WOULD LIKE THIS ISSUE LOOKED INTO.

AS I WAS DRIVING YESTERDAY MY VEHICLE JUST RANDOMLY STALLED OUT ON ME AND AFTER SEARCHING I FIND THAT THIS WAS AN ISSUE THAT LEAD TO A RECALL. MY VEHICLE AT TIMES WILL SHUTTER/HESITATE OR WHATEVER YOU WANT TO CALL IT WHICH IS ALSO DESCRIBED IN THE RECALL. I DON'T BELIEVE THIS ISSUE WAS PROPERLY RESOLVED WHEN THE PREVIOUS OWNER SUPPOSEDLY HAD IT FIXED

WHILE DRIVING THE ESC MALFUNCTION LIGHT CAME ON AND LOSS OF POWER. HAPPENED AGAIN AND ENGINE COMPLETELY STALLED AND WOULD NOT TURN OVER FOR ANOTHER FIVE MINUTES. *TR

WHILE DRIVING MY JEEP CONTINUES TO STALL AND STUTTER AND GIVES OFF MULTIPLE ERROR CODES. I GET MY 4 WHEEL TURNED ON, ABS, FUEL PUMP, AND AN ELECTRICAL CODE THAT IS A LIGHTING BOLT IN A SET OF PARENTHESIS. THIS IS HAPPENING EACH TIME I AM DRIVING AND THE CAR SLOWS TO ABOUT 10 MPH THEN BEGINS TO STOP DRIVING. *TR
