The vehicle has an automatic start stop function that randomly turns off the vehicle when at a stop sign and puts the brake on. This has happen 3 times since leasing this car last year. I took the car into the dealership after the second occurrence to get it checked out but they could not duplicate the problem. The first occurrence was around 6 months after getting the car.

Vehicle shut off at stop light, parking break engaged and disengaged, Drive shift was flashing, dash was flashing. I shut the vehicle off twice because it happened twice in the same moment until the third time it allowed me to drive.

Occurs at stop sign/light when idling. The car will shut off and will not turn back on although all features in the car are running. The screen will display -??engine running-?? but the vehicle will not drive. I will push the stop/start button and nothing happens. It will take a few minutes for the vehicle to come back on again. This has happened numerous times at random. I have taken my vehicle to two separate dealerships and neither have been able to figure out how to repair the issue. I do not feel safe as this is a high risk for accident and I have two children who are in the vehicle.

On [XXX] I left the Safeway Gas station on [XXX] I came out the parking lot and made a right and stopped at the light. As soon as I stopped, my car cut off. I put my car and park and push the ignition. I press the ignition again to cut it on everything came on but the car would not start. I sat there for two hours before getting a tow at the stop light that changed colors several different times with my anxiety high because cars were honking, people were yelling at me because I was blocking traffic. I could not put my car into a different gear to even push it off to the side of the road. My car was towed to Sacramento Dodge Chrysler Jeep. Later that day, The representative called and told me that they don-??t know what is wrong with the car, he-??s never seen this happen before and that my car would qualify as a lemon. I-??ve placed a request for Jeep to buy back my car the first one was denied, the case manager resubmitted the request and I-??ve heard nothing after being told I would be called in 3-4 business days. I-??ve called them several times and I-??m not hearing anything back. Also, I was not aware of the recall on my car until I came in for the issue on this day. Nothing was sent to me to let me know there was an open recall on my car. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

Good evening, My name is [XXX], I live in Boca Raton, FL, USA, and own a new car: Jeep 2022 Compass Lattitude VIN [XXX]. I report a serious safety hazard that can cause a crash injury or death that needs to be investigated and corrected. On Thursday, November 9 2023 I picked up my car from Arrigo Chrysler Jeep Autodealer located at 2250 FL-7, Margate, FL 33063 where my car was present for 13 (thirteen) days for the following service: a replacement of lost/stolen car keys. On the way from the Autodealer, my car started to push forward and back on the road when I pressed the acceleration pedal. The following signs immediately switched on: "Service Transmission", "Stop/Start System", "Tire pressure". I was able to immediately drive back to the Arrigo Chrysler Jeep Auto dealer. When I was returning an unsafe car, they reported to me: "an issue with the transmission", but have not clarified the code nor explained it to me. This accident on the road put me in fear for my life and I started to feel very anxious. I could not concentrate on the road. As of today, November, 30 my car is still present at the Arrigo Chrysler Jeep Auto dealer at 2250 FL-7, Margate, FL 33063 and I am not aware of what issue put my life and the life of my son in danger. I initiated contact with an auto dealer via email two (2) times: on November, 15 and November, 27, and have never received a response. Instead, today, November 30, 2023 at 5:43 pm I received a voicemail from Enterprise-Rent-A-Car that -??I am set up by Arrigo Auto Dealership to return a rental car" that was provided to me on November 9, 2023, at a time when I drop off broken car. An issue with a brand new car that my family is going through and that I am making payments for is not acceptable to me or to any customers in the USA. I request to investigate the serious safety hazard defect of the car Jeep Compass 2022 that put my family's life in danger. Sincerely, [XXX].

When I am stopped at a red light, once the light turns green I go to accelerate and the vehicle stalls. The car is still on but the engine completely shuts off. The only way for the vehicle to move again is by turning the car off and then on again. It is extremely dangerous and I have almost been rear ended because of it. Another issue I am having is when I go to accelerate the car jolts and has a grip to it. It feels like something is pulling the car back and I have to push extra hard on the gas to move the car. This happens a lot when merging on the high way or accelerating on side streets.

I have my car for 2 years and the engine has stalled on me 4-5 times at lights trying to come out of the start stop mode. I-??ve almost been rear ended multiple times. When these random incidents occur cars behind me do not know what is going on. I took my car to the dealer on 10/3/2023 and they were able to duplicate the problem as I-??ve stated it does it at random the code service shifter also flashes on the dash as well as auto start stop not available. But the dealer says the codes are not stored and can-??t find them.

Jeep shuts off while driving when foot is removed from petal has to come to complete stop before it can be restarted

- Fairfield Township, OH, USA

The car is supposed to turn off and on when making stops because of the eco mode. There are times where the car will turn off at the red lights and will not turn back on automatically. Other times the car will just completely shut off when coming to a stop. The engine is killed. A complete restart to the car has to happen in order to make it work again. This issue is not identified through the Jeep dealership. They asked to record it next time it happens because their computer isn-??t reading any issues to the

- Unsure what is failing. With increasing frequency, 22 Jeep Compass Sport repeatedly stalls (1+ time every few months since OCT -??22) when trying to accelerate after stopping, always (except for one time) engaging auto ebrake, and always requiring a shift to park and engine restart. Engine shuts off, but malfunction is likely related to auto start, as it hasn-??t occurred when auto start is already pressed off. Latest failure 28JUN at stop sign near home after a 20-second stop, and auto start turn-off failed after restart. This instance is notable in that: this problem is increasing in frequency, duration of stop was short (unlike usual at 1-3 minute stoplights), this occurs whether or not engine was running long beforehand, and is first time the auto start off-button failed. This is also the shortest interval in between instances, as it occurred last week. Available to inspect. -Safety concerns: always occurs in heavy traffic, always during required acceleration, potentially leading to collision at light/in intersection; always antagonizes other drivers. Has not occurred at high speeds (yet), but have read online claims of similar occurrences in Jeeps at highway speeds, risking fatality. -Dealer service was unable to replicate. Dealer was not denying, but unable to diagnose without replication. No codes indicate problem. Personally was only able to replicate once when deliberately trying in empty parking lot. Reported to Jeep in JAN -??23, then to dealer service at time of diagnostics. -Problem has only been checked by local dealer service. No crashes (yet) so no police or insurance. -Unlike other reports, no warnings prior to failure for me, only -??ebrake on-?? light after failure. -Jeep fanboy forums say cause is low fluids. Wrong, but even if true no car should shut down and endanger lives when brake fluid or even oil is a little low. New cars leaking like sieves would also be yet another Jeep-centric problem. Wife and I know how to drive and check fluids.

Start/stop system. (Shuts engine off at red light, then turns back on when you take foot off brake and press gas) Was at a red light, when light turned green the car did not move. Had to put the car in park and hit the ignition button a few times before it would go.

Car has overheated and needed to be towed twice, the most recent being today. Car overheats suddenly and breaks down in unsafe locations including the interstate. The car has been to the dealership four times for engine problems with no fix. Check engine light comes on after car overheats.

- Cooperstown, NY, USA

When I was traveling on the highway at 65 MPH, the car suddenly stalled placing my life in great danger, it was also difficult to steer off the road as it would not restart nor accelerate. Once the car was over to the side of the road it would not restart after several attempts. The car restarted after 1 hour of being on the side of the road and I drove it home, 2 days later it would not start when attempting to drive it for repair. The vehicle has been towed to the Chrysler dealer where it was purchased.

Please see uploaded documents for a personal account of all issues on the 2022 Jeep Compass. Yes, it is available for inspection. No warning indications prior to incidents. I went to dealership & they are aware of issues with the mechanical & electrical system, however they did not offer any resolution. No, the vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer or anyone else. The issues began within a few days of being bought on 9/12/22. The incidents are random, ongoing, and increasing. No, the issues have not been reproduced or confirmed by anyone. I live 2 hrs from the dealership, however I have made numerous trips to them & on 1/24/23 did make them aware of the problems in writing. I have tried returning the vehicle on several occasions. No one would work with me, return phone calls or emails. They did agreed to a trade but with a $10,000 charge for trading this vehicle in for another one just like it but cheaper cash price of $32,595. That was 9/22/2022, 10 days after signing the contract. However I have been calling & email the salesman & business manager from day one. I am convinced they sold me a Lemon & are preditory lenders considering how they have treated me. The salesman tore the window sticker off the Jeep, waded it up & threw it away the night it was bough. He also did not give me my trade in license plate, or my extra key fob to the new vehicle. I have since gotten the key fob on a trip there. The license plate is gone. I have called & went by numerous times with no one willing to work with me concerning the Jeep on all situations. I have since learn Base MSRP is $26,525. My contract was written for $38,864 in total. Cash price was $35,305. They also financed a down payment through a credit card company when told I had no down payment of $3,000, which is a separate payment. I am not sure this is where I complain about Preditory Lending but I thought it wouldn't hurt to share my situation considering the issues I am having with the physical vehicle.
