2007 Jeep Compass 4X4 Steering Problems

“I had my vehicle in for regular maintenance and the mechanic informed me the front and rear subframe is rotten and have holes in them. He further stated this is not normal for a vehicle of this age and I should report the problem and call chrysler as this can cause serious problems.”

“Last year, 2010 I had to replace the tie rods in my 2007 Jeep COMPASS 4X4. It only had 36,000 miles at the time. Now I'm told the ball joints are bad. I can't drive my care because it throws me all over the road. A very definite safety problem, not to mention the money I'm shelling out for the repairs.”

“Takata recall every time I have to drive my 2007 Jeep compass I am scared for my safety and the safety of my children. I have had the whole control arm and tie rods replaced in my Jeep just a few months ago due to very loud squeeking in the rear end of the vehicle, it makes the sound when driving slow or fast, any tiny movement such as getting in and out of the vehicle while not running makes the loudest squeaking sound! Its like nails on a chalkboard! I already have to take it back in due to the same sound the fix lasted about 2 weeks! …”

“Problems after fueling: after filling my vehicle up, without fail, the engine stalls, shuts off, violently jerks and/or decreases speed and then returns to regular driving conditions. I have changed the gas cap, gas stations and octane levels, as well as the amount of gas consumed, all without any resolve. Although I never tip off the gas tank, I will fill the gas tank and I experience erratic behavior without fail. It does not matter if I sit at the gas pump or drive away immediately, the vehicle will enter a distressing routine of jolting, and turning off. …”

“Front end would shake when coasting at 40 MPH. Took the car in to the dealers with 44,179 miles and they told me I needed to replace frt lower control arms left outer tie and rt inner tie rod cause they were all worn out. So they replaced them all. All new parts and $1034.00.”
