Which Compass generation should you buy?

2017 to 2021: looks like a small Grand Cherokee

A real 4x4 option in a compact size, especially the Trailhawk. The 2.4L engine and nine-speed automatic are the weak spots.

2022 and newer: the better Compass

The 2022 refresh brought a far better interior and a bigger screen, and from 2023 a 2.0L turbo replaced the 2.4L. Much easier to recommend.

Compass pros and cons

What owners like

  • Real off-road ability in the Trailhawk
  • Comfortable, upright driving position
  • Good-looking, small enough for the city

What owners complain about

  • 2.4L engine is slow and thirsty for the size
  • Nine-speed automatic can be clunky
  • Reliability below the Japanese competition

What should you check before buying a used Compass?

  • 2017 to 2022, 2.4L: check the oil level and ask for oil change records. Oil consumption was a known complaint on this engine.
  • Transmission: drive it in stop-and-go traffic and feel for harsh or delayed shifts.
  • All years: test the 4x4 system, the screen, and run the VIN for open recalls. Read the full Carfax.

Those are the Compass-specific items. The general checks for any used car are in my pre-purchase inspection checklist, and before any money moves, run a lien check.

Buy a Compass because you want a small Jeep that can go off-road. If you do, get a 2022 or newer and have it inspected; if you don't, there are more reliable compact SUVs for the same money.

Jeep Compass FAQ

How much is a used Jeep Compass in Canada?

In October 2026 a used Jeep Compass in Canada typically lists from about $11,000 for a 2017 to 2019 model to about $38,500 for a 2023 to 2025. The best value right now is a 2022 to 2023 car.

Which used Jeep Compass year is the best?

A 2022 or newer. The refresh fixed the interior, and the 2.0L turbo from 2023 is a better engine than the old 2.4L.

Is the Jeep Compass a good used SUV?

It can be, if you want the Jeep capability. Reliability is behind Toyota and Honda, so an inspection matters more here.

Can you find a Jeep Compass for me if I live outside BC?

Yes. The Car Finding Service covers the search, shortlist, inspection, negotiation and paperwork, and the car can be delivered anywhere in Canada. If you already found one, Remote Vehicle Verification sends an inspector to see it in person before you pay.
