"The dashboard is built up of more than a dozen pieces, most made of cheap-looking shiny plastics. In a Caliber or base Compass, you might say ?okay,? but at $26,000-plus, the cabin isn?t in the game. The argument for building up a dash of separate pieces, rather than joining the trend toward a one-piece look, is that it improves serviceability. Makes us wonder why they anticipate a need to service things inside the dashboard."

No mercy!!! Even the most cynical H3 reviews positively glow in comparison. At least they can't deny the 3's offroad ability ... the compass has none.
