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.

Replying to: lhoare (Feb 01, 2008 1:04 pm) So we went back to good old Tarbox Jeep in North Kingstown RI on Saturday of this past weekend due to LEAKING MAP LIGHTS...AGAIN!! This is the 4th time they have leaked, on top of all the other issues that we have had.   I called Chrysler, as they told me to if we had the issue again. After speaking with someone in India who wanted to tell me I had free road side assistance for 10 minutes, I asked to be escalated to Corporate. The customer service was less than helpful. They said they would put a note and escalate it but I had to bring it in for them to fix it. Now, I am not a mechanic or a design engineer, but I am thinking that if it could be fixed, it would be by now.   So, we drove 120 miles home from New Hamshire to bring the car in on Saturday morning. (I wish I got paid for all the time, gas and energy I had to put into this), I overhear the service manager when he comes in say that "this car is just ONE BIG PROBLEM"...no kidding!! So, they look at the Compass and they can't "recreate" the symptoms by throwing buckets of water on it, but they do see the water in the map lights. The Service Manager tells me that they are not going to attempt to fix it but that he has placed a call to his DM and will call me on Monday. Well, it's Monday and I still haven't heard from him. It's raining again in RI, so we haven't drove it for fear of the waterfall in the car. Oh yah, and I haven't heard from him yet!   If they do not offer to replace it...with a different model of course, then we are going to file a Lemon Law claim.   Just to recap these are the issues we have had: Car purchase 2/2007 Sunroof Seal not properly "sealed" - June 2007 Leaking Map Lights - February 4, 2008 Leaking Map Lights - February 13, 2008 Windshield Wipers replaced - February 2008 Leaking Map Lights - March 2008 Cut Rear Washer fluid line (Service caused Issue) - March 08 Grease Stained Headliner (Service caused Issue) - March 08 Positive Battery Lead not connected to battery (Service caused Issue) - March 08 Windshield Wipers replaced - March 08 Leaking Map Lights - August 2008   You be the judge.

Replying to: chrispyhiker (Aug 25, 2008 12:35 pm) If your car is brand new, I would bring it in the required amount of times so that you can claim the Lemon Law. It is a problem that Chrysler/Jeep does not know how to fix.

Replying to: jeep1717 (Feb 13, 2008 11:41 am) Hi John, It looks like I am following in your footsteps. At 16,000 miles I have noticed my first water leak. My jeep is scheduled for service on Tuesday, keep you posted. Scepter2112 Replies to this message: jeep1717 (Sep 14, 2008 4:38 pm)
#64 of 87 Radio powers off and then on without warning by hondajeep95 Sep 14, 2008 (8:30 am)
I have a '07 Compass Limited with a 6 CD changer and Satellite radio. For some reason it powers off unexpectedly (lose all displays and sound) by itself for 3-5 seconds and then it plays again as expected. This happens despite if I am listening to the CD, radio or satellite. This can happen every 5 minutes or every couple of days. I plan to have the radio exchanged at my Jeep dealership however, I was wondering if anyone else experienced this problem..

Replying to: scepter2112 (Sep 13, 2008 1:19 pm) That was the exact mileage that we brought ours in at. Good luck, let me know how it goes. We are still haveing leaks that Jeep can't fix. We just don't drive our brand new, paid in full, 2007 Jeep Compass, when it rains anymore.
