Nothing yet as the CAR/SUV is new.
I was looking at getting a Subaru Impreza or Dodge Caliber, but I liked the design of this car when I saw it in the metal. It looks rather ugly in pictures :(
Anyway, I have to rev the engine like crazy compared to my Neon to get power, but once the engine gets going, my Compass will really go! It just needs to lose some weight and get better aerodynamics.
The dash looks cheap, but is durable so I'm not that worried about as much as others are. The sound system that came with it is wonderful. The inside is very roomy for the size of the car.
I hope with its AWD that I can get through the PA winter coming. Only time will tell.
Since this is the first review of a Jeep Compass, it would be great if you could come back and comment on how the car is doing when you have more miles on it too!
Thanks,
James.
My father bought a compass, limited edition 3 weeks ago, althougt it's a very good car (2.4 engine) it goes very well, and the optional sound system is better than a home cinema!but the only thing is that if you pay attention you can see that some parts are cheap (try to change the rear lights bulbs ;) )
I'm only 17 yrs old, but I drove many cars and for the price its the best car I drove.. and sorry if I do mistakes I'm from quebec...
I am not in love with the large use of plastic and cheap parts, but nothing has broke yet so I am happy. The AWD gets me to point A to B nicely in bad weather.

My wife wanted a new car and after looking for a few months she picked the Jeep Compass. We just took a trip from Tennessee to Florida and I had no problems out of it when it came to passing and keeping up with the taffic. I love it and so does my wife. We both came from families that always had Chevys my parents started driving Dodge vans about 10 years ago and her parents just got a Dodge van. I have to say that I will drive Dodge or Jeep from now on and my wife plans to buy a Jeep when it comes time for another car.
