1 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 03/26/2021

My anti-lock brake system fault indicator, stability control indicator and 4 wheel drive (with exclamation point) indicator are on when engine starts. Within 15 seconds of me driving, all indicator lights briefly turn off. That is followed by a ~5 seconds of my car stalling with the stability control indicator blinking. Shortly after, all lights turn back on. This is an ongoing issue that I have tested multiple times over the course of a week. I am worried to take my car outside of my neighborhood and believe it is an issue caused by the vehicle as opposed to self-inflicted. Note: I have replaced the battery and the issue remains. The vehicle has just under 75,000 miles.

2 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 12/09/2020

I have a 2014 keep Compass with a 2. 0l engine and for some time now it has been stalling out really bad and also has problems with wanting to start but today on December the 9th at about 5:30pm or so I was driving down the interstate at a high speed of about 80mph when I had noticed my car was trying to get kinda hot so I turned my heater on to see if that would drop the temperature gauge down any which mind you it did not but instead I lost all engine power and also acceleration as well and when I would give gas it would not do anything but rise my rpms to extremely high level so the only thing I knew to do was get it off of the road as quickly as possible. What's concerning me though is that their is a recall on my car but with a 2. 4l engine not the 2. 0l but when I was reading the recall for said engine type the exact same symptoms applied to what my car did today so I'm wondering if that recall should be applied to the 2. 0l engines as well.

As I was driving yesterday my vehicle just randomly stalled out on me and after searching I find that this was an issue that lead to a recall. My vehicle at times will shutter/hesitate or whatever you want to call it which is also described in the recall. I don't believe this issue was properly resolved when the previous owner supposedly had it fixed.

10 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 06/04/2018

My Jeep constantly stalls when driving it. I can be at a stop light and begin to accelerate once it turns green as soon as I start moving it stalls. If I'm on the highway and try to speed up to pass someone it stalls. I have had so many issues with this Jeep after purchasing it with 9,000+ miles on it in 2015. I was driving it on the NJ turnpike when it completely stopped accelerating. My youngest daughter was in the car and it frightened both of us as on coming cars were dodging us. I took it back to the dealer and was told it was a fuse. The fuse blew again while driving on the same highway. I've had to replace the tie rods, the brakes the rotors all four tires fuses alternator and now a brake switch. The Jeep stalls while driving and I have to look at the dashboard to make sure it's still accelerating so that I don't have a scare like I did the times when the fuses blew. I've written several letters to the corporate office in regards to having so many issues and basically I was told that I drive the Jeep too much. First of all I thought people bought vehicles to drive them. In any event I was told to read the consumer report on this vehicle and realized the stalling may not be from the fuses and whatever makes them blow out. When asked about the fuses in the beginning one of the maintenance personnel said to me a car is a machine and sometimes machines don't operate the way they should. I pretty much gave up on that place and Jeep as a whole. I purchased a lemon and Chrysler Jeep Dodge couldn't care any less.

11 Car Stall problem

Failure Date: 03/30/2018

The throttle body control would not allow my Jeep to merge on the highway. I was merging on to the highway and as soon as the it got up to 2500 rpm it would not shift. I had to let off of the gas and pull to the side of the road because it started reving all of the way up to 7000 rpm in order to shift. The lighting bolt symbol came on during all of this and stayed on. I tried then to exit the highway and it did it once again, but this time it stalled completely. The Jeep would go as long as I didn't go past 2500 rpm. As soon as I got safely off the highway I took it to a mechanic on the same street. I had to replace the throttle body unit and it ended up costing around 530 usd. Now I am having the exact same symptoms before the last time the unit broke.
