2019 Jeep Compass

I BOUGHT MY JEEP MARCH 2019 AND HAVE NEVER HAD AN ISSUE. THEN A FEW MONTHS LATER THE RADIO STARTS PRESSING BUTTONS BY ITSELF. I TOOK IT TO THE LOCAL DODGE AND THEY SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT. THE NEXT THING TO GO WRONG IS THE AUTO START STOPS WORKING. I GOT STUCK AT SEVERAL RED LIGHTS AND ALMOST REAR ENDED A FEW TIMES. I TOOK IT BACK TO DODGE AND THEY STILL SAID THERE WAS NOTHING WRONG WITH IT AND IT DIDNT THROW ANY CODES AT ADVANCED AUTO. THEN LASTLY, IT FINALLY GOES OUT. THE VEHICLE COMPLETELY SHUTS OFF ON MY IN THE MIDDLE OF DRIVING IN THE MIDDLE OF THE ROAD. IT JUST STOPS. BREAKS SEIZED. LIGHTS FLICKERING OFF AND ON. CAR IS REGISTERED AS ON BUT WONT GO ANYWHERE. IT HAS BEEN ABOUT 3 WEEKS NOW AND IT STILL WONT START NOR EVEN SHOW A LIGHT ON THE DASH. NOW THAT I ONLY HAVE AN EXTENDED WARRANTY LEFT THEY ARE NKW SAYING I HAVE TO PAY 3I FOR A NEW ECU OUT OF POCKET. HOW IS THIS FAIR. I BOUGHT A NEW VEHICLE SO I WOULDNT HAVE THESE ISSUES. I STILL OWE 29K ON SOMETHING I CANT AMUSE EVER AGAIN.

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.

VEHICLE PURCHASED NEW, STILL UNDER WARRANTY SUDDENLY QUITS RUNNING WHILE IN TRAFFIC TRAVELING AT 30-50 MPH, ON A COUNTY ROAD, VEHICLE WAS STILL RECEIVING POWER HOWEVER WONT RESTART. BROUGHT TO THE DEALER WERE IT WAS PURCHASED. DIAGNOSED AS A FAULTY PCM AND ESD. REPAIRED AFTER WAITING TWO WEEKS FOR THE PARTS. DROVE IT OFF THE LOT LESS THAN 3 BLOCKS AND IT HAPPENED AGAIN. THIS SHOULD BE A SAFTEY RECALL STOPPING IN A STREAM OF TRAFFIC SUDDENLY.

I COMPLAINED ABOUT ENGINE TAPPING SOON AFTER BUYING THE BRAND NEW CAR IN AUGUST 2019 NOTHING WAS DONE. 5/9/20 I ATTEMPTED TO DRIVE THE CAR AND AS I GOT READY TO PULL INTO A BUSY STREET THE TRUCK CUT OFF AND THE PARKING BREAK ENGAGED. IT TOOK ME 5 MINS TO GET IT RESTARTED AND ATTEMPTED TO BACK UP AND IT CUT OFF AGAIN. MY BREAKS HAVE BEEN FEELING AS THOUGH THEY ARE GRINDING. MY CLOCK HAS CHANGED TIME ON THE TRUCK FROM REGULAR TIME TO MILITARY TIME. WHEN MOVING MY CAR INTO DRIVE MY CAR JERKS VIOLENTLY. *TR

TL* THE CONTACTS WIFE OWNS A 2018 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED THAT WHILE DRIVING 30 MPH, THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED AND THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT STATED THAT THE FAILURE RECURRED 6 TIMES. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO CROTON AUTO PARK (1 MUNICIPAL PL, CROTON ON HUDSON, NY 10520, (914) 271-5100) ON TWO OCCASIONS TO BE DIAGNOSED AND REPAIRED. THE CONTACT WAS INFORMED THAT THE PCV VALVE NEEDED TO BE REPLACED AND SECONDARILY, AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST NEEDED TO BE PERFORMED AT 500 MILE INTERVALS UP TO 1,500 MILES. THE PCV VALVE WAS REPLACED HOWEVER, A DETERMINATION WAS NOT MADE REGARDING THE OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 18,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS OUR NEWLY LEASED 2019 JEEP COMPASS STALLED WHILE AT HIGH SPEED. WE ALL HAD TO PULL OVER WITH OUT POWER STEERING. THIS HAPPENED SHORTLY AFTER WE PULLED OUT ON TO A MAIN ROAD FROM OUR NEIGHBORHOOD.*DT CONSUMER STATED YES, I TOOK IT TO VICTOR DODGE JEEP DEALERSHIP WHERE I LIVE AND GOT THE CAR. THEY SAID IN WAS DOWN A QUART OF OIL. FILLED IT AND SAID TO RETURN AT 7,500 MILES SO THEY COULD CHECK THE LEVEL AGAIN. I WOULD SAY THE VEHICLE WAS AT 45 MPH. THERE WAS AN OIL PRESSURE LIGHT THAT CAME ON WHEN THE CAR WAS STARTED UP. BUT IT WENT OFF RIGHT AWAY. *JB

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING 40 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. ONCE IT WAS RESTARTED, THE VEHICLE FUNCTIONED NORMALLY. THE VEHICLE WAS CURRENTLY AT JOEY ACCARDI CHRYSLER, DODGE, JEEP, RAM (909 FEDERAL HWY, POMPANO BEACH, FL 33062, (954) 943-6700) WAITING TO BE DIAGNOSED. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT MADE AWARE OF THE FAILURE. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS APPROXIMATELY 1,200.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING APPROXIMATELY 35 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED WITHOUT WARNING. THE CONTACT PULLED OVER TO THE SIDE OF THE ROAD AND WAS ABLE TO RESTART THE VEHICLE. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO WALLY ARMOUR CHRYSLER DODGE JEEP RAM (1950 W STATE ST, ALLIANCE, OH 44601) WHERE IT WAS DETERMINED THAT THE OIL LEVEL WAS LOW, WHICH CAUSED THE VEHICLE TO STALL. THE DEALER INSTRUCTED THE CONTACT TO BRING THE VEHICLE BACK TO THEM AFTER 500 MILES FROM THE LAST OIL CHANGE FOR MONITORING AND AN OIL CONSUMPTION TEST. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURE. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 4,000. THE VIN WAS UNAVAILABLE.

ON THREE SEPARATE OCCASIONS WHILE COMING TO A STOP THE BRAKES STARTED TO PULSATE, ONCE STOPPED THE CAR STALLED AND ENGAGED THE PARKING BRAKE ALL BY ITSELF AND WOULD NOT ACCELERATE OR GO INTO PARK OR TURN OFF, FOR 7 MINUTES WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION. ALSO, SCREEN DISPLAY JUMPS BETWEEN APPS ON ITS OWN AND WON'T ALLOW ME TO CHANGE OR TOUCH ANYTHING ON THE SCREEN, GLITCHES AND HOLDS TWO APPS AT ONCE FOR EXTENDED PERIODS OF TIME.

MAJOR ISSUE! THIS IS APPARENTLY KNOWN BY JEEP AS THEY HAVE ISSUED A RECALL. YET IT IS HAPPENING TO ADDITIONAL MODELS OUTSIDE THE SCOPE OF THE ISSUED RECALL. 2019 JEEP COMPASS 2.4L. THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH. THE VEHICLE IS BRAND NEW WITH ONLY 200 MILES. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ONLY 10 DAYS AGO. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK AND RETURNED IT, WHICH WAS QUITE THE HEADACHE TO GET THE DEALER TO DO. I BASICALLY TRADED IT IN FOR A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE SO TO AVOID THE 2.4L ENGINE. I AM OUT QUITE A BIT OF MONEY IN PAYING TAXES, FEES, REGISTRATION, TILE,ETC TWICE DUE TO THIS ISSUE. IN DOING SOME RESEARCH, THIS SEEMS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM IN BOTH THE JEEP COMPASS AND THE JEEP CHEROKEE IN REGARDS TO THE 2.4L 4 CYLINDER ENGINE. JEEP HAS ISSUED A RECALL ON THE CHEROKEE. THEY NEED TO DO THE SAME ON THE COMPASS. STAY AWAY FROM THE 2.4L 4 CYLINDER ENGINE AT ALL COSTS.
