Very smooth ride in the highway. However, a very different story in the city: While going on an uphill or flat road, accelerate the car to 25 mph, let off the pedal and you will feel the car shaking and even clunking. If you can take it, you will be fine, buy the car. If not, mark it off your list along with the patriot and dodge caliber which have the same CVT transmission.

Great car for the money. We get 26 MPG on the Xway and 23 City. Only problem is the screws holding the roof rack have all rusted. I'm talking about a 16 month old car with under 16,000 miles that is kept in a garage. Since we noticed the rusting we have looked at other Compass' parked and noticed they all have rusted roof rack screws. Dealer will replace the screws but not with stainless steel as they should be. Suggest that if you own a Compass. you check for the same problem.

Useful tip for potential buyers: Drive preferably in slow traffic. While going on an uphill or flat road accelerate the car to 25 mph, let off the pedal and you will feel the car shaking. This will not go away as long as you own the car. If you can take it, you will be ok. This applies to the Jeep Patriot as well.

I bought my car from a shady dealership because I was in a tight position. I heard the cars were generally nice and found it to be rather clean minus a few dings. I got the car nearly hoke and heard something crack underneath. The day after I bought it not even 17 hours later I found holes in my frame and my car got red tagged meaning I can not legally drive it on the road. Now I without a vehicle and money as I am currently in a legal battle. While the actions are mostly against the car dealership it’s also on Jeep for having an AWFUL design. The cradle is a catch all for all fluids underneath the engine and overtime are bound to erosion. If you buy the suv be weary and remember to check it!!!!!

Eats up way too much gas. My 7 year old Kia got better miles than this no way I get 23 miles a gallon.
