My Compass turns heads

I have been pleased with my Don Davis Jeep purchase. The ride is great and dash is really cool. The rear seats are comfortable. I love the rear camera.

I'm obsessed with my Jeep

I love the Compass! I've never felt more safe in a vehicle. It has everything I need and I'm excited to drive it every day. The cold weather package is awesome and another feature is it turns off when stopped! I'm so happy with my purchase.

They heard what I want and made it happen

My new Jeep Compass Limited is all I had asked for. My new vehicle is just what I wanted, with all the bells and whistles.

Electrical Problems from the First 20 Miles

The Jeep is beautiful, & gets great gas mileage, but it has major electric problems. It doesn’t crank a lot of the time. I just have to sit there from 5-15 minutes pressing the button trying to get it to turn on. The screen messes up a lot. Also, it’s not an AWD, but it literally got stuck sitting in my yard. I am so disappointed & unhappy. I have an appointment scheduled with the dealership to get it looked at, but I really just want to give it back. I’m not happy.

Awesome car!

This car has plenty of technology that comes standard, the legroom is amazing both in the front and back seats. It has a large cargo area, and seats fold down to make it even larger. The engine has more power than you think a 4 Cylinder would have, and the 4x4 option is a must!

3rd new Jeep Compass in 6 years

A lot more bells and whistles than the wife needed but she will figure it out eventually. In the meantime a nice vehicle for me to drive.

Love this vehicle

This car is exactly what I was looking for. Sporty and roomy and versatile. Drives great. Has all of the up to date features. Can’t wait to try it out in the snow

A great looking Jeep; but lacking in performance

I took a long time deciding on this vehicle – searching through the crowded field of small SUV's, there was nothing I quite took a liking to – until I saw the Compass. It's a handsome tough looking fella, and the Limited version had all the amazing add-ons I wanted. It's 4x4 capability is really great, and Jeep's reputation for off-road capability seems upheld. However it lacks some driving performance. I knew this going in – that the 4-cylinder engine was a decent 180HP; but there is a clear lacking in pick-up. Very slow acceleration out of first gear. Also gas mileage has been extremely bad so far – only getting 320km out of the 51 litre tank. This may change over time as the vehicle breaks in, I certainly hope. Overall happy with the vehicle, but concerned I'm burning too much gas and am annoyed by it's low-end acceleration.

My previous vehicle was a Jeep Patriot

I had almost 300,000 on my Jeep Patriot, 2010 model. I had no major repairs and hope the same for my Compass. When I wanted a new vehicle I already had the Jeep Compass in mind. The Compass is comfortable but I wish the cup holders were positioned better.
