Defect Description:

FUEL/PROPULSION SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

Daughter was driving. Came to a stop sign, proceeded through after stopping and the the car's accelerator wouldn't work and the car stalled in the middle of the intersection. She had to turn if off and it started back up after a few "weird" sounds. Took it to a shop we trust, they checked it quickly and couldn't find a reason. Checked the battery:fine. Checked the oil: was low, told to return soon for oil. This incident was repeated the next day. She stopped driving it, dropped it off at the same shop. The shop inspected throughly, found to have no oil in the engine. Have been advised to add oil to this car every 1000-1500 miles to keep it safe.

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

Car is stopping while driving at highway speed (second time in a little over a month). Car was taken to Spartanburg dodge after first incident. They claimed it was due to unknown factor and then claimed it was low on oil, which was not true as there was no warning or low oil warning. this car belongs to my daughter and the dealerships think that women are not knowledgeable enough to know of the oil situation. On public forums, there are many sites telling of exact problem and the dealerships will not take responsibility for the situation.

Defect Description:

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

I have not had an incident related to this report. The 8.4" Uconnect screen in my Compass is beginning to delaminate. At this time, about 20% of the screen is affected and has been getting worse over the summer. I have been aware of this problem for almost 1 year, meaning it must have started last summer. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. I'm submitting this request because a handful of the safety features of my vehicle are controlled through this screen (forward collision, lane departure, blind spot, parking sensors) and severe delamination may render these settings unreachable. This has not happened to me, but other owners have reported "ghost touches" as the sensors begin to fail. This is an issue because the settings can be changed or turned off without the driver's knowledge, resulting in an unsafe driving condition. My local dealership has confirmed through visual inspection that the screen is delaminating. They were not interested in diagnosing the problem without payment. The manufacturer was not willing to work with me outside of the warranty period, and has documented my case.

Corrective Action:

I have not had an incident related to this report. The 8.4" Uconnect screen in my Compass is beginning to delaminate. At this time, about 20% of the screen is affected and has been getting worse over the summer. I have been aware of this problem for almost 1 year, meaning it must have started last summer. The vehicle is available for inspection upon request. I'm submitting this request because a handful of the safety features of my vehicle are controlled through this screen (forward collision, lane departure, blind spot, parking sensors) and severe delamination may render these settings unreachable. This has not happened to me, but other owners have reported "ghost touches" as the sensors begin to fail. This is an issue because the settings can be changed or turned off without the driver's knowledge, resulting in an unsafe driving condition. My local dealership has confirmed through visual inspection that the screen is delaminating. They were not interested in diagnosing the problem without payment. The manufacturer was not willing to work with me outside of the warranty period, and has documented my case.

Defect Description:

ENGINE

Potential Consequences:

My car uses too much oil and my car keeps shutting off after 3000 miles when I should be getting 5-6000 to an oil change. My engine literally ran out of oil in about 6 weeks and my mechanics stated that it must be a recall issue. I feel like this is a threat to engine safety.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM

Potential Consequences:

The Uconnect System on my 2018 Jeep Compass (19,995 miles) is failing/malfunctioning and the Stop/Start Technology has stopped working. Yes, it is available for inspection. After replacing the main battery, my UConnect system stopped functioning properly. It no longer receives a GPS signal rendering the navigation system useless along with the stolen vehicle assistance. Separate from that issue, the screen on my UConnect system is delaminating, which is a bubble that's formed underneath the outer layer. The delamination extends the entire width of the screen on top and covers the area where the time is displayed. This is causing the system to continually flash "Do you want to adjust your clock settings?" and makes a beeping sound every time it flashes. Just like when someone presses on the touch screen. Nothing stops it and it's very distracting. UConnect is the "brains" of the car and controls not only the time, but also navigation, phone, electronic power (heat) to seats & steering wheel, climate, backup camera, and SOS. The screen will continue to delaminate more and cause more system malfunctions and even greater distractions. I have not taken my car to a dealership to get an "official" diagnosis. However, after searching online, I've found that numerous other Chrysler, Jeep, Dodge & Fiat owners are having the same issues with satellite failure after new battery install and delaminating Uconnect screens causing distracting screen notifications. The only warning light displayed is for the Start/Stop malfunction.
