Summary
The Jeep Compass is a mid-size SUV, sitting above the more compact Avenger in Jeep’s UK range. This is the third-generation Compass, which replaced the long-standing second-gen model at the end of 2025.
This Expert Rating refers to the petrol mild-hybrid Compass ‘E-Hybrid’ model. There is also an all-electric version of the SUV, which we will give its own Expert Rating page – coming soon.
While the Jeep is now on sale, we don’t yet have enough UK-based reviews or running cost data to display on this page. Therefore, we are holding off on giving the Compass an Expert Rating score for the moment. Check back soon!

Warranty rating
New car warranty information for the Jeep Compass
| Overall rating | E | 16% |
| Petrol or diesel models | E | 2% |
| Electric or hybrid models | D | 29% |
| New car warranty duration | 3 years |
| New car warranty mileage | 36,000 miles |
| Battery warranty duration | 8 years |
| Battery warranty mileage | 100,000 miles |
Jeep’s new car warranty is worse than average, and worse than rival brands in a similar price bracket as the Compass.
The duration is three years, with a limit of 36,000 miles. While Jeep’s competitors offer better standard coverage, this warranty is supplemented by a five-year/60,000-mile powertrain warranty and this compass has an eight-year/100,000-mile warranty for the mild-hybrid battery components.
Warranty on a used Jeep Compass
- If you are buying an ‘Approved Used’ Jeep Compass from an official Jeep dealership, you will get a minimum one-year warranty included.
- If you are buying a used Jeep Compass from an independent dealership, any warranty offered will vary and will probably be managed by a third-party warranty company.
- If you are buying a used Jeep Compass from a private seller, there are no warranty protections beyond any remaining portion of the original new car warranty.
If you’re looking to buy any used car that is approaching the end of its warranty period, a used car warranty is usually a worthwhile investment. Check out The Car Expert’s guide to the best used car warranty providers, which will probably be cheaper than a warranty sold by a dealer.
