Buying a used 2022 Jeep Compass? Check these 4 recalls first

4 NHTSA recalls · 221 owner complaints on file

Every recall here concerns what the driver can see: two covering a dashboard display that is too dim or whose brightness cannot be adjusted, one for a backup camera that may show nothing, and a low-severity recall for front headrests that were not welded properly. The 221 unverified complaints filed with NHTSA — 11 crashes, six injuries, no fires — line up with that, led by electrical system, exterior lighting and forward collision avoidance.

Before you buy

1. Get the 17-character VIN from the seller and run it at nhtsa.gov/recalls. It shows which recalls are still unrepaired on that exact car.
2. View the dashboard display after dark and confirm the brightness adjustment actually works through its range.
3. Shift to reverse and verify the camera shows an image every time, not intermittently.
4. Ask whether the headrest recall was done, and about any forward collision or exterior lighting warnings.
5. Open recalls are repaired free at any Jeep dealer, whoever owns the car — an open recall is a to-do item, not a bill.
