Battery Dead problems of the 2018 Jeep Compass

I have a 2018 Jeep Compass latitude and on numerous occasions have had the car stall at red lights when shutting off from braking, when releasing my foot from the brake the car failed to accelerate with other vehicles behind me. In these instances I have had to put my car in park and then power it off and restart it as the quickest fix. This has also happened to me in drive thrus while stopping to pay and at stop signs, all doing the same thing after braking and the automatic start/stop engaging. The other issue I have had has occured while driving down the road/highway. This has happened to me three times now. In one instance I was going 30 mph and my car just stopped accelerating and the power stirring no longer would work, the screen displayed a message saying to put my vehicle in park and that my vehicle needed to be started before it could be shifted and the d shown on my dash was blinking. When the car started to slow I tried to pull over, but my power stirring wouldn't work and I was froced to stay in the middle of the road. Another time I was truning a corner at a red light and in the process of the turn going around 15 mph my car dash showed the same message and performed the same way with no power stirring. The third time I was going 55 mph down a highway and the car did the same thing. In each of these instances I put my car in park, pressed the break and the start button and the car did not start, on the second time it did not start as well and sounded as if my car was not going to start at all and stalled like the battery was dead, which it clearly was not. Eventually the car starts and I could then shift to drive and proceed as normal. This is not okay though, and extremely dangerous. My car is not very old and does not have a lot of miles on it at the times these occured I was at 31,000- 36,000 miles.

The vehicle was stopped at a traffic light and the start/stop feature was engaged. When my foot was taken off the brake, the vehicle would not restart like it was supposed to. I put it in park and tried to restart it and it would not restart. The battery was not dead as the lights were working as well as many warning lights illuminated on the instrument panel. This is the third time in three years that this vehicle will go to the dealership for a similar issue. The diagnoses seems to be different each time, but ultimately I take it in for the same issue and it still has not been fixed. This is a safety issue that left me stranded in the middle of four lane highway. The last time it happened the vehicle went into limp mode on the interstate. Eventually this is going to cause a major accident and could possibly kill me or my family. It's happened twice in start/stop mode at a stop light and once in motion on the interstate at 70mph.

Multiple times I would try to start the vehicle and the battery would be dead. After jumping the car off it would operate without a problem. I took the car to a repair shop and had it checked but no problems were found. On 02/01/2021 the car again would not start. I had a mechanic jump the car off and I let it idle to build up the battery. After a few minutes there was a noise and then smoke started coming out from under the hood. Then fire!.

Car stalled going down the freeway without warning, taken to dealership and was told low on oil, oil changed and no word of oil consumption problem, asked and got an oil consumption test at dealer to which they said 1 quart per 2000 miles is normal. Had independent oil consumption test done at masons automotive and the car is burning 1 quart of oil every 747 miles. Now a recall to reprogram the computer. The car is also on its 3rd set of batteries due to battery failure, both batteries had failed leaving us stranded as the batteries fail instantly. Drove the car and parked it, came back little later and the car won't start all warning and error lights start flashing and can't stop them, had to tow the car to the dealer.

I started my car like normal and reversed and drove forward down street. I noticed the car kept making jolting motions. I came to a stop sign and as I began to take off and was in the roadway the parking brake engaged and the brake and gas pedals locked up and the car slowly came to a stop. I put the car in park and tried to disengage the parking brake. It turned off but the brake and gas pedals were still jammed. I turned the car off and let it sit for a minute and pressed the power button to try and restart the car. It started making a noise as if the battery was dead and shut back off. I let it sit for a bit longer and tried again. This time it did the same thing but eventually turned on. I then put the car in drive and proceeded to press on the gas to see if it would move forward. It did but happened again at the next intersection I had to stop at. Every time this would occur it would nudge forward just enough for me to be in the intersection and it would take a couple tries to get the car to restart in order to move. This problem continued and finally a light popped up that said "oil pressure low" so I checked the oil and it was just about empty. I had just had the oil the oil changed a couple weeks before so the oil should not have been anywhere near empty. I replaced the oil and the problem stopped. I have been making sure to check oil daily and replace as needed but now the car is jittery at times.

The contact owns a 2018 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that on multiple occasions, the battery power failed and the vehicle could not be started. The cause of the failure was not determined. The local dealer englewood Chrysler Jeep located at 100 sylvan Ave, englewood cliffs, NJ 07632 and the manufacturer were notified of the failure however, no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 28,000.
