NHTSA Complaint #10212132 — 2007 JEEP COMPASS

ON SEPTEMBER 20 2007, I WAS DRIVING TO WORK, I WHEN I CAME TO A STOP, THE ENGINE STALLED. THE CHECK OIL AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. ALSO, I DID NOT HAVE THE A\C ON. I RESTARTED THE ENGINE WITH NO PROBLEM. AND WHILE I MADE A FULL STOP FEW TIMES, I NOTICED THAT THE RPM WAS DROPPING LITTLE BY LITTLE. I CALLED JEEP TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT, I WENT ON SEPTEMPER 24,2007 TO THE DEALER TO HAVE MY CAR CHECK. I EXPLAINED EVERYTHING. WHEN I WENT TO PICK UP MY CAR, THE DEALER SAID THAT THEY COULD NOT FIND ANYTHING WRONG. THE ONLY THING THAT THEY MENTIONED WAS THAT THE COMPUTER OF THE CAR NEEDED TO BE UPDATED. AFTER I TOOK MY CAR, I HAVE NOTICED THAT THE RPM OF THE CAR DROPS AND THE ENGINE SEEMS THAT IT WANTS TO START AND THEN IT GOES BACK TO NORMAL. IT IS A VERY STRANGE BEHAVIOR BECAUSE IT WAS NOT DOING THAT BEFORE. I TRIED TO USE A DIFFERENT GAS BRAND FEW TIMES, BUT THE PROBLEM CONTINUE TO OCCUR. IT IS NOT VERY OFTEN, BUT RECENTLY IT IS DOING THAT A LITTLE MORE OFTEN. *TR
