2014 Jeep Compass Air Filter in Albuquerque, NM

The engine air filter on the 2014 Jeep Compass is located in a rectangular housing in the engine bay, usually on the driver's side ahead of the firewall.

On most 2014 Jeep Compass models the filter sits inside a snap- or clip-fastened plastic box that feeds the intake tract. Technicians at Larry H. Miller Chrysler Jeep Dodge Ram Albuquerque will open the housing, inspect the element, and report any intake restrictions specific to Albuquerque driving conditions.

The cabin air filter for the 2014 Jeep Compass is located behind the glove box, inside the HVAC housing behind the dash.

Common signs include reduced engine power and lower fuel economy for the engine filter, and weak HVAC airflow or musty odors for the cabin filter.

In Albuquerque, dust and pollen can accelerate filter loading; drivers may notice sluggish acceleration, rough idle, or increased fuel use when the engine filter is clogged. For cabin filters, reduced blower output, unpleasant smells, or increased dust inside the cabin are typical indicators.

• Engine: loss of power, hesitation, worse MPG
• Cabin: reduced airflow, odors, dusty vents
