2018 Jeep Compass consumer reviews

This car is great, fast and sleek. Its winter in Alaska so I use the snow mode all the time. Super steady on the road and feels great. Looks great, like the Grand Cherokee at half the cost, although the Cherokee is getting a makeover for 2019 too. Pros: Great driver, heated steering wheel and seats are a plus, and I love that they turn on automatically with the autostart (when its cold). Four doors, good headroom in the back even for a tall person. Storage in the rear fits two full side suitcases side by side. Electronic steering is very smooth and easy. Some poeple might mention the engine being weak and it is anything but. I have the 2.4, and it has plenty of power. I dont know why someone needs to jump from 60 to 70 like a spring, but this can do that too. Its a smart transmission, very smooth and quiet. As much power as you will ever need, and then some. Cons: Cant get the seat into the perfect comfort spot. Doesnt have lumbar and it feels like it was just made for a smaller person. I'm 6'7" so I didnt expect much. The headrest hits me in the back weird sometimes. The center armrest is also very firm. On a long drive, my elbow gets pretty sore. With the front seats moved back a lil, not much legroom in the back, even if there is headroom. Overall, great car at a great price. The Cherokee is maybe a little bigger for the same price, but I m not a fan of the current front end, next years model will be nice though. This is a mix of the great look, a great engine, and a new, sporty, all wheel drive, winter daily driver.

This vehicle rides well, performs well in snow, very good gas mileage. The 9 speed auto transmission gives the 4 cylinder snappy performance. Cons: Front passenger seat does not fold flat and no garage door button built in. Rear window visibility not great and you must depend on the rear view camera.

Went to the dealership thinking we wouldn't buy a car right away, but we ended up falling in love with our jeep. Great design both inside and outside, very spacious and easily drivable. Overall it's by far the best car I've ever owned.

We bought a Jeep Compass (Limited). The car is exceptional inside out. The ride is smooth, enough power to merge into the highway safely, quiet, solid and comfortable. The profile is eye-catching and the White Pearl color is so appealing. And it's 4-wheel drive with all of the latest tech. Jeep got his one right!

I'm 6' tall and I'm very comfortable in this vehicle. I love the heating and air conditioning controls. The vehicle is pretty snappy for only having a 4 cylinder.

I was very pleased when I first test drove this car. It was exactly the type of vehicle I was looking for. Very happy with my purchase. Drives great and looks great. Very safe and reliable too!

The new Jeep Compas is a good alternative if you don't need or want a big SUV. It's big enough for four adults, has the best infotainment system that includes Apple CarPlay, and doesn't compromise on design. The interior is very comfortable and stylish. It's doesn't look like a cheaper imitation of a bigger Grand Cherokee.

I have not had the Compass very long, so I honestly cannot speak to its reliability. In all other areas, it hits the mark. The interior is comfortable and the Latitude trim, with popular and cold weather groups, is well appointed with creature comforts. I have never owned a vehicle with a heated steering wheel, but I will from now on. I am a former Jeep Wrangler owner, the compass is not in any way, the off road beast the Wrangler was. So, if your goal is the same off road ability with an upgrade in comfort, don't buy the Compass. If you are looking for pointed style, comfort and technology while being able to get to work in the middle of a Noreaster, the Compass should be on your test drive list. About the issue of power...no, the Compass will not win many points, but we also own a '17 Equinox 4cyl. and the Compass is superior. It handles like a tight and smooth European sedan that allows the driver to feel confident under harsh conditions. I have owned several Honda Pilots and VW sedans...the Compass competes well with the Pilot (suv giant) and VW (autobahn cruiser). It has very good marks for being safe...and, its fun to drive and keeps my hands warm! Well done.

I love my 2018 Jeep Compass! It is a perfect fit for me and not too big. The new style looks very sporty. I would definitely recommend the 2018 Jeep Compass

We bought this Jeep a few days ago. We got the ski gray and black leather seats and they look and feel great. It snowed today and my wife had 0 issues getting through it with the 4 wheel drive. We traded in a 2014 Cherokee and my wife while she really liked the Cherokee loves the Compass and is glad we bought it. Everyone that has seen it loves the way it looks and the stylish interior. Also people are saying the engine and transmission are sluggish. We find it to be very smooth and for a 4 cylinder engine it actually picks up speed very well and is not sluggish at all.
