2011 Jeep COMPASS Power Train Problems, Complaints and Defects

Issue ID	1174558
Internal NHTSA #	10705074
Manufacurer	Chrysler (FCA US LLC)
Brand	JEEP
Model	COMPASS
Model Year	2011
File date	17/12/14
Component	POWER TRAIN
Product type code	VEHICLE
Description of the problem	Vehicle dash red lightning and stability control lights turned on with warning chime upon braking at the traffic light on the freeway off ramp while exiting interstate 10. This was accompanied with rough engine idle and lack of power for accelerating. Turning the engine off for a minute and restarting seems to clear these warning lights and vehicle operates normally. Vehicle was towed to nearest chrysler service center with diagnostics completed and the mass flow sensor replaced. Issue occurred again the following week. I drove the vehicle to the same chrysler service center without shutting off the engine so that the service technician could read the error codes and observe/document the warning lights lit in the dash. A third visit to the same service center resulted in the replacement of the powertrain control module which was covered under extended warranty. Issue occurred again within two weeks after the most recent service visit. I had mentioned to the service advisor that i had one incident prior to the initial event for this issue of braking hard which most likely engaged the abs-anti-lock braking system. The service advisor did not seem to believe there might be a connection between this incident and this issue. This issue occurs several times each week and only upon stopping after exiting the freeway. Vehicle operates normally during street driving with no problems. When this issue does occur, pulling into a nearby gas station and shutting off the engine seems to reset everything with the vehicle operating normally after restarting the engine. I have been dealing with this unresolved issue with chrysler for approximately 4 months.
