Three problems related to air bag have been reported for the 2007 Jeep Compass. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
The tipm is failing caused me to stall at 70mph on a highway in traffic doors unlocked and then threw all electrical codes.
I bought this vehicle and put $423 into the front end replacing rotors, brakes, wheel bearings, hub assembly and control arm bushings only to take it to a garage to find out why it was still impossible to drive safely. I was told by two different garages that it isn't safe to drive because the struts and whole front end is damaged beyond repair that would cost more than the vehicle is worth. Also the car dealership has removed the airbags and now made it nonstickerable. You can't drive it without the vehicle feeling like the front end is gonna fall out and is unable to control the steering.
Both the driver side and passenger curtain airbags deployed without any impact while the brake was engaged at a stoplight. The airbags did not deflate and were cut down by the paramedics so that I could exit the car. Injuries were sustained, bruising, swelling, black eye and burns from the airbag deployment. Independent investigators were unable to determine the cause of deployment. Currently waiting for Jeep to remedy the situation. Waiting for a settlement for my Jeep, medical, and rental bills so I can purchase another vehicle.
