Vehicle stalled on four different occasions on two different dates, twice while yielding to interstate ramp, once while stopped at traffic light, and once while in motion on city street.. vehicle had to be placed in park to restart and did not engage immediately, only after multiple attempts and failed turnover. reported stalls occurred in varyied temperatures. vehicle is 4 months old.
After starting car and driving for 2 minutes emergency break engages and car shuts off while in motion, upon turning off the car and restarting while turning right the low pressure sensor appears then disappears and service engine warning comes on car completely shuts off while in motion with no warning after the alarm disappears off dash. this occurred multiple times while driving in busy intersections. it also occurred when the car got towed back to dealership.
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 got it has replaced 15 of these motors already. thankyou
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
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 jeep compass. the contact stated that the vehicle experienced excessive engine oil consumption, which caused the vehicle to stall on several occasions. the contact stated that there were no warning indicators illuminated when the oil was low. best chrysler dodge jeep ram (520 colony pl, plymouth, ma 02360) stated that the contact needed to change the oil every three weeks. the manufacturer was notified. the vehicle was not repaired. the failure mileage was 10,000.
Was driving and went to turn and the jeep turned off with no warning. it took me a minute for it to start again. the next day i was turning onto the highway and the jeep did the same thing. i'm lucky that there was an area for me to be able to coast into on the side off the road or i could have been in a serious accident. had the jeep towed to the closet dealership and they informed me there was no oil in the jeep. i had 1k miles left to my next oil change and get my oil changed always before 5k miles. the dealership told me these jeeps burn oil faster than they should and i should buy synthetic oil to carry in the jeep and check my oil every couple of hundred miles. this should not be the solution, as i wouldn't have purchased the jeep if they told me i had to carry oil around with me & check my oil every couple of hundred miles. this issue is dangerous, as there is no warning that your oil is low before the jeep turns off. i travel at least 100 miles a day for work and i don't feel safe in this vehicle and shouldn't have to check my oil every other day.
Tl* the contact owns a 2018 jeep compass. the contact stated that while his son was driving at 50 mph, the oil warning light illuminated and the vehicle stalled. the contact's son was able to veer to the shoulder of the road. the vehicle was turned off and back on and operated as designed. the vehicle was taken to (croton auto park 1 municipal pl, croton-on-hudson, ny 10520 (914) 271-5100) where it was diagnosed that the engine needed to be replaced. the vehicle was repaired however, the failure recurred. the vin was not included in nhtsa campaign number: 17v670000 (engine and engine cooling). the manufacturer was made aware of the failure but no further assistance was taken. the failure mileage was approximately 11,039. *dt*jb
I've owned a 2018 jeep compass for 2 months i bought it with less than 50 miles on it. at 3500 miles the engine will shut off randomly. you have to put the jeep in park to restart the car. the cause of this is the jeep consumes oil ag a rate of a quart per 1000 miles and the jeep is installed with a fail safe that kills the motor so it doesn't harm the motor but will leave you stopped in the middle of the highway. the only way to restart the car is to put it in park and restart it.there is no low oil warnings or oil change indicators. the recommended oil change is 5000 miles
Car has a known mechanical defect in the car causing it to burn oil at an accelerated rate. causes the car to stall and lose steering brakes, and all computer operated systems. service bulletin # 09-007-18 rev a. was failed to be disclosed at time of purchase causing vehicle to be unsafe to be driven. have happen around feb 2019, july 2019 and again in september of 2019. car was bought in the end of november of 2018. *dt *as
When my vehicle hits 47 mph it starts making a very loud humming noise coming from the engine area. the noise continues to be persistent until i slow down to less than 30 mph. i have taken it to dealership but jeep doesn't know how to fix it. they say they have been working on a software update since early 2018. i'm not sure if it's damaging my vehicle but it is extremely loud.
While driving in a parking lot, my car shut off instantly, no warning. thank god i was not on the highway or that a car was not driving behind me! my husband checked the oil and it was extremely low. car only has, 2,840 miles on it. bought the car new on, 6/30/2018, with only, 28 miles on it. we took the car to the jeep dealership and was told the oil was empty and the engine is burning oil. he said this is happening with this model and other jeep/dodge vehicles with this motor. the mechanic did an oil change and stated to bring the car back after 500 miles to check the oil again. he stated if the oil lost happens again, they would have to replace the engine, with the same type of engine and hope for the best. i think this is absurd for a new vehicle with so little miles on it! fiat/chrysler is no help and will not give any options other than replacing the engine. shameful and shows they do not value their customers time nor feelings. they continue to make these cars with these same defected engines. if you search, jeep burning oil, you will find a ton of complaints.
The vehicle has 1700 miles and stalled again while driving. took 15 min for it to start back up. the first time with 300 miles the dealership said the batteries were bad. *bf consumer vehicle stalled twice and was towed. the first was due to primary and auxillary failing and primary battery terminal was not secured to the lead. both batteries were replaced. the second time it stalled was due to starter and alternator cables at the battery fuse blocked overtightened which caused damaged to battery positive terminal. fuse bloc was replaced also during both incidents, steering wheel was inorperable.*jb
Every time i am driving my car my car will do what i call a "spaz out" moment. the dash warning lights all come on and a loud ding begins. my car dash lights up like a christmas tree and each notice pops up: transmission needs service, 4 wheel drive needs serviced. traction system needs service, emergency break needs service. then they all go off the check engine light remains on. i am very worry for my safety and other if this vehicle locks the wheels while driving on the high way. most my driving is on the high way at the speed of 70mphs.
I bought the compass with 136 miles on it. around the 4500 mile mark my jeep died as i was accelerating on a straight, 25 mph street segment after making a turn 30 feet prior. after bringing the jeep in immediately for service, the technicians found nothing wrong. two days later i was pulling out of a parking lot onto a busy road. a log truck was coming but i had enough time to pull out and accelerate without creating a need for the log truck to brake. as i began to pull out, my jeep died with the nose slightly into the lane of oncoming traffic. fortunately no accident followed. i was able to get the jeep started after a minute and drove straight to the service center. they said it was due to low oil and that it was an engine protection feature. hey jeep/chrylser...how is an engine protection feature that provides no warning a better option than the vehicle stalling in the path of oncoming traffic? since those incidents, i notice i burn oil fast and spend more money constantly pouring oil into my jeep than i do on my 2005 silverado with over 115,000 miles. either install a sensor that alerts the driver of a low oil condition prior to the jeep stalling in traffic or rethink your design! what if it was your family in the vehicle? now my jeep hesitates when i need to accelerate, but does not stall since i add a quart frequently.
Takata recall excessive consumption of oil, the problem i'm having in my 2018 jeep compass is i'm changing my oil every 3,000 miles and before i reach the 3 000 miles i have to buy 2 quarts of oil, and i'm using 100% synthetic oil. my mileage is 8230.
The engine shuts off with no warning while in motion, we experienced this 3 times in the past few months. the last time it happened we almost got rear-ended by a semi truck while driving on the street, luckily the driver was able to pull around us honking his horn the whole way through. i called jeep/ chrysler corporate to express the safety concerns and they advised that "the engine was designed to shut off when the oil was low to protect itself". i replied that the value of an engine does not compare to the safety of my family or other motorist. the dealership traced the issue back to the oil consumption on the 4 cylinder engines, they claim that through their own guidelines it is ok for the jeep compass to burn 1 quart of oil every 2,000 miles (seems high). the engine burns through oil at an alarming rate and is designed to shut off when the oil is low. the 2018 jeep compass does not have an oil pressure gauge so drivers do not have a warning as to when the vehicle may potentially shut-off. i complained about that as well and their response was for me to check and add oil every time i pump gas, something you don't expect to do on a new vehicle. i was told by the service manager that there are a lot of complaints about the same issue but his hands were tied until chrysler issues a recall.
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.

Consumer bought car in august 2018 (memorial weekend). upon obtaining the car, consumer noticed that car appeared to attempt to stall when break; however, the engine would kick back in and not stall. last week (end of november 2018) consumer was driving the car and stopped at an individuals home to pick them up when the car completely shut off with the stop/start system warning light came on. consumer turned off vehicle and restarted the car; light went off and car ran as normal. consumer was driving the car today 12/5/2018 when stopped at a red light the car stalled and restarted, putting it into a "power saving mode" where the radio did not work and parking break light came on along with transmission light, and start/ stop light. upon getting the car to the destination (half a mile) the engine light illuminated. consumer turned off car and attempted to turn it back on. car instruments turned on; however, would was observed clicking and would not turn over. the transmission light is still on and the start/stop is illuminated. i have read many of the "complaints" for this vehicle and they are consistent with the same things i have been experiencing.
I have about 5500 miles on my new compass. while in drive the vehicle display flashed 'oil pressure low' for less than a second. then any indication of that warning light is gone. the engine then shuts down with no warning. no brake lights which makes this extremely unsafe for the potential of a rear end crash. i took the car to the dealership who said that the engine consumed 3 quarts of oil. there was no indication that the car was low on oil until a second before the engine stalled and turned off.
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.

2018 jeep stalled three times in two days. first and second stalls occurred while vehicle was in the middle of a left turn from a stop sign (5 mph). third stall happened as traveling on the on-ramp (40 mph) to an interstate highway. parking brake light comes on and vehicle is dead. restarted vehicle after two minutes or so to clear intersection. dealer cannot find any reason for stall and "chrysler has nothing on it." definite safety concern.
The car was in motion and in a middle of the street turn off, when the engine was checked it didn't have no engine oil on it. the car is brand new not even 5000 miles on it. didn't show any warning before hand making it a safety issue for those like me traveling with children and the car stoping out of nowhere.

Tl* the contact owns a 2018 jeep compass. while the vehicle was stopped with the brake pedal depressed, it lurched forward and struck the preceding vehicle. the preceding vehicle had a trailer hitch and ripped off the contact's bumper. there were no injuries and a police report was not filed. the vehicle was taken to rainbow chrysler dodge jeep ram of mccomb, llc (101 rainbow way, mccomb, ms 39648, (601) 684-7020), but they did not inspect the damage and stated they were not a collision center. the contact was referred to a collision center. the manufacturer was notified and advised the contact to make an appointment with another dealer. the vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. the failure mileage was 4,000.
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.
When pulling out of the driveway and going from reverse to drive the car stalled in the middle of the street. this happened a few weeks ago also. i called the dealersip and they said if the oil is low there is a safety feature that shuts down the engine. this car only has 3000 miles on it and is 3 months old. no engine light or warning ever came on. i checked the oil and it was a little low so i added a 1/2 a quart. in reading up on this vehicle it says it burns quite a bit of oil. this is unacceptable that the car burns this much oil and that the car will shut down if the oil is a little bit low. this is more of a safety hazard if the car shuts down while driving?
Front display panel flashes off and screen goes completely black then service engine light comes on and engine stalls. then a multitude of service alerts go across the screen and the display screen continues to flash on and off. have to transition the car out of drive and back into park in order to restart the car. happens more when car is at a stop light.

At around 5000 miles the oil pressure light flashes on and off when making turns. i took it to the dealership where i leased it from and they told me it was a "known" issue and to complain to chrysler. they checked my oil and it was nearly 3 quarts low. they then gave me the option to just add oil or since i was close to needing an oil change just to have them do that. both would be at my expense. they also recommended that i come back once a month and have oil added, also at my expense. i had them do the oil change but later in the day it wasn't sitting right with me. this is a brand new vehicle and also a lease, the problem needs to be fixed and if it can't then it sure as heck shouldn't be my problem. i am now afraid to drive the vehicle as i was told that it could stall at any given time and that i could blow my engine if i don't pay attention. i am going back to the dealership to speak with a manager but i just wanted others to be aware of this issue.
At around 5000 miles my jeep was almost completely out of oil. i brought this to the dealers attention at the first oil change. brought the jeep back after 2000 miles and again it was low (about 2 quarts). the service tech admitted it was burning oil but will not remedy the situation because it is within spec for chrysler ( burning 1 quart every 1000 miles).

This car burns oil which i was not told about by the dealer when purchasing. that in and of itself is a problem (i have since been told to check it every 1000 miles even though the manual says it can go 7500 w/o changing), but the real problem is when it gets low the car just turns off. no warning. luckily i was in a residential area when it happened, although it was an intersection. i was with my 3 year old and required help from a passerby to help push it to the curb. i could have been driving on a freeway with no shoulder as often happens on highway 1 where i live. this feature is dangerous! somebody is going to get hurt because of it. it is currently in the shop for some other problem where it wont start, which is also dangerous in it's own way.
