I am very happy with this vehicle. Test drove the hind, Toyota, and nisson. Likes the cabin feel best in the jeep as well as the height. Others have better trunk room- that was not what I was looking for. Do consider adding extra glass protection/insurance. Rear window shattered in my first month.

''This Vehicle Has Design Flaws"

When you have the Driver's ONLY window open you get that wafting of air flow that make your EAR DRUMS WANT TO EXPLODE. I had this WITH ALL THREE of the new Jeep Compasses that I owned BUT ONLY WHEN ONLY THE REAR WINDOWS WERE OPEN(only the rear windows open at one time). The driver's manual even noted this; that you could adjust the window level of openness to ''try'' to correct this problem. It is a MAJOR PROBLEM when it is happening with the front driver's window ONLY OPEN. The fan/air conditioner/heat cluster is DIRECTLY IN FRONT OF THE PASSENGERS ''LEFT KNEE''. I did not notice this until I had a passenger in the Jeep with me. The passenger seat bottom is ''half'' directly IN FRONT OF THE fan/air conditioner/heat control cluster. My 2016 Jeep Latitude has NO CUP HOLDERS IN THE BACK SEAT. The 60/40 split back seat has no cup holder when one side is folded down. The ONLY STORAGE foe maybe a ''small''water bottle is in the rear door pocket and that is on an angle tilted. The vehicle HAS NO SPARE TIRE but a ''fix kit'' that won't do any good on a ''blow out'' tire. In the hatch there is a top level storage and under that a Styrofoam storage tray that is ''worthless'' when you get a flat tire. The seat fabric reminds me of BURLAP; COARSE,SCRATHY, STIFF and hard. The drivers seat is SOFT AND SPRINGY AND BOUNCY. When you make ''LEFT'' turns the seat bottom ''gives'' too much and colapes. I parked in a parking lot to unload some papers for recycling and there was a storm sewer drain. The Renegade was on a downward slop and the hatch would not open; after sever attempts the hatch finally opened with a piece of plastic breaking off on the hatch AND a screw falling out from somewhere. I am Not Happy with my purchase. I miss my Compass Latitudes EXCEPT FOR THE M.P.G'S. I NEED a vehicle with BETTER M.P.G'S

This vehicle would be great for local driving but it is awful for road trips. I had to stop twice on a six hour trip for fuel refills. What good is great mileage if you have to pull into a gas station like 8 cylinder gas guzzling SUV? Needs a larger fuel tank. Technology is adequate nothing special.
