Same issue 2X now and feel my life and others are jeopardized. While driving on a highway coming to a red light slowing down for the light to then turn green while pushing the gas the car stalled, shut down and emergency brake turned on, nothing would work. I could not disengage the emergency brake to even move the car off the lane of the highway and was nearly in a car accident. The first incident the vehicle was taken in for service and was told I needed an oil change. I said so while I'm driving, getting on a highway 1.5 minutes after leaving my home my car will just shut down" the answer was yes! unacceptable!! how about the car not turning on due to low oil or things of such instead of the car turning on and allowing you to drive enough to get up to 50 mph then just shutting down. Again today and car is being towed to dealer. I have uconnect and receive emails of my car diagnostics. Only 3 days ago it sent a "suggested" oil change. Understand that uconnect has an "immediate action needed" alert. If the car shuts down I would assume this should be an immediate action not a suggestion. There is no oil indicator on my dashboard. This is a huge safety issue and concern and must be immediately. I will be reaching out to any and all news stations that will hear my story and read the hundreds reported if legitimate action is not taken specific to this life saftey issue! I was in a car accident in 2017 and an airbag blew my left eye apart and has left me blinded in one eye. I purchased this vehicle to make me feel safe due to the blind spot alert function. I now have to be concerned that I may jeopardized the safety of myself and others over an oil change"! I hope this reaches the right source and I hope they read the hundreds of other reports that are exactly the same or Jeep will be on the news and all those that turned a cheek. Consumer stated her fianc stopped at the dealership this morning and again they are stating this happens when the oil is low.

It has shut down on me 4 times while driving. The emergency brake comes on by itself. The low oil pressure light came on the one time it shut down on me mid turn. Which is not possible for low oil pressure. It usually shuts down while going 25 to 35 mph on a city street but has shut down on me while merging onto the expressway.

While driving my car and making a turn on a busy intersection in Chicago my car completely shut off. It appears to be on, but I cannot accelerate. I turn the car off, there's a stall before my car completely restarts. No lights have come on at all. When the car finally comes back on, the emergency brake is activated and it takes some time to get it to turn off. I am not due for an oil change for at least another 2K miles.

Engine shuts off while driving and the emergency brake comes on. Very dangerous, was almost in an accident. Bedders brothers has told me it's due to low oil pressure and is common with these vehicles. I do not want my wife or anyone else driving it. What will it take for a resolution or recall?

I lease my 2018 Jeep Compass. On four occasions the car has stalled and not been able to operate. Two of the stalling has been in traffic while the car was in motion (highway and intersection). Everytime I take the car in for service the dealership can't duplicate the problem. It did stall again at the dealership so I left it again. On all the occasions dealer had a look they said it was a part that needed to be repaired, then a software update. Then saying they left too much cleaner. Just last week I picked up my car from dealership with a full tank. I drove 100 miles miles and the fuel indicator did not move at all. I know when I have a full tank of gas I have a total range of 326 miles. Then the total range number kept fluctuating. At one point it said I had 328 miles left then went down to 200 then back up to 300 all within 6 miles of driving with a 3/4 tank full. Therefore it wasn't accurate. I took the car back in and dealership said it was due to a software update but I just had a software update last week. At this point I don't feel safe driving this car and I fear for my safety and am scared for the next time my car decides to stop while driving. It is unsafe and a hazard to myself and others.

I exited the highway during rush hour morning traffic. My Jeep stopped all the sudden. The engine shut itself off and engaged the emergency brake. It didn't keep rolling or let me get out of the lane of traffic. I sat there for ten minutes with car honking and swerving around me. I took it to the dealership. They said these cars (Jeep Compass) are notoriously bad about stalling out because they burn oil quickly and the oil light won't come on. They told me to constantly check my oil. I bought it brand new last year. I've had it about a year a half. I called Chrysler customer service. They told me 'yes. These 2.4 liter engines burn oil too quickly. It is a known issue. The Jeep will cut off without any warning while driving. This is a safety issue for myself and other drivers on the road with these Jeep. You cannot move the car once it does this.

- Arlington, TX, USA

My car's light to have it's oil changed turned on, then immediately after my engine shut off while I was making a sharp left turn. Happened 2 more times before I could get to the shop. Was told I was completely out of oil so they refilled the tank and told me this was my fault- within 1000 miles my low oil pressure light quickly turned on and off and my engine turned off again while I was turning. Took car to shop and they said I was again out of oil - I insisted they look deeper since I found numerous online forums with people experiencing the same dangerous issue. The dealership discovered my engine was overly consuming the oil and an entire engine replacement was necessary.

The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Compass. While driving 35 mph, the vehicle shut off without warning and the emergency brake engaged independently. On another occasion, while the contact's wife was driving highway speeds, the failure recurred and the low oil pressure warning indicator illuminated. The vehicle was taken to South county Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram (455 automall dr, gilroy, ca 95020, 408-842-8244) where it was determined that this was a normal occurrence. The contact was advised to check the oil frequently. The failure persisted and the same dealer provided the contact's wife the same information again. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and referred the contact to NHTSA. The vehicle had not been repaired. The failure mileage was 7,708.

A few months after owning this vehicle with less than 4,000 miles on it just stopped without any warning while my 16 yo was driving on a busy city street. She was able to coast to the side of the road and call us. We drive 40 min to where she was and the car started up. I drove it right to the dealer where they said they couldn't find anything wrong with it, but updated a few computer things. Within a few days it happened again to my daughter as this is her car. The car just completely shuts down without any warning. Had it towed to the dealer where they told me there was almost no oil in the vehicle. I have been taking the car in for oil consumption testing every 1,000 miles and I know that between the 2,000-3,000 mile point the oil is below the 'safe zone'. in one year with 10,000 miles in this car, I have made 6 trips to the dealer and they have had to put numerous quarts of oil in this car. I have never had this issue in any other vehicle I have owned. This is a very concerning issue for anyone driving these vehicles and makes me nervous every time my daughter is driving this 'new' car. I can not believe these cars have not been recalled. There is no low oil warning light. This car just stops while driving down the road and will cause a serious accident if it hasn't already.

My car has stalled out several times on the interstate and in busy in town traffic all due to low oil pressure. I have taken my car in several times to have the oil topped off because my dipstick is showing no oil. This happens about every 500 miles. This car is a death trap!

- Council Bluffs, IA, USA

Engine eats oil way to much around 709 miles it will start to roughly idle and when checking the oil levels it's 2 quarts low. I can also be driving and the vehicle will jerk when trying to get up to speed thrusting me forward like it's having trouble.

The 2.4 engine in the 2018 Compass is using oil at a very high rate. In the first 3200 miles our Jeep used 3.5 quarts of oil. The oil got so low that the car stall in the middle of a busy highway on my wife. The performance of this vehicle is unsafe, you never know when the oil get low and the car stalls. I have followed up with the dealer who referred me to Chrysler customer care. I spoke with a person there who advised that a quart of oil in a 1000 miles was acceptable. I advies her that a new car should not be using any oil. Chrysler knows there is a problem with the 2.4 engine and their answer is " we will put you on a oil change program"> I am not the only owner that is having a problem with the Jeep Compass, all you have to do is google Jeep Compass 2.4 engine oil problem. The long and the short of this is, there is a problem with the 2.4 engine, Chrysler knows it and will not recall it. The car is unsafe because it will stop running at anytime or anyplace when the oil get low. My wife was nearly broadside because the car stopped in the middle of a travel lane. When she got the car running again it stopped several more time before we were made aware of the oil problem. This car should be recalled due to the engine problem. I shouldn't have to keep adding oil to a $30K plus vehicle. Recall it before some one get killed.

Shortly after moving the vehicle while driving at times the engine will completely turn off leaving the vehicle unable to accelerate. The only way to turn the vehicle back on is to come to a complete stop place the vehicle in park and turn it back on. Vehicle just hit 7000 miles complications started 2 weeks ago and it has happened 5X now

My 2018 Jeep Compass ran out of oil. Oil plug is in tact and it looks like it's leaking around the oil pump right behind the alternator. Yesterday it was fine this morning started it pulled out and the low oil pressure light came on. I immediately parked it. Checked oil and it was empty.

- Sunbury, PA, USA

Narrative: In August 2019, I was driving from my home toward the highway at approximately 35 mph when my 2018 Jeep Compass lost power. I could not accelerate so I coasted to the side of the road and shifted into park. (luckily, I had not reached the highway and was not in danger of being rear-ended due to the sudden loss of acceleration!) I noticed the parking brake had engaged and I could not release it. The low oil light then flashed on. I turned off the vehicle and restarted it, but it would not shift into drive. The D button was flashing, but the vehicle would not go in gear. I turned the vehicle off and on twice more until it finally allowed me to shift into drive. I attempted a K-turn in a driveway to drive the vehicle back to my home, when the vehicle lost power again, the parking brake engaged and the low oil light reappeared. I turned the engine off and on and again I couldn't move. I waited for 5 minutes and finally was able to release the parking brake and shift into reverse. I shifted to drive after exiting the driveway and after driving 1/8 of a mile the power failed again. After waiting another few minutes, I was able to drive home to park in my driveway and asked my husband to check the oil. The oil reservoir was practically empty! we contacted the dealership and we were told to put some oil in it and drive it to the dealership for a service appointment. Comments: This occurrence put me in a very unsafe situation that caused me great anxiety. I hate to think what could've happened on our very busy highway that I travel on for many miles daily. This vehicle needs to give the driver a warning before the oil level is so low it stops the vehicle in the middle of traffic! I have read many testimonials from other Jeep Compass owners who have experienced the same problem. I don't feel safe driving this Jeep with my family!

The 2018 Jeep Compass engines have an unresolvable defect causing the oil to burn at an accelerated rate. It is a dangerous safety issue for anyone driving a 2018 Jeep Compass. The vehicle requires synthetic oil which would normally give you 5,000 drivable miles or 5 months before having to get an oil change. After only 2,000 miles, while driving my Jeep Compass, it shut off without any warning. Luckily, there was no traffic on the road because the only thing I was able to do was coast to the shoulder and brake. Only when the engine shut down did a low oil pressure light come on. I never would have bought this vehicle if I knew that the car would shut down with no warning. Absolutely zero warning...no oil warning light, no message, no symbol, nothing. This happened again last week, just shy of 3 months after my last oil change. I immediately took it to the dealership and was told that after they change the oil (again), I will have to drive the vehicle, despite the safety issues, for another 1,000 miles so they can conduct an oil consumption test. After that, they will need to do a bore test to see if there is scoring in the cylinders. I was told that I will most likely need a new engine. I then researched this issue and was appalled at the sheer number of people this is happening to and despite the complaints, Chrysler has not issued a recall. In fact, they are still selling this car to people even with a serious design flaw. There should be an immediate recall of all 2018 Jeep compasses before someone dies, if someone hasn't already. I don't want to be a statistic. I am lucky in that both of the times my Jeep shut off, there was no traffic around me. I have read complaints by people who were driving with their children on highways when their cars just shut off. How terrifying. This is an extremely dangerous situation and should be addressed immediately by Chrysler. The consumer stated the engine was replaced.
