Jeep Compass 2017-2021 User Reviews

Currently own a 2018 jeep compass limited 2.0l manual diesel. This is the first non-sedan and hatchback vehicle we picked up, moved from a 1st generation Maruti Swift with the 1.3l fiat engine which was rebranded as this under Maruti, that car was our go-to for most highway commutes owed to its stability due to the weight and also the power that engine had to offer. Both dad and I clocked nearly 1.2lkms on that do before we parted with it. Did consider a few other options we had at the time, The first gen Creta, The Ford Eco Sport, S-cross, Duster, and Terrano. Test drove all the cars but none of them checked all the boxes we had for the successor. Jeep was just about to set foot into the market back then, spoke to dad about it, had lengthy conversations about the vehicle and all features on offer, and went on 3 different test drives over a span of 6 months, and dad finally was convinced that this was the right choice. Had a clutch assembly issue, with the response being too hard to use for stop-and-go city commutes and also the highways, all the early released models of 2018 got a replacement from the dealerships free of charge. Our car has seen a fair amount of incidents which could have been far worse than what they were, only due to the importance that the manufacturers give to the built quality of the vehicle, this car has seen us through good days and rough ones, but always brought us back home in one piece. Talking about the drive experience is key. This vehicle was built for the highways and it performs butter smooth, after you've touched 5th gear in flowing traffic, all you're going to use the clutch for is to upshift to 6th when you've gained and reached the speed you want to be consistently driving at, and on occasion downshift just to the 5th if it drops to 60kmph or so because the engine will smoothly pick up speed without having to stress the engine much by shifting through many gears, churning revs and dumping the clutch to get a quick boost. Not saying you can't do that, but scenarios that need you doing that will be very few. The maintenance and servicing are on the pricey end of affairs, not so bad that it's bleeding your pocket dry every time you drop by the service centers. Another thing to mention would be the maintenance charges post the warranty period, our car hasn't really given us any problems thus far on the mechanical side of things, ( which is something jeep is infamous for, most people steer away from it because of the reliability issues on the long run) its seen one break pad change recently. Its closing in on the clutch replacement period but, From what our service exec says, The clutch is in great condition right now and we might only need to look into a replacement around the 75k mark, they have been keeping an eye on the clutch assembly from the 40k mark because most of their other users saw replacements at the 45-50k mark. Our car is at 56k as I write this. I can't really speak for the automatic DCT transmissions, but I'm sure it is a synonymous experience, maybe even smoother for stop-and-go traffic.

I purchased Jeep Compass Limited Plus on 1st of July 2019, and within 15 days (vehicle not even driven 500km out of which 300km on first day) lot of annoying sounds audible from sunroof, dashboard, doors (maybe from C-pillar) and now from suspension. I am in continuous contact with Mr. Mike Manley, Mr. Kevin Flynn, Mr. Mangesh Kodalkar, Mr. Lokendra and their team through email. After approximately one month their team came to record video and they accepted the faulty things and they took my vehicle to dealership/ workshop for 7 days and even after that problems not resolved dashboard problems enhanced. I requested them to replace the faulty vehicle they refused. I said the reason behind the request is that the faulty components was installed from company end and not from customer end. Now their team worsen the things and I am forced to go legal

I am extremely happy with the Jeep Compass 1.4 MAIR DDCT I bought in Feb 2019. I have taken in on long drives to Chennai and Hyderabad. The handling is unparalleled with confidence inspiring manners and stability. The build quality is excellent with built to last feel. I have got 14 kmpl in highway section and 8 kmpl in city. The mileage drops to 6 kmpl in extremely short runs. I sorely miss the Cruise Control feature which, in my opinion, is a significant shortcoming. If FCA can offer retrofitting this feature for a price, I will be first in the queue!

Diesel 2.0 litre Bs4 engine with manual transmission offers a great performance with strong midrange. There is some turbo lag in low rev. Steering is precise and quick, chassis is stiff, so overall very sporty and enjoyable on highways. For city is also good but slightly heavy clutch. Main thing is tighter cabin space just enough for 4 pax and just enough boot space. Build quality is solid and no squeaks after 20000 km in 1.5 years. Maintenance is every 15000 km and first one costed less than 10K. Overall satisfied

After installation of new clutch with gas kit installed, Average has been drastically dropped from 14.5 to 9.02 in city average books, Long routes it has come down to 19.08 to 13.09 max not acceptable, Service everything was done from official jeep service station.
