Arranging the work for the Compass

CarmaCars does not do mechanical work, but for engine work on the 2018 Jeep Compass Altitude we arrange a trusted shop. An engine that runs rough, smokes or overheats needs a look soon.

Before the shop sees your Compass

If you have the service history of your Compass, have it ready for the shop. Tell the shop the year, the trim and the engine: the 2.4L 4-cylinder. Mention the trim and engine in your request; parts differ between them. The powertrain to know here is the 2.4L 4-cylinder, with front-wheel drive.

How the request works

The shop quotes the job; you approve it before any work. We keep you posted until the car is booked in. We follow up until the shop has the car booked in.

Small things that help

Wash the underside of the car in winter to clear road salt. Note the mileage when each service is done, so you know when the next is due. Check the tire pressure once a month, when the tires are cold.

Getting a clear quote

Ask whether the shop will check anything related while the car is there. Ask the shop to call you before doing anything not on the estimate. Keep the invoice; it is part of the car's service history.

The Compass and Ruby

We rent from Toronto only. If your trip to Ruby starts in the Toronto area, rent the car here. Ruby is about 2,589 km from our Toronto location, beyond the area we deliver to.
