2018 Jeep Compass

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

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 BUT THEN JERKS AND COMPLETELY STOPS. I BOUGHT THIS CAR IN THE BEGINNING OF THE YEAR AND IF I KNEW I WOULD HAVE ALL THESE ISSUES WITH IT AND BE FEARFUL THAT I COULD'VE GOTTEN INTO A CRASH OR WORSE ON THE HIGHWAY- I WOULD NOT HAVE BOUGHT IT!

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.

MY TRACTION CONTROL MAKES A LOUD NOISE, AFTER HAVING IT BACK TO THE GARAGE 3 TIMES I HAVE BEEN GIVEN 3 CHOICES. 1 LISTEN TO THE NOISE, TURN UP MY RADIO OR 3 TURN OFF THE TRACTION CONTROL. JEEP HAS NO ANSWER OR FIX FOR THE NOISE. I FIND IT TROUBLING THAT THEY WOULD SUGGEST TURNING UP THE RADIO WHICH TO ME CAUSES A SAFETY ISSUE OR TO TURN OFF THE TRACTION CONTROL WHICH SEEMS TO ME WAS PUT ON THERE AS A SAFETY FEATURE. THIS HAS BEEN AN ONGOING PROBLEM SINCE I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE.

ISSUE IS WHAT SEEMS TO BE WITH THE FRONT SUSPENSION AND IT'S ALIGNMENT. I'M PRETTY SURE THERE'S NOT ANYTHING BROKEN, IN FACT I'M ACTUALLY BAFFLED UNLESS IT IS A POSSIBLE 'CAMBER' ISSUE/SETTING. MORE SPECIFIC: NEGATIVE CAMBER, CAUSING BOTH TIRES TO BALD ON THE INSIDE, EVENLY IF THAT MAKES SENSE. (BUT I'M NOT GOING TO ACT LIKE I KNOW MY STUFF, CAUSE IT'S NOT MY PROFESSION) SEE ATTACHED BELOW...ALSO SPOKE WITH SERVICE SUPERVISOR MENTIONED (OVER PHONE), HE SAYS A POTENTIAL TOE OUT, IN WHICH IS ALSO ON ATTACHED SHEET. IF NEEDED I COULD SEND THE PHOTOS OF THE TIRES WEAR PATTERN. CAR MILEAGE (43K) VEHICLE DOES NOT PULL, VEHICLE WAS NOT IN MOTION, & WE'VE ONLY HAD THE VEHICLE A LITTLE OVER A YEAR. READ ABOUT OTHER RECALLS OF SAME MAKE/YEAR THUS REASON BEHIND COMPLAINT. THERE IN THE ATTACHMENT, LOOKS A LITTLE OVER-EMPHASIZED, HOWEVER, ISSUE IS THIS BAD.

THE JEEP HAS GONE INTO LIMP MODE TWICE. FIRST TIME WAS ALMOST REAR ENDED. JEEP WAS TOWED TO DEALERSHIP SAME DAY. REPAIRED ONCE ADVISED THERE WAS A MOTHER BOARD ISSUE. THE SECOND TIME DEALER UNABLE TO REPLICATE NO REPAIR MADE. TURN STARTED TO GET STUCK AROUND THE SAME TIME. TURN SIGNAL KEEPS GETTING STUCK HAS BEEN SENT TO DEALER SEVERAL TIMES ISSUE STILL NOT REPAIRED. *TR
