2021 Jeep Compass Fuel system Problems

“My husband and I buy two jeeps. The reason I choose mine and he choose his, was fuel economy. But the Jeep Compass is not performing at all to the standards. I did contact customer service and they were very nice setting an appointment for the Compass to have a check and see what was wrong. Please find attached the results of the check-up. As you can see in the report from the mechanics, not even the car lies in regards to this situation clearly says that only does 13.5 miles per gallon. The advertising also attached says an average of 25 mpg 22 mpg on city and 31 mpg on highway. …”

“Gas pedal broke off while driving. It is made of plastic and the arm that attaches to the pedal snapped off. We towed to a shop to have repaired today. No warning lights or sounds. Thankfully I was going slow and not on a busy street. It could have been a bad outcome if I was merging into on coming traffic. My safety and others were at serious risk due to my car not being able to accelerate with no warning.”

“I purchased this vehicle in july 2021. I drive it 2-3 times per week. Each week I put in between $15-$20 in gas to bring the fuel level back up to the full mark. The jeeps does not have good fuel economy. It definitely does not reach 22-25mpg. I drive it about 30minutes each way; with a few stops in between at about 40mph. Also, the Jeep makes a lot of noise to climb steep hills. The noise almost sounds like when you put the car in a lower gear and the car is trying to rev up to the next gear.”

“When stopped at a stop sign (on a slight incline, if that could be a factor), the Compass suddenly lost power. No reaction from pressing the gas pedal at all. In Drive or in Reverse. The Check Engine light came on and the temperature gauge went all the way up. Putting it in Park and restarting cleared the Check Engine light and the temperature gauge was right back to normal. Almost like nothing had happened. Thankfully it was a small intersection with no other traffic. But could this happen on the freeway?”
