Your new Ellwood City Jeep Compass is an icon in the making. Often compared to a vehicle that should star in a movie titled "Honey, I shrunk the Jeep Grand Cherokee." Properly maintained, it's good for years and miles of service on the road ahead. And that's just it. There is no getting around it, your new Ellwood City Jeep Compass needs proper service and the professional Mechanics at Ellwood City Chrysler Dodge Jeep and Ram stand ready to assist your Jeep's needs.

Designed for years of trouble free service, your Jeep Compass has definitive needs that will enhance your vehicle ownership. Follow along for a look at a service schedule that is tailored specifically for your Jeep Compass.


    
Keeping It Simple: Power comes from a single engine to keep service costs down. You can order it any way you like, but your Jeep Compass is powered by a single engine: The FCA 2.4-liter Tigershark four-cylinder engine. It is coupled to the brand's six-speed manual or six-speed automatic transmission sending power to the front wheels. Details on the Tigershark MultiAir engine and its service schedule are included inside the Jeep Compass Owner's Manual. For further details please contact your Ellwood City Jeep Compass service advisor or simply check the Google machine for "Mechanics Near Me."

Filtration: Fuel, Air and Water are the basic ingredients needed to keep your Jeep Compass running like new. That, and following the Jeep Owner's Manual service schedule. One of the key items is making sure you have a clean air filter so your 2.4 TigerShark can breathe freely. When you think about it, the engine, wants to breathe freely just like we do. That's why a clean filter is so important to catch dust, dirt and debris, before it has a chance to get inside to create a little mayhem. Expect to get approximately 50,000 miles of life from each filter. Your Ellwood City Jeeps parts and service department will always have them in stock. Call or visit for a replacement today. 

Coolant, Fluids and More: There's more than just motor oil running around inside your Ellwood City Jeep Compass. Power Steering Fluid, Transmission Fluid, Brake Fluid, Wiper Fluid, Coolant, and more are all doing their part to make sure your Jeep sees more of the road than the repair bay. All are instrumental in making sure your Jeep Compass is operating at peak efficiency for many years of reliable service. Occasionally, they will evaporate, get used up or even need topping off. Stop by your Ellwood City Parts and Service Department. They will be happy to see you!

Seal tricks:  The engine in your Ellwood City Jeep Compass is mated to a permanently sealed six-speed automatic transmission or six-speed manual unit good for approximately 100,000 miles of service. Still, your Jeep owner's manual's service schedule suggests checking its fluid level once a month to make sure it is topped off for best performance. If your Compass sees more strenuous duty like high-speed or mountainous driving, check with your Jeep mechanic in Ellwood City or your Jeep Compass owner's manual for more information.

Rotors, Brake Pads, Linings and More: Probably just as important as gas in the tank of your Jeep Compass to make it go, Brakes Pads and rotors are there to make it stop. These and other parts are all critical components that are in place to safely stop your Jeep Compass. Have your Ellwood City Jeep Mechanic check them every time you have your oil changed, so they will be fresh and ready when needed. It's also a good time to have him check the parking brake functions as well. Contact your Ellwood City CDJR Service Advisor, who will be happy to inspect the braking system during your next oil change.

Oil and Filters: Oil and Oil Filters are the blood and kidneys, of the internal combustion engine. Making sure you have fresh oil and a new oil filter will go a long way in keeping your Jeep Compass out of the repair bay at Ellwood City Jeep. While the oil is pumped around within the TigerShark engine, the oil filter, as its name implies, filters the oil as it flows through. Work with us here!

With your Jeep likely being used in stressful stop and go city traffic, high-speed Interstate runs and sitting idly by while making deliveries, it needs an oil that won't break down under duress. That's why your Ellwood City Mechanic recommends a Mopar-Approved high-quality Conventional or Synthetic Motor Oil.

Not sure when it's time for a change? The Jeep Compass's Automatic Oil Change Indicator System will alert you. That could be in as little as 3,500-miles under heavy loads or as long as 7,500 in other situations. Sometimes an oil change may totally slip your mind, but according to the Compass's service schedule, you can go as long as 10,000 miles or one year (although we would not push it that long) whichever occurs first. Your Ellwood City Jeep Chrysler Dodge and Ram mechanics will also be happy to advise you further.

Windshield Wipers: Having worn out windshield wipers is almost as bad as having oily fingerprint smudges on your eyeglasses. There's nothing like a sparkling clean windshield that lets you take on the world. There's also nothing as annoying as a worn out wiper blade. Due to high humidity, heat and conversely, extreme cold temperatures and UV exposure, there are too many factors trying to step in to help cut your wiper's life short. The Elwood City Jeep Compass parts and service center offers many Mopar-approved replacement wipers that will have you seeing clearly up the road ahead. We recommend making a service schedule to replace them every six months.



Spark Plugs and Batteries: Like a little bit of Sriracha sauce, spark plugs add a bit of a spark to the MultiAir TigerShark engine that motivate your Jeep Compass. Though they typically last for 100,000-miles, they occasionally lose their potency. The same with Batteries. Humidity and heat can take a toll causing them to wear out, quit working, move to Florida from Pennsylvania and retire.  Well maybe they don't go to Florida, opting for Arizona, instead. Regardless, you get the drift. But not to worry: The Ellwood City Jeep Parts and Service Department offers Mopar-Approved replacement batteries, spark plugs and other crucial parts for the entire Ram Commercial line. Your Ram Truck Owner's Manual service schedule and Ellwood City service mechanic can offer more extensive details as well.


All-Wheel-Alignment: Does your Jeep Compass appear destined to routinely steer left or right rather than going straight up the road? If so, you or your Jeep is probably in need of a severe alignment. The same thing if your Jeep Compass dives left or right while braking. Such misbehavior can lead to premature tire wear. Properly diagnosed and realigned, your Compass should get equal tire wear at all four corners. A Napleton Pro Tip: Always balance and rotate your tires before checking in for an alignment. That way, tire wear should equalize at all four corners. I mean, c'mon! Have you seen the price of tires lately? Finally, consult your owner's manual and your Ellwood City Jeep Service Advisor for more information.
