  • Yeah it's got a new engine and transmission, but the 2023 Jeep Compass is still an awkward size and doesn't feel great to drive. But if you have to have a Jeep, you could get this! Or a Cherokee. Or a Renegade.

    Love my Jeep Compass. Runs great and love the turbo engine. Gets great fuel economy and I’ve recommended it to everyone that’s looking for a great suv. #JeepLife

    These days Jeep has massive inventory levels of the Compass and several other models. If you are going to buy one, drive a very hard bargain.

    Love my 23 Compass Trailhawk. With tradein and summer sale incentives, got it for 29K. Drove it cross state so mountains and desert environment and it was very responsive and comfortable. Very pleased. Haven’t tried it off road yet but nice to know that I have options.

      Another drive you might wan to check out is Glendora Ridge Road / Glendora Mountain Road (known locally as GRR / GMR). Great mountain views and loads of fun turns. Give room for cyclists if you go on the weekends.
      If you drive GMR / GRR from West to East it drops you off at the town of Baldy Village. Just south of there is a turn off for Barret-Stoddard Truck road - another fun little 'off-road' trail that is fairly accessible.

    Premium gas makes a big difference in this vehicle. Before you say it runs on regular....it will run on regular but read the manual. Performance is limited with regular fuel.

      I tried both 91 (which is premium here) and 87 (which is 10% ethanol here) and i couldn't tell a difference between them. The shudder that happens in the high 20mph range still happens even with 91 octane.

If a bunch of people click on sound test videos but ignore MPG tests and reviews, it limits the reach of the sound tests.

    Watch the video by the mechanic on youtube on his channel called carnut. He lifts this up and looks underneath. its a piece of junk and definately was not made for off-road. You can see there is NOTHING protecting the underside and the exhaust wlel that is laughable. absolute junk. It looks nice thats all. But you are paying for overpriced junk that will break down on you

    Forget the new engine, I just want to know if Dodge is still using that utterly worthless Jatco CVT transmission in it and other Dodge models. That's the main thing. Seriously, everyone knows the transmission is a piece of junk, and yet so many different brands continue to use it. I can understand why Nissan is forced to use it since they and Jatco are owned by the same parent company. But other brands have a choice. Yet most are too lazy to develop their own or don't want to stick with a traditional automatic.
    Credit to Honda, and Toyota for each coming up with their own significantly more reliable CVTs. And, credit to Mazda for sticking with a traditional automatic. As far as the Jatco CVT, literally no one works on them. Yours failed on you? One, predictable. Two, cough up $4K for a new one (plus labor to install it) because literally no mechanic at any garage works on them.

      Indeed! If someone is trying to get one of the literally handful of least expensive new cars out there, there's only one reliable choice. The Chevy Spark _with the manual transmission._ Every other Sub-$20K car either comes with the Jatco CVT trans., or a horribly unreliable engine that can implode at any time. Or both!
      Imagine buying a car that you think is at least good, reliable, basic transportation for several years, only to get hit with a repair bill for the engine or trans. that is now more than the car is worth. That's just wrong on all levels.
