Never again a Wrangler

The vehicles looks sold me even though i had read the reliability reports. At 70k like clockwork the vehicle started falling apart. I was warned about this. The good thing is that the repairs are cheap. The U joints had to get replaced at 50k. The steering bar system collapsed at 65k. Vehicle is currently at 80k the pulleys are making fanning noise. The vehicle steering is dangerous i wont let my teenager drive it. If its Icy the understeering and oversteering correction is treacherous. I will trade the vehicle in ASAP. The death wobble is serious an inexperienced driver will flip this vehicle. Just you tube it. We also have a landcruiser and both vehicles have solid front and rear axles. The difference between a Toyota and Wrangler is substantial. NEVER WRANGLER.

I drove/own many cars.. miata, forester, golf, elantra, corolla, yaris, echo, mazda 5, mazda protege, grand vitara, smart4-2, dodge journey, sportage, civic hybrid, even a big harley davidson.. The jeep wrangler unlimited automatic is definitely my favorite , harley close in second place. The wrangler is such a great fun multipurpose vehicle.. its a truck, a suv, a daily car, a convertible, a true offroad, a great look at my original car thing. Almost everyday people compliment my wrangler. Especially when the doors and roof are completely removed from the vehicle. Ok, removing doors and roof require some effort. Especially the doors. As for the hard top roof, you will need a friend to help you out or use a hoist system. But once you strip the jeep, it turns into an offroad convertible 4x4 dune buggy with 4 door entry. All other cars are just dull boring after you try a wrangler.. this kind of open air experience is something unique. Especially if you have a form of claustrophobia. The wrangler is an Open air experience a la dune buggy on stéroïde Ok you will never beat anyone on acceleration with a jeep.. but at the end of the day, only a jeep owner will be able to witness pure freedom Losing one star only because the mpg is horrible on the jku and jlu is very expensive.. most of the annoying stuff found on the jk have been fixed on the jl. But the jl is really expensive.. Another reason it is losing 1 star is because Jeep coporate don't listen and don't work with the community...they don't listen to their costumers... most modifications require to modify other things.. like upgrading tires require that you have to upgrade the spare tire carrier and the tailgate hinges. Lifting, require so many stuff to be change. There are also know recall issues.. Will i buy another one? I would if i had the money Is it the best cat i drove.. not sporty, but for offroading.. you can't beet that price

Love the off road capabilities. Already have a leak in the back window but appears to be a common occurrence. Dealer to fix this week. Quadratek has great recommendations for seal maintenance.

This Jeep Rubicon Hard Rock edition is ready to go anywhere the second you drive off the lot. Love the power dome hood.

Great 4WD vehicle, but costly for what you get

Since there is no competition the pricing, for what you get, is expensive. By it is a great 4 wheel drive vehicle.
