Replying to: whitejeep (Nov 08, 2009 11:23 am) [Apparently due to my clumsy but fast fingers, the msg was not posted the 1st time.] I bought a 2009 Compass 4x4 with AutoStick CVT sport model. Drove through a huge downpour the day I picked up the vehicle with no sun roof leak problems that many 2007 model owners had posted here and elsewhere. Now the vehicle is barely 2000 miles as of today. Couple weeks ago, while driving home in a very, very light snow (<0.3"), suddenly the dreaded defect that's been kept in the back of my mind happened. For the remaining 5 miles home, water was dropping from the overhead lamp on and off-ly !!!!!??? I have not yet brought the vehicle back to the dealer simple because I read the 07 owners complains and would not like to deal or hear their fake findings and phony solutions !! Another thing I noticed, not sure it's also a problem, is that I can smell pungent gas outside the car. This happens after I back the car out of my gargare and got out to close the garage door. Defect catalytic converter? I have been keeping a MPG log since the day I got the vehichle. So far it averages 23 miles local/hiway, 60% local though.
