What Owners are Saying About the 2011 Jeep Compass

"Reliable Smaller SUV"

"Bought this when we were expecting our second child. Really loved to drive it. It did get a bit uncomfortable on longer trips, but easily fit two car seats. Had an accident and the airbags deployed as they should have, and everyone was fine. My favorite features were the remote start, heated seats, and an actual FULL SIZE outlet plug! Clock quit working fairly quick which was annoying. The plastic elements of the car seemed to be kinda cheap."

"Lesser Model of not so much fun"

"The vehicle within 120,000 miles and 4.6 years of ownership has been more of a drag on life than a positive experience. Everything from ball joints, to transmission issues, even the sellers were terrible. Front end of the car needed to be redone as well as the rear, full bearings and hubs within 90,000 miles. The interior was poorly made and designed, its to tight in spots and material wise the seats ripped just from sitting in them, Selt belts barely click and the radio wasnt worth anything more than a clock. It looks like some sort of knock off kia but falls apart faster. No space for car seat toddlers and the cargo area is small. Overall the car is a dumpster fire."

"Jeep Compass"

"The transmission died before 100,000 miles. The car is absolute trash. It has given me problems since day one. I would never buy a Jeep Compass ever again!!"

2011 Jeep Compass Depreciation

Annual Depreciation is an estimation of what your vehicle's value might be over time based on an average of similar vehicles. Estimations are calculated by comparing Kelley Blue Book Private Party Values of vehicles similar to yours over time, as well as forecasts from Manheim Auction data comparing current and projected auction values against current Kelley Blue Book Private Party and Trade-In Values. This is not a guarantee of actual depreciation. Local weather conditions, market factors and driver performance will also impact your vehicle's actual depreciation.
