I HAD MY JEEP IN FOR REGULAR SERVICE & IT WAS DISCOVERED TO HAVE A RUSTED SUBFRAME. IT WAS SUGGESTED TO TAKE IT TO THE DEALER. I MADE THE APPOINTMENT. IT WAS EVALUATED & DETERMINED THAT MY VIN WAS NOT INCLUDED IN THE EXTENDED WARRANTY, EVEN THOUGH IT IS THE SAME ISSUE WITH PREMATURELY RUSTING. I CONTACTED JEEP CUSTOMER CARE ON TWO OCCASIONS, BUT THEY WILL NOT HELP. THE COST TO REPLACE THE SUBFRAME IS OVER $1,300. IT IS A SAFETY ISSUE & IF NOT REPAIRED WILL CONTINUE TO CORRODE & DIMINISH THE HANDLING OF MY JEEP AS WELL AS THE STRUCTURAL SUPPORT.

DRIVING MY CAR AND THE ENGINE REVVED, THE LIGHTNING BOLT LIGHT CAME ONE, AND THE LOST ABILITY TO MOVE AT MORE THAN 5MPH. I PULLED OFF THE ROAD AND LET IT SIT FOR A FEW MINUTES. STARTED IT BACK UP AND IT WAS FINE. GOT IT HOME AND TO THE DEALER THE NEXT DAY. DEALER ASSURED ME THEY KNEW EXACTLY WHAT IT WAS AND COULD FIX IT. GOT IT BACK A FEW DAYS LATER AND IT WAS FINE. FAST FORWARD A FEW MONTHS, MY TEENAGE DAUGHTER WAS DRIVING AND DID THE SAME THING. SHE MANAGED TO GET OFF THE ROAD, A 4 LANE MAJOR HIGHWAY, SAFELY AND CALL ME. CALLED THE DEALER AND HAD IT TOWED. WAS TOLD THEY CHECKED EVERYTHING OVER AND RESET THE COMPUTER IT SHOULD BE GOOD TO GO. AGAIN, CAR WAS FINE FOR A LITTLE WHILE AND THE WHOLE PROCESS STARTED OVER. AGAIN, THE THIRD TIME, HAD IT TOWED TO THE DEALER. THEY CALLED AND WERE UNABLE TO REPLICATE THE ISSUE AND COULD SEE NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. THEIR ADVICE WAS THE NEXT TIME IT HAPPENED TO LEAVE THE CAR RUNNING AND HAVE IT TOWED TO THEM STILL RUNNING SO THEY COULD SEE WHAT WAS GOING ON.THIS HAD BEEN GOING ON FOR 4 YEARS NOW. REALLY, THAT IS YOUR EXPERT ADVICE. I DO NOT DRIVE IT MUCH ANYMORE AND HAD TO PURCHASE A NEW CAR FOR MY DAUGHTER BECAUSE THIS THING IS A DEATH TRAP. CANT WAIT UNTIL THE DAY I CAN UNLOAD IT, WILL NEVER OWN ANOTHER JEEP IN MY LIFE.

HAS HAPPENED EVER SINCE THE JEEP HAD 50,000 MILES AND HAS CONTINUED TO THE POINT THE VEHICLE IS NO LONGER DRIVABLE AS OF JUNE 2020 (ISSUES BEGAN IN JAN 2019). EXTREME HESITATION HAS OCCURRED WHEN TRYING TO ACCELERATE ON AN ON-RAMP ALSO CREATING A SAFETY HAZARD AS TO NOT GET UP TO THE APPROPRIATE SPEED TO SAFELY MERGE WITH TRAFFIC.

I WAS DRIVING MY VEHICLE AT THE SPEED LIMIT (60-65 ON FREEWAY) THE TACHOMETER SOARED TO ABOUT 3500AND THE VEHICLE MADE A NOISE. IT LOST ALL POWER AND I HAD NO CONTROL. I ALMOST HIT ANOTHER MOTORIST TRYING TO GET OFF THE FREEWAY. WHEN I TURNED LEFT OR TRIED TO AT THE TOP OF THE EXIT THE VEHICLE WOULDN'T MOVE THAT'S WHEN THE TRANSMISSION TEMP INDICATOR LIGHT CAME ON. I FINALLY TURNED LEFT AND THE VEHICLE TRAVELED ABOUT 2-5 MPH. I STOPPED AT A GAS STATION AND LOOKED THE LIGHT UP IN THE OWNERS MANUAL. ACCORDING TO THE MANUAL IF YOU PUT THE VEHICLE IN NEUTRAL AND IDLE FOR A BIT THE LIGHT WILL GO OFF. WE DID SO AND THEN DROVE AROUND A BIT SENDING IT STILL WASN'T RIGHT WE THEN WENT TO A SERVICE STATION WHO PUT TRANNY FLUID IN IT. AND WE CONTINUED TO DRIVE HOME. ABOUT 3 HRS LATER, THE VEHICLE TACHOMETER STARTED TO CLIMB AGAIN. WE PULLED OVER AGAIN OFF THE FREEWAY IN SAFE LOCATION. I CALLED EMERGENCY ROADSIDE ASSISTANCE. VEHICLE WAS TOWED TO JEEP CHRYSLER DEALERSHIP. ONCE THE DEALERSHIP HAD TIME TO INSPECT THE VEHICLE I WAS TOLD THE CVT TRANSMISSION WAS RUINED. THIS IS THE FIRST TIME WE TOOK THIS VEHICLE ANYWHERE FURTHER THAN 20 MINS FROM HOME! THIS TRANSMISSION IS A KNOWN PROBLEM AS THE WARRANTY MANUAL STIPULATED. IT'S UNSAFE AS AND MY FAMILY LOST POWER AND ALMOST HIT A CAR WITHOUT ANY WARNINGS. I'VE CALLED CHRYSLER AND THEY WON'T DO ANYTHING ABOUT THIS ISSUE. ON THIS PARTICULAR DAY WE WERE IN HILLY SOUTHERN OHIO ON A HOT DAY. SERIOUSLY HOW IS IT FAIR OR EVEN LEGAL TO SELL SUCH A VEHICLE THAT WON'T STAND UP TO TYPICAL DRIVING CONDITIONS WITHOUT THREATENING MY LIFE? THIS TRANNY IS JUNK IT'S ALL OVER THE INTERNET. THE DEALER WE GOT OUR RENTAL CAR FROM SAID HE WOULDN'T BUY THEM OR SELL THEM BECAUSE THEY ARE A MECHANICAL DEFECT. I WANT THIS THING RECALLED BEFORE IT FAILS SOMEONE ELSE AND SOMEONE DIES IN THE ACCIDENT AS I ALMOST DID. 06/25/2019

2013 JEEP COMPASS TRANSMISSION FILL TUBE BROKE OFF. IT APPEARS TO BE A MANUFACTURER DESIGN DEFECT AS IT IS NOT IN A PLACE WHERE IT COULD BE BUMPED OR BROKEN DRIVING THE VEHICLE. DISCOVERED THE ISSUE DRIVING ON A CITY STREET AND HEARD A NOISE. I HAD NOT HIT A BUMP OR RUN OVER ANYTHING. AN ONLINE SEARCH SHOWED THAT THIS HAS HAPPENED OFTEN IN DIFFERENT JEEP MODELS 2011 AND LATER. DEALER REFUSES TO FIX IT DUE TO IT NOT BEING SPECIFIED IN THE WARRANTY. THERE IS NO REASON FOR IT TO BE IN THE WARRANTY AS IT IS NOT A SERVICEABLE PART AND SHOULD NEVER NEED TO BE REPLACED. WE CONTACTED A COUPLE OF OTHER AUTO SHOPS AND WERE TOLD EACH TIME THEY CAN'T FIX IT BECAUSE THEY DON'T EVEN HAVE THAT PART IN THEIR SYSTEMS AND HAVE NEVER HEARD OF THIS HAPPENING.

IN THE SUMMER OF 2016, THE CVT TRANSMISSION STARTED OVERHEATING. IT WAS A VERY DANGEROUS SITUATION, AS THE CAR WOULD LOSE POWER ON THE HIGHWAY. YOU WOULD HAVE TO COAST TO THE SHOULDER AND SIT THERE FOR 20 MINUTES FOR THE CAR TO COOL DOWN. HOWEVER, WHEN WE WOULD TAKE IT TO THE DEALER IT WOULD NOT SHOW ANY ERROR CODES. THIS HAPPENED MANY TIMES. WE FINALLY TOOK IT TO ANOTHER DEALER AND THEY HAD HEARD OF THIS ISSUE. IT WOULD HAPPEN VERY OFTENON DAYS WITH HIGH OUTSIDE TEMPS. THE OTHER DEALER REPLACED THE CVT TRANSMISSION LAST SUMMER UNDER WARRANTY. HOWEVER, THIS MAY AS SOON AS IT STARTED TO HEAT UP OUTSIDE, IT STARTED AGAIN.AGAIN NO CODES WHEN THEY CHECK. THIS IS HAPPENING EVERY DAY. NOW THE DEALER REFUSES TO HELP. FROM WHAT I HAVE FOUND ON THE INTERNET, THIS ISSUE IS WAY TO COMMON ON THIS TRANSMISSION.

THIS MORNING AS I WAS GETTING ON THE HIGHWAY, THE 'ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL' LIGHT CAME ON AND CAUSED MY CAR TO STALL TWICE. THE HIGHEST SPEED I WAS ABLE TO GO WAS 30 MPH.

THE CAR BEGAN TO DECELERATE RAPIDLY AND ON THE 30 MINUTE TRIP, I HAD TO TURN AROUND AND START GOING DOWN HILL AS THE CAR WOULD NO LONGER GO UP HILL. THE 2ND TIME, I HAPPENED TO BE BY A WALMART, AFTER A 3.5 HOUR DRIVE, GOING UPHILL FOR ABOUT 15 MINUTES AFTER DECELERATING TO ABOUT 30 MPH IN A 70 (3-5 DEGREE GRADE), AND BOUGHT SOME TRANSMISSION FLUID AND ADDED IT TO THE TRANSMISSION. IT APPEARED TO DO THE JOB ( THE REST OF THE TRIP WAS DOWNHILL), BUT ON THE RETURN TRIP HOME 3 DAYS LATER, 3.5 HOURS IN AND GOING UPHILL 3-5 DEGREE GRADE, THE CAR STARTED TO DECELERATE AND WOULD NOT GO ABOVE 50 MPH FOR THE REMAINDER OF THE TRIP (5 HOUR TOTAL TRIP ONE WAY). AFTER MAKING IT WITHIN 30 MILES OF BEING HOME, I STARTED RUNNING INTO SURFACE STREET TRAFFIC AND DURING THE STOP AND GO THE CAR WOULD ACCELERATE VERY SLOWLY AND SHOWED VERY LITTLE POWER. THE CAR HAS 76K MILES AND I WOULD NOT EXPECT THIS TO HAPPEN TO A RELATIVELY GENTLY USED CAR STILL UNDER WARRANTY.
