Pros: What do you like about 2009 Jeep Compass?
Good bargain.
Jeep is behind it.
Rides better than others in its class.
Good ground clearance.
Perfect for urban, hardpack and fire roads.
Might get another Jeep for myself for MTB and camping. The Compass is a Jeep to use everyday. The next Jeep for myself will probably be a weekend/vacation Jeep.
Cons: How would you improve 2009 Jeep Compass?
Backup sensors should be bolt on with a bumper trade in.
Or have a factory rear camera option.
Use a proximity key instead of a actual key.
Add a beverage cooler compartment.
Have the roof racks more available.
Mostly allow core (exchange) values for upgrading components on a Jeep. Parts is parts you know.
2009 Jeep Compass Review:
Great bargain. If you hold the other makes in its class to the same standards (what other make in its class has a trail rating besides Patiot?) Perfect Jeep to get for urban areas where security and economy and parking space is important. Great AC and seat protection for kids making a mess or hopping in from the pool. 110v outlet is very handy and the nifty flashlight is a nice plus.

Pros: What do you like about 2009 Jeep Compass?
I love the color of Sunburst Orange Pearl. It is small enough to be easy to park, is cute and fun to drive. Love it.
Cons: How would you improve 2009 Jeep Compass?
It gets an average of 26 to 27 miles per gallon. Would be nice if it got a little better.
2009 Jeep Compass Review:
Overall I love it. At first it didn't seem to have enough power to get on to the interstate but after getting it broke in, is doing much better. I quit watching the rpm's and just drive it like any other vehicle.

Pros: What do you like about 2009 Jeep Compass?
I do not have this car but we did take a test drive in one. My husband and I liked the overall roomy interior... My husband sat in the backseat and he is 6 ft. and he had enough leg room and plenty of head room too. We are thinking about getting one after the first of the year...
Cons: How would you improve 2009 Jeep Compass?
Didn't have any. Just the color of the one that we were in. It was orange... I would rather have blue or white or even silver... Cowboy colors....
