Seven problems related to car stall have been reported for the 2011 Jeep Compass. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Several times after filling up my 2011 Jeep Compass with gas, I turn the car on and drive off. In minutes the steering locks up and car stalls. Car is getting power, all components are still working (lights, radio, etc. ). I turn car off and restart and it sputters and finally starts and is drivable. I have read several other complaints of the same issue and it is dangerous due to the steering locking up and the inability to control the car when it stalls.
Filled tank and car stalled while driving away three times (after driving a short distance) called for a tow and taken to mechanic where they couldn't identify the problem. Then again, approximately three months later, stalled after filling the gas tank while making a left out of the gas station across traffic. Quickly restarted the car, it bucked as though about to stall after another 3/4 mile, and then ran fine. Largest concern is directly after fill up, but there is frequently a buck/hesitation when accelerating as well.
