“I bought my Jeep Compass in february. Last month when coming home my service parking brake system and service auto shut off system light both came on. When I got home I was like that's odd and called the dealer. They said they would look at if I brought it to them. I got ready for work, went to leave and my car wouldn't move. The parking brake was stuck on. I was furious and called the dealer and said they needed to have it towed and they refused. My mom ending up taking me to work, then the next day the lights mysteriously went off. Now yesterday both lights came on again. …”
