My emergency brake engages while my vehicle is in drive during auto assist feature is on. My vehicle stalls. I have to put my vehicle in park, then shut my car off and restart it while in traffic. I have been in several near collisions. I have been a victim of road rage. My 2019 Compass has been experiencing this issue since July 2020. After 11 service visits, my vehicle is still not fixed and the dealership is no longer willing to help. They say there is nothing that can be done.

3 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 06/22/2022

The Compass randomly stalls when the auto stop start is engaged and the car is stopped. It stalls when we press the gas and the emergency brake automatically engages. The car has to be put in park, emergency brake turned off and then restart the car. It has happened at stop signs, lights, traffic and intersections. It does not happen when we press the stop start button so it does not go on. Brought to the dealer and they could not recreate and never heard of problem. They had it for 10 days.

4 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 02/19/2021

Today my car stopped (again) in the middle of the road as I was driving and the emergency brake light went on. This is the third time that this has happened to me and I am literally scared out of mind to drive this car that I purchased for my birthday. I've only had the car for 6 months and this is a major safety hazard.

5 Automatic Emergency Braking problem

Failure Date: 02/03/2021

I parked my car in my drive lastnight just like every night; and I walked out this morning and the back end of my car was in the street! it rolled back more than half of my driveway! please understand that yes it snowed here in NJ however there was rock salt (a significant amount on my driveway - township grade) there was a very light amount of snow nothing crazy that would've caused this. My driveway is not a hill or harsh slopping at all. I'm concerned for not only my safety and of course for my car, but what if that rolled further?. . . What if it hit someone walking their dog. . Or another vehicle passing by?.
