2007 Compass Transmission Problem?
I have a 2007 Compass that has developed an issue with, I think, the transmission.
My father in law normally drives the car and told me today it wouldn't go over about 30mph and struggled to get there. I drove the car and noticed it. I also noticed the check engine light was on. On a lark, I disconnected the battery and took the car for a drive. It drove fine. We drove it about 8 miles to the store. When we came out and left it was doing it again. I pulled over, disconnected the battery and all was fine again. I haven't driven it again tonight, but I suspect it will act up again. Is this a transmission issue or possibly a computer issue? I also noticed the headlights acting strange. They would not turn off unless I turned the switch on and then back off. That got me to thinking maybe it was the computer. Any insights would be greatly appreciated! Gary |

Go to Auto Zone or Advanced Auto and get a free ECU scan post the codes. As I use my own scanner I'm not sure what capabilities their scanner has. But it's free it's a good place to start.
You can call a few transmission shops and get a quote on a scan. Get one with a good reputation. If you know what you need G7 computer repair. They repair about all items on a jeep for $200.00 if mailed to them as it's the same unit it doesn't need reprogrammed. |
