I've had my Jeep Wrangler for about 6 years now. I haven't had a vehicle like this ever before maybe it's just me, but the only thing I've done to it is service it. Powerful vehicle. Absolutely 💯 reliable, the most reliable vehicle I've ever owned. I didn't expect it to ride smooth and get great gass mileage so let's not talk about that. Still going strong 💪. It's a real champion!

My Jeep Wrangler Unlimited (2D 4WD) has the awesome in-line 6 engine. Mine had a problem where the engine would stop while it was over 100 degrees out, AC on, and accelerating. This happened 5 times. Pull over, turn everything off and pull the key out for 1 minute and then it starts up and worked fine.

This vehicle is for the off road consumer. It rides poorly on the road and feels like it jumps around when you take a turn and hit a bump. I purchased it brand new and the dash squeaks (dealership said that is how they are from the factory). You can see the spot welds on the rear quarter panels. (again ok to Jeep's standards). Weld marks on the doors not ground down, just painted over. (again ok with Jeep).

Overall I love driving my Jeep. The idea of it is exactly what I want, the execution is lacking.
