The Hard Truth About The 2022 Jeep Compass 

I own a 2022 jeep compass red and I couldn’t be happier with it. Seems solid and well made.

I have a 2022 Jeep Compass North model and, love it. No issues so far. The fuel economy on the highway at 100/kph or less is great. The day trip we took averaged 6.7 litres/100 km. The day was a perfect drive day, no wind. I know a lot of people complain about the horse power and say it's too low. 177 HP from a 4 cylinder isn't really anything to snicker about when you look at the old V8's in the late 70's and early 80's were putting out due to stricter emission regulations. The bandits Trans Am put out 200hp with 325 ft lbs of torque. So when you look at hp to weight ratio, this Jeep Compass keeps me smiling.

I have a 2019 Compass with All Weather tires and a 2021 Grand Cherokee with All Season tires. The Winter driving capabilities of these vehicles is amazing.

I owned a 2020 compass trailhawk and i love it. Me and my family go offroading and overlanding with it and has performed very well.. of course its not a big rig but it does the job great and the gas you save its a plus in this times

Just bought a 2022 altitude fully loaded. I’m in LOVE! It’s gorgeous it drives great and has everything I wanted!

Our ‘19 Compass High Altitude is our 4th Jeep product. The Compass preceded by 2 Grand Cherokees a ‘2014 & ‘16 Overland and currently still have a ‘14 Wrangler. All have been/are great vehicles. The Compass is a perfect size for my wife and extremely good in bad weather, no problem in deep snow. My only complaint is it’s a bit sluggish and underpowered for my taste. It’s had a few minor issues quickly rectified by the dealer under warranty. Overall I would recommend. Will probably replace it with a new one at lease end.

I have a 2018 trail hawk. I love it it has been very good little under power but still fun drive specially off road.

Edit: Subbed, you talk about vehicles totally different from other people, I like it. I ALWAYS use car complaints whenever looking to purchase used vehicles both from the dealership and privately. Actually I noticed alot of returns for the 2018 compass models and they re sold for like 10k less than msrp 6 months later and noticed they eat oil and stall a lot.

Jeep Compass is a great car, with a perfect size and force. It's fix really good for daily and trail uses too. Since 2019 it is a new car and the video was not useful bringing issues about 2007. Today, probably, is the best choice in Jeep and others SUV brands.

This was a very helpful video! Thank you for mentioning recalls!!

I have a 2020 Compass Limited and I love it. I would like to get the new 2022 but I only have 13,000 miles on mine. I have taken long trips and have gotten 32 mpg on the trips.

We bought a 2018. Loved it but it was a basic model. We traded it in for a 2021 with almost all the bells and whistles. It drives and handles even better. 34 mpg flat ground at 65 mph!

Own one (2022) and love it 😍

Just got my 2022 Compass Trailhawk 2 weeks ago. I have to say, I went in cautiously, but was VERY impressed with the vehicle. Luxury, fit and finish, content, looks, driving dynamics are all superb. The ONLY shortcoming i can see so far is the engine could be a little stronger. Not bad, just not as quick as the Dart I traded in on it. For me, it is a DEFINITE recommended purchase, if you're looking in this category!!

I like my 2020 Sport. I bought it essentially new back in April with 54 miles on it. I'm at 10300 miles now. Still rides pretty good.Though I will admit the seats aren't like my old Nissan Rogue. I drove 1000 miles to Ohio and Kentucky..No issues. Was actually fun. I also have the 6speed manual..with 4x4

I have a 2018 jeep compass diesel manual front wheel drive. Only 25000 km driven but on pretty poor roads. Overall its good. Had all abs sensors fail within 2 years and replaced, free of charge, by the dealer. The new sensors are supposed to be redesigned. Otherwise there are cheap plastic bits here and there. But no rattles or squeaks so far. No problems in the last 2 years. It's lovely to drive, in the city or highway. AC is a bit weak especially when outside temps are above 38 degC. Only other thing noted is the outside air temp shows approx 20 degC error above actual temp.

Got my 2022 last night damn shes a damn of a beauty. Going to treat her like a queen

I have a 2019 compass and I love it, when my lease is up next summer I'll be upgrading to a '22. Love all the new stuff they are adding.

Just got a 22 and I love it!!!

I owned a 2008 Compass Limited and loved it. Yeah, it wasn’t a performance vehicle and wasn’t meant to be, but it got out of the way when I wanted it to. The only reason I traded it in was because I wanted something a little bigger. Traded it in for a 2013 Chrysler 300S AWD. I just might trade that in for another Compass this spring. As for performance there’s a whole lot of items you can get either aftermarket or through Mopar.

just bought the 2022 limited. 19inch allows and massive sun roof. Lets goooo!

I own a 2014 Compass Sport and it has performed pretty well off-road. The first mechanical fix was yesterday when both front disc brakes had to be replaced after 7 years. Not much mileage on the car either, only 54000. But overall it's performed very well. Its maneuverability is good.

I've heard both good and bad from reviews. Most of the bad has been from the performance of the engine and transmission (slow acceleration, slow shifts). I've checked other models in that class and the Compass seems to have very similar 0-60 times compared to an Outback, the Equinox, the Tucson and the Sportage (all with base engines). Right now in California they have a $4,000 rebate on 2022 models. A nearby dealer has a half dozen Latitudes with the convenience package that originally listed for $35,000 going for $28,000 with that rebate and dealer discount. $28,000 for a well equipped AWD model sounds pretty good. Think I'm going to check one out this weekend.

Yes compass is Very impressive vehicle specially its driver's vehicle n fun to drive n it have Good Road presence

I have the 2021 Sport and love it. No issues, does awesome in the snow. Only complaint is how slow it is.

Excellent video. Thanks

I like this new model, amzing upgrade and design... i would like to have one soon

I have a 2019 compass I actually love it however I was always interested in wanting them to come out with a hybrid can you do a detailed video on the 22 hybrid and how it functions fully

I’ve had 4 Cherokee’s, no issues. Think I’m going to try a Compass Trailhawk next! Cherokees are too expensive in 2022.

I opted for the Cherokee, the 2.4L wouldn’t suffice for me. Yes, it’s attractive inside and out, but looks only go so far. I got a Latitude Lux with the 2.0T (which is a blast to drive) and the Active Drive I 4x4 system which is slightly more advanced than the Compass’s 4x4 system.

Planning to buy the jeep compass soon and doing my research. Looking for a reliable car that can fit in on any kind of road ad my business requires me to travel a lot, I believe the jeep compass will be just the car I need

I love my 2015 Compass, never liked the new look of the 2017 but definitely love the new 2022 look. Compasses don’t get much love but they’re definitely great small suvs 👍🏽

I was brought here by double clutch auto reviews. This review was great as well!

I have driven one, for a day ... A Limited. The ride quality is vastly improved, over the previous model.

I'm using S Limited Compass 2021, do I need to get a lift kit before going offroad like shoreline? Thinking to go to Fraser Island but I'm worried I'll get stuck in the sand.

Love my Jeep Compass Trail Hawk It's a little beast 4 wheeling !!!

I have a 2022 jeep compass trailhawk... screen display doesn't work... like every other month I go get it fix ... it's new

Please provide MORE details about Acura MDX 2016 TO 2021. Ty.

I have a 2018 limited 4x4 (bought used last July) I’m upgrading to the ‘22 this week hopefully! Solely because I don’t want a used one again due to the experience I had with this one (alternators kept going out) and the dealership I got I with🙄

Owned the 20222 Compass 4XE S since april. Traded in a Volvo V60 T8. Can't say the Jeep dissapoints, even iif its a lot cheaper. No errors after 5000km. In comparison the Volvo allready had 2 work shops visits with failing window wipers and Alarm going off periodicly.

i love this Jeep Compass..... an amazing compact small version of the cherokee...

Hello, i am planning to but new compass 2022, is it really nice to buy?

Could you tell me how much the price now.where I bay from could you tell me the place.thank you

I got the 2022 Jeep Compass this color . It’s amazing !!!!

I just got the 2022 compass and love it so far. It’s my first suv so it’s a big change for me

Thank you very much.

Hi can you give us review on compass 2021?

Considering buying one.

I had a 2021 Jeep Compass . 8/10 I wish they could upgrade the engine.

I just bought a 2021 Jeep compass latitude limited edition 4x4 not all wheel drive with 5000 miles on it,2.4 litre engine l4 engine,I'm lifting it 4 to 6 inches with 30 inch to 33 inch tires,I paid half of the new cost and 5000 miles is very new to me

Which model is it ?

Leased a 2019 Trailhawk. Now it has 37k miles. One problem was the start stop battery. Dealer swapped it out under warranty. It was burning lots of oil till it hit about 12k miles. Since then no more burning oil. I hear people say "oil rings need to seat" .. what ever that really means and why it would take 12k miles to for them to "seat". The engine is somewhat underpowered when you try to go up hills. But if you drive in flat areas, it is fairly peppy. I suppose you don't buy a trailhawk to drive in flat areas. I got it so I can go light off roading and it is doing that just fine. So after the bizarre 42 month lease ended, I bought it. Wife and kids like driving it. So far so good. Will need to replace the stock tires soon. Lots of hairline cracks on the side wall and treads are almost gone I leased it for 3 reasons. 1. 4x4. 2. wasn't too ugly. 3. price was 27k. So far so good.

I own a 2022 model in India that’s just a month old. It’s the top end Model S 4x4, the damn thing rattles like hell. The car is at the service center for an inspection and hopefully a fix.

wife has a 2018 Compass, we bought it because she liked the looks and decent fuel economy. It's been reliable and the wife loves it. I rarely drive it and am glad I don't have to. The engine sounds like an old sewing machine and it accelerates as fast as a tortoise. With that said, she didn't buy it to race it and she averages just under 26 mpg. She's happy with it and that is all that matters.

Oh and I had to add on not that it's affecting my model yet but the motors that are in there the 2.4 is I've had them before they were great with the update on it their oil burners so the blog say what a shame

Thank you for the review. Any advice for a woman who doesn't know suv's well? I have had Toyota Camrys for years and plan on trading it for an suv in the next few days but am not sure which is one is the safest, most economical and affordable. I have it narrowed down to Ford Escape, Subaru Forester, Jeep Compas or the small Buick SUV. I'm afraid of making the wrong choice. Any advice would be greatly appreciated 😊

Happy with our 22 Compass. It gets as much as 35 mpg highway.

I have a 2021 that I love. But it is too compact in the cockpit. You can't get 2 large sodas in the front cup holders. I didn't like the automatic engine cut off at lights and stops. We push the button to turn that feature off. It also has the smallest gas tank I've ever owned. It actually gets good gas mileage but has to be filled several times a week because the tank is so small. I love the phone interface and the tech in the suv. Overall though, I love the Compass. Plan to keep it till it's paid off

Also, the other not so dangerous problem is that the Jeep accelerates while going downhill. The revolutions go up to 3 or 4 while going downhill. I noticed this the first time it happened because of the noise the engine was making. This has happened to me about 8 times. The dealer's mechanics also say they don't have codes for that problem and, therefore, they cannot fix it.

I’m looking for better gas mileage than the wrangler.. What is the high way mileage?? I need something good on gas and snow

I want to bay.could you help me

I bought my 2022 compass in Dec 2021 and today 4/11/22 it went all wacky on me on the highway!! The lights all came on and so did the emergency brake a couple of time almost causing an accident. I was finally able to get the Jeep off the road in a safe spot and then it just locked all up and shut off but the lights were still doing there thing!! So please becareful my fellow jeep friends! My jeep only had 8,000 miles on it!

I have a 2018. I love the look but the car feels heavy and it takes a long time to pick up speed.

I own a Jeep Compass Latitude 4*4 2018 , its a good car but I do not like it much cuz it gave me so many troubles like i had to change break pad, twice with in 60000 miles, i have blue tooth issues, alignment issue . jeep is expansive for me. may be in future i will change it Ford F-180 XLT or Toyota Tundra XLT.. just wanted to post my experience with my jeep.

And nobody can fix it it's been in a dealer shop over 10 times for the first lasting issue The yellow light comes on and shows 4WD service and other big problems like Differential and as well as Maine transmission when the certified mechanics can't fix it how can I sell this and get a different vehicle. if anyone's got any Idea please HELP.

Love it

Simplesmente lindo

I got a compass 2022 a week ago, I like it But they lied at the dealership. Car doesn't have remote start, no heated seats, no heated steering wheel... I'm mad, but I already signed the contract. Help

I we like our 2020 Jeep Compass Trailhawk, we live off the main road.

I have a 2022 Jeep Compass Sport. i bought it on September 23, 2022 so I've had it for one year. However, back in August, the Jeep started turning itself off completely, even automatically putting on the emergency brake when I would stop at a traffic light. This happened 4 times to me. My husband experienced that the Jeep totally shut itself off while he was driving at the parking lot at Home Depot. When we took it to the dealer, they couldn't find the codes for the problem. It's been at the dealers' for 10 days now and still cannot find the problem. I will be returning this lemon to the bank if the issue cannot be fixed. We looked on the internet and, sure enough, there was the problem. Many tragic accidents on the highway with this vehicle. I am surprised that it hasn't been recalled yet. How many people have to die while driving this car before it is recalled?

I have a 2018 jeep compass and the only problem we have is the keyfob it dosent connect to the car even if is close we bang it to make it work.

I own a 2014 compass and have had it almost 5 years. Let me tell you!!! I love it but what I don’t love is this Spark plug, throttle bull crap!!! It has seemingly so electrical issues. Which the dealer tried to make me think I was crazy and there was no problem. Like the car jumps. It slows down and lights come on so annoying. If it sounds crazy I’m telling the truth. I also had an issue with my lights coming on inside and out and flashing while car was off. The doors would lock and Unlock by itself. Somehow I came to realize I needed to take the battery out of my key and that issue stopped. So I had to unlock my doors manually. I really hope they fixed this. I would not buy another Compass. Though the new compass is really nice my car has been a beautiful nightmare. It does excellent in snow and rain I mean supreme. Which is the original reason I got the car. This electrical issue is terrible though. Acceleration on it is terrible too. I just Cruze and pray nobody rams into the back of me.

Recent 2022 Hurricane Ian struck Florida rather bad from southwestern to mid-north eastern counties. My father's Pacifica sustained flood damage from Ian and he bought a 2022 Jeep Compass Sport base-line after insurance company gave him a settlement on his 2017 Pacifica. The Compass Sport is small, boxy, underpowered vehicle, the interior looks updated but lacks the feeling. Seats are not comfortable. However, he is an older gentlemen who does little driving these days. It's a bit lower to the ground than the Pacifica making it a little easier getting in and out. He needed transportation and the vehicle shortage is still ongoing as of October 2022. He is just okay with the Jeep Compass. It's nothing special and not a great driving vehicle. At this point it gets him and wife from point A to point B. Too early to tell what Jeep Compass problems will arise as he only had it for about 1 week. It is priced of the same vehicle likeness of other competitors. I've never been a Jeep fan and this is my father's very first Jeep in which he is not thrilled. Because it is a low trim, weak engine, and not exciting, it won't be worth much. I think $25K to $26K is overpriced for the Jeep Compass Sport and should be in the $23K range, now if Jeep put a better engine, then $25K could be worth it.

I have the 2022 Latitude. I’ve had it for about 3 days now and I absolutely love it. Her name is Cierra and she’s this Really pretty blue, she’s great 😊

PRETTY HAPPY WITH MY COMPASS LIMITED ..

On my 3rd. Idiots keep hitting mine. Loved my 18 and 19 Latitudes. Currently on a 22 Limited. Biggest complaint across the board in my experience for this model Compass is the battery life of the Stop/Start battery. The UConnect 5 in the 22 is quirky. The collision sensors on the 22 also get dirty easier. And for some unknown reason they make you manually reset the system each time in the menu when it shuts itself off for this reason. It is ANNOYING.

but what do the models of 2007 - 2011 have to do with today's cars? The way of building cars has changed, before they were designed and built in the USA now they are FCA. A whole other thing

In India they are getting worst day by day as I owned 2022 model S. which has no ADAS and Pre delivery inspection is so bad from company and pushing it on dealers

When it will arrive in uae 🇦🇪

has anyone gotten any excessive oil issues with their compass? years 2020-2021 versions

We purchased this car new in September 22 and it has been a lemon from the start. Airbags didn't work in bad car accident. We were hit at Approx. 70-80kmh hour whilst stationary at road on Hastings River rd Port Macquarie. My wife and I sustained injuries with chronic whiplash and other muscular and joint damage. Additional issues, one being in the first 2weeks of owning this new Jeep Compass limited the paint was peeling off the front bumper bar, the touch screen was faulty, with maps constantly dropping out, app menu freezing and the car was getting increasingly harder to start. I would not recommend a Jeep to anyone as to book in for a service with local Port Macquarie dealer takes about 6 weeks. We purchased a new Sportage GT Line Turbo diesel instead, a much better car

The title says the "hard truth about the 2022 compass", why did I have to listen about the 2007-2014, etc. when they are completely different vehicles, I have had a 2019 with not a single issue at all about that vehicle. Now I have a 2022 Compass and so far is an excellent car, no issues so far, perhaps I can say i have a little difficulty operating the navigation system which is totally different than the 2019, but other than that it's all OK. Drove in snowy roads recently with the 4 wheel drive lock feature, no swerving or slipping and sliding.

Your logo looks like JL wrangler

I bought a 2022, I think it’s nice.

It's a much nicer package now to look at (interior, LED headlights, standard BSM etc) but underneath it all, it is still the same crappy engine

We have the 2018 jeep compass with 29,000 miles my review is not gonna be that great. We also have the ram 1500 with a hemi the customer service has been very bad and we have the extended warranty on both vehicles through Chrysler. Because of the way the dealer have been and the warranty we will not be buying any more Chrysler vehicles. The jeep compass is a really cheap car and we have a banging issue under it since the day we bought it the dealer will not do anything about it and if you call Chrysler they just hang up on you we’re not even rude or anything they just hang up I don’t understand it. I’m so glad that we’re spending money every month on a warranty. The jeep is very under powered it’s an all-wheel-drive compass and the manual transmission. We bought it brand new it’s not used. The main issue were having right now is a severe oil consumption issue which everybody thinks it’s fine do you think it’s normal for an engine to use a quart of oil every thousand miles? Enjoy your jeeps guys!

Love your videos, but the intro is too long for my attention span my dude

I am having a 2020 rental Jeep Cherokee limited. Overall, the suv feels as it’s going to be blown off the highway. Lightweight. I’m coming from a VW Touareg TDI / 2011, a solid Porsche frame / motor version. The Cherokee has a super shitty SOUND system!

I'm really curious as to what vehicles people test drove before choosing the compass. I have a 2019 CX-5 touring in the shop getting some body work done and I'm stuck with this clump of a turd until I my CX-5 back. It feels so cheaply put together idk why anybody would choose it. I mean if you like throwing your money away on junk products that's really the only reason I can think anybody would buy this pos.

Crap car but I still own the latest one coz it looks sexy.

Jeep Compass 2020, I have had this piece of garbage for two and a half yrs and I have nothing but problem

I've watched a few of your videos now, and I have to say, the cut and paste segments that seem identical in every video get real annoying when watching more than one ore two of your videos in a row. I get it, "get your damn recalls done people,” but please find different ways of expressing that thought in your programming.

It's almost funny how you say how bad the older models are at 70,000 miles. Any car could need a control arm at that mileage. Any car could have a transmission failure at 70k miles. This is very uninformative and deceiving. Not that I own a Compass or care about the Jeep Compass, but I do care about people giving the right information. For example I have a Honda Accord from 2008 that recently I had to spent 2k in repairs and maintenance at 80k miles. Does that make it a bad car? Not at all. Come on man, you are talking about 2007 models and cars that are over 70k miles. What are you even talking about. As a matter of fact now I'm going to buy a Jeep Compass just out of spite...lol.

Thought this Was a video on the 2022 model , dude just waffling on bout crap

Consumer Reports needs to stick with rating toasters and refrigerators, not vehicles. Why people use CR when there are better options is beyond me.

Hardly a review

Omg your intro is too long

that Jeep is poorly engineered. don't take it from me . but I was almost going to buy one . either the Compass or the Jeep Cherokee . I even considered buying Jeep Grand Cherokee. three Experienced Local mechanics in real life that I talk to face to face. and on RU-vid Mechanics. all of them will tell me NO NO NO. they are very unreliable and the parts are very expensive. all that because i decided I need AWD and I was searching what is the best AWD Vehicle in the Market . I end up Buying 2012 Toyota Venza AWD v6 . very confident and happy with it. Jeep products and long term ownership is very uncertain regarding Relibitly.

22 trailhawk with piece of sh*t unconnected system , gas mileage sux,

Garbage transmission garbage engine any questions thank you
