Jeep Compass 2017 Q&As

Check out real-world situations relating to the Jeep Compass here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.

  • What fuel should I use in my 2014 Jeep Compass?

    Most of the references I can find regarding the 20-14 Jeep Compass with the 2.0-litre petrol engine suggest that it requires premium unleaded fuel with an octane rating of at least 95 RON. Given that the engine has a fairly high compression ratio (one of the factors for requiring PULP) of 10.5:1, that’s not really a surprise even if the output of 115kW doesn’t suggest a highly tuned engine. I’d be inclined to take the Jeep dealer’s advice and use premium fuel. Engines tuned for PULP can suffer internal damage if they’re run on an inferior grade of fuel.

    The other question is why there is a discrepancy between the handbook and the dealership. The advice to Compass owners in the US is to use low-octane fuel (as low as 87 RON) where possible. This is possibly because the engine uses a different state of tune on the US market. One guess, therefore, is that while the Australian version of the Jeep requires PULP, the handbook hasn’t been changed from the US version to reflect this.

  • Extended warranty void on a Jeep

    All extended warranties tie you to the dealership for service, so unfortunately the service department is within its rights to charge you. But I've been in touch with the new head of Fiat Chrysler Australia and he says he will do everything he can to help. Jeep is trying to improve its customer service.
