2012 Jeep Compass consumer reviews

No repairs needed in two and one half years. Very capable in the snow. We feel very secure and comfortable on trips.

3 weeks ago I have up ....with much sorrow and tears...my 20 year old Jeep Grand Cherokee Laredo. Yes, a 1993 ! I loved that jeep! knew every dial and knob in it without my reading glasses! Sure, he was starting to creak and groan....so am I ! But he was the most reliable truck on the road. Always started, handled great , lots of room and I sat up pretty high. I told my husband the only way I would give my Jeep up is if I could get another. I never even looked at another brand....went right to a Jeep dealer. Now I have a 2013 Compass....just the sport model...nothing fancy. It's a stick, quite peppy! it's smaller than I was used to and I sit lower. Will probably need a pillow since I don't like not being able to see the front end. It's not a quiet ride like I was led to believe. On the highway you do hear the road. The 6 CD radio is nice. So far the only thing I don't like is the gas milage. It's supposed to get 23 town, 29 Hwy. I'm averaging 21 . For a manual shift that's disappointing. Other that that I'm actually looking forward to some snow so I can test out the 4 wheel drive. I bought this used but it only had 4,600 miles on it.

I am 100% satisfied with this vehicle purchase. It's perfect for me and I would recommend the Jeep Compass to anyone. I love the sturdy feel while driving. I was very surprise with the comfort in back seat, as well as the driver or front passenger. First week and I'm in love. Almost 300 miles and still plenty of gas. Thank you Thomson Motor and Mr. Crook.

Purchased Compass for son - one year old car for under $14K. Excellent value - great gas mileage - has the new headlights greatly improving the look. Car has good acceleration.

I am a big guy and I can get in it with no problem runs real smooth. the only thing about it I would improve on it would be the power

I have had my Compass for 11 months so far, and I am enjoying it. The only thing I wish it had was better gas mileage. For a 4cy eng I thought it would get better gas mileage than the 6cy Escape I traded in for, but they run about the same.

Bought our 2012 used through a dealership. Gas mileage is not the greatest unless you use the non-ethenol blend. This car would NOT be for someone in high traffiic areas as there is no 'pick up.' The CVT does not allow for quick acceleration, even on our rural roads I can't get around tractors. TONS of leg room front and back, which is wonderful when we have two sons over 6 foot!

I really enjoyed my Jeep for 9 months. After those months my check engine light loves to show up at the most inconvenient time. Twice for EMS system (emission switch) and once for Gas Cap. Crazy! I will be traded this car in the near future.

I have enjoyed my Jeep. I have no complaints. The gas mileage is not as good as my Saturn was, but the style outside and inside is very modern

Recently purchased a 2012 trail Rated Compass Latitude with Sun and Sound Package, 4x4, Automatic, and the Off Road Package. I love this car! It drives great. The gas mileage so far isn't as great as i had hoped but not bad for a 4 wheel drive SUV. I cant wait to try it out in the snow. Its very roomy and i plan on taking it camping. Right now we also have a Jeep Wrangler that we can load up pretty well, but this will be so much better. I like how the 4x4 mode is the touch of a button, unlike our Wrangler. I feel safe driving this vehicle and would recomend it to anyone.
