2019 Jeep Compass Engine Problems

Your oil warning light has flashed briefly and your engine has completely shut down while turning, happening twice within a month. This is especially dangerous because it could cause you to lose control while driving. The issue appears to be related to your start-stop system based on a previous complaint you filed. A mechanic should inspect your oil level, oil pressure sensor, and start-stop system to identify why the engine is shutting down unexpectedly.

Your engine is misfiring during acceleration and deceleration, and your car is overheating with a coolant temperature warning. A mechanic diagnosed this as a blown head gasket with oil mixing into the coolant, which typically requires an engine rebuild or replacement. This is a serious issue that may require complete engine work to resolve.

Your engine overheated while driving, triggering a coolant warning light on your dashboard. After pulling over and adding coolant several times, you took it to the dealer and they found a failed cylinder that requires a complete engine replacement. This happened at around 141,000 miles.

Your engine stalled at a stoplight when you tried to accelerate. The service engine light, electronic throttle control warning, and stop/start system warning all illuminated at the same time. After waiting a few minutes, the engine restarted normally. This could indicate an issue with the throttle control system, engine sensors, or the stop/start mechanism that needs diagnostic testing to identify the root cause.

Your engine stalled at a stoplight when you tried to accelerate, and your engine temperature warning light came on. After waiting a few minutes, the engine started normally again. This could indicate an overheating issue or a sensor problem that needs diagnostic testing to identify the root cause.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that a message that the coolant level was high was displayed on the instrument panel and immediately after the message was displayed, the vehicle failed to accelerate as needed. Additionally, the windows failed to open and close, the doors failed to lock and unlock, and there were other unstated electrical malfunctions. The contact coasted over to the side of the road and turned off and restarted the vehicle several times for the vehicle to operate as needed. The failure was intermittent but had occurred approximately 12 times. The dealer was contacted; however, the contact had not received a callback. The vehicle was not taken to the dealer to be diagnosed or repaired. The manufacturer was not informed of the failure. The failure mileage was 60,000.

The car flashed an error code "Coolant temp too high" and the engine shut down while I was entering the parking lot of my son’s school. The car froze up, but then turned itself back on. The coolant temperature was normal. I’ve been terrified to drive ever since.

The car flashed an error code "Coolant temp to high" and shut the engine down while I was entering the on ramp to the expressway. The car stalled in the middle of the lane. The coolant temp was normal and not high. I was able to restart the car and had no issue for rest of the drive. I checked my coolant levels and everything is normal. This again happened the next day in my neighborhood thankfully. The code flashed and the engine immediately shut down. There was little to no time to react. My fear is this will happen again when my daughter is driving.

I was driving normally down the street and the car suddenly shut itself off and a warning light came up that said something like "coolant high" and then it lost all power. after 5-10 seconds, everything came back on as normal. this has happened approximately 20 times in the last 2 years. I took it to the Jeep dealership and they tried to pull codes to see what was happening and they state that they cannot figure out what is wrong with it because it is not pulling any codes for that.

I am submitting this complaint regarding my 2019 Jeep Compass, which suffered catastrophic engine failure at only 50,000 miles despite regular maintenance and timely oil changes. The vehicle has been well-maintained, with all scheduled oil changes performed on time using the recommended oil and filters. Despite this, the engine experienced a dropped cylinder, leading to total failure and requiring a full engine replacement. The manufacturer, Jeep (Stellantis), refuses to cover the repair, stating that the vehicle is just outside its 5-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty due to the time limit. However, engine failure at only 50,000 miles is highly premature and raises concerns about possible defects in the engine design, materials, or assembly. Given that many modern engines last well beyond 100,000 miles with proper maintenance, I believe this failure may indicate a widespread manufacturing defect that could pose safety risks to other Jeep Compass owners. If the engine fails unexpectedly, it could cause loss of power while driving, creating a serious hazard for drivers and passengers. I request that the NHTSA investigate whether other Jeep Compass owners have experienced similar premature engine failures and determine if this issue requires a recall, extended warranty coverage, or manufacturer accountability. Jeep should not be allowed to avoid responsibility for major engine failures in vehicles with such low mileage. Safety Concerns: •Unexpected engine failure can lead to sudden loss of power, increasing accident risks. •If this issue is widespread, other Jeep Compass owners could face similar failures without warning. •The manufacturer should be held accountable for defects leading to premature catastrophic failures. I urge the NHTSA to investigate this issue and determine if a recall or extended coverage program is warranted to protect consumers from unexpected and costly failures.

When I exited my car to enter my workplace on January 27, 2025, I noticed the radio had not turned off, which was unusual. I re-entered the car, turning the ignition on and off, hoping to shut the radio down. However, when I attempted to start the car, it made stalling noises, and would not turn on. After several attempts, the car turned on but the temperature gauge soared, and an error message about high coolant temperature appeared, causing the car to shut down immediately. I called my husband, who suggested waiting a few minutes before trying again. Fortunately, the car started, and I went into work, advised by my husband not to touch it until it was time to leave. Later, I drove directly to the Jeep dealership. Two days passed, and they dismissed the issue, unable to replicate it. Online research revealed this is a recurring problem with this model, raising my fears of the car shutting down unexpectedly in risky situations like driving on the highway.

Every 3000 to 5000 miles the car jerks like the transmission is slipping, the coolant temperature warning sign comes on, and the car shuts off while driving. No warranty will fix the issue and it is very unsafe to have your car shut off while on the highway driving 70mph. This has happened several times. Jeep dealer will not fix

Stop/start stalling and shutting down at intersection. When lifting foot off the brake, vehicle may start up again just briefly but then stalls out. The vehicle has been stuck in traffic, at high risk for an accident. I have been successful in restarting the vehicle thus far to resume driving. Behavior can occur multiple times a day or once a week but it has been present for >2 yrs. Problem has been reported and inspected by local dealership but, per the dealership, unable to replicate on demand. Solution provided has been to replace both batteries but remedy is short lived. Dashboard error: Auto Stop/Start Not Ready/Unavailable . This error appears after the engine stop/start stalls and engine shutdown but goes away when car is restarted

The motor is constantly burning oil between oil changes it takes 5.5 quarts on an oil change when the oil is changed I get less than 4 quarts out of the oil pan and this time the oil light came on and I checked the oil level and it was about 4 quarts low and I have the oil changed every 5,000 miles like the manufacture recommends I have read multiple complaints online that this is a known issue with the jeep compass and other vehicles with the 2.4 multiair engine in them

after making a left turn, the engine shut off, an alert on the dashboard read the coolant temperature was too high. Then a second later the coolant alarm went away, the temperature gauge dropped back to normal and the engine started back up. This happened too fast to be an actual problem with the coolant temperature. It happened as described here: [XXX] If this had happened 3 seconds sooner, I would have been stuck in traffic while making a left turn. I'm a little shocked NHTSA has precluded this is not a dangerous issue. INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

My engine has killed 3 times while in motion but coming to a stop. I get an alert that the coolant temp is too hot and the engine immediately shuts off while everything else (radio, lights, etc.) remains on. After I put the vehicle in park and shut it off, I'm able to restart it right away and the coolant temp is completely normal. I took the vehicle to a mechanic for a full diagnostic check and they said that this is a known issue with Jeep vehicles and that there's no known solution for it. This happens without warning and there are no alerts or error messages before the vehicle shuts off. Luckily, each time this has happened has been while I've been coming to a stop in a quiet residential area but my concern is that it could happen while I'm on a busy highway. Here is a link to the inspection report I got back from the mechanic: [XXX] INFORMATION REDACTED PURSUANT TO THE FREEDOM OF INFORMATION ACT (FOIA), 5 U.S.C. 552(B)(6)

engine is over heating and now the transmission is having problems its only 5 years old. My safety is important the car could have caught fire and it slowed down while i was on the highway that could get me in an accident

The "coolant temperature too high" error message has flashed three times, the first on 10/22/2023, the second on 12/19/2023 and the third on 12/22/2023. In one instance the "service parking brake" error message flashed as well. This instance was four days after the vehicle passed the state safety inspection and the dealer made no notes of needed repairs to the brake system. Thankfully in all instances, the vehicle was parked and not in motion which prevented the cause of a safety issue to myself or other drivers on the road. The first time this occurred was after the vehicle had been parked overnight and for most of the next day whereas the last two were after short drives. There are no stored messages in the gauge cluster and no DTC codes when checking with a code reader via the OBDII port. I also checked the coolant level after each instance and the level was good each time. No other warning lamps, messages or symptoms happened prior to this message. I have not had the vehicle diagnosed by the dealer or an independent mechanic. I have seen this issue reported multiple times on Jeep forums and in all cases, the issue was never reproduced and best efforts were used to fix the issue but FCA has not been able to provide one. I have read that batteries, sensors, etc. have been replaced but the issue still remains. I came here today to report this, knowing that there was an open investigation but found that the investigation was closed in 12/2023. I felt that I should report my instances anyway in hopes that if I do and others also come forward that the investigation may be reopened. While no crash, fire, injury or fatality have been reported yet, there is a strong possibility that any of these could occur.

Car stalled out while idling at red light. Car had to be towed to dealer!!replaced battery !! Stalled again dealer said the cause was faulty door latches!! Car stalled again, had to be towed to dealer , kept for 5 days!! All codes cleared , incident never repeated!!!

Took it for regular maintenance and was told both batteries needed to be replaced. Replaced them a month later car wouldn’t start, got it to start and completely shut off while going 60 mph.

WAS DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY AND MY JEEP JUST CUT OFF AND WOULD NOT START BACK UP, IT LOCKED UP EVERYTHING. HAD TO GET IT TOWED TO THE DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY HAVE HEARD OF THESE PROBLEMS, THEY TESTED EVERYTHING OUT AND SAID IT WAS POSSIBLY THE BATTERY, GOT THE BATTERY REPLACED WITH A NEW ONE, ONE WEEK LATER IT DID THE SAME THING WHILE AT A STOP LIGHT AND COULD NOT GET IT TO START, TOWED TO DEALERSHIP AND THEY SAID THEY COULD NOT FIGURE OUT THE PROBLEM, AFTER A WHILE IT STARTED BACK UP. THIS IS VERY UNSAFE EXPECIALLY WHEN I HAVE A ONE YR OLD CHILD THAT IS IN THE CAR WITH ME, HOW CAN I FEEL SAFE IN A CAR THAT IS GOING TO STOP SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING IN TRAFFIC OR ON A HIGHWAY. NOONE SEEMS TO KNOW THE PROBLEM TO GET THIS FIXED SO I CAN DRIVE MY CAR SAFELY ON THE ROADS. VERY SCARY.

As I was exiting one interstate and merging onto another one the engine stalled. A message displayed telling me the cruise had shut off (my cruise was on but not in use when the engine stalled). This is the second time this has happened - both on the highway.

The vehicle will be shut off via auto stop start system at a traffic light, I'll let off the gas and the vehicle will sometimes take several tries to start or totally stall out and have to be manually restarted, it's dangerous.

The stop/start system for saving on gas mileage has pulled the charge from the secondary stop/start battery and depleted that, in turn pulling from the car battery and depleting that and then pulling on the alternator, weakening it. The car has been stuck in "off" regarding the stop/start system. The car died in traffic today with again the battery depleted. After jumpstarting it, and turning the car off, it would not restart as the cells have been depleted. It is dangerous when you have no warning, no battery light to tell you that it needs help. I have another Jeep , a Cherokee Limited 4x4 that did the same thing and stranded me in the middle of six lanes of traffic. This is a serious Jeep problem that is going the get people killed, if it already has not. I will write a complaint about that as well.

While driving, the Jeep Compass lurched forward several times rather than having smooth acceleration. Within 5 minutes, the vehicle was sputtering and the engine just shut down completely. the "BRAKE" light illuminated on the dashboard, but no check engine light has ever been on. I was able to restart 4 times as I was trying to get to a mechanic. The last time I restarted it was struggling to start. Mechanic has since looked at it, and there are no codes to indicate what is going on. I did notice online that there are other complaints of Jeep Compass shutting off while driving, so I wanted to file a complaint.

High temperature coolant warning message appeared while car was parked and being turned on. This was followed by engine shutdown. The car had to be towed.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while driving 35 MPH, the vehicle stalled. The vehicle was not drivable. The contact towed the vehicle to the local dealer, where it was diagnosed with oil consumption failure and that the engine needed to be replaced. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer had been informed of the failure. The failure mileage was approximately 40,000.

High Coolant temperature warning came up on dashboard and engine shut off while I was driving my vehicle through an intersection. Car had plenty of coolant and other fluids, car was not overheating. About 5 minutes later the car turned back on.

Was driving along going 35 mph and had to stop for a pedestrian crossing the road. After coming to a full stop, the Jeep flashed a warning on the dashboard that the “engine coolant temperature is too hot” and the car completely shut off. The car was then turned back on and driven another 10 minutes to work without issue. After researching, it seems that we are no the only ones that are seeing this issue and is a massive safety issue if, for example, the car on the highway and shut off while going 70+ miles and hour. We are not sure what components are the issue as there were no warning lights or anything prior to the issue occurring.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that on several occasions while driving approximately 75 MPH, the vehicle inadvertently decelerated to approximately 45 MPH for approximately 3 seconds, hesitated, and then stalled. The contact stated that before the vehicle stalled, the coolant temperature warning light illuminated. The vehicle was taken to the dealer where it was diagnosed that the oil, START/STOP, and battery needed to be replaced. The vehicle was repaired however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was taken to another dealer however, the failure could not be duplicated. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure and the contact was provided a case number; however, the case was closed. The contact was offered a reimbursement but declined. The failure mileage was approximately 60,000.

A message appears on the dashboard ‘High Coolant Temperature’ and immediately sends the vehicle to shut off and after a couple of seconds the error disappears and the temperature gauge returns to normal. When it shuts down, the car will either completely shut off or jolt and start back up.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that while driving at various speeds, or while stopped at a traffic light the vehicle would suddenly shut off. The failure had occurred while driving 70 MPH, and while stationary at a traffic light. The vehicle was taken to the local dealer several times, but the mechanic was unable to duplicate the failure. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was notified of the failure, but no assistance was offered. The failure mileage was 16,000. The VIN was unavailable.

Driving at highway speeds today "high coolant temp" message appeared and vehicle lost power briefly, luckily not completely as I was in the far left lane with no shoulder to pull onto. I made my way to the right shoulder and realized my temp was just fine - just below 200 degrees - and vehicle operated normally the rest of the way to work. After giving it a google search and seeing all of the other complaints about this issue, I figured I better report my issue as well in an effort to get this looked into and resolved. Had my car completely shut off like so many of the other complaints I've seen, there would have been an interstate pile up with me at the bottom.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while driving 20 MPH, the vehicle stalled, and the engine oil warning light illuminated. The vehicle was not diagnosed nor repaired by an independent mechanic or dealer. The manufacturer was made aware of the failure and referred the contact to file a complaint with the NHTSA Hotline. The failure mileage was 81,987.

The contact owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated while driving at various speeds, the vehicle lost motive power and failed to restart on various occasions. No warning lights were illuminated. The vehicle was towed to a local dealer, where the failure codes were cleared; however, the failure could not be duplicated. The contact then stated that while driving at an undisclosed speed, he smelled antifreeze, and the vehicle then lost motive power with the check engine, performance transmission, seat belt, and various other warning lights illuminated, and messages displayed. The contact stated that he replaced the battery; however, the failure recurred. The vehicle was not repaired. The manufacturer was not made aware of the failure. The approximate failure mileage was 43,000.

Late July 2022, vehicle started indicating engine over heating regardless of appropriate coolant level. Vehicle then began to not start most times when attempting to turn car on. While driving on expressway, car completely shut off. Was able to coast to the side of the expressway out of the way of other vehicles. Vehicle was taken to a shop where the diagnosis was as follows: engine replacement, radiator replacement, system flush. There is an ongoing investigation currently regarding this type of vehicle.

2 incidents in traffic, in Savannah, GA our 2019 Jeep Compass, temperature gauge shot up and engine shut down, took a minute for my daughter who was driving to start it back up and continue. Had dealer check it in Hinesville, Ga. And could not recreate the same result

The contact’s granddaughter owns a 2019 Jeep Compass. The contact stated that on several occasions while her granddaughter was driving at undisclosed speeds, the vehicle stalled without warning.

ON THREE DIFFERENT OCCASIONS, WHILE DRIVING ON A MAJOR ROAD, THE VEHICLE ENGINE JUST STOPPED. AT THE INSTANT THE ENGINE STOPPED, ENGINE CAUTION LIGHTS ILLUMINATED SAYING THE COOLANT HAD OVERHEATED AND ALLOW THE ENGINE TO COOL. PLACING THE TRANSMISSION IN NEUTRAL, THE ENGINE WAS RESTARTED AND THE JOURNEY CONTINUED. THE VEHICLE WAS TAKEN TO AN AUTHORIZED JEEP REPAIR FACILITY WHERE THEY TEST DROVE IT AND COULD NOT DUPLICATE THE PROBLEM, THERE WERE NO FAULT CODES IN THE COMPUTER, AND BASICALLY NOTHING THEY COULD DO TO TROUBLESHOOT THE PROBLEM. THIS IS MOST DEFINITELY A MATTER OF LIFE SAFETY. THE ENGINE STALLING AT THE WRONG TIME COULD CAUSE A TERRIBLE ACCIDENT.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. THE CONTACT STATED WHILE DRIVING 45 MPH, THE VEHICLE STALLED. THE CONTACT RESTARTED THE VEHICLE AND THE VEHICLE WORKED AS DESIGNED.

MAJOR ISSUE! THIS IS APPARENTLY KNOWN BY JEEP AS THEY HAVE ISSUED A RECALL. YET IT IS HAPPENING TO ADDITIONAL MODELS OUTSIDE THE SCOPE OF THE ISSUED RECALL. 2019 JEEP COMPASS 2.4L. THE ENGINE SHUT OFF WITHOUT ANY WARNING WHILE DRIVING AT APPROXIMATELY 25 MPH. THE VEHICLE IS BRAND NEW WITH ONLY 200 MILES. I PURCHASED THE VEHICLE ONLY 10 DAYS AGO. I TOOK THE VEHICLE BACK AND RETURNED IT, WHICH WAS QUITE THE HEADACHE TO GET THE DEALER TO DO. I BASICALLY TRADED IT IN FOR A JEEP GRAND CHEROKEE SO TO AVOID THE 2.4L ENGINE. I AM OUT QUITE A BIT OF MONEY IN PAYING TAXES, FEES, REGISTRATION, TILE,ETC TWICE DUE TO THIS ISSUE. IN DOING SOME RESEARCH, THIS SEEMS TO BE A FAIRLY COMMON PROBLEM IN BOTH THE JEEP COMPASS AND THE JEEP CHEROKEE IN REGARDS TO THE 2.4L 4 CYLINDER ENGINE. JEEP HAS ISSUED A RECALL ON THE CHEROKEE. THEY NEED TO DO THE SAME ON THE COMPASS. STAY AWAY FROM THE 2.4L 4 CYLINDER ENGINE AT ALL COSTS.

2019 JEEP COMPASS. CONSUMER WRITES IN REGARDS TO VEHICLE STOPPING SUDDENLY WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. *LD THE CONSUMER STATED THE DEALER ADVISED THAT THE VEHICLE RAN LOW ON OIL WHICH CAUSED THE ENGINE TO SHUT OFF WITHOUT WARNING. WHEN THE VEHICLE RESTARTED THE ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. *JS

THE AUTO START/STOP FEATURE IN MY CAR IS NOT RELIABLE. THERE HAVE BEEN THREE INSTANCES WHEN I'VE BEEN STOPPED AT A LIGHT, I TAKE MY FOOT OFF THE BRAKE, THE SYSTEM ACTIVATES START, AND THEN AS SOON AS I HIT THE GAS, MY CAR STALLS. I THEN HAVE TO PUT MY CAR IN PARK, TURN THE VEHICLE OFF COMPLETELY, AND START IT AGAIN. THIS OBVIOUSLY STRIKES HIGH CONCERN DUE TO THE STRONG POSSIBILITY OF BEING REAR ENDED. I TOOK MY VEHICLE IN TO THE DEALERSHIP I BOUGHT IT FROM AND THEY SAID THEY DIDN'T KNOW. I LEFT AGITATED. I JUST PURCHASED MY VEHICLE LESS THAN 6 MONTHS AGO.

TL* THE CONTACT OWNS A 2019 JEEP COMPASS. WHILE ATTEMPTING TO START THE VEHICLE, IT FAILED TO OPERATE AND THE CHECK ENGINE WARNING INDICATOR ILLUMINATED.
