2018 Jeep Compass

2018 JEEP COMPASS LIMITED BOUGHT BRAND NEW WOULD NOT START WITH APPROX. 240 MILES ON IT. WAS PARKED IN MY GARAGE. CALLED DEALER, WAS TOLD TO CALL ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. CAR STARTED AFTER SOME TIME, CANCELLED ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. I DROVE CAR TO DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR. THEY DID DIAGNOSTICS, SAID IT WAS SOFTWARE AND SAID CAR SEEMED TO FIX ITSELF. I DROVE CAR HOME THAT SAME DAY. SECOND TIME ,SAME ISSUE, CAR WOULD NOT START WITH APPRX. 3600 MILES . I HAD JUST COME OUT OF THE SUPERMARKET. CALLED DEALER WHERE I BOUGHT THE CAR, CALLED JEEP ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE, WHO LEFT ME SITTING IN THE COLD FOR ABOUT TWO HOURS. COLD AND VERY ANGRY I CANCELLED THAT TOW AND USED MY TRIPLE AAA AND MY LOCAL TOW GUY,(WHO HAD THE JEEP LOADED ON THE FLATBED IN HALF AN HOUR) AND DROVE ME AND MY JEEP TO MY DEALER. SERVICE IS TRYING TO FIX THE CAR. THEY HAVE HAD IT FOR 3 DAYS NOW AND THROUGH THE WEEKEND. JEEP PROVIDED A RENTAL FOR 1 WEEK. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE. I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE WITH THIS CAR. HOPING THEY CAN FIX IT OR IT IS MAYBE A LEMON. BOTH TIMES THE CAR WAS PARKED. I HAVE NEVER HAD A CAR LEAVE ME STRANDED LIKE THIS. I DO HAVE A CASE FILE WITH JEEP AND WAS TOLD SOMEONE WOULD GET BACK TO ME IN 1 BUSINESS DAY. THAT DID NOT HAPPEN, I CALLED THEM BACK AND WAS TOLD I WAS GIVEN INCORRECT INFORMATION AND THAT ACTUALLY THEY WOULD GET BACK TO ME IN 24-48 HOURS. SO, I BETTER GET A PHONE CALL OR E-MAIL ON MONDAY. JEEP KNOWS ABOUT THIS ISSUE. I THOUGHT I WAS BUYING A SAFE CAR.. I DON'T FEEL THAT WAY NOW.

THE DEALER ALSO INFORMED THE CONTACT THAT THE VEHICLE PERFORMED AS DESIGNED BECAUSE OF THE LOW OIL. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE.

IN OCTOBER OF THIS YEAR 2018. I BOUGHT A NEW JEEP COMPASS. I COMPLAINT TO THE DEALERSHIP ABOUT. I WAS TOLD THERE NOTHING THEY CAN DO. EVERY TIME YOU STOP FOR A TRAFFIC LIGHT OR COME UP ON TO A STOP SIGN. THE VEHICLE STALL OUT. WHEN REMOVE YOUR FOOT FROM THE BRAKE. IT WILL RESTART. THIS CAN'T BE GOOD FOR THE STARTER. IT'S ACCIDENT WAITING HAPPEN. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE I HAVE WITH THIS VEHICLE. THERE SHOULD BE RECALL ON THIS VEHICLE TO FIX THIS BEFORE THE PEOPLE IN THIS VEHICLE ARE INJURY OR KILL. WHEN WHAT!!!! IF YOU READ ALL OF COMPLAINTS ABOUT THIS VEHICLE. THERE ARE 94 COMPLAINTS.

NEW JEEP WOULDN'T START WITH 1700 MILES ON IT.FAILURE LIGHT CAME ON DASHBOARD.WHILE ON THE ROAD CAR DASHBOARD SAID" FAILURE,VEHICLE WILL SHUT OFF , GO TO A SAFE PLACE" IT DIED AND AT LEAST I MADE IT TO A PARKING LOT. TERRIFYING EXPERIENCE! HAD TO HAVE IT TOWED TO DEALER.I HAVE HAD IT ONE MONTH. DEALERSHIP SAID IT MAY BE AN OIL MODULE PROBLEM THAT IS RECURRING AND IT WILL KEEP HAPPENING! SO MUCH FOR BUYING A "SAFE" NEW CAR. I AM DISGUSTED. THEY TOLD ME TO REPORT IT TO CHRYSLER. THEY SEE THIS HAPPENING A LOT! WHY NOT INFORM CONSUMERS BEFORE PURCHASE? I AM AFRAID TO EVEN GET IT BACK. I DON'T WANT TO DRIVE IT.

WHEN FIRST STARRING VEHICLE AND DRIVING THE VEHICLE STALLS. THIS HAS HAPPENED TO ME TWICE IN THE LAST MONTH. I STARTED MY CAR. THEN STARTED TO BACK OUT OF PARKING SPACE. I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE GOT TO DRIVEWAY AND INTERSECTION OF MAIN STREET WHEN THE CAR DECIDED TO DIE/STALL ALL LIGHTS WHERE ON THOUGH. THE SECOND TIME I WAS DRIVING AND TURNED THE CORNER WHEN THE CAR STALLED. LUCKILY NO ONE WAS BEHIND ME. I PUSHED THE START BUTTON AND STARTED RIGHT UP BOTH TIMES

ON NOVEMBER 27, 2018, I WAS MAKING A LEFT TURN WITH ONCOMING TRAFFIC AND THE VEHICLE STOPPED RUNNING MIDWAY THRU THE TURN. I WAS ALMOST IN A CRASH. I GOT THE VEHICLE OFF THE ROAD AND PUT THE VEHICLE IN PARK. I STARTED THE ENGINE. YOU COULD NOT HEAR IT RUNNING BUT THE RPM GAUGE REGISTERD AROUN 5-500 RPM. I PUT THE CAR IN DRIVE AND IT BEGAN TO RUN. I CALL THE DEALER IMMEDIATELY AND THE SOONEST I COULD GET TO THE DEALER WAS THE 29TH. I DELIVERED THE CAR TO THE DEALER EARLY ON THE 29TH. THE DEAL CALLED ME AROUND 5:30 PM THE SAME DAY TO EXPLAIN THE CAR WAS LOW ON OIL AND THIS CAUSED THE CAR TO SHUT OFF. THEY ASKED ME TO DO A OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. I RETURNED THE CAR ON DECEMBER THE 7. I STARTED THE CAR THAT MORNING AND IT SOUNDED LIKE THE CAR HAD NO OIL IT WHILE IT WAS RUNNING. THE DEALER KEPT THE CAR FOR 10-15 MIN AND RETURNED IT TO ME AND TOLD ME IT WAS FINE. THERE WAS NO INDICATION THE OIL WAS LOW. SINCE THEN I SPOKE TO AJ AT THE DEALER AND HE TOLD ME THE CAR WAS THREE QUARTS LOW ON OIL WHEN I BROUGHT IT IN ON DECEMBER 27TH. I WAS TOLD THAT THIS IS A SAFETY FEATURE FOR THE VEHICLE WHEN THE OIL GETS LOW. I HAVE HAD ALL SERVICE DONE AT THE DEALER. I DO NOT TRUST THIS VEHICLE. THIS IS GOING TO GET SOMEONE KILLED.
