Used Jeep Compass for Sale in Albany, NY

I enjoy most things about my Jeep Compass. You really have to be a "Jeeper" to appreciate how the ride and style of a Jeep is. With the compass being a 2.4L, it is a bit sluggish on hills but the off-road capabilities are what set this apart from your standard SUV. It's a no-frills interior, but it gets the job done, and I appreciate how they don't steer away from the rugged Jeep brand as the years go on. It does however include all the new aux ports in most standard vehicles. It even includes a plug you can use for blowing up an air mattress with a compressor for those camping weekends.

The new Compass, which slots above the Renegade and below the Cherokee, is not competitive with its peers. Power comes from a 180-hp, 2.4-liter four-cylinder, an engine we found to be unrefined and sluggish. Most versions have the nine-speed automatic which is neither smooth nor responsive. Handling isn't agile although secure when pushed. The ride is rather stiff and jittery. The rear seat is too low and flat. The optional 8.4-inch Uconnect infotainment system is excellent. Available safety features include forward-collision warning, lane-departure warning, and blind-spot monitoring. The Trailhawk is designed to look more off-road ready but the Compass is not intended for such demanding conditions. Overall, other than the allure of the Jeep brand, the Compass trails the competition in several key metrics. I love my car!
