Prior to the failure of the rear drive axles there were 2 instances of the 4WD lamps coming on. Reset the lever and light went out.Another instance had the ABS light come on.After several miles the light went off. The next morning while driving to the independent repair shop the car completely stopped on a Blvd in the middle of traffic.Luckily I was not rear ended by another vehicle.The car needed to be towed to the shop. Upon inspection by the tech was the rear drive axles had become corroded and needed to be replaced.As well as the backing plates.The vehicle is 8 years old and has 62,000 miles.
Rear frame is rusted to the point that it is unsafe to drive as per Monroeville, PA Chrysler/ Jeep. I included some images and the cost of repair from the dealership. I am having the repairs done at this dealership. Please extend the warranty to Jeep Compasses. Mine is a 2015 and it is unsafe to drive and is costing me more money to replace tires.
I WAS PROCEEDING THROUGH A GREEN LIGHT. A CAR COMING FROM MY LEFT RAN THEIR RED LIGHT AT FULL SPEED (APPROX. 30 MPH) AND CRASHED INTO MY CAR. MY ENTIRE FRONT END WAS DAMAGED. IT WAS PUSHED IN AT LEAST 10-12" ACCORDING TO THE RESPONDING FIRE DEPARTMENT & EMT'S MY AIRBAG SHOULD HAVE ABSOLUTELY GONE OFF AND IT DID NOT. I WAS TRANSPORTED TO THE HOSPITAL FOR NECK PAIN. LUCKILY NOTHING IS BROKEN BUT I HAVE SEVERE NECK, BACK, AND HEAD PAIN ALMOST A FULL WEEK LATER. I AM STARTING PHYSICAL THERAPY NEXT WEEK. *TR
