2015 Jeep Compass Cruise Control Problems

Your 2015 Jeep Compass randomly stalls while driving and unexpectedly limits speed to 20 mph or below, making it difficult to accelerate normally. The problem occurs without warning, no dashboard warning lights appear, and the dealership has found no diagnostic codes despite multiple visits. Your car has become unsafe to drive due to unpredictable speed changes, including a recent incident where it suddenly accelerated while you were reversing. The issue may require comprehensive diagnostic testing by a technician who can monitor the vehicle's performance in real-world driving conditions to identify intermittent electrical or engine control system faults.

Your ABS (anti-lock braking system) and traction control warning lights are staying on. This typically indicates a problem with your braking or traction control system that needs diagnosis. A mechanic will need to scan your vehicle's computer to identify the specific fault causing these lights to illuminate.

ROUGH IDLE, SPOTTY ACCELERATION, REMOTE START CUTS OUT, ENGINE LIGHT, EBS LIGHT, THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT ALL COME ON, HIGHER RPM THIS ISSUE SOUNDS LIKE MULTIPLE OTHERS THAT PEOPLE HAVE HAD, BUT THERE'S NO RECALL FOR MY VIN?. THE ATTACHED DESCRIPTION FROM ANOTHER PERSON IS EXACTLY WHAT IS HAPPENING TO MINE. MY VEHICLE HAS 62500 MILES.

CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON,THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT STARTS FLASHING, TRACTION CONTROL LIGHT STARTS FLASHING, REMOTE START CUTS OUT. IDLE BECOMES IRREGULAR AND VEHICLE RUNS ROUGH TO NOT BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE BUT WILL IDLE IN PARK AT OVER 2000 RMPS. VEHICLE ONLY HAS BARELY 19000 MILES. IT HAD TO BE TOWED TO DEALERSHIP.

VEHICLE NOT STARTING, UNABLE TO ACCELERATE OVER 20MPH, IDLING, SHAKING, RADIO UNEXPECTEDLY STOPPED WORKING, VEHICLE NOT COMMUNICATING WITH THE 'COMPUTER' ECM

WHILE DRIVING MY VEHICLE AT THE NORMAL SPEED IT SUDDENLY BEGINS TO SLOW DOWN TO A SNAIL PACE. THE THROTTLE LIGHT AND THE STABILITY LIGHT CAME ON

WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY ON TWO SEPARATE OCCASIONS NOW, MY JEEP SUDDENLY LOSES POWER AND DECELERATES. THE ENGINE LIGHT, ELECTRONIC THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT AND STABILITY CONTROL LIGHT COME ON, THE JEEP RUNS VERY ROUGH AND WILL NOT ACCELERATE. AFTER PULLING OVER AND TURNING THE CAR OFF AND BACK ON THE ENGINE LIGHT STAYS ON AND THE OTHER LIGHTS GO OFF BUT AFTER DRIVING A BIT THE PROBLEM OCCURS AGAIN. WHEN SCANNED THE CODE IS U0401 STATING THAT THERE IS AN ISSUE WITH COMMUNICATION TO THE PCM. THERE IS ONLY 88700 MILES ON THE JEEP. THE POWER TRAIN WARRANTY IS GOOD TO 100000 BUT THE DEALERSHIP STATES THAT THE PCM IS NOT COVERED UNDER THE DRIVETRAIN WARRANTY. AFTER RESEARCHING ONLINE THERE ARE MANY REPORTS OF THIS HAPPENING TO OTHE JEEP COMPASSES AND PATRIOTS. BOTH TIMES THIS HAS HAPPENED ON THE HIGHWAY IT HAS BEEN A PARTICULARLY SCARY SITUATION DUE TO THE FACT THAT THE JEEP RAPIDLY DECELERATES AND THE TRAFFIC BEHIND ME HAS HAD DIFFICULTY SLOWING AS QUICKLY. THIS HAPPENED 12/16/18 AS WELL AS 12 /6/18 AND 12/17/18

I HAVE HAD MY 2015 JEEP COMPASS FOR 2 YEAR AND 8 MONTHS. I BOUGHT IT USED. SINCE THE MOMENT I BOUGHT IT, I HAVE HAD ACCELERATION ISSUES. MY CAR WON'T SHIFT INTO GEAR IMMEDIATELY WHEN I MAKE TURNS. JUST RECENTLY THE THROTTLE CONTROL LIGHT STARTED BLINKING. AS OF TODAY THE LIGHT CAME ON AND STAYED ON. I WAS UNABLE TO DRIVE OVER 20 MPH AND THEN I WASN'T ABLE TO ACCELERATE ANYMORE. I HAD TO PULL OVER AND SHUT THE CAR OFF, I WAITED A FEW MINUTES AND RESTARTED THE CAR. AS SOON AS I MADE A U-TURN THE LIGHT COME BACK ON. I PLAYED WITH THE DIFFERENT DRIVE SETTINGS AS A COASTED BACK HOME. ONCE I MADE IT HOME (6 MINUTES) THE THROTTLE LIGHT WENT OFF AND THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON.

TAKATA RECALL THE THROTTLE CONTROL INDICATOR CAME ON AND THEN I STARTED HAVING ISSUES WITH BEING ABLE TO ACCELERATE. THE CHECK ENGINE LIGHT CAME ON AND THE THROTTLE INDICATOR LIGHT WENT OFF AND COME BACK ON RANDOMLY. I WAS TOLD THAT THERE ARE TWO SENSORS THAT HAVE BEEN KNOW TO GO BAD ON JEEPS AND ONE IF NOT BOTH WOULD NEED TO BE REPLACED. THERE WAS NO WARNING JUST LOST ALL ACCELERATION CAPABILITY GOING 60MPH IN MOTION ON THE HIGHWAY.
