#50 of 87 Re: Leaking Map Lights [johnnyac] by farout May 02, 2008 (12:14 pm)
Replying to: johnnyac (May 02, 2008 8:45 am) We had a 2007 Compass 4x4 and we had it from April 3,2003and traded it in on August 31, 2007. We got a 2007 Pacifica AWD Touring. Believe it or not we get better MPG with it than the gutless Compass. We got to the point that it was just transportation form point A to B. We were very shocked at the poor mpg 22 and once in a while 23, and that sucked. I hated the cheap hard plastic that had sharp edges, and it fit together like a it was an after thought. We paid $24,500 for that Compass, and yes we had 10,000 miles on it and we have a dead horse we are paying for, but the Pacifica is a dream, and the comfort and the hreat mpg is worth it!    Tell the Service manager and the Dea;ership manager you want the Zone Rep ca;lled and you want a buy back, and maybe you can more into sonething that is a better fit for you.   farout

Replying to: johnnyac (May 02, 2008 8:45 am) Our leaking has stopped although the final time they fixed it at Tarbox Jeep, they cut the rear windsheild fluid line, so it shot into the car. But the leaking map lights are fixed for the time being. We called Chrysler and filed a claim, they do an investigation. We were told that if there is another incident within this issue then they will step in. That would make the 3rd time with the same issue. I would recommend calling them. We have had it with this car. Still waiting for the service manager to call us back with an upgrade to a warranty. Replies to this message: johnnyac (May 16, 2008 9:53 am)

Replying to: farout (Jan 25, 2008 12:16 pm) Can you give me a website where "Chrysler just announced that the Compass, Patriot and the Caliber are being refreshed ASAP because of "cheap interior materials" and they are lowering the price of all three!" I would really like to bring this to their attention when they read my letter complaining to them Replies to this message: observer22 (Jun 17, 2008 2:06 am)

Replying to: jeep1717 (May 05, 2008 1:52 pm) Hi Folks, Well, after having the water expert look at the leak again, they determined that the gasket on the sunroof needed to be replaced. So, after my fourth trip there, it has been replaced. The proof will be when I head home today and see how much rain has gotten in today (lots of rain in New Jersey today) If I see any hint of water, that is it, they need to take action. They also finally replaced the rubber bumpers that hold the rear hatch. Seems to be better as I don't hear any banging as of yet when going over bumps. I am curious to see what refreshing they will do... --ja
#54 of 87 Jeep Compass Antenna mounting problems by aloeser Jun 02, 2008 (3:51 am)
Hello,        Just wondering if anyone else is having a problem with there factory antenna mast mounting point being weak and cracking the body piant? Mine started having problems some time ago. The mast mounting point sheet metal needs to be renforced ? If so is Chrysler offering a fix?                                                      Thanks, Alex
#55 of 87 Jeep Compass gas filler neck: by aloeser Jun 02, 2008 (3:54 am)
Hello again,       Just wonding if anyone else has had a problem with the gas filler neck mounting just behind the filler door? Mine has fallen away from the body panel twice and is on it's way back to the dealer today. Are they not fixing this properly? Or is it a bad design?                                               Thanks, Alex
#56 of 87 Employee Discount by stater09 Jun 13, 2008 (9:31 am)
I read somewhere that Chrysler has discontinued their "friends and extended family" discount; however, that employees can still help to get the cost down to invoice cost. Can someone explain this to me, or better yet, be the one to help out a college student in getting a new car!   Thanks

Replying to: cinglemom (May 13, 2008 4:18 pm) Please check the Jeep Patriot section there is a recent post listing the specific interior improvements for 2009 Compass/Patriot.   The new Chrysler team is supposed to be either improving the Sebring/Avenger or speeding up its replacement.

Replying to: phillykeyhawk (Aug 01, 2008 5:42 pm) We actually had two CDs stuck in the player of our Jeep Compass 2007. We used two butter knives to get it out. We put one under the cd and one on top of the cd and then pulled, it took two of us, but it worked. Just make sure you grab it or it goes right back in. Hope that helps. Everything works great now.
