Since I bought the vehicle in Nov 2022 it has been in the repair shop 3 times for the check engine light being & the traction light being on. The Cam Shaft Sensor has been changed. At least twice. Place Codes have been reset
Ever since I bought this car the time on the dashboard has started changing on its own.Even after resetting it the time will slowly start changing on its own it still hasn-€™t been fixed since the service station doesn-€™t know what-€™s wrong and it-€™s too expensive for me to pay to have it taken apart. The airbag lights are constantly flashing go on and off as well as the tire pressure light even though the tire pressure is on the right setting. Most recently the belt under the hood has snapped this will be a second time, it has snapped with in a week of buying the new belt. I have had at least 3 recalls that I know of.Save your money and buy a Toyota.

I purchased my Jeep Compass January of 2020. Summer of 2020 my camshaft and crankshaft sensor went out completely shutting down my car, then January of 2021 my camshaft sensor went out again. This time I was driving on the highway and my cars check engine and traction control light switched on at the same time and slowed the speed of my car. I've replaced my camshaft 3 times already this month and I'm still getting the same code of P0365

I purchased my 2015 Jeep Compass sport January of 2020. Summer of 2020 I had to replace my camshaft sensor and my crankshaft sensor becuase my car completely shut down while I was at work and would not start. This year January of 2021 I was driving home on the highway going 65 mph while it was snowing heavily and my cars check engine light and traction control light came on at the same time and slowed the power of my car in the middle of the highway. I got my car read and the code came back as P0365. I have had the cam shaft sensor replaced 3 times already this month and I'm still experiencing the same problem. Again on my home from work on the highway at night my cars check engine light and traction control light came on and slowed down my car. I took the back roads home as I did the first time this happened and noticed that when I drove my car would randomly accelerate on its on and hesitate to pick up speed one I had stopped or pressed my foot to the gas pedal.
My electronic throttle body failed while driving. I noticed the flashing lightning symbol. This made my vehicle rapidly lose power so I had to stop vehicle immediately. I had vehicle towed to rick hendrick Jeep dealership which diagnosed and fixed issue. This was a very expensive repair.
I'm having an issue with my 2015 Jeep Compass (50,000 miles) not only that, the dealership has either no idea how to fix it or they don't want to. If I died, my son would be orphaned. The car is unsafe to drive. On several occasions with no warning my engine has shut down. My car doesn't turn off, it just won't drive anymore. The only light that comes on is the ESC activation/malfunction. I have to stop in the middle of the road. Turn the ignition off and turn it back on to get it to go. It has done this at least 10 times now. I nearly got into a accident trying to turn left, and again merging onto the freeway. The steering wheel becomes hard to turn and I can put the gas peddle all the way down, it does not accelerate. No rpms. I have brought it to the dealership to be scanned four times after it has happened. I've been a rental car for three days now. There are no codes in the computer. And they say they need to reproduce the issue in order to fix it. It's a safety issue and I am desperately trying to figure it out.
All engine lights came on, electrical components started going out, then car would not go over 10 miles per hour, even with the accelerator pushed all the way down, then the car completely shut down on the middle of a very heavily traffic road. Power steering, all electrical components and engine refused to work. Had to have the Compass towed to nearest dealer and problem was the entire computer system went out. 4 month old vehicle and the entire computer system fried. Took 6 days to get it replaced. Now two months later the exact same thing has happened again and the dealership doesn't seem to care. Says it's under warranty and will be fixed, but don't seem to understand the sever danger this defective vehicle puts my family and me in when we drive it without knowing when and where the computer system will blow again. What if I was pulling out of an intersection and the car shut down like this and my family gets hit by traffic. Something needs to be done!
