Used Jeep Compass for Sale

I purchased my 2011 Jeep Compass new in the fall of 2011. I had researched several smaller SUV type vehicles with 4 Wheel drive, and most were very expensive. The Jeep Compass came with all the bells and whistles for a much more reasonable price. I was concerned about the quality of the interior, since previous Compass models had bad reviews regarding the appointments. However, upon test driving the car, I found it very well appointed and the interior to be very comfortable as well as pleasing to the eye. The 4 cylinder engine has lots of pep, it rides nicely, very smooth and can handle even the toughest of weather. The exterior is also pleasing to the eye, the SUV looks more like a blown up station wagon vs. a jeep, but it still has that Jeep look in the front end. Overall, it's been a very reliable vehicle.

I like my Jeep Compass for many reasons. I like the power behind the engine. I like that off road features. It handles well in bad weather. And its very stylish.

I bought this vehicle thinking it would be well built, with the Jeep name on it. So far I have had many problems and not too many compliments. I like the sound system in it. There is a speaker built into the back hatch, so that when you open the hatch, the sound will be amplified outside (drive in theaters, BBQs, etc.). I like the moon roof and the leather trim package. I also like that it tells you if the tires are low on air. Beyond those few things though, I have had problems with the driver's side door hinge rusting and breaking. One of the back door window motors broke. If I drive around a corner, while also hitting a pothole, the car will automatically switch to the auto-stick transmission function. This is a huge safety concern. The car also takes an extra few moments to fire up while starting. I have had it checked by many mechanics and they cannot figure out why it does that. This is very frustrating. I also find that the engine runs very loud.
