Consumer Description

AS I AM DRIVING THE CAR STALLS. THIS HAPPENS A LOT WHEN I SLOW DOWN THEN PRESS THE GAS AGAIN, ALSO WHEN I TURN. THIS HAPPENS EVERYDAY ON THE HIGHWAY AND SIDE STREETS, THIS HAS LEAD TO ALMOST GETTING INTO MULTIPLE CAR ACCIDENTS. BE ADVISED YOU ARE ONLY ALLOWED TO REPORT ONE DATE OF OCCURRENCE, THIS IS A DAILY ISSUE. THERE IS A RECALL FOR THE 2016 COMPASS THAT DESCRIBES THE ISSUE MY CAR IS HAVING TO THE T. IT DOES NOT INCLUDE MY VIN NUMBER, BUT I THINK THIS SHOULD BE RE-EVALUATED AS THIS IS A VERY DANGEROUS ISSUE. BE ADVISED THE RECALL S89 STATES, 'THE CRANKSHAFT OR CAMSHAFT SENSOR MAY ONLY WORK INTERMITTENTLY, CAUSING THE ENGINE TO STALL.' PLEASE SEE THE ATTACHED FOR PROOF OF RECALL DETAILS. *DT*JB
