Question:

Expert Reply:

Yes, the 2016 Jeep Compass can be flat towed as long as it has a manual transmission. If it has an automatic transmission then you would need to dolly tow it with the Demco Kar Kaddy X Tow Dolly w/ Disc Brakes # DM9713093.

For a manual transmission you would need the following components:

Baseplate: Blue Ox Base Plate Kit # BX1132.

Tow Bar: etrailer SD Non-Binding Tow Bar for Blue Ox Base Plates # e47ZR. This tow bar comes with safety cables included so that you don't have to purchase them separately.

Tow Bar Wiring Kit: Roadmaster Diode 7-Wire to 6-Wire Flexo-Coil Wiring Kit # RM-15267. This diode wiring kit will transfer you motorhome's braking and turn signals to the tail lights of your Jeep.

Braking System: Brake Buddy Select 3 Portable Supplemental Braking System # HM39524. This system comes with a remote to easily see when the brakes are being activated and also adjust your brake settings from your motorhome. It also comes with a charge line kit to keep your Jeep's battery charged while you tow.
