What owners report
THIS JEEP COMPASS WAS PURCHASED FOR OUR COLLEGE AGE DAUGHTER IN MARCH 2019, TODAY WHILE DRIVING, HER REAR DRIVER SIDE WHEEL MADE A LOUD NOISE THEN FELT LIKE IT 'DROPPED' AND UPON GETTING STOPPED, SHE DIDN'T WRECK THANK GOD, AS SHE WAS PULLING INTO OUR DRIVE. UPON INSPECTION IT WAS DISCOVERED THAT HER REAR CROSSMEMBER HAD RUSTED INTO. I SEARCHED AND FOUND THAT THERE HAD AT ONE TIME BEEN A RECALL ON THIS PARTICULAR PART DUE TO EXCESSIVE RUST FROM THE SALT BELT STATES. WE ARE IN KY BUT WHEN WE PURCHASED THE VEHICLE IT WAS TITLED IN MICHIGAN, WHICH IS MOST DEFINITELY IN THAT SALT BELT. I AM NOT SURE WHY THIS RECALL WAS NOT COMPLETED BY THE FORMER OWNER BUT I BELIEVE IT SHOULD BE CORRECTED NO MAT
TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2007 JEEP COMPASS 4X4. WHILE SERVICING HIS WIFE'S VEHICLE, THE CONTACT NOTICED LOTS OF RUST AND HOLES ON THE SUBFRAME. THE VEHICLE WAS NOT DIAGNOSED OR REPAIRED. THE MANUFACTURER AND DEALER WERE NOT CONTACTED. THE FAILURE MILEAGE WAS 75,000.
AFTER FILLING UP THE GAS TANK WITH FUEL, THE JEEP WILL BEGIN TO STUTTER AND THE ENGINE WILL DIE. SOMETIMES IT HAPPENS IMMEDIATELY BUT OTHER TIMES IT TAKES A FEW MINUTES AND WILL HAPPEN WHILE IN TRAFFIC. AFTER THE INTIAL STUTTERING AND DYING, THE CAR RUNS FINE AFTER RESTARTING BUT THIS HAPPENS WITH EVERY FUEL FILL-UP.
I HAVE A 2007 JEEP COMPASS 4WD. THE REAR SUBFRAME ON THE DRIVERSIDE IS ROTTEN OUT AND MAKING THE DRIVER SIDE REAR WHEEL BEND. I HAVE A 4 YEAR THAT GOES IN MY CAR, AND I HAVE LOOKED ONLINE. JEEP WAS MADE AWARE OF THE RUST ROT, AND CHOOSE NOT TO DO ANYTHING
CAR STALLS A FEW TIMES AFTER FILLING UP GAS TANK. THEN IT RUNS FINE. HAPPENS RIGHT AFTER YOU LEAVE GAS STATION, IN MOTION OR AT IDLE .
