2020 Jeep Compass fuel economy (EPA)

The EPA rates the 2020 Jeep Compass at 25–26 MPG combined; the 2.4L 4-cylinder (FWD) is the most efficient and the 2.4L 4-cylinder (FWD) the thirstiest. Every EPA test configuration is below, from the government's fuel-economy database.

City, highway and combined figures are in MPG (MPGe on electricity).

Source: U.S. EPA and Department of Energy, fueleconomy.gov. MPG is miles per gallon (MPGe for electric operation). Plug-in hybrids list gasoline-only MPG with the electric rating underneath. Annual fuel cost assumes 15,000 miles a year at the EPA's fuel-price assumptions, so yours will differ. Range is total driving range on a full tank or charge.

Cold tire pressure: Not a single number: the owner's manual refers to the tire and loading placard, which lists the pressures for your exact tire size and load.
Spare: Manual describes a compact spare, a non-matching full-size spare or a tire service kit, depending on equipment; neither spare type has a pressure sensor.
Lug nut torque: 100 ft-lb (135 N·m), M12 x 1.25 thread, 19 mm socket
Pressure monitor: A tire pressure monitoring system warns when a tire is low.

Sizes and pressures vary by trim, wheel package and load: check the placard on your vehicle and the tire sidewall. Sizes from the manufacturer's specification sheet (2020 Jeep Compass Specifications). Pressure and spare notes from the owner's manual.

2020 Jeep Compass recalls & safety

What the U.S. government's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration (NHTSA) has on file for the 2020 Jeep Compass: 1 recall campaign, 143 owner complaints and crash-test ratings. Fetched November 8, 2026.

NHTSA 5-Star Safety Ratings

Version	Overall	Frontal	Side	Rollover
Jeep Compass SUV AWD				20.6% risk
Jeep Compass SUV FWD				20.2% risk

Stars compare vehicles of similar weight; rollover shows the tested chance of a rollover in a single-vehicle crash.

Recalls (1)

Newest first. A campaign covers certain vehicles of this model year, not necessarily every one. To see which apply to a specific vehicle, and whether the fix has been done, enter its VIN at nhtsa.gov/recalls or ask a dealer; repairs are free of charge.

Visibility: windshield wiper/washer: linkagesApril 9, 2020 · Campaign 20V208000

Chrysler (FCA US LLC) is recalling certain 2019-2020 Ram 1500, 1500 Classic and Jeep Compass vehicles. The windshield wiper arm or arms may loosen, possibly causing the wipers to not operate properly and reduce the driver's visibility in certain weather conditions.

Risk: Reduced visibility increases the risk of a crash.

Fix: Chrysler will notify owners, and dealers will tighten the wiper nuts, free of charge. The recall began April 27, 2020. Owners may contact Chrysler customer service at 1-800-853-1403. Chrysler's number for this recall is W25.

Salt, snow and hills: the data

The 2020 Jeep Compass against salt, snow and steep grades

Lake-effect squalls, roads soaked in brine, potholes that open with every thaw and long Appalachian grades: driving in the Great Lakes states asks a lot of tires, batteries and undersides. These notes take the 2020 Compass figures above and flag the ones that carry the most weight in Tennessee.

Pothole season and the factory tire sizes

Smallest factory tire: 215/65R16. Freeze-thaw cycles break up asphalt across the Great Lakes states, and one jolt can knock the alignment out without leaving a mark on the wheel. If the steering wheel sits off-center or the Compass wanders after a pothole, get the alignment checked before the tire edges wear. A winter set on 16-inch wheels also keeps salt off the originals.

What the manual says about oil

Oil capacity is 5.5 qt, and the manual lists SAE 0W-20. Where more than one engine appears in the lineup, the engine code on the window sticker settles which grade applies. The wrong one in a Tennessee winter gives up a little protection on every cold start, and over years of driveway starts that adds up.

Battery checks before the cold

The spec sheet lists 500 cold-cranking amps. A Compass left at a lake cottage or in a pole barn for weeks slowly drains its battery, and a cold snap then finds it with nothing to spare. A plug-in maintainer for stored vehicles is cheap insurance in the Great Lakes states.

Which wheels do the pulling

Factory drive configurations for 2020: front-wheel drive, rear-wheel drive, all-wheel drive and four-wheel drive. The same trim name can come with more than one drive system, so on a used Compass confirm it from the window sticker or a VIN decode rather than the badge. In west Michigan, where lake-effect bands can pile up several inches of snow in an hour, driving both axles is what gets a loaded vehicle up an icy driveway.

Cold mornings and the tire-pressure light

Air pressure falls about 1 psi with each 10°F drop, so the swing from a gray, mild lake-effect afternoon to a clear, frigid morning can trip the warning light overnight. Set pressures cold, to the door-jamb placard. An underinflated tire is also easier to damage in a pothole, because the rim sits closer to the edge it hits.

Filters for dust and pollen

The cabin air filter first comes up at 20,000 miles. Spring pollen in the Ohio and Tennessee valleys is heavy, and a clogged cabin filter also slows the defroster in winter because it chokes the blower's airflow. It is a five-minute job on most vehicles.

Fuel grade and winter reserve

Fuel requirement: 87 octane. In winter, keeping the tank above half is a sensible habit across the Great Lakes states, because lake-effect pileups and mountain snow on I-64 or I-77 can leave traffic stopped for hours, and fuel is your heat.

Each spec in these notes is pulled from the tables above. The commentary on salt, snow, potholes and grades is general guidance for the Great Lakes states; the owner's manual remains the authority.

2020 Jeep Compass questions

How much oil does the 2020 Jeep Compass take?

With a filter change: 2.4L gasoline engine (SAE 0W-20, API certified), 5.5 qt / 5.2 L. Capacities are from the owner's manual; check the dipstick or oil-life display after filling.

What kind of oil does the 2020 Jeep Compass use?

2.4L engine: SAE 0W-20, API certified (MS-6395).

When is the first scheduled maintenance on the 2020 Jeep Compass?
