Computer message in the car information screen stated shifter service as I was turning on the car. Currently there hasn't been a recall on this item but according to the research there needs to be on set up. Everytime I attempt to accelerate there is a delay also upon braking just a tip jerks the whole vehicle.

The vehicle was in motion on highway 180. The vehicles service engine light, transmission light, electronic parking brake, and service hill holder turned on. I stopped the vehicle in the sholder. I checked the transmission and engine oil and both were good. I tried putting the vehicle on drive and the electronic parking light came on and stopped the vehicle from going on drive. The light stayed on for the electronic braking service. I was able to take it off the brake still with the service lights on. I was going to shift it into drive when it made a strong popping and screeching sound on the transmission when placed on reverse. I moved it to drive and it did the samething. I tried giving it gas and the D for drive would just blink and the vehicle would not move. I waited 30 minutes and tried moving it but nothing happened. I switched the gear from parking to drive hearing the popping sound as I shifted from the P R N D. I was able to drive it for 10-15 minutes and the transmission started heating up from 180F to 192F. While leaving the vehicle stopped for a while the transmission temp did cool off but I will have it serviced since I am still stopped at the highway with my family while writing this.

After starting car and driving for 2 minutes emergency break engages and car shuts off while in motion, upon turning off the car and restarting while turning right the low pressure sensor appears then disappears and service engine warning comes on car completely shuts off while in motion with no warning after the alarm disappears off dash. This occurred multiple times while driving in busy intersections. It also occurred when the car got towed back to dealership.

Upon first stop of day-only on first stop, the brakes stop vehicle extremely hard, if not wearing seat belt-you would impact windshield. After traveling for 10min brakes work correctly, this has been getting worse - vehicle is at dealer now and has been for two weeks-with no corrective action yet.

Second time this issue has been a problem. First time electrical issues prevented car from shifting out of gear and car will not shut off, I had to pull fuses to get car to shut down. Emergency parking brake would not even engage. So my daughter had to hold the brake because said auto was stuck in reverse for over one hour. This is a brand new car. It is my belief that this dealership was not truthful in disclosing the issues with this car. Web shows several instances of this happening, why has the nthtsa not recalled these vehicles with this same setup. I believe it's times that this car gets replaced by the manufacturer.

At about 25 mph the breaks didn't work when applied and caused an accident, some times the car speeds up even when gas pedal is not applied, sometimes when I shift to drive or reverse the D or R indicator flashing then I have to park and try again.

The car was in motion and in a middle of the street turn off, when the engine was checked it didn't have no engine oil on it. The car is brand new not even 5000 miles on it. Didn't show any warning before hand making it a safety issue for those like me traveling with children and the car stoping out of nowhere.

Several days ago while on the expressway, my Jeep Compass would not brake at all. We were forced to pull off on the median left side until it stopped.. two days ago, October 10th, when pulling into a parking lot, with brake depressed, the car lurched forward and hit a sign just missing a tree. The passenger front right side, door, back door, and rearview mirror were damaged. This was the second incident. Very scary and luckily no one was hurt.
