Description of the problem	My 2016 jeep compass has stalled out twice within approximately a 7-week period. Once in a parking lot (2/8/2017) and today (3/29/2017) a stall-out occurred in traffic. Today, i was stopped on the highway to make a left-hand turn. Traffic was backed-up, so when it began to move, i moved my foot from the brake to the gas pedal to make the turn, and the jeep stalled. I put the jeep in neutral, and it immediately started. However, this was in heavy traffic. Between the stall-outs, the vehicle will "jerk" periodically, especially after slowing down and then having to accelerate. These hard "jerks" have become more frequent and are occurring on a daily basis. Both issues appear to occur when speed is lower and/or have to decelerate or accelerate because of traffic. Also, if the vehicle has sat overnight or an extended period of time. No lights appear on the dashboard during these "jerks" or stall-outs. Today will make the 4th time within the seven-week period i will have the vehicle back at the dealership's service department. I bought the vehicle new and have had it less than one year. It has approximately 11,500 miles on it.
