2016 JEEP COMPASS SPORT FWD

The auction record identifies this 2016 Jeep Compass as having a Salvage Certificate of Title, with “FRONT END” listed as the primary damage. Stage 1 reports that the visible extensive front-end damage supports the unverified FRONT END damage classification; however, the salvage-certificate title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The vehicle has severe collision damage concentrated at the front-left corner. The front bumper cover is separated, deformed, and partially missing, exposing internal components and wiring. The grille assembly is absent, and the radiator and other cooling-area components are exposed. The visible front bumper reinforcement is displaced and deformed. The front-left fender is extensively crushed, deeply creased, and torn, with missing material around the wheel opening. The front-left headlamp assembly is missing, and the mounting area is exposed. The front-left edge of the hood is bent and uneven, with a pronounced gap beside the damaged fender. The wheel-well liner and adjacent plastic trim are also missing. Both front airbags are reported as deployed: the driver airbag is hanging from the steering wheel, and the passenger airbag is deployed across the upper passenger-side dashboard and windshield area. The condition of the remaining restraint-system components, vehicle structure, cooling system, wiring, steering and suspension, engine, transmission, and other mechanical systems is not established by these findings. A comprehensive inspection and diagnostic scan would be required before considering repair or road use. According to the NHTSA VIN decode, this is a front-wheel-drive SUV/MPV with a 2.4-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, manufactured by FCA US LLC at the Belvidere Assembly plant in the United States. The vehicle is identified as a Sport trim with left-hand drive. NHTSA lists safety recall 16V907000 for certain 2016 Jeep Compass vehicles. The crankshaft or camshaft sensor may operate intermittently, potentially causing the engine to stall and increasing the risk of a crash. The stated remedy is replacement of the sensor connector by an authorized dealer, free of charge. Recall completion for this particular vehicle should be verified by VIN with FCA or an authorized Jeep dealer.
