ENGINE
ENGINE STALLS AFTER REFILLING GAS TO "FULL" TANK. IT HAPPENS AFTER TANK REFILL ONLY. IT HAPPENS WITHIN A QUARTER MILE OF THE GAS STATION. TODAY IT HAPPENED WHILE I WAS IN TRAFFIC. I SEARCHED THIS ISSUE ONLINE AND THERE MULTIPLE REPORTS OF THE SAME ISSUE FOR COMPASSES AND PATRIOTS. I DON'T THINK THERE IS A DEPENDENCY ON SPEED. IT IS MORE LIKELY THE TIME AFTER REFILLING AND STARTING ENGINE.

FRONT SUBFRAME ROTTED OUT ON 2009 WITH ONLY 90,000 MILES. THIS IS A SAFETY ISSUE IF DRIVING AND BRAKES, WHICH COULD CAUSE SERIOUS INJURY AND/OR DEATH TO MYSELF OR OTHERS. MY MECHANIC SAID THIS SHOULD NOT BE THIS ROTTED FOR A CAR OF THIS AGE. I BROUGHT IT TO MECHANIC FOR LEAKING OIL, AND WHEN HE LIFTED IT HE SAW RUST. THE OIL PAIN IS NOW GETTING REPLACED FOR CORROSION.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM, ENGINE, POWER TRAIN
VEHICLE TRANSMISSION WOULD JERK OR BUMP HARD ENOUGH FOR SEAT BELT TENSION SYSTEM TO JERK YOU INTO THE SEAT. WOULD MOSTLY HAPPEN AT A CONSTANT 30 MPH OR LOWER SUCH AS A SCHOOL ZONE. ALTHOUGH WOULD ALSO HAPPEN AT HIGHER SPEEDS ON ACCELERATION SUCH AS ON RAMP OR PASSING ANOTHER VEHICLE. AFTER A FEW WEEKS OF THIS AND AFTER A TOUCH SCREEN SAFETY UPDATE TO KEEP THE DISPLAY FROM FLASHING FULL BRIGHTNESS AT NIGHT, THE VEHICLE WAS SLOWING DOWN TO TURN INTO PRIVATE ENTRY OF WORK (GATE THAT REQUIRES RFID BADGE) AND SHUT OFF COMPLETELY IN MIDDLE OF THE ROAD WITHOUT WARNING. VEHICLES HAD TO SWERVE OUT OF THE WAY TO MISS FROM HITTING US AT ONLY 3500 MILES ON THE VEHICLE. LUCKY WE WERE ONLY DOING AROUND 20 MILES AN HOUR AND HAD OUR BLINKER ON. THE TECH THAT TOOK 22 DAYS TO WORK ON THE MOTOR OF THE VEHICLE AND TOLD US THE MOTOR TURNED IT SELF OFF AFTER THE VEHICLE OIL PRESSURE DROPPED TO 5 PSI DUE TO A PLASTIC PART IN ENGINE CLOGGING. I ASKED WHY THE LOW OIL PRESSURE LIGHT DID NOT COME ON AND HE SAID IT IS NOT DESIGNED TO COME ON UNTIL 3 PSI AND IT WILL NEVER SHOW CAUSE THE ENGINE IS SUPPOSE TO TURN OFF FIRST. THIS IS A BIG SAFETY ISSUE YOU HAVE A VEHICLE THAT CAN TURN OFF WITHOUT WARNING ON LOW OIL LEVEL OR LOW OIL PSI. ON NEARLY ANY OTHER VEHICLE ON THE MARKET IF YOU HAVE AN 18 WHEELER COMING UP BEHIND YOU AT HIGH SPEED AND GOING TO HIT YOU AND YOU HEAR A DING AND SEE YOU HAVE LOW OIL YOU CAN SPEED UP AND GET TO A SAFE DISTANCE TO PULL OVER OR PULL OVER RIGHT THEN AND TURN OFF THE MOTOR TO KEEP FROM MESSING IT UP. JEEP HAS DECIDED THAT THEIR MOTOR IS WORTH MORE THEN THE LIFE OF THE PEOPLE DRIVING THEM. YOU SHOULD HAVE A CHOICE FOR WHEN THE VEHICLE TURNS ITSELF OFF IN ORDER TO BE ABLE TO DRIVE IT SAFELY AND TO BE ABLE TO MAKE INFORMED CHOICES. YOU HAVE LOW BATTERY ALERT LOW FUEL ALERT TO LET YOU KNOW WHEN IT MAKE TURN OFF AND WHY BUT THEY DESIGNED IT TO TURN OFF WITHOUT ALERTS

VEHICLE LEASED NEW BEGAN TO HAVE GRUMBLING, LOAD HUMMING NOISE COMING FROM TRANSMISSION AT 37MPH. TOOK TEST DRIVE IN ANOTHER VEHICLE SAME NOISE. JEEP SAID KNOWN ISSUE WAITING FOR UPDATE. TOOK VEHICLE BACK TO DEALER UPDATED TRANSMISSION AND DRIVE LINE MODULE. NOISE STILL THERE, IF VECHILE PLACED IN 4X4 OR ESC TURNED OFF NOISE WILL DISAPPEAR. NOISE SOUNDS LIKE IT CAN BE DRIVELINE OR TRANSMISSION NOT IN RIGHT GEAR. CAR IS NOT SHIFTING CORRECTLY AND RPM GOES HIGH. VEHICLE HAS STALLED OUT A FEW TIMES FOR NO REASON CAR WAS STATIONARY WITH FOOT ON BRAKE AND THE AUTO START OFF DISABLED. HEATED STEERING WHEEL AND SEATS GET EXTREMELY HOT. SHUT DOWN ON THERE OWN AT TIMES FOR NO REASON. POOR GAS MILEAGE IS RELATED TO ENGINE, TRANSMISSION AND DRIVELINE PROBLEMS

TWICE THE VEHICLE HAS STALLED AT A STOP SIGN. THE D ON THE GEAR SHIFT AND THE DASHBOARD FLASH AND IT SAYS PUT THE CAR IN PARK. THEN IT SAYS PRESS THE BRAKE AND PUSH START. AFTER THE CAR RESTARTS AND YOU BEGIN TO DRIVE IT FLASHES LOW OIL PRESSURE. THE THIRD TIME IT HAPPENED WE WERE DRIVING. THE LOW OIL PRESSURE FLASHED AND IT FELT KIND OF LIKE THE CAR WAS DRAGGING. WE HAD SLOWED TO MAKE A LEFT TURN AND THE CAR STALLED OUT. THE D ON THE GEAR SHIFTER AND THE DASHBOARD FLASHED AND IT SAID PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND THEN HOLD BRAKE AND PRESS START. THIS TIME WHEN I PRESSED THE START BUTTON IT SEEMED LIKE IT KEPT TRYING TO START THE CAR. I HAD TO PRESS THE BUTTON AGAIN TO MAKE IT STOP MAKING THAT SOUND.

WHILE DRIVING ON INTERSTATE CAR DECIDED TO GO INTO LOW SPEED TWICE NO ALMOST CAUSING A REAR-ENDED COLLISION THANKFULLY DRIVER BEHIND WAS PAYING ATTENTION AND I ONLY RECEIVED ROAD RAGE FROM DRIVER.

ELECTRONIC STABILITY CONTROL (ESC), UNKNOWN OR OTHER
I AM STILL IN SHOCK AND STILL QUITE SHAKEN UP ON THE MORNING OF TUES., 9/25/2018, WHEN AS USUAL GOT OUT OF MY HOME INTO MY JEEP TO GO TO WORK A FEW MINUTES BEFORE 6 AM. I CAREFULLY AT THE ENTRANCE AND EXIT OF MY COMMUNITY, I WAIT FOR ONGOING TRAFFIC TO BE FAR ENOUGH FOR ME TO DRIVE TOWARDS THE BLVD. AS MY JEEP STARTED TOWARDS PART OF THE BOULEVARD ALL OF SUDDEN, THE ENGINE STOPPED AS I DID NOT PRESS THE BYPASS BUTTON SO THE JEEP WENT INTO SLEEP MODE, WHEN I PRESSED THE BUTTON, IT READ," PUT VEHICLE ON PARKING MODE TO RESTART". MY HEART ALMOST CAME OUT OF MY MOUTH BECAUSE IF THERE WAS TRAFFIC ON MY LEFT I DEFINITELY WOULD HAVE BEEN KILLED BY THE ONCOMING TRAFFIC THAT WAS HEADING TOWARDS ME FROM THE LEFT, I PLACED THE JEEP IN PARK, I THEN PLACED IT ON DRIVE AND HEADED TO THE DIVIDER OF THE INTERSECTION. IN TEARS, I TURNED BACK HOME AND LEFT THE JEEP IN THE DRIVEWAY. I CALLED GREENWAY IMMEDIATELY TO REPORT THE INCIDENT. I HAVE A COPY OF MY CONVERSATION WITH THE GREENWAY DODGE, CHYRSLER, JEEP AND RAM SERVICE OPERATOR ON TUESDAY, SEPTEMBER 25, 2018,. A SERVICE APPT WAS SET FOR 9/29/18,AT GREENWAY. MY HUSBAND AND I WERE TOLD BY SERVICE TECH THAT THERE WAS NO BYPASS INTERCEPTION TO REMOVE THE FEATURE FROM THE JEEP SHUTTING DOWN THE ENGINEWHILE IN A DRIVE MODE. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS JEEP & THAT I WOULD NOT GO THROUGH WHAT I WENT THROUGH ON THAT MORNING. I AM ALIVE TO TELL EVERYONE OF WHAT HAPPENED TO ME AND NOT GOT KILLED DUE TO THE SPECIAL FEATURE THIS JEEP HAS TO CONSERVE GAS. THE ENGINE JUST SHUTS DOWN WHILE IN A DRIVE MODE. WE WERE TOLD THAT THERE WAS NO BYPASS INTERCEPTION TO REMOVE THE FEATURE FROM THE VEHICLE GOING INTO A PAUSE MODE WHEN WAITING FOR THE LIGHT TO CHANGE, OR WHEN THERE IS TRAFFIC JEEP COMPLETELY STALES WHEN IN DRIVE MODE. I AM THE OWNER OF THE VEHICLE AND WISH TO SURRENDER MY JEEP BECAUSE I NO LONGER FEEL SAFE DRIVING IT.

ENGINE
AROUND 8:50AM OCTOBER 4TH, 2018 MY WIFE AND BABY WERE AT A CITY STREET RED LIGHT STOPPED AND UPON ACCELERATING THE CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF AND THE STEERING-WHEEL LOCKED UP. AFTER ABOUT 5 MINUTES SHE WAS ABLE TO START IT UP AGAIN. WE LIVE IN THE CITY SO THIS COULD HAVE BEEN MUCH WORSE AT ANY DIFFERENT LIGHT AT ANY TIME OF DAY. I BROUGHT IT IN FIRST THING THE NEXT MORNING TO THE DEALERSHIP AND WAS TOLD THAT LOW OIL CAN CAUSE AIRPOCKETS IN THE ENGINE SHUTTING THE WHOLE VEHICLE OFF. THE JEEP TECH SAID "THIS HAS BEEN SEEN A LOT ON NEWER JEEPS IN THESE MULTI-AIR ENGINES. PEOPLE COME IN FOR THE SAME REASON AND HAVE NO INDICATION OF WHAT CAUSED IT. WHEN THEY FIRST CAME OUT WE HAD TO DIAGNOSE A LOT AND 99.9% OF THE TIME THAT IS THE CAUSE." MY CAR WAS AT ~11,200 MILES, AND MY OIL CHANGE STICKER SUGGESTED ~11,600 TO GET IT CHANGED AGAIN. I HAD NO OIL LIGHT, LET ALONE WASN'T EVEN CLOSE TO THE CERTIFIED TECH'S OIL CHANGE STICKER THAT IS PLACED ON THE CAR. THIS IS COMPLETELY UNSAFE AND NOT ACCEPTABLE. THE TECH SUGGESTED KEEPING A QUART OF OIL IN MY CAR AND CHECKING THE OIL EVERY 1-2K MILES (IN A BRAND NEW VEHICLE!). THE DEALERSHIP GM CALLED ME AND ASKED IF I WANTED TO TRADE IN MY VEHICLE FOR ITS WORTH TO GET ME IN SOMETHING ELSE SINCE I WASN'T SATISFIED, BASICALLY BRUSHING OFF THE MAJOR ISSUE AT HAND. I EXPLAINED I WANT THIS VEHICLE GONE AND REFUNDED COMPLETELY. HE MENTIONED I COULD TRY MY LUCK WITH THE FCA. I PUT IN A COMPLAINT THROUGH JEEP, AND A REP BY THE NAME OF STEVE STANDER CALLED 4 TIMES THROUGHOUT THE FOLLOWING WEEK AND LEFT NO VOICEMAIL. I LOOKED UP HIS # TO VERIFY HE WAS CALLING FROM CHRYSLER. STARTING FROM THE FIRST MISSED CALL I LEFT HIM A VOICEMAIL TELLING HIM THE BEST TIME WAS ANY TIME AFTER 12:30PM PST. THE NEXT 3 ATTEMPTS HE MADE WERE STILL IN THE EARLY MORNING, IGNORING MY VM'S.

SEVERAL DAYS AGO WHILE ON THE EXPRESSWAY, MY JEEP COMPASS WOULD NOT BRAKE AT ALL. WE WERE FORCED TO PULL OFF ON THE MEDIAN LEFT SIDE UNTIL IT STOPPED.. TWO DAYS AGO, OCTOBER 10TH, WHEN PULLING INTO A PARKING LOT, WITH BRAKE DEPRESSED, THE CAR LURCHED FORWARD AND HIT A SIGN JUST MISSING A TREE. THE PASSENGER FRONT RIGHT SIDE, DOOR, BACK DOOR, AND REARVIEW MIRROR WERE DAMAGED. THIS WAS THE SECOND INCIDENT. VERY SCARY AND LUCKILY NO ONE WAS HURT.

MALFUNCTION INDICATOR LIGHT IS ON, RIGHT SIDE OF RPM GAUGE IS LITE UP WITH THREE BARS. VEHICLE HAS LARGE CLUNK WHEN TURNING CORNERS AND ACCELERATING, ATTEMPTS TO STALE AT LOW SPEEDS. NOTE I TURN OFF THE STOP/START SWITCH AS I DO NOT LIKE IT TO TURN OFF AT STOP SIGNS. THE VEHICLE ACTS LIKE IT IS STILL ON. THE DEALER SAID IT COULD NOT LOOK AT MY CAR FOR TWO WEEKS. THE VEHICLE HAS 2,496 MILES ON IT. THEY TOLD ME THE FIRST TIME I COMPLAINED THAT I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PROPERLY DRIVE AND I HAVE BEEN DRIVING FOR 40 YEARS. VEHICLE IS DANGEROUS FOR STALLING OUT EVEN AT SPEEDS OF 10-20 MPH. WHEN I SHIFT FROM PARK TO DRIVE IN MY GARAGE, IT FEELS LIKE THE REAR END IS GOING TO BUST THROUGH THE FLOOR BOARDS.

BROUGHT MY VEHICLE IN FOR WHAT I THOUGHT WAS A BAD BALL JOINT ON THE FRONT DRIVER'S SIDE. I WAS TOLD MY SUBFRAME IS COMPLETELY RUSTED OUT IN THAT SPOT. IT'S SO BAD THAT THE MECHANIC ISN'T SURE HE CAN ACTUALLY FIX IT. I FOUND OUT THAT THIS IS SO COMMON THAT CHRYSLER EXTENDED WARRANTIES FOR EVERYONE, BUT DIDN'T OFFER A RECALL. NOT ONLY THAT, BUT THEY ONLY OFFERED THIS FOR A SET TIME OF 120 MONTHS. YOU WOULD THINK THEY WOULD HAVE NOTIFIED PEOPLE OF THIS SO THEY COULD HAVE IT REPAIRED. INSTEAD, THOSE OF US WHO HAPPEN TO HAVE AN INCIDENT AFTER THE TIME FRAME ARE NOW OUT OF LUCK AND OUT OF A LOT OF MONEY TO (HOPEFULLY) REPAIR THE PROBLEM. DISAPPOINTING TO SAY THE VERY LEAST.

SUSPENSION
DURING VEHICLE INSPECTION THE REAR CROSS MEMBER WAS FOUND TO HAVE RUSTED THROUGH. THE FRONT CROSS MEMBER HAD THE SAME PROBLEM AND WAS REPLACED IN 2016 UNDER A CAMPAIGN THROUGH JEEP. NOT A RECALL THOUGH. NOW TWO YEARS LATER THE REAR HAS THE SAME PROBLEM BUT IT IS NOT COVERED BECAUSE IT HAD A TEN YEAR EXPIRATION FROM DATE OF MANUFACTURE. THIS IS A KNOWN DEFECT FROM JEEP AND SHOULD NOT HAVE HAD A TIME LIMIT PLACED ON IT. THEY SHOULD HAVE BEEN RECALLED AND REPLACED. JEEP KNOWS THEY ARE DEFECTIVE ITS JUST A MATTER OF TIME.
