Overview: A Family-Friendly Compact SUV?

The 2022 Jeep Compass received a major interior upgrade, enhancing its multimedia system and overall comfort.

Does the 2022 Jeep Compass Fit Three Car Seats?

No, the Compass does not comfortably accommodate three car seats in its rear row. While the SUV provides well-positioned Latch anchors and sufficient space for infant and convertible seats, a third seat becomes a challenge, especially when using a booster.

A-Grade: Excellent Fit

  • Latch System: The Compass features two sets of lower anchors positioned within the seat bight, making attachment straightforward. The three top tether anchors, clearly marked and unobstructed, further simplify installation.
  • Infant Seat: Installation was seamless, with sufficient legroom for the front passenger, even when the seat was installed directly behind them.
  • Rear-Facing Convertible Seat: Similar to the infant seat, this was easy to install, and front-passenger comfort remained uncompromised.
  • Forward-Facing Convertible Seat: The fit was secure once the headrest was raised. Connection to both the lower anchors and top tether was effortless.

C-Grade: Marginal Fit

  • Booster Seat: The short seat belt buckles make it difficult for children to fasten themselves in independently. Additionally, the heavily bolstered seat bottom pushes the booster closer to the buckle, complicating access.

Testing Process: How We Conduct the Car Seat Check

MotorVero evaluates car seat fit using a standardized process:

  • We use three popular child seats: the Chicco KeyFit 30 infant seat, the Graco Contender 65 convertible seat, and the Graco TurboBooster seat.
  • The front seats are adjusted for a 6-foot driver and a shorter front passenger.
  • The booster seat is placed behind the driver, while the infant and convertible seats are installed behind the front passenger.
  • If space allows, we attempt to fit all three car seats in the second row.
  • For vehicles with a third row, we install both a booster and forward-facing convertible seat there.

Parents should remember that they can install car seats using either the Latch system or a seat belt, but Latch anchors have a weight limit of 65 pounds, including both the child and the seat.

Final Verdict: Is the 2022 Jeep Compass a Good Choice for Families?

The 2022 Jeep Compass offers a well-designed Latch system, making it easy to install infant and convertible seats. However, its shortcomings in accommodating a booster seat could be a concern for families with older children. If you frequently use a booster seat, you may need to test different models for an easier fit or consider other SUV options with better seatbelt accessibility.
