Sounds like The compass will hang around a while longer.
Seems like a lot of changes for two years but that is a good thing.bethlumboy said:Replacement seems to due CY2015, along with Grand Wagoneer, so two years of the updated model before the CUSW version. B-Jeep in CY2014.
with the exception of the 6speed automatic. There really was very little in changes. the interior has some upgrades and no sheet metal changes headlight upgrade and paint on the mirrors. http://www.jeep.com/en/2014/compass/Jackratchett said:Seems like a lot of changes for two years but that is a good thing.
Wasn't that something that had really bugged the crud out of you? Lack of body paint mirrors? If so, that's good to hear.CJDsalespro said:with the exception of the 6speed automatic.

The Compass I saw at the NAIAS had a lot of really nice interior features and accents.bumonbox said:Wasn't that something that had really bugged the crud out of you? Lack of body paint mirrors? If so, that's good to hear.
I don't know what the interior upgrades are, but I feel like, and you can correct me if I am wrong - that while the Compass still isn't a great competitor, that these tweaks should help to address some of it's additional short comings, and make it a more viable option.
It isn't going to knock anyone's socks off, but will keep it selling. I wonder if there are any added improvements to reduce NVH.
I think so...Mike V. said:Wasn't this Already debuted in Detroit.
Good memory RE: the painted mirrors....that indeed has been a pet peeve of mine since it came out. The addition of the 6speed tranny will def help with NVH. Dont get me wrong I love the the tweaks....I just think calling it "new" is a major strech.bumonbox said:Wasn't that something that had really bugged the crud out of you? Lack of body paint mirrors?

While the Jatco CVT was hardly a fan favorite, overall it was an excellent transmission with great reliability and little warranty costs.Bionicrooster said:Now that is has a real transmission, its not that bad of a vehicle. I will actually cross shop that this year when we buy a new car for the wife.
Yea that ugly Compass looks like a Nissan or Honda to me.....not a Jeep...lol :frusty:unverferth said:Wonder why the Compass survives and not the Patriot ?
To me...... at least the Patriot looks like a Jeep
Patriot isn't going anywhere for awhile...unverferth said:Wonder why the Compass survives and not the Patriot ?
I agree with Mike.Mike V. said:While the Jatco CVT was hardly a fan favorite, overall it was an excellent transmission with great reliability and little warranty costs.
We can call it names all day long, but it was not and is not a bad transmission.
And it is a "real" transmission.
