2020 Jeep Compass Review: Comfortable Small SUV With Improved Reliability From Earlier Years

Disappointed on August 13, 2024

Terrible. Needed new Motor at 56k miles. Not a smooth ride. Now throwing random check engine lights every other week. In the shop constantly. Gonna trade once it gets out of the shop.

I purchased my Jeep in August 2020. Had the rack & pinion, intermediate shaft and sway bar links replaced in April 2022. The right sway bar link needs to be replaced again!

Great little SUV, nice options as good as a more expensive luxury car. Smooth ride and very comfortable. I'd recommend this Jeep to anyone wanting a smaller SUV

Great driving experience with this truck but not good on gas Basically use my car to commute from home to work and groceries shopping And taking my mom To her appointments

I didn't think I'd ever love an SUV like I did my cars until I drove this one. I love the state of art everything! It's also quite sharp looking too.

I purchased the car in January 2020, the transmission went out in August 2020, can not repair this transmission, they do not sell parts you have to purchase a new transmission, took it to the dealer, they contacted Chrysler directly, would not help pay for any of it since I had it such a short time, dealer thought they may give me some reimbursement told me nothing they could do! I ended up paying out of pocket 4,800, and that was from a discount at the dealership, if your looking for a car you can repair the transmission if it goes bad, do not purchase this car!

So far only having it for 3 hours it's pretty good. Like the color, drives nice and handles okay. Thank you for your service. This is my second purchase and look forward to future purchases.

Better than I expected. Love it! Has great gas mileage. Nice leather interior. Never owned a compass jeep. Will buy another one! Best car I have ever had!

Perform for family commuting off reading fishing and camping. Perfect for desert riding and mountain climbing and driving to and from work also. Will keep for 10 plus years.
