Overview & Reviews
The 2007 Jeep Compass is an all-new small SUV. Unlike most of Jeep's products, the Compass is meant almost exclusively for street duty.
- Comfortable seats, low price, cool gadgets, drives with the agility of a small car.
- Interior is a study in hard plastic with questionable fit and finish, slow acceleration on 4WD models with the CVT, below-average cargo room.

First-time Jeep Owner - 2007 Jeep Compass
By RCinCO - August 18 - 8:40 amI special-ordered a tricked-out 4WD Limited and it arrived in April, as promised. After 5 months and 5,000 miles, Im very pleased with the vehicle overall. Although its not a great highway car (yes, its underpowered and strains at speeds over 60mph and on highway hills), the Compass is great in the Colorado mountains and on back-country roads. Its very comfortable for this 6 230 lb male, turns on a dime, handles very well, and gets pretty good gas mileage (23mpg city/25.5mpg hwy). Almost everything is where it should be, and the fit-and-finish are terrific. Ive read comments about the cheap interior. I dont agree.

I Love My Little Jeep - 2007 Jeep Compass
By docgent - April 4 - 3:50 pmThis car is really amazing and I love the fuel economy. It has some zip in the city and fun in the mountains. I owned a Honda Element for 3 years and sold it and bought this dandy of a vehicle. It rides great and feels like a car, yet has the room and comfort of a expensive SUV.

I love my Compass! - 2007 Jeep Compass
By Teresa - March 18 - 7:16 amI never bought a new car before, always bought used. That is until I first saw the Compass back in September of 2006! Its body style is so unique, I had to check it out. Now, 18 months later, I still love my Compass inside and out! I have had only one minor problem, an air sensor, which was quickly diagnosed and replaced. I get between 24 and 25 mpg and I would say that 75% of my driving is city versus highway!

awesome - 2007 Jeep Compass
By akersey2 - November 15 - 11:23 amIve been reading the reviews that have been posted and I dont know what to say about all the problems that they have been having with the vehicle. I purchased my 1st Jeep Compass in Dec. 2006. The following May I was in a car accident when a dump truck hit my passenger side and pushed it to the drivers side. I was very grateful that the vehicles structure was saved my life. A month later I went out and purchased my 2nd Jeep Compass and have had no problems with it. Ive had it for 2 years now with 34K miles on it. I travel often to Texas from Iowa and have no issues.

Love it - 2007 Jeep Compass
By ron - October 17 - 1:50 amRides better than PT Cruiser. wish the CVT was quicker, and would hold hill. Gas mileage is better too (25) or more consistantly. Wish 4x4 was real full time like my Grand Cherokee, no need to pull lever for deep stuff. Like it much better than friends Caliber.

Glad I took a second look. - 2007 Jeep Compass
By S Nance - October 15 - 11:26 pmI love my Compass. Gas mileage is what they claimed it would be, and so fun to drive. I was looking for something smaller (had a Pacifica) to drive with better gas mileage. Turned out I dont feel I down graded - I love the look and feel of it. Has plenty of pep and love the way the seats will lay flat. Really designed well.

A fun to drive vehicle - 2007 Jeep Compass
By R from Bklyn - September 22 - 8:10 amFor the most part, this crossover is a pretty good vehicle for the price and features offered. Handles well and has a firm grip of the road. For under 24K, the features are what you would expect from a luxury SUV. Safety department did a solid job as well. Side airbags, electronic roll mitigation, traction control, and antilock brakes are standard. I cant tell you if they work, but knowing you have some safety back-ups gives you a secure feeling. Cons are few and simple: needs rear seat pockets for storage, cup holders swallow the average coffee cup (they are to deep and located way down in the console), the side view mirrors are suppose to fold in electrically...they dont.

I love my Compass - 2007 Jeep Compass
By Selena - July 13 - 12:40 pmI walked in the showroom to take care of some business and it was sitting there. I thought I really liked this truck so test drove it. Came back the next day and asked if they would sell it to me. I really love my Compass; nice lady truck - not big and bulky.

Love it! - 2007 Jeep Compass
By KRISTINA - May 30 - 5:10 pmI traded a decked out Buick Rendevous for my 4wd Jeep Compass, Sport edition. Truthfully I cant tell much difference in the performance and feel. The gas mileage was my main reason for purchase. While it doesnt get quite what I expected- average 24 mpg, it is still way better than my past vehicle. The interior is very comfortable. I can fit our two small children in the backseat with a little room to spare. The cargo space is very roomy. This car is fun to drive, and very comfortable. It even handled some very deep mud on our country road without difficulty. I would recommend this to anyone who is searching for a small SUV.

Great Car For The Money! - 2007 Jeep Compass
By Mary - April 28 - 9:46 pmHaving switched from a 5-speed, V6 engine car, to this I-4 Jeep Compass was a huge difference (but I knew that before I bought it). The Compass has no take-off or get up & go power (so my days of quickly dashing out in front of tractor trailers and other cars are over. SMILES) However, it is still a great car and I am having a WONDERFUL time with it....so far.
