2018 JEEP COMPASS Engine Problems

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE HER DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED HOWEVER, THE VEHICLE RESTARTED. THE CONTACT STATED ALL THE INSTRUMENT CLUSTER WARNING INDICATOR LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO LARRY H. MILLER SOUTHWEST HYUNDAI ALBUQUERQUE (8800 LOMAS BLVD NE, ALBUQUERQUE, NM 87112, (505) 404-0136) TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT AN UNKNOWN WIRE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 20,000.

MULTIPLE TIMES I WOULD TRY TO START THE VEHICLE AND THE BATTERY WOULD BE DEAD. AFTER JUMPING THE CAR OFF IT WOULD OPERATE WITHOUT A PROBLEM. I TOOK THE CAR TO A REPAIR SHOP AND HAD IT CHECKED BUT NO PROBLEMS WERE FOUND. ON 02/01/2021 THE CAR AGAIN WOULD NOT START. I HAD A MECHANIC JUMP THE CAR OFF AND I LET IT IDLE TO BUILD UP THE BATTERY. AFTER A FEW MINUTES THERE WAS A NOISE AND THEN SMOKE STARTED COMING OUT FROM UNDER THE HOOD. THEN FIRE!

VEHICLE CONSUMES TOO MUCH OIL AND WILL FAIL TO HAVE ENOUGH OIL PRESSURE AND EMERGENCY PARKING BRAKE WILL ENGAGE RANDOMLY WHILE DRIVING AND CAR WILL STOP. OIL PRESSURE LIGHT WILL ENGAGE ALSO AND CAR CAN FAIL TO START. TOOK TO DEALERSHIP TO REPLACE PCV VALVE SINCE I HAD SIMILAR ISSUE WITH MY 2015 CHRYSLER 200 AND THE PCV VALVE WAS CULPRIT. DEALERSHIP ADVISED TO RECONFIGURE PCM AND COME BACK FOR OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AFTER 1500 MILES. TOOK BACK TO DEALERSHIP AFTER THE 1500 MILES ON 2-2-21AND VEHICLE WAS FOUND TO BE LOW ON OIL. DEALERSHIP JUST TOPPED IT OFF AND SAID IT WAS "OKAY, NO FURTHER WORK NEEDED AT THIS TIME". THIS IS A DANGER AND THE CAR IS CONSUMING TOO MUCH OIL. THE PCV VALVE OR ENGINE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND HESITATED TO ACCELERATE. THE CHECK ENGINE AND AUTO START/STOP WARNING LIGHTS WERE ILLUMINATED. THE CONTACT COASTED THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. AFTER RESTARTING THE VEHICLE, THE VEHICLE REVVED UP ABNORMALLY. AFTER TURNING AND RESTARTING THE VEHICLE THREE TIMES, THE VEHICLE OPERATED AS DESIGNED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO QUALITY MOTORS (2022 W MAIN ST, INDEPENDENCE, KS 67301, (620)331-6090) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE CYLINDER COMPRESSION TEST SHOWED THAT THE NUMBER 2 CYLINDER WAS FAULTY HOWEVER, THE MECHANIC WAS UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE STALLING. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE CONTACT MENTIONED NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V670000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING) AS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE FAILURE HOWEVER, THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. THE VEHICLE STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS MAKING A RIGHT OR LEFT TURN, THE VEHICLE STALLS FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. THE CONTACT MANAGED TO COAST THE VEHICLE TO THE SHOULDER OF THE ROAD APPLIED THE EMERGENCY BRAKE TURN THE VEHICLE OF AND BACK ON WHICH THE VEHICLE RESUMED BACK TO NORMAL. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED INTERMITTENTLY. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN UNKNOWN DEALER WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE SWAY BAR, COMPRESSOR OIL CONSUMPTION WERE FAULTY AND NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. HOWEVER, THE FAILURE RECURRED. NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V670000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING) AS A POSSIBLE SOLUTION TO THE FAILURE HOWEVER THE VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED. NO LEAKS PRESENT FROM DEALER NOR CONTACT. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AS A CASE NUMBER WAS PROVIDED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 60,000.

MERGING ONTO THE HIGHWAY THE CAR SUDDENLY TURNED OFF AND THE PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED. I WAS ABLE TO PUT ON HAZARDS BUT MY VEHICLE WAS STOPPED ON AN ON RAMP AND WOULDN'T START UP RIGHT AWAY. LOOKING INTO THE PROBLEM A LITTLE MORE AFTER I WAS ABLE TO GET HOME, THIS CAR IS KNOWN TO HAVE AN EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE. I CHANGED MY OIL MYSELF 4 MONTHS AGO AND AM WORKING FROM HOME, THERE HAS BEEN MINIMAL DRIVING. WHEN I CHECKED THE OIL, IT BARELY REACHED THE DIPSTICK. CALLED THE DEALERSHIP AND ASKED WHAT JEEP IS DOING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM, THE RESPONSE WAS TO BRING MY CAR IN FOR AN OIL CHANGE (WHICH IT DOESN'T NEED) AND TO BRING THE CAR BACK EVERY 500 MILES FOR AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. THAT IS ALL JEEP IS DOING ABOUT THIS PROBLEM. THERE IS NO WARNING THAT YOUR OIL IS LOW, YOUR...

I STARTED MY CAR LIKE NORMAL AND REVERSED AND DROVE FORWARD DOWN STREET. I NOTICED THE CAR KEPT MAKING JOLTING MOTIONS. I CAME TO A STOP SIGN AND AS I BEGAN TO TAKE OFF AND WAS IN THE ROADWAY THE PARKING BRAKE ENGAGED AND THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDALS LOCKED UP AND THE CAR SLOWLY CAME TO A STOP. I PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND TRIED TO DISENGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE. IT TURNED OFF BUT THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDALS WERE STILL JAMMED. I TURNED THE CAR OFF AND LET IT SIT FOR A MINUTE AND PRESSED THE POWER BUTTON TO TRY AND RESTART THE CAR. IT STARTED MAKING A NOISE AS IF THE BATTERY WAS DEAD AND SHUT BACK OFF. I LET IT SIT FOR A BIT LONGER AND TRIED AGAIN. THIS TIME IT DID THE SAME THING BUT EVENTUALLY TURNED ON. I THEN PUT THE CAR IN...

CAR STALLED GOING DOWN THE FREEWAY WITHOUT WARNING, TAKEN TO DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD LOW ON OIL, OIL CHANGED AND NO WORD OF OIL CONSUMPTION PROBLEM, ASKED AND GOT AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST AT DEALER TO WHICH THEY SAID 1 QUART PER 2000 MILES IS NORMAL. HAD INDEPENDENT OIL CONSUMPTION TEST DONE AT MASONS AUTOMOTIVE AND THE CAR IS BURNING 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY 747 MILES. NOW A RECALL TO REPROGRAM THE COMPUTER. THE CAR IS ALSO ON ITS 3RD SET OF BATTERIES DUE TO BATTERY FAILURE, BOTH BATTERIES HAD FAILED LEAVING US STRANDED AS THE BATTERIES FAIL INSTANTLY. DROVE THE CAR AND PARKED IT, CAME BACK LITTLE LATER AND THE CAR WON'T START ALL WARNING AND ERROR LIGHTS START FLASHING AND CAN'T STOP THEM, HAD TO TOW THE CAR TO THE DEALER

DRIVING AT NIGHT THE CAR STALLED OUT WITH NO WARNING LIGHT OR ANYTHING JUST COMPLETELY SHUT OFF TURNED IT BACK ON THEN DID IT AGAIN AND AGAIN LUCKILY I WAS ABLE TO GET HOME CAUSE I WASN'T VERY FAR THEN THE NEXT DAY TOOK IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. I WAS TOLD THAT THE CAR HAS AN ISSUE WITH OIL CONSUMPTION BUT I HAD DONE AN OIL CHANGE NOT EVEN 2000 MILES AGO AND I COULDN'T BELIEVE HOW THERE WAS NO WARNING I WAS LUCKY IT WAS AT NIGHT AND THERE WAS NOBODY AROUND DRIVING BEHIND ME AND NOW I'M WAITING 1500 MILES TO GET IT CHECKED OUT AGAIN AND IF IT DOES IT AGAIN THEY SAID I'LL GET A NEW ENGINE I HOPE THIS ISSUE GETS RESOLVED CAN'T BELIEVE THE QUALITY OF THESE CARS IS SO BAD

STOP AT A STOP SIGN. I WENT TO PROCEED AND THE ENGINE TURNED OFF. TOOK ABOUT 2-3 MINS TO GET IT TO RESTART. THE STOP/START INDICATOR DISPLAYED FOR SERVICE ON THE SCREEN AND A YELLOW LIGHT WITH AN A POPPED ON AND THEN WENT OFF.

CAR BURNS A LOT OF OIL, WILL SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. WILL ALSO SAY SERVICE TRANSMISSION WHEN IDLING FOR 5 MINUTES & NOT ALLOW ME TO DRIVE.

VEHICLE RANDOMLY OVERHEATS THEN GETS BACK TO NORMAL. VARIABLE VALVE ACTUATOR FAILED. AND ALSO CAUSING MULTIPLE CYLINDER MISFIRE. SWISHING NOISE OCCURS AS WELL.

MY VEHICLE IS STALLING AND THE OIL ON THE VEHICLE IS BEEN CONSUME RAPIDLY I TOOK MY CAR AND TOLD THE DEALER THAT THIS IS NOT NORMAL THEY ASKED ME TO PLEASE TAKE IT EVERY TIME THE ENGILE OIL LIGHT WILL COME ON WHICH IT'S VERY OFTEN. ENGINE OIL MONITORS FAIL TO ENGAGE PRIOR TO ENGINE STALLING- I WAS GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY WHEN MY CAR STARTED STALLING LUCKLY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME AND I REACHED OUT TO THE DEALER AT CHRYSLER IN ELGIN IL - THEY HAD ME DROP MY VEHICLE AND OFFER ME A RENTAL. CLAIMING THAT THEY WILL CONTACT CHRYSLER - JEEP TO GET MY ENGINE REPLACE OR FIXED THE ISSUE SINCE THEY MENTION. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE A NUMEROUS CUSTOMER WITH THE SAME ISSUE VEHICLE AT RISK OF SUDDEN ENGINE STALLING WITHOUT WARNING,' THE JEEP COMPASS CLASS ACTION LAWSUIT ALLEGES. BUT TODAY I WAS...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT VARIOUS SPEEDS, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING, DUE TO AN OIL LEAK. THE CONTACT HAD TAKEN THE VEHICLE TO SPITZER CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM CLEVELAND (13001 BROOKPARK RD, BROOK PARK, OH 44142) ON SIXTEEN SEPARATE OCCASIONS FOR VARIOUS OIL CONSUMPTION TESTS HOWEVER, THERE WAS NO RESOLUTION TO THE ISSUES. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE FAILURE WAS A KNOWN ISSUE. THE MANUFACTURER REFERRED THE CONTACT BACK TO THE DEALER AND OFFERED NO FURTHER ASSISTANCE. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 10.

MAKING A LEFT TURN TO ENTER EXPRESSWAY MY VEHICLE PARKING BRAKE CAME ON BY ITSELF STALLED VEHICLE WAS ABLE TO FINISH THE TURN AND PULLED OFF TO SIDE OF ROAD. WEEK LATER TODAY PULLED UP TO RED LIGHT PARKING BRAKE CAME ON VEHICLE STALLED TOOK A WHILE TO RESTART . I AM FEARFUL OF GETTING INTO AN ACCIDENT. TAKING TO DEALERSHIP ON TUESDAY DEC.15 2020.

PCV VALVE IS FAILING. CAR IS BURNING OIL AND CAUSING LOW OIL PRESSURE. CAR WILL STATE LOW OIL PRESSURE WITH THE LIGHT COMING UP ON THE DASH FOR LOW OIL PRESSURE NOTIFICATION. CAR WILL POWER DOWN AND ENGAGE PARKING BRAKE AND DIE. THIS HAPPENS WHILE CAR IS DRIVING. CAR TAKES MULTIPLE TIMES TO START BACK UP BECAUSE DOES NOT HAVE ENOUGH OIL. HAD SIMILIAR DIAGNOSED ISSUE COVERED BY CHRYSLER IN ANOTHER CAR THAT WAS PURCHASED. SAME SYMPTOMS AND IT WAS PCV VALVE FAILURE. THIS IS DANGEROUS. CHRYSLER FIAT SHOULD ISSUE RECALL

WHILE DRIVING AT APPROX 30MPH THE VEHICLE STALLS AND MESSAGE CENTER READS "TO SHIFT, VEHICLE MUST BE STOPPED" THEN STATES "SHIFT TO P THEN DESIRED GEAR. THE RESTART IS ROUGH. VEHICLE IS 2.5YRS OLD WITH 45.5K MILES.

I WAS ON THE WAY HOME FROM PURCHASING A USED 2018 JEEP COMPASS WITH 24000 MILES AND THE VEHICLE DIED TWICE WITHIN A COUPLE OF MINUTES WHEN WE PULLED OFF THE I INTERSTATE TO GET SOME FOOD. IT WAS WHEN WE WERE JUST COASTING INTO OUR DESTINATION. THE COMPASS'S PARKING BRAKE LIGHT THEN CAME ON AND A DASH MESSAGE READ "VEHICLE CANNOT SHIFT WHILE MOVING" OR SOMETHING TO THAT EXTENT. IT THEN TURNED OVER MULTIPLE TIMES BEFORE STARTING BUT DROVE FINE FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE DRIVE HOME. HOPING THIS DOES NOT CONTINUE THROUGH THE LIFE OF THE VEHICLE.

THE VEHICLE STALLED AFTER PULLING OUT OF A PARKING SPOT. THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVING FINE BEFORE BEING PARKED. THE VEHICLE WAS TELLING US TO PUT IT IN PARK TO START AND IT TOOK 3 TRIES TO START IT.

THE VEHICLE STALLED WHEN GOING THROUGH AN INTERSECTION AFTER COMING TO A STOP. THE START/STOP WAS ENABLED AND VEHICLE STARTED UP THEN STALLED WHEN IN INTERSECTION. THE VEHICLE STARTED UP AFTER A FEW TRIES TO DRIVE OUR OF INTERSECTION.

AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT A STOP SIGN, I STARTED TO TURN LEFT AND MY EMERGENCY BREAK ENGAGED, CAR STALLED, WOULD NOT START, ADVISERS ME TO PUT IN PARK AND HIT START/STOP BUTTON. I DID SO AND THEN THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD PRESSURE BENEATH IT WHERE I COULD NOT BRAKE AND BEGAN TO ROLL BACK NEARLY HITTING CAR BEHIND ME. FOR 5-10 MINUTES CAR WAS STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROA. TURNED CAR COMPLETELY OFF AND ENGINE LIGHT AND RED LIGHTING LIGHTS CAME ON. AFTER MY TOOLE ATTEMPTS TO RESTART CAR AND DISENGAGE EMERGENCY BRAKE, CAR STARTED AND COULD DRIVE MYSELF BACK HOME. I'M HESISTANT TO EVEN TAKE THE CAR IN, BECAUSE I'VE READ OF MULTIPLE REPORTS OF THIS OCCURRING TO OTHER DRIVERS WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I DON'T FEEL SAFE WITH THE CAR LOCKING UP AND FAILING TO WHERE I CAN EVEN BRAKE OR PULL TO...

THIS CAR GOES THROUGH A LOT OF OIL. IT STALLS WHEN THE OIL LIGHT IS ON.

THIS CAR NEEDS TOO MUCH OIL AND STALLS ALL THE TIME!!!! WHEN IS JEEP GOING TO FIX THIS!!! I AM SENDING THE 500 APPROX. NUMBER OF COMPLAINTS TO MY LAWYER TO HOLD ON TO SO WHEN I GET IN AN ACCIDENT WE WILL KNOW JEEP DID NOTHING TO HELP THESE PEOPLE!! JEEP, PLEASE FIX THIS PROBLEM. HOW MANY ACCIDENTS BEFORE IT IS WORTH IT TO YOUR COMPANY TO TAKE CARE OF THIS IN ADVANCE OF ACCIDENTS?

MY VEHICLE WILL NOT START ON THE FIRST TRY HAVE TO TRY ABOUT 7 TIMES. THE RADIO HAS STOPPED WORKING, AND I KEEP GETTING RANDOM ERROR MESSAGES POPPING UP ON MY SCREEN.

THE ENGINE SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE INSTANCE AND EACH TIME IT HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET. THE INFORMATION IN THIS REPORT IS FOR THE MOST RECENT INCIDENT, BUT THIS WAS NOT THE FIRST TIME THIS OCCURRED.

THE U CONNECT DISPLAY PANEL >GPS/ RADIO ETC. SHUTS DOWN BY ITSELF WHILE I'M DRIVING THE VEHICLE( IN MOTION) ,THE SCREEN GOES BLACK FOR NO APPARENT REASON, THEN RESTARTS ITSELF, ALSO WHILE I'M DRIVING AT ABOUT 35-40 MPH THE ENGINE OR MOTOR ( NOT SURE) MAKES A LOUD SOUND LIKE ITS DOWN SHIFTING ON ITS OWN, ALMOST LIKE ENGINE BRAKING?

WHILE IN MOTION THE ELECTRIC EMERGENCY BRAKE WILL INGAGE ON ITS ON CAUSE THE CAR TO SUDDENLY SLOW DOWN AND STOP, VERY DANGEROUS ESPECIALLY OF IN TRAFFIC. ANOTHER ISSUE WHILE IN MOTION AT RANDOM TIMES THE ' ENGINE' OR TRANSMISSION'? FEELS LIKE IT SLIPS? AND MAKES IT HARD FOR THE CAR TO ACCELERATE ENGINE LIGHT TURNS ON AND SAYS SERVICE ENGINE. I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND STOP THE CAR RESTART SO THE TRANSMISSION DOESN'T HEAT UP

MY 2018 JEEP COMPASS WILL STALL WHEN STOPPING OR SLOWING DOWN INCREASING MY CHANCES OF CRASHING. IT WILL TAKE MORE THAN 10 MINS TO RESTART AND IT WILL STRUGGLE TO TURN BACK ON. WE HAVE BROUGHT IT IN TWICE TO DEALERSHIP SHOP AND THEY SAY THEY FIXED IT BUT IT STILL HAS NOT BEEN FIXED.

THE ENGINE USES EXCESSIVE OIL AND THE TRANSMISSION DOES NOT SHIFT PROPERLY

2018 JEEP COMPASS WITH AROUND 40,000 MILES WILL SHUT OFF AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS, NORMAL DRIVING SPEEDS 30-70 MPH, LEAVING THE POWER STEERING, ELECTRICAL, AND ENGINE DISABLED UNTIL THE CAR IS PARKED, POWER IS OFF FOR A FEW MINUTES THEN THE CAR WILL TURN BACK ON. THIS HAS HAPPENED ABOUT A DOZEN TIMES TO THIS VEHICLE IN THE LAST FEW WEEKS.

I TOOK IN MY VEHICLE ABOUT A MONTH AGO TO GET A FIX ON A SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT ISSUE. IT SEEMED TO BE A PROBLEM WHEN I HAD MY AC ON AND THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT AND SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT WOULD TURN ON. I WOULDN'T BE ABLE TO ACCELERATE AND IT WOULD MAKE A JERKING MOVEMENT WHEN I PUT MY CAR INTO DRIVE. I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN ABOUT A MONTH AGO AND THEY SAID THAT THE PROBLEM HAD BEEN FIXED. WELL TODAY I GET IN MY CAR TO DRIVE ON THE HIGHWAY IN THE DMV AND AS I'M LEAVING THE STREET I LIVE ON MY CAR STOPS WITH NO WARNING. I LET IT REST FOR A FEW MINUTES AND THEN TURN IT ON AGAIN; IT HESITATES TO TURN ON MAKING A WEIRD SOUND THEN TURNS ON ABOUT 10 SECONDS LATER. I PUT IT IN DRIVE AND IT STARTS TO DRIVE...

CAR KEEPS STOPPING AT LIGHT AND NOT WANTING TO TURN BACK ON

TWICE MY VEHICLE HAS LOST POWER WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN. ELECTRICAL SYSTEMS SEIZE UP, EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGES WITHOUT ME SETTING IT AND UNABLE TO ROLL DOWN WINDOWS.

TODAY WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY, MY CAR STARTED TO JERK WHICH THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT POPPED UP WITH THE TRANSMISSION LIGHT SAYING IT NEEDED TO BE SERVICED. ONCE THAT APPEARED IN THE MIDDLE OF ME DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY MY CAR FAILED TO ACCELERATE. IT STALLED ON ME IN THE MIDDLE OF THE HIGHWAY WHERE EVERYONE IS DRIVING 65 MPH AND IT GAVE ME NO TIME TO MOVE OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. I IMMEDIATELY TURNED MY EMERGENCY LIGHTS ON. ONCE THE CAR CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP IT JERKED AND THE POWER ON THE CAR WENT OFF, SO IT PUT IT ON EMERGENCY BRAKES AND SAID TO STEP ON BRAKE AND PUSH START. I TURNED THE CAR COMPLETELY OFF AND TURNED IT BACK ON, SO I BEGAN TO DRIVE AGAIN WITH CAUTION BUT THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WAS STILL THERE. I DROVE FOR A MILE...

CAR STALLS AFTER STOPPING AND WILL NOT RESTART AS IF ITS NOT GETTING GAS. THE OIL PRESSURE GAUGE WILL NOT REGISTER. THE CAR HAS ALSO SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING SLOWLY (LESS THAN 10MPH) AND ACTS THE SAME WAY.

2018 JEEP COMPASS STALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF BUSY HIGHWAYS. EXTREMELY UNSAFE. JEEP SAYS ENGINE BURNS OIL TOO FAST. MANY TIMES THERE IS NOT EVEN A WARNING LIGHT. HAS HAPPENED SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR. HAPPENS EVERY 1000-2000 MILES. JEEP SAID IT'S A SAFETY FEATURE AND TO JUST ADD OIL. THAT DID NOT FIX THE PROBLEM AND IS NOT A SOLUTION TO THIS DANGEROUS ENGINE THAT MANY OTHER PEOPLE ARE EXPERIENCING. THERE NEEDS TO BE A RECALL BEFORE SOMEONE GETS KILLED.

CAR STRUGGLES TO START, CAR GAS PEDAL ACTS LIKE IT REVS FORWARD AS IF IM PUSHING THE GAS, CAR HAS GONE THROUGH 2 BATTEIRS AND DOES NOT TURN ON. IT IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP THIS HAS HAPPENED PLENTY OF TIMES. BACK UP CAMERA SOMETIMES DOES NOT TURN ON, AND AUTOMATIC STOP SHUTS DOWN.

MY VEHICLE SOUNDS LIKE IT'S DOWN SHIFTING WHEN DRIVING BETWEEN 40 & 50 MILES AND IT HAS CUT OFF ON ME SEVERAL TIMES WHEN TUNING THE CORNERS AND SOMETHING ALWAYS SOUNDS LIKE IT'S RATTLING. I'VE TAKEN IT SEVERAL TIMES TO THE DEALERSHIP AND BECAUSE NO CODES POP UP THEY WANT TO CHARGE ME TO INSPECT IT. I'VE COMPLAINED ABOUT THESE ISSUES SINCE I'VE PURCHASED IT. THERE HAVE BEEN TIMES WHEN ALL OF MY FUNCTIONS LIGHT UP OR IT TELLS ME MY KEY IS NOT IN THE VEHICLE WHEN IT'S IN PLAIN SITE. THIS HAPPENS WHEN I'M DRIVING ON THE STREET OR FREEWAY.

CAR STALLS OUT AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON. WAS STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND WHEN TURNED GREEN THE CAR WOULD NOT MOVE WHEN GAS PEDAL WAS PRESSED.

VEHICLE HAS RANDOMLY SHUTS DOWN WHILE DRIVING STREET OR HIGHWAY. SERVICE TRANSMISSION LIGHT COMES ON WHILE DRIVING AND CAR DECELERATES WHICH IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. BACK UP CAMERA INSTRUMENT PANEL INTERMITTENTLY DOES NOT WORK. I AM SURE THERE IS MORE BUT AT THIS TIME THIS IS ALL I CAN THINK ABOUT AS MY DAUGHTER, SON-IN-LAW AND GRANDBABIES ARE STUCK ON THE SIDE OF THE ROAD 250 MILES FROM HOME. MOST RECENT OCCURRENCE TODAY WITH TRANSMISSION LIGHT.

THE CAR STALLS AT TURNS AND SAYS "LOW OIL PRESSURE" JUST BOUGHT THIS CAR JUL 03 2020.

I BOUGHT A 2018 JEEP COMPASS IN 2019 IT HAD ABOUT 10 THOUSAND MILES ON IT. 4 MONTHS LATER I'M HEADING TO WORK AND CAR STALLS OUT. I STARTED BACK UP AND MADE IT TO MY LOCAL GARAGE THEY CHECKED THE OIL AND THERE WAS NOT A DROP OF OIL IN IT. THEY SAID IT WAS THERE FAULT THEY NEVER PUT OIL IN WHEN I PURCHASED. 4 MONTHS LATER COMPLETELY OUT OF OIL AGAIN. AND HERE WE ARE TODAY 2 MONTHS AFTER THE LAST SERVICE CALL MY IS GOING THREW ALMOST AN ENTIRE TANK OF OIL EVERY 2 MONTHS. AND MY LOCAL DEALERSHIP WHERE I PURCHASED THE CAR KEEPS MAKING ME DO OIL CONSUMPTION TEST...AND MY CAR HAS COMPLETELY RAN OUT OF OIL 3 TIMES AND I HAVE HAD 2000 MILES MORE TO GO BEFORE I NEEDED AN OIL CHANGE. I ACTUALLY RUN OUT OF OIL IN MY WAY BEFORE...

STOP/START NOT AVAILABLE, BACKUP CAMERA GOES OUT OR DOES NOT WORK, ENGINE IS SUPER HOT HIGH HEAT, CHECK TRANSMISSION LIGH, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT, AMBER STOP START LIGHT,PUTTING IN REVERSE AND CAR WILL DIE OUT OR HESITATE, ONLY 14,000 MILES 2 YEARS OLD ALL THESE SYMPTONS CAME ON THIS WEEK. TRULY FRUSTRATING 2 YEAR OLD CAR AND ITS REDICULOUS HOW BAD THIS IS. I WILL NEVER BUY THIS COMPASS OR JEEP AGAIN.

CAR WILL INTERMITTENTLY CUT OFF WHILE DRIVING CAUSING YOU TO HAVE TO PUT IN PARK, TURN OFF AND THEN RESTART CAR. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON MORE THAN ONE OCCASION. TODAY 8.12 I WAS MAKING A LEFT HAND TURN AND IN THE MIDST OF THE TURN THE CAR CUT OFF WHICH AUTOMATICLLY ENGAGED THE PARKING BREAK. I HAD TO DISENGAGE THE BREAK, PUSH CAR TO MEDIUM TO AVOID ONCOMING TRAFFIC, PUT IN PARK AND CYCLE THE CAR OFF. I WAS ABLE TO IMMEDIATELY RESTART THE CAR BUT THE ENTIRE PROCESS TAKES A FEW MINUTES.

THE ENGINE BURNS AN EXCESSIVE AMOUNT OF OIL AND THEN STALLS WHILE RUNNING - THIS IS A HUGE SAFETY ISSUE. THE FIRST TIME THIS HAPPENED NO OIL LIGHT CAME ON AND IT ONLY FLASHED A FEW TIMES ON THE SECOND INSTANCE. ONLY 43000 MILES ON THE ENGINE AN STILL UNDER WARRANTY BUT JEEP IS REFUSING TO ADDRESS THIS ISSUE. ONLY 3000 MILES SINCE LAST OIL CHANGE AND HAD TO BRING TO DEALERSHIP BECAUSE OF STALLING AND WAS TOLD IT NEEDED OIL (3+ QUARTS). THIS IS A KNOW ISSUE TO JEEP AND THEY ARE PUTTING PEOPLE'S LIVES AT RISK. JEEP IS CLAIMING THAT THIS IS NORMAL. THEY REFUSE TO ADDRESS BECAUSE THE ISSUE IS BIG AND THEY REFUSE TO PAY TO FIX THIS. THIS HAPPENED TO MY DAUGHTER SEVERAL TIMES WHEN DRIVING. THE DEALER SAID IT IS A KNOW ISSUE AND JEEP IS SAYING NOT COVERED UNDER WARRANTY. THEY CHARGED US...

WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY 65 MILES AN HOUR CAR COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS ENGAGED. MESSAGE POPPED UP ON DASH STATED TO SHIFT CAR IN TO PARK AND RESTART. I WENT FROM 65 MILES AN HOUR TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD IN THE MATTER OF SECONDS A SEMI ALMOST CRASHING INTO ME. PULLED OVER RESTARTED THE CAR, STARTED DRIVING TO THE DEALERSHIP WHEN IT HAPPENED TO ME AGAIN ON THE WAY. LEFT CAR AT DEALERSHIP WAS TOLD THE NEXT DAY I NEEDED TO PURCHASE AN OIL CHANGE. DEALERSHIP SAID THERE WAS NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK AND NO OTHER PROBLEMS WERE FOUND. I AM 1000 MILES AWAY FROM AN OIL CHANGE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THESE CARS CONSUME OIL EXCESSIVE AMOUNTS THAT MEANS 5 QUARTS OF OIL HAS BEEN CONSUMED IN BETWEEN MY OIL CHANGES. I DO NOT TRUST DRIVING THIS CAR MYSELF OR WITH MY FAMILY....
