I PURCHASED A 2020 JEEP COMPASS TRAILHAWK WITH THE 2.4 TIGER SHARK ENGINE ON 2/24/20. WHILE ON MY WAY TO SIGN PAPERS, I SAW A FRIEND WITH A 2018 MODEL LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP. WHEN I INFORMED HIM THAT I WAS PICKING UP THE SAME CAR HE TOLD ME TO "WATCH MY OIL". HE HAD HIS SHUT DOWN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITHOUT WARNING DUE TO LOW OIL. HIS WAS USING A QUART IN UNDER 1K MILES. THE DEALERSHIP ENDED UP REPLACING THE ENGINE BUT THE SAME OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE REMAINED. WHEN I ASKED ABOUT THE ISSUE BEFORE SIGNING PAPERS, THE SALESMAN CHECKED WITH SERVICE & WAS TOLD THAT THEY HAD TAKEN CARE OF THE ISSUE. THEY DID NOT. I HAD MY OIL CHANGED AT 830 MILES (I DON'T DRIVE A LOT) AND IT WAS 1 QUART LOW. IT HAS COME TO MY ATTENTION THAT A RECALL HAD BEEN ISSUED FOR MODEL YEAR 2018 BUT NOT 2020. IT IS THE SAME ENGINE AND SAME ISSUE. IT IS A SOFTWARE UPDATE FOR EXCESSIVE OIL CONSUMPTION. WHY NOT 2020?
Corrective Action:
I PURCHASED A 2020 JEEP COMPASS TRAILHAWK WITH THE 2.4 TIGER SHARK ENGINE ON 2/24/20. WHILE ON MY WAY TO SIGN PAPERS, I SAW A FRIEND WITH A 2018 MODEL LEAVING THE DEALERSHIP. WHEN I INFORMED HIM THAT I WAS PICKING UP THE SAME CAR HE TOLD ME TO "WATCH MY OIL". HE HAD HIS SHUT DOWN DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD WITHOUT WARNING DUE TO LOW OIL. HIS WAS USING A QUART IN UNDER 1K MILES. THE DEALERSHIP ENDED UP REPLACING THE ENGINE BUT THE SAME OIL CONSUMPTION ISSUE REMAINED.

ELECTRICAL SYSTEM
Potential Consequences:
DRIVING DOWN THE ROAD, IN NEIGHBORHOODS, INTERSTATE, ETC - RANDOM TIMES THE VEHICLE TRANSMISSION WILL OVERHEAT UP TO 295 DEGREES, AND CAUSE THE VEHICLE TO STALL ENGINE WISE. ALL POWER IS LOST TO THE GAS PEDAL AND I'M NOT ABLE TO ACCELERATE. SOMETIMES THE ELECTRICAL WILL SHUTTER, LIGHTS WILL DIM. ANOTHER TIME VEHICLE WAS COMPLETELY IMMOBILIZED AND ALL POWER WAS LOST. THE OVERHEATING AND STALLING HAS HAPPENED 4/5 TIMES NOW - AND ALL JEEP CAN TELL ME IS THEY CAN'T REPLICATE THE ISSUE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT COMES ON, SERVICE TRANSMISSION MESSAGE, AND OVERHEAT WARNING COMES ON AS WELL. I'VE SHOWN THEM PICTURES OF THE OVERHEATING TEMPERATURE AS WELL AS ERROR MESSAGES. THEY (JEEP SERVICE) HAS TOLD ME WHEN THEY HOOK IT UP TO THEIR MACHINE IN SERVICE, IT TELLS THEM NOTHING - SO THEY CLAIM THEY DON'T KNOW HOW TO FIX IT OR WHAT CAUSES IT. THIS CAR IS A DEATH TRAP WAITING TO HAPPEN. I DO NOT FEEL SAFE DRIVING THIS CAR. MY CAR HAS BEEN "IN SERVICE" FOR 4 WEEKS NOW WITH NO RESOLUTION IN SIGHT, AND I'M BEING TOLD SINCE THE ISSUE CAN'T BE DUPLICATED IT'S NOT A WARRANTY ISSUE AND THAT I HAVE TO PAY FOR THE LOANER I WAS GIVEN. I WAS TOLD BY THE SERVICE ADVISOR THAT THEY COULDN'T GET THE CAR TEMPERATURE OVER 200 DEGREES, AND THAT THEY CANNOT DRIVE THE VEHICLE OVER 65MPH PER THEIR INSURANCE POLICIES. SO, I TOLD THEM I WOULD DRIVE THE CAR FOR 20 MINS, AND BRING IT BACK TO THEM OVER 200 DEGREES. I CAME BACK IN 25 MINS, AND GAVE THEM THE CAR AT 230 DEGREES. THE SERVICE ADVISOR TOOK THE CAR IMMEDIATELY BACK TO THE SHOP TO BE HOOKED UP TO THEIR "MACHINE" AND SAID HE RECEIVED NO ERROR MESSAGE, EVEN THOUGH THE MECHANIC SAYS THE CAR SHOULD NEVER GO OVER 200 DEGREES. THE VEHICLE TRANSMISSION TEMPERATURE RUNS OVER 200 DEGREES DAILY.

WHEN AC IS LEFT IN THE ON POSITION AND THE VEHICLE IS TURNED ON THERE IS AN AUDIBLE SQUEAK NOISE THAT COMES FROM THE PASSENGER SIDE OF THE ENGINE, THIS ALSO OCCURS WHEN THE STOP START SYSTEM ENGAGES AT STOP LIGHTS AND STOP SIGNS. THIS SQUEAK SOUNDS MUCH LIKE A BELT SLIPPING OR A PULLEY TENSIONER NEEDING TO BE LUBERCATED. THIS ISSUE OCCURS CONSISTENTLY REGARDLESS OF AMBIENT TEMPS OR CAR TEMPS. THIS SQUEAK ALSO HAPPENS WHEN THE AC IS RUNNING AND YOU ACCELERATE QUICKLY FROM A DEAD STOP, AT AROUND 3,000 RPMS YOU CAN HEAR THE SQUEAK.
