Consumer Description

I have always been a jeep owner, Grand Cherokee, I decided to go with the Jeep Compass and i haven't had any issues until the beginning of the month. I changed the battery and still had the issue that the car wouldn't start. I brought to Chrysler Jeep and they changed the secondary battery and they reset it so i don't get the A symbol with exclamation point. Picked up my car from oil change, on my way i stopped at a traffic light at an intersection, it stalled on me. Completely turned off, the radio worked, the windows were able to go up and down. after a minute it turned back on. I brought it back to the dealer the next day, they had it for 4 hours and they said they didn't find anything wrong with the vehicle and they reset everything and i should be fine now. That Sunday, it stalled on me 3 times and this time it took 5-10 minutes before it restarted. It was the scariest moment in my life, i had my 6year old in my car and this car would not start. I brought it back to jeep on Monday the 25th and they still have it and they cant figure out what is wrong. they called me and said that they drove it and there is nothing wrong, i told them i do not want the car back until they fix it. now its Tuesday, and they still cant figure out the problem, this is a lease vehicle and they wont even give me a loaner until they find the problem. It just shuts off when you stop always at a traffic light. I told them the 3 things that popped up and they looked at me like im crazy...Service hill start system, service esc system and dynamic steering torque service req'd, they said no codes came up, then they said 2 codes came up but they still cant figure it out. It is dangerous for your car to stall without notice especially when you are leasing it expecting for it to be ok and no issues.
