| 2009 | STEERING | 2009 JEEP COMPASS, WITH 31,278 MILES SHOWED EXCESSIVE WEAR IN BOTH THE LEFT LOWER CONTROL ARM AND OUTER TIE ROD END. THOUGH COVERED UNDER WARRANTY, THE LOWER CONTROL ARM ISSUE IS REFLECTIVE OF OUR SIMILAR EXPERIENCE WITH OUR 2007 JEEP PATRIOT. THE NHTSA SHOULD INVESTIGATE BOTH THE JEEP COMPASS AND PATRIOTS FOR A DESIGN FLAW IN THE LOWER CONTROL ARM. A LOWER CONTROL/BALL JOINT/TIE ROD FAILURE, AT HIGHWAY SPEED, CAN RESULT IN A FATAL ACCIDENT. *TR |
| 2009 | STRUCTURE | TL*THE CONTACT OWNS A 2009 JEEP COMPASS. FROM INSIDE THE PASSENGER COMPARTMENT, THE CONTACT COULD HEAR THE SOUND OF THE WIND BLOWING OUTSIDE WHILE DRIVING VARIOUS SPEEDS. THE ISSUE BECAME IRRITATING. NO REPAIRS HAVE BEEN MADE TO THE VEHICLE AND THE DEALER WILL NOT ASSIST. THE FAILURE AND CURRENT MILEAGES WERE LESS THAN 1,000. |
