NHTSA complaint #10402511, filed 2011-05, 15 miles“Took car to my mechanic for an oil change. After putting car on the lift he usually does an inspection, brakes, exhaust, tires , steering , etc.when checking for play on the front wheels he notice a very dangerous play on both front wheels, more severe on the right side due to failing ball joints. Car is a 2007 Jeep compass with 60,000 miles.”
NHTSA complaint #10352443, filed 2010-08, 60,000 miles“My new Jeep compass has a $120 optional full size spare. The car has 18 tires on the ground. The spare is a 17 tire. A couple of weeks ago I had a flat when I came out of work at 10:30pm in snow\ice storm and had aaa come and change it. Due to poor road conditions I had to have the 4wd engaged all the way home[33miles]. The esp system continually applies the brake on the smaller tire since the system senses it is spinning faster. I think this is hazardous to vehicle control on slippery road conditions. I believe this vehicle should be equipped with an 18 spare.”
