Automatic Emergency Braking problems of the 2022 Jeep Compass

On 8/26/25 I got the 88a recall fixed on this Jeep at duluth Dodge in duluth mn . . I left dealership and my ac stopped working brought it back they fixed and it and got it working now on 8/30/25 I’m at a stop light and my Jeep stalls, it went to go start for me to drive and it died. The emergency brake came on and I couldn’t get it off the state trooper actually helped me get it off. Had to get my vehicle towed to my house. All lights come on but it says “blind spot alert temporarily unavailable “ check engine light is on and my Jeep will not start. I was stranded on a busy road at a stop light with my child in the car . I know this is due to the recall cause my Jeep ran just fine and did not have any issues until this recall was “fixed”. This recall actually has my Jeep not working at all. All failure lights came on after my Jeep stalled and wouldn’t turn back on. From what I’m reading this is exactly what happened to other people . Please fix this.

Emergency brake locking when vehicle is in drive mode. Also unable to drive from a stopped position except very slowly which can cause a rear end collision.

The only way to adjust the advanced driver assistance systems (adsa) in my 2022 Compass is via a defective radio that continually resets as per mopar case number s238a000037 from August 2023. According to the bulletin this was supposed to have been fixed via a software update in the 4th quarter of 2023. Repeated calls to the mopar wave 800-334-9200 only to be disconnected as soon as I give them the case number 4 times today.

Bought my vehicle new at 29 miles. At 4k miles my auto braking light would come in as off. Every 2k it would turn itself off, even though I want the feature on. Even though it says it's off there will be times the warning will alert me to brake for no reason and someone's brake for no reason. I've gone to the dealer multiple times and they wouldn't find a code or a reason why it was doing that, and brush it off like nothing. Every 2k miles out would turn off. Now after hitting over 40k miles I started to experience it more often where it would tell me brake. Now something at 49k miles. When I'm on a slight hill or high incline when my vehicle turns off and tries to start it will roll back and not move forward even when I apply the gas like the engine is still off. When that happens the service hill holder, and then multiple other safety features have warnings for, service electronic stability control, drive mode unavailable, active lane management unavailable service required, auto emergency braking unavailable service required, stop/start unavailable service start/stop system. I told the dealer that had my car for a month at 49k miles about the hill holder and what my vehicle did. No results and still have this issue. When you turn off the vehicle the service lights disappear and can't be read. This happens almost every day now. I replaced my aux battery after it seems to happen when my vehicle is off and struggled to turn back on at times and it still does it. I'm afraid that I'm going to get into an accident when people see I took my foot off the brake and will get rear ended or if my vehicle is going to brake itself and cause an accident or the other safely issue fail. The stability control can be an issue and drive mode I can't turn off or on those features when those notifications pop up. What can happen, will it eventually do this on a freeway and cause a major accident or when I'm through an intersection. . 5 different dealers and have no answer. . . Help.

Vehicle shut off at stop light , parking break engaged and disengaged , drive shift was flashing , dash was flashing. I shut the vehicle off twice because it happened twice in the same moment until the third time it allowed me to drive.

Car started beeping and information center was flashing and drive indicator was flashing . At another time car shifted in reverse and would not move. Humming sound coming from front right wheel at 40mph and would not go away until until 60mph. Was told it was the all wheel drive system.

Since the last over-the -air (ota) software update, numerous systems have malfunctioned and then fixed themselves. The exception is the dashboard lighting problem to be addressed by NHTSA recall # 23v-576, fca recall # 88a which also started with the latest update, is continuous, not intermittent. I feel the most serious malfunction is when a turn signal will not turn off, irregardless of manual control/lever use. Overall, my main question / complaint is since all these problems were installed by the ota update, why can't the fixes also be installed ota instead of having going to the dealership? thank you.

This vehicle randomly shuts off. It is usually when I’m going at a slow speed or applying the break. It cuts off and jerks for a second and then I put the vehicle in park cut it off and restart it and it works normal.

Upon start up of my vehicle I noticed my center display for speed, etc had turned itself to spanish, but my radio was still in english. My forward collision warning, lane keep assist, auto emergency braking, and front collision avoidance had all turned themselves off, and my auto park brake had turned itself on. After contacting a dealer they stated they had several complaints and to just turn them back on/off. Having these safety features turn themselves off can provide a fall sense of safety and cause accidents.

My instrument cluster has went dark. It stays in dark mode during the day. I am unable to visually see my speed while I’m driving. My aeb system is also having issues. I have tried to remedy this at the dealership, but they say there is no resolution.

Since new collision avoidance/other safety features will just shut off was in for service several times to correct problem finally Jeep got involved for latest software update 4 days later system failed again set up another appt with Jeep/dealer unfortanetley vehicle was involved in collision with school bus prior to appointment. I could sometimes be able to turn system back on thru touch screen and sometimes would not allow function to be reset I had reset feature after last failure but it failed again and as previous just randomly while traveling had system been functioning as intended it would have avoided this collision.

Please see uploaded documents for a personal account of all issues on the 2022 Jeep Compass. Yes, it is available for inspection. No warning indications prior to incidents. I went to dealership & they are aware of issues with the mechanical & electrical system, however they did not offer any resolution. No, the vehicle has not been inspected by the manufacturer or anyone else. The issues began within a few days of being bought on 9/12/22. The incidents are random, ongoing, and increasing. No, the issues have not been reproduced or confirmed by anyone. I live 2 hrs from the dealership, however I have made numerous trips to them & on 1/24/23 did make them aware of the problems in writing. I have tried returning the vehicle on several occasions. No one would work with me, return phone calls or emails. They did agreed to a trade but with a $10,000 charge for trading this vehicle in for another one just like it but cheaper cash price of $32,595. That was 9/22/2022, 10 days after signing the contract. However I have been calling & email the salesman & business manager from day one. I am convinced they sold me a lemon & are preditory lenders considering how they have treated me. The salesman tore the window sticker off the Jeep, waded it up & threw it away the night it was bough. He also did not give me my trade in license plate, or my extra key fob to the new vehicle. I have since gotten the key fob on a trip there. The license plate is gone. I have called & went by numerous times with no one willing to work with me concerning the Jeep on all situations. I have since learn base msrp is $26,525. My contract was written for $38,864 in total. Cash price was $35,305. They also financed a down payment through a credit card company when told I had no down payment of $3,000, which is a separate payment. I am not sure this is where I complain about preditory lending but I thought it wouldn't hurt to share my situation considering the issues I am having with the physical vehicle.

Screens in vehicle have dimmed and are unable to brighten. It’s impossible to see while driving during the day. I have run out of gas on the highway, and almost caused an accident. My vehicle also automatically breaks and sounds an alarm as if I have had a collision, and almost caused another accident from being rear ended. Thankfully, one of the issues has been resolved and the dealership is fixing it (although my VIN number was not included in the recall at this time). I’ve developed a fear of driving on the highway now so be cautious of purchasing until all these issues have been resolved.

The aeb and lane departure keeps turning off and saying needs service. As soon as you kill car and start it back up again it will allow you to turn the feature back on. It also turns off at times.

2 issues 1 - false positive aeb while driving with no obstacles around on a rural road (speed and mileage below) 2 - backup camera delays, sometimes well into a reverse drive.

The vehicle kept telling me that stop start is unavailable service stop start then there would be a battery on the left side on dashboard showing. Then it would say stop safety vehicle will shut off soon. Called both dealerships by my house to see if I can get the vehicle serviced one of the advisers told me the vehicle would not shut down that it would be okay to drive out of town. Brought my Jeep into another dealership and their adviser told me the same thing. Last night 12/25 I was able to pull my car into a neighborhood before my vehicle completely shutdown I had it towed to my house.

I have 3 issues with my vehicle: 1. Whenever I am in my vehicle for more than 20 minutes the radio starts to fade out and eventually all sound on the vehicle is muted. This happens every time I drive the vehicle for more than 20 minutes an can only be resolved by shutting off the vehicle for an extended period. 2. I was driving on the highway at 65 mph when my car suddenly started braking and nearly caused a rear end collision with the vehicle behind. I tried to continue pressing the accelerator, but the car was not advancing. Fortunately the vehicle did not come to a full stop and I was able to recover. 3. Just the other day my vehicle started to display a light on the dashboard that has warned me that the forward collision warning system is now off. None of the above issues have yet to be inspected by the dealership. I have an appointment on February 3rd. It was very difficult to find a dealership with availability. My vehicle is available for inspection upon request. All these problems appeared within the first 5-days of owning the vehicle.

As the vehicle is driven for longer periods of time (over 45 minutes), the instrument panel and control system for the car freezes and slowly fades out on the audio. Once the audio is faded completely it can no longer play the radio, calls or any alerts. The issue continues with freezing the instrument panel and the lane assist, collision warning and pedestrian sensors stop working. This becomes a safety issue as you can no longer use the hands-free device as your car auto-connects via blue tooth. It is also a major issue as the sensors on the vehicle are not dependable for operation. This happens every time you operate the vehicle for longer periods of time.

Does not correct car from departing lane. Also intermittently turns automatic braking of. Intermittently brakes when no hazard. Loses sound for radio and gps on long trips.

Greetings, there is day time dash dimming issues, and unable to adjust manually. Anti collision feature randomly turns off while driving. Auto on and off feature for fuel economy has not worked in 14 months. Finally, a hard gear jerking event occurs when traveling at slow speed that feels like being rear ended by another vehicle. Not feeling safe with this Jeep. Dealer had the vehicle for week to tell me these are known issues with no remedy available. Please help!.

This vehicle has two dangerous issues: 1) it brakes unexpectedly and for no reason during drive. This has happened to me at least 3 times while driving on the freeway without any cars close in front or around me. Bells and whistles just go off all of a sudden and vehicle brakes for no legitimate reason, throwing me forward. 2) this vehicle stalls while driving. This has happened to me 6 times. Engine just falls dead while in drive. I have to put it in park and restart the engine. This could get me killed.

The emergency braking l, collision warning automatically shut off by itself while driving. Occurred 7/12 and 7/20 I have reported this before. Took to the dealer and they could not replicate. This is a huge safety issue! I am taking it to the dealer again on 7/22/2022 at 730 am. Dealer motorworld Chrysler Dodge Jeep ram 150 motorworld dr wilkes-barre, pennsylvania 18702 (570) 301-6107.

This is how multiple times this has occurred and the second time I’m reporting this. I entered my vehicle and started the engine. I needed to use gps to reach my destination, so I was sitting in park while getting everything the address inputted. For no apparent reason I start getting messages: aeb limited functionality service required, I do not have the active lane management functionality either, service headlights, service automatic window wipers etc. I eventually can get these settings to go away by manually turning them on but not this time.

The contact owns a 2022 Jeep Compass trailhawk. The contact stated that the automatic braking system failed to turn off. While driving at 65 mph on the highway, a plastic bag flew across the vehicle, and the vehicle locked up and abruptly stopped. There were no warning lights illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer, who was unable to determine the failure. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was contacted, who opened a case, but no additional assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 21.

This is the third time this has happened to me. The second time I took it to the dealership for inspection and was told they could not locate any issues. The first time it happened, I had started my vehicle, and it was running for around 3-4 minutes while I got my child settled in the backseat. By the time I made it back to the drivers seat, I heard noises alerting me to issues. Multiple lights showed up on the dash, and when I went into the menu it would tell me system failure, and service required. Prior to this, there weren't any indicators as to some sort of failure was going to happen. After a few days I was able to manually reset the notifications.

The vehicles emergency brake engages itself while the vehicle is in drive. I’ve reported this to my dealership, they say they’ve never heard of this issue. I’ve reported the issue twice. This is an obvious safety issue because the vehicle is randomly braking and coming to a complete stop while it is in drive. The brake signal comes on and there is no way to regain control of the vehicle unless you put the car in park and turn it off and on again. The emergency brake button also does not work during this time. This often happens when driving after a stop light. The vehicle begins to move and suddenly the brake engages itself, and the car stops this has almost gotten me rear ended on several occasions. I’m forced to throw on my hazards and rush to regain control of the vehicle . All the while holding up traffic, cars honking and trying to get past me. This issue was not confirmed to me by the dealer. They seem to act as if they haven’t heard of this issue. I’ve researched online and other Jeep brand owners are experiencing the same exact issue. My vehicle was purchased brand new and hadn’t been in any accidents before this problem began. It started the year I purchased and still happens till this day. I’ve tried to get to the bottom of the issue but I’ve been quoted $1000 to change both batteries without promise that this will resolve the issue. I don’t want to pay out of pocket for an indefinite resolution that the company should take care of because they sold the vehicle to me with this safety issue. I’ve looked for recalls that depict my exact issue for my make and model and I haven’t seen any. This needs to be investigated because many people bought their cars with this same safety hazard so why isn’t Jeep taking accountability!.
