2018 JEEP COMPASS Engine Problems

MY BRAKE ENGAGED YESTERDAY WHILE TRAVELING ON A CITY STREET. I WAS STOPPED AT A LIGHT. I PUSHED THE GAS TO MAKE MY VEHICLE ACCELERATE WHEN THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN. MY VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. THE BRAKE WAS ENGAGED. AFTER CONFIRMING NOTHING HAD HIT THE BRAKE BUTTON. I PUSHED THE BRAKE RELEASE. THE VEHICLE STILL WOULD NOT GO FORWARD. THERE WERE IMAGES ON THE SCREEN THAT INCLUDE AN A!, ENGINE SYMBOL, ETC. I PUSHED THE BUTTON TO RESTART THE CAR. IT WOULD NOT START. THE BRAKE WAS ENGAGED AGAIN. THIS IS THE THIRD TIME THIS HAS HAPPENED TO MY VEHICLE. IT IS VERY DANGEROUS WHEN THIS HAPPENS ON A MAJOR STREET DURING PEAK HOURS OF TRAFFIC. DURING ONE OF THE TIMES MY VEHICLE RESPONDED LIKE THIS. THE OIL LIGHT WAS ON. I WENT TO THE CLOSEST FACILITY TO GET MY VEHICLE CHECKED. THEY SAID THERE WAS NO OIL IN MY...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE STOPPED IN TRAFFIC THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND DROVE TO JONES CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (LOCATED AT 1510 BELAIR RD, BEL AIR, MD 21014, (410) 879-6400). THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THERE WAS NO OIL IN THE ENGINE. THE DEALER ADDED OIL AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE ENGINE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. ON FOUR SEPARATE OCCASIONS, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE DEALER FOR THE SAME FAILURE. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THERE WAS NO EVIDENCE OF AN OIL LEAK. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 17V670000 (ENGINE AND ENGINE COOLING). THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 16.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE ENGINE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND DROVE TO WORK. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SUBURBAN CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OF FARMINGTON HILLS (38123 W 10 MILE RD, FARMINGTON HILLS, MI 48335, (248) 476-7900) WHERE NO OIL WAS DISCOVERED ON THE DIPSTICK. THE DEALER PERFORMED AN OIL CHANGE AND THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO CHECK BACK AFTER 1,000 MILES. WHILE DRIVING AND MAKING A RIGHT TURN, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE ENGINE WENT INTO LIMP MODE AND THE SPEED WOULD NOT EXCEED 35 MPH. THE FAILURE OCCURRED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT CHECKED THE OIL AND FOUND NO OIL ON THE DIPSTICK AGAIN. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MILOSCH'S PALACE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (3800 S LAPEER RD, LAKE ORION, MI 48359, (248) 393-2222) WHERE THEY STATED THAT THE 2.4 LITER ENGINE CONSUMED OIL...

THIS CAR BURNS OIL WHICH I WAS NOT TOLD ABOUT BY THE DEALER WHEN PURCHASING. THAT IN AND OF ITSELF IS A PROBLEM (I HAVE SINCE BEEN TOLD TO CHECK IT EVERY 1000 MILES EVEN THOUGH THE MANUAL SAYS IT CAN GO 7500 W/O CHANGING), BUT THE REAL PROBLEM IS WHEN IT GETS LOW THE CAR JUST TURNS OFF. NO WARNING. LUCKILY I WAS IN A RESIDENTIAL AREA WHEN IT HAPPENED, ALTHOUGH IT WAS AN INTERSECTION. I WAS WITH MY 3 YEAR OLD AND REQUIRED HELP FROM A PASSERBY TO HELP PUSH IT TO THE CURB. I COULD HAVE BEEN DRIVING ON A FREEWAY WITH NO SHOULDER AS OFTEN HAPPENS ON HIGHWAY 1 WHERE I LIVE. THIS FEATURE IS DANGEROUS! SOMEBODY IS GOING TO GET HURT BECAUSE OF IT. IT IS CURRENTLY IN THE SHOP FOR SOME OTHER PROBLEM WHERE IT WONT START, WHICH IS ALSO DANGEROUS IN IT'S OWN...

WHY HAS THIS NOT BEEN RECALLED. HAD MY JEEP AT THE DEALER YESTERDAY, FOR ANOTHER OIL CHANGE, ABOUT 2000 MILES BEFORE I WAS DUE. THE LAST OIL CHANGE WAS AROUND 9500 MILES. THEY SAID, THERE WAS NO OIL IN MY CAR WHEN HE CHECKED. IT HAS JUST UNDER 13,000 MILES ON IT AND FOR THE SECOND TIME IN 5 DAYS, THE ENGINE JUST SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING. SO I HAVE NOW ALMOST GOTTEN REAR-ENDED TWICE. I HAVE TO DRIFT TO THE SIDE, PUT THE CAR IN PARK, SHUT IT OFF ENTIRELY, THEN RESTART, YESTERDAY IT TOOK 3 TRIES TO GET IT TO RESTART. I WAS TOLD, I NEED TO DRIVE ANOTHER 2000 MILES AND COME BACK SO THEY CAN CHECK MY DIP STICK, WHICH THEY MARKED YESTERDAY. IRONICALLY WHILE I WAS CHECKING OUT, THERE WAS A WOMAN THERE, PICKING UP HER COMPASS FROM THEM AFTER A WEEK, BECAUSE THEY WERE...

MY SERVICE TRANSMISSION AND CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND OFF EVERY FEW WEEKS I TOOK IT TO MY LOCAL JEEP DEALER THEY TOLD ME MULTIPLE TIMES THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH MY 2018 COMPASS WHEN I KNOW INDEED IT IS I SMELL COOLANT ALL THE TIME THEY SAY THEY DON'T MY ENGINE AND TRANS LIGHT COMES IN AND OFF THEY HAVE NO CODE I CAUGHT IT ON VIDEO THEY BOTH LIGHTS WERE ON AND I WAS ASKED IF I'D LIKE TO BRING IT BACK IN I SAID YES THE DAY I GO IN OF COURSE THE LIGHTS ARE OFF BUT NOW THEY HAVE A CODE HE SAYS TO ME OH YOUR TRANSMISSION JUST NEEDS TO BE UPDATES BUT THE CODES THAT I GOT BACK STATED THAT IT WAS THE TORQUE CONVERTER

OIL BURNING UP WAY BEFORE OIL CHANGE IS DUE. CAUSED MY CAR TO STALL IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITH MY THREE MONTH OLD INFANT IN THE BACK SEAT.*DT THE STALL OCCURRED WHILE MAKING A RIGHT TURN AT AN INTERSECTION SPEED OF APPROXIMATELY 10-15 MPH. MILEAGE WAS ABOUT 12925. WHILE MAKING THE TURN A QUICK CHIME AND OIL PRESSURE LOW CAME ON AND DISAPPEARED AND THE CAR IMMEDIATELY STALLED. COME TO FIND OUT THE OIL ON DIPSTICK WAS 1MM. NO WARNINGS ABOUT IT. NOT DUE FOR OIL CHANGE FOR ANOTHER 1600 MILES. *JB

CONSUMER STATED IT WAS AROUND 8,000 MILES, IT STALLED DRIVING ON A THRUWAY IN NEW YORK TRAFFIC, PARKING BREAK ENGAGED AND IT CAME TO FULL STOP, HAD TO DEPRESS BRAKE AND RESTART CAR. MY JEEP HAS BEEN AT THE DEALER FOR A WEEK WHILE THEY FIGURE OUT WHAT IS WRONG WITH IT. THEY SAID THE OIL IS NOT PUMPING OUT. AT MY LAST OIL CHANGE THEY SAID THE JEEP IS BURNING OIL LIKE CRAZY WITH NO WARNING ABOUT LOW OIL. IT HAS 13,000 MILES ON IT AND ALSO INTERMITTENTLY SHUTS OFF WHILE DRIVING,I HAVE TO PULL OVER AND THE PARKING BREAK ENGAGES. THEN RESTART IT, IT ALSO INTERMITTENTLY WON'T START AT ALL. THEN AFTER A FEW HOURS IT WILL START BUT RUNS REALLY ROUGH. ANOTHER ISSUE IS WITH WHAT SOUNDS LIKE THE SUSPENSION IN THE FRONT RIGHT OF THE VEHICLE. IT FEELS VERY UNSAFE TO DRIVE AS I HAVE TWO...

JEEP COMPASS IS A SAFETY HAZARD DEATH TRAP; I CANNOT BELIEVE THERE IS NOT A RECALL ON IT! IT LITERALLY BURNS OIL DOWN TO NOTHING & WITH NO WARNING WHATSOEVER THE PARKING BRAKE ENGAGES, THE DASHBOARD LIGHTS UP AND IT JUST STOPS, WHILE DRIVING, ON THE ROAD, IN TRAFFIC! THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE! I HAVE CHANGED THE OIL REGULARLY (ACTUALLY EARLY) AND AFTER 3,000 MILES IT IS EMPTY?? ARE YOU SERIOUS? FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED THE DEALER CONDUCTED AN "OIL CONSUMPTION" TEST, WHAT A JOKE. OBVIOUSLY IT IS OVER-CONSUMING OIL BECAUSE IT JUST SEIZED UP ON ME WHILE DRIVING & MAKING A TURN IN FRONT OF OTHER CARS AND THE DIPSTICK WAS CLEAR, NOT ONE DROP OF OIL LEFT! MADE SPECIAL TRIPS TO THE DEALER SO THEY COULD TOP OFF THE OIL AFTER 1,500 MILES (THEIR SOLUTION TO THIS KNOWN PROBLEM) AND IT HAPPENED A SECOND TIME AFTER...

FIRST OFF. I HAVE A 2018 JEEP COMPASS THAT'S I GOT A FEW WEEKS AGO AND I'M NOTICING NOW THAT MY BRAKES ARE ALREADY TERRIBLY GRINDING, THE ENGINE GETS WAY TOO HOT EVEN THOUGH THE INDICATOR IS ALWAYS NEUTRAL AND NEVER MOVES EVER. ALSO THE MPG IS ABSOLUTE CRAP AND I THINK IT HAS TO DO WITH THE ENGINE SYSTEM ITSELF CAUSING PROBLEMS. I LOST 45 MILES ACCORDING TO THE INDICATOR AND REALLY ONLY WENT 12 MILES BACK FROM WORK. THAT SHOULDN'T BE RIGHT.

2018 JEEP COMPASS STALLED WHILE WIFE WAS ATTEMPTING TO CROSS 6 LANES OF TRAFFIC. NO WARNING LIGHTS OR INDICATORS DISPLAYED AT ALL. OIL LEVEL IN THE CAR AFTER 3000 MILES DID NOT EVEN REGISTER ON DIPSTICK, SO CAR BURNED 3+ QTS OIL. *DT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING, THE VEHICLE STALLED AND A MESSAGE DISPLAYED INSTRUCTING THE DRIVER TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN PARK, SHIFT GEARS, ENGINE SHUTTING DOWN. THE DRIVER WAS NOT ABLE TO COAST TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD, BUT WAITED TEN MINUTES BEFORE RESTARTING THE VEHICLE. AFTERWARDS, THE VEHICLE WAS DRIVEN TO HIS RESIDENCE. THE FOLLOWING DAY, THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO MERRICK DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP OF WANTAGH (3614 SUNRISE HWY, SUITE A, WANTAGH, NY 11793, (516) 868-4400) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS LOW ON OIL. THE TECHNICIAN ADDED OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 36,000.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE FREEWAY AT ABOUT 65 MILES PER HOUR, WITHOUT WARNING THIS JEEP STALLS, PUTTING MY WIFE IN A POTENTIALLY FATAL OR INJURIOUS ACCIDENT SITUATION. DEALERSHIP SAID THEY KNOW AND ACCEPT AS NORMAL THIS BRAND NEW CAR BURNING A QUART OF OIL EVERY 2000 MILES AND THAT IF THE CAR GETS LOW ON OIL IT WILL QUIT RUNNING, BUT THEY NEVER TELL THE OWNER OF THE CAR, THEY ONLY SAY COME BACK IN 5000 MILES FOR NEXT OIL CHANGE, MEANWHILE THE CAR STARTS STALLING AT 3-4000 MILES

VEHICLE STALLS AFTER CAR HAS STOPPED AT STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN. VEHICLE WILL PROPERLY TURN OFF DUE TO AUTO SHUT OFF. REMOVE FOOT FROM BRAKE, VEHICLE STARTS AND BEGINS TO MOVE. VEHICLE WILL THEN STALL QUICKLY AFTER IN INTERSECTION. OPERATOR NEEDS TO PUT CAR IN PARK, TURN VEHICLE BACK ON AND BEGIN MOVING. PROBLEM HAS REPEATEDLY HAPPENED DURING CITY DRIVING AT STOPS SIGNS.

PURCHASED BRAND NEW WITH 11 MILES AND THE VEHICLE IS BURNING ONE GALLON OF OIL BETWEEN OIL CHANGES. CHRYSLER SAYS IN NORMAL SPECS. ENGINE AT RISK OF LOCKING UP IF NOT ADDING OIL AND CAN'T TRUST OIL LIGHT. WAS INFORMED TO NOT TRUST THE OIL LIGHT BY THE DEALERSHIP. BUT TOLD TO TRUST IT BY CHRYSLER CARES.*DT*JB *DT

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE AND DROVE TO HERITAGE CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM OWINGS MILLS (LOCATED AT 11212 REISTERSTOWN RD, OWINGS MILLS, MD 21117, (866) 771-8050) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE ENGINE OIL WAS LOW. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY BEING TESTED FOR OIL CONSUMPTION. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT INCLUDED IN NHTSA CAMPAIGN NUMBER: 18V524000 (ELECTRICAL SYSTEM). THE MANUFACTURER WAS INFORMED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 34,000.

I WAS ABOUT TO PULL OUT OF THE PARKING LOT WHILE IN DRIVE WHEN THE ENGINE SERVICE LIGHT CAME UP TELLING ME TO PULL MY CAR OVER AND COME TO A STOP BECAUSE THE VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF. TOOK IT TO THE DEALER THEY SAID NOTHING WAS WRONG AND ERASED ALL MY ERROR MESSAGES AFTER IT WAS SCANNED. AS A STANDARD PROCEDURE OF JEEP THEY TOLD ME TO PICK UP THE VEHICLE AND DRIVE IT FOR 1,000 MILES AND IF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT APPEARED TO BRING IT IN AND THEN THEY WILL FIX IT. I FIND THIS IS UNSAFE TELLING ME TO GO DRIVE MY VEHICLE AND THERE IS A POSSIBILITY IT MAY TURN OFF WHILE I AM ON THE HIGHWAY.

WE BOUGHT THE JEEP NEW WITH 8600 MILES ON IT. 4000 MILES AFTER OUR FIRST OIL CHANGE AT THE DEALER, THE ENGINE OIL LIGHT CAME ON WHILE TURNING A CORNER. I CHECKED THE OIL LEVEL TO WHICH I NEEDED TO ADD THREE QUARTS TO BRING IT BACK TO NORMAL. WE HAVE 20,000 MILES ON OUR CAR. THIS SEEMS TO BE A LOT OF OIL. THERE ARE NO OIL SPOTS OR DRIPS UNDER OUR CAR AND NO SMOKE IS COMING OUT FROM THE MUFFLER. ENGINE BAY IS CLEAN. I SEARCHED ONLINE AND FOUND MANY OTHER NEW JEEP OWNERS WITH THE SAME COMPLAINT. IS ANYTHING BEING DONE ABOUT THIS?

I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ONE MORNING AND MADE IT ABOUT 1 MILE FROM HOME BEFORE MY CAR TURNED OFF AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED. I HAD OWNED MY VEHICLE FOR ABOUT 4 MONTHS AT THIS POINT, AND THE ENGINE OIL PRESSURE LIGHT ENGAGED. I HAD AROUND 3,000 MILES AT THIS POINT. I STARTED MY VEHICLE AND MADE IT ANOTHER 1/2 MILE BEFORE THE CAR TURNED OFF AND BRAKE ENGAGED AGAIN. STARTED THE CAR AND MADE IT THE 10 MILES THAT I HAVE TO DRIVE TO WORK. THE SAME THING HAPPENED FOR THE NEXT 3 DAYS. LUCKILY I WAS NOT ON A HIGHWAY; THIS COULD HAVE BEEN VERY DANGEROUS! AFTER THE 3RD DAY OF THIS HAPPENING, I WENT ONLINE TO RESEARCH. APPARENTLY THE NEWER JEEP ENGINE DRINKS OIL. AT THAT POINT, MY HUSBAND HAD TO ADD 3 QUARTS OF OIL! AFTER ONLY 3,000 MILES! I CALLED CHRYSLER THE NEXT DAY...

EVERY TIME I AM DRIVING MY CAR MY CAR WILL DO WHAT I CALL A "SPAZ OUT" MOMENT. THE DASH WARNING LIGHTS ALL COME ON AND A LOUD DING BEGINS. MY CAR DASH LIGHTS UP LIKE A CHRISTMAS TREE AND EACH NOTICE POPS UP: TRANSMISSION NEEDS SERVICE, 4 WHEEL DRIVE NEEDS SERVICED. TRACTION SYSTEM NEEDS SERVICE, EMERGENCY BREAK NEEDS SERVICE. THEN THEY ALL GO OFF THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT REMAINS ON. I AM VERY WORRY FOR MY SAFETY AND OTHER IF THIS VEHICLE LOCKS THE WHEELS WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGH WAY. MOST MY DRIVING IS ON THE HIGH WAY AT THE SPEED OF 70MPHS.

I STOPPED AT THE STOP LIGHT AND THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WITH THE NORMAL FUNCTION OF AUTO START/STOP BUT WHEN I TOOK FOOT OF THE BRAKE THE CAR STALLED OUT IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. AFTER WHICH THERE WAS LOSS OF POWER STEERING AND THE PARKING BRAKE WOULD STAY ENGAGED. THE LOSS OF POWER STEERING MADE IT REALLY DIFFICULT TO STEER THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD TO SAFETY.

I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE ON A CITY STREET AT 45 MILES AN HOUR WHEN THE ENGINE TURNED OFF WITH NO WARNING. THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED UP WHEN THE VEHICLE TURNED OFF AND COASTED THE PARKING BREAK ENGAGED AT 15 MILES AN HOUR FORCING ME TO HARD BREAK AND ALMOST GET REAR ENDED WITH CHILDREN IN THE VEHICLE. I HAD MY VEHICLE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE IT WAS PURCHASED. THEY TOLD ME IT WAS A SAFETY FEATURE FOR THE JEEP FOR THE ENGINE TO SHUT OFF WHEN THE OIL IS LOW. THE DEALERSHIP IS CLAIMING THAT IT'S WITH IN CHRYSLER'S SPECS THAT THIS ENGINE (2.4 MULTI-AIR 9 SPEED) CAN BURN 1 QUART OF OIL EVERY THOUSAND MILES. THIS JEEP ONLY HAS 3,043 MILE ON IT. IT IS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE FOR ENGINES TO SHUT OFF WHILE THE VEHICLE IS IN MOTION. THIS NEEDS TO BE FIXED IT CAN...

WHILE CAR IS IN MOTION ENGINE WILL STALL AT RED LIGHTS / INTERSECTIONS, CAR WILL STATE:PUT CAR IN DRIVE BUT CAR IS IN DRIVE, LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING WILL ILLUMINATE WHEN TURNING RIGHT THEN DISAPPEAR, CHECK ENGINE LIGHT WILL FLASH THEN TURN OFF. CAR MAY STALL, LOSE POWER, EMERGENCY BRAKE WARNING, NO GAS PEDAL RESPONSE. I RESEARCHED THIS PROBLEM AND IT APPEARS THAT THE CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR COULD BE FAULTY...CAR IS 2018 WITH 21,000 MILES...CPS SHOULD NOT BE FAULTY AT THIS LOW MILEAGE/AGE OF VEHICLE...SEEMS TO BE A COMMON COMPLAINT ACROSS JEEP COMPASS VEHICLES OF MULTIPLE YEARS.....RECALL JEEP VEHICLES FOR FAULTY CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR....HAPPENS AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS AS WELL, CAR LOSES POWER AND STEERING ABILITY.....DANGEROUS

PISTON EXPLODED OUT OF MOTOR WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE. VEHICLE HAS 7,769 MILES WHEN THIS HAPPENED. NO DUMMY LIGHTS APPEARED PRIOR, VEHICLE WAS IN 'NEUTRAL' TEMP RANGE, HAD AN OIL CHANGE JUST AT 5500 MILES AND SYNTHETIC OIL WAS PUT IN AS DEALER RECOMMENDED. I'D LIKE TO ADD THAT CHRYSLER WARRANTY HAS HUNG UP AND DENIED ANY OTHER ISSUES. I'M GLAD TO SEE OTHER HAVE ENGINE PROBLEMS AND I AM SEEKING LAWSUITS. ANY HELP ON THIS WOULD BE VERY HELPFUL AS I'M NOT THE ONLY ONE RELATED TO KNOWN OIL ISSUES OR BLOWN MOTORS! THIS IS SUCH A SAFETY RISK I AM GLAD THAT MY FAMILY WAS NOT WITH ME. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY WHEN SOMETHING LIKE THIS HAPPENS THAT NO ONE YOU CALL FOR YOUR FACTORY WARRANTY AND GET THEIR THIRD PARTY CALL CENTERS THAT THEY DON'T TELL YOU ALL PROPER INFORMATION, NOR ARE THEY NOTING ACCOUNTS PROPERLY.

JEEP COMPASS 2018 MILEAGE 5188 - ON FRIDAY, JUNE 21, 2019 I WAS JUST LEAVING MY HOME TO GO TO WORK AT 7:45 AM AND I WAS ABOUT 1.5 MILES FROM MY HOME WHEN MY CAR JUST CEASED ON A MAJOR ROADWAY AND THE DASHBOARD SAID OIL PRESSURE LOW. I HAD OTHER CARS BEHIND ME AND WAS VERY LUCKY NO ONE HAD HIT ME FROM BEHIND AND I DID NOT GET SERIOUSLY HURT. I IMMEDIATELY CALLED DEALER HEALY CHRYSLER JEEP WHERE I BOUGHT MY CAR AND SPOKE TO A SERVICE MANAGER NAMED JEFF ROSCINO AND HE TOLD ME THAT I SHOULD TAKE THE CAR TO THE NEAREST DEALER TO ME AND HAVE MY OIL CHANGED. HE TOLD ME THAT THIS CAR'S MOTOR WAS INTRINSICALLY DESIGNED TO BURN THIS AMOUNT OF OIL. I HAD BROUGHT THE CAR TO YONKERS CHRYSLER JEEP WHICH WAS NEAREST DEALER TO ME AND THEY DID AN...

I WAS STOPPED FOR A RED LIGHT AT A BUSY MULTI LANE INTERSECTION. WHEN LIGHT TURNED GREEN I ACCELERATED AND NOTHING HAPPENED. I TURNED VEHICLE OFF THEN ON BY STOP/START BUTTON SEVERAL TIMES UNTIL VEHICLE ENGAGED. VERY SCARY. IT JUST BASICALLY STALLED. SEVERAL OTHER THINGS WERE AFFECTED SUCH AS INSTRUMENT CLUSTER INDICATIONS THAT WERE NEVER ON BEFORE AND WILL NOT TURN OFF WHEN I GO ON/OFF OPTIONS FOR THOSE DISPLAYS. RUNNING LIGHTS ALSO SUDDENLY WILL NOT WORK. UPSETTING TO SAY THE LEAST. VERY DANGEROUS. I AM NOT SURE BUT THINK THE START/START FEATURE MAY BE INVOLVED AS I HAD IT ON. IT WAS AROUND 90 DEGREES OUTSIDE TEMP. VEHICLE HAS ABOUT 11,000 MILES ON IT.

THIS HAPPENED THREE TIMES OVER THE PAST TWO WEEKS. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING MY CAR IN HEAVY TRAFFIC AND CAR WILL THROW ITSELF IN EMERGENCY BRAKE MODE AND ENGINE WILL TURN OFF. LOSS OF STEERING CONTROL IS GONE AS WELL. HAVE BEEN EXTREMELY LUCKY TO NOT GET IN AN ACCIDENT. DROPPED CAR OFF TO DEALER WHO BLAMED IT ON "LOW OIL." DUE TO "LOW OIL" LEVELS HOWEVER CAR IS ONLY 7 MONTHS OLD AND JUST 4K MILES. HE RECOMMENDED I CHANGE THE OIL EVERY 750 MILES! 750! A STANDARD CAR IS EVERY 5,000 MILES. THE FACT THAT MY OIL CHANGE COULD BE THE DETERMINING FACTOR BETWEEN MY ENGINE TURNING OFF MID DRIVE AND GETTING IN AN ACCIDENT IS ABSURD. WHILE RESEARCHING THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF SIMILAR CASES WITH THE SAME CAR. PEOPLE HAVE GOTTEN IN ACCIDENTS DUE TO THE CAR STALLING ON HIGHWAYS AND INTERSECTIONS. NOT SAFE TO DRIVE. DO...

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS, MAKING TURNS, OR SLOWING DOWN FOR A STOP SIGN, THE VEHICLE STALLED. SEVERAL WARNING INDICATORS, INCLUDING THE ABS AND TRACTION CONTROL, ILLUMINATED. ALSO, THE GEAR SHIFTER BLINKED RED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO ARRIGO DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM SAWGRASS (5901 MADISON AVE, TAMARAC, FL 33321) WHERE THE SERVICE MANAGER TEST DROVE THE VEHICLE AND THE FAILURE WAS DUPLICATED. THE FAILURE WAS DETERMINED TO BE A MALFUNCTIONING COMPUTER MODULE. THE COMPUTER MODULE WAS REPLACED; HOWEVER, THE STALLING FAILURE CONTINUED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE VEHICLE WAS REPAIRED PER SEVERAL UNKNOWN RECALLS AND TECHNICAL SERVICE BULLETINS. RECENTLY, WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED, THE PUSH TO START BUTTON WAS PRESSED, BUT THE VEHICLE FAILED TO TURN OFF. THE CONTACT WAS CONCERNED ABOUT CARBON MONOXIDE POISONING AS THE VEHICLE WAS LEFT RUNNING FOR OVER AN HOUR WITHOUT WARNING. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED...

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE UNDER NORMAL OPERATING CONDITIONS ON A BUSY STREET THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY AUTONOMOUSLY SHUT DOWN ALMOST CAUSING A CATASTROPHIC MULTI CAR COLLISION. VEHICLE COULD NOT BE RESTARTED AND NEEDED TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP FOR SERVICE. STILL AWAITING CORRECT DIAGNOSIS FROM DEALER.

HAVING ELECTRICAL ISSUES WITH SOUND SYSTEM SHUTTING OFF AND NOT COMING BACK ON, ALSO TOOK CAR IN FOR REGULAR MAINTENANCE OIL CHANGE AND WAS TOLD MY CAR HAD VERY LITTLE OIL ALMOST OUT AND NO WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AT ALL AND IT WASN'T EVEN TIME FOR MY OIL CHANGE, I WAS EARLY. AND NOW MY START/STOP LIGHT CAME ON AND DEALER STATES NO PROBLEM IT JUST WANT WORK PROPERLY.. GAS MILEAGE IS HORRIBLE AND I HAVE TO HAVE OIL CHANGED AND CHECKED MORE OFTEN DUE TO KNOWN ONGOING ISSUES WITH THIS MODEL. I HAVE ONLY 17K ON MY VEHICLE AND PROBLEM AFTER PROBLEM. DONT BUY JEEP COMPASS.

BOUGHT BRAND NEW. WITH 4700 MILES PUT ON IT, IT HAD LOST OIL AND STALLED SEVERAL TIMES. MY WIFE WAS DRIVING. WE TOOK IT STRAIGHT TO THE DEALERSHIP WHERE WE BOUGHT IT. COME TO FIND OUT, IT BURNS OIL AT AN ACCELERATED RATE. MANY VEHICLES WITH THIS MOTOR, 2.4L MULTIAIR, ARE HAVING THIS PROBLEM. ENGINES ARE HAVING TO BE REPLACED, WHEN THEY ARE STILL NEW. WHEN RUNNING LOW ON OIL, THE VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUTS DOWN WITH NO WARNING, LIGHTS, INDICATING ITS OUT OF OIL AND THAT COULD BE VERY DANGEROUS. IF ON A HIGHWAY OR WHEREVER THERE IS HEAVY TRAFFIC. DEFINITELY SEE A BAD ACCIDENT HAPPENING. A NEW CAR SHOULD NOT BE BURNING OIL AT AN EXCESSIVE RATE. PLEASE LOOK INTO THIS.JEEP/FCA SEEM LIKE NOTHING IS BEING DONE ABOUT THIS. I CALLED JEEP RIGHT BEFORE WRITING THIS, AND THE CUSTOMER SERVICE REP HASN'T HEARD ABOUT IT. THE DEALERSHIP WHERE I...

I PURCHASED THE COMPASS BRAND NEW AND HAVE ONLY 4,600 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. WHEN I WAS PULLING UP TO A STOP SIGN AT A VERY BUSY INTERSECTION, THE "LOW OIL PRESSURE" LIGHT CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE STALLED AND WOULD NOT MOVE. DEALERSHIP SAID THAT THIS IS "HOW THE ENGINE IS DESIGNED TO FUNCTION" AND RESOLVED WITH AN OIL CHANGE. THE OIL SHOULD NOT BE SO LOW THAT ENGINE CUTS OFF. ALSO, THIS "SAFETY FEATURE" IS INCREDIBLY DANGEROUS AS IT GIVES NO WARNING AND CUTS OUT WHILE DRIVING. THIS NEEDS TO BE CORRECTED!!

ENGINE BURNING WAY MORE OIL THAN IT SHOULD, THE VEHICLE THEN WILL SEIZE AND SHUT DOWN. THIS CAN BE AT ANY POINT WHILE DRIVING AND GIVES NO WARNING AS TO WHEN IT WILL HAPPEN. JEEP WILL NOT TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY ABOUT THIS HAZARDOUS ISSUE IN THEIR ENGINES YOU SHOULDN'T HAVE TO CHECK YOUR OIL ALL THE TIME TO MAKE SURE IT WON'T HAPPEN AGAIN. THE DEALERSHIP WILL HAVE YOU COME IN FOR A CONSUMPTION TEST AND EVEN PUTTING A CLAIM INTO JEEP CORPORATE, THEY WILL NOT ACKNOWLEDGE HOW BAD OF A PROBLEM THAT IS. THEIR NEEDS TO BE A RECALL OR FIX SOON OR THEIR WILL BE LAWSUITS UNFORTUNATELY WHEN SOMETHING HAPPENS.

THE VEHICLE BURNS THROUGH OIL VERY FAST. THE DAY BEFORE MY LAST OIL CHANGE THE CAR SHUT OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD AFTER A MESSAGE POPPED UP SAYING PULL OVER. I WAS ON A CURVE ON A DIRT ROAD GOING SLOW AND DIDN'T EVEN HAVE ENOUGH TIME TO PULL OVER. WHEN TRYING TO RESTART THE CAR AND ALL KIND OF ALERTS FLASH. FINALLY THE CAR STARTED, THE NEXT DAY THE OIL WAS CHANGED AT THE DEALER, THEY DON'T CHECK THE LEVEL BEFORE THEY CHANGE THE OIL THEY SAY. THEIR FIX, DIELECTRIC GREASE ON THE DOOR. NOW AT THE EXACT MILEAGE THE NEXT OIL CHANGE IS DUE, WE OIL CHECKED BEFORE GOING TO THE DEALER AND IT IS SO LOW IT BARELY SHOWED ON THE DIP STICK. A CAR WITH 22K MILES SHOULD NOT RUN OUT OF OIL.

SINCE WE PURCHASED THIS CAR, IT HAS UNEXPECTEDLY COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN WHILE DRIVING. THIS HAS HAPPENED APPROXIMATELY 20 TIMES. LAST YEAR, IT WAS TOWED TO A DEALERSHIP IN THE SHEEPSHEAD BAY AREA OF BROOKLYN, NEW YORK. WE WERE TOLD THAT IT WAS A SAFETY FEATURE THAT SHUT THE ENGINE DOWN WHILE DRIVING IF THE VEHICLE WAS LOW ON OIL. IT WAS NOT AS ASCERTAINED BY THAT DEALERSHIP. THIS "SAFETY FEATURE" HAS PUT MY FAMILY'S LIFE IN IMMINENT DANGER AS THIS HAS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING 60MPH ON THE GRAND CENTRAL PARKWAY AND BELT PARKWAY IN NEW YORK. ON SUNDAY, MAY 26, 2019, MY SON WAS DRIVING WITH 4 PEOPLE IN THIS CAR AND ONCE AGAIN IT SHUT DOWN WHILE TRAVELING 55MPH. FORTUNATELY, HE WAS ABLE TO EXIT THE HIGHWAY BEFORE HE WAS REAR ENDED AVOIDING TRAGEDY. HE PROCEEDED TO DRIVE TO A FRIEND'S HOUSE ON 168TH STREET IN MANHATTAN WHILE UTILIZING...

DRIVING ON THE EXPRESSWAY AND THE VEHICLE JUST STALLED. ALMOST WAS INVOLVED IN AN ACCIDENT TRYING TO GET TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD. AFTER SEVERAL MINUTES VEHICLE STARTED AGAIN. CALLED DEALERSHIP AND WAS ADVISED TO CHECK THE OIL AS THIS VEHICLE USES OIL. VEHICLE HAS 5612 MILES ON IT. OIL WAS ADDED AND THEN ADVISED I NEEDED TO BRING IN FOR OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. ONLY THING I WAS ADVISED WAS THAT MUST BRING IN VEHICLE FOR NEXT 2000 MILES THEN AGAIN 2000 MILES MORE. SO AT THIS TIME, I AM DRIVING A VEHICLE THAT STALLS AND NOT GIVEN A REASON AND IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MYSELF AND PASSENGERS. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE FOR MYSELF, AND ANY ONE ELSE THAT IS ON THE ROAD WITH ME WHEN VEHICLE JUST DECIDES TO STALL WITHOUT WARNING.

THE JEEP STALLS, SHUTS OFF AND TURNS ON ITS OWN E BRAKE WHEN IT RUNS LOW ON OIL. BUT IT RUNS OUT OF OIL EVERY 2000 MILES!!!!!!! IVE TAKEN IT TO JEEP AND THEY SAY, OH THATS NORMAL !?!?!?!?! IVE ALMOST BEEN HIT SEVERAL TIMES GOING AROUND A ROUND A BOUT AND HAVING IT LOCK UP LIKE THAT BECAUSE ITS LOW ON OIL - AND IM GOING BROKE BUYING OIL CHANGES ALL THE TIME THIS CAR IS HORRIBLE, ALSO THE RADIO COMPLETELY AND RANDOMLY TURNS OFF, DISPLAY EVERYTHING - WHILE DRIVING!

THE ENGINE BURNS OIL AT AN EXTREMELY FAST RATE. EVERY 3,000 MILES THERE IS NO OIL LEFT IN THE CAR AND THE CAR WILL STALL OUT WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING. IT IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD AND SOMEBODY IS GOING TO GET KILLED IF THIS HAPPENS AT THE WRONG TIME. *DT CONSUMER STATED OIL CONSUMPTION TEST WAS DONE BUT DEALER TOLD CONSUMER IT WAS NORMAL TO STALL.*JB

THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED FIVE TIMES DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. EVERY TIME THE VEHICLE STALLED IT HAS BEEN HOT OUT. THE CAR STALLS AND SEVERAL ERROR LIGHTS FLASH; PARKING BREAK, HILL-STOP, OIL-CHANGE, ETC.. THE CAR THEN WON'T TURN OFF, BUT JUST STAYS IN ON MODE BUT WILL NOT MOVE. JEEP WILL NOT ADDRESS THE ISSUE. THEY SAY THAT BECAUSE THEY CAN'T DUPLICATE IT, THE CAR IS 'FINE'. I HAVE ALMOST BEEN HIT AT LEAST A DOZEN TIMES. THIS IS A KNOWN AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS ISSUE AND THEY WILL NOT ADMIT IT.

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...

I WAS DRIVING 44 MPH HEADED TO A RED LIGHT INTERSECTION WITH 4 LANES OF TRAFFIC COMING THE OPPOSITE DIRECTION WHEN MY JEEP SHUT OFF I HAD NO STEERING, NO BREAKS AND NO ENGINE RUNNING. I WAS MOVING FORWARD AT 44MPH UNABLE TO CONTROL THE VEHICLE AND KEPT HITTING THE START BUTTON. AFTER SEVERAL ATTEMPTS THE CAR RESTARTED SAYING LOW OIL PRESSURE AND I WAS ABLE TO STEER THE CAR OFF THE ROAD BEFORE ENTERING THE INTERSECTION AND GETTING KILED. CAR WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP D'AMBROSIO AUTO GROUP. OIL WAS CHECKED AND I WAS ADVISED THERE WAS NO OIL IN THE ENGINE, THE VEHICLE HAD 3,650 MILES ON IT AND IT'S BRAND NEW. MAINTENANCE SAYS OIL CHANGE AT 10K MILES. SERVICE MGR. TOLD ME THE SAME EXACT THING HAPPENED TO THE PARTS MGR. SISTER. I HAVE ALSO BEEN TOLD BY 1 OTHER PERSON THE SAME THING HAPPENED TO HER WHILE...

THIS WOULD BE THE SECOND TIME ON THIS 2018 JEEP COMPASS WITH ONLY 5000K MILES THAT THE VEHICLE CONSUMES ENGINE OIL LEAVING IT VERY LOW WITH ALMOST NO OIL ON THE DIP STICK. FIRST TIME IT HAPPENED THE VEHICLE ONLY HAD 2000K MILES. THE FIRST TIME I ENCOUNTERED A PROBLEM WAS ON THE FREEWAY HEADING HOME WHEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. AND THE VEHICLE SHOOK AS WELL, AS IF IT WERE STRUGGLING. THE ENGINE LIGHT WENT AWAY BUT THE NEXT COUPLE OF TIMES AS I DROVE ON THE STREET THE VEHICLE WOULD TURN OFF A FEW TIMES. IT WOULD TURN BACK ON BUT IT STRUGGLED A LITTLE TO TURN ON. WHEN I TOOK IT TO THE DEALER AT 2000K MILES THE DEALER TOLD ME THAT THEY WERE UNABLE TO LOCATE THE PROBLEM ON THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE DOESNT LEAK ANY OIL. THEY ALSO DID A FEW UPDATES TO...

WHILE ACCELERATING ONTO A HIGHWAY, MY VEHICLE SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. I IMMEDIATELY PUT HAZARDS ON, TRIED TO PULL TO THE SIDE, STOPPED AND TRIED TURNING THE CAR BACK ON, AFTER 2 ATTEMPTS IT TURNED BACK ON BUT I WAS SCARED THE ENTIRE HOUR LONG RIDE HOME SO DROVE IN THE SLOW LANE SO THAT I COULD PULL RIGHT OFF THE HIGHWAY IF IT HAPPENED AGAIN. I TOOK THE VEHICLE FOR SERVICE AND THEY SAID IT WAS THE HOOD LATCH SENSOR. THEY REPLACED IT AND IT WORKED FINE FOR A MONTH OR SO THEN AGAIN THIS HAPPENED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD ABOUT 40 MPH, CAR SUDDENLY SHUT OFF. AGAIN ANOTHER SCARY EXPERIENCE. TOOK THE CAR BACK AND THEY SAID THE ACTUAL HOOD LATCH NEEDED TO BE REPLACED. PULLED OUT OF SERVICE CENTER AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN, PULLED BACK IN TO SERVICE CENTER AND A DAY LATER THEY CALLED AND SAID...
