If you are looking for a nice SUV that is easy to park, gets you where you need to and has true 4x4 this is the one. I have 17,000 miles on my 2018 not one problem. Still fits my dogs. (Golden Retrievers). It looks like a mini Grand Cherokee which I love. Just a well put together Jeep.

I’ve had my Compass for about six months now and love it! I loaded it with every option and that definitely changes the experience compared with what others might have in base models. Super comfortable ride, amazing in the snow (used for the first time last week), decent payment.

Great Value for Pricing--You Get What You Pay For

Its a good value for the pricing. AWD SUV under $25k in most cases but you get what you pay for. The seats are extremely uncomfortable due to design (although the design is very appealing to the eye). The bucket leans back too far and the head rest stick too far forward placing the spine at an awkward angle pushing the head forward. There is no room for a standard infant car seat in the cabin unless both front riders move seats essentially into the dashboard.... thus an uncomfortable ride for passengers when going long distances. Im not particularly a fan of the auto off feature to save gas on this gas guzzler. I need to refill every 4 days to cover the same distance I drove in my much larger Tuscon which didn't need filling until every 8-10 days. The exterior design is quite sleek and comparable to the Grand Cherokee at a fraction of the price. Some models have cargo mats that change the sleek look. The Uconnect app is not available for many 2018 which sucks for remote start during the colder days. This car isn't going to blow your mid on performance and probably isnt the most comfortable for long distance drives but the design is magnificent, the reliability is great and price is amazing.

Jeep compass 2018 - new owner

I have had the jeep compass limited for a month now. I purchased it from Jeep Freehold. The service at the facility is excellent and professional. Darrell Williams is an excellent dealer and listens to his clients questions and concerns. The car drives great and is smooth on the road. The interior and exterior design is perfect for someone who is looking for a suv feel but not a huge suv. The car's fuel economy could be better but thats a sacrifice most have to make when purchasing a SUV. The car feels great driving as it feels like you are driving a sporty heavy duty car but it drives so smooth. I opted to lease the car because I can't see myself owning the car for a long-term - primarily because of its poor fuel economy. The car comes in several trims and upgrades, which you can customize based on your liking. Overall, I am happy with leasing this car as I was looking for a SUV with nice interior and exterior design.

I’ll start with the like, looks pretty nice exterior like a mini grand Cherokee and LED lights. Interior looks good in some areas like the panoramic roof but still a lot of plastic. Now for the bad, MPG is a joke I’m averaging 15 mpg driving as good for the speed limit and not accelerating hard or nothing and it still gives me that average. It’s a huge lie what they have down for this car making 22-31 mpg. Don’t know what is wrong with my car. Forward collision warning doesn’t even work and goes back to default setting every time car is turned off. Dealer says it has to be broken down more than 1000 miles I have. Lies. Could’ve gotten an Challenger R/T and make that mpg worth it but this car is a joke for $35,000 for the limited fully packed. Terrible
