The 2007 Jeep Compass received 4 stars for frontal-crash tests and 5 stars for side crash tests from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration. The Insurance Institute for Highway Safety (IIHS) has not yet tested the 2007 Compass.
Accident Avoidance
The 2007 Jeep Compass is equipped with anti-lock brakes, an electronic stability control, all-speed traction control, Brake Assist, full-time 4WD, and a tire-pressure monitoring system.
Crash Protection
Other standard safety features of the Compass include multistage driver and front-passenger air bags, front and rear side-curtain air bags, a restraint system and crush zones, which Jeep explains help reduce injuries in the case of an accident.
