2022 JEEP COMPASS Complaints

When I am stopped at a red light, once the light turns green I go to accelerate and the vehicle stalls. The car is still on but the engine completely shuts off. The only way for the vehicle to move again is by turning the car off and then on again. It is extremely dangerous and I have almost been rear ended because of it. Another issue I am having is when I go to accelerate the car jolts and has a grip to it. It feels like something is pulling the car back and I have to push extra hard on the gas to move the car. This happens a lot when merging on the high way or accelerating on side streets.

At night the backup camera is extremely dark and very dangerous when backing up at night. I almost backed over my son who was walking behind my car. It's way too difficult to see. The dealership said everything is to spec. I've seen many online complaints about this.

I have my car for 2 years and the engine has stalled on me 4-5 times at lights trying to come out of the start stop mode. I’ve almost been rear ended multiple times. When these random incidents occur cars behind me do not know what is going on. I took my car to the dealer on 10/3/2023 and they were able to duplicate the problem as I’ve stated it does it at random the code service shifter also flashes on the dash as well as auto start stop not available. But the dealer says the codes are not stored and can’t find them.

The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while driving various speeds, the instrument cluster lights were extremely bright, causing a visual impairment while driving. No warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to a dealer for diagnostic test, and it was determined that the IPC display needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired by the dealer; however, the failure reoccurred. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and suggested that the contact receive another diagnostic test from the dealer. The failure mileage was unknown.

Since the last over-the -air (OTA) software update, numerous systems have malfunctioned and then fixed themselves. The exception is the dashboard lighting problem to be addressed by NHTSA Recall # 23V-576, FCA Recall # 88A which also started with the latest update, is continuous, not intermittent. I feel the most serious malfunction is when a turn signal will not turn off, irregardless of manual control/lever use. Overall, my main question / complaint is since all these problems were installed by the OTA update, why can't the fixes also be installed OTA instead of having going to the dealership? Thank you.

When the sun is out it makes a really bad light reflection on the center consol display border, the shifter and shifter cover. Since it’s made of gloss materials it reflects In your eyes causing loss of sight because of the light reflection. This beams sun light right into the drivers eyes.

Vehciel frequently jurks will driving in low speed ; this issue is sinec I bought the car new. Front collision ?? light comes off automatically and I have to reset it manually. Also the AEB light came off for no reason.

Every week of every month since purchasing this car, the electrical system more specifically the Forward Crash Warning system which controls steering and brakes has failed. The system is continually turning off and it has been for repairs where they have replaced the sensors and cameras. No resolution has been made and it’s been now sitting at the dealership since September 1. I’m making payments on a car that can’t be driven. Furthermore every loaner Compass I’ve been given has had the exact same problem no sooner than driving off the lot. The bright light upon system failure is a distraction and the system not working right is a danger to life, limb and property.

This vehicle randomly shuts off. It is usually when I’m going at a slow speed or applying the break. It cuts off and jerks for a second and then I put the vehicle in park cut it off and restart it and it works normal.
