NHTSA Complaint #11378209 — 2018 JEEP COMPASS

1) 10/29/2020 I WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY WITH THE CRUSE CONTROL ON WHEN THE CAR MADE A LOUD THUMP, JUMPED OUT CRUSE CONTROL, SHUT OFF, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AFTER SITTING FOR A BIT, CAR STARTED BUT WOULD NOT GO OVER 25 MPR BACK TO TOWN. AT THE SIGNAL LIGHT, WHEN STOPPED, THE CAR STARTED TO GO IN REVERSE. WAS ABLE TO STOP IT AGAIN, AND GOT IT TO DEALERSHIP. THEY SAID IT NEEDED A COMPUTER UPDATE. 2) 12/06/2020 1 MONTH LATER, DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY HOME FROM WORK AT NIGHT, CAR DID IT AGAIN, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I WAS ABLE TO GET THE CAR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER SITTING, IT STARTED, BUT WOULD NOT RUN OVER 25 MPR. AND THIS TIME AT SIGNAL LIGHT STOPPED, THE CAR SURGED FORWARD AND ALMOST HIT THE CAR IN FRONT. THE CAR IS GOING BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP ASAP. THIS CAR IS VERY DANGEROUS
