Awesome Car

We love this car. It drives great, looks great and all around nice car. It is a little noisy so I will be taking it to the dealer to have it checked out to make sure it's nothing mechanical.

Cruse control is a danger

Going down hill I can never count on the control not to take off. It will go from 58 to 65 mph in a second. Have had it in to shop 2 times just for this. The last time I was told that I should never have control on going down hill. What? Never had a car that could kill me just because I have control on. Also had back tailgate latch not wired up and a bad cell in the battery. The jeep is a 2015 that had 25 miles on it when I bought in Oct. 2016. I had them do a check of the car before I bought it because it had set for awhile. I have a lifetime warranty on it. Think I will need it

First of all after purchasing this car I feel like the stupidest person alive. I assumed there would be a spare tire or at least a donut which there is none, all you get is a tire pump filled with a one time use sealant where the spare should be. You think i would've checked before buying. The Uconnect voice commands only understand you 5% of the time, worthless. I purchased the Lifetime Warranty, which i assumed would be forever as long as I'm in ownership of the vehicle and breathing. This is not the case the Lifetime warranty becomes void as soon as the repair cost becomes more than the vehicles value at the time, I figure 10-12 years according to what i see on Blue Book Values, not to mention deductibles on warranty repairs which greatly affects warranty price. Last but not least, bring a calculator with you on any new car purchase and take the time to recalculate the dealers figures, mine offered me $1000 trade-in on my hunk of junk without even seeing it, which now that i think about it. He probably gave me nothing and made it seem like he did. Live and learn. I have only owned this for 3 days, so i don't know very much on performance and reliability, but from what I've seen so far, I think i'm in for a very bumpy road ahead. My first choice was a 2016 Hyundai Tucson, should've went back.

After 72 months of ownership there have been absolutely no problems at all. It’s been reliable and felt I got my money's worth for sure.
