Expert Reply:

Yes, the Thule OutWay 2-bike rack, # TH45JV, will fit your 2011 Jeep Compass. I think you will really like this bike rack. I recently purchased the 3 bike version, # TH56BV. The rack is very easy to install because of the 2 retractable cables. The anti-sway cradles work quite well and it held my mountain bike firmly with no movement.

My wife has a traditional women's frame bicycle and my eldest sons bike has a tall frame that is not round. If you have any bikes like these I do recommend using the bike adapter bar, # TH982XT, to carry those bikes, provide more ground clearance, and hold them level on the rack. I have included a link to a video that shows how the adapter works.
