The automatic emergency braking / collision avoidance system engages randomly when there is no risk of collision and often times with no cars or obstacles in sight. For example, when driving on an open interstate highway. Without any apparent reason, the collision avoidance system alerts of an imminent collision and the automatic emergency braking system applies hard braking for a short interval or 1 to 2 seconds. This could result in a rear end collision if a following vehicle were unable to react in time to slow down. Additionally, the system will activate while navigating curves, applying hard braking pressure that could cause loss of control. In a little over a year of ownership, this issue has occurred approximately 12+ times. Changing the sensitivity of the system has not effect, as it still occurs even at the lowest sensitivity settings (shortest warning interval applied in vehicle settings).

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.

Collision warning system has malfunctioned more than 3 times and has been brought into the dealer. My vehicle is equipped with collision warning and active braking. Typically when the collision warning occurs if I do not manually hit the brakes immediately it will brake the car for me. The first 2 times it occurred in a residential area at low speeds with nothing in front of me. The system flashed the brake warning when there was absolutely nothing in front of me. In both of these instances I was lucky that there was no car following behind. The dealer was not able to replicate the issue or find an error with the system. The 3rd and most recent time it occurred on the highway at a speed of around 65mph. During this occurrence there was no braking system warning on my dash the car system slowed rapidly and almost entirely on the freeway out of nowhere with no cars immediately in front of my vehicle. During this instance there was a car directly behind me and they had to swerve into the shoulder to avoid rear ending me after my car slowed to a speed of nearly 30 mph on the freeway. This put not only my safety at risk but the car behind me as well as we both would have been involved in an accident if the shoulder had not been next to the lane we were in. I brought my vehicle in again and they again were not able to duplicate or find any issues with the system.

I purchased a 2023 Jeep Compass at the end of last year and have had issues while driving on the highway (with no cars in front or to the side of me) with the forward collision warning system going off and applying hard pressure on the brakes. Most recently, when driving on the highway the incident happened again (no cars in front or on the side of me), and nearly caused the driver behind me to run into my vehicle at 50+ mph. They had to swerve around me into another lane to avoid a collision. I have taken the vehicle to the Jeep dealership, and all they have been able to say is that they "cannot replicate the issue" and therefore have found no problems with the car.

The whole infotainment center. I was driving no one around me & the forward collision went off stopped dead red flashin lights on and beeping. I almost got rear ended. Took it to dealer they said they couldnt help because it didnt happen to them. . It does it sporadicly. . . It happened again on the nys thruway. Again lights etc. This time it said take to dealer on screen. . Too bad I didnt take a pic of screen. I went shopping, came from store car wouldnt open. . I had to remote start it. No doors or trunk would open. . I went into my garage, opened door and the alarm went off. I know you said there was no recall on this car but there was. I took to dealer near me and they said they fixed the problem. . . It was on the infotainment ctr. I am afraid to drive it because I dont want to be in a accident. I bought new in 22 has 6200 miles on it. . This shd'nt be plz do something. . . Before something awful happens. . . Also I cant still make a phone call from car. This has been happening since the beginning of 2024. . .

The forward collison icon is on, o my dash. I get a screen message the service is not working, then another to say the signal is lost. I cannot reprogram/reconnect the service in uconnect. Makes no difference for icon whether engine is running or not. This started in November 2023. The dealer is saying sensor needs replaced. Which sensor? he indicated locations of several sensors. Dealer also says front bumper and grill and something under hood needs removed to replace sensor. Takes 5 hours to replace. Procedure seems very invasive. Reading on Jeep forums on same topic does not mention this procedure and time. Saying part taken out, cleaned or replaced. My 2023 Jeep Compass latitude has 2580 miles as of today. Ridiculous that this is happening so soon or at all. Please send me info and reply to 1957pjordan@gmail. Com.

Vehciel frequently jurks will driving in low speed ; this issue is sinec I bought the car new. Front collision ?? light comes off automatically and I have to reset it manually. Also the aeb light came off for no reason.

While driving, my dash went out completely. I can’t see how fast I’m going, or any information concerning my car.

My 2022 Jeep Compass trailhawk, pedestrian warn and braking shuts it's self off every day. As does my front collision warning and braking and I have to keep turning it back on. Since I only don't always notice the warning light on the dash this is really bad. Yesterday while on a 250 mile trip. All of it stopped working after I stopped for gas for over 150 miles of my trip as did the cruise control and and lane departure system and steering assist. Thankfully I have only drive the keep 2200 miles and am not used to relying critical safety features.

The digital display that appears dim during daylight and full sun, rendering the fuel gauge, cruise control, and safety features useless during the day.

1-)I was driving 30 mph and the car stoped 2-) the motor oil consuming very fast 2000 m 3-) the backup cámara is not working.

I have two issues with my vehicle. The first is the lighting on the instrument panel. As of February 7, 2023, the center display in my vehicle appears to be stuck in night mode, resulting in an inability to see the fuel gauge or warning lights during daylight hours. I have taken it to my dealer to report the issue, and they said that is a known issue with 2022 Jeep Compasses but they are not aware of how to fix it. The service technician agreed that it would be hard to deal with and dangerous to drive. I have hence found the recall information on the on the NHTSA site, but when I enter my VIN number, it says there is no recall for my vehicle. The second issue is that the forward collision warning light is constantly on. When I go into the vehicle settings, it sometimes shows that the forward collision system is on, but the warning light is on, so it's unclear to me whether the system is on or not, which is also not a safe situation. I noticed the issue intermittently in 2022 and reported it to my dealer in February of 2023 but they were not able to fix it.

Forward collision sensor kept turning itself off, now my vehicle is telling me to service my headlights, 4wd, airbags and other sensors. Vehicle has also turned off while driving and deployed the aeb when driving. Have taken it to the dealership twice. Dealer contacted the manufacture which they were unable to determine the issue.

Over the past several months vehicle has been repaired four separate times by dealership and issue keeps recurring. Forward collision sensor, blind spot indicator, and active lane assistance intermittently malfunction creating unsafe driving situations that have almost caused several major accidents involving multiple vehicles. Examples of near misses of collisions include forward collision activating incorrectly when there aren't vehicles or objects in front of vehicle when turning through intersections and brakes are applied stopping vehicle from safely clearing intersection from oncoming traffic creating a potential collision from on coming traffic when unable to accelerate to avoid impact. Other times forward collision sensor has malfunctioned by activating during highway driving when it activated and applied brakes without reason causing vehicle to impede flow of traffic and abruptly stopping vehicle causing vehicles from behind to slam on their brakes and swerve into on comming traffic to prevent rear-end collision. Sensors randomly display on dash indicating malfunction and repair needed. During repair service at dealership they follow manufacturers recommendations and are unable to replicate malfunction during test drive so vehicle is returned. Within a week sensors intermittently continue to malfunction with no solution creating more potential traffic safety issues.

Every week of every month since purchasing this car, the electrical system more specifically the forward crash warning system which controls steering and brakes has failed. The system is continually turning off and it has been for repairs where they have replaced the sensors and cameras. No resolution has been made and it’s been now sitting at the dealership since September 1. I’m making payments on a car that can’t be driven. Furthermore every loaner Compass I’ve been given has had the exact same problem no sooner than driving off the lot. The bright light upon system failure is a distraction and the system not working right is a danger to life, limb and property.

There is a known issue with multiple 2022 Jeep Compass trims and models that, after long periods of driving (about an hour), the volume for all components utilizing sound becomes barely audible even at max volume. This affects all warning systems including blind spot, lane departure, etc. Upon turning off the vehicle for long periods of time (a few hours) the volume will return, but the issue will occur again if driving for an hour plus with short stops. Jeep has acknowledged the concern for over a year on Jeep forums and dealers are not helpful regarding the issue. Jeep states there will be an update to the uconnect system controlling audio functions in q4 2022. But Jeep has yet to release an update with 2 weeks left to go in the year despite knowing of the issue since end of 2021. I have additional concerns for safety as I have to disengage hands free audio during long drives due to the volume issue causing further distraction and complications on top of not having audio for any other integrated components (like gps, radio, etc. ) in addition to the safety features. .

Drove the vehicle I purchased and the lights on the dash board began to illuminate at 2500 miles. The u connect would go black, the dash lights air bags, emergency break, cruise control, etc would illuminate. The the car would shift out of gear automatically put in park flashing, and die in the middle of the freeway without warning, has happened like 3 times, now I am scared to drive it due to the safety of myself and others. I would have to restart the car and it would jerk, then be fine. The hood light would display hood open when it isn't and multiple other lights. Told the wiring harness is melted causing the problems. Lights that come on are advanced driver assistance systems (adas) check engine, transmission light, adaptive cruise control automatic emergency braking blind spot warning forward collision warning lane departure warning lane keeping assistance parking collision warning rear cross traffic warning.

8/30/2022 started the vehicle in the drive way foot still engaged on break and the vehicle accelerated forward with my foot on break and damaged my home and vehicle. 8/28/22 emergency break engaged on its own and we couldn’t move the vehicle it was turned off and restarted. 8/27/22 vehicle information screen was blank and black after starting the vehicle. . This happened at least three times.

Ever since I got my car back in about June of 2022 my safety features randomly turn on and off. For example. My active lane management symbol pops up randomly and sometimes it takes days for it to go off. Also I will always have my front collision warning off symbol on. I don’t manually turn it on and off. The car does it itself. Then I will sometimes get a pop up on the dashboard that says auto high beams are disabled. Service required. Also the orange lights on the side mirrors will sometimes stay on permanently and they don’t work. Then lastly sometimes the volume of the car randomly goes out. I have tried to have this serviced but Jeep refused. They made me take it to an auto body shop. The auto body shop thought it was a calibration issues of the safety sensors. So they tried a reset and realignment and that didn’t fix the issue. I feel like this issue is very unsafe because these safety features aren’t consistently on. They randomly go on and off. It will be nice if someone can help me with this concern. Thanks.

Shuts off at random and you have to go back into the system setting to turn back on. Has happened twice in the two weeks I have had the vehicle.

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.

Car would not stop, had no control before it hit the front of a house.

My forward collision warning system gave a false positive while I was driving down a busy road way. It activated the braking system when there were no vehicles in front of me for at least 40 yards and causing a vehicle that was following me to have to break and swerve to miss hitting me. I was on rt 15 in shamokin dam around 12:30 pm going 30 mph.

While driving about 60mph with no vehicle in front of me the car started dinging and the word brake! came up on the dash - again, no vehicle in front of me. I pushed the brake and it went away - took it to the dealership and they said the front camera was defective and replaced it. About a week later while driving about 45mph- no one in front of me - the same thing happened only this time the car slammed the brakes on on it's own and I almost got rear ended. Took it to the dealership but they cant' diagnose what's happening because there's no codes.
