2018 Jeep Compass

I WAS DRIVING MY CAR AROUND FOR A WEEK WITH NO OIL IN IT, THE DUMMY OIL LIGHT NEVER CAME ON, MY CAR NEVER TOLD ME I NEEDED OIL, WHILE THIS HAPPENED IT ALSO CAUSE MY CARS PARKING BRAKE TO ENGAGE WHILE I WAS DRIVING THROUGH TOWN. I WAS NOT EVEN DUE FOR AN OIL CHANGE. THE DEALERSHIP SAID THEY COULDN'T FIGURE OUT WHY THAT HAD HAPPENED. *TR

DRIVING AND THE WHOLE PANEL WENT DARK, RADIO AND EVERYTHING - CAME BACK ON APPROX 2 HOURS LATER. THIS ONLY HAPPENED ONCE. THEN MY START/STOP STOPPED WORKING. WHEN I TRY TO START MY VEHICLE IT DOES NOT START BUT SAYS ENGINE IS RUNNING. I HAD TO GO OUTSIDE MY VEHICLE TO REMOTE START IT IN ORDER TO GO. VEHICLE STALLED WHILE DRIVING DOWN THE STREET. THIS ALL RECENTLY STARTED TO HAPPEN. A LIGHTNING BOLT SYMBOL APPEARED ON MY GAGE AS WELL AS MY ENGINE LIGHT. *TR

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING AT AN UNDISCLOSED SPEED, THE AIR BAG WARNING LIGHT ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO THE SOUTHFIELD CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (28100 TELEGRAPH RD, SOUTHFIELD, MI 48034, (248) 331-9937) WHERE THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE AIR BAGS WIRING HARNESS NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AT A COST OF $5,000. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 48,500.

MY WIFE AND HER AUNT WERE DRIVING AT 70-75, THEN IT FELT LIKE WHEN A GOVERNOR KICKS ON. IF THAT MAKES SENSE. AT THE SAME TIME THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. SINCE I WAS ALREADY GOING THAT FAST I COULDN'T REALLY TELL, BUT I THOUGHT IT FELT LIKE I COULDN'T ACCELERATE. THEN AFTER THEY STOP FOR GROCERIES AND BEGAN DRIVING AGAIN THEY COULDN'T GET IT TO GO OVER 30. DROVE ON THE SHOULDER TO THE NEXT EXIT. IT FELT LIKE IT WOULDN'T SHIFT OUT OF FIRST GEAR TO ACCELERATE. I EVEN TRIED SPORT MODE TO MANUALLY DO IT & IT STILL WOULDN'T. THEN THEY PULLED OVER AND LET COOL BRIEFLY IT WAS WORKING AGAIN. WHEN MY WIFE FINALLY MADE IT HOME I PLUGGED IN MY PORTABLE CODE READER TO SEE WHAT TRIPPED THE SERVICE ENGINE LIGHT AND THE CODE WAS FOR TRANSMISSION CONTROL MODULE. I BOUGHT THIS VEHICLE LAST YEAR WITH 5000 MILES ON IT, CURRENTLY IT HAS 25,000. THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS!! AND THEN READING THE OTHER ISSUES PEOPLE ARE HAVING THIS VEHICLE SOUNDS LIKE A DEATH TRAP WAITING TO HAPPEN! MY FAMILY AND FRIENDS WILL NEVER PURCHASE DODGE PRODUCTS AGAIN, JUNK. *TR

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

MY 2018 JEEP COMPASS STARTED RANDOMLY OVERHEATING. WE WERE STRANDED FOR OVER 5 HOURS IN THE MIDDLE OF NOWHERE. I HAD THE ENGINE THERMOSTAT REPLACED, AS THE MECHANIC THOUGHT THAT WAS THE PROBLEM. IT SEEMED TO WORK AND WE WERE IN OUR WAY. ABOUT 2 MILES FROM OUR DESTINATION IT STARTED OVERHEATING AGAIN. THERE WAS NO STEAM, NO EXCESS SOUND FROM THE ENGINE, NO NOTHING. I TOOK THE VEHICLE INTO ANOTHER MECHANIC AND HAD A FULL DIAGNOSTIC RAN, ONLY TO COME BACK WITH NOTHING. WE ARE CURRENTLY DRIVING THROUGH THE DESERT WITH THE HEAT ON BECAUSE ANYTIME YOU TURN ON THE AC THE ENGINE STARTS TO OVERHEAT, AND IT IS NOT EVEN 80 OUTSIDE. I LOOKED IT UP IN THE SEEMS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM FOR THE JEEP COMPASS. WE HAVE A LONG WAY TO GO ON OUR TRIP STILL. THIS IS EXTREMELY CONCERNING CONSIDERING THE AGE AND MILEAGE OF THE VEHICLE.

CAR HAS STALLED WHILE DRIVING. NO TRANSMISSION FLUID AND JUST BOUGHT FROM DEALER LESS THAN 600 MILES AGO. ENGINE RUNS HOT TO THE POINT VEHICLE STOPS WHILE DRIVING. ELECTRICAL SYSTEM MALFUNCTIONS AND WINDOWS GO UP AND DOWN. BURNING THROUGH COOLANT AND TRANSMISSION FLUID AS WELL AS OIL. CAR OVERHEATS UPON ANY ACCELERATION AND SHUTS OFF. ALL OCCUR WHILE IN MOTION. VEHICLE ELECTRICAL SYSTEM AND LIGHTS TOO BRIGHT AT NIGHT AND CANNOT SEE YOU BACK UP WHILE PARKED OR IN MOTION. CANNOT DIM. VEHICLE GEAR SHIFT IS ROUGH IN AND OUT OF GEAR (IN DRIVE TO PARKED). COULD NOT PARK WHEN STALLED.
