Vehicle will without warning stall in the middle of driving, in city traffic, on country roads, starting up a hill as well as driving on flat straight road. I've been driving 55mph, 45 mph 25 mph and it will stall, the traction control light will come on. Sometimes the car will not restart for 10+ minutes after stalling. Each time I was driving in traffic, and had children in the vehicle with people behind me. Engine just cuts all power, power steering is lost. Also have noticed a huge drop in fuel efficiency, used about 1/4 of a tank in 30 miles, acceleration and vehicle not shifting normally. This is the 6th time in two weeks it has stalled, and 2nd time to take it into the dealership with this issue. I've only had about 6 months, it was cpo and have driven it about 10,000 miles

As I am driving the car stalls. This happens a lot when I slow down then press the gas again, also when I turn. This happens everyday on the highway and side streets, this has lead to almost getting into multiple car accidents. Be advised you are only allowed to report one date of occurrence, this is a daily issue. There is a recall for the 2016 Compass that describes the issue my car is having to the T. it does not include my VIN number, but I think this should be re-evaluated as this is a very dangerous issue. Be advised the recall S89 states, 'the crankshaft or camshaft sensor may only work intermittently, causing the engine to stall.' Please see the attached for proof of recall details.

I have a 2016 Jeep Compass and it randomly just turns off while I am driving it. My car has 55,000 miles on it. When it first happened it had a code for a crank sensor and I was told it required an update. The update did not change a thing. My car was still turning off at random times. This last time it turned off at a red light and while in drive began to roll backwards down a hill into oncoming traffic. Once I stopped the car, put on my flashers, and had it in park my Jeep Compass would not start again. I then had to flag down a police officer to help with the traffic around me. My car eventually started and I drove it right to the Jeep dealer who told me there was no codes and nothing wrong with my car, which clearly there must be problem. I do not feel safe for myself or others while driving this car. Chrysler needs to fix this problem. There have been many people on this site complaining of the same exact problem. 2016 Jeep Compass had a recall for the crank sensor but my car did not fall under this recall but clearly it should have. This is my 3rd time at the Chrysler dealer who have been unable to recreate the problem I have been experiencing.

My car continually shut downs while driving! this is very unsafe and happens while I am driving on the pa turnpike cruise control set. No warning no sound, the car does not over heat. The car just shuts down. I immediately called my local Jeep dealer first time it happened, at approx 3:15 am in the morning and left a message. I dropped my vehicle off 2 days later (I believe) and by that time it was jumping as well when increasing speed or coming around corners. They stated they could not replicate the issue. I went to the dealership and went out with the service mgr and replicated the issue. Car did not stall at that time and I was told with no codes, or not being able to replicate the issue they cannot determine the cause. Spark plugs replaced $300 later no jumping but car is still stalling!!!!!!! this is a very unsafe situation. My car is continuing to stall while driving to work in the early am 3am on the pa turnpike. I could be killed by tractor trailer. Again this am, I had cruise control set at 65 mph - car stalled no warning!. thankfully I was in the right lane and coasted to the shoulder. Put my car in park, turn the key to off and attempted to restart my car - nothing!! would turn but not start, waited approx 1 minute and tried again, same thing would not start. Waited another minute, tried again and the car started and now the service engine light is on. I drove to work at 55 mph with flashers on - totally unsafe on the pa turnpike. I called my dealer immediately and left another message for the service mgr around 3am that this happened again. He advised take to an auto zone to have the code checked since they do for free. I have no confidence in this car-I drive almost 2 hrs to go to work I am so scared of this car and afraid I am going to get killed on the turnpike because of this. Will go to autozone call joe, and attempt to get home to dealer
