2018 Jeep Compass Forward collision avoidance Problems

“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”

“Ever since I have owned this vehicle from march 2018 when driving (in motion) my emergency brake will come on and shut me down, I have had enough! Yesterday 5/4/2021 I was almost hit by a semi because of this. Jeep has not acknowledged this issue. Car has been brought in to dealer multiple times but I keep being told they cannot recreate the issue ( as it is sparatic).”

“1) 10/29/2020 I was driving on the highway with the cruse control on when the car made a loud thump, jumped out cruse control, shut off, check engine light came on. After sitting for a bit, car started but would not go over 25 mpr back to town. At the signal light, when stopped, the car started to go in reverse. Was able to stop it again, and got it to dealership. They said it needed a computer update. 2) 12/06/2020 1 month later, driving on the highway home from work at night, car did it again, check engine light came on. I was able to get the car to the side of the road. …”

“On n/b i5 between albany and salem oregon, traveling with the cruise control set at 73mph, the vehicle began abruptly braking on it's own. In a matter of seconds the vehicle went from 73mph to approximately 45mph, and hard/fast enough to lock the seat belt. The vehicle was then pulled off the highway, turned back on/off again, and driven to the destination without issues. Luckily the incident happened at about 430am and there was no traffic. Had there been traffic a collision would've been imminent and unavoidable.”

“I was driving up a hill and coming to a light. Another car was asking the turn at the light. I let off the gas to slow the car down and there was no way I was going to hit the car turning. The Automatic Emergency Braking engaged, slamming on the brakes, causing an abrupt stop in traffic. I was almost hit from behind because this system took over my car and did not allow me the driver to co trol the car.”
