The 2012 Jeep Compass: Car battery replacement

Need battery service for the 2012 Jeep Compass? We arrange it with a trusted shop; the work is never done by CarmaCars. A battery that struggles in the cold is often near the end of its life.

Your car, your notes

Note the mileage on the odometer when you send the request. If you have the service history of your Compass, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop about any warning light or sound you have noticed. The powertrain to know here is the 2.0L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.

How we help

We pass your request to a trusted shop or give you its name. Tell us when suits you, and whether the car can be driven. You agree everything with the shop before work begins.

Your rental while you wait

Keep the rental as long as the repair takes. Pick a car that suits your week from our fleet. Delivery covers the Toronto area, priced by distance in your offer; pickup from us is free.

Good habits for your car

Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold. If the car pulls to one side, ask the shop to check the alignment and the tires. Follow the maintenance schedule in your owner's manual, by time or distance.

Talking to the shop

Ask for a written estimate before any work starts. Ask whether the parts are new, rebuilt or used. Ask whether the quote includes both parts and labour.

Send a request

Tell us the job and the car, and a person replies.
