My vehicle sounds like it's down shifting when driving between 40 & 50 miles and it has cut off on me several times when tuning the corners and something always sounds like it's rattling. I've taken it several times to the dealership and because no codes pop up they want to charge me to inspect it. I've complained about these issues since I've purchased it. There have been times when all of my functions light up or it tells me my key is not in the vehicle when it's in plain site. This happens when I'm driving on the street or freeway.

Vehicle has randomly shuts down while driving street or highway. Service transmission light comes on while driving and car decelerates which is extremely dangerous at highway speeds. Back up camera instrument panel intermittently does not work. I am sure there is more but at this time this is all I can think about as my daughter, son-in-law and grandbabies are stuck on the side of the road 250 miles from home. Most recent occurrence today with transmission light.

Initially service transmission message, appears on the car when it was turn without moving for more than 10 minutes, after that if there was an intention of changing the gear of the car (drive or reverse) the complete cars move like a mayor part was broken. After turning on the car and turning off the car 2 times the message disappear and the car can start moving freely. The car was taken to service and the dealer service explain that it was an incorrect plug. Weeks later the event was repeated but now running at a speed of 60 miles per hour. When the message appears while running the car instantly reduce the speed, which is very danger at this speed, and when pressing the accelerator the engine does not respond and can not exceed 30 miles per hour. This has happened multiples times, and it has been 'corrected' in different ways by the dealership, changing battery and correcting misplaced cables, now it happens every day. It is important to state that I was able of changing the car at the dealership but the same error happens on the new car.

I started the car and everything would turn on except the engine (vehicle stationary). Sometimes the back up camera is black and won't turn on when reversing (vehicle moving). The engine light randomly turns on when there's nothing wrong with the Jeep (programming/electrical issue"?") & a bunch of other lights, but then the next day it'll be gone; or it'll be gone after I turn the vehicle on & off multiple times (this happens when vehicle is moving on highway). All 3 of these incidents have happened several times & I feel very unsafe driving myself & my family in this vehicle, because of it.

My 2018 Jeep Compass started randomly overheating. We were stranded for over 5 hours in the middle of nowhere. I had the engine thermostat replaced, as the mechanic thought that was the problem. It seemed to work and we were in our way. About 2 miles from our destination it started overheating again. There was no steam, no excess sound from the engine, no nothing. I took the vehicle into another mechanic and had a full diagnostic ran, only to come back with nothing. We are currently driving through the desert with the heat on because anytime you turn on the ac the engine starts to overheat, and it is not even 80 outside. I looked it up in the seems to be a fairly common problem for the Jeep Compass. We have a long way to go on our trip still. This is extremely concerning considering the age and mileage of the vehicle.

I left my house and drove about a mile down the road. I stopped at a stop sign and as I went to proceed onto an extremely busy road my 2018 Jeep Compass completely shut down. It wouldn't move and told me to shift gears then press the brake and start button. Multiple attempts would not restart the car. Even though I put it into park, the D on the shifter was flashing and a message on the dashboard said that it had to be in park to start...even though it was in park. It took between 5-7 minutes to finally start running, but gave no indication of what the issue was, no warning lights or anything. I was able to drive a mile to my destination without any issue, but was momentarily in fear for my life as the engine shut down with no notice. Upon further investigation, I immediately made an appointment at the dealership to have it checked out.the man who helped we when I got there said he thought he knew what the issue was. He showed me that there was hardly any oil on the dipstick. I realize I was about 800 miles past the 5000 mile oil change, and they told me that Jeep said it was acceptable to burn a quart of oil every 2000 miles. This seems excessive to me and every mechanic that I've talked to. I have read that the engine was designed to shut off when oil is low and Chrysler confirmed that. How does this pass testing? there is no warning light at all and chances are that you will die or be seriously injured if your car just shuts off in traffic. I am genuinely concerned for my life and the lives and safety of others while having these faulty vehicles are on the road. There needs to be a recall asap and engines need to be replaced with ones that don't burn through fuel like this. Hundreds of people have reported the same issue online.

Purchased 2018 Jeep Compass trailhawk sport which now as approx. 28,000 miles. At approx. The one-year mark of ownership, the Jeep started experiencing significant issues with the auto start/stop feature and back-up camera. With regard to the first, the vehicle will be stopped at a stop sign, intersection, etc. And the engine will turn off (auto start/stop feature), however, the engine will not turn back on at times. This is an intermittent problem and unknown what it resolves to specifically. On occasion when this fault occurs, the vehicle will display the auto start/stop light on the dash with an exclamation point next to it. In the owner's manual it advises the vehicle should be taken to the dealership for diagnostics. Owner has taken the vehicle to the dealership on multiple occasions without any explanation or remedy. Dealerships have advised they are unable to determine the source of the problem and unable to replicate it. The back-up screen is also an intermittent issue. On occasion it will work whereas other times it will simply display a black/dark screen. The text "check all surroundings" still displays on the black screen. Most recently, however, owner observed the screen showing "camera system unavailable" with the black screen. Jeep's warranty provider/administrator has been extremely unresponsive in resolving the auto start/stop issue. In many cases, we aren't even receiving acknowledgement of the videos/pictures we are sending in to their email. As of late March, owner is receiving a new back-up camera after having just driven the Jeep to a dealer and requesting replacement. Owner is consistently being told to take the Jeep into a dealership, as the problem occurs, but dealerships cannot figure out the auto start/stop issue. Owner is becoming fearful in driving vehicle as it seems unreliable in operating properly.

I was driving vehicle going 30 mph at an intersection and the car died as I was turning. Lucky there was a little room where they were doing construction I was able to get out traffic. The parking brake engaged. I waited like two minutes and release the parking brake to restart the car. Car tried to turn over three times, and would not start. Waited 5 min and tried to restart car. Finally came back on. Drove it less than two miles down a city street and it did it again. The last time I was able to get it to restart, the transmission light remained on.
