Safety

Jeep didn't skimp on the Compass' standard safety features. In addition to the more common ABS and traction control are an electronic stability system and side curtain-type airbags. Seat-mounted side-impact airbags are optional for the front occupants.

The Compass will be built alongside the Dodge Caliber in the Belvidere, Ill., assembly plant that formerly built the Neon.
