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 have paid so many repairs on the wheels of the car within the first 4 years of ownership. Whether it was tie rod ends, or rotors, or brakes, or new catalytic converters, exhaust pipe. The car did not do well for the winter because the whole thing underneath is all rusted. I bought the car new in 2007 and now 8 years later it is not going to survive another 2 years I will not repair it any longer.
