Summary of Complaint

I have always been a jeep owner, Grand Cherokee, I decided to go with the Jeep Compass and i haven't had any issues until the beginning of the month. I changed the battery and still had the issue that the car wouldn't start. I brought to Chrysler Jeep and they changed the secondary battery and they reset it so i don't get the A symbol with exclamation point. Picked up my car from oil change, on my way i stopped at a traffic light at an intersection, it stalled on me. Completely turned off, the radio worked, the windows were able to go up and down. after a minute it turned back on. I brought it back to the dealer the next day, they had it for 4 hours and they said they didn't find anything wrong with the vehicle and they reset everything and i should be fine now. That Sunday, it stalled on me 3 times and this time it took 5-10 minutes before it restarted. It was the scariest moment in my life, i had my 6year old in my car and this car would not start. I brought it back to jeep on Monday the 25th and they still have it and they cant figure out what is wrong. they called me and said that they drove it and there is nothing wrong, i told them i do not want the car back until they fix it. now its Tuesday, and they still cant figure out the problem, this is a lease vehicle and they wont even give me a loaner until they find the problem. It just shuts off when you stop always at a traffic light. I told them the 3 things that popped up and they looked at me like im crazy...Service hill start system, service esc system and dynamic steering torque service req'd, they said no codes came up, then they said 2 codes came up but they still cant figure it out. It is dangerous for your car to stall without notice especially when you are leasing it expecting for it to be ok and no issues.

Summary of Complaint

On at least three separate occasions, without warning, the coolant sensor suddenly goes in to a false coolant temperature alarm as if the temperature has climbed to maximum heat. While the alarm is active, you are unable to accelerate and have no power steering. After a second, the alarm vanishes and coolant temperature gauge shows temperature back at normal operational level. This has happened while driving 65 MPH on a highway. This also happened while trying to make a left-hand turn at a busy intersection. This is quite frightening and if this were to occur at the wrong moment could easily result in an accident. Other owners of the same model vehicle have reported this exact same issue in online forums such as MyJeepCompass.com. In all reported cases, dealers and mechanics are unable to determine the problem after replacing the coolant sensor and trying every possible solution. I believe this is a software or firmware issue causing a false coolant temperature alarm to trigger. I reported this to Jeep and they only recommended bringing the vehicle to a local dealer.

Summary of Complaint

Blind Spot Warning message comes up "Blind spot temporarily unavailable". At this time the lights on each mirror freeze and stay on, and blinker will not turn off. This happens frequently when using the blinker and changing lanes on the interstate. You can sometimes touch blinker again and it will go off and the lights on mirror will then go off. However, sometimes you have no control of getting the blinker to shut off and lights to go off on mirrors. Problem was recreated once, and dealer thought they had it fixed. It started doing it again the next day. I took to dealer again and they could not recreate the problem. Since there is no recall on this issue, they are unable to locate what is causing this. I spoke with dealership again and they asked me to try to bring it in if possible, when problem occurs. I have agreed to do this. Dealership has been very helpful trying to get this problem figured out, but they haven't been able to get it corrected so far.

Summary of Complaint

Bought my 2019 Jeep Compass on May 21st, 2019 and it's been in and out of the dealership for the light on gear shift flickering, batteries not charging, radio would change itself, etc. Just in November 2020, I had to take it back to the dealership and get the computer component/frame replaced and that was at 40,000 something miles. Now, after driving this morning to do a couple of arrands in town, it will not do anything. Lights on the dash comes on, break is stiff, warning messages were popping up (like "steering torque service required" "anti-lock brake system service required" "ecs system need service" etc.), mileage on dash is flashing, gas reads full then it drops down to empty and then nothing, engine light stays on during this whole time, can't get gear shift to move out of park, auto start/stop light doesn't come on, brake comes on and off now can't get it turned off, traction is off and won't come on. The dash will read and show that the engine is on but won't turn over.

Summary of Complaint

I was driving with my daughter in the car and when the engine shut off on me. Luckily I was pulling up to a red light. I was able to stop but the brakes locked up on me and I couldn't restart the car. Many warning messages appeared like "steering torque service required" "anti-lock brake system service required" "ecs system need service" etc. I had just had my car serviced for a routine oil change a couple of days before at a Jeep dealership and nothing was mentioned to me that needed servicing. I then had the car towed to the dealership AutoNation Roseville Chrysler Jeep and Dodge and they do not know what is wrong with it. This is a real safety issue with a car shutting down while driving. I am just happy that I wasn't on the freeway when this happened.

Summary of Complaint

On 4 seperate occasions, I have been driving at highway or cruising speeds and my vehicle will completely shut down. The dash will illuminate that the Auto Stop/Start is not working, then it will say "Stop Safely, Vehicle Will Shut Down Soon" and the car will shut down. It will then take approximately 10-15 minutes for the car to restart. I have taken into my dealership every single time it happens; they've replaced main battery, auxillary battery, replaced battery terminals and have said it "was just a fluke". The light and issue have been reproduced only once by the dealership but no diagnostic codes appear when lights come on. Dealership states MOPAR/Jeep will not authorize repairs for undiagnosable issue as it's still under warranty. The last time this happened, I had my 5 month old son in the car and we shut down on the Tappan Zee bridge. It's happened on a small 2 lane road at 10pm, I now have flares in my car for this reason so I'm not rear ended as I fear for my life.

Summary of Complaint

1. I believe it's the "Auto Start-Stop" feature in the vehicle 2. While at a stoplight in a busy intersection, my vehicle has stopped twice, putting my children and myself in danger, making it a high risk for a serious accident with other motorists. This vehicle has also had a minor stall while driving on the highway. Luckily it didn't completely shut off but gave us a minor jerk. 3. Not at this time; the dealer has requested to test drive the vehicle for up to 200 miles to recreate the scenario. I don't believe 200 miles will recreate the scenario, especially when they say it could be the vehicle oil consumption. Since the first time we took it in, they lowered the recommended oil change by 3k or 4k instead of the original 5k. While in the care of the dealership on (6/15/2021) they made an oil change, so I am sure they will not encounter anything in this 200-mile test drive. 4. Yes, this is the second time the dealership has inspected the vehicle's issue with no response to why the dealership mechanics can't fix the issue. When will the manufacture take responsibility and recall the 2019 Jeep Compass. Why put people's lives at risk when informing the dealership of the dangers of this vehicle. 5. The Jeep Compass displayed no warning lamps; the vehicle just stalled.

Summary of Complaint

THE VEHICLE WONT START OCCASIONALLY. YOU CAN PRESS THE IGNITION, AND IT SAYS ITS ON, BUT THE ENGINE DOESNT TURN OVER. I HAVE NOTICED IT HAPPENS MORE OFTEN IF YOU 3NGAGE THE PARKING BRAKE WHILE YOUR FOOT IS ON THE BRAKE PEDDLE. TO "CORRECT" YOU HAVE TO TAKE YOUR FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, PRESS THE IGNITION BUTTON AGAIN UNTIL IT SHUTS OFF, AND THEN REAPPLY YOUR FOOT ON THE BRAKE DEPRESSING IT AS FAR AS YOU CAN PRESS IT AND THEN PRESS THE IGNITION BUTTON AGAIN. THERE IS A MOMENT OF HESITATION AND THEN IT STARTS UP. ADDITIONALLY THE CAR HAS SHUT OFF ON ME AT AN INTERSECTION WITH THE AUTO START FEATURE ON, AND WOULDNT RESTART WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE LIKE IT WAS SUPPOSED TO. I HAD TO FOLLOW THE SAME PROCEDURE DESCRIBE ABOVE TO "CORRECT" THE PROBLEM. BECAUSE OF THIS, I NO LONGER RUN THE CAR WITH THE AUTO START FEATURE BECAUSE ITS UNRELIABLE. ITS ALWAYS BEEN A BIT OF A ROUGH START WHENEVER I HAVE LEFT IT ON, CAUSING ME TO WONDER IF ITS ACTUALLY GOING TO START.
