Check Engine Light On Problems of Jeep Compass - part 2

The auto start stop has malfunctioned so many times now I've lost count. I've had the Jeep for 6 months. It started the first week. The check engine light comes on and goes off and the start/stop issue light does the same. I've had it in and they just clear the error messages and send me on my way. Very frustrating! the engine has turned off completely and had difficulty coming back on multiple times at stop signs and stop lights!.

My oil pressure and check engine light kept turning off and on. I contacted the Jeep dealership in regards to the issue, and they advised me it was not dangerous. The problem continued so I attempted to transport my vehicle to my mechanic, and as I was transporting the vehicle I heard a loud "pop!" from under the hood. The car began to decelerate causing me to have to pull safely to the side of the road from three lanes over. The dash board proceeded to light up and a strange smell began to come through the vehicle. My associate and I got out of the vehicle to check under the hood and found that the vehicle was on fire. We quickly grabbed our belongs and moved a safe distance away from the vehicle. The vehicle was engulfed in flames within 15 minutes and remained on fire until the fire department arrived to extinguish it. The car was a total loss and Jeep has denied association with the incident.

The first time, the check engine light went off I drove to the dealership and it was checked and returned, 2 weeks later the light turned on and the vehicle was taken back to the dealership, some oil applied to the connectors and returned. Yesterday, the light went off again while driving at 50mph, the vehicle stopped abruptly, the steering wheel didn't move and the engine stopped. Upon trying to restart the ignition, it kept starting by itself over and over. Now you can't accel the vehicle while in drive. The right strut was replaced on Feb 2012 because it broke.

We bought our Jeep Compass in January 2007. Approx. Date for this problem is sept 2011. Our Jeep started acting like it was going to stall when stopped at a light or when in motion. At other times, it wouldn't start after multiple attempts. Most times it would start. One day it did not start at all and we decided to take it in to the dealership the next day. That morning, it started, but we still took it in. The engine light was on also. We told them we think its the battery because we had issues with that already (battery replaced in 2010 and again in, I think, 2011, something in the Jeep was draining the battery). Long beach CA dealership. I think they charged us a fee to hook it up to the computer, they could not find the problem, and said it was not the battery. They said if it happens again, to bring it back. Over the past year, the stalling increased and the Jeep was not starting correctly. Aug 1, 2012, approx. Mileage 104,000, we tried to start our Jeep, and it wouldn't start at all. We had it towed to biloxi ms dealership and we told them this had happened before. The engine light was on again and another light I cant remember what it was for. They hooked it up to their computer and it told them it was the fuel pump. They proceeded to start to replace it, but, before they did, they came to us and had us look at the connector switch for the fuel pump. It had melted, had burns on it, and had melted through the pump. Why this is not a safety recall is beyond me when I see others have this same problem! the mechanic said we were lucky this thing had not caught on fire while we were driving it!! and even more disturbing, the fuel pump is located under the backseat! what if we had our grandson with us and it caught fire, or even worse, exploded? anyone with a Jeep Compass with these problems should have their fuel pumps looked at immediately!.
