2014 Jeep Compass vehicle speed control problems

“ABS module is faulty causing other issues including problems with electronic stability, no speedometer, no cruise control, no abs brakes. Apparently Jeep is no longer making this part as it has been on backorder for months. I feel it is unsafe as winter weather is nearing and abs brakes would be essential for safe driving. At [XXX] old I feel it is an essential part of safe driving for myself and my wife. I've been communicating with Jeep customer care for several weeks with absolutely no resolve. It appears they are not even producing the part that would seem essential for safe driving.”

“The car broke down the very first day I got it! The alternator had to be changed I took it back to Auto connection where I got it from and they replaced it. Since then the car has been breaking down, I have had to pay for out of pocket for a new thermostat, another alternator, hoses, fuel pump, and I have only had the car a yr. Now it’s making a loud hissing noise after I just paid for brand new spark plugs and it’s not accelerating and ver 40/45 mph! Which is costing me more money to pay for a uber to work and everywhere I need to go while still making car payments! My insurance doesn’t handle these repairs. I need immediate help please!”

“I was slowing to make a left turn and the engine began to sound like it was accelerating. A lightning bolt light, skid warning light and check engine light all came on. I needed to get it home, but the car wouldn’t go above 25mph. Googling says that it has a stuck throttle body. Have not attempted to fix yet.”

“The first time the situation occurred we were out of town. Warning lights appeared. The car had sluggish acceleration, noisy, rough ride, hesitating, jerking type movements . We thought it was going to stop. The message appeared "Do not drive the vehicle." My husband took the Jeep to the dealer and they were supposed to have fixed it. He was told it was the throttle. We drove the Jeep and the problem stopped for a while. It occurred again on May 25, 2023 and we had to turn around and go back home and park the vehicle and we have not been able to drive it. I found the following information; 2014 Jeep Compass Among Chrysler Vehicles Recalled for Stall Risk. We have never received a letter about a recall. Warning lights came across the board.”

“The Electronic Throttle Control light(steady) and the Electronic Stability Control Activation/Malfunction Indicator Lights came on. There are times the engine light comes on. The vehicle would not accelerate, jerking kind of movement, going 20 miles.”

“MULTIPLE ISSUES WITH THROTTLE BODY RESULTING IN A LOSS OF POWER AND CONTROL OF VEHICLE. BACK IN 2017, I HAD AN ISSUE WITH THE CAR JERKING, CUTTING OUT, AND LOSING POWER. TOOK CAR TO A JEEP DEALERSHIP AND THROTTLE BODY HAD TO BE REPLACED. AGAIN DURING THE SUMMER OF 2020, VEHICLE STARTED LOSING ABILITY TO CONSISTENTLY ACCELERATE. CAR BEGAN JERKING, CUTTING OUT, AND LOSING POWER ON THE ROADS AND HIGHWAY. THE VEHICLE THROTTLE LIGHT, STABILITY TRACTION CONTROL, AND ENGINE LIGHT ILLUMINATED. DEALERSHIP CONFIRMED THROTTLE NEEDS TO BE REPLACED AGAIN. REPORTED TO JEEP CORPORATE OFFICE WITH NO RESOLUTION. SEVERE SAFETY ISSUE. JEEP DOESN'T CARE AND IS CLAIMING NO RESPONSIBILITY UNTIL A RECALL HAS TO BE ISSUED.”
