1 Engine Failure problem of the 2016 Jeep Compass

Failure Date: 09/26/2020

I was driving up a mountain highway doing about 55 miles an hour and my car completely stalled out. It's like my car just completely shut off but I still had power. I was able to drift off onto the side where it was confirmed my car had just shut off. I tried restarting it three times with no success. I waited a few minutes and tried to restart it and it started. I tested it and it was running so I tried to get back on the highway where it instantly shut off again this time the engine shut off again and I lost control of my steering and just rolled backwards. No warning lights came on. I had to have it towed back down the mountain. I would like to note I had sufficient gas and oil. My car gets serviced regularly and I've had no other issues with it until now. I would also like to note I have found other recalls on this exact make and model for engine failure! where the exact same thing happened to others.

3 Engine Failure problem of the 2015 Jeep Compass

Failure Date: 02/01/2018

I have taken this vehicle to be looked at at the Jeep dealership it was purchased from and at a local body shop. Both places claim there is nothing wrong with it, but every time we drive it on the highway and try to pick up speed, it stalls. There have been a few times when I am trying to pass someone and I begin to accelerate and my Jeep will not increase speed and stalls as well. I have to put my foot all the way down on the gas pedal to get it semi moving. I began to research Jeep Compass recalls and I found this - "Chrysler is recalling an estimated 522 vehicles, including the 2014 Jeep Compass and patriot, 2013 Dodge avenger and Chrysler 200 equipped with 2. 4-liter engines for a potential loss of engine oil pressure that could lead to an engine stall or engine failure. " I feel as if my Jeep has this same issue.
