2018 Jeep Compass

AFTER COMING TO A COMPLETE STOP AT A STOP SIGN, I STARTED TO TURN LEFT AND MY EMERGENCY BREAK ENGAGED, CAR STALLED, WOULD NOT START, ADVISERS ME TO PUT IN PARK AND HIT START/STOP BUTTON. I DID SO AND THEN THE BRAKE PEDAL HAD PRESSURE BENEATH IT WHERE I COULD NOT BRAKE AND BEGAN TO ROLL BACK NEARLY HITTING CAR BEHIND ME. FOR 5-10 MINUTES CAR WAS STALLED IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROA. TURNED CAR COMPLETELY OFF AND ENGINE LIGHT AND RED LIGHTING LIGHTS CAME ON. AFTER MY TOOLE ATTEMPTS TO RESTART CAR AND DISENGAGE EMERGENCY BRAKE, CAR STARTED AND COULD DRIVE MYSELF BACK HOME. I'M HESISTANT TO EVEN TAKE THE CAR IN, BECAUSE I'VE READ OF MULTIPLE REPORTS OF THIS OCCURRING TO OTHER DRIVERS WHILE AT HIGHWAY SPEEDS. I DON'T FEEL SAFE WITH THE CAR LOCKING UP AND FAILING TO WHERE I CAN EVEN BRAKE OR PULL TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD.

THE JEEP SAT FOR FOUR TO FIVE WEEKS DURING THE COVID-19 SHUT DOWN. IN APRIL WE STARTED TO DRIVE THE VEHICLE WITH ONLY 10,870 MILES ON IT AND DISCOVERED SERIOUS PULSATING WHEN BRAKING IN THE STEERING WHEEL AND DANGEROUS VIBRATION IN THE BRAKING ALTOGETHER. LIVONIA CHRYSLER JEEP SERVICE PERSON DROVE THE JEEP AND DETERMINED WARPED ROTORS.WOULD NOT REPAIR UNDER WARRANTY. CAR SITS MONTH AFTER MONTH UNABLE TO DRIVE WHILE PAYING LEASE PAYMENTS ON THE CAR.TOOK THE CAR TO SNETHCAMP TODAY 10-12-20 FOR AN APPOINTMENT SET UP BY KRIS IN JEEP CUSTOMER CARE. DEALERSHIP WILL NOT LOOK AT THE JEEP UNLESS I AGREE TO A $65.00 INSPECTION FEE. I REFUSE TO PAY ANYTHING FOR A DEFECTIVE LEASE VEHICLE REPAIR. THE JEEP IS STILL AT THE DEALERSHIP AND SO FAR NO RESOLUTION THROUGH CUSTOMER CARE AT FCA HAS OCCURRED. NO ISSUES WITH THE BRAKES OCCURRED BEFORE THE VEHICLE SAT FOR APPROX. 4 WEEKS. WHY IN THE WORLD WOULD WARPED ROTORS DUE TO NON USE OF THE VEHICLE BE THE RESPONSIBILITY OF THE PERSON LEASING THE VEHICLE WITH ONLY 10,870 MILE ON IT?SO FAR I HAVE MADE 7 PAYMENTS AND INSURANCE COSTS PER MONTH ON A VEHICLE FOR 7 MONTHS THAT CANNOT BE DRIVEN DUE TO INFERIOR MANUFACTURER PARTS. HELP!!!!

STARTING ABOUT 4-5 MONTHS AGO, WHEN COMING TO A STOP OR TAKING OFF FROM A STOP (COULD BE A LIGHT OR STOP SIGN) THE PARKING BRAKE WOULD ACTIVATE ON ITS OWN, MAKING THE CAR STALL. SOMETIMES I CAN MAKE IT TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD OTHER TIMES IT STOPS IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. THIS WOULD OCCUR ABOUT ONCE A MONTH RANGING FROM 5MPH TO 15MPH. STARTED AT ABOUT 34K MILES. TAKES ABOUT 5-10 MINUTES TO GET PARKING BRAKE TO GO OFF AND GET THE CAR RUNNING AGAIN. NOW JUST OVER 50K MILES IT HAS OCCURRED 3 TIMES IN THE PAST WEEK. FIRST TIME WAS TURNING LEFT AT A MAJOR INTERSECTION, PARKING BRAKE ACTIVATED MID TURN AND THE CAR STALLED, LUCKILY WAS ABLE TO ROLL TO THE OTHER SIDE AND MADE IT TO THE SHOULDER. THEN IT HAPPENED THE NEXT DAY COMING UP TO A MAJOR INTERSECTION AS I WAS SLOWING DOWN TO COME TO A STOP. PARKING BRAKE ACTIVATED, CAR STALLED, GOT A TRANSMISSION WARNING THEN A CHECK ENGINE LIGHT. I WAS STALLED AT THE LIGHT FOR APPROX. 5 MINUTES BEFORE GETTING THE PARKING BRAKE TO TURN OFF AND THE CAR TO START. IMMEDIATELY CALLED THE DEALER (CRESTVIEW FL DOGE JEEP RAM) AND WAS ADVISED TO BRING IT IN. DROPPED THE CAR OFF THAT EVENING. WAS ADVISED THE NEXT DAY MY OIL LEVEL WAS LOW AND THIS CAUSED EVERYTHING TO HAPPEN, BUT THEY COULDN'T DUPLICATE THE PARKING BRAKE ACTIVATING ON ITS OWN. ADVISED TO BRING BACK IF IT HAPPENS AGAIN. OCCURRED AGAIN DRIVING DOWN A SIDE ROAD AT ABOUT 20MPH 3 DAYS AFTER BEING AT THE DEALERSHIP. CAR IS SET TO GO BACK TO THE DEALERSHIP TOMORROW. HAVE ALSO FILED A COMPLAINT WITH JEEP, CURRENTLY WAITING FOR A RESPONSE. I'M SCARED FOR MY FAMILY/MYSELF/OTHERS ARE GOING TO BE SERIOUSLY INJURED WHEN THIS OCCURS AT A HIGHER RATE OF SPEED. THIS IS MY DAILY DRIVING VEHICLE AND I DRIVE ABOUT 30 MILES ONE WAY TO WORK ON MAJOR HIGHWAYS.

1) THE JEEP COMPASS WAS TRAVELING IN MOTION ON A FARM TO MARKET ROAD AND STALLED. IT COMPLETELY SHUT DOWN. NO STEERING, NO BRAKING. COMPLETE FAILURE. NO WAY TO SIGNAL OR LET OTHERS TRAVELING DOWN THE SAME HIGHWAY THAT THE VEHICLE WAS STALLED. 2) THE HOOD HAS POPPED OPEN WHILE TRAVELING DOWN A MAJOR HIGHWAY. 3) ALL THE ALARMS IN THE VEHICLE HAVE GONE OFF WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD. 4) THE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT AND ALARM HAS GONE OFF WHILE TRAVELING DOWN THE ROAD. 5) SETTINGS, SUCH AS PARK BRAKE AND RADIO, HAVE CHANGED INDISCRIMINATELY. **BY FAR, THE MOST SERIOUS AND DANGEROUS PROBLEM IS THE VEHICLE STALLING WHEN IN MOTION. THEN, IT WAS HARD TO RESTART, IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD!!**

I HAVE HAD THE CAR A YEAR AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE RANDOMLY COMES ON BY ITSELF WITHOUT HAVING TO PUSH THE EMERGENCY BRAKE BUTTON. IT USUALLY HAPPENS WHEN IN REVERSE OR JUST CRANKING THE VEHICLE. ALSO TONIGHT MY RADIO AND USB PORT COMPLETELY TURNED OFF LIKE I HAD TURNED MY CAR OFF, WHILE I WAS GOING DOWN THE ROAD AT 70 MPH. THEN IT TURNED BACK ON BY ITSELF LIKE I HAD JUST TURNED MY CAR ON, I WAS STILL DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD.

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.

THE VEHICLE AT ANY KNOWN TIME GOES INTO THE PARKING BRAKE MODE AND STALLS! THE DEALERSHIP DOES NOT RECOGNIZE THE PROBLEM AND TWICE WE WERE ADVISED TO CHANGE THE OIL? THE OIL CHANGES WHICH SHOULD NOT EVEN BE ENTERTAINED HAS ALWAYS BEEN KEPT UP TO DATE. MY QUESTION SHOULD WE CHANGE THE OIL BEFORE OR AFTER THE SEVERITY OF THE ACCIDENT THAT CAN OCCUR DUE TO THIS MALFUNCTION. AND WHY IS THIS NOT A RECALL THERE ARE SO MANY COMPLAINTS ONLINE PEOPLE EXPERIENCING SAME PROBLEM.ARE YOU WAITING TILL SOMEONE DIES BEFORE DOING SOMETHING ABOUT IT? THAT WOULD SURELY SORE SALES? NOT UNDERSTANDING HOW THIS IS GOING ON SO LONG.IT HAS OCCURRED ON THREE INCIDENTS NOW HIGHWAY AND SIDE STREET , IT SHOULD NOT MATTER IT IS EXTREMELY DANGEROUS!
