Used 2016 Jeep Compass High Altitude 4dr SUV (2.0L 4cyl CVT) Consumer Reviews
SolI'm d, steady performer
Not flashy, not fast, this little car is a trooper. Good solid ride. Not a zippy vehicle, but it moves steady. Reliable, fabulous electronics (satellite radio, navigation and Bluetooth, plus all the basic) and comfortable. Design is attractive and timeless, we have a sunroof and really enjoy it. The interior is super easy to maintain thanks to the heavy plastic and solid moulding, so hope to get longer life than the previous leather we had which suffered from sun exposure. We are pleased with this basic vehicle that rocks steady performance. Nice to,have a car we can afford and be proud to drive and be seen in.

A hidden gem
I bought mine used with 22k miles. It’s the high altitude and I added my own radio with the Apple car play because that’s invaluable to me. All these reviews have me shaking my head. If I buy a Charger and it’s sluggish, okay valid complaint because it’s a car mad for speed. Anyone that buys any truck, SUV etc. and complains about speed and fuel efficiency is crazy. It’s like biting i to an apple and composing it doesn’t taste like an orange. This is a solid vehicle for the price. It’s a Jeep not a Cadillac so it’s noisy as Jeeps tend to be. It has a small gas tank but I am consistently getting 280 miles to a tank with 90% highway miles. Ride is smooth, seats are very comfortable( and I have 3 bad discs in my back). Lots of room in the cargo area. Rear seat could have a bit more legroom but the passengers I have had said they were comfortable. Rear seats recline 35° which none of the haters mention. Lots of goodies like heated seats, remote start, tilt steering wheel, sunroof and leather accents with hand stitch accents. Sorry but those alone would cost much more in other vehicles. I’m a speeder always have been it’s not 0 to 50 in an impressive time but it’s gets there and handles it well. I pass lots of truck, cars van etc without a problem. Don’t listen to the haters it’s a good vehicle especially for the price.

Wide range of options!
Jeep made a real improvement in 2014 getting rid of the CVT transmissions in almost all of it's Compass models. The CVT was problematic as most are sluggish and performance is poor due to their design. The Compass is often underrated. The value is found in the less expensive models. The top models are vastly overpriced. Better off with a cheaper trim on a Cherokee than the bloated Compass! Older models with the CVT have earned the Compass a otherwise lower resale value. The CVT was paired to a measly 2.0 engine most years.

This is why you are losing to Japn and Korea
I rented this car while my VW Tourag was in for repairs. Mine is 10 years old with 120k on it and I would buy mine again before I would even consider this vehicle. It has NO power, wont get out of its own way, pulling out onto busy highways is a challenge. The fuel economy is terrible, probably 18-ish for an underpowered 4 cyl. This was all of the SUV's Enterprise had on their lot and I know why. I can honestly say the $50.00 rental was well worth doing a review of this piece of junk. I cant believe Fiat/Chrysler would have this in the line up at all. For a 2016 vehicle, it had no USB, only one! 12v outlet, crappy radio that kept going in/out daily for 5-10 mins at a time, and tires roaring at 65 mph and up. This vehicle only has 10,000 miles on it! Have driven rentals from VW, Hyundai, Toyota, they blow this thing away. Out of curiosity I looked up the price and for 26k, you don't get much here. From now on I think I will rent any vehicle I'm considering for several days of real driving before I bite the hook. I would be soo mad if I bought this based on a round the block test drive with a salesman blabbing non stop.
