2019 JEEP COMPASS Electrical System Problems

My vehicle has experienced multiple incidents of sudden engine shutdown while driving, accompanied by a dashboard warning stating “High Coolant Temperature.” These shutdowns occur without warning and while the vehicle is in motion, resulting in loss of engine power and creating a dangerous situation in traffic. The error immediately goes away making it difficult to record in enough time. Authorized repair centers have been unable to recreate the issue due to no fault codes present

Three times since 8/2025 the vehicle flashed a “coolant temperature too high” warning despite the gauge reading normal and no check engine light. Coolant reservoir was at appropriate line. This immediately caused the vehicle to enter limp mode after idling in the drive thru. The vehicle remained in drive with full power but would not allow me to drive or shift to park until i turned the vehicle off. It would restart and allow me to drive. The 4th incident happened 12/13/25. I was at a red light, idling, and when green light came my vehicle flashed the coolant temperature warning and would not allow me to drive. I was stuck in traffic for 5 mins and had to shut my car off to be able to drive. Thankfully in this situation the person behind me was paying attention and did not slam into me. I recently had the main battery replaced. On my way home last night the warning flashed and my car abruptly went into limp Mode while I was actively driving in busy traffic. Thankfully it did not stall and I was able to turn right into a business parking lot. The last two situations could have resulted in accidents and / or injuries and should not be looked over.

The Electric throttle body malfunctioned and as a result the vehicles battery completely died, the vehicle was reported not going over 45mph and the break pedal was not going down and not starting the vehicle. After vehicle was stated "it felt unsafe to drive", the problem was confirmed by a vehicle code scanner. Dashboard was lit up like a Christmas tree.

Car will intermittently get a message saying coolant temp high and the vehicle completely shuts down. It takes about 30 seconds before it is able to be restarted and is able to drive again. It appears to be related to the start/stop feature, because that is the only time we see it. It can happen within one mile of driving from home, so the vehicle isn't even up to full temperature. I have replaced both the primary and AUX batteries, the issue remains. The coolant level is fine. I took it to the dealer a couple weeks ago and they found no trouble and did a coolant flush, but the issue happened again today. My main issue with this is that the vehicle is my [XXX] daughters car and I don't want something to happen when she is on a busy road with drivers going 50 mph or more. I have read online and it looks like several people are experiencing this problem. [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Touch Screen radio is selecting items on its own including altering vehicle settings and making phone calls.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that the U-Connect system touch screen had been engaging vehicle functions unintendedly. The contact stated that the system engaged the heating system, the braking mode system, and other unknown functions while driving. The message "Unable to Engage Service Brake Mode While Driving" was displayed. The dealer was notified of the failure, but the contact was unable to schedule a service appointment because the call was disconnected. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 106,000.

Mileage: 106,000

traveling approximately 45-50 mph on two lane road (speed limit 55...had just accelerated from a 4 way stop) I had only been on the road leaving my residence for about 7 minutes. the display showed the temperature gauge rise all of the way to the top, the error message stating "high coolant temperature' (along those lines) and the car jerked enough to cause a decrease in speed. I was almost rear ended. This is a dangerous issue. Ive looked at several forums where they were reported (hopefully to NHTSA as well) to dealers and they had not found a reason yet. batteries (aux and regular) were replaced last fall. PLEASE tell me it wont take someone getting seriously injured for something to be done.

Vehicle: 2019 Jeep Compass Mileage (approx): 84,000 miles Issue Type: RANDOM - Electrical failure causing loss of power, brake lock, steering disablement Car is currently at an auto electric shop but can be available if needed. Description of Issue: I’ve been experiencing a recurring and dangerous issue with my 2019 Jeep Compass since around 2021. Every 6–8 months (sometimes more frequently), the vehicle suddenly lights up with every warning signal (check engine, brakes, power steering, airbag, traction, ABS, etc.). The brakes lock up, the power steering shuts down, and the car either dies immediately or will not restart for hours or even days. The issue is completely random and happens whether the car is driving or idling. There’s no apparent correlation with temperature, mileage, or usage. It happens when I'm at a red light, parked and my last incident happen the highway with both my boys in the car. (age [XXX] and [XXX] ) I’ve taken the car to the dealership a couple times, including having it towed in when it would not start. However, by the time they inspect it, the car resets itself, and I’m told they “can’t find the problem.” They’ve held it for weeks without results. This issue is not only unpredictable but highly dangerous. Losing steering and braking while on the road creates serious safety risks for myself, my family, and other drivers. From my own research and symptoms, this could be related to the TIPM or BCM malfunctioning — both of which I’ve read are common in Jeep models. Please investigate this issue, as it appears systemic and unresolved through regular service channels. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Batteries are constantly draining causing multiple failures with no warning such as hill assist, traction control, abs, steering, brake, 4 wheel drive and turn signal lights. I have had to replace both batteries every year since purchasing the vehicle. Date is happened is the most recent event. This happens yearly. The car will start violently shaking and loud clunking

This has happened three times in the last 4 months. There is no pattern, rhyme, or reason to understand why this happens. Today, while driving on the interstate at approximately 60mph, My 2019 Jeep Compass (80k miles) jerked violently and displayed the “Engine Coolant Temp High” warning message while the temperature gauges spiked. I coasted off to the shoulder. This could have caused an accident.

every time i turn on the car the parking brake is on and it also turns on while im driving and it causes the car to stall while in motion.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while driving at an undisclosed speed, the instrument cluster failed to function as intended. The contact stated that the instrument cluster displayed a black screen. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or the dealer. In addition, the contact stated that the dealer had replaced the instrument cluster twice since the vehicle was purchased. The first instrument cluster replacement was in March 2022. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and a case was filed. The failure mileage was approximately 51,000.

Mileage: 51,000

My Uconnect screen has distortion and can't view rear camera when backing up. I feel this is a safety feature that many people are having since I see people trying to repair on the Interweb. I feel manufacturers should cover anything safety for an extended period compared to regular warranty items.

When starting my 2019 Jeep Compass an error message stated "coolant temperature high" and "service brake system." It then sputtered and shut down. I waited a minute and then restarted the vehicle. There was a lag for the car to start and then it went back to normal and no codes were present.

The radio became scrambled and it is malfunctioning. it puts others at risk due to rear camera not working control of heated seats and steering wheel ect. i have read multiple reports of others who have had the same issue

On 4 separate occasions over a 5 day period, the electronic parking brake system spontaneously engaged. This caused the vehicle to lose power and slow until it came to a complete stop/stall. The EPB indicator was displayed on the dash. I tried several courses of action to resolve the issue including putting the car in park, attempting to disengage the EPB as well turning the vehicle off and on again. This issue presents itself with no prior warning. Fortunately, I was not highway driving during any of the mishaps. I was able to coast to the side of the road or to a parking lot safely. This issue presents itself a dangerous issue that other Jeep Compass owners are also experiencing with seemingly no true resolve from the Jeep manufacturer.

Stopped at stoplight. Engine start/stop was selected on and stopped engine per usual. Released brake and engine didn’t restart leaving vehicle un-powered in traffic. Shifted to park. Let vehicle recycle on/off power a few times. Engine was able to be restarted several minutes later. This happened before ~1 year ago and dealer replaced aux battery and torque sensors but couldn’t replicate failure and never disclosed any actual fault found.

The screen that shows the radio, backup camera, car play etc is 2/3 blank. It has been going out for over a month but now is just out all together. I did grow up in the era where you didn't have backup cameras however the way these new cars are made and all the blind spots, it makes it more difficult to backup without the assistance of the rear view camera. I saw on the national news last week that Jeeps 2020 and newer were recalled but I believe the recall should also include 2019. When I googled it, you tube says the entire screen needs to be replaced which can cost at least $500.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that while idling at a red traffic light, the Auto START/STOP system engaged, causing the parking brake to erroneously engage. The contact released the brake pedal, and the vehicle failed to respond as needed. The contact restarted the vehicle for the vehicle to respond as needed. The Auto START/STOP warning light was illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The contact stated while at a green traffic light, the parking brake unexpectedly engaged, and the vehicle failed to move. The contact restarted the vehicle, depressed the brake pedal, and released the parking brake. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was approximately 80,000.

I was driving my 2019 Jeep Compass Trailhawk and had just started to accelerate when my car showed a warning light for "High Coolant Temp." The car subsequently lost all engine power and immediately initiated my parking brake. The car was stopped in the middle of the roadway, posing a serious danger risk to myself and other drivers. Had this occurred 30 more feet, I would've been in the middle of a railway crossing. After a few seconds, the temperature indicator returned to normal, though the car still had no power. I had to restart my car two times, then the issue was temporarily resolved and I was able to drive back to my house.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the message that the electric parking brake was engaged, and to depress the brake pedal and to push the Push to Start button was displayed. The vehicle then stalled. The contact stated that upon depressing the brake pedal and pushing the Push to Start button, the vehicle responded as needed. Additionally, the contact stated that the instrument panel lights, and the instrument cluster had become inoperable while driving. The contact stated that upon turning off and restarting the vehicle, the instrument panel lights, and the instrument cluster became operable. The contact stated that the failure had been recurring while driving. The vehicle was taken to the dealer, where the contact was informed that there was no failure was found. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 28,000.

Mileage: 28,000

I came to a stop for a red light at a hazardous intersection, and waited for the green arrow for my left turn. When the green arrow came I attempted to accelerate but the brakes locked and subsequently the vehicle began drifting into oncoming traffic. I lost power steering. I managed to stop it after getting out of the intersection by throwing the gear into park. The parking brake seemed to have been engaged by the stop/start system. Subsequent research on this issue revealed this is a recurring issue and especially with 2019 Compass, and people have experienced the stop start stalling their cars in highway traffic at speeds of 65 m.p.h. Obviously, this is a severe life threatening defect. Because this happened on a weekend, the mechanics have not yet evaluated the vehicle. Please have Jeep held accountable.

The UConnect screen that comes with the Jeep Compass purchased and many other Jeep models during this time period has an apparent systematic lifetime problem. The vehicle has less that 40K miles on it and the screen started to appear discolored with lines distorting the images a couple of months ago, and would get progressively worse as the car heated up. The screen has gotten progressively worse to the point where it now does not display anything after ~30 seconds of being in the car. We are bringing the vehicle to a Jeep dealer today, but from looking online this seems like a very prevalent issue with Jeep Compasses and Jeep models. Without the screen, several safety features and namely the requirement of a backup camera display are completely unavailable.

screen for climate control, radio, rearview Camara doesn't work

The vehicle will randomly show a coolant warning temperature light, then suddenly the engine will turn of. The car must be completely turned off to start it again. This happens when the car is not hot, there is plenty of coolant etc. When this happens the fobs also will not work. It has happened 4 times the last two weeks. My safety was put at risk because I was in the middle of driving when my car died in the middle of the road. Yes the vehicle was inspected and the batteries were replaced. The issue was not reproduced when it was in the shop.

The vehicle intermittently has issues starting .. if the automatic start/Stop isn’t disengaged you get stuck at stop signs/ stop lights . I have repaired everything I can think of when it comes to this issue . I turned to the internet for more ideas/ootions … turns out there is sooooooo many more jeeps especially the compass that have the same issue … how can this not have a recall … my kid who is only 16 and just got his license almost got rear ended at an intersection because the car shut off and wouldn’t start … he had to wait over 10 minutes before it started again so he could move the car .. it has been to the garage many times and not one can pin point what the issue is .. I just get told it’s a jeep thing ! I’m afraid to shut my car off when I stop at the store or bank … if I know I’m going to be somewhere for a while I have to ask for a ride because I don’t know if my car will start … i have to try to start my car way before I need to , to give it time to “Reset” then it will start …

Car continuously shows multiple codes (10+)then won’t shift to neutral or drive and car won’t even turn off. Has happened multiple times with no resolution various codes (dynamic tourque steering, service hill holder , service 4WD, service transmission, anti lock brake system fail, fuel service cut off, U1110, speed control fail, and multiple others

In February I took my car for an oil change. I went out of town and when I returned my car would not start. I replaced my key fob battery and I charged the battery because a jump did not work. Once battery was charged we were able to get my car to turn on. I took the car for battery testing at auto zone and nothing came back. I took the car to the dealership (Jeep Dealer) they said both batteries were original and needed to be replaced. I paid for both to be replaced. A few days later I was driving m, came to a stop light and when the light turned green I went to press the gas the car dashboard glitched and turned completely off I was in the middle of the road. I started the car back up and called the dealer immediately and took it in for service. The dealer said it was a reset that needed to be done and computer update. A few days later my car did the same thing only this time it gave a few messages on the dashboard and I was able to turn it back on. The deal ship kept my car for a couple more days. The did more updates and returned the car. I had no issues for a few weeks with turning off however when I turn the car on it would glitch as if it did not want to start. Also, the start/stop feature stopped working completely. One morning I started my car on my way to take my child to daycare the car glitched again but turned on I drove maybe 500ft and I got a message on the dashboard “stop safely vehicle will turn off soon” I pulled over and turned the car off and back on the message was gone. A month later I got the same message but I kept driving and nothing happened. A week later I drove to drop off my child, the car was off completely and moments later when I returned the car would not start the radio dashboard lights all turned on and I could hear the car trying to start but it did not. AAA came to assist jumping my vehicle and I was able to drive the car to the same dealership. They kept the car for a week and found nothing.

It is not allowing me to check everything but the bottom line is this. It is highly inappropriate to know that there were three recalls on this vehicle it says 2 were completed there were investigations done and I do not have the ability to view them as a consumer especially whrn I was trying to buy it and now when I am trying to find out if it is related to a problem I am having. I need the full detailed list. I have asked the dealership and not received the documentation, please provide them. Thank you.

High Coolant temperature notice code is thrown causing to lose all power to engine even though the vehicle is not overheating. I am put at risk because while traveling my jeep loses all power and someone could run into the back of my vehicle when traveling down the road.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while driving approximately 20-30 MPH, the vehicle went into anti-theft mode and stalled in the middle of the road. The ABS warning light and other unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact was unable to pull to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to a parking lot. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer, where the failure could not be duplicated, and the contact was informed that the battery was low. The contact stated that the failure recurred while driving 65-75 MPH. The vehicle was towed to a second dealer, Preston Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM of Wilmington (3807 Kirkwood Hwy, Wilmington, DE 19808), where both batteries were replaced, and the electrical system was reprogrammed. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred 12 days later. The contact was able to restart the vehicle after 10-15 minutes, and the contact drove to the residence. The vehicle was taken to a third dealer, Ourisman Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Baltimore (124 North Point Blvd, Baltimore, MD 21224), where it was diagnosed and determined that the alternator needed to be replaced. The vehicle was being repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and informed the contact that they could not assist due to the mileage on the vehicle. The failure mileage was 127,000.

Mileage: 127,000

A few minutes into the drive, the “Coolant Temperature Too High” warning appeared on the dashboard screen and the temperature gauge shot all the up and then immediately all the way down before correcting itself. This occurred while accelerating after a turn.

The gear selection lights near the gear shift go on and off for no apparent reason. I can not see which gear I am in at night. I am afraid that this is indicative of a more serious electrical problem. I am still under warranty because I purchased Added Care Plus from directly from Jeep that covers me through the end of December 2024. I took the vehicle to Jeep Dealer CH Urness Motors in The Dalles, Oregon. The owner and service manager told me that my car "Is not broken enough" for them to repair. The owner, Tim Urness, stated that they only repair items with warning lights and that they do not honor the Added Care Plus warranties sold by Jeep dealers unless they've sold it. Additionally, my auto stop start battery is malfunctioning, and the engine is making a strange noise. Stellans Jeep Cares is not responding to my calls concerning the warranty or getting the car towed to a different dealer for service. I live in a rural area, so I will need to travel 200 miles round trip to have my car serviced and I have been advised that I will need to make the trip at least twice to have the car first diagnosed, then serviced. I know that NHTSA does not normally handle these sorts of problems, but it is a safety issue, also I would like direction on where to report the dealership and Stellantis for not making necessary safety repairs covered under warranty. I had a previous issue with the same car's seatbelt webbing and had to fight to get the repair made. Thank you

Temperature gauge spiked momentarily, the car lost power for 2 to 3 seconds, then restarted by itself. This occurred while driving at approx 10 mph. This is a very dangerous situation. I have read online that others have had similar issues, and that dealers cannot resolve it.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, the vehicle independently turned off while the vehicle was idling. The contact shifted the gear shifter into park and then restarted the vehicle. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The failure mileage was unknown.

Screen went out but it works I am just unable to use the screen features and had to replace my start/stop battery in less than a year

Since I’ve had my car both batteries continue to fail (I’ve had them both replaced multiple times now). Also my display screen glitched for quite some time and now does not work at all, causing me to be unable to use my back up camera as well as my radio.

Complete vehicle shut down while driving. You can be driving and it shuts off on its own which is so dangerous almost caused A severe accident. Took to dealer prior nothing is wrong with any parts on my vehicle this is some malfunctioning with the design. I have a 2019 jeep compass Trailhawk. This is the 6th time doing this to me. After a few days it restarts with no issues.

My vehicle randomly stopped on the freeway one morning. I had no warning signs or lights on at the moment. This has occurred for the second time in the past few months. I took it to the dealership, and they acted strange as if they did not want to be held responsible for diagnosing the vehicle. I took it to another mechanic, and he stated that the car has a major electrical issue. This is something extremely dangerous, not only to myself but to other drivers around me.

First my screen started glitching then went black, then about a week later car kept saying start/stop unavailable, then car decided it didn't want to start (not even after being jumped) I haven't had my vehicle not even 3 years yet and I'm still making payments on it.. but why all of a sudden is ir not starting? All I hear is a click when I try to start it.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that the check engine warning light was illuminated and there was a thumping sound coming from the front-end of the vehicle. The vehicle was taken to the dealer who replaced the auxiliary battery which reset the check engine warning light. The thumping noise coming from the front-end of the vehicle persisted. The vehicle was taken to another dealer who determined that the rack-n-pinon failed and needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 63,000.

UNKNOWN Was driving while decelerating when engine stuttered and emergency brake light came on. The car then stalled and would not restart until 3rd try. This is the second time this incident has happened.

Multiple incidents over the last 5-7 weeks up to and including today 11/05/2023. When walking out and starting my Compass the engine/vehicle initially would not start. When initially pressing the start button all the dashboard lights, gauges and annunciators would illuminate but I would receive a “coolant temperature too hot” message on the dashboard and the car ultimately would not turnover and start but rather just shut down completely. Upon waiting a couple seconds I tried to start it again and this time it would start up just fine all normal without any messages on the dashboard. In other occurrences I’d receive multiple dashboard messages which included the ESS system but after turning off and trying to start again my Compass would not and I’d have to jumpstart the battery In order to successfully start the vehicle. From what I have researched and read on myjeepforums and Reddit it seems that many Compass owners going back to 2019/2020 are currently having or have gone through this same problem ultimately spending thousands upon thousands of dollars on part replacements and dealership visits only to be told that they cannot find the problem or know what may be causing the problem even though they are well aware of these issues. Some complaints have stated that this issue has happened while driving on major expressways or busy roads at random causing them to just come to a complete stop in the middle of traffic on expressways or during turns! I am taking my Compass to the dealership tomorrow morning 11/06/2023 at 7am to make them known of these issues I am having but I’m not holding out any hope. Jeep has not issued any recalls since this problem was brought to late in 2020. I do not feel safe driving this vehicle any longer and I will not spend thousands of dollars on random part replacements when dealerships or outright telling other compass owners that they can’t locate or college the problem. My next step after tomorrow may be to consult a lawyer.

It keeps giving me messages like high coolant temperature or stop safely vehicle will shut down soon. I read that this had happened to many jeeps, and the dealership couldn’t find the issue

Car was at the gas pump. Filling up gas, then start the car. When car get started the engine suddenly turn off with the coolant temperature too high alert. The temperature on the dashboard is normal (middle). Engine wouldn't turn on after and the alert keeps popping up. Had to tow to the nearest jeep service

Randomly “High Coolant Temp” or “Coolant Temp too high” appears after not driving car for 12+ hours and car won’t start. Check engine light flashes. The Low power light comes on also. Sometimes I can turn ignition button off and right back on and it’ll start with no issues, sometimes I have to hook jumper cables or a jump box to the car to get it to start after the messages appears. Sometimes when it starts after turning off and back on because of the message, idle surges bad and throttle pedal is not responsive. Radio screen becomes unresponsive.

I purchased my Jeep in January of 2022. It has been running fine except for the past few months. Within the past month my Jeep starting flashing a High Coolant Warning which has been followed by the car shutting off while I am driving. This has happened to me on on ramps to highways and when driving 70 on the highway. The car has immediately turned itself back on when this happens. I brought my Jeep to Allen Mello Jeep in Nashua NH. At first they couldn’t find anything wrong but then they thought it was the water pump and Temperature Gauge. After spending $1300 with them it didn’t fix the issue and my car shut off two days ago on 8/15 while I wasn’t even driving for 10 minutes. Jeep doesn’t seem to know what is going on and they can’t seem to reproduce it. They are just guessing at a serious safety concern. This has also happened to me on the following dates 7/14/23, 7/20/23, 8/8/23

The Jeep has been in the service department since March 2023. The vehicles system malfunctions while driving and shuts down. The ability to drive to safety is not available. This has happened to me twice while driving on the hwy with my SPECIAL NEEDS daughter in the car.

I had just got back from a trip where my Jeep Compass ran perfectly fine. I had to go to work the next morning and my Jeep would not start. A warning came on that said "coolant temperature to high" and would not let me start my car. Keep in mind that the car had not even been running to have a high temperature. The engine would not turn over and the power steering locked up. This came without warning and I had no signs that something was about to happen. I have read that this has been occurring since 2021 and I wanted to add to the complaints of how dangerous this could be if my engine would have locked up and shutdown while driving on the highway like others have reported. The battery and auxiliary battery are not even two years old. This issue seems like it needs to be investigated more even though a investigation was opened up in 2022 and it is now 2023 and I have note seen anything from it.

The contact called on behalf of the owner of a 2019 Jeep Compass. The owner was unable to start the vehicle. The contact stated no warning light was illuminated.

Auto stop feature will not consistently work. My daughter has been in an intersection on several occasions when the vehicle would not re start. This happened in October of 2022 and a battery and a battery and sensor were replaced. This is now happening again putting her in danger in the middle of roadways.

The uconnect touch screen is ghost touching and glitching out causing it to mess with my cars functions and distracting me while driving.

My emergency brake engages while my vehicle is in drive during auto assist feature is on. My vehicle stalls. I have to put my vehicle in park, then shut my car off and restart it while in traffic. I have been in several near collisions. I have been a victim of road rage. My 2019 Compass has been experiencing this issue since July 2020. After 11 service visits, my vehicle is still not fixed and the dealership is no longer willing to help. They say there is nothing that can be done. I have copies of all service repair orders from 2020-June 2023

Multiple times while driving, the vehicle's high coolant temperature will instantaneously spike and shut the car down while driving. The problem so far has resolved itself within a couple seconds every time but we fear what will happen when this happens on the highway. The engine temperature is never close to too hot so I believe this to be an electrical issue.

Occasionally the knob that dims the dash and infotainment screen does not work. The lights stay at full illumination. This creates a blindingly bright situation in the dark of night.

The Auxiliary battery has died 3 times in 4 years. The dealership each time has replaced it and has stated it is unknown why the battery keeps dying. I have brought to 2 different Jeep dealerships.

Fuel saving start/stop feature induced function. Oct 2022-- Vehicle stopped on slightly upward slope. Engine turned off automatically (start/stop). Driver removed foot from brake and placed on accelerator. Accelerator push resulted in engine stall out. Car had to be cycled through multiple shut downs and gear shifts before being able to move. This was in a neighborhood fortunately. Vehicle submitted for repair where no fault reported but a sensor was replaced. May 2023-- Same incident but in traffic. Very dangerous. Waiting to submit vehicle for repair. No confidence.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving approximately 75 MPH, the vehicle inadvertently decelerated to approximately 45 MPH for approximately 3 seconds, hesitated, and then stalled. The contact stated that before the vehicle stalled, the coolant temperature warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the oil, START/STOP, and battery needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to another dealer however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was provided a case number; however, the case was closed. The contact was offered a reimbursement but declined. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

Mileage: 60,000

On 05/04/2023 the outside temperature was 58 degrees. The vehicle in question had been sitting for approximately 5 days without being operated. When I depressed the ignition button, the vehicle shuttered slightly and started. Immediately a high coolant temperature alarm was displayed on the dashboard. When I placed the vehicle in reverse it slowly moved backwards. When I placed the vehicle in drive, it was slow to respond then suddenly lunged forward at a high rate of speed with little to no pressure on the accelerator. The vehicle shut down and required a restart. Through research, I discovered this is apparently a common complaint with this make, model, and year vehicle and that it needs to be reported. Fortunately I was not at speed or traveling, if I had of been, there would have been a high risk of a traffic accident. This vehicle only has about 25,500 miles on it.

My 2019 Jeep Compass started shutting off during driving. The car would shut off at stop lights or stop signs when the AC was turned to the maximum level. You have to put the car in park and restart the car. There would be no indication and it would only do this when the auto stop/start was on. The stop/start symbol is a green A. When it is malfunctioning the symbol turns orange and only goes off if you restart the car. I took my Compass to the local dealer several times to fix the issue. They have never heard of this happening and when they attempted to fix the issue the same thing happens again. My safety was/is at risk when the Compass can shut off during traffic at any moment leading to traffic accidents with my family in the car. I took the Compass to get this issue fixed several times in 2020, 2021 and recently in 2022 due to the fact that I was pregnant and was concerned for the safety of my baby and myself.

The vehicle flashes that it is overheating and then shuts off, no matter what speed the vehicle is at. You then have to pull over and restart the vehicle. It is a very dangerous situation and I’ve seen hundreds, if not thousands, of similar stories online with the 2018-2022 jeep compasses. This issue needs to be resolved and Jeep needs to recall these vehicles before someone is seriously hurt.

The vehicle just shuts off while driving. Typically occurs while approaching a stop or slowing in speed. This puts our safety at risk at it typically happens at an intersection where other cars are crossing or waiting to cross. This vehicle is available for inspection upon request and has not been looked at by a dealer. The auto start stop function warning light has been coming on when this happens.

On my way to work my 2019 Jeep compass all of a sudden started flashing all these error messages while I was driving (check shifter, service transmission, service ESC, AWD warnings, check coolant, car shutting down) my car seemed to be stuck in 1st gear, and my parking brake came on. While panicking trying to get off the road, I turn left but my car is going so slow a truck comes over the hill and slams into my passenger side. I've had my car less than 2 years and it did this exact same thing a few days after I bought it , I took it back to the dealership I bought it from, but they couldn't replicate the issue, the car corrected itself and was fine until April 6 when it started again while I was driving and caused me to be in an accident. This has been very traumatic, I've never been in a automobile accident, and I feel like it's all because of my car wouldn't accelerate so I could get off the road safely

Coolant overheating error message then Jeep stalls/shuts off while driving. Has happened multiple times. First time at a stoplight. Another incident occurred backing out of a driveway. A third time happened while driving on the highway going 75mph was able to power through and not shut off by pressing the accelerator. Another time happened while turning off the exit ramp from highway, again was able to push through the system by pressing the accelerator. Note-the coolant temperature is not actually overheating. If the Jeep turns off the coolant temperature goes back to normal, this is also the case if it stalls but doesn’t shut off. No mechanic has been able to diagnose why this is happening.

Engine shut down in an intersection due to “high coolant temperature” This was a false error and almost caused me to get into an accident. Once I could get power back, I moved over the the side of the road and inspected my coolant further. There were no leaks and reservoir had adequate pressure and fluid. Coolant temps read regular. I continued to drive to work while monitoring the digital coolant temps. The temperature fluctuated between 192 and 198. I reached my destination safely, but following this event, I do not feel this vehicle is safe to drive. Vehicle is up to date on maintenance and has 34k on the odometer

We were stopped at a traffic light, began to move when the driver instrument display went red, said coolant was high, the car stalled, and we were hit from behind by another SUV. After we were able to restart it, the display returned to normal. We waited for the police to arrive, got an accident report and now the car is at the dealer. Also, before that the radio display was acting up with lines in i like a bad television then it would shut off. The dealer says it needs a new radio (on a 4-year-old Jeep), and they want to apply updates that SHOULD fix the issue.

dashboard message stating “High Coolant Temperature” while driving on highway. I had to stop on the shoulder of the highway after seeing a warning that the vehicle would soon shut off. I was driving the car with my child and the situation was very tense. I had to park the car on the shoulder of highway and wait for it to settle down. This actually threatened the lives of me and my child.

Multiple instances of power loss in the vehicle with the warning stating that coolant temperature is too high. Car doesn't power more than 20mph in such instances and needs to be parked on the side for a restart.

THIS IS THE SECOND TIME THAT I AM WRITING THIS LETTER ON THIS 2019 JEEP COMPASS WHEN DRIVING THE LIGHTS START GOING CRAZY CHECK ENGINE,SERVICE TRANSMISSION,POWER STEERING NEEDS SERVICED, SMELL OF GAS AND ANTIFREEZE AND PARKING BRAKE COMES ON AND MUCH MORE. I HAVE HAD THIS JEEP IN THE SHOP 5 TIMES WITH NO HELP I NEED HELP AS SOON AS POSSIBLE ON THIS JEEP IT IS A SAFETY HAZARD AND I AM AFRAID TO DRIVE IT AT ALL I AM DISABLED AND ON A LIMITED INCOME NEED HELP PLEASE.

While driving in 33 degree weather my Jeep Compass randomly shuts off flashing a high coolant temp on the dash. This has happened twice while operating on the roadway, one of which was in the middle of navigating a 4 way traffic light. My significant other is a licensed mechanic therefore all maintenance is always up to date. This vehicle isn’t low on antifreeze and is a significant safety threat to myself and my two children 3 and under.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the vehicle stalled. There was no warning light illuminated. The contact stated that she was unable turn off or restart the vehicle. The vehicle was towed to the dealer, where the TCM and BCM were replaced; however, the failure reoccurred 6 hours later. The vehicle was towed to the dealer who informed the contact that 69 diagnostic trouble codes were retrieved; however, the dealer informed the contact they could not repair the vehicle unless the failure occurred while test driving the vehicle. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 63,800.

Mileage: 63,800

What component or system failed or malfunctioned, and is it available for inspection upon request? Yes there is. I was driving on January 30th Monday and the car turned off a car almost hit me in the middle of the road. The car has been parked ever since that incident. My life is in danger. I do not feel safe and nobody seems to care. Yes the dealer I went to was Jeep Chrysler dodge in homestead and they did not care.

Vehicle stalled out and locked up after stopping and attempting to accelerate. The vehicles emergency brakes locked on, the vehicle could not turn off with the ignition button, and when looking under the hood the electrical components had a low buzz to it. Vehicle could not turn off emergency break, accelerate, and engine turned off...

My car kept giving me messages transmission, check engine, your car will shut down. All messages then came across the dash and it stopped running. I took it to keep dealer they put it on the diagnostic machine. Replaced my 12v start stop battery and said it’s all good to go. Drove about 25 miles and another message came on drive around in a circle and recalibrate. Drove another mile and a message said engine will shut down and it did. Tried to start it it wouldn’t start but my brake lights and my flood light remained on and I couldn’t lock my vehicle. Checked it 8 hours later car was completely dead. Pretty sure the battery was drained It was Christmas Eve will wait until Monday to have it towed for the second time. .

The car has gone completely dead on at least 5 separate occasions since I got it about a year ago. There could be a plethora of reasons why but the dealer never seems to have an answer. The car can shut off for up to 5 minutes in my case and I’m usually stuck in traffic. It is dangerous and produces severe anxiety. When the car stops like that the e brake comes on and sometimes all I can do is manually unlock the door to get out can’t even move the shifter. I have had numerous issues with the car feels unsafe until they fix the root of the problem

I was driving down the road going about 40mph, it lost power, I coated into a nearby parking lot because there was no acceleration Pulled off the road, shut it off and it did restart The next morning it was dead It tried to turn over, then it did jump I went ahead and got a new battery and it has been starting

Auto stop star keeps on acting up I just purchased the car I had it stall on me change one battery stalled on my agin change the other battery now I have to take it to the shop again for same issue got the car March,5,2022 1st problem July,5,2022 2nd problem November,21,2022 3rd problem December,3,2022

About a month ago my car showed a warning that essentially said "Find a safe place to stop your car will stop soon". I had to get a jump start but I did make it to the dealership to get the batteries changed. A week or so after the return of car my check engine light came on again. It went off 2 days later but the car stalled as I was driving it shortly after. I was at a stop light and it just shut down. I had to put the car in park. Turn it off and restart it. Saturday I was on my way to work and the coolant temp went full red, then no notches and the car stopped while I was driving. I had added coolant the day before because it wouldn't blow heat only cool air. Nonetheless it is currently in the shop. I had to get it towed as it started smoking. The biggest problem is that this time it did not advise that it would stop. It just stopped at 6:30 am in the dark on a 4 lane road.

While driving with the automatic start / stop on, the engine shuts down and dashboard light issues a coolant warning light. After a few seconds the engine goes back on. This happens periodically and is not a safe situation.

While traveling down the roadway, a message will pop up on the middle information area that reads, “Stop Safely Vehicle Will Shut Off Soon.” Both the main battery, auxiliary battery checked and both tested good. (Replaced both less than 2 months ago) No check engine light. No battery light. No change in voltage. No change in any temperatures. The vehicle did shut off. But after shutting off for about 10 minutes, started back up with no problems. However after driving in secondary road for about 15 minutes, the same message popped up on the display.

While sitting at a stop light, the engine stalled and would not restart. The brake pedal had no freeplay and was more difficult than normal to press. After about 30 minutes the vehicle restarted normally but required a lot of pressure on the brake pedal. No check engine or other warning messages appeared on the dash.

Numerous times while driving at a low speed the EMERGENCY Brake suddenly came on for no reason. Car lost all ability to accelerate or brake at all. Had to be shut down multiple times to clear system to function again. Extremely dangerous in traffic for this to happen. Car has only 10000 miles and is maintained in every aspect.

Auto start stop system error. Also initiated a check engine light, right turn signal not working, brake lights stopped working, and parking light stopped working. Safety issue because inoperation of lights poses issue with other drivers. Vehicle has 17,500 miles.

The on off start failed to operate. It didn't start two mornings and I had to have it jump started. It failed to start while parking. The sheck auto start light finally came on. I called the jeep dealer and I can't get an appointment until October and i am afraid to drive the car like this. In 2020 it malfunctioned while I was driving over Red Mountain pass on a cliff edge and luckily wasn't killed. They repaired it. but now it is n ot working again.

The Compass randomly stalls when the auto stop start is engaged and the car is stopped. It stalls when we press the gas and the emergency brake automatically engages. The car has to be put in park, emergency brake turned off and then restart the car. It has happened at stop signs, lights, traffic and intersections. It does not happen when we press the stop start button so it does not go on. Brought to the dealer and they could not recreate and never heard of problem. They had it for 10 days.

My 2019 Jeep Compass Trail Hawk shuts down either while driving or stopped. The message that appears is "Coolant Temperature Too High" . It is a sever safety issue as it happens while idling at traffic lights. As soon as I let off the brake it stalls and displays that message. I have to put the Jeep in park, restart the engine. This also happens while driving. Sometimes I can power through. Once it happened and another error message came up and said "Throttle Engine Service Disabled". I have had the Jeep to an authorized Jeep service station (Kelly Jeep) many time without resolution. We are concerned about operating the vehicle.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while the vehicle was on auto start and driving 65 MPH, the vehicle started jerking and stalled without warning. The contact stated that several unknown warning lights illuminated after the vehicle stopped. The vehicle was towed to the residence. The vehicle was taken to an independent mechanic however, no failure was determined. The contact scheduled an appointment with the dealer for the vehicle to be diagnosed. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not contacted. The failure mileage was 30,000.

Mileage: 30,000

Since I purchased my Jeep Compass Trailhawk in February 2019, sporadically a message appears on the dashboard display about "High Coolant Temperature" and immediately sends the vehicle to shut down and after a couple of seconds the error disappears and the temperature returns to normal. I must clarify that at no time does the vehicle overheat. This error occurs at any time of the day, regardless of whether the vehicle is cold in the morning or after driving for several hours; sometimes it occurs several times a week and sometimes not at all for weeks; the vehicle may be stopped at a traffic light or in motion on the highway, a particular situation that worries me greatly, because when this happens, the vehicle locks up for an instant (approximately one second) in which the steering hardens and the vehicle tends to stop abruptly, and I fear that this may cause damage to my car or even worse cause an accident. This situation has been reported since the first time it happened (about 11 months ago) and I have had to go to the garage about 10-15 times. In each occasion the technical team has tried to solve the problem without success, they even replaced a control module, installed updates, ran the scanner, and made long driving tests trying to recreate the condition that causes the error without succeeding.

On 3 different incidents, my 2019 Jeep Compass Trailhawk has stalled when I was slowing to a stop or stopped but not in park. I have had difficulty restarting the Jeep (once at an intersection and the other at a car wash) and the power steering as well as the emergency brake were not working. Also, the jeep is making a "lift off" sound when the vehicle increases its RPM (usually around 35mph-45mph). My foot is usually on the brake and not in the parked gear and just stops running.

Will not start, it’s not the car battery or fob battery

2019 Jeep Compass Limited - around May 2021 brake light comes on stays on for awhile then turns off and on at random while driving and while stopped. Then the brake fluid low light comes on randomly while driving or stopped. Then has to go away since it’s where speedometer is then the brake light stays on. Then the auto start/stop light said unavailable. Then the 4 wheel drive unavailable light randomly pops up not as often as the brake lights which are daily actually like 15+ times a trip which also means it is dinging every time a light goes off. I have been to the dealer several times and nothing is ever fixed. This is a safety hazard I can not have my family in this Jeep if I have a faulty brake and electrical system !!! There are lots of issues posted online about this faulty electrical system. How can Jeep excpect me to drive around with possible faulty brakes?? seems a recall needs to happen as this is a safety hazard!!! I will not even be able to pass emissions and get it registered if I have error messages! Almost 10 months and still having this ONGOING daily error message issue and dealer is of NO help as well it is reported to Jeep customer care. Which they don’t care either. Seems everyone knows about this electrical issue and from what I read it just gets worse !! How can brakes and faulty electrical system not be a hazard??!! I do not feel safe and don’t even want this Jeep at all. Come on Jeep Do you want your children/spouses/parents driving such a death trap?

The vehicle will suddenly shut off while driving, randomly and without warning. Every dash light will illuminate, power steering goes out, the engine will shut off and will not start back up for 5 minutes or more. This has occurred while stopped at a stop light and while going 60mph in a tunnel. It is a hazard to the driver, passengers, and all surrounding drivers. The vehicle is still under factory warranty, the dealership is offering no assistance, jeep corporate is also unhelpful. The vehicle is UNSAFE.

I was driving and my car completely shut down for “high coolant temperature” and then just turned back on like nothing happened

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.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that the air conditioner was blowing out shiny white participles into the vehicle. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer and was diagnosed that the debris was from an outside source. The evaporator coil was cleaned however, the failure recurred. The manufacturer was notified of the failure however, no further assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 42,000.

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.

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.

ON MAY 1ST 2021 I WAS DRIVING MY CAR HOME WHICH I'VE ONLY HAD FOR ABOUT 7 MONTHS (UNDER 36K MILES) HOME AND MY WINDSHIELD WIPERS STARTED MOVING (EVEN THOUGH THEY WEREN'T ON) I TURN THE KNOB TO TURN THEM OFF AND I GET A MESSAGE THAT 'SERVICE SHIFTER'. I GO HOME AND PARK THE CAR. ABOUT A HOUR LATER I COME BACK OUT AND TRY THE CAR AGAIN AND SAME THING WINDSHIELD WIPERS MOVING WHILE OFF, TURN THE KNOB TO TURN THEM OFF AND 'SERVICE SHIFTER' MESSAGE POPS UP ALONG MESSAGES ABOUT MY LIGHTS BEING OUT, MY A/C QUIT WORKING AND MY BREAK LIGHT CAME ON! TO TOP IT OFF MY GEAR SHIFT WAS COMPLETELY BLACK AND YOU COULD NOT PUT IT INTO ANY GEAR. WOULD NOT MOVE. THOUGH IT WAS IN THE PARK POSITION THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN OFF BECAUSE IT WAS SAYING IT WASN'T IN PARK. IT WAS A COMPLETE NIGHTMARE. WHAT IF THIS WOULD'VE HAPPEN IN DRIVE OR REVERSE?! I GO ON A CAR GURUS FORUM AND THERE ARE HUNDREDS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE HAD THIS ISSUE. WHERE IS THE RECALL?!?! PEOPLE ARE GOING TO GET HURT BY THIS. SO I GUESS JEEP/CHRYSLER WOULD RATHER HAVE LAWSUITS THEN TO FIX THIS ONGOING PROBLEM. THE DEALER HAS HAD MY CAR FOR ALMOST A WEEK AND STILL NO UPDATE. THIS IS RIDICULOUS! JEEP DO BETTER!

MY 2019 JEEP COMPASS STARTED HAVING ISSUES IN SEPTEMBER 2020. IT SHUT OFF AT A RED LIGHT ON HIGHWAY 76 IN OCEANSIDE, CA WITH MY FAMILY IN THE CAR. SHORTLY AFTER, IT STARTED BECOMING SLUGGISH WHEN PULLING OUT OF THE DRIVEWAY AND BACKING INTO THE STREET. SHIFTING BETWEEN PARK AND DRIVE IT STALLS, THE LIGHTS ON THE GEAR SHIFT HAVE SINCE GONE OUT. I HAVE REFUSED TO DRIVE OR REGISTER MY VEHICLE SINCE OCT. 2020 BECAUSE I AM TERRIFIED TO DRIVE IT WITH MY CHILD IN THE CAR. I MAKE MY MONTHLY PAYMENTS ON TIME AND HAVE BEEN TOLD TO REPORT MY ISSUES HERE. MY 2019 JEEP COMPASS IS A PAPERWEIGHT AT THIS TIME.

I BOUGHT MY 2019 JEEP COMPASS LIMITED FROM A DEALERSHIP ON 11/18/2020. SINCE THAT DAY IT HAS BEEN IN THE SHOP 4 TIMES. THREE TIMES BECAUSE THE START /STOP KEPT COMING ON SAYING TO HAVE IT SERVICED AND BECAUSE IT STOPPED ON ME AT A STOP SIGN AND WOULD NOT GO, HAD TO TURN IT OFF AND IT CRAKED AGAIN TELLING ME START/STOP HAS MALFUNCTIONED! TODAY1/26/2021 ALL LIGHTS ON DASH CAME ON IT LOST POWER ON THE INTERSTATE AND TOLD ME TO STOP HAVE ENGINE SERVICED NOW. SHUT DOWN WOULD NOT CRANK HAD TO CALL A TOW TRUCK TO TAKE TO DELEARSHIP. FROM WHAT I HAVE READ THESE CARS ARE A PIECE OF CRAP AND JEEP NEEDS TO TAKE NOTICE!! JEEP SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED TO SALE A VEHICLE WITH SO MANY KNOWN PROBLEMS!! SO SORRY I LEFT HONDA FOR THIS!!!!!!!!

WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR IT WILL TURN OVER BUT NOT START. THE CAR TURNS ON AS IF IT WILL START BUT DOESN'T COMPLETELY CRANK. THIS IS NOT THE FIRST TIME SINCE I'VE HAD THIS CAR THAT IT HAS NOT CRANK. IT HAS ALSO TURNED OFF IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC ON A VERY BUSY HIGHWAY WHILE AT A RED LIGHT AND DID NOT TURN BACK ON. THIS IS A PROBLEM I SEE MANY PEOPLE ARE HAVING WITH THIS SIMILAR VEHICLE.

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.

I CAME TO A RED LIGHT; MY CAR CUT OFF LIKE NORMAL; WHEN I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BREAK IT WOULD NOT START BACK UP. I HAD TO CUT MY HAZARDS ON. I PUT MY VEHICLE IN PARK AND TRIED TO TURN MY VEHICLE ON. I TRIED 3 TIMES AND IT FINALLY STARTED. MY VEHICLE STARTED MAKING WEIRD NOISES; ON MY CONTROL PANEL IT SAID START/STOP NOT READY BATTERY PROTECTION MODE. I PARKED MY CAR AND LET IT COOL OF FOR 2 HOURS. I GOT IN MY VEHICLE, STARTED, LEFT MY HOUSE, WHEN I GOT TO THE STOP SIGN. IT DID THE SAME THING. IM HONESTLY SCARED TO DRIVE MY VEHICLE.

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.

I WAS AT A RED LIGHTING TURNING RIGHT AND WHEN I STARTED TO GO THE CAR STALLED AND WOULD NOT LET ME GO FORWARD. I TRIED TURNING THE CAR ON AND OFF AND IT MADE A NOISE LIKE THE CAR WAS TURNING ON BUT WOULD NOT LET ME MOVE FORWARD. I TRIED TURNING IT ON AND OFF A COUPLE TIMES THEN THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON. I POPPED THE HOOD AND THEN TRIED TURNING THE CAR ON AGAIN, THIS TIME IT DID TURN ON AND WAS LETTING ME MOVE FORWARD AND THEN IT STALLED AGAIN AND WOULD NOT LET ME GO FORWARD. MY HUSBAND HAD TO PUSH THE CAR AND JUMP START IT (ITS A MANUAL) WE DROVE STRAIGHT TO DODGE TO HAVE IT LOOKED AT. THEY WERE UNABLE TO DUPLICATE THE ISSUE AND RELEASED THE CAR BACK TO US.

LEASED THIS CAR BRAND NEW. AT 60 MILES ON ODOMETER, WENT TO START CAR, CAR TURNED STARTED BUT THEN STALLED/TURNED OFF INSTANTLY. HAD TO WAIT A FEW MINUTES TO START AGAIN. AT 250 MILES CAR CAME TO BRIEF STOP ON SLIGHT INCLINE WHILE WAITING FOR A PARKING GATE TO OPEN, PARKING GATE OPENED AND VEHICLE WAS STARTING TO ROLL WITH THE CAR OFF, I RELEASED MY FOOT FROM THE BRAKE BUT THE CAR WOULDN'T START IT STALLED. I PUSHED THE BRAKES BACK TO STOP MY CAR. CAR WAS STILL IN DRIVE, I TRIED TO RE-START MY CAR BY HITTING THE PUSH BUTTON , CAR WOULDN'T TURN OVER. EVENTUALLY WAS ABLE TO RESTART AFTER 60 MINUTES. THIS IS AN EXTREME SAFETY HAZARD, I AM LUCKY THIS DIDN'T HAPPEN AT A BUSY INTERSECTION.

Mileage: 250

THIS IS MY 5TH TIME REPORTING THIS ISSUE TO THE MANUFACTURER THEY HAVE ALSO HAD A FINAL REPAIR ATTEMPT AND DECLARED NO ISSUE EVEN THOUGH AS I WRITE THIS THE PROBLEM STILL EXISTS. I WAS PARKED FOR AN HOUR AT A STORE I COME OUT TURN ON THE VEHICLE PLACE THE CAR IN REVERSE CAR FREEZES UP WON'T MOVE FROM ON OR RUN AND CANNOT CHANGE TO DRIVE OR ANYTHING ELSE ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND REVERSE SYMBOL CONTINUES TO BLINK CAR HAD TO BE RESTARTED TWICE AFTER THIS TO GET IT TO DRIVE TO GO HOME.

WHEN I HAVE TO BRAKE AND COME TO A STOP THE CAR RUMBLES, THEN WHEN COMPLETLY STOPPED THE CAR SHUTS OFF, THEN WHEN I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE PEDDLE THE STARTER KICKS IN AND STARTS THE CAR IN GEAR WITH A RUMBLE AND THEN I CAN GO? IT DOES'NT MATTER IF ON THE HIGH WAY OR AT A STOP SIGN IT RUMBLES, SHUTS OFF AND RESTARTS IN GEAR. THE CAR IS (2) DAYS OLD WITH 35 MILES.

ON 2/28/19 I LEASED A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. I HAVE BEEN HAVING MINOR ISSUES WITH IT WHEN TRYING TO START THE CAR, SOMETIMES IT JUST DOESNT START. AS I WRITE THIS ON 9/3/19 I AM EXTREMELY CONCERNED ABOUT THE LEASE I HAVE AND THEREFORE WHY I AM DOCUMENTING MY EXPERIENCE. LAST WEEK, TUESDAY, 8/27/19 WHILE IN AN INTERSECTION, MY CAR COMPLETELY SHUT OFF. I REACHED OUT TO MIAMI LAKES AUTO MALL ON VARIOUS OCCASIONS, THIS WAS A TOTAL DISASTER, I KEPT BEING TRANSFERRED TO VOICEMAILS AND COULD NOT GET ANYONE ON THE PHONE WHILE IN THE MIDDLE OF THIS INTERSECTION. I CALLED CHRYSLER ROADSIDE (ANOTHER MESS) AND ENDED UP HAVING TO WAIT 4 HOURS UNTIL A TOW TRUCK COULD COME AND GET MY CAR, STILL IN THE MIDDLE OF AN INTERSECTION, HAD TO CALL 911 SO A POLICE CAR COULD PARK BEHIND ME AS OBVIOUSLY THIS WAS A SAFETY ISSUE. AFTER FINALLY GETTING THE CAR TOWED, POLICE, RAIN AND BEING STUCK IN AN INTERSECTION AND ALL, FINALLY MADE IT TO THE DEALERSHIP. CUSTOMER SERVICE WAS HORRIBLE EXCEPT FOR A SERVICE MANAGER CALLED JONATHAN, HE WAS THE ONLY PERSON THAT SPOKE WITH ME DURING THIS TIME, OF COURSE AFTER I ARRIVED TO THE DEALERSHIP, ENTERPRISE WAS CLOSED SO I HAD TO TAKE AN UBER HOME. I HAD TO LEAVE TO TAMPA FOR WORK SO I HAD TO GO GET A RENTAL AT NATIONAL THAT MORNING AND HEAD OUT, ON THURSDAY THE 29TH I SPOKE WITH JONATHAN AND HE TOLD ME THE ISSUES WITH THE VEHICLE WAS A SOFTWARE FAILURE AND THAT THE VEHICLE IS WORKING PROPERLY NOW. WITH HURRICANE DORIAN COMING AND IF I HAD TO EVACUATE, OF COURSE, I WAS NOT FEELING CONFIDENT THAT I WASN'T GOING TO GET STRANDED WITH MY FAMILY WITH A FAULTY VEHICLE SO I HAD TO KEEP THE RENTAL FOR A FEW MORE DAYS. I AM VERY NERVOUS OF TAKING THIS VEHICLE HOME AS NOW I DONT KNOW IF IT WILL LEAVE ME STALLED, I HAVE READ THIS IS AN ISSUE WITH THE COMPASS. I HAVE FILED A COMPLAINT WITH JEEP AS WELL.

I WILL BE DRIVING AND WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT OR STOP SIGN MY EMERGENCY BRAKE WILL COME ON WITHOUT ME REALIZING IT.THE CAR IS STILL RUNNING AT THIS TIME AND WHEN I STEP ON THE GAS THE CAR WILL JUST ROLL INTO THE MIDDLE OF THE INTERSECTION AND STOP. I HAVE TRIED JUST CLICKING IT OFF, BUT THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WILL NOT COME OFF UNTIL I TURN THE CAR OFF AND THEN BACK ON. THIS IS MY SECOND 2019 JEEP COMPASS. THE FIRST ONE I HAD ONLY 4 DAYS BECAUSE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE WAS COMING ON AT ALMOST EVERY STOP I MADE. THE 2019 JEEP COMPASS THAT I HAVE NOW HAS DONE IT A TOTAL OF 6 TIMES SINCE I HAVE HAD IT, AND I HAVE HAD IT FOR ABOUT 2 MONTHS. I HAVE TAKEN IT TO JEEP 3 TIMES, BUT THERE ARE NO CODES THAT POP UP AND OF COURSE THE PROBLEM DOESN'T OCCUR DURING THE SHORT TIME THAT THEY HAVE THE CAR. THIS PROBLEM OCCURS WHEN THE CAR IS AT A COMPLETE STOP WHETHER I AM STOPPING AT A STOP SIGN OR LIGHT.

THIS IS MY THIRD COMPLAINT ON THIS 2019 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE DRIVING THE VEHICLE STALLS AND THE EMERGENCY BRAKE AND OTHER LIGHTS COME ON. THE VEHICLE IS UNABLE TO BE RESTARTED AND HAS TO BE TOWED. THE DEALERSHIP HAS UPDATED SOFTWARE, AND NOW HAS SAID THAT THE CAR IS LOW ON OIL EVERY THREE WEEKS AND THAT'S WHY IT STALLS IN THE MIDDLE OF TRAFFIC EXTREMELY DANGEROUS AND I HAVE A BABY ON THE WAY!. THE OIL CHANGE INDICATOR DOESN'T EVER SHOW UP AND THE MANUFACTURER JUST GIVES THE RUN AROUND.

Mileage: 6,673

THIS IS MY THIRD TIME WITH AN ISSUE ON THIS VEHICLE STALLING. I WAS TURNING AT AN INTERSECTION AND THE CAR JUST STALLED LIGHTING UP EVERY NOTIFYING SIGNAL INCLUDING AN EMERGENCY BRAKE BEING LOCKED IN ALMOST CAUSING AN SERIOUS ACCIDENT.

Mileage: 6,673

VEHICLE HAS SHUT OFF TWICE WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING. FIRST INSTANCE OCCURRED ON A HIGHWAY AND THE SECOND AT AN INTERSECTION.

Mileage: 1,880

THIS CAR SHUT OFF A RED LIGHT AT BUSY INTERSECTION BECAUSE OF THE START/STOP TECHNOLOGY. WHEN THE LIGHT CHANGED AND I TOOK MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, THE CAR DID NOT RESTART. IT DID NOT RESTART WHEN I PRESSED THE GAS EITHER. I HAD TO PUT THE CAR IN PARK AND PRESS THE START BUTTON TWICE TO GET IT TO COME BACK ON. THIS VERY UNSAFE AND SHOULD NOT HAPPEN ON A CAR WITH LESS THAN 400 MILES TOTAL ON IT.

Mileage: 360

CAR WON'T GO AFTER STOPPING WHEN FOOT IS OFF BREAK

CAR LOSSES ALL ELECTRICAL, WONT START. NOT A BATTERY PROBLEM. HAS HAPPENED 4 TIMES SINCE I BOUGHT THE CAR 2 MONTHS AGO.

THE START/STOP SYSTEM FAILED AT A STOP SIGN AND MY CAR STALLED AND I COULDN'T GET THE CAR MOVING UNTIL I TURNED OFF THE AUTOMATIC STOP/START SYSTEM. THE START/STOP ICON APPEARED WITH AN EXCLAMATION POINT WITH THE WORDS "STOP/START SYSTEM FAILURE" ON THE DASH. MY CAR IS A MONTH OLD.

Mileage: 2,100

WE RECENTLY HAD 3 INSTANCES WHERE OUR BRAND NEW 2019 JEEP COMPASS FAILED TO START. THE CAR IS ONLY 4 WEEKS OLD AND HAS LESS THAN 500 MILES ON IT. WE TRIED SEVERAL TIMES, BUT THE CAR WOULD NOT TURN ON EVEN THOUGH THE DASHBOARD INDICATED THE ENGINE WAS RUNNING. WE SAW ONLINE THAT THIS HAS ALREADY BEEN REPORTED BY SEVERAL PEOPLE. TOOK THE CAR TO THE DEALER AND APPARENTLY THERE IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH "STARTER CONTROL". THEY APPLIED A PCM UPDATE UNDER ITEM TCB 18-035-19. I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY, IF THIS IS A KNOWN PROBLEM WITH A FIX, THE DEALERS AREN'T PROACTIVELY RECALLING THESE CARS. THE ELECTRONIC START IS THE ONLY WAY TO START THE VEHICLE (NO OVERRIDE) AND IT COULD CAUSE GRAVE PROBLEMS, DEPENDING ON THE SITUATION, IF THE VEHICLE WON'T START. HUGE SAFETY ISSUE!!!!!

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. ON SEVERAL OCCASIONS, WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT FAILED TO START. THE FAILURE LEFT THE CONTACT STRANDED ON THREE OCCASIONS. ADDITIONALLY, THE AIR BAG WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO KENDALL DODGE CHRYSLER JEEP RAM (LOCATED AT 13355 SW 137TH AVE, MIAMI, FL 33186, (786) 231-2120) TO BE DIAGNOSED, BUT THE DEALER WAS NOT ABLE TO DUPLICATE THE FAILURES. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER WAS NOT NOTIFIED OF THE FAILURES. THE APPROXIMATE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 2,216.

Mileage: 2,216

THE CAR RANDOMLY FAILS TO START WITH THE PUSH OF THE START BUTTON. IT SAYS TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE BUTTON TO START, HOWEVER IT WILL NOT WORK. NOTHING HAPPENS. EVENTUALLY IT WILL START, COULD BE 1 MINUTE, COULD BE 10 OR 15 MINUTES. SOMETHING IS OBVIOUSLY WRONG. SERVICE OF COURSE COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE, SO NOTHING WAS FIXED. IT HAS HAPPENED AROUND 5 TIMES IN THREE WEEKS. CAR IS BRAND NEW. I ASSUME THIS IS SOME ISSUE AFFECTING MORE THAN JUST MY VEHICLE. IF THE START BUTTON DOESN'T WORK, THERE IS NO OVER RIDING WAY TO START THE CAR.

Mileage: 500

VEHICLE WON'T START. IT'S THE THIRD TIME IN A WEEK. THE FIRST ONE TAKE 10 MINUTES TO START, THE SECOND TIME 15 TO 20 MINUTES AND THE THIRD TIME I CALL THE DEALER AND THEY SEND A TOW TRUCK(ALL TIMES THE VEHICLE WAS STATIONARY). THEY USE JUMPER CABLES. THEY SAID IN THAT MOMENT THAT BROBABLY IS THE BATTERY BUT THEY LEAVE UNTIL NEXT DAY. NEXT DAY CALL ME TO PICK MY COMPASS AND THEY SAID THAT IT'S NOT THE BATTERY THAT THE BATTERY IT'S OK AND THEY DON'T FIND NOTHING. I'M WORRIED BECAUSE I SEARCH ONLINE AND I'M NOT THE FIRST ONE WITH THE PROBLEM.

Mileage: 526
