| Description of the problem | I own a 2011 jeep compass for 2 weeks when i stopped at a stop sign, stopped and took off. Once i took off the jeep engine just stopped. I couldn't tell it until i tried to turn and had no control! The dealership said the engine needed an update code, that they don't have yet for the 2. 4l engine. So now i have a car with less than 2600 miles on it in the shop that we can't drive. Why would they sell a car that shuts off for no reason and they know about it? I have 2 small children thank god they were not in the car with me. Now we are in a rental. Thanks jeep. *kb |
