2018 Jeep Compass

THE FRONT STABILIZER BAR END LINKS HAD TO BE REPLACED AFTER 25000 MILES. THIS VEHICLE IS ABOUT 2.5 YEARS OLD. THE WORK ORDER SAYS REPLACE FRONT SWAY BAR LINKS. ISN'T THAT A BIT EARLY TO BE REPLACING LINKS LIKE THIS. THE CAR IS A DAILY DRIVE AND DOES NOT GO OFF ROAD FOR ANYTHING. THE CAR WAS MAKING A RATTLING NOISE WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN FOR SERVICE.

EVER SINCE I HAVE OWNED THIS VEHICLE FROM MARCH 2018 WHEN DRIVING (IN MOTION) MY EMERGENCY BRAKE WILL COME ON AND SHUT ME DOWN, I HAVE HAD ENOUGH! YESTERDAY 5/4/2021 I WAS ALMOST HIT BY A SEMI BECAUSE OF THIS. JEEP HAS NOT ACKNOWLEDGED THIS ISSUE. CAR HAS BEEN BROUGHT IN TO DEALER MULTIPLE TIMES BUT I KEEP BEING TOLD THEY CANNOT RECREATE THE ISSUE ( AS IT IS SPARATIC).

I BOUGHT MY JEEP BRAND NEW WITH ZERO MILES IN 2018 AND HAVE BEEN HAVING PROBLEMS WITH MY BACK UP CAMERA SINCE THEN. MY BACK UP CAMERA FOR MY JEEP RANDOMLY AND CONTINUOUSLY GOES BLACK. THIS CAN LAST A DAY OR UP TO A WEEK I AM WITHOUT A BACK UP CAMERA. JEEP HAS REPLACED THE RADIO TWICE AND HAVE REPLACE THE CAMERA ITSELF ONCE. I'VE TAKEN MY CAR TO GET SERVICE FOR BACK UP CAMERA TO JEEP MULTIPLE TIMES. THE LAST TIME I WAS AT JEEP THEY REPLACED MY RADIO AND IT HASN'T BEEN A MONTH YET AND MY BACK UP CAMERA IS NOT WORKING THE SCREEN IS BLACK. TODAY IS MONDAY, MAY 3 AND I HAVE BEEN WITHOUT A BACK UP CAMERA SINCE FRIDAY APRIL 30TH. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR.I HAVE VIDEO PROOF EVERY TIME THE BACKUP CAMERA GOES OUT BUT I'VE ATTACHED A PICTURE OF THE BLACK SCREEN.

SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR IS HAVING PROBLEM WITH THE OIL I SENT TO THE PLACE WHERE I BOUGHT THEY SAID IS ALL CARS 2018 JEEP COMPASS HAVING A PROBLEM WITH THE OIL NEED TO BE CHANGE EVERY 1000 MILE (IT DOES IT COUPLE OF TIMES) WHEN I DRIVE THE CAR ON HIGHWAYS OR ON THE ROAD CAR BEGAN TO SLOW DOWN IN ITS OWN, THEN I HAVE MANUALLY RESTART THE VEHICLE AFTER A FEW MINUTES, STARTS NORMALLY

I HAVE A 2018 JEEP COMPASS LATITUDE AND ON NUMEROUS OCCASIONS HAVE HAD THE CAR STALL AT RED LIGHTS WHEN SHUTTING OFF FROM BRAKING, WHEN RELEASING MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE THE CAR FAILED TO ACCELERATE WITH OTHER VEHICLES BEHIND ME. IN THESE INSTANCES I HAVE HAD TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK AND THEN POWER IT OFF AND RESTART IT AS THE QUICKEST FIX. THIS HAS ALSO HAPPENED TO ME IN DRIVE THRUS WHILE STOPPING TO PAY AND AT STOP SIGNS, ALL DOING THE SAME THING AFTER BRAKING AND THE AUTOMATIC START/STOP ENGAGING. THE OTHER ISSUE I HAVE HAD HAS OCCURED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD/HIGHWAY. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME THREE TIMES NOW. IN ONE INSTANCE I WAS GOING 30 MPH AND MY CAR JUST STOPPED ACCELERATING AND THE POWER STIRRING NO LONGER WOULD WORK, THE SCREEN DISPLAYED A MESSAGE SAYING TO PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK AND THAT MY VEHICLE NEEDED TO BE STARTED BEFORE IT COULD BE SHIFTED AND THE D SHOWN ON MY DASH WAS BLINKING. WHEN THE CAR STARTED TO SLOW I TRIED TO PULL OVER, BUT MY POWER STIRRING WOULDN'T WORK AND I WAS FROCED TO STAY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. ANOTHER TIME I WAS TRUNING A CORNER AT A RED LIGHT AND IN THE PROCESS OF THE TURN GOING AROUND 15 MPH MY CAR DASH SHOWED THE SAME MESSAGE AND PERFORMED THE SAME WAY WITH NO POWER STIRRING. THE THIRD TIME I WAS GOING 55 MPH DOWN A HIGHWAY AND THE CAR DID THE SAME THING. IN EACH OF THESE INSTANCES I PUT MY CAR IN PARK, PRESSED THE BREAK AND THE START BUTTON AND THE CAR DID NOT START, ON THE SECOND TIME IT DID NOT START AS WELL AND SOUNDED AS IF MY CAR WAS NOT GOING TO START AT ALL AND STALLED LIKE THE BATTERY WAS DEAD, WHICH IT CLEARLY WAS NOT. EVENTUALLY THE CAR STARTS AND I COULD THEN SHIFT TO DRIVE AND PROCEED AS NORMAL. THIS IS NOT OKAY THOUGH, AND EXTREMELY DANGEROUS. MY CAR IS NOT VERY OLD AND DOES NOT HAVE A LOT OF MILES ON IT AT THE TIMES THESE OCCURED I WAS AT 31,000- 36,000 MILES.

ON N/B I5 BETWEEN ALBANY AND SALEM OREGON, TRAVELING WITH THE CRUISE CONTROL SET AT 73MPH, THE VEHICLE BEGAN ABRUPTLY BRAKING ON IT'S OWN. IN A MATTER OF SECONDS THE VEHICLE WENT FROM 73MPH TO APPROXIMATELY 45MPH, AND HARD/FAST ENOUGH TO LOCK THE SEAT BELT. THE VEHICLE WAS THEN PULLED OFF THE HIGHWAY, TURNED BACK ON/OFF AGAIN, AND DRIVEN TO THE DESTINATION WITHOUT ISSUES. LUCKILY THE INCIDENT HAPPENED AT ABOUT 430AM AND THERE WAS NO TRAFFIC. HAD THERE BEEN TRAFFIC A COLLISION WOULD'VE BEEN IMMINENT AND UNAVOIDABLE.

THIS VEHICLE HAS BEEN NOTHING BUT PROBLEMS SINCE I'VE MADE THE PURCHASE. THE VEHICLE RANDOMLY JERKS. I MAINTAIN THE VEHICLE REGULARLY IT CONSTANTLY SHOWS THAT AN OIL CHANGE IS NEEDED. NOW THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON AND THE VEHICLE WONT DRIVE OVER 20-30 MPH. I HAVE TO COMPLETELY TURN THE CAR OFF THEN RESTART IT FOR IT WORK. THE JERKING OF THE VEHICLE IS ENOUGH TO PUSH YOU FORWARD WITH FORCE. I'VE BEEN TO JEEP AND HAVE YET TO HAVE THE ISSUE RESOLVED. THIS IS SO UNSAFE BECAUSE IT HAPPENS IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING ITS TO THE POINT I'M AFRAID TO TAKE THE EXPRESSWAY IN FEAR ILL GET IN A ACCIDENT.

MY FORWARD COLLISION WARNING SYSTEM GAVE A FALSE POSITIVE WHILE I WAS DRIVING DOWN A BUSY ROAD WAY. IT ACTIVATED THE BRAKING SYSTEM WHEN THERE WERE NO VEHICLES IN FRONT OF ME FOR AT LEAST 40 YARDS AND CAUSING A VEHICLE THAT WAS FOLLOWING ME TO HAVE TO BREAK AND SWERVE TO MISS HITTING ME. I WAS ON RT 15 IN SHAMOKIN DAM AROUND 12:30 PM GOING 30 MPH

MY CAR FLASHED A WARNING TO "STOP SAFELY VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF SOON" AND CAR SHUT OFF AUTOMATICALLY WHILE I WAS DRIVING ON A CITY STREET! THERE IS A POWERTRAIN CONTROL MODULE RECALL FOR THIS MAKE AND MODEL BUT MINE WASN'T INCLUDED, I GUESS. A CAR GOING DOWN THE STREET AND SUDDENLY COMING TO A COMPLETE, UNINITIATED STOP IS EXTREMELY SCARY AND DANGEROUS. I WOULD THINK IF THIS IS HAPPENING, THEN THE PCM SHOULD BE REPLACED, BUT THE DEALERSHIP ISN'T ON BOARD WITH THIS. THEY SAY THERE IS NOTHING THEY CAN DO SINCE THEY CAN'T RE-CREATE THE ERROR. MY SIMPLE GOOGLE SEARCH HAS SHOWN THIS TO BE A VERY COMMON PROBLEM WITH THE 2018 JEEP COMPASS.
