-Reliable = In my experience, this is a very reliable car. I've never had a critical component fail on me. Any issues I had I could see coming from a mile away so nothing hit me by surprise. The issues were all wear and tear related, no defects.

I also have a 2017 Jeep Compass Petrol automatic, and have had virtually the same experience in all the points mentioned above. OEM Tires I replaced last year with Yoko Earth-1. Have had to change an engine mount once, and coolant bottle last year.

Rattles are the only con which has never been fully resolved and one learns to live with it.

Will changing the brake pads outside the service centre affect the warranty?

I can not speak for how the facelift model is regarding this, but the preface lift models definitely suffer from rattling. My theory is that the speakers in the car are too good for the rest of the body. For what it's worth, my friend has a one year old facelift compass, he doesn't have any rattling so far but it's only been a year.

I can speak for the rattling issues. The sunroof squeaks sometimes, but then I squeak to the service center and they manage to fix it. As far as rattling is concerned - mine just took a hit from a truck on the way to Uttarakhand and managed to make it back to delhi without a single rattled. There was a little loss in insulation though. I will definitely be buying a Jeep again.
