NHTSA Complaint #11129994 — 2015 JEEP COMPASS

2015 JEEP COMPASS - THE VEHICLE WILL DRIVE FINE THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I WILL HAVE DIFFICULTIES ACCELERATING, THE VEHICLE ALSO HAS STALLED. I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE BY A LOCAL MECHANIC AND THE RESULTS CAME BACK NORMAL, I HAD A DIAGNOSTIC TEST DONE BY THE DEALERSHIP AND THE TEST CAME BACK NORMAL AS WELL AND THAT THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH THE VEHICLE HOWEVER THERE WAS THIS PERSISTENT ISSUE OF NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE AND STALLING. THE DEALERSHIP HAD MY VEHICLE FOR APPROXIMATELY 2 WEEKS TRYING TO FIGURE OUT WHAT WAS WRONG WITH THE CAR AND HAS NOW CONCLUDED THAT IT IS THE THROTTLE BODY(I BELIEVE THIS IS A WILD GUESS) AND WILL COST ME 1400 DOLLARS. I HAVE SEEN RECENT RECALLS ON JEEP COMPASSES THAT HAVE VERY SIMILAR ISSUES THAT ARE FOR THE 2016 AND 2017 MODELS THAT INVOLVE THE CRANK SHAFT SENSOR. I AM VERY CONCERNED I BELIEVE THERE IS SOMETHING SERIOUSLY WRONG WITH THE WAY THE VEHICLE BUILT AND EVEN IF I HAVE THE THROTTLE BODY FIXED ITS REALLY A DEEPER ISSUE BECAUSE ALL DIAGNOSTIC TESTING IS COMING BACK NORMAL.
