NHTSA Complaint #11194961 — 2018 JEEP COMPASS

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY 180. THE VEHICLES SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT, TRANSMISSION LIGHT, ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE, AND SERVICE HILL HOLDER TURNED ON. I STOPPED THE VEHICLE IN THE SHOLDER. I CHECKED THE TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE OIL AND BOTH WERE GOOD. I TRIED PUTTING THE VEHICLE ON DRIVE AND THE ELECTRONIC PARKING LIGHT CAME ON AND STOPPED THE VEHICLE FROM GOING ON DRIVE. THE LIGHT STAYED ON FOR THE ELECTRONIC BRAKING SERVICE. I WAS ABLE TO TAKE IT OFF THE BRAKE STILL WITH THE SERVICE LIGHTS ON. I WAS GOING TO SHIFT IT INTO DRIVE WHEN IT MADE A STRONG POPPING AND SCREECHING SOUND ON THE TRANSMISSION WHEN PLACED ON REVERSE. I MOVED IT TO DRIVE AND IT DID THE SAMETHING. I TRIED GIVING IT GAS AND THE D FOR DRIVE WOULD JUST BLINK AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. I WAITED 30 MINUTES AND TRIED MOVING IT BUT NOTHING HAPPENED. I SWITCHED THE GEAR FROM PARKING TO DRIVE HEARING THE POPPING SOUND AS I SHIFTED FROM THE P R N D. I WAS ABLE TO DRIVE IT FOR 10-15 MINUTES AND THE TRANSMISSION STARTED HEATING UP FROM 180F TO 192F. WHILE LEAVING THE VEHICLE STOPPED FOR A WHILE THE TRANSMISSION TEMP DID COOL OFF BUT I WILL HAVE IT SERVICED SINCE I AM STILL STOPPED AT THE HIGHWAY WITH MY FAMILY WHILE WRITING THIS.
