2019 Jeep Compass Electrical System

Rear back up camera goes to blue screen randomly. Uconnect system frequently freezes and is unresponsive. It has in the past attempted to dial 911 and I couldn't cancel it . It did not go through because my phone is not connected but it is still an issue.

Touch Screen radio is selecting items on its own including altering vehicle settings and making phone calls.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that the U-Connect system touch screen had been engaging vehicle functions unintendedly. The contact stated that the system engaged the heating system, the braking mode system, and other unknown functions while driving. The message "Unable to Engage Service Brake Mode While Driving" was displayed. The dealer was notified of the failure, but the contact was unable to schedule a service appointment because the call was disconnected. The vehicle was not diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was provided. The failure mileage was approximately 106,000.

The Electric throttle body malfunctioned and as a result the vehicles battery completely died, the vehicle was reported not going over 45mph and the break pedal was not going down and not starting the vehicle. After vehicle was stated "it felt unsafe to drive", the problem was confirmed by a vehicle code scanner. Dashboard was lit up like a Christmas tree.

Batteries are constantly draining causing multiple failures with no warning such as hill assist, traction control, abs, steering, brake, 4 wheel drive and turn signal lights. I have had to replace both batteries every year since purchasing the vehicle. Date is happened is the most recent event. This happens yearly. The car will start violently shaking and loud clunking

The screen that shows the radio, backup camera, car play etc is 2/3 blank. It has been going out for over a month but now is just out all together. I did grow up in the era where you didn't have backup cameras however the way these new cars are made and all the blind spots, it makes it more difficult to backup without the assistance of the rear view camera. I saw on the national news last week that Jeeps 2020 and newer were recalled but I believe the recall should also include 2019. When I googled it, you tube says the entire screen needs to be replaced which can cost at least $500.

screen for climate control, radio, rearview Camara doesn't work

The vehicle intermittently has issues starting .. if the automatic start/Stop isn’t disengaged you get stuck at stop signs/ stop lights . I have repaired everything I can think of when it comes to this issue . I turned to the internet for more ideas/ootions … turns out there is sooooooo many more jeeps especially the compass that have the same issue … how can this not have a recall … my kid who is only 16 and just got his license almost got rear ended at an intersection because the car shut off and wouldn’t start … he had to wait over 10 minutes before it started again so he could move the car .. it has been to the garage many times and not one can pin point what the issue is .. I just get told it’s a jeep thing ! I’m afraid to shut my car off when I stop at the store or bank … if I know I’m going to be somewhere for a while I have to ask for a ride because I don’t know if my car will start … i have to try to start my car way before I need to , to give it time to “Reset” then it will start …

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while driving approximately 20-30 MPH, the vehicle went into anti-theft mode and stalled in the middle of the road. The ABS warning light and other unknown warning lights were illuminated. The contact was unable to pull to the side of the road. The vehicle was towed to a parking lot. The vehicle was then towed to the dealer, where the failure could not be duplicated, and the contact was informed that the battery was low.

The vehicle was towed to a second dealer, Preston Chrysler Jeep Dodge RAM of Wilmington (3807 Kirkwood Hwy, Wilmington, DE 19808), where both batteries were replaced, and the electrical system was reprogrammed. The vehicle was repaired; however, the failure recurred 12 days later. The contact was able to restart the vehicle after 10-15 minutes, and the contact drove to the residence. The vehicle was taken to a third dealer, Ourisman Chrysler Dodge Jeep Ram of Baltimore (124 North Point Blvd, Baltimore, MD 21224), where it was diagnosed and determined that the alternator needed to be replaced.

High Coolant temperature notice code is thrown causing to lose all power to engine even though the vehicle is not overheating. I am put at risk because while traveling my jeep loses all power and someone could run into the back of my vehicle when traveling down the road.

Screen went out but it works I am just unable to use the screen features and had to replace my start/stop battery in less than a year

Since I’ve had my car both batteries continue to fail (I’ve had them both replaced multiple times now). Also my display screen glitched for quite some time and now does not work at all, causing me to be unable to use my back up camera as well as my radio.

Auto stop feature will not consistently work. My daughter has been in an intersection on several occasions when the vehicle would not re start. This happened in October of 2022 and a battery and a battery and sensor were replaced. This is now happening again putting her in danger in the middle of roadways.

The Auxiliary battery has died 3 times in 4 years. The dealership each time has replaced it and has stated it is unknown why the battery keeps dying. I have brought to 2 different Jeep dealerships.

The uconnect touch screen is ghost touching and glitching out causing it to mess with my cars functions and distracting me while driving.

My car kept giving me messages transmission, check engine, your car will shut down. All messages then came across the dash and it stopped running. I took it to keep dealer they put it on the diagnostic machine. Replaced my 12v start stop battery and said it’s all good to go. Drove about 25 miles and another message came on drive around in a circle and recalibrate. Drove another mile and a message said engine will shut down and it did. Tried to start it it wouldn’t start but my brake lights and my flood light remained on and I couldn’t lock my vehicle. Checked it 8 hours later car was completely dead. Pretty sure the battery was drained It was Christmas Eve will wait until Monday to have it towed for the second time. .

Auto start stop system error. Also initiated a check engine light, right turn signal not working, brake lights stopped working, and parking light stopped working. Safety issue because inoperation of lights poses issue with other drivers. Vehicle has 17,500 miles.

Since I purchased my Jeep Compass Trailhawk in February 2019, sporadically a message appears on the dashboard display about "High Coolant Temperature" and immediately sends the vehicle to shut down and after a couple of seconds the error disappears and the temperature returns to normal. I must clarify that at no time does the vehicle overheat. This error occurs at any time of the day, regardless of whether the vehicle is cold in the morning or after driving for several hours; sometimes it occurs several times a week and sometimes not at all for weeks; the vehicle may be stopped at a traffic light or in motion on the highway, a particular situation that worries me greatly, because when this happens, the vehicle locks up for an instant (approximately one second) in which the steering hardens and the vehicle tends to stop abruptly, and I fear that this may cause damage to my car or even worse cause an accident. This situation has been reported since the first time it happened (about 11 months ago) and I have had to go to the garage about 10-15 times. In each occasion the technical team has tried to solve the problem without success, they even replaced a control module, installed updates, ran the scanner, and made long driving tests trying to recreate the condition that causes the error without succeeding.

I was driving and my car completely shut down for “high coolant temperature” and then just turned back on like nothing happened

THE CAR RANDOMLY FAILS TO START WITH THE PUSH OF THE START BUTTON. IT SAYS TO PRESS THE BRAKE PEDAL AND THE BUTTON TO START, HOWEVER IT WILL NOT WORK. NOTHING HAPPENS. EVENTUALLY IT WILL START, COULD BE 1 MINUTE, COULD BE 10 OR 15 MINUTES. SOMETHING IS OBVIOUSLY WRONG. SERVICE OF COURSE COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE ISSUE, SO NOTHING WAS FIXED. IT HAS HAPPENED AROUND 5 TIMES IN THREE WEEKS. CAR IS BRAND NEW. I ASSUME THIS IS SOME ISSUE AFFECTING MORE THAN JUST MY VEHICLE. IF THE START BUTTON DOESN'T WORK, THERE IS NO OVER RIDING WAY TO START THE CAR.

VEHICLE HAS SHUT OFF TWICE WHILE DRIVING WITH NO WARNING. FIRST INSTANCE OCCURRED ON A HIGHWAY AND THE SECOND AT AN INTERSECTION.
