Jeep Compass has just over 61,000 miles, when turning to go up my driveway the control arm fell to the ground. I had to purchase new vehicle as this was unsafe to drive. The service department at lia Jeep of northampton reported to me that I would keep continuing having other problems with underneath the car even if repaired as it was so bad. This is why I chose to get new vehicle. Metro Jeep of chicopee, MA took is as a trade and will be towed there today. 10/4/19 I was very thankful that this did not happen at high rate of speed or I may not be typing this right now.

Car randomly shuts off while in motion. Will restart after shut off. Has does this many times. This has been happening for quite some time. Looked it up and it's a common problem that needs to be addressed.

Filled my gas tank at the gas station before getting onto the highway. Car stalled and turned off merging onto the highway about a mile down the road. Lost control of breaks and steering. No warning lit up on dash. Googled and found out many others have this issue. This is dangerous and I was almost killed, something needs to be done.

I've owned a 2010 Jeep Compass for two years now. I use it as a work vehicle. Recently it started making a very rough sounding noise going down the road. It would be deep and disgruntled and then high pitched almost whistling. I took it to a mechanic and they said the front subframe is rusted so bad it's unsafe to drive. So I started looking into the issue online and there are dozens and dozens of other Jeep owners complaining about the same issue with their Jeep. And to make it all worse Jeep seems to want to do nothing about it. It's unsafe and it's going to get someone severely hurt or killed.

The car is making a sound so loud that to talk you have to talk very loud and the radio to hear have turn it up loud. We thought it was in the tire and we bought new tires and it is still making that sound. The car dealer could not find anything wrong. So I am asking you about this problem. It only happens when driving

When it rains and the vehicle is stationary there is no obvious sign of a leak however when driving after the rain a steady stream of water comes out of the map light. It flows on to the radio and heater controls. I am very good about keeping a paper towel handy to absorb as much as possible. Unfortunately I now have an extremely wet carpet that is molding. Jeep states that I should clean the drains for the sunroof, which I do quite often. They also state that the vehicle is not under warranty and they can not offer a fix with out charging me. I have had this vehicle for just over a year and I purchased it from a Jeep dealer.

The Jeep Compass 2010 powertrain control module (PCM) failed resulting in the Jeep to be inoperable. Because the Jeep was parked in a driveway no accident occurred. If this key module is prone to failure and the Jeep is on the road the driver would lose control of the vehicle.
