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 contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that while braking for a red traffic light, the parking brake activated independently. While attempting to accelerate from a stopped position, the brakes locked up and the vehicle would not move. The contact turned off and restarted the vehicle and the vehicle resumed normal operation. The contact called hertrich Dodge (1147 E pulaski hwy, elkton, md 21921, (443) 907-1500) and was informed that no actions could be taken unless the failure was present before a road test could be performed. The manufacturer had not been contacted. The vehicle was not repaired. The failure mileage was 12,000. The VIN was unavailable.
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 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.
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.
My car had stalling and shutting off problems while driving in three occasions, one day it happened 2 times, after a stop light, immediately after the vehicle restarted and then again after a stop sign, this time the check engine sign was on as a result. 3rd time it was when restarting after an intersection stop, when crossing after turning left, fortunately the car continued to the other end with the 1st acceleration impulse, and this time it turned on the emergency brake.
Brakes grab dangerously hard. And, transmission gets stuck in first gear, very dangerous when it occurs on a freeway or interstate highway. This is an avis rental car from the philadelphia airport. They rent very low standard cars for economy rentals.
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.
The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. While driving 45 mph, the vehicle began to hesitate. The contact had to depress the brake pedal to the floorboard to stop the vehicle. The contact stated that the emergency brake button failed to function. The contact stated that multiple unknown warning indicators were illuminated. The vehicle was taken to posner park Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram Fiat (located at 42650 us-27, davenport, fl 33837, (863) 438-3333) multiple times, but the failure could not be duplicated. The dealer replaced the emergency brake, but the failure continued. The manufacturer was not notified of the failure. The failure mileage was 431.
Leased a brand new car on 3/23/19. The same day the car made weird noises, informed dealership brought it back 2 days later and I was informed after not having the car for almost 3 weeks that the entire brake system ended up being replaced. Went on 5/6 to pick up car after it was repaired and broke down again, and car broke down in the parking lot of dealership. The car was in drive when emergency brake and engine failed on a Suburban side street. Full description is in document below
