“I purchased vehicle in feb 2018 for my then 16 year old daughter. Last couple of refuels, vehicle will stall out after leaving gas station. She looses power, steering & braking ability when this occurs. Vehicle will start back up drive along a while then stall out again. This happens several times then will operate normally till next fill-up.”
NHTSA complaint #11151834, filed 2018-11, 136,800 miles“After filling up my 07 Jeep Compass not even as I was pulling out of the parking lot the Jeep started stuttering and shut off .. It happened multiple times until I got home. While accelerating it would act like it wanted to stall . And while coming to a shop it would cut off. I was almost hit because of this . And I had my disabled daughter in the car. I have read multiple complaints about this & something needs to be done .”
NHTSA complaint #11181638, filed 2019-02, 156,440 miles“Purchased a 2007 Jeep Compass 2nd hand and found rear subframe and suspension parts is severely rusted . The vehicle clunks and hopps with every bump in the road. If you run over the reflectors while changing lanes vehicle will abruptly jerk in the direction you are going. Took it to Jeep there was a recall for this problem that expired in 2017 I don't think there should be an expiration date for a safety hazard that thousands of jeeps and or dodges have they told me they cant help me.”
NHTSA complaint #11326485, filed 2020-05, 150,000 miles“Approximately 9 months ago the horn on my 2007 Jeep Compass began sounding at random. It was disconnected and in 2014 it was taken to the Jeep dealership (atlantic auto group, northfield nj). I was told it was the horn pad and they would order the part. A few days later I was told the part was on back order and would be in at the end of january. From there I was continuously told it was on back order until now june 12th 2015 when I was told there are over 30,000 on back order and estimated ship time in august 23rd 2015 (as per atlantic auto). …”
NHTSA complaint #10724939, filed 2015-06, 115,000 miles“I bought my 2007 Jeep Compass brand new. I never off-road and I try to drive cautiously avoiding pot holes. I was hearing this weird noise and brought it in to a dealership today. They told me I need to replace the lower control arm costing me several hundred dollars. After searching on the web and seeing all the similar complaints I am convinced this should be a recall. Jeep needs to do something this is not right. This is a repair that should not be needed on such new vehicles.”
