Used Jeep Compass for Sale nearKeene, ND

How much does the Jeep Compass cost in today's market?

Used Jeep Compass prices span a wide range depending on model year. Here's what the market looks like right now:

The Jeep Compass's current nationwide average price is $18,741, and its lowest point over the past year was $18,737. Recently, prices have come down for the 2023, 2024, and 2025 models, making now a good time to shop recent model years.

Is the Jeep Compass a good car?

Yes — the Jeep Compass is a solid choice if you want Jeep character, available off-road capability, and a cabin that owners often describe as comfortable and well-equipped. The all-generations owner rating is 4.5/5 across every model year in the data.

Owners repeatedly praise the Compass for its comfortable interior, useful features, and overall value, and many also highlight its off-road capability and smooth ride. The strongest trade-offs show up in the powertrain, where owners and experts alike point to underwhelming acceleration and limited responsiveness.

Expert reviews rate the 2023 and 2017 models among the highest across all years.

The main compromises in the expert-tested recent years are the steering and handling, which feel less precise than some rivals, along with the higher pricing on upper trims.

35.2% of listings are priced as good or great deals.

Are Jeep Compass models reliable?

Owners consistently give the Compass positive marks for comfort, value, and everyday usability, and expert feedback also points to a more polished cabin and stronger feature content in newer model years. The model’s appeal is strongest when you want Jeep styling and capability in a compact package.

• Owners rate the Jeep Compass between 3.7 and 5 out of 5 stars across all model years in the data.

For long-term ownership, the safest approach is to focus on newer, better-equipped model years and verify maintenance and history carefully on any used example.

What should I look for when buying a used Jeep Compass?

Across all model years, accident-free inventory is solid at 78.4% — always verify the vehicle history report.

Older model years carry meaningfully higher accident rates, so always verify the vehicle history report on pre-2021 models.

Key things to evaluate:

• Safety package: Forward emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, and a driver attention monitor come standard.
• Infotainment: A 10.1-inch touchscreen with Uconnect 5 software comes standard, along with wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto.
• Fuel efficiency: Fuel economy is EPA-estimated at 24 mpg city, 32 mpg highway, and 27 mpg combined for all trim levels.

Which Jeep Compass trim should I buy?

The 2024 Jeep Compass offers these trims:

• Sport: The entry trim brings standard all-wheel drive, the turbocharged 2.0-liter engine, a 10-inch infotainment screen, and a strong value proposition for shoppers who want the Compass basics at the lowest price.
• Latitude: This trim adds more everyday comfort and convenience equipment, making it the best-value choice for many buyers who want a nicer-feeling Compass without moving too far up the price ladder.
• Latitude Lux: This trim adds more premium features and opens the door to more available driver-assistance and tech upgrades.
• Altitude: This trim adds a more distinctive appearance and can be paired with additional convenience and safety equipment.
• Limited: This trim adds a more upscale cabin feel, more available tech, and standard rain-sensing wipers, making it a strong pick if you want a more polished Compass.
• Trailhawk: This trim adds the Compass’s most capability-focused hardware, including a low-range transfer case, all-terrain tires, metal skid plates, 8.6 inches of ground clearance, and a rock driving mode.

What Jeep Compass do most buyers choose?

The Jeep Compass years with the most listings are 2024, 2023, and 2025.

These higher-volume years tend to be the most popular used picks because they give you more inventory to compare, more pricing flexibility, and a broader mix of trims and equipment levels. That usually makes it easier to find the right balance of features, condition, and price.

What is the Jeep Compass's resale value?

Most Compass model years are down year over year, and several of the declines are double-digit drops. That creates a favorable setup for used buyers, especially if you want a newer model year at a lower price than it carried a year ago. A few years are falling more slowly than others, which suggests stronger value retention in those cases.

The 2023, 2015, and 2016 model years have held their value best, with the smallest year-over-year price changes.

Should I buy a used Jeep Compass now or wait for the next model?

Buy now if:

• Price trend: The 2025 model is at −9.76% versus a year ago, and the 2024 model is at −15.67%.
• Deal availability: The 2025 model has 37.2% good and great deals, and the 2024 model has 36.9%.
• Sweet-spot year: The 2024 model has the most listings at a current average price of $20,316. The Jeep Compass offers Jeep styling, a comfortable ride, and a cabin that feels more polished in newer model years.

Consider waiting if:

• Powertrain/efficiency: The turbo-four is rated at 200 horsepower and 221 pound-feet of torque, and fuel economy is EPA-estimated at 24 mpg city, 32 mpg highway, and 27 mpg combined for all trim levels.
• Tech: A 10.1-inch touchscreen with Uconnect 5 software comes standard, and wireless Apple CarPlay and Android Auto, SiriusXM, 4G Wi-Fi, and USB-C ports come standard.
• Safety: Forward emergency braking with pedestrian and cyclist detection, lane-keep assist, blind-spot monitoring, and a driver attention monitor come standard.
• Starting price: The Compass Sport comes one way without options and yet offers a lot of SUV for the money.

If you're buying used today, the 2024 model year offers the best mix of value and availability. If you want the latest tech and features, it may be worth waiting for the next model year's inventory to build up.
