2023 Jeep Compass Steering Problems

While driving at highway speeds, your brakes suddenly failed completely and became hard to press, requiring extreme force to stop the vehicle and nearly causing a collision. At the same time, your dashboard showed multiple warning messages about the electronic stability control, park brake, and other systems. After the dealership held the vehicle for over 60 days and attempted repairs, the brakes and electrical system remain unstable with intermittent battery and charging warnings that haven't been permanently fixed.

Your car sways side to side while driving and your steering wheel vibrates or shakes. This could indicate an issue with the suspension, steering components, or wheel balance that should be inspected. A mechanic will need to check your suspension system, wheel alignment, and tire balance to identify and correct the problem.

Your steering rack and pinion developed a power steering fluid leak and required replacement. You're also experiencing a clicking sound when turning the wheels, which may indicate worn CV joints that could need attention soon.

Your steering wheel has sharp plastic edges on the molding that can cut your hands while driving. The plastic finish appears to be incomplete or rough, creating a hazard when you grip the wheel on the sides. This could distract you or cause injury while operating the vehicle. The steering wheel trim will likely need to be refinished or replaced to smooth out the sharp edges.

On my way to work this morning 4:30 ish the same way I always take. My car decided to drive itself, every light on the middle console lit up, and the dashboard. I was going 50 when my car completely lost control while I tapped my brakes no response its locked, my steering wheel locked up, my brakes locked everything went haywire it would not let me steer or even shift to neutral all I could do was pray it stopped while it flipped off the road around 5:14 am with me still trapped inside. My seat belt wouldn't release my doors wouldn't unlock and my windows wouldn't roll down I was trapped breathing in airbag fumes for an hour until help finally came. They had to cut the windshield open to save me. I have no idea what went wrong but I could've died or have been burned to death my car acted like it went under water and not over it. I only had it for three days and I honestly feel like I have been robbed I am a mopar fan however after this I will never be again. No one believed me except for the two truck driver because the car kept trying to drive itself while he was loading it on his truck. Please save someone else I can't be the only one. I was three hours late for work and I'm always an hour early.
