Description of the problem	While traveling at about 25 mph with my 6 month old child in the vehicle, my car lost all power. The electronic throttle control indicator light came on (flashing) and so did the slide protection light. I was not able to accelerate beyond 20mph and when i came to a stop, the vehicle ran very rough like it was going to die. Luckily i puttered home and my child was safe. I had the vehicle towed to my local jeep dealership and after almost 5 days of trying to diagnose the problem, they informed me that the pcm needed replaced. They stated that they were "very confident" that this would fix the problem. Well today, they pcm was replaced and the problem persists. The chrysler/jeep dealership still cannot pinpoint the problem and it seems that this is a very common problem for the 2007 jeep compass. At the time of the incident, i was so scared as i alsmot got into a wreck when my vehicle lost power. My 6 month old child could have been hurt, or worse. Even if this car get fixed, i will be so apprehensive to drive anywhere in it with my child for fear that it will give out again. This seems to be a major problem with these cars and there should be a recall in my opinion. I do not feel that this is a repair that i, or other jeep compass owners, should be responsible for as 1. It is all too common and 2. The pcm/electrical system is not a component that wears out with mileage or usage. I believe the problem is due to faulty manufacturing on behalf of chrysler/jeep. While i wait to see if the car can be repaired, my repair bill just keeps growing. I have decided to take action for this issue and that is why i am filing this complaint. Please contact me at anytime with any help, support, or questions as i will be awaiting your response. Thank you. *tt
