2018 JEEP COMPASS Power Train Problems

PURCHASED AT THE DEALERSHIP @ 5K..ENGINE STALLED @ 18K MILES AS I WAS BACKING OUT OF MY DRIVEWAY.. CHECKED AND THERE WAS NO OIL ON STICK.. HAD TO BUY OIL TWICE JUST TO TAKE MY JEEP TO BE SERVICED AND HAVE AN 'OIL CONSUMPTION TEST' PERFORMED MULTIPLE TIMES, WAS TOLD EVERYTHING WAS FINE.. 11K MILES LATER..'SERVICE ENGINE,' 'SERVICE TRANSMISSION,' FLASHES ON DASH. NO OIL ON STICK WITHIN 400 MILES OF NEEDING AN OIL CHANGE.. ENGINE WON'T TURNOVER/START. STRANDED WITH <30K MILES & HAVEN'T HAD THE VEHICLE A YEAR.

ON NOVEMBER 14, 2019, MY WIFE DROVE OUR 2018 JEEP COMPASS ON A LOCAL STREET, WITHIN MINUTES, THE CAR BEGAN SLOWING DOWN IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD, CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP, AND THEN SHUT OFF. BEFORE THE CAR SHUT OFF, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT CAME ON. ON THE FIRST ATTEMPT, THE CAR DID NOT TURN BACK ON. ON THE SECOND ATTEMPT, THE CAR TURNED BACK ON.

WHILE DRIVING THIS VEHICLE ON THE FREEWAY THE "SERVICE SHIFTER" MESSAGE CAME UP ON DASH. ALL LIGHTS ON THE SHIFTER CAME RED. CAR HAS ONLY 15,199 MILES ON IT.

CAR HAS SHUT OFF WHILE DRIVING ABOUT 12 TIMES THE PAST 2 YEARS. I NOTICED STARTED AFTER 6K. MY OIL IS PERFECTLY FINE AND I KEEP UP WITH ALL THE OIL CHANGES ESPECIALLY SINCE IT IS A LEASE AND IS FREE WITH WHO I LEASE IT THROUGH, ITS VERY DANGEROUS AND I HAVE 4 CHILDREN!!!!! ALSO SOUNDS A HARD KNOCKING SOUNDS WHILE ACCELERATING AS IT SHIFTS INTO ANOTHER GEAR AND JERKING OF THE ENTIRE CAR FORWARD WHEN THIS HAPPENS I HAD TO IMMEDIATELY SLAM ON MY BRAKES AS IT ALMOST CAUSED HUGE ACCIDENT AND NOT TO MENTION SHAKES ME AND MY CHILDREN UP EVERY TIME THIS HAPPENS. WHY AREN'T THERE ANY RECALLS ON THIS IF THERE ARE SOOOO MANY COMPLAINTS?*DT CONSUMER STATED I HAVE TO TAKE IT BACK IN ANOTHER 1K SO I WILL PROVIDE FOLLOW UP. HE SAID I'M BURNING A LITTLE MORE THAN NORMAL SO THAT'S WHY THE...

I HAVE BEEN TO PAPAS NOW 5 TIMES FOR THE SAME TWO PROBLEMS MY START STOP KEEPS STALLING WHEN TRYING TO TURN ON 3 TIMES NOW AND HAS HAD THE CHECK START STOP SYSTEM LIGHT COME ON 3 TIMES NOW. ALSO MY PART OF MY POWERTRAIN WAS BROKEN AND MY STRUT BROKE.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS STARTED, THE CHECK ENGINE INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO EASTCHESTER CHRYSLER JEEP DODGE RAM (718-547-5500, LOCATED AT 4007 BOSTON RD, BRONX, NY 10466) WHERE IT WAS DIAGNOSED THAT THE TRANSMISSION NEEDED TO BE REPAIRED. A LOANER VEHICLE WAS NOT PROVIDED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED TO GET A RENTAL VEHICLE FOR TWO DAYS AND THE DEALER WOULD REIMBURSE HIM. THE DEALER WAS NOT CONTACTED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE AND DID NOT ASSIST. ADDITIONALLY, WHILE THE CONTACT'S DAUGHTER WAS AT A STOP LIGHT, THE VEHICLE WAS REAR ENDED BY ANOTHER VEHICLE. THE AIR BAGS DID NOT DEPLOY. THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS SEATED IN THE FRONT PASSENGER SEAT AND STRUCK HER HEAD ON THE DASHBOARD. THE SEAT BELT DID NOT RESTRAIN HER PROPERLY AND SHE SUSTAINED A CONCUSSION. THE DRIVER SUSTAINED A BACK INJURY. THE...

WHILE DRIVING MY CAR AND MAKING A TURN ON A BUSY INTERSECTION IN CHICAGO MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. IT APPEARS TO BE ON, BUT I CANNOT ACCELERATE. I TURN THE CAR OFF, THERE'S A STALL BEFORE MY CAR COMPLETELY RESTARTS. NO LIGHTS HAVE COME ON AT ALL. WHEN THE CAR FINALLY COMES BACK ON, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS ACTIVATED AND IT TAKES SOME TIME TO GET IT TO TURN OFF. I AM NOT DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE FOR AT LEAST ANOTHER 2K MILES.

WHEN DRIVING, THE VEHICLE WILL SUDDENLY STOP, CHECK ENGINE, CHECK TRANSMISSION, SERVICE ENGINE SOON ALL LIGHT UP AND THE CAR WILL NOT RESTART. THE VEHICLE HAS HAD AN OIL AND FILTER CHANGE AT 5,000 MILES. THE ERROR CODES ARE: P3506 AND P2AF5: CYLINDER MISFIRE FAULT DETECTED, THROTTLE POSITION SENSOR, SENSOR REFERENCE VOLATAGE CIRCUIT LOW, CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR, ENGINE OIL PRESSURE SENSOR, ACCELERATOR PEDAL POSITION SENSOR CIRCUIT 1 LOW. THE VEHICLE IS 16 MONTHS OLD AND HAS 7,000 MILES. THIS HAS HAPPENED AT LEAST 7 TIMES, THE LAST 3 YESTERDAY. ALL CITY DRIVING, ONCE IN THE DRIVEWAY. SOMETIMES VEHICLE WON'T TURN OFF, BUT YOU CANNOT MOVE FORWARD. IF YOU WAIT ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES, ALL RETURNS TO NORMAL UNTIL THE NEXT EVENT. MAYBE IN A WEEK, MAYBE IN 5 MINUTES.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE ENGAGED INDEPENDENTLY. ON ANOTHER OCCASION, WHILE THE CONTACT'S WIFE WAS DRIVING HIGHWAY SPEEDS, THE FAILURE RECURRED AND THE LOW OIL PRESSURE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO SOUTH COUNTY CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (455 AUTOMALL DR, GILROY, CA 95020, 408-842-8244) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THIS WAS A NORMAL OCCURRENCE. THE CONTACT WAS ADVISED TO CHECK THE OIL FREQUENTLY. THE FAILURE PERSISTED AND THE SAME DEALER PROVIDED THE CONTACT'S WIFE THE SAME INFORMATION AGAIN. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE AND REFERRED THE CONTACT TO NHTSA. THE VEHICLE HAD NOT BEEN REPAIRED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 7,708.

MY CAR HAS STALLED OUT SEVERAL TIMES ON THE INTERSTATE AND IN BUSY IN TOWN TRAFFIC ALL DUE TO LOW OIL PRESSURE. I HAVE TAKEN MY CAR IN SEVERAL TIMES TO HAVE THE OIL TOPPED OFF BECAUSE MY DIPSTICK IS SHOWING NO OIL. THIS HAPPENS ABOUT EVERY 500 MILES. THIS CAR IS A DEATH TRAP!

ENGINE EATS OIL WAY TO MUCH AROUND 709 MILES IT WILL START TO ROUGHLY IDLE AND WHEN CHECKING THE OIL LEVELS IT'S 2 QUARTS LOW. I CAN ALSO BE DRIVING AND THE VEHICLE WILL JERK WHEN TRYING TO GET UP TO SPEED THRUSTING ME FORWARD LIKE IT'S HAVING TROUBLE.

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...

THE JEEP HAS AN ISSUE....WHEN I BACK INTO MY DRIVE WAY IN REVERSE THE CAR WILL SOMETIMES ROLL FORWARD....REALLY UNSURE WHAT THIS IS ABOUT BUT BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE CHECKED OUT. ALSO, THE JEEP SOMETIMES JERK WHEN I TAKE OFF AND EVEN SWERVE OVER TO THE LANE LEFT OF ME WHEN I'M DRIVING IN THE FREEWAY. I HAVE MENTIONED THESE THINGS TO THE DEALERSHIP BUT NOTHING BACK YET. I LOVE THE VEHICLE BUT THERE'S DEFINITELY SOME ISSUES THAT NEED TO BE RESOLVED.

MY VEHICLES TRANSMISSION, BEGINNING AT 30,000 MILES, STARTED TO LOCK UP. THE SERVICE TRANSMISSION AND SERVICE ENGINE LIGHTS BOTH ACTIVATED. THIS ONLY OCCURRED WHILE THE VEHICLE WAS PARKED AND IDLED. I HAD TO PRESS GAS TURN VEHICLE OFF FOR A COUPLE OF MINUTES AND RESTART TO RESET THE TRANSMISSION ICON. THE SAME LOCK UP STARTED TO HAPPEN WHILE DRIVING AFTER I PASSED THE 36,000 MILES MARK. I WAS ON THE HIGHWAY USING CRUISE CONTROL AND THE VEHICLE LOCKED UP AND STARTED TO SLOW DOWN. I COULD NOT ACCELERATE SO I HAD TO PUT MY HAZARDS AND PULL OVER. THIS HAPPENS VERY OFTEN NOW. AUTOZONE STATES THE CODE POPS UP WITH U1428. I THEN START TO HAVE START UP ISSUES AT 50,000 MILES. THE START/STOP SYSTEM IS UNAVAILABLE AND THE LIGHT REFLECT 'A!' HAS BEEN ACTIVARE SINCE. THIS HAS CAUSED MY VEHICLE TO GET REALLY HOT. CONSTANT OIL BURNING. AND GAS...

WHILE STOPPED AT A STOP LIGHT AUTO START/STOP TURNED THE CAR OFF AS NORMAL. A FEW MOMENTS LATER THE BRAKE LIGHT ILLUMINATED ON THE DASH AND THE ELECTRONIC EMERGENCY BRAKE TURNED ON. I RELEASED MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE TO SEE IF THE CAR WOULD START BACK UP IT WOULD NOT. THE DASH READ OUT IN PARK AND START. I ATTEMPTED HOWEVER CAR WOULD NOT START. THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WOULD NOT TURN OFF EITHER. I HAD TO CALL ROAD SIDE ASSISTANCE FOR A TOW. VEHICLE ONLY HAS 11,400 MILES. THE CAR IS AT THE DEALERSHIP I AM WAITING ON THEIR INVESTIGATION.

WHILE DRIVING DOWN ROAD AT ABOUT 55 MPH. I EXPERIENCED A JERKING MOTION. FELT LIKE COMING FROM THE BACK WHEEL AREA.

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.

BRAKES ARE BAD, HAVE BEEN SINCE WE GOT IT. THEY LOCK UP WHEN U HIT THE BRAKES. SOMETHING WAS WRONG WITH IT WHEN I DROVE IT ON THE LOT. SOMETHING RATTLEING IN THE FRONT END. THEY STOPPED THE RATTLE BUT BRAKES ARE A HUGE ISSUE. NO MATTER HOW LIGHT YOU TAP THEM THEY LOCK UP. WHEN THEY ARE WET IT IS UNDRIVABLE. ALSO ENGINE REVS UP FOR NO REASON AND THE ENGINE KILL THING DOES NOT WORK RIGHT. ITS NOT INSTANTANEOUS. LOTS OF LAG BEFORE YOU CAN MOVE.. WE HAVE BEEN BACK TO THE DEALER RIGHT AFTER WE BOUGHT IT TO TRY TO TRADE IT FOR ANOTHER ONE BUT NO LUCK. I SHOULD HAVE WALKED AWAY WHEN IT WAS MAKING THE NOISE WHEN I MOVED IT ON THE LOT. SPECIALLY AFTER THE WAY WE WERE TREATED BY THE GUY WHO DID THE PAPERWORK WHEN WE DECLINED THE EXTRA WARRANTY. IF...

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...

COMPUTER MESSAGE IN THE CAR INFORMATION SCREEN STATED SHIFTER SERVICE AS I WAS TURNING ON THE CAR. CURRENTLY THERE HASN'T BEEN A RECALL ON THIS ITEM BUT ACCORDING TO THE RESEARCH THERE NEEDS TO BE ON SET UP. EVERYTIME I ATTEMPT TO ACCELERATE THERE IS A DELAY ALSO UPON BRAKING JUST A TIP JERKS THE WHOLE VEHICLE.

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...

MY 2018 JEEP COMPASS 4WD MAKES GRUMBLE/DRONE" SOUND AT 30 MPH AND ABOVE, SOUNDS LIKE IT'S FROM THE TRANSMISSION OR DIFFERENTIAL.

I HAVE HAD TWO INSTANCES WITHIN A 2 MONTHS OF EACH OTHER WHERE MY NEW JEEP COMPASS HAS BROKEN DOWN AND NEEDED TO BE TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP. BACK IN FEBRUARY, I WAS DRIVING ABOUT 65 MPH ON THE HIGHWAY AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON, WHICH I THOUGHT WAS STRANGE. I CAME UP TO A STOP SIGN AND TRIED TO ACCELERATE AGAIN, AND I CRAWLED THROUGH THE INTERSECTION WITH NO POWER, RPMS SHOOTING THROUGH THE ROOF, AND MY WHOLE VEHICLE SHAKING VIOLENTLY. THE HARDER I PRESSED ON THE GAS, THE SLOWER IT WENT. THERE WAS ONCOING TRAFIC AT THIS TIME, SO IM GLAD NO ACCIDENT OCCURED. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THAT I NEEDED TWO SOFTWARE UPDATES, FOR MY TRANSMISSION AND ONE OTHER ONE, AND IT FIXED THE PROBLEM. FAST FORWARD TO APRIL 27, 2019, IM DRIVING 50 MPH AND THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AGAIN. I COME 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...

THE VEHICLE WAS IN MOTION ON HIGHWAY 180. THE VEHICLES SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT, TRANSMISSION LIGHT, ELECTRONIC PARKING BRAKE, AND SERVICE HILL HOLDER TURNED ON. I STOPPED THE VEHICLE IN THE SHOLDER. I CHECKED THE TRANSMISSION AND ENGINE OIL AND BOTH WERE GOOD. I TRIED PUTTING THE VEHICLE ON DRIVE AND THE ELECTRONIC PARKING LIGHT CAME ON AND STOPPED THE VEHICLE FROM GOING ON DRIVE. THE LIGHT STAYED ON FOR THE ELECTRONIC BRAKING SERVICE. I WAS ABLE TO TAKE IT OFF THE BRAKE STILL WITH THE SERVICE LIGHTS ON. I WAS GOING TO SHIFT IT INTO DRIVE WHEN IT MADE A STRONG POPPING AND SCREECHING SOUND ON THE TRANSMISSION WHEN PLACED ON REVERSE. I MOVED IT TO DRIVE AND IT DID THE SAMETHING. I TRIED GIVING IT GAS AND THE D FOR DRIVE WOULD JUST BLINK AND THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT MOVE. I WAITED 30 MINUTES AND TRIED MOVING IT BUT...

RADIO WILL RANDOMLY TURN ON WHILE THE CAR IS OFF AND I AM OUTSIDE OF IT (DOORS LOCKED) CAR WILL STRUGGLE TO GO INTO GEAR SOMETIMES, STRONG JERK ONCE IT GOES INTO GEAR. WINDSHIELD WHIPPERS WILL TURN ON ON THEIR OWN (SUNNY DAY) AND WILL NOT TURN OFF.

THIS IS THE THIRD CAR I OWN, MY FIRST TWO CARS WERE HONDA AND NOW I AM CURRENTLY DRIVING A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. I HAVE BEEN DRIVING THIS CAR SINCE AUGUST, ON 2/26/19 AROUND 1:30PM I WAS DRIVING FOR ABOUT 2 MINUTES WHEN I STOPPED AT A RED LIGHT AND MY AUTOMATIC STOP/START TURNED MY CAR OFF, I PRESSED THE BUTTON AND MY CAR STARTED AGAIN NORMALLY. AS THE LIGHT TURNED GREEN I MOVED MY FOOT FROM THE BREAK TO THE GAS AND MY CAR DID NOT MOVE. I PRESSED THE AUTO AGAIN AND I STILL DID NOT MOVE, CONTINUED TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND NOTHING WOULD WORK. I HAD TO RESTART MY CAR TWICE BEFORE IT WOULD MOVE. THIS ALL HAPPENED WHILE AT A GREEN LIGHT WITH CARS BEHIND ME. ON 2/27/19 AT 2:45PM I STARTED MY CAR AND WHILE I WAS STILL DRIVING PRESSED THE AUTO...

ENCIENDO EL VEHCULO PERO CUANDO ME QUEDO DENTRO DEL MISMO ENCENDIDO Y CON AIRE ACONDICIONADO ENCENDIDO POR LO MENOS 20MINUTOS SE ENCIENDE LUZ DEL MOTOR Y TRANSMISIN INDICANDO TIENE QUE SER VERIFICADO, PROCEDO APAGAR EL VEHCULO POR 2HRS Y AL ENCENDERLO NUEVAMENTE YA NO LO TIENE PERO AVECES PUEDE SALIR CORRIENDO EL VEHCULO Y EL CAMBIO SE QUEDA EN 3D NUNCA BAJA Y NO PASA DE 40MPH

SECOND TIME THIS ISSUE HAS BEEN A PROBLEM. FIRST TIME ELECTRICAL ISSUES PREVENTED CAR FROM SHIFTING OUT OF GEAR AND CAR WILL NOT SHUT OFF, I HAD TO PULL FUSES TO GET CAR TO SHUT DOWN. EMERGENCY PARKING BRAKE WOULD NOT EVEN ENGAGE. SO MY DAUGHTER HAD TO HOLD THE BRAKE BECAUSE SAID AUTO WAS STUCK IN REVERSE FOR OVER ONE HOUR. THIS IS A BRAND NEW CAR. IT IS MY BELIEF THAT THIS DEALERSHIP WAS NOT TRUTHFUL IN DISCLOSING THE ISSUES WITH THIS CAR. WEB SHOWS SEVERAL INSTANCES OF THIS HAPPENING, WHY HAS THE NTHTSA NOT RECALLED THESE VEHICLES WITH THIS SAME SETUP. I BELIEVE IT'S TIMES THAT THIS CAR GETS REPLACED BY THE MANUFACTURER.

TRANSMISSION SHIFT LOCKED IN REVERSE, WHEN THIS HAPPENS ENGINE WILL NOT SHUT OFF,SHIFT WILL NOT MOVE OR DISENGAGE, HAVE TO HOLD BRAKE PEDDLE DOWN OR HAVE ACCIDENT. NO SHUT DOWN, HAD TO HAVE SOMEONE PULL FUSE UNDER THE HOOD TO SHUT CAR OFF. WAS IN MOTION IN REVERSE IN A PARKING LOT, ALMOST HIT CAR BEHIND ME. SEVERAL PROBLEMS WITH THIS ONLINE 2018 JEEP COMPASS SHIFTER LOCKING

AFTER USING THE REMOTE START AND GETTING IN THE VEHICLE I WAS ABLE TO PLACE THE VEHICLE IN DRIVE WITHOUT PRESSING ON THE BRAKE OR PRESSING THE START/STOP BUTTON TO ALLOW THE WHEEL TO MOVE FREELY, IN TURN ALLOWING THE VEHICLE TO ROLL FORWARD ON A HILL WITHOUT BEING FULLY TURNED ON THUS NOT ALLOWING FOR THE POWER STEERING TO WORK AND THE STEERING WHEEL LOCKED IN POSITION. WHEN IN DRIVE THE VEHICLE WOULD NOT START, AFTER PLACING IT BACK INTO PARK THE VEHICLE WOULD STILL NOT START BUT CONTINUED TO BE ABLE TO ROLL FORWARD WHEN MY FOOT WAS NOT ON THE BRAKE. THE VEHICLES START/STOP WAS COMPLETELY DISABLED FOR FOR UP TO 3 MINUTES THEN THE CAR VERY SUDDENLY SHOOK, POWERED DOWN, AND I WAS ABLE TO PLACE IT IN PARK AND RESTART THE CAR VIA THE START/STOP BUTTON AND NORMAL OPERATION WAS RESUMED.

AUTOMATIC TRANSMISSION, AT TIMES, MAKES A CLUNKING NOISE SHIFTING FROM 4TH TO 5TH GEAR. NOTED TIMES ARE WHEN CRESTING A HILL (STAYS IN 4TH GEAR AT HIGHER RPM'S UNTIL CAR LEVELS OUT OVER THE HILL) AND ALSO WHEN CRUISING AT LOW SPEED (30-35MPH) WHEN RPM'S ARE LOW. ALL OTHER GEAR SHIFTS ARE SMOOTH. I HAVE HAD IT IN TO THE DEALERSHIP TWICE AND IT HAS BEEN CHECKED FOR UPGRADES VIA COMPUTER. ONE UPGRADE WAS MADE BUT DID NOT CHANGE THE TRANSMISSION PROBLEM. I WAS ALSO TOLD THAT ANOTHER 2018 JEEP COMPASS WAS TAKEN FOR A TEST DRIVE AND IT DID THE SAME THING, GIVING THE IMPRESSION THAT 'THAT IS HOW IT IS.' THIS IS NONSENSE AND SHOULD NOT HAPPEN WITH STANDARD DRIVING PRACTICES.

AT ABOUT 25 MPH THE BREAKS DIDN'T WORK WHEN APPLIED AND CAUSED AN ACCIDENT, SOME TIMES THE CAR SPEEDS UP EVEN WHEN GAS PEDAL IS NOT APPLIED, SOMETIMES WHEN I SHIFT TO DRIVE OR REVERSE THE D OR R INDICATOR FLASHING THEN I HAVE TO PARK AND TRY AGAIN.

VEHICLE TRANSMISSION WOULD JERK OR BUMP HARD ENOUGH FOR SEAT BELT TENSION SYSTEM TO JERK YOU INTO THE SEAT. WOULD MOSTLY HAPPEN AT A CONSTANT 30 MPH OR LOWER SUCH AS A SCHOOL ZONE. ALTHOUGH WOULD ALSO HAPPEN AT HIGHER SPEEDS ON ACCELERATION SUCH AS ON RAMP OR PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE. AFTER A FEW WEEKS OF THIS AND AFTER A TOUCH SCREEN SAFETY UPDATE TO KEEP THE DISPLAY FROM FLASHING FULL BRIGHTNESS AT NIGHT, THE VEHICLE WAS SLOWING DOWN TO TURN INTO PRIVATE ENTRY OF WORK (GATE THAT REQUIRES RFID BADGE) AND SHUT OFF COMPLETELY IN MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITHOUT WARNING. VEHICLES HAD TO SWERVE OUT OF THE WAY TO MISS FROM HITTING US AT ONLY 3500 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. LUCKY WE WERE ONLY DOING AROUND 20 MILES AN HOUR AND HAD OUR BLINKER ON. THE TECH THAT TOOK 22 DAYS TO WORK ON THE MOTOR OF THE...

VEHICLE LEASED NEW BEGAN TO HAVE GRUMBLING, LOAD HUMMING NOISE COMING FROM TRANSMISSION AT 37MPH. TOOK TEST DRIVE IN ANOTHER VEHICLE SAME NOISE. JEEP SAID KNOWN ISSUE WAITING FOR UPDATE. TOOK VEHICLE BACK TO DEALER UPDATED TRANSMISSION AND DRIVE LINE MODULE. NOISE STILL THERE, IF VECHILE PLACED IN 4X4 OR ESC TURNED OFF NOISE WILL DISAPPEAR. NOISE SOUNDS LIKE IT CAN BE DRIVELINE OR TRANSMISSION NOT IN RIGHT GEAR. CAR IS NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY AND RPM GOES HIGH. VEHICLE HAS STALLED OUT A FEW TIMES FOR NO REASON CAR WAS STATIONARY WITH FOOT ON BRAKE AND THE AUTO START OFF DISABLED. HEATED STEERING WHEEL AND SEATS GET EXTREMELY HOT. SHUT DOWN ON THERE OWN AT TIMES FOR NO REASON. POOR GAS MILEAGE IS RELATED TO ENGINE, TRANSMISSION AND DRIVELINE PROBLEMS

MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT IS ON, RIGHT SIDE OF RPM GAUGE IS LITE UP WITH THREE BARS. VEHICLE HAS LARGE CLUNK WHEN TURNING CORNERS AND ACCELERATING, ATTEMPTS TO STALE AT LOW SPEEDS. NOTE I TURN OFF THE STOP/START SWITCH AS I DO NOT LIKE IT TO TURN OFF AT STOP SIGNS. THE VEHICLE ACTS LIKE IT IS STILL ON. THE DEALER SAID IT COULD NOT LOOK AT MY CAR FOR TWO WEEKS. THE VEHICLE HAS 2,496 MILES ON IT. THEY TOLD ME THE FIRST TIME I COMPLAINED THAT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PROPERLY DRIVE AND I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 40 YEARS. VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS FOR STALLING OUT EVEN AT SPEEDS OF 10-20 MPH. WHEN I SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE IN MY GARAGE, IT FEELS LIKE THE REAR END IS GOING TO BUST THROUGH THE FLOOR BOARDS.

AFTER STOPPING AT INTERSECTIONS, ACCELERATED TO 30-35 MPH, THEN AS CAR STARTS TO SHIFT AT HIGHER SPEED, A CLUNK AND HESITATION IS HEARD AFTER AUTO SHIFTING .

UPON STARTING VEHICLE AND SHIFTING INTO DRIVE, VEHICLE HAS STARTED ROLLING IN REVERSE ON THE INCLINE EVENTHOUGH THE TRANSMISSION IS IN DRIVE. UPON INSPECTION OF THE SHIFT INDICATOR, THE "D" DRIVE POSITION INDICATOR HAS BEEN FLASHING AND TRANSMISSION IS NOT ENGAGED, AND THE VEHICLE IS FREEWHEELING . PER DEALER, COMPUTER SHOWS NO INDICATION OF THE PROBLEM OR CODE INFORMATION ABOUT IT. RETURNED FRON DEALER SERVICE ON 09-01-2018 AT APPROXIMATELY 10:30 HOURS. THIS HAS HAPPENED ON AT LEAST THREE (3) OCCASIONS.

WHEN EVER I AM MOVING OVER 65MPH IN MANUAL TRANSMISSION, THE VEHICLE AUTOMATICALLY SHIFTING GEAR FROM 9 TH TO 5TH GEAR. BECAUSE OF THAT THE VEHICLE MAKING FEARFUL SOUND AND SUDDEN RISE IN ENGINE RPM AND MAKING ME UNCOMFORTABLE DRIVING ON FREEWAYS, BECAUSE OF SUDDEN DOWNGRADING GEAR FROM 9 TO 5 THAT IS KIND OF UNEXPECTED AND UNCONTROLLABLE. I PURCHASED THE CAR VERY RECENTLY AND IT IS NOT MORE THAN 2 MONTHS AND LESSTHAN 3000 MILES SO FAR.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO ACCELERATE, THE VEHICLE FAILED TO MOVE. THE CONTACT DEPRESSED THE ACCELERATOR PEDAL AND THE "GEAR SHIFT" MESSAGE DISPLAYED. SHORTLY AFTERWARDS, THE VEHICLE VIOLENTLY JOLTED FORWARD AND THEN DROPPED. THERE WERE NO WARNING INDICATORS ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO PUENTE HILLS CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (17280 GALE AVE, CITY OF INDUSTRY, CA 91748, (626) 513-0002), BUT WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 31,081.

ENGINE SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE HIGHWAY. RECEIVED MESSAGES SERVICE TRANSMISSION AND SERVICE ENGINE. COASTED TO STOP ON SHOULDER OF ROAD. CAR WOULD NOT RESTART FOR ABOUT 10 MINUTES. CHECKED CODES AFTERWARDS; SHOWS P0339 CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR A CIRCUIT INTERMITTENT AND P0335 CRANKSHAFT POSITION SENSOR A CIRCUIT. THIS PRESENTS A SERIOUS SAFETY ISSUE WHEN CAR ENGINE STOPS WITHOUT WARNING.

I WAS STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN. I WENT TO GIVE THE CAR GAS AND IT SPIT AND SPUTTERED. CARS IN THE NORTHBOUND LANE HAD TO TAKE THE GRAVEL OR THEY WOULD HAVE HIT ME. I TOUCHED THE GAS AND THEN THE GAS PEDAL STUCK. IT WAS 55MPH HWY AND I WAS ALREADY AT 65MPH. I WAS GOING TO RUN INTO THE TRAFFIC OR TAKE THE DITCH. I TRIED SHIFTING INTO NEUTRAL AND IT WOULD NOT. I HIT THE GRAVEL AND PUT ON THE BRAKES. I FINALLY BROUGHT CAR TO A STOP. PUT CAR IN PARK AND TRIED TO SHUT CAR OFF. IT WOULD NOT.WENT TO TAKE FOOT OFF BRAKE AND THE RPM'S NEEDLE WAS BURIED. THE ENGINE WAS RACING. I PUSHED BOTH THE BRAKE AND GAS PEDAL SEVERAL TIMES AND THE CAR FINALLY SHUT DOWN. THERE WERE LIGHTS ON THE DASH ON AN A! AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT....

RADIO (DISPLAY) KEEPS SHUTTING OFF AND TAKES MINUTES TO RECONNECT, BROUGHT INTO DEALERSHIP SAY THEY CANT FIND ANYTHING WRONG WITH IT IT. HAS DONE IT 2 MORE TIMES SINCE THEN. HERE A LOUD NOISE WHEN RUNNING BETWEEN 35PMH-45MPH, BROUGHT INTO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID NOISE IS COMING FROM DRIVETRAIN, FOUND STARCASE FOR EXACT CONDITIONS AND ENGINEERING IS WORKING ON A SOULTION, NO DTC'S. WAS SENT ON MY WAY. WE JUST PURCHASED VEHICLE IN MARCH OF 2018. NOT A HAPPY CUSTOMER!

I WAS DRIVING ON A COUNTY ROAD AND THE MESSAGE "SERVICE HILL ASSIST" CAME ON THE SCREEN. I KEPT DRIVING AND THE MESSAGES "SERVICE ESC" AND "SERVICE ENGINE SOON" CAME ON THE SCREEN. THE POWER STEERING WENT OUT, THE SCREEN FOR THE RADIO KEPT FLASHING ON AND OFF, AND I COULD NOT TURN THE ENGINE OFF WITH THE PUSH BUTTON IGNITION. THIS HAPPENED TWO MORE TIMES AS I WAS TRYING TO TURN THE CAR OFF AND ON, AND I EVENTUALLY GOT THE VEHICLE HOME. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE THAT NEEDS TO BE DEALT WITH IMMEDIATELY BY JEEP.

ALL 24 WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE VEHICLE CAME TO A COMPLETE STOP ON 3-4 OCCASIONS . TOWED TO DEALER ON 3 SEPARATE TRIPS. DEALER HAS NOT OFFERED ANOTHER CAR YET. I WAS DRIVING AND THE WARNING LIGHTS CAME ON AND THE CAR STOPPED AND I COULD NOT GET IT STARTED BACK , SO I HAD IT TOWED.

WHILE DRIVING BETWEEN 30-50MPH IN INCLEMENT WEATHER THE 4 WHEEL DRIVE SYSTEM ATTEMPTS TO ENGAGE THE REAR AXLE FOR ADDITIONAL TRACTION. WHEN THIS OCCURS THERE IS A INTERMITTENT BANGING NOISE THAT EMITS FROM THE BOTTOM OF THE VEHICLE AND A BAD VIBRATION THROUGHOUT THE VEHICLE. THE DEALER DIAGNOSED THIS AS A "OVER MODULATION" OF THE REAR AXLE WHICH CAUSES A BINDING OF THE DRIVESHAFT. THE SOUND WAS EXPLAINED AS THE DRIVESHAFT IS FLEXING IN THE CARRIER BEARING AND STRIKING THE EXHAUST WHEN THIS BINDING OCCURS WHICH HAS CAUSED MARKS TO APPEAR ON THE EXHAUST AND DRIVE SHAFT.. ACCORDING TO THE DEALER THIS WAS A 4 WHEEL DRIVE MODULE ISSUE AND THERE WAS NO KNOWN TIME WHEN A REPAIR WOULD BE AVAILABLE HOWEVER THE VEHICLE WAS SAFE TO DRIVE. 3 DAYS AFTER THE DIAGNOSES WHICH WAS THE SECOND TRIP TO THE DEALER FOR THE ISSUE THE REAR WHEELS LOCKED UP WHILE...

IT MAKES A HUMMING NOISE AND IT SOUNDS LIKE WHEN YOU ARE SLOWING DOWN IT'S ALMOST LIKE IT'S SHIFTING DOWN. BEEN DOING SINCE I PICKED IT UP FROM THE DEALER ON 01/19/2018. I HAVE HAD IT AT THE DEALERSHIP THEY SAY THE NOISE IS NORMAL . I DISAGREE. I HAVE HAD A SYMBOL TWICE COME UP THAT LOOKS LIKE THIS (A)! . MY MAIN CONCERN IS THAT HUMMING NOISE AND WHERE IS IT COMING FROM SHOULD I BE CONCERNED WITH THE TRANSMISSION? IT HAPPENS AROUND 25 AND HIGHER SPEED.

MY FUEL EFFICIENCY (MPG) IS VERY POOR MY VEHICLE, I HAVE 9.4 MPG POWER LOSS AND THE MPG'S SHOWN IN THE OFFICIAL MANUFACTURING WEB PAGE IS EPA EST. MPG 22 CITY/30 HWY. HTTPS://WWW.JEEP.COM/JEEP-CAPABILITIES/FUEL-EFFICIENCY.HTML ADDITIONALLY I AM EXPERIENCING LOSS OF POWER DURING THE START OF THE DRIVE OR WHEN STARTING AGAIN THE VEHICLE'S PROGRESS AFTER STOPPING AT A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR AT THE TIME OF REVAMPING A VEHICLE, I HAVE ALSO EXPERIENCED SHAKING AS IF THE ENGINE OF THE VEHICLE WERE GOING TO TURN OFF, WITHOUT GOING THROUGH AND THE "CHECK ENGINE" INDICATOR DOES NOT ACTIVATE.
