Description of the problem	I have a 2012 jeep compass sport, since july 2013 i have been having sputtering, surging, acceleration issues. I have taken to dealer over 3 times it is in dealer currently. They have put a tracker on to find issue and still nothing. When i try to accelerate and it gets bogged down and does not want to go any further this is a concern. Especially when i am entering highway and cannot get past 59mph with the car. It feels like i am in a windtunnel the low acceleration is insane. Sometimes it feels like it does not want to shift. Sometimes it takes 4-10 minutes just to get to 60 mph. I have to stay on the gas hard just to get it to go anywhere most of the time. I have had in dealer multiple times and they just say well we are not sure. Two weeks ago i was getting on highway and my car just stayed at 59 mph and 1. 5 rpms. And would go no further it did this for 4 + miles on highway. I had horns honking at me and i was just waiting to get pulled over for going to slow. Sounds and feels like a transmission issue. I understand its a 4 cylinder. But it drove great and wonderfully smooth the first year, then a weird idle started to occur randomly, then a little surge when leaving stop signs/lights, it squeaks and creaks when making turns and creaks loudly going over bumps. I want someone to figure out what is going on with this. Chrysler seems to be ignoring every complaint and call i have made. I have contact jeep via email at least 3 times. No answers at all. Someone help me figure this issue out. I just want a safe vehicle that does not want to stall at every take off from a stop.
