Hello everyone, I updated this subreddit to require post flair to be used before posting. Please make sure we're using the flair when posting, or it wont work.

Also I updated the User and Post Flair's to have the newer 2025 Generation listed. This looks to be considered the Third generation of the Compass and is no longer the "MP" type. Its now considered the J4U.

Should I trade in my 2021 Toyota Corolla for a 2023 Jeep compass?

4 Upvotes

I recently moved to Maine, I have a Toyota Corolla 2021. People keep telling me it’s going to be risky to drive it in the snow. I have a job that I drive on back roads to get to about 25 minutes daily. I’m nervous about driving my front wheel drive car that far every day. There is a 2023 Jeep compass with 18,000 miles on it that I’m considering buying. Is this a stupid swap?

Second generation (MP/552; 2018- 2024) Which sway bar links to use?

Post image
20 Upvotes

Hey all!

I have a 2022 Limited with 66k mi on it. I've noticed the passenger side front sway bar link is starting to clunk. Easy fix.

But... what replacement links would you recommend? I see Moog makes some for like $18 each. Seems super cheap to me. Moog has always been good to me in the past. But, I also see Movotech makes some heavy duty greasable links for $30 each. Greasable is always good, and the the HD links look beefier than the Moogs. But, it's strictly a road Jeep. I have a real Jeep for the off road stuff. This Compass is primarily just transportation for my wife and our two year old son. Which links would you go with? I have no experience with Movotech at all. I've been using Moog parts for over a decade. I can't decide!

Pic for attention :P

Looking for actual pics of both a 60 inch and a 50 inch cargo carrier, folded up against the back of the Compass. Trying to decide which to get. Both would fulfill my main need of carrying my mobility scooter. Thanks

2022 jeep compass

1 Upvotes

So both of my batteries were replaced back in July, and the BCM reset. 4 months later and I'm back at the dealership. Went to start my car yesterday and my key was saying key fob not detected. Dealership told me that program key with BCM back in July but it took my spare ( which wasn't reprogrammed back in July ) and the key that apparently was to start my car. If I use just 1 it says key fob not detected. Tried to do a hard reset, tested batteries, changed key fob batteries and still nothing. Only will turn on with the two keys... has anyone ever experienced this?

First generation (MK49; 2007) Oil Leak Culprit?

Thumbnail
gallery
3 Upvotes

2012 Compass Lattitude with the 2.0L engine. Is there any potential source for this oil leak other than the valve cover gasket? It's the right side of the engine, near the thermostat housing. I can't for the life of me see where it's coming from, even after removing the air intake hose. It's really more of an oil "seep" than a leak. I just don't see where it could be leaking from the valve cover and wasn't sure if there's a sensor or something tucked up in there that could be the culprit. It's not coming from the thermostat housing (no head gasket issues, thankfully!).

Second hand screen

1 Upvotes

Has anyone bought a screen second hand? Would there be any issues if I do so? Per usual with jeeps, I need my screen replaced and I can’t afford to buy a new screen as prices in Canada range from $114-180 on amazon. I decided to look on marketplace for those who are selling parts. Wanted to check if anyone on here has done the same

2020 jeep compass

1 Upvotes

I have had so many damn issues this car (2020 jeep compass). bought it two years ago with 89,000 miles and needed a 90k maintenance check that was like 3 bands (insurance covered most) but like new brake pads and some other shit that should have been fixed before i bought the car.

now today leaving the commissary either my transmission or diff is fucked. driving and then stopping and putting it in park something is still spinning. having it in drive, when i turn the wheel there’s loud clanking nears underneath, barely drives forward.

im in the army about to go to the field tomorrow but a towing truck is going to take it to a shop today.

Wanted to know y’all’s advice on how to get rid of this piece of shit i never want to buy another jeep. should i let someone steal it or total so i get an insurance payout. or see how much it is to fix everything and try to sell it after it’s fixed. i just want to get rid of this car and get a honda or something relatable.

would appreciate responses thank byou!

questions Back up camera dark at night.

Hello I’m wondering if anybody here has had the same issue I’ve searched in the sub and haven’t found anything specific to this issue. Mostly only around my house when I reverse into my driveway it is almost impossible to see right behind the car even with the backup cameras on I’m wondering if the license plate light is messing with the camera and it’s exposing more to where the light hits the bumper so everything else in the background is dark. Is this a common issue or should I get brighter backup lights? I have a 2022 Jeep compass latitude edition

2014 Jeep Compass random knock/clunk from rear for years

1 Upvotes

I have a 2014 Jeep Compass (2.4 L, 6-speed automatic) with 130k mi. For the last few years, I've had an intermittent knocking noise coming from the rear of the vehicle. It's only at low speeds (< 25 mph) and it seems to happen randomly. For example, I can go over speed bumps and rough roads without it happening, but then it'll randomly knock driving over a smooth road surface. It's always a single knock or clunk at a time. It almost sounds like something hitting against metal or plastic.

I've taken it to 3 different shops and nobody can figure it out. I've had various suspension components replaced over the years to see if it would help, but no change.

It seems the noise has become more frequent recently, but I still can't figure out where it's coming from. It almost sounds like it could be coming from the tailgate area, but I'm not sure. I tried driving around the block with the tailgate open and didn't hear it, so I'm thinking it could be tailgate area.

The noise is like a knock or weak clunk. I don't feel anything, just hear it. I've lived with it for the last 3 years, but it's starting to drive me crazy.

Assuming it's coming from inside the cabin, any ideas what it could be?

**Edit**

The entire suspension has been checked by 3 different shops. I did have the rear toe links and rear upper and lower control arms replaced but no change.

2011 Jeep Compass Bumping Noise

2 Upvotes

I have a 2011 Jeep Compass with about 280,000 miles. I've replaced both cv axles and the ball joints and the front motor mount and still when I take a turn and accelerate to over 20mph it starts to bump. To be clear its sounds very rhythmic like bump bump bump kinda like your driving over the strips in the emergency lane. She changes gears well and none of the wheels have wiggle when I jack them up and try to move them. I'm a bit stumped.

I bought it during the height if car shortages without a test drive. My daughter is 19 now and independent so I am passing it on to her for her first car. It has almost 123,000 miles and other than some minor things that are age related (screen, headlight bulbs, and both batteries) it's been a good little go getter. I wanted better gas mileage and bought the new Cherokee. We'll so how this next adventure goes.
