The only "fail safe" it has is that the idiot cluster will light up for low oil and the buzzer will go off. The same buzzer for redline/low coolant.

A car with low compression will still "work" very well, it just won't pull as hard, but you'd probably never notice that. Low compression really begins to cause issues with things like hot start and idle.
