2016 JEEP COMPASS SPORT 4X4

The auction record lists the vehicle as having a salvage certificate, with SIDE identified as the primary damage. The visible photos show substantial side collision damage, supporting the SIDE damage classification; however, the salvage-certificate status cannot be confirmed from exterior photos. The most significant damage is on the passenger-side rear door and adjacent rear quarter panel. These areas have multiple deep creases, broad deformation, crushing, and abrasions, with orange-colored material exposed near the wheel opening. The rocker panel beneath the rear door is extensively scraped, scuffed, and visibly deformed. Additional dents and horizontal abrasions are present on the rear portions of the side doors and lower side body. At the front, one lower fog-lamp area has an open dark aperture, with the lamp assembly or surrounding trim not visible. The visible headlamp lenses also appear cloudy and yellowed, indicating cosmetic deterioration. According to the NHTSA VIN decode, this is a 2016 Jeep Compass Sport trim SUV with four-wheel drive, a 2.4-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and a left-hand-drive configuration. It was manufactured by FCA US LLC at the Belvidere Assembly plant in the United States. One NHTSA safety recall is listed for certain 2016 Jeep Compass vehicles manufactured from May 9, 2016, through July 15, 2016. Recall 16V907000 concerns an intermittently operating crankshaft or camshaft sensor connector, which may cause the engine to stall. The listed remedy is replacement of the connector by a dealer at no charge. The vehicle’s individual recall applicability and repair status should be verified by VIN with an authorized Jeep dealer.
