I bought this car because I always wanted to own and drive a Jeep, and the diesel Compass ticked every box on paper. In driving and ownership for nine months, though, it's been a bit of a mixed bag.

I've owned my Jeep Compass North CVT 2013 MY14 from new since purchasing it in Cairns (not many Jeeps there by the way, not like here in Brisbane). We drove the Jeep all the way home too. Two drivers, short stops, and it never let us down. The cruise control and CVT helped a lot...

I have a Compass and today the blinkers lights my wife took it to jeep today it has only done 70.000 klms it is a 2012 /3 month they said it is a Module it will cost between $800/1000 dollars I find this car a disappointment and jeeps attitude is we don't care as it is out of warranty by 8 days by the compliance plate but as this car probably sat on the lot for a few months it hadn't been purchased by any one so I think the warranty should start when it is first registered in Australia...
