I have my 2018 jeep compass for literally 10 months now not even a year. bought the car in april of 2019 and it is now january 2020. i've taken my car approximately 2 times to the shop for routine maintenance. any time i put the car in reverse it jerks as if something underneath the car is about to fall out. when placed in drive it goes into some sort of limp mode where it does not want to go this has happened to me about 3 times now. twice in traffic! where i'm stalled out on the highway waving for people to go around. an absolute nightmare. as of last night i was parked at a grocery store about to pull off when the car jerked and shut off again. when i tried to turn the car back on the dash light started to go hay wire and the engine light popped on with the transmission light dinging red that the transmission needs servicing when i put the car in drive again it went no where.this is a huge burden in my life right now this is my only transportation to get my children and i back ...
Jeep compass problems with stalling and shutting off while driving
Since i've purchased the vehicle the emergency brakes comes on randomly. i can literally be driving and come to a stop sign and it comes on. this is unsafe and can cause others to hit you from behind. my car has also for the second time in one year had check engine and transmission light to come on. this should not take place with a brand new car.
The car stalls or does not start. when we hit the start button it clicks and then the display says the car is running. by no means is the car running. we have checked the battery and disconnected the battery to see if it would reset anything. no go. this has also been happening since we bought the vehicle two years ago. it has now decided it will not start at all.
My hill brake activates while i'm in traffic, making u-turns, and driving. i took it to the dealership in january and they couldn't replicate the problem so they couldn't resolve it. they had it from january 25th to february 14th. now my car isn't starting and the hill brake is activating. i got a new battery and an oil change on monday, december 23rd.
Well - this all started back in april of 2019 - when i took my jeep in - it would stall in the middle of a turn . around 5000 miles - now this is a lease vehicle - so i took the jeep in explained to the service manager at ray laethem what the vehicle was doing and he checked the oil and there was no oil in the engine - so we started an oil consumption test - nothing after that was recorded correctly - every time i took the jeep back a the 1000 miles the oil was low and they would say come back every 500 miles - til the 3rd time i took it in and the dealership said there was no oil used - and it was a quart low - i did check it before i took it in - it was low a quart low -also took to a different dealership northland jeep , chrysler . they also stated this is normal for the engine that is in my jeep. so i took the jeep back again to northland - requested to speak to the service manager ...
I purchased my jeep compass new. since i have had it, i have taken my 2018 jeep compass in for repair due to loss of oil several times. the loss of oil was first noticed before the first 2,000 miles on the car because of a ticking noise coming from the engine. this car has even stopped on me on while traveling out of town and the engine light comes on along with other lights. in this particular instance it did start back up eventually. when it did, the engine light stayed on the whole time. recently, (11/16/19), while driving the whole car shuts down in the middle of the street and the emergency brakes lock up. the car will not budge. in this instance the car had to be towed to the dealership. there have been so many issues with this car that i do not feel safe driving it. these issues seem to be completely random and without warning.
Purchased at the dealership @ 5k..engine stalled @ 18k miles as i was backing out of my driveway.. checked and there was no oil on stick.. had to buy oil twice just to take my jeep to be serviced and have an 'oil consumption test' performed multiple times, was told everything was fine.. 11k miles later..'service engine,' 'service transmission,' flashes on dash. no oil on stick within 400 miles of needing an oil change.. engine won't turnover/start. stranded with <30k miles & haven't had the vehicle a year.
What it rains the water comes into my trunk through the rear seatbelts.
It has shut down on me 4 times while driving. the emergency brake comes on by itself. the low oil pressure light came on the one time it shut down on me mid turn. which is not possible for low oil pressure. it usually shuts down while going 25 to 35 mph on a city street but has shut down on me while merging onto the expressway.
Problemas con el check engine se enciende la luz del panel y la luz de la transmisin
While driving my car and making a turn on a busy intersection in chicago my car completely shut off. it appears to be on, but i cannot accelerate. i turn the car off, there's a stall before my car completely restarts. no lights have come on at all. when the car finally comes back on, the emergency brake is activated and it takes some time to get it to turn off. i am not due for an oil change for at least another 2k miles.
The engine start stop technology is malfunctioning and causing the engine to turn off at unsafe times, after coming to a complete stop at an intersection when the vehicle begins to move again it makes it to the center of the intersection and the engine turns off and is difficult to start back up. the problem also seems to be linked to a issue with the engine over consuming oil.
Shortly after moving the vehicle while driving at times the engine will completely turn off leaving the vehicle unable to accelerate. the only way to turn the vehicle back on is to come to a complete stop place the vehicle in park and turn it back on. vehicle just hit 7000 miles complications started 2 weeks ago and it has happened 5x now
Buyers please be aware. aesthetically this vehicle is awesome. however, it is highly concerning when a vehicle a little over a year old has massive system failures.. my issues with the jeep compass trailhawk is recently while driving the vehicle would automatically shut down in the midst of driving. all systems would be completely dead. when i press the button to start the car it would nod never start back up. what makes matters worse is that when the system is dead there is no power no lights and i am unable to even steer the vehicle off the road. yesterday was the final straw for me . i almost lost my life on the highway when the car made a funny jerking sound and then all of a sudden it went dead in the middle of the road with other vehicle traveling at least 60 to 75 mph. i really thought i was going to die. i had to come out of the car instinctively i used the key fob to close the door and used the valet key to open the car and quickly went back in the vehicle to try to restart one the first try i ...
