A buyer's checks

NHTSA lists no recall campaign for this model year. Have a mechanic inspect a used one before you buy it. Owners filed 53 complaints with NHTSA, most often about forward collision avoidance, electrical system and lane departure; have those parts checked. In Ontario, a used car needs a Safety Standards Certificate to be registered.

What the specs mean

It uses the 2.0L 4-cylinder turbo and all-wheel drive. The turbo gives a small engine the pull of a bigger one when you need it. All-wheel drive helps when pulling away on snow; braking and steering still depend on the tires.

It is rated at 8.8 L/100 km combined; 300 km takes about 26 litres. Expect about $13.64 per 100 km at our price setting. The EPA estimates US$2,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles.

Who the Compass suits

It suits a weekend away when the train does not reach where you are going. It suits a stretch of weeks between selling one car and buying the next.

Living with the Compass

An SUV body means more headroom and a taller cargo opening than a car of the same length.

Drive it on your own roads

If it is in our fleet, rent it; if not, a similar car gives you a feel for the class. A week with the Compass answers more than any brochure. A test week in the Compass tells you more than any review.

Choosing the right one

A newer year is not always better; check what changed before paying more for it. Decide what matters most first: fuel use, space, or the price you can pay. If you are unsure between two options, rent one of them for a week first.

Money matters

The EPA estimates US$2,500 a year in fuel for 15,000 miles at US prices. Get an insurance quote for this exact model before you buy; rates differ a lot between models. Tires, brakes and batteries are the regular costs to budget for beyond fuel.
