I’ve had two Jeep compasses now, a 2012 and a 2014. The first I put over 50k miles on with no issues besides regular maintenance, spark plugs and air filter. Had almost 130k miles when it got side swiped. Did very well for someone hitting me at 30 mph. The second has been just as reliable. The gas mileage for these isn’t the greatest but with both I get 22-24 in town and 30ish on highway. They are very popular in the area I live in and I literally never see them sitting outside shops. Just because you dislike a make or a vehicle doesn’t mean I’m going to listen to you babble. Figured I’d write a comment so others are aware.

My 2012 Jeep Patriot is a champ, 6 wrecks, 175k miles (I did uber with it) and I’ve had it for 10 years, my first car. Biggest repair was $700 for the condenser and compressor to be replaced. Everything else was standard, belts, oil changes, spark plugs, brake pads. She’s been an absolute saint and I hope to make it over 200k

Drove a 2020 Compass rental for work for about 3 months in February, put about 15K km on it. I can't speak abut the long term reliability, but I can honestly say that it was an excellent vehicle. I drove a fair bit of offroad and this little Jeep performed better than expected during Canadian winter. It is not a zippy vehicle, but it did well enough and the gas consumption was very good

2014 is right when Fiat/Chrysler took over manufacturing. So, the 2014 was not a bad year for them. By and large Consumer Reports gives the Compass horrible ratings. Just because yours is fine doesn’t mean there aren’t thousands of crappy ones out there.

@@HockeyVictory66 I also take very good care of my car. I change my oil before it's time to... and I rotate my tires with every oil change. It's not the wear its the care too that saves the life of a car. A lady that worked for the place where I bought my car said she had seen many Jeeps engines blown because customers didn't change their oil when they should of. She warned me change the oil before its time to and the Jeep should last me a long time. So far it has been the best car I've owned... and trust me I'm 59 I've owned lots of junk cars before.

Well, 65,000 miles on it within six years, you hardly drive the thing. Lol. If the Compass is junk, you haven't aged it enough for it to fall apart. Of course, God forbid it falls apart on you. But Fiat-Chrysler is known to have junky cars with junky electronics, as well as terrible designs (for instance, Chrysler 200), and various other problems. You could have found a gem that was made better than most of FC's cars, but, still, you've hardly got any wear on the thing! Update this comment when you have 100 or 150,000 miles on it, and see if it holds up. 65K is hardly any miles on it. Lol.

Scotty, in the early days, when jeep started making and selling, the products were spec'd out by design engineers who knew what made a vehicle robust. Today, the spec sheet comes from the marketing department, not engineers. The marketing and sales group tells the engineers what they want for a product. The engineers just do what they are told. This happens again and again with products that have achieved a brand status in the marketplace. Products that were once well designed by founders with a passion for the product over time are replaced with sales and marketing types who know nothing about design. They cheapen the product and leverage the brand name to maximize profitability. Steve Jobs talked about this. Its not uncommon.

It isn't meant to take on serious off roading. Scotty talks about transmission failures; I think that issue was primarily with the CVTs. Our Patriot has a Mitsubishi 2.4L motor and a Hyundai 6 speed auto transmission; so much for being American made, but it has been very reliable for us over 52,000+ miles so far.

I've been driving a 16 compass sport for a few years now. Bought it with about 32k miles on it for about $17k before all the taxes and fees and so far put it through a lot of abuse. It currently has 100k miles and still running strong. Grant it, it doesn't have some of the nicer finishes that an equivalent Rav or Subaru would have, but those cars with 70k miles were going for 25k and up. At this point, you are looking to get a second mortgage just to afford one of those. Yes, price does matter. Especially, when you are talking about spending significantly more on a car with bunch of miles on it. I mostly do my own repairs and the only difficult part to replace so far was the rear motor mount. Everything else is very accessible and the engine bay has plenty of room to work in. If I had to choose again, I would choose a compass with 35k miles on it over another car with 100k miles. I've seen cars killed with poor maintenance and it takes a lot less than 100k miles to mess something up. If you are talking about having enough money to buy brand new, I would absolutely agree. Buying a slightly used toyota would be the way to go. Heck, I would go back to VW in an instant. But on the used market, you are talking at least 2x the price. For a daily driver, that makes all the difference. If the engine lasts another 100k miles, I got my money's worth.

Takes a half sec to engage into reverse and drive but not concerning. It seems to be getting bad gas mileage. I’m mainly on free way. The car runs super smooth so idk what would be causing the loss of power. Dealership said to replace Pcv valve but I took pills one out and ball is still shaking good.

Had a 2014 Compass Limited for years. I like it. Good cargo case on top, a tow package on the back, deer bumper guard up front, quality, off-road tires, LED headlights and dome lights, never once gave me a horse kick. Love it.

Ive been thinking about buying one of these used down south with a 6 speed manual awd. As a winter beater and replace everything that would typically fail...breaks wheel bearings cv shafts tie rod endsand possibley an alternator. Parts are cheap and the 2.4 seems to be reliable. How long do the timing chains last or are they a belt?

I've got a 2016 and it's been running perfect. Awesome 4x4 on snow, can hold all my snowboard/camping gear. The base sound system comes with nice sounding 10" speakers in the doors. With this vehicle I recommend the 6-speed not the CVT transmission. The 4cyl engine makes it decent on gas mileage, but I wouldn't tow with it. The OEM sparkplugs for this vehicle have short life. The first generation is based on the dodge caliber and a later model when well maintained is simple and reliable. I've only heard bad things about the second generation 2018+

I have a 2014 Compass, I gotta say, they do have their flaws but wow I am quite impressed with the amount of garbage you managed to spill out, now i have a base model, no sunroof, to touch screen, no power seats, nothing fancy, but it gets me to point a and b, the weight is all wrong as well, a compass is under 3500lbs, gets about 22-23 mpg city for me 26 on the highway if drive nicely, now i do have a few components failing, just had a radiator go out, replaced the throttle body not so long ago, but those are easy to replace, I have to get a head gasket now, thats a tad more tricky, but I'm over 227,000 miles on it and it still runs like a champ, apart from the head gasket that just went out, but after I change that out itll be back gaining more miles in no time.

Bought my 2015 Patriot (yes, they are the same basic vehicle) 5 speed 2.0L it gets around 21 city 25 hwy. Now it did have a catastrophic clutch failure at 16k miles. Fought with FCA for 2 months to get it fixed under warranty. The Yakima mega warrior roof rack fits perfectly. Also adapted 18 inch Jeep Wrangler wheels it looks and handles much better.

Scotty is spot on. I leased a 2018 Compass for my daughter and the tranny was replaced at 8k miles, transfer case started leaking at 9k miles and now burning 2 qts of oil between 5k oil changes. Thank god it’s under warranty.
@lukek1949
@lukek1949 4 года назад
c k, Aren't you glad you leased it! You can hand back the keys at the end of the lease. Scotty has mentioned this idea, too. He has talked about leasing vehicles that have a history of questionable longevity. With leasing you can simply hand in the keys, and any major work will covered by warranty anyway.

I inherited my wife’s 2011 compass. While it’s never left us stranded and looks nice still, we’ve had to do so much to it. Luckily my good friend is mechanic and has worked on it for me. It is slow with the 2.4. She bought an ‘18 trailhawk. I think it’s the last one we’ll buy and we’ll trade it in instead of my getting it. Oh yeah, he said to get rid of the ‘11, the control arm mount is rotting out.

Interesting... I seem to see a bit of a pattern here. Most owners talk like you guys though a lot of the online reviews trash it... Im in the market for a used car now and thinking of buying the 2017 new version Compass. Seems like a steal.
