| Description of the problem | As a mother of three children, the youngest only being two years old, i do not feel safe driving my 2016 jeep compass. Every single time i drive the vehicle the motor randomly stalls out while driving several different times. My car is very well maintained and driven easily and even with the gas pedal under light load it stalls out leaving me immobile or the vehicle misfiring and jerking forward violently struggling to drive which puts my children and i in dangerous or potentially deadly situations. This happens all the time. This is due to a bad crankshaft position sensor and or bad wiring from the factory. When i type my vin number into the nhtsa website for recalls it says my vehicle has no active recalls. There are several other jeep compass |
