This worked for me
Hey all. I had the same issue with my wifes 2010 Compass. I figured it was the same thing as most everyone else, bad mount or torque converter. I saw a post about the rubber stops under the hood and adjusting them didnt really help. I checked the top/side mount, lower front mount and lower rear mount and they were all intact. I figured it might just need a tune up so I decuded to change the oil, 4 spark plugs, and the air filter. One of those worked!! Honestly I think it was the air filter. it was very dirty. I suspect that the car was struggling to get enough air and it was causing the car to shake more than normal. Anyways I hope this helps someone. Good luck!!

SOURCE: 2007 jeep compass, 21000 miles,

leased? take that thing back and dispute that it is not safe to drive. they need to do a complete check up on that vehicle. it could be as little as the the dash malfunctuning, to brake broken and 4wd broken. which idk how that would even be possible. at 21000 miles it may still be under warrenty and there is prob something writen into the lease about problems like this. please go to your dealer

SOURCE: vibration on the engine, change motor mount all

Check the idle control system, also check if all the injectors are working. Provided you already changed the spark plugs.

Not a tune up problem,
You need to have all U-joints checked out,They will give you the vibrations only while acceleration

2011 Jeep Compass. Why are my high beams, left blinker, and wipers not working on my vehicle.

Question edited for clarity and toss in a few capital letters.
Question moved to model category.

The first thing to do would be to check the fuses and relays covering those functions. In reality, you need and auto electrician with a pro grade scan tool computer.

What causes slight vibration?

sounds too much like a wheel imbalance, check all the wheel nuts are tight too (I know it sounds stupid but it has happened to me) some off-road tyres have a speed limit set to around 50mph.

Vibration at highway speeds when echo light is on, 2011 Honda Accord?

is the vibration in the steering wheel (front wheels need balancing) or through the seat/floor? (rear wheels need balancing).

if the vibration is speed specific the abovewill be true, if you are sure its connected to the eco light then this is becuase the car is not firing all cylinders to save fuel. I would get it tuned at a dealer if the vibration is really that noticable
