Jeep Compass Service Schedule Rochester Hills MI

As you'll see down below, we've arranged a list of various services that your Jeep Compass might need based on its mileage. This is referred to as a service schedule, and it's a way to lay out the services your vehicle will need over time! Tracking your service schedule by mileage allows you to tailor your appointments to the unique needs of your driving habits. Along the way, we'll also provide you with some rough estimates of the time frame associated with the various mileage checkpoints we'll be listing. Following a service schedule of some sort is important because it helps you stay up to date with the needs of your Jeep Compass! Over time, your Compass will accumulate wear and tear, and its service needs will change. A service schedule helps you follow along so that you can keep up with maintenance and service every step of the way.

The first checkpoint we'll be discussing is the 7,500-mile mark. At this point, you will have been driving your Compass for roughly six months, and it's likely to be in excellent condition! The first thing to take care of at this point is an oil change. In general, an oil change is the most common service to schedule for your vehicle, and it will keep your Compass running smoothly for years to come! From this point on, you'll want to continue to change your oil every six months, or roughly every 7,500 miles. This may vary depending on your driving habits, as towing, off-roading, or driving in extreme heat might mean that you need to get your oil changed a bit more frequently.

The next checkpoint to keep an eye out for is when your odometer hits 20,000 miles! As you can see, you will have more than doubled your mileage since your 7,500-mile oil change, so you will have gotten two additional oil changes in the meantime. You should also check in on your tires, and get a tire rotation to avoid any uneven wear. You can even get an oil change and a tire rotation in the same appointment so that they both get taken care of on a regular basis! At this appointment, you should have your mechanic change out your air conditioning filter. They'll also want to inspect your suspension, as well as your brake linings. Lastly, they'll check the CV joints, and make replacements where needed.

In another 10,000 miles, you will have gotten an oil change and tire rotation, and before you know it your odometer will read 30,000 miles! This checkpoint includes a few key services that will help you keep your Compass in great shape, and allow your mechanic the opportunity to catch potential issues and nip them in the bud. At this appointment, your technician will change your spark plugs, as well as your engine air filter. Then, at 40,000 miles, you can go ahead and repeat the services of your 20,000-mile appointment!

We're skipping ahead to the 60,000-mile mark, at which point it's time to delve into the bigger tasks to keep your Compass running smoothly. At this appointment, your mechanic will once again repeat the 20,000-mile services, as well as the 30,000-mile services. To recap, this includes changing the air conditioning filter, inspecting your suspension, CV joints, and brake linings, replacing the spark plugs, and changing the engine air filter. In addition to all of these elements, your mechanic will also replace the power transfer unit fluid. If necessary, they'll also replace the automatic transmission fluid.

Once your Compass reaches 100,000 miles, you will have been driving it for several years, and will likely by much more in tune with its various functions! Plus, you will have gotten lots of practice with scheduling service appointments, and your service schedule will feel like second nature. At this point, it's important to focus on a few key elements to keep your Compass working for years to come. First off, you should consider flushing and replacing your engine coolant sometime between 100,000 and 150,000 miles. Your mechanic will also want to inspect your PVC valve and make replacements where necessary.
