Engine overheating, sliding turns, brakes make noise.

While driving months ago my car lost all control of throttle, all controls shut down, and I barely made it to the side of the road. Got the car checked, it appeared to be the throttle body sensor. Had the sensor completely replaced, it has been 4 months since replacement, and this morning while driving around a curve the car lost acceleration, all controls shut off, and my steering wheel locked up, causing me to be stuck in the middle of a sharp curve in the middle of the road. I turned the ignition to off and restarted the vehicle and it started up and drove fine. I also have had an issue when accelerating where it has a hard time changing gears, and it gives a slight jerking in the throttle where it won't change. This morning after my incident the car has started vibrating while in drive and idles at 1000 RPM. When I put the car in neutral the vibration stops, but immediately starts back once I remove it out of neutral.

The ABS brake lights came on as well as the skid warning light when I started the car. About 30 seconds later as I was driving straight at about 25 mph down the street, there was a loud clicking sound and the brakes locked up and the steering wheel locked up too. Or possibly could have been the transmission that locked up. I can't be sure. But it is safe to say the entire care locked up leaving me unable to steer or maneuver the car in any manner. I waited a few minutes and the lights went off and I was able to get the car back home. I waited a couple of hours and started the car again and the ABS and skid light came back on. The car is a 2014 Jeep Compass.

I've had to replace all 4 bearings, the 4 wheel drive went completely out during big snow in 2016, the rutter valve had gone bad(which costs over $400., having to replace alternator, and various other things... this Jeep had been nothing but a pain since I've had it and I bought it new. They are junk and the whole vehicle should be recalled.

While looking at vehicles on the dealer lot I noticed this vehicle had the power steering pressure hose in contact to the dash panel steel upper cross member. Since the pressure hose moves with the engine it can wear a hole in the hose and the vehicle will lose steering assist and spray fluid on the catalytic converter which was close by. This was an issue I discovered in August of 2014 while working at fca and I told the company this issue was a design safety violation of fca out standards. I was ignored. Some vehicles which had not been shipped yet were knowingly shipped with this unacceptable hose clearance condition.

I was driving on my way home from work. It was snowing ice. I have lived in Colorado my whole life and been driving in the snow since I was 16. My car was brand new when I had received it and there was no wear and tear on the car. It had taken me about twice as long to drive home because I had been driving so slow. Once I had entered my neighborhood, I took a turn, then another immediate turn going about 3 miles per hour due to road conditions. My turn was slow and wide and I hit a patch of black ice and began to glide to the opposite side of the road, about 15 feet bumping into the curb. My entire front driver-side axel had completely snapped and my rear axel had bent. Both tires were completely intact and the wheels were not effected as well. The front driver side had basically been complete snapped and torn out of the socket. It is unacceptable for this equipment to collapse and fail at such a low speed impact. I had also been denied and inspection from the service manager at the dealership that I had bought it from and had it towed to. They had also neglected to report it to the manufacturer upon our request, leaving me to report it for them. The dealership then threatened to move the car after the Jeep corporation ordered them not to. The Jeep corporation had also stated that they would inspect the vehicle as soon as they could, possible this week of 01/12/2015. I am requesting notification immediately.
