One problem related to steering wheel has been reported for the 2007 Jeep Compass. The most recently reported issues are listed below.
Developed a noticable vibration. Took to dealer and was advised the ball joints needed replacement and the vehicle was dangerous to drive. When picked up the vehicle, invoice stated 2 lower arms and a tie rod were replaced. I have driven many vehicles over 100,000 miles and never have had to replace these parts. Therefore I feel they were either defective or poorly design ed and they should be subject to recall replacement or inspection. Vehicle was only driven on local streets.
