My car just shuts down randomly while I'm driving it. The dashboard lights up red and says overheated. It doesn't start back up right away. I have had It to the dealership several times for this problem. They hook it up to their computer and it doesn't show anything wrong. This has been a continuing problem for the last several months. I do not feel safe driving this car. I never know if I'm going to make it home safely.

About a month ago my car showed a warning that essentially said "Find a safe place to stop your car will stop soon". I had to get a jump start but I did make it to the dealership to get the batteries changed. A week or so after the return of car my check engine light came on again. It went off 2 days later but the car stalled as I was driving it shortly after. I was at a stop light and it just shut down. I had to put the car in park. Turn it off and restart it. Saturday I was on my way to work and the coolant temp went full red, then no notches and the car stopped while I was driving. I had added coolant the day before because it wouldn't blow heat only cool air. Nonetheless it is currently in the shop. I had to get it towed as it started smoking. The biggest problem is that this time it did not advise that it would stop. It just stopped at 6:30 am in the dark on a 4 lane road.

While traveling down the roadway, a message will pop up on the middle information area that reads, -??Stop Safely Vehicle Will Shut Off Soon.-?? Both the main battery, auxiliary battery checked and both tested good. (Replaced both less than 2 months ago) No check engine light. No battery light. No change in voltage. No change in any temperatures. The vehicle did shut off. But after shutting off for about 10 minutes, started back up with no problems. However after driving in secondary road for about 15 minutes, the same message popped up on the display.

The on off start failed to operate. It didn't start two mornings and I had to have it jump started. It failed to start while parking. The sheck auto start light finally came on. I called the jeep dealer and I can't get an appointment until October and i am afraid to drive the car like this. In 2020 it malfunctioned while I was driving over Red Mountain pass on a cliff edge and luckily wasn't killed. They repaired it. but now it is n ot working again.

I'm having the same issue with my Jeep Compass 2019 as hundreds of others with no help from JEEP. Engine stalled 4 times already this month after a quick error message "coolant temperature too high" was displayed and immediately disappeared. But enough for the engine to stop completely. It happened at freeway exit ramp, driveway ramp, traffic light. Someone will get KILLED. I contacted Jeep. No help even though they are aware of this issue. Dealer could not recreate problem. Paid a fortune. Got it out of the dealer and it is still doing it. I can't keep driving like this. I called my old mechanic and he said that only a dealer can do a software update since it seems it is a glitch. Dealer updated software. Still doing it. Somebody needs to take this seriously before it is too late. I need somebody to help me. This site mentions this issue multiple times and shows that JEEP is aware of this issue. No dealer has been able to fix it: https://www.myjeepcompass.com/threads/error-message-%E2%80%9Chigh-coolant-temperature%E2%80%9D.44398/ Thank you.

My daughter was driving her Jeep Cherokee on the interstate Saturday night when the closed sunroof completely shattered, dropping shards of glass on her. We called the dealership where we purchased the car and was told to file an insurance claim. This is a safety issue involving a defective product and not caused by the driver.

I was driving with my daughter in the car and when the engine shut off on me. Luckily I was pulling up to a red light. I was able to stop but the brakes locked up on me and I couldn't restart the car. Many warning messages appeared like "steering torque service required" "anti-lock brake system service required" "ecs system need service" etc. I had just had my car serviced for a routine oil change a couple of days before at a Jeep dealership and nothing was mentioned to me that needed servicing. I then had the car towed to the dealership AutoNation Roseville Chrysler Jeep and Dodge and they do not know what is wrong with it. This is a real safety issue with a car shutting down while driving. I am just happy that I wasn't on the freeway when this happened.

On May 1st 2021 I was driving my car home which I've only had for about 7 months (under 36K miles) home and my windshield wipers started moving (even though they weren't on) I turn the knob to turn them off and I get a message that 'service shifter'. I go home and park the car. About a hour later I come back out and try the car again and same thing windshield wipers moving while off, turn the knob to turn them off and 'service shifter' message pops up along messages about my lights being out, my A/C quit working and my break light came on! to top it off my gear shift was completely black and you could not put it into any gear. Would not move. Though it was in the park position the car would not turn off because it was saying it wasn't in park. It was a complete nightmare. What if this would've happen in drive or reverse"! I go on a car gurus forum and there are hundreds of people who have had this issue. Where is the recall?!"! people are going to get hurt by this. So I guess Jeep/Chrysler would rather have lawsuits then to fix this ongoing problem. The dealer has had my car for almost a week and still no update. This is ridiculous! Jeep do better!

I bought my 2019 Jeep Compass limited from a dealership on 11/18/2020. Since that day it has been in the shop 4 times. Three times because the start /stop kept coming on saying to have it serviced and because it stopped on me at a stop sign and would not go, had to turn it off and it craked again telling me start/stop has malfunctioned! today1/26/2021 all lights on dash came on it lost power on the interstate and told me to stop have engine serviced now. Shut down would not crank had to call a tow truck to take to delearship. From what I have read these cars are a piece of crap and Jeep needs to take notice!! Jeep should not be allowed to sale a vehicle with so many known problems!! so sorry I left Honda for this!!!!!!!!

I came to a red light; my car cut off like normal; when I took my foot off the break it would not start back up. I had to cut my hazards on. I put my vehicle in park and tried to turn my vehicle on. I tried 3 times and it finally started. My vehicle started making weird noises; on my control panel it said start/stop not ready battery protection mode. I parked my car and let it cool of for 2 hours. I got in my vehicle, started, left my house, when I got to the stop sign. It did the same thing. Im honestly scared to drive my vehicle.

It sounds like the framing under my hood is bouncing. Anytime I'm driving on the road, I hear knocking every time I hit the slightest bump. Sounds as if something is loose and not secured. Definitely scary since it's a 2019 Jeep Compass, basically a brand new vehicle.

The touch screen radio is switching radio stations by itself. When you touch the station on the screen it goes back to another station

My car had stalling and shutting off problems while driving in three occasions, one day it happened 2 times, after a stop light, immediately after the vehicle restarted and then again after a stop sign, this time the check engine sign was on as a result. 3rd time it was when restarting after an intersection stop, when crossing after turning left, fortunately the car continued to the other end with the 1st acceleration impulse, and this time it turned on the emergency brake.

This is my third complaint on this 2019 Jeep Compass. While driving the vehicle stalls and the emergency brake and other lights come on. The vehicle is unable to be restarted and has to be towed. The dealership has updated software, and now has said that the car is low on oil every three weeks and that's why it stalls in the middle of traffic extremely dangerous and I have a baby on the way!. the oil change indicator doesn't ever show up and the manufacturer just gives the run around.

Vehicle will not start. 1st time was the day I purchased the car with only 41 miles on it. I had it parked at my home and entered the vehicle to go somewhere when I pushed the start button the radio and ac came on and the screen said on however it would not turn over. Don jackson came and picked the vehicle up which at that time it cranked up with no problem. They had my car all day. 5 days later the car did same thing now don jackson has the vehicle again. The car has 88 miles on it and I had it for 7 days in which 3 of those days the dealer have it and can't find the problem
