Consumer Description

MY 2017 JEEP COMPASS IS VERY FAULTY AND HAS BEEN IN THE DEALERSHIP MAINTENANCE AREA FOR THE SAME ISSUE MULTIPLE TIMES. I HAVE ATTACHED SUPPORTING DOCUMENTATION OF THE THREE DIFFERENT TIMES IN THE SHOP FOR THE SAME/SIMILAR ISSUES. THE FOLLOWING CONCERNS ARE INCLUDED IN THIS DOCUMENTATION: (1) THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF WHILE IN MOTION DRIVING ON A CITY STREET, THE PARKING BREAK ENGAGED AND PREVENTED THE VEHICLE FROM MOVING FURTHER IN THE MIDDLE OF THE CITY STREET. (2) THE VEHICLE REFUSED TO START WHEN PARKED IN A GARAGE. ONCE PRESSING THE START BUTTON MULTIPLE TIMES, THE VEHICLE STARTED AND MULTIPLE SERVICE LIGHTS CAME ON, INCLUDING "SERVICE ESP" AND "SERVICE 4WD". THIS HAS HAPPENED MULTIPLE TIMES OVER THE LIFE OF OWNING THE VEHICLE (ONLY 23 MONTHS AND ABOUT 18,000 MILES). I HAVE INCLUDED TWO SERVICE RECORDS (THE FIRST TIME AND MOST RECENT TIME IT WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALERSHIP), I DO NOT HAVE THE THIRD RECORD WITH ME AS THE VEHICLE IS IN FOR MAINTENANCE CURRENTLY AND THE OTHER INVOICE IS IN THE VEHICLE, HOWEVER YOU CAN SEE RECORD OF THE SECOND VISIT IN THE RECORD FROM 4/9/2019. I AM CONCERNED FOR MY SAFETY AND THE SAFETY OF OTHER DRIVERS GIVEN MY HISTORY WITH MY VEHICLE AND HOPE TO GET THIS PERMANENTLY FIXED INSTEAD OF PUTTING A BAND AID ON IT AS THE DEALERSHIP HAS DONE. *DT*JB
