NHTSA Complaint #11156087 — 2018 JEEP COMPASS

CONSUMER BOUGHT CAR IN AUGUST 2018 (MEMORIAL WEEKEND). UPON OBTAINING THE CAR, CONSUMER NOTICED THAT CAR APPEARED TO ATTEMPT TO STALL WHEN BREAK; HOWEVER, THE ENGINE WOULD KICK BACK IN AND NOT STALL. LAST WEEK (END OF NOVEMBER 2018) CONSUMER WAS DRIVING THE CAR AND STOPPED AT AN INDIVIDUALS HOME TO PICK THEM UP WHEN THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF WITH THE STOP/START SYSTEM WARNING LIGHT CAME ON. CONSUMER TURNED OFF VEHICLE AND RESTARTED THE CAR; LIGHT WENT OFF AND CAR RAN AS NORMAL. CONSUMER WAS DRIVING THE CAR TODAY 12/5/2018 WHEN STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT THE CAR STALLED AND RESTARTED, PUTTING IT INTO A "POWER SAVING MODE" WHERE THE RADIO DID NOT WORK AND PARKING BREAK LIGHT CAME ON ALONG WITH TRANSMISSION LIGHT, AND START/ STOP LIGHT. UPON GETTING THE CAR TO THE DESTINATION (HALF A MILE) THE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. CONSUMER TURNED OFF CAR AND ATTEMPTED TO TURN IT BACK ON. CAR INSTRUMENTS TURNED ON; HOWEVER, WOULD WAS OBSERVED CLICKING AND WOULD NOT TURN OVER. THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT IS STILL ON AND THE START/STOP IS ILLUMINATED. I HAVE READ MANY OF THE "COMPLAINTS" FOR THIS VEHICLE AND THEY ARE CONSISTENT WITH THE SAME THINGS I HAVE BEEN EXPERIENCING.
