2016 JEEP COMPASS SPORT 4X4

The auction records identify this 2016 Jeep Compass as having a salvage title and list “SIDE” as the primary damage classification. Stage 1 reports that the visible evidence supports the SIDE classification, with extensive damage on the left-side doors, rocker molding, and adjacent front-fender area. However, the salvage-title status cannot be confirmed or contradicted from exterior evidence alone. The left rear door has broad, shallow deformation, multiple horizontal scratches, and dark paint-transfer marks across the middle and lower sections. Similar scraping, transfer marks, and shallow deformation are present on the left front door, with damage extending across the visible left-side door exterior. The lower rear portion of the left front fender is scraped and deformed near the front-door edge. The black left rocker-panel molding is scraped, has an irregular lower edge, and appears separated from portions of the adjacent body panel. A small brown-orange corrosion spot is visible along the lower left rear-quarter/rocker area. These findings indicate that body and trim repair, refinishing, and corrosion treatment may be required. No mechanical or underbody findings were provided. According to the VIN decode, this is a U.S.-built Sport-trim SUV with four-wheel drive, a 2.4-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and left-hand drive. The vehicle was manufactured by FCA US LLC at the Belvidere Assembly plant in Illinois. One NHTSA recall is listed for this model year: recall 16V907000 concerns intermittent crankshaft or camshaft sensor operation, which may cause the engine to stall and increase crash risk. The stated remedy is replacement of the sensor connector by an authorized dealer at no charge. Recall completion should be verified by VIN before purchase.
