What owners wrote
I was proceeding through a green light. A car coming from my left ran their red light at full speed (approx. 30 MPH) and crashed into my car. My entire front end was damaged. It was pushed in at least 10-12" according to the responding fire department & emt's my airbag should have absolutely gone off and it did not. I was transported to the hospital for neck pain. Luckily nothing is broken but I have severe neck, back, and head pain almost a full week later. I am starting physical therapy next week.
Throttle control failure while operating vehicle. Has happened multiple times with no real answer for repair or cause for failure. Causes: loss of control, speed and acceleration on highway. Very dangerous situation that can potentially cause death and/or serious accident if not corrected. ## VIN passed ## jeep compass 2015 ##
