Additional Notes

  • The Jeep Compass 2.4 AWD rear differential holds 0.5 liter for the 2007-2010 model years, a notably small capacity that reflects the compact rear drive module used in the MK49 platform rather than a conventional axle housing.
  • Starting with the 2012-2015 configuration, the rear differential capacity drops slightly to 0.47 liter, a reduction from the 0.5 liter figure associated with the earlier 2007-2010 interval.
  • The 2015-2016 rear differential specification carries the same 0.47 liter capacity and 60000 miles / 72 month change interval as the 2012-2015 configuration, indicating no revision between those two overlapping entries.
  • The time-based interval extends from 60 months on the 2007-2010 normal-use specification to 72 months on the 2012-2015 and 2015-2016 normal-use specifications, while the mileage trigger of 60000 miles remains unchanged across all three USA entries.
  • The Canadian-market 2006-2007 Compass 2.4 AWD shares the 0.5 liter rear differential capacity and 60-month time interval with the USA-market 2006-2007 entry, but the distance trigger is expressed as 60000 km rather than 60000 miles, making the Canadian interval considerably shorter in absolute distance terms.
  • Both the CAN and USA 2006-2007 entries carry a 60-month time limit alongside their respective distance triggers, meaning whichever threshold is reached first governs the service event under normal use conditions.
