2011 Jeep Compass Latitude has a CVT transmission that continually overheats when outside air temperature is high and driving long distances on the interstate. Light comes on and car will not accelerate making a very dangerous situation in heavy high speed traffic. This is the 4th time this has occurred and I have been to the dealership with it twice before and they cannot find the problem. In speaking with transmissions shops most if not all refuse to work on these transmissions and recommend replacement. Question is why replace with the same when you know it will also break down usually starting between 40,000 and 70,000 miles. Appears that Subaru recognized the problem in their 2011 vehicles with the same transmission and extended the warranty to allow their customers to seek relief if they already spent the money fixing or replacing the transmission. Jeep aka Chrysler Corporation needs to take a lesson in Customer Service! I was told by several transmission shops to let the car cool down and as soon as problem goes away sell the Car!!
