The vehicle keep on honking on it own. We took the vehicle to the dealership which the diagnosed and repaired the problem but the vehicle from time keeps honking. We took it back to the dealership they say there's no code showing up for the and it never went off while there.
Jeep Compass has just over 61,000 miles, when turning to go up my driveway the control arm fell to the ground. I had to purchase new vehicle as this was unsafe to drive. The service department at lia Jeep of northampton reported to me that I would keep continuing having other problems with underneath the car even if repaired as it was so bad. This is why I chose to get new vehicle. Metro Jeep of chicopee, MA took is as a trade and will be towed there today. 10/4/19 I was very thankful that this did not happen at high rate of speed or I may not be typing this right now.
Car randomly shuts off while in motion. Will restart after shut off. Has does this many times . This has been happening for quite some time. Looked it up and it's a common problem that needs to be addressed.
Filled my gas tank at the gas station before getting onto the highway. Car stalled and turned off merging onto the highway about a mile down the road. Lost control of breaks and steering. No warning lit up on dash. Googled and found out many others have this issue. This is dangerous and I was almost killed, something needs to be done.
I've owned a 2010 Jeep Compass for two years now. I use it as a work vehicle. Recently it started making a very rough sounding noise going down the road. It would be deep and disgruntled and then high pitched almost whistling. I took it to a mechanic and they said the front subframe is rusted so bad it's unsafe to drive. So I started looking into the issue online and there are dozens and dozens of other Jeep owners complaining about the same issue with their Jeeps. And to make it all worse Jeep seems to want to do nothing about it. It's unsafe and it's going to get someone severely hurt or killed.
First of all, this is one of the most common complaints of the entire Jeep Compass line and it still has not been recalled. My Jeep Compass 2010 stalls randomly when I drive and is a major hazard. 2 mechanics including a local dealer are unable to diagnose the problem (which is a common theme in all of complaints regarding the Jeep Compass). It has almost caused an accident several times with me (another common theme) and it may eventually take a death for it to be on the radar for an actual recall. It has happened in the driveway driving 5mph or on the highway driving 70mph. It is extremely frightening. There is no warning sign. The car drives incredibly well when it is not stalling. Shame on the NHTSA for not recalling this yet. I will never purchase a Jeep again since there is no support from their end or even from the national service here. I got scared the last time it stalled and jammed my finger on the steering wheel to steer it to the shoulder on a highway driving 70mph! the car had about 84k miles on it, but the stalling happens on even the newer models with less than 2,000 miles driven!!.
Occupant restraint controller been waiting since 2016 September called 10 times and no parts I better not get in an accident and I have an injury.
The Jeep Compass 2010 powertrain control module (pcm) failed resulting in the Jeep to be inoperable. Because the Jeep was parked in a driveway no accident occurred. If this key module is prone to failure and the Jeep is on the road the driver would lose control of the vehicle.
