2007 Jeep Compass Visibility & Wipers Problems

THE WIPERS HAVE STOPPED WORKING TOOK IT TO A DEALER SHOP AND WAS TOLD IT WAS THE TIPM MODULAR WHICH AFTER LOOKING INTO IT IS A COMMON PROBLEM WITH THESE VEHICLES THIS IS A PRICEY FIX AND SHOULD HAVE A RECALL ON THIS. *TR

THE COMPLAINT IS ON 2007 JEEP COMPASS WITH SUNROOF OPTION. THE SUNROOF IS NOT INSTALLED APPROPRIATELY AND WHEN IT RAINS, AND THE SUNROOF DRAINS GET CLOGGED, THE WATER LEAKS INTO THE CAR THROUGH THE MAP LIGHTS AND AS WELL THROUGH THE FLOORBOARDS OF THE CAR. THE WATER DAMAGE CAN CAUSE LONG TERM MOLD AND RUST ON THE FRAME OF THE CAR THAT WOULD BE UNKNOWN TO THE OWNER. THE LEAKS ALSO CAN CAUSE MECHANICAL FAILURE TO THE CAR. I HAVE ALREADY HAD MY SPEAKERS FAIL AND CANNOT IMAGINE WHAT ELSE MAY FAIL. I HAVE ALSO SEEN NUMEROUS COMPLAINTS REGARDING THIS PROBLEM ON OTHER JEEPS AND CHRYSLER MODELS WITH SUNROOF OPTIONS. *TR

2007 JEEP COMPASS FRONT PASSENGER DOOR WINDOW SHATTERED WHILE DRIVING ON THE HIGHWAY. *KB OHIO TRAFFIC CRASH REPORT # 10-90-0963. *JB

ON THE MORNING OF 02/10/2007 I WAS WAITING IN A LINE OF VEHICLES AT A LOCAL CAR WASH. I HAD NOT ENTERED OR USED THE CAR WASH TO THAT POINT. SUDDENLY, MY REAR WINDOW LITERALLY EXPLODED INTO THOUSANDS OF SMALL PIECES. I CHECKED THE BACK OF MY CAR AND THE PAVEMENT IN THE BACK OF CAR FOR EVIDENCE OF SOMETHING THAT MAY HAVE BEEN THROWN AT MY CAR AND FOUND NOTHING. I BELIEVE THAT THE GLASS WAS DEFECTIVE AND WAS AFFECTED BY THE COLD WEATHER. ANYWAYS HAD MY CHILDREN BEEN IN THE BACK SEAT, THERE IS A POSSIBILITY THAT THE BROKEN GLASS COULD HAVE STRUCK THEM IN THE BACK OF THEIR HEADS. *JB

WINDSHIELD JUST CRACKED ONE DAY WHILE I WAS DRIVING TO WORK ON MY 2007 JEEP COMPASS. NOW IT HAS CRACKED SOME MORE AND A SURVEY SAID THAT THE WINDSHIELD WILL CRACK UNDER CERTAIN TYPES OF WEATHER.
