NHTSA Complaint #11205766 — 2018 JEEP COMPASS

I WAS DRIVING 44MPH HEADED TO A RED LIGHT WITH A 4 LANE HIGHWAY COMING THE OTHER DIRECTION. THE JEEP SHUT OFF WHILE I WAS GOING 44MPH AND I HAD NO STEERING, NO BREAKS, NO POWER AT ALL. I KEPT HITTING RESTART AND FINALLY THE ENGINE KICKED BACK ON, I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP D'AMBROSIO IN DOWNINGTOWN, PA. WHEN JEEP SHUT OFF WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON SAYING "LOW OIL PRESSURE". NO LIGHTS APPEARED PRIOR TO JEEP SHUTTING OFF WHILE GOING 44MPH. I ALMOST DIED! WHILE AT DEALERSHIP I WAS TOLD BY SERVICE MANAGER THAT THE PARTS GUY'S WIFE HAD THE SAME THING HAPPEN TO HER WHILE DRIVING HER JEEP JUST STOPPED ON THE HIGHWAY. EASTER SUNDAY MY BROTHER TOLD ME HIS FRIEND CALLED HIM AND TOLD HIM THAT HIS WIFE'S JEEP SHUT OFF WHILE SHE WAS DRIVING ON A HIGHWAY. THERE IS A SERIOUS ISSUE WITH THESE VEHICLES.
