2017 JEEP COMPASS TRAILHAWK 4X4

This 2017 Jeep Compass is listed with a salvage certificate of title and a FRONT END primary-damage designation. The provided Stage 1 assessment states that the visible front-end collision damage supports the FRONT END code; however, the salvage-certificate title status cannot be confirmed from photographs. The visible damage is concentrated at the left front corner and includes a severely fractured left headlamp assembly, with broken lens and housing sections and open areas around the lamp. The left front fender is creased and deformed around the headlamp, front corner, and wheel arch. The left side of the front bumper cover and adjacent black wheel-arch trim are detached, with a long trim section hanging beside the left front wheel. The front bumper assembly has extensive cracking, tearing, separation, and displacement, and the lower section is hanging away from the vehicle with components visible behind it. The left front edge of the hood is also deformed, with an uneven raised gap where it meets the damaged fender and headlamp. Multiple cracks and fractured areas are visible in the upper-left portion of the windshield. The driver’s steering-wheel airbag and front passenger dashboard airbag are visibly deployed. The condition of the underlying front-end structure, cooling and lighting components, suspension, wheel and tire, wiring, restraint-system components, and electronic safety systems should be confirmed through a physical inspection and diagnostic scan before purchase. The vehicle should not be considered roadworthy until the collision repairs and airbag-system repairs have been properly completed and verified. According to the VIN decode, this is a left-hand-drive Trailhawk Sport Utility Vehicle with four-wheel drive, a 2.4-liter four-cylinder gasoline engine, and seating for five. It was manufactured by Chrysler de Mexico at the Toluca Assembly plant in Mexico. The transmission type is not provided. NHTSA records list several recalls associated with the 2017 Jeep Compass. Campaign 17V740000 concerns instrument-cluster backlighting that may not be adjustable and may reduce nighttime visibility; the stated remedy is an instrument-cluster software update. Campaign 17V301000 applies to vehicles equipped with a six-speed transmission and concerns possible improper engagement or failure of the left front halfshaft, which could cause loss of drive or vehicle roll if the parking brake is not used. Campaign 17V433000 concerns incorrect battery jump-start instructions in the owner’s guide, with a corrected guide as the remedy. Campaign 17V824000 concerns certain Kidde fire extinguishers that may fail to discharge properly; applicability should be verified based on the equipment fitted to this vehicle. Recall completion status is not provided and should be confirmed with Jeep or an authorized dealer using the VIN.
