I lost count of the number of "That's OKs" in this review. Jeep/Stellantis has got to be kidding with the price of this vehicle, especially given how unrefined and disposable it looks to be. Oh, and note the number 3 as the first digit of the VIN; that means the vehicle was manufactured in Mexico. For that price, at least Stellantis could have built them here in the USA.

Exactly. All new cars present well these days. All manufacturers do a pretty good job with things like nice interiors, nice fit and finish, and they all drive pretty well. The technical reviews are important because they get into the weeds of vehicles that most people don’t think about and things you don’t see when you go to the dealer to look at it. Manufacturers cut corners on the things most consumers don’t even think about.

We bought a Compass new in 2012. Being unfamiliar with CVTs, I was skeptical of the transmission, but I've got to admit I came to love the smoothness and response of it compared to the 9-speed transmission in our 2014 Cherokee (also bought new). Over the years, there have been a few worn parts that needed to be replaced (some with annoying frequency), but the powertrain has been reliable. Now, after 257,000+ miles, we're finally looking to replace it, most likely with another Compass. And yeah, the sticker shock is real. Thanks for the review. I don't know if you've scared me off a new Compass, but at least I know what to look out for. Besides, I think a turbo in a Compass has a certain irony to it, no? 😊

As a “shade tree” mechanic I’ve always felt that mechanics should be in on the design of cars. My experiences with cars goes back to the 60’s. Then cars were easier to work on , starter motors, batteries, transmissions etc. were accessible and simple. Now in order to something simple as changing spark plugs becomes a pain. I’m looking for a manual, 4 cylinder small truck to tool around in .

My first car was a 1975 Dodge Dart (resembled Chevy Nova) with a Slant V6 bought from an old guy in Washington State in 1980. I enlisted in the Navy in 1978, A solid vehicle. Drove it from Wash. to Florida and then from Florida to New York. Never broke down or overheated. I had it for 2 years and gave it to my mother, I then got stationed in California and bought the new 1982 Ford Mustang GT 5.0. with T-Top. If given the chance, wished I still had the 75 Dodge Dart. People generally don't forget their 1st car, especially when it was a good one. 2nd was 82 Mustang GT, my 3rd car was an 1978 Alfa Romeo Veloce Spider convertible bought in 1983 and it was a lemon (Fuel Injection sucked) but when I had it running did okay. drove to Monterey Bay and Carmel-by-the-Sea. Also drove to Tucson, AZ. My 4th car was a Pontiac Grand LeMans. I've owned 17 vehicles in my lifetime so far. Jeep Compass is a bad vehicle ... just as terrible as any KIA.

@@zhila5958 They're not "garbage" per say, but there are better choices. As far as the Stellantis products go, the Rams are probably the best, followed by the Wranglers. Those still have some issues, but they're body on frame with real 4x4, not the chinsy crap on these "Jeeps" like you see in the video. I own a last generation Ram. Pretty happy with it, although it's not perfect. But neither are Fords or Chevys, and even the newer Tundras. I spent way less than I would have on some of those other makes. Only issues I've had on my 7 year old Ram is the parking brake and now the exhaust manifold bolts that are starting to loosen. Not the end of the world, but definitely annoying.

Very good presentation, didn’t change my mind went and bought 2023 CommPass limited with the elite package. You gave a super overview of my new ride. Really appreciate. Previous rides were GM products. No complaints there went with jeep pricing was good. Quality was good and the new COM pass. Replaced my XT four. Just for your information. I don’t think anyone works on their cars anymore so it doesn’t phase me, what type of valve cover or where the compressor is located. As far as underneath the vehicle you gave me a good insight and I don’t have any problems there. I fully understand this is not an off-road vehicle. The 4 x 4 will get by Michigan roads in the winter time. I do think you have a little animosity towards jeep. However, you give a great overview and I will continue to watch your videos. Just my opinion.

You don't have to drive a Jepp to know its trash though. Any US car is made horrendously and are unreliable compared to a Japanese car. The only reason you get them is because they are dirt cheap and you assume the immediate cost savings warrants the gauranteed issues, or justify beating it up till it dies. Now that's no longer the case...they are charging a compass as if its thier main platform....and laughably as if its comparible to something remotely as reliable as a Honda or Toyota offering - which is a huge con job. This car car drive like silk on butter...but nothing will change its high cost, mechanical and electrical issues that any mechanic will promise you will happen before your car note is paid off. No one needs to drive one to know this... just have to look at the history, who made it, and the price.

The PCV is actually serviceable. I changed it not too long ago on my Cherokee with this engine, but interesting to see the quality differences between the two. Mine only has one aluminum pan rather than the base and the steel pan. The OEM hoses come with new hardware when it is time to change them. I do notice that mine only uses one overflow reservoir rather than two that the Compass and Wrangler use. The engine seems to be little stuffed under the Compass engine bay, though. The Cherokee also doesn’t use an auxiliary battery. I will say I’m not surprised by this, I don’t understand the pricing of the Compass. It’s an entry level vehicle that costs more than vehicles in the middle of their lineup.

@enjoylife7030 9 ай бұрын

It's a fair review and I have to agree that the price is a huge sticking point. If you are considering any Jeep though, you really need some more time behind the wheel of it. As for the styling, nearly across the board this refreshed design was labeled as a mini Grand Cherokee when it was first introduced and personally I think it is a good look. The shorter windows on the side and rear though do decrease visibility. I have driven the Grand Cherokee with the V6, the compass with the 2.5 Tigershark engine, the Cherokee with the 2.0L turbo, and the Cherokee with the 3.2L V6. I was not a fan of the Tigershark but I did like the new 2.0L turbo, but wasn't sure how it would be long term for reliability. We have now had a Grand Cherokee for 2 years (2015 model V6) and that thing has been very good to us. Recently we added a Cherokee to the mix (2019 model v6) and so far it too has been solid but too soon to really judge the vehicle. I too considered buying a Compass but the price vs size and what you get just didn't present any value when compared to the bigger options in the Jeep family. I usually buy used vehicles so those are the price comparisons I did, used vs. used.

I’ve had 3 Grand Cherokees; a 1998, 2002, and now a 2011. I had cooling system issue with my 2002, but I also bought it with 150k miles on it and did not know it’s maintenance history. Traded it for my 2011, which has been a very good vehicle for my family in the years we’ve had it. Still drives like a champ. Fluid changes are key for Jeeps. All of them get changed every 30K miles and I change my oil no later than 5K. Other than that I’ve replaced two blend door gears, a blower motor and an A/C line; all of which were reasonable repairs given the 113 degree climate I live in. I run my A/C into the ground. It was hardly unexpected.

Mr Car care nut, you should do a review of a car that comes very close to a car you would have designed, that would be interesting to see what car you would have designed.

you def get what you pay for with compass. In 2014, I got a Latitude and it sucked --- the check engine light came on all the time. In 2017, I got a fully-loaded Trailhawk and it was light years better, no real issues until around the 36th month, when the electrical system went out, but thankfully I had a 39 month lease and was still under warranty. Bottom line, Trailhawk is great but should be leased, not purchased for long-term ownership --- which I think is true of most cars today.

Had Jeep built the new Jeeps like my 2004 Liberty, they'd have a good vehicle. It is powered by a simple 3.7 V-6 (lots of power). There are a few things that need fixin' but at least it runs great and cost me a $1,000. Thinking of new Jeep for me? Hell no.

I'm experiencing a bit of frustration. An error code came up on the dash, along with a VSC off code flashing. Come to find out it was code P0 460 small vapor leak in the evap. system. Of course everybody said that it was the gas filler cap leaking air. I replaced it. No change. Now, after doing a little reading, come to find out that the way to find it is a smoke test. Next, might be checking the evap purge valve. OR, could be a bunch of other parts that could get really expensive. I'll try one at a time. BTW, getting to start a new hobby. Scale model cars. Assembling and painting them. Starting with getting ALL the items needed to do this hobby. WOW, a bunch of things needed. Got the airbrush and modded a compressor with the addition of a reserve tank. Next, a spray booth.

AMD! Is it too late for you to do a thorough review of the 2023 Chevrolet Blazer RS? I have an older friend who already bought one just recently, so anything I can inform myself from your review would be MOST helpful. I mean, if he asked my I would've recommended a Highlander, RX 350, or something like that 😁

@dm285 9 ай бұрын

Consumer Reports totally agrees with what you advised about the Jeep Compass. A great looking vehicle with poor quality build and poor reliability. If maintenance costs dont matter at all ...and your just after the looks, then its a buy and thats what the salesperson is dearly hoping for as he doesnt have to deal with the vehicle but once in his life.

I found an add on of these with a substantial cash back. The Limited trim 2021 after the cash back is around $32k which is way more than I thought. I mean there’s cars like the CX-5, ZR-V (HR-V in the US) and some of the nice RAV 4 trim are around that price. Who would want to choose this one over the CX-5 , the RAV 4 or the ZR-V?

I have 20k miles on my fleet 2023 Jeep Compass Latitude. I don’t feel any of the vibrations you mentioned what so ever. It has a rough idle for about 15 seconds at start up then it clears out. It runs as smooth as the last 4 fleet 3.6 caravans I’ve had. Tons of smooth power as well. I’m a Honda/ Toyota guy for daily cars and build hot rods as a side gig. That being said, I’m impressed with this car! I feel like the one your reviewing is not running like mine

The mat around the battery serves a critical safety function. It’s for absorbing expelled battery acid when the AGM batteries reach full charge during hot days at high altitude. If the mat and vent tubes are removed (thrown away thinking they serve no purpose), you’ll have a pissed-off return customer wondering why battery acid has eaten away their one-year old battery tray with corrosion all over their transmission housing. The Compass sells like hot cakes for a reason. It’s a great value in a good looking package. There’s very little fluff in the design.
