2018 Jeep Compass Latitude 4dr SUV 4WD (2.4L 4cyl 6M)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful
The engine stops at every stop sign, light, or intersection. It takes a second or so for the engine to come back on before the car moves. This is the worst feature ever! You can disable it, but you have to push the disable button every single time you start the engine. The worst feature ever when driving in the city. Second, the back seat is the worst for adults. The seatbelt is too small, and gradually crushes you as the gear pulls the seatbelt tighter and tighter. When sitting with my kid in the back in long trips it’s impossible to wear the seatbelt. Finally, the cargo space is really small. You are lucky if you can fit two suitcases in the back. The technology is great and love that part of it, just some comfort and convenience things they greatly overlooked when designing this.i grantee not a single engineer designing this ever say in the back once to check for comfort issues.

0 of 0 people found this review helpful
Ok, this is my 2nd. Review. My 1st one, well, I was missing my Hyundai elantra. Now I must say, that my compass is a good suv. I have NO IDEA where all the complaints come from. I've had it for about 7 months, not one single issue. Oh, and it was 117 degrees here in Vegas yesterday, and the a/c was ice cold. The 4 banger isn't the strongest engine in the world, but it gets the job done. Another jeep after this...idk. but for now this is an EXCELLENT ride. 2.5 years later, The jeep has had only 1 issue (not issue). Start stop has stopped working. I always used to override it anyway, so I don't care that its not working. Guess I'll get it fixed just because. Its a pretty good suv, and gas is now over 4 bucks, so, kinda glad to be rockin a 4 banger

2018 Jeep Compass Sport 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl 6M)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful
2018 Jeep Compass Sport (pearl blue color) 2.4 L Multiair Tigershark engine, 6 speed automatic transmission. FWD. I have had this car for only 6 days now. Drove it off the lot being 1 year old with only 12,000 miles on it. Within these past 6 days I can say I really like the vehicle. Overall performance is great! No issues (so far )... Only negative side is the options. The Sport is the lowest trim available for the Compass model (base model), and I knew that when purchasing the car but for the cost of the vehicle I expected to see a little more. The interior is "eye catching" but in reality it doesn't offer much. The seats are manually adjusted, headlights are not automatic, they must be turned on and off manually, and the 5in. Touch Infotainment System doesn't offer anything other than basic radio and the ability to pair a cellphone for calls/media purposes, and even though it looks nice, much of the interior is made of cheap plastic. The exterior of the Compass is very appealing to the eye also; resembling the Grand Cherokee. Mine is the Jazz Blue Pearl color and I love it, very pretty! And even the Sport (base) trim comes with a few of Jeep's "easter eggs" decorations. However though, the Sport (base) is not equipted with fog lights, there is barely any chrome, the door handles are made of cheap black plastic, and the rims on the Sport model do not look "Sporty" at all! These are all things I plan on modifying to improve the appearance though. Again, so far I love this car but I just wish for the price it would have offered a little bit more. After purchasing this I now wish I wouldv'e paid the little extra more and got the Compass Latitude which offers a lot more. But the Compass Sport is still very nice! 4/5 stars for me !

2018 Jeep Compass Trailhawk 4dr SUV 4WD (2.4L 4cyl 9A)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful
I leased my Compass in March of 18 and I can’t wait to get rid of it. It has been back to the dealership multiple times for transmission and touch screen issues. When I drive down the interstate going 80 mph it will remain in 7th gear at 3900 rpm. When I switch it to manual mode and put it in 9th gear it goes down to 1200 rpm and I get decent mileage. I will say that it’s is a beast in snow and rain. I live in South Dakota so snow is something we see snow several months out of the year. I have never got stuck and there have been days where we got over 16 inches of snow in one shot. The remote start works when it wants to. The touch screen will get froze on the welcome screen and stay that way until you shut the Jeep off. I’m glad this a lease and will be done in March. I knew that is was a four cylinder when I got it but I was hoping that it would perform a little better then it does. I would say spend the extra and get the Cherokee Trailhawk.

My 2018 Jeep Compass is currently at the shop because the transmission is shot. Went to a store, tried to reverse out and suddenly the car felt like it got rear ended. Transmission light and engine light on. Before that we had a starter issue which resulted in both batteries being replaced. Car could not go above 30mph, would shut off at every stop. Before that We had a leak from bad seal which flooded the right side of my car, mold grew quickly as we did not drive it that entire 3 day weekend. Before that the windshield wiper reservoir cracked and they claim it’s POSSIBLY wear and tear and won’t repair that Before that we took the Jeep 3 times about a break issue being way to sensitive. You barely touch it and I you get sent flying. They claim it’s normal for this Jeep and do nothing. Mpg is barely 18 and the tires they sold us are so poorly made. I’ve had 5x flats since buying. How cheap are these tires.

I bought my 2018 Jeep Compass Sport with 5k from the dealership.. engine started stalling around 18k and was told to start an oil consumption test.. oil stick was dry when i took it in initially.. 2 follow up visits i was told everything was fine.. fast forward 6 months to having the entire engine replaced due to excessive oil consumption and overheating. I haven't put 2k miles on it since the engine replacement and I'm going in again today( a month after the engine replacement) for another diagnosis.. Issues ranging from - Auto start/stop isn't working with dashboard warning lights. RPM acceleration is aggressive and jerky. Running loudly. Just over 31k miles and I've already had the engine replaced with the above issues + these new probs. Do not buy this vehicle.

I have had problems with the heated seats not coming on, odometer flashing, trying to find a gas station that pumps slow enough, the windshield wipers won't that let you adjust the speed so they go annoyingly fast, the stop/start that is so slow to start back up, and now leading up to it not starting back up at all and I have to completely turn my car off and back on at an intersection to get the engine to go again... let alone these are just problems I have had in the first year!

Oil consumption,Marginal Batteries,U-Connect Issue
NewCsport, 01/29/2020
2018 Jeep Compass Sport 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl 6M)
0 of 0 people found this review helpful
There are always bugs to be worked out for the first/second year production run and now even 3rd year run. Visit myjeepcompass.com to hear experiences from 2017.5 - 2019 owners. FIRST and foremost check your oil every 1,000 miles !!! I cannot stress this enough. Our 2018 2.4L Auto/2wd Sport Model with Appearance and Tech. build date of 1.2018 had some oil consumption. I kept an extremely close eye on it and never let it go down below the “Low” mark. When it did, straight to the dealer, they opted to change the oil instead of adding. so 3 oil changes before 10,000 miles. now it seems like i will only have to add about 1/2 qt before the "dealer strongly suggested" 5000k oil change. Other issues are sub-par batteries or battery control module (IBS) for both the engine and Start/Stop (ESS) system and U-Connect quirks. Some of the 2019/20’s continue to have most if not all of these issues. The U-Connect issues are mainly random blank screens on start-up but working 2-3 minutes later and A/C settings changing on its own when getting back in, its not consistent enough to bring it in until FIAT (NOT a Jeep) finds a permanent solution. The start/stop not working is new and going into the dealer soon. Other than that it’s a perfect fit for our needs, beautiful SUV, comfortable, quiet, 31-34 hwy mpg’s and surprisingly ample cargo room for stuff. Luckily the wife drives only 6k a year, so these issues aren’t too annoying/concerning (yet). Buy with CAUTION or even better LEASE it instead.

We have been leasing a 2018 Compass for 2 years. It will be returned to the dealer today at lease end. Too many electrical gremlins creeping up with less than 8000 miles. First of all, we hated that auto stop/start feature that shuts the engine off at stop lights. First of all, I have to believe that whatever money you save on gas will be spent on buying a new starter before long. Anyway, for our type of driving, mostly short trips around town, it's a pain in the butt. Yes you can shut it off but you have to push a button EVERY time you start it. And not longer after we got the Jeep it would periodically not work. The dash would say not ready, battery charging. Yet the battery gauge showed 14 volts. Or an orange light would come on meaning we should get it serviced. So we called the dealer, they said oh we can't diagnose it unless the light is on when you bring it here. And of course it won't be on then. Plus they said it's probably just cold outside. But it still acts up in 85 degree weather. A couple times the dash said the parking brake needed service, though it was working just fine. Again, dealer says it probably just too cold out. Bring it in when the message shows again. Of course you can't make it do it on demand. This is a Jeep, isn't supposed to work good in cold climates? And finally, while a minor thing, the gear selector under the shift lever is supposed to light up red showing what gear you are in. Now that is sometimes working, sometimes not. Just too many error messages showing up with so few miles. We get the feeling there will be more problems, so we're getting rid of it. Going to a Nissan Rogue. For about the same amount of money you can get a much better equipped, better riding car with much better features. We traded a 2014 Compass for that which had all kinds of problems. Premature rusting. Some sort of remote control module for the starter went bad, costing us over $1000 to fix. Darn car rattled every time you went over a bump right from the start. Dealer looked at it and said we can't find anything wrong. No more Jeeps for us!

I bought my 2018 Jeep Compass from Crenweldge Dodge in Fredericksburg,Tx. last fall. My salesman was Shawn and I LOVE MY JEEP. It was a demo had under 5000 miles on it. It handles well in the hill country and I've been getting 30 miles to the gallon on the highway. The jeep feels very solid to drive, visibility is great in it and I could not be happier with it. I will buy one again when I need to. The service is great at the dealership in and out with all oil changes.

My 2018 jeep compass sport edition has almost everything the latitude has but for a cheaper price. My jeep has the tech and cold weather package. So I have a larger touch screen in my console, back up camera, heated front seats, and plenty of other features that I wanted. I agree that acceleration leaves something to be desired and the handling at times could be better, but overall I've enjoyed my compass. This is the 1st jeep I've ever bought and I got it brand new with 20 miles on it. I've had it for 2.5 years and 35k miles and was hit by another vehicle only 5 months after buying it yet I've never had a problem out of my jeep. After the repairs to my vehicle I halfway expected to start having problems out of it but I have never once had to take it in for repairs or anything other than regular maintenance. Overall I would say this is a great buy with a wide range of options so you can buy the SUV you want for the price you want. I plan on keeping my jeep for awhile but when I do get a new vehicle it will almost certainly be a Jeep.

We purchased the Jeep Compass Latitude new in late 2018 and now with only 16K miles we are having to replace both front tires due to bad factory camber settings. Unlike most cars, Jeeps do not come with a way to adjust the camber alignment which means you must spend several hundred dollars installing an adjustable camber bolt at some point if the factory settings are bad. Seems like Jeep maybe cutting too many corners with this model.

Bought in 2021. VERY low trade in value! Don’t buy! The day after I bought it the back-up camera stopped working. Brought it back to the dealership, and thank-fully it was under warranty. After I replaced it- it STILL only works sometimes! Not happy I looked to trade it in and after 4 months of owning it, it depreciated 10,000$! It’s a gas guzzler. Not comfortable to drive and seems very basic in the auto features compared to other vehicles. Last week the rear passenger door wouldn’t lock with the key fob, until I manually locked it.

I range 19 mpg driving City, around 21-23 on average. I’ve taken my jeep off roading on intermediate trails and had a blast! Tested out the skid plates a few times, but overall good. Lacks some horsepower and lift for it to be more viable off road. Great for the occasional off roader like myself. Compact enough that it’s easy to navigate in the city and easy parking. Overall comfortable but a bit small on the interior. Interior finishes are fantastic and sound system is great as well. Love the trail hawk. Little to no problems in 3 years, 30k miles, only a fault factory battery that failed in the cold (replaced under warranty)

At 36,000 miles jeep started having these module problems. In the last year and a half it has been back to dealer 4 times They said they are working with engineers but can’t figure it out. The dashboard lights up with every warning. It won’t turn off Then when it finally turns off the warnings are still scrolling through on the dash. Tow truck driver had difficulty towing because couldn’t unlock tires. So had to drag left marks on ground from dragging. This is the absolute worst purchase I have ever made. I think what pisses me off most is that JEEP doesn’t stand behind their product. Obviously if your own engineers can’t figure out what’s wrong there’s a big problem. The last dealer Buhler in keyport nj actually told me I can take the car back it’s running but there were about 38 codes popping up and couldn’t figure out. So they just gave it back and after 3 weeks and no loaner car I just took back. And of course it happens again (because it was never fixed). Now took to different dealer and they are working with engineers and are really trying to figure out and gave me a loaner car. I have a video of the dashboard but. It sure if can upload anywhere. I will never buy another Jeep product and I take every opportunity to to tell everyone I know about the issues I’ve had with Jeep and how they turn their back on their shitty products. You would think that a brand new car would atleast last till it’s paid off But to have to pay $450 a month and not even be able to drive it is friggin crazy. I have nothing positive to say about the company They even give you a case manager but 🦗🦗🦗much like Jeep useless!!!!!!!!!!

Why would a 2018 Compass Trailhawk in 2022 need a new wiring harness with a 5 year extended warranty. I love this vehicle but am very disappointed in the warranty and the fact that it didn't last any longer than this. According to research a wiring harness should last the life of the vehicle (Note: garage kept and all maintenance and service kept up to date). Comments please.

The car is roomy for its overall size, but it is an oil burner! A software fix to combat this issue was done by the manufacturer but it was of little help. Recommend changing the oil not later than 3-4 months.

Purchased 2018 Compass in 2021. Has been in shop as much as it has been on the road. Five! Yes five codes causing car not to start or check engine light to come on. Many were "U" codes needing $800.00 a piece computer updates. $3500.00 in 3 years worth of updates! Never buy a small Jeep.

Bought in 2020, just 2 years old. No accidents or damage reported. Since then I've had suspension work done, and about 2 months later it's rattling again but haven't had a chance to get it looked at. It's burning oil like it's nothing, no one can figure out where or why. It gives no warning to low oil pressure until the car dies, and even then once it starts again the warning is gone and may or may not come back on. The touch screen was unresponsive for a few days, it would just randomly stop responding to finger touch. That's somehow working again. Accessory battery went out one day and I stalled at an intersection, every warning light came across the screen. It said my car was overheating, the stereo sound was disconnected, start/stop system unavailable, the list goes on. Meanwhile I have no clue why it died, and can't get it to start back up without the whole electrical system freaking out. It finally started and we were able to replace the battery only to find out that only solved half of the problem because the accessory battery was dead too. And that's under the dashboard apparently and is an pretty penny to replace. The first maybe 8 months I had it it was a great vehicle, however, it doesn't even have 85k miles on it and the laundry list of problems is never ending. Now there are things that I like, for instance how well it does in the snow, and even sand. Ive never really gotten stuck anywhere. There's a fair amount of room which is nice, but that's not enough to deal with the issues. I'm never getting another jeep again.
Would never buy a jeep again!!!

I bought my 2018 jeep compass from Ewald Chrysler Jeep Dodge in Franklin, Wisconsin thinking it was a good deal a 2018 with less than 24,000 miles on it. They put brand new tires on it for me because the tires that were on it, were down to the wear bars. And the jeep has been at the shop six times already for vibration in the front end. Come to find out it needs new tie rods the tires that they put on before I purchased it now, I have to be replaced because of uneven wear cannot drive the vehicle in the rain because it hydroplanes. They said that they had to talk to the used car manager to see if they’re going to replace the tires because they didn’t catch the tie rod thing. The first time I brought it in still waiting on a response a month or two later. Seats are very uncomfortable me and my wife and my daughter drove it five hours on a road trip and we had to get out and stretch after an hour.

Do not get this car. I’ve had so many problems with this car. I had to get it fixed at least 8x within a year. Auto stop/start stopped working 3 months after i got the car. The car have been ticking and was told it was 2700 to get it fixed. Then the motor went out a month after getting it fixed. This car will put you in debt. It doesn’t matter how many times you get it fixed you will still have problems within a few weeks. The car is trash.

There are 3 things that I would mention change or complaint. First of all I believe some type of crash prevention should be in every vehicle! I would like to be able to use navigation on my dash without having to plug in my phone. (This has become time of wireless. No wires in a vehicle it's too crowded. lol) Last, my compass has some crappy headlights. I cannot drive anywhere that doesn't have light provided because I am scared to death if hitting someone or something I cannot see because my vehicles lights are very very under par! I cannot say anything else negative. I love my Compass and everything else about it. But, I am a guy.... bigger rims and tires are required but that's just personal preference. Any vehicle with the word "Sport" should have "sport" tires.

I looked this Jeep up on line with a number of sites and found a great number of people that said they burned oil and had a lot of electrical problems. I do not know if any of this was true or false I had to believe at least some of them had to be true and then to find out that the dealers would not correct the problems. I drive a Jeep Wrangler and I have nothing but good things to say about it.

My car is pretty peppy. There are 3 problems though. It is hard to get in and out bumped my head twice when cleaning the inside windshield. The wipers are poor quality they dont really clean I'm probably going to replace them to another kind. The cup holders are put in the wrong place so if you have any dirt on your sleeves (since now its november in new york) it can come off in your coffee cup as you drive your car so be careful.

Have had my Limited since October, everything is great , but I sort of wish I had the power of my wife's Cherokee, the one annoyance is that every week to week and a half the climate control drops from what it was set at, (74) to LO, I notice because it's chilly when it should be warming up. I have to manually run the temp back up and turn up the blower from 1 again. I keep telling myself I should check the temp when I first start up, but forget after 5-6 days of it working fine. It 'gets me" all the time. LOL

I really do not have much to say except when I bought the cars, I made sure that my wife and I got the six speed transmission. I do not know if this changes anything, The reviews say the 2.4L Tigershark lacks power but I do not feel it when I am driving. If I have to pass, I stomp on the accelerator and plenty of power. I love the ride, I am 6'3" and I feel like I am in a recliner rolling down the road. One area to be aware is MPG, my wife does a lot of in town driving and gets 23MPG. I drive a lot of highway miles and I am a little above 25MPG. I do set the cruise at 80 and the MPG does go down. This my first car with CarPlay and love it. I did not realize how far technology has come until owning this car. I still had the tomtom on the dash and no phone pairing in my old car. I drove the RAV4 and the Honda CR-V and both are good cars they were more expensive and after doing the math over the course of a loan they were both 3000-6000 more than the Compass. I felt for the money the Compass was a better car and after reading reviews the RAV4 etune being terrible and the CRV having oil dilution issues, I felt the Compass was the way to go.

We bought the 2018 Jeep Compass FWD last January, and I say its perfect for us. Love the leg rooms front and rear sits. Technology are awesome especially the CarPlay (thank you whoever invented it) It has a less engine power. But who needs power while you're living in Los Angeles. Over all we love it!!

Love the look of my 2018 Compass Latitude, but....mpg stinks (far less than what sticker says), rattle in dashboard would drive anyone absolutely insane (had to stick a tube of lip balm between the dash and side wall to stop the rattling), already need new differential (20K miles), idles rough, when passing another vehicle, it sometimes shifts hard, I have a hard time adjusting the climate to "just right". Comfortable seats. Other than that, not sure I'd get another one.
