Jeep for Life

July 2020 - Well truth is we haven't done a lot of driving since the COVID restrictions that started here in mid-March. Just turned over 60,000 miles though, and with getting ready to be 5 years old, that's well below average mileage. No worries, not like I'm going to trade up any time soon. We've had no issues beyond regular oil changes and tire rotations. Couldn't be more pleased with the way the Jeep has performed. The one exception to being stuck at home this summer occurred back in June when we literally escaped to Crystal Beach on the Bolivar Peninsula of the Texas coast. Crystal Beach is one of the only places that allows you to drive right on the beach. So we romped around in the sand a bit, cruised the beach at night all lit up with the LED lights. It was cool! Made sure to wash everything off really really well... sand and saltwater aren't good for the undercarriage. As it happened, we were among just a very few people on the beach. As it turns out, our timing was good seeing as how hurricane Hanna has made a mess of the place. Concerning the Jeep it has performed without issue. It's been great! As mentioned in previous entries, I've made some modifications: suspension lift, winch, etc. I've used quality products and took the time to gain the knowledge and skill to install properly. Nothing fancy or super radical, just test and proven parts. The latest project was going completely topless. Following specs I found on a YouTube video, I spent $40 and built a wooden A-frame out of 2x4s and a couple eye bolts and with the use of some ratchet straps I can remove and suspend the rear portion of the hardtop by myself. We went cruising totally topless for the first time last Saturday with my granddaughter. These additions and modifications have elevated our Jeep experience to a new level. For now, though the future may seem uncertain, we hope everyone is taking precautions to protect the health of themselves and their families. And this too shall pass... On to the next adventure; Big Bend maybe? Oregon? Yosemite? The only thing for certain is that behind the wheel of our Jeeps we will go forth, we will explore, we will take the road less traveled, and we will take in all the grandeur and beauty that nature has to offer. The beaches, mountains, and deserts. The plains, valleys, and canyons where only the true adventurer dares to tread. Yet will go, treading lightly; leaving nothing but foot prints, and taking nothing but memories as we live the Jeep Life. OM signing out... Jeep On. OIIIIIIIO

2nd Wrangler much better

I would recommend that you rent a Wrangler for a few days if you never driven one before. Driving a Wrangler is a bit different than driving a modern CUV, which is why I love it! I owned a 95 Wrangler that I loved, but unfortunately it was totaled and I could not afford a new one. The 2016 Wrangler Unlimited Sahara that I bought in May 2016 is worlds better. The ride is quite smooth, the power and acceleration is much improved, and the MPG is great considering the weight and its brick-like aerodynamics. When buying a new Jeep, I would recommend the Freedom Top, you get a quieter ride, improved security, and you can still take off the top in about 10 minutes. I bought an electric wench to lift off the rear portion of the top for the garage. Makes taking off the top a 1 man job and you have less of a chance of damaging the top.

2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport RHD 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 5A)
15 of 16 people found this review helpful

I had a 1995 Wrangler SE with the I6 Engine. It WAS my favorite car i have ever owned. The very next year they went to the quadralink suspension and the "minivan" interior. I had to part with that great ride after a few years and have longed for one since. After rock crawling in a rental this spring, I was hooked again. While my new ride doesn't have a ton of luxury features, I love it. I am so glad i found a MT version - which shifts like the 95 did, long throw lever and pedal, but you have a great intuitive feeling when doing it. I was also skeptical of the new engines, but WOW the new 3.6L V6 is fantastic. Crisp faster power, better mileage, lighter. The other huge benefit to the 4 door is the long wheelbase. It rides better than my Honda CRV. I'll echo the same comments as a lot of others - I think Jeep has somehow kept the magic while improving the most iconic vehicle on the road. Sure the freedom top has those hand screws and levers, but the 95 had a myriad of torx bolts in front (that went into a thin strip of metal on the windshield frame) and in back and you had to take the whole top off. I also don't understand the gripes about the handling. You get a feel for the turns pretty quickly - yes you have to corner slower, but there is no safety issue and it is great to feel so connected to the road. I'm also excited to start customizing it. This is one of the few cars where you can start off with a fairly basic model and get it dialed to your specific look and function. This vehicle is not for a luxury car driver or a gadget hound. If you want a fun, nostalgic ride, grab one before the next major redesign.

A perfect example of LOVE and HATE relationship

2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Backcountry 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 6M)
12 of 13 people found this review helpful

After owning several XJs and ZJs over the years, I decided to move into a brand new 2016 JKU. The version I have is a Sahara Backcountry so it's equipped with some off road goodies plus I found one with some options such as the 3.73 gears, Tru-Lock rear locker, top of the line audio/nav system. remote start, and the supplemental side airbags which are, surprisingly, still optional. MSRP Over $45,000. It's been almost a year and a half and 13k miles so I think I can give a honest review. First, I am well aware I bought a Wrangler, and what that means as far as owning a boxy, heavy, full framed SUV designed for capability, not luxury. So my complaints will not be about things I knew I was getting into with this. Mine has been in the shop for about 25 days of the last year. My freedom top leaks (and still does), an axle seal failed, rusty water is comes out from behind the center caps after it rains/goes thru a car wash, a bumper applique started peeling off, my front differential had to be completely rebuilt twice and had a recall on an airbag module. . This week I've started noticing a rough idle combined with a rattle, possibly a heat shield, when at a stop. I have not modified mine. With all that said, owning a Wrangler puts you into an exclusive group (if you want that). There's a camaraderie with other owners and feeling of security driving one. I love the way it looks, and people give me compliments all the time or say "I wish I could get one." It's a beast on sand or snow, and nothing compares to taking the doors off in the summertime. Fortunately, I have a daily driver so mine sits most of the time, which makes it a treat to take out when I do.

6th Wrangler purchase

2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 6M)
16 of 18 people found this review helpful

When I went for this purchase I knew what would work for me from my previous purchases. I went for the Unlimited Sport with the S package and automatic. My previous Jeep was a 15 Sahara Unlimited, It had a stiff suspension, 18 inch wheels that the dealership had a tough time with one sided balancing. I thought it was Wranglers luxury model, Its ride was a disappointment. The 430 Nav Stereo was a disappointment. It might have been better with the speaker upgrade. On my new Jeep the ride is nice, It has the 17 inch wheels and softer suspension. The biggest surprise is the headliner in the 3 piece Hardtop, It really quiets the interior. The base stereo with sat radio sounds great. When I was dealing with a stereo shop with my Sahara To improve the sound, the tech said to always go with the standard stereo and put your own stereo in. But I do not think I will need one. I added the Sahara sidesteps, they really protect the side paint. I went for the automatic because I live in a big city, and rush hour can get real old . I went for the 3.21 rear end for better gas mileage. I added Trac-Loc so one day when somebody wanted to do some serious off roading, they could. If you are mainly a street driver, opt for the Unlimited Sport . It takes a few thousand miles for everything to smooth out and break-in. I purchased a black one,so everything blends in, including the painted pieces in the interior. I ordered the Sahara bumper appliques front and rear in Billet Silver which should add some nice contrast with the black paint for $174. including tax from the dealer. The engine and transmission are so smooth. I love that it is a convertible, 4x4,and utility, or tow vehicle, so flexible. I love the way it drives. The Unlimited is not as squirelly as the 2 door, and has better safety ratings. I think I should have ordered the optional side airbags, maybe on the next one. I do not know how they would work out if you were doing serious off roading.

55 yr old male loves his Rubicon

Obviously, this is like no other vehicle in the world. Fuel economy, highway cruising, storage, practicality aren't the highpoints, nor does Jeep pretend them to be. The back seat is very uncomfortable - a hard flat back and small arm rest. This is my only complaint. I've already taken it into some serious mud and it only gets stuck if your bury it up to the frame. The recovery hook on the front, and someone to pull out resolves this. I've been pleasantly surprised at the highway handling, noise level and comfort. I wasn't expecting it to cruise around like a Cadillac. The cool factor is all there too. I plan on letting my teenage kids drive it and they are pretty stoked for spring & summer. I have the manual and it's got plenty of power.

This is my 2nd Wrangler. I am passing on my 2002 to my son. That has been the best vehicle I have ever owned! So, I a bought a 2016 Jeep Willys Wheeler Wrangler to replace it. So far (2 months) I absolutely love it! It rides so much smoother and quieter than the 2002. It is more roomy in the front and back. The U-Connect system is awesome and easy to use. The interior is really nice, especially for a Jeep!! I have been very happy with my dealer Browns in Patchogue and the Jeep organization as a whole! I highly recommend this vehicle and Jeep in general! But it is not for everybody! You are not going fast and this is no luxury ride. But it puts a smile on my face every time I drive it! I love my Jeep! Update, after 2 years - I still love my Jeep! My son loves my 2002 Jeep as well. Both going strong with no problems! Great in the snow!! Great for plowing, just use 4 low. I will by another Jeep in 10 more years!!!! Update after 2 years 10 months. Still love my Jeep! No problems to report. It has been a pleasure to own!

I'm new to jeep. I commute over 120 miles per day and although I was aware of the mpg average of 19-20 hwy, I really needed the 4wd for winter and the top off for summer. I couldn't be happier with my purchase. 5,000 miles in and I haven't had a single mechanical failure. I will say that the base speaker are beyond horrible, and the speaker bar sucks also. The wind noise at high speeds are to be expected with a vehicle that basically strips down to nothing in a matter of moments. The plastic interior doors can become a problem for long distance drives depending on driving position. Other than that, It's a total blast and I can't wait till summer!

A Fun Irritant

2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sahara 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 6M)
12 of 14 people found this review helpful

The 2016 Wrangler Unlimited was my second one in four years. I had issues with rain leaking into the cabin on both vehicles around the 14,000 mark. Loved the fun, cool factor, the accessory build freedom, and utility of the vehicle. It is fun to drive, but with regard to the leaks, Jeep says you need to expect these type of things. I had to cut off my frustration. With two vehicles that leaked and gave me ridiculous amounts of frustration, it is was terrific fun to drive. I had the soft top and had it off as often as I could. The ride is loud and rough, but not as much as you may think. When you test drive it, your first thought is it being much more comfortable than you anticipated. Nothing puts you in a good mood faster than driving home from work with with top down and tunes blaring. This was used as my every day vehicle, which is probably not the best use for it. The storage compartment is small and awkward to access with the soft top up. Whether this is getting groceries or anything else. I play golf and coach baseball and my gear does not really fit well. If I lived in western states such as Colorado or Utah, it would make more sense. I am on the east coast and it is a mall crawler. I had to eventually part ways with my Jeep, but still miss the fun factor....but not the frustrations.

Most Fun I've Had in a Vehicle

Jordan Corbitt, 02/24/2017
2016 Jeep Wrangler Freedom Edition 2dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 6M)
5 of 5 people found this review helpful

In my first year owning a Jeep Wrangler, I have taking it to task. I went to several off-road parks and Jeep gatherings. I took the Wrangler through water, mud, up and down trails with inclines so steep, I could only see the sky while going up. Keep in mind, everything is stock on my Wrangler yet. One occasion I actually went off-roading with the doors and top off. I started crossing a waterway and it was a lot deeper than I had anticipated as water begin filling the cab of my Wrangler, soaking me and my passenger along with the rest of the interior. I kept going though and the Wrangler never hesitated and we made it to the other side. After a few days, the interior finally dried out and all that was left was to clean out the sand that had made its way into my cup holders. The interior did not stink and all the electronics still work like a brand new Wrangler. I have been water forging several times and even took on some very rocky terrain on some occasions. Going down some "rock steps," I didn't have quite the ground clearance needed and hit the trans-axle on the rock and bent my tailpipe a bit. The Wrangler just handled it and keep on going. I am thoroughly impressed with this vehicle and absolutely love it! It truly is "Trail Rated."

Jeeps are a vehicle that is in a very small class and you have to enjoy the vehicle to be happy with it. A Jeep can go almost anywhere snow mud and high water, but for that you must pay a small price. The ride is a little on the rough side, so test drive one first. I am on my fourth one.

Bought a 2016 Willys, Tank Green, half doors, 6 speed manual, soft top (the Northern NJ dealer thought I was nuts between traffic and winter) and love it! Had similarly equipped '91 Renegade and enjoyed that but this new Jeep seems to be of much better quality, more solid to me and gosh is it FUN! And it is cool to look at. I (well, the Jeep) get stares from men and women alike. If you like luxury stuff you best look else where. Sure the ride is a bit rough and there is some instability in the turns at higher speed and it can be a bit noisy - it is a JEEP! As fun as my 325i Bimmer convertible is, I enjoy the Jeep just as much or more. Have yet to take it off road...

I had originally written a raving review about this vehicle, but definitely had rushed it. I bought it brand new and traded it in 4 months later. Vehicle is basically a toy, driving it on the road and on my highway commute was unpleasant. Loud, rattly, braking ability was terrible, and it felt cheap. I knew it wasn’t for me when I had an emergency braking situation and ended up having to maneuver to not cause an accident. My prior vehicles were much more of a pleasure to drive, including several trucks of all domestic brands and a Jeep Grand Cherokee, a Hummer H2 and several other domestic SUV’s. This vehicle is beautiful to look at, but driving it is a chore and the novelty wore off quickly. I would gladly buy one as a toy, but never again for a daily driver.

Its a Jeep Thing

Conrad Camellino, 04/04/2017
2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Hard Rock 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 6M)
13 of 16 people found this review helpful

First, a few disclaimers. This review is on an Unlimited Rubicon Hard Rock Edition with basically every option. Keep that in mind when I say this vehicle is more luxurious than some other reviewers (for example, the Sport comes with roll-up windows and no air conditioning). Second, I've driven about 30,000 miles in this vehicle and 50,000 in a 2014 Unlimited Rubicon I had prior to this, so I've had a lot of experience behind the wheel. 1. The Good: there's a lot of it. The Rubicon Hard Rock is the single BEST vehicle you can buy for rock crawling and for all-around off-roading. That's not bias talking - its an objective truth. It comes standard with low-range 4WD, heavy duty Dana 44 axles front and rear with electronic lockers, 32 inch mud/terrain tires, an electronic sway-bar disconnect, skid plates, rock sliders, steel bumpers front and rear (the front is winch and hoop capable). It will go anywhere you ask of it, and not break a sweat. The Raptor can desert run, but isn't much of a rock crawler. The Ram Power Wagon can rock crawl - unless the trail gets too narrow or windy. Small pickups like the Tacoma and Frontier are fine, but have bad departure angles and independent front suspension (bad for off-roading). Its easy to dwell on the off-road prowess of the Rubicon, so lets move on to some under-appreciated categories. The interior, for example. Mine has heated leather seats with "RUBICON" embroidered onto the backs, leather center console, door armrests, shifters, and steering wheel...its got illuminated footwells and cupholders, navigation, bluetooth, voice-controlled calling and radio, DVD player (when stopped), a 9-speaker, 500-watt sound system. I could go on and on. Long story short, its a pretty swell place to spend some time, and not half as uncomfortable as some reviewers (professional and consumer) make it out to be. Its a great family hauler too - it seats five comfortably and with no discernible power drop, can fit loads of gear in the back with all seats up and an astronomical amount with the rear seats down. Furthermore, I never had any maintenance problems with either of my Wranglers for over 80,000 miles. 2. The Bad: yeah, there's some. Comfort isn't what you'd expect from a $50,000+ vehicle. Wind tosses the car (which has the aerodynamics of a cutting board) all around the road if you're not careful, and wind noise at high speeds can be irksome (not terrible, but again - for the price, you really don't want to hear ANYTHING). Technology is lacking too. I have everything I want as a twenty-two year old male with no children. But if you were using this as a family car on occasion, you might want more than 6 airbags, maybe safety features like blind spot monitoring or lane keep assist. The primary safety feature in this car after the traction control and stability control (which, admittedly, are both excellent), is YOU. A Jeep Wrangler asks you to pay attention, something fewer and fewer cars ask of you. MPG is also bad - after a point. I say this because driving 55-65 along curvy Colorado mountain roads, the Wrangler is a rockstar. It gets 20-sometimes 22 MPG on roads and at speeds like that, which is more than I would ask of a giant, boxy off-roader with a five-speed transmission. However, at interstate speeds (75+), on windy days (and the interstate often follows windy corridors), you might average 13 or 14 MPG. That sucks, to put it bluntly. 3. Conclusions: think about what you want out of your car. As a daily driver, the Jeep is comfortable enough and averages 18 MPG, which is fine by me - but there are better options out there. As an off-roader, it is hands-down the single best option currently on the market (and that includes the G-Wagen, the Land Cruiser, the Range Rover, et cetera). As a luxury SUV, it does well, if you're comparing it to 5-8 year old luxury SUVs (cross shopping this Jeep with a 2008 Mercedes M-Class or a 2009 Land Rover LR3 is actually pretty fair). And there are ways around its more unfortunate quirks. Upgrade the LCD screen to a 9-inch offering from Alpine that includes a rear-view camera. PAY ATTENTION when driving. For that better MPG, take the longer way to your destination and save fuel. And what do you get, for your trouble? One of the most badass, quirkiest, most fun to drive, most attention grabbing vehicles on the market (many would say THE most). Its worth it, by my reckoning. I'll be a Jeep owner for life.

Use Edmunds and True Car to find out what others are playing BEFORE going to the dealer. It saved me thousands off the MSRP.... Don't be afraid to go back and forth with a couple dealers to get your best deal.....

This is a truck. Don't buy it if you are looking for a luxury vehicle with all the amenities. Also, keep in mind that the two-door Wrangler has a very small interior. If you intend on carrying more than two people, get the four-door. Having said that, the Jeep Wrangler is a blast to drive. And I'm getting used to the "Jeep Wave" from all the other Wrangler owners! I don't have to worry about getting stuck in mud, water, ice or snow - this Jeep is invincible!

I've wanted a Jeep for 20 yrs. I traded in my 2013 fully loaded Durango for a brand new 2015 Unlimited Sahara. I was nervous I would be lost without some of the luxuries and comfort. However.. I am absolutely loving it. I feel like this vehicle was made for ME. I'm a country girl at heart and a little rough/tough around the edges.. exactly like my Jeep. I feel like I'm driving a machine.. not a car. Unfortunately this car is not for everyone. It is not a smooth ride and it drives like a truck. You need to be able to appreciate it for what it really is.

Owning a Jeep Sport Wrangler is a choice based on personality and lifestyle. I love it; my husband doesn't. I like everything about my Wrangler -- size, noise, shift, color, shape, truck-feel, safety in bad terrain and snow, great highway pickup, ease of determining parking fit and ease of parking -- and how cool my grandkids think their grandma is in her gear-shift Jeep. It's not the greatest on mileage but, hey, what's a little hiccup?! On the more practical side, it has great resale value. I'm purchasing it after my lease terminates now.

The 75th Edition Jeep Sahara is the new Black

If you want a fun, rugged, head turning, kick butt-not an SUV, not a truck, not a car-what IS that vehicle, then the 75th Edition Jeep Sahara hard top is for you. It's gorgeous with it's bronze accents, mean hood and luxury interior (for a Wrangler). Not only is it aesthetically pleasing, but it's fun to drive, comfortable and definitely roomy enough for a family of 3 (as long as you don't need to much storage). The performance is bit sluggish, but that is not what a Jeep is all about. You buy a Wrangler because it's a Wrangler.

It is a Jeep not a sports car or even a conventional soccer-mom-suv. It excels at offroad driving, not hugging paved corners or hitting the apex, to be honest it is not the best commuter car either but I use it as one happily. I get 18-18.5MPG on mixed driving. I take the top off (not folded back) about 200 days of the year, I take the doors off maybe 100 days. That gets as close to the feel of a Motorcycle as possible with 4 wheels and a roll cage.

It is a Jeep. You know what you are getting, bragging rights! You own an icon. There are many jelly bean shaped cars out there that may be better at some aspect of being a vehicle. If pleasing Consumers' Report is important to you then get a Jeep want to be. I have owned sub compacts, family sedans, and mini vans. I never wanted any of those vehicles even if they had air conditioned cup holders and a moon roof that was designed by Frank Lloyd Wright. I now buy cars that I like. Two cars ago I had a Mustang, loved it. My last car was a Mini Cooper, loved it. I have my own criteria. Does the car bring a smile to your face? I smile when I think about my Jeep. I am happy as I go down the road. I enjoy owning this car. I have always wanted a jeep and now I have one. It is one big box of fun. What is so difficult to understand about liking what you drive? I still love my Jeep after 89,000 plus miles. Completely trouble free except for a flat tire. I suspect that one of those jelly bean shaped SUV's (there are so many of them) lost the screw that became lodged in my tire. My wife and I have removed the top for some of our summer trips to lake Michigan. She loves the freedom it offers. I am contemplating a bimini top for the warm seasons. It remains everything we had hoped for. It is after all a Jeep and not some nondescript Jeep wanna be. I am absolutely unable to to discern the manufacturer of a Buick, Mercedes, BMW, Ford, Honda, Kia, Nissan, .......SUV without reading the tag. The other thing that they have in common is that they are not Jeeps.

I bought a 2016 jeep unlimited oscar mike jeep. I love driving it. I do have a question thou for everyone that owns a jeep. I bought my jeep in Feb. have taken it to the dealership every month to have my brakes worked on. I have new brakes on front and back. When I bought jeep it always made a squeaking noise. They have tried to fix it but every time they do something it still squeaks. Last time I got it fixed and they put new brakes on my back it now makes a clinching sound every time I brake when i am moving slowly. I was told that is a normal sound of a jeep. If i was aware of that I would of never bought a jeep. When picking up my kids in line for school it makes that noise. I am so embarrassed. Please help my out everyone if this is a nature thing that a jeep does.

Recurring emission leak problems. Over a year and a half now and we've been through 3 gas caps, 1 charcoal canister, 1 emission pump and they are currently installing the fourth gas tank during its eight time in shop for repair. The problem has grown from a minor emission leak to a confirmed permanent leak and now it is out of warranty. That said, they are covering it and claim it will be covered as long as it is the same issue. Every time it goes in for repair, we get an offer for an extended warranty at $2870 with a $100 deductible per problem after the original warranty. They did make the claim that if you don't use the warranty, you get the money back at the end of 7 years.

Really love the style and durability of this 2016! Drives great on the road and off. Live on a very steep, snow/iced covered road and have NO PROBLEM buzzing up that hill in the worst of conditions. It's a little less stable in high winds on the open road...but I can deal with that. Wish I got a bit better gas millage.....but when you drive 75-80mph I guess one can't expect too much.

You are purchasing an American Icon! This is not a vehicle for everyone. This is my second Wrangler. I had a 2001 Sport (I loved it, prompted me to buy a new one and make it my DD) and it was primitive compared to the new JK. Jeep has made vast improvements to the legroom and comfort of this vehicle. The options are very good for what you are buying. If you need to be pampered in Luxury then buy a Grand Cherokee. Life is too short to drive a boring car. I have so much fun in the summer with the doors off and the top down. The number of aftermarket products available to "customize" my Jeep are endless. The Vehicle is PERFECT for Northeastern winters in the snowbelt. It is awesome in deep snow. I just wish the seats were a bit more comfortable. The upgrades in materials and fit and finish are far superior to my 01. The Jeep Wave makes you feel as if you are part of a community of drivers out there who appreciate the open air fun of driving a Jeep.

I've only had my Jeep for 2 months but have already logged over 4,000 miles and for the most part I love it. I bought the Jeep after driving a Lexus Rx300 for 15 years so I was a little worried that I would miss all the luxury of the Lexus but I don't. The car handles well and of coarse is super fun. When shopping for the Jeep I had a few communication requirements that my Lexus didn't have and that was a really good blue tooth and a USB port. Now it's 2016 so that should be standard, and with the Jeep it is. That said, the USB is a complete waste as it doesn't do the one thing I need it to and that is charge my phone. The Jeep's bluetooth is through a system called UConnect and UConnect drains your phone's battery in about 15 mins or less. Thought I could solve the problem by plugging phone into USB, they did an awesome job designing the center console between the two front seats. They even put little groves for the USB cord so you can shut the lid but since the USB doesn't charge, its completely worthless and makes UConnect worthless. I think the higher priced Rubicon comes with a USB that actually charges, but since this is a second car that my kids were going to drive I didn't feel the need to splurge on a Rubicon. I still love driving the Jeep but without a USB port that charges, I can use the UConnect and thus all the great functions in UConnect are a total waste.

I went out and purchased a 2016 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Black Bear edition after driving a 2015 Rubicon for a week. I came from a 2013 Subaru WRX STI which was a great car, but drew all the wrong attention. My Jeep has received more compliments in a week then I ever got from my STI. Firecracker Red is a real looker. To me, the Jeep is just as fun to drive as the Subaru! Its far more comfortable and the technology is much better. Alpine Audio with navigation is a must have and the 6 spd manual is on point. Looking forward to many fun years driving this Jeep. Lift coming soon!

It's a Jeep Wrangler thing. Well I've had the wrangler now for 6 months and still loving it. (when I get to drive it.) My son had use of it during college break so I did not get to drive it for 3 months. He loves it and really does not like my DD (Corolla) says it's too small. So far the wrangler has been problem free. Was looking to replace my 97 Cherokee. Looked at a number of SUV's (Ford, Honda, Subaru etc) Walked into the Jeep dealer and saw a wrangler on the showroom floor. Fell in love with the styling. Took one for a test ride and fell more in love. Rides like a truck (Love it) Find the steering is far more tight than my 97 Cherokee. Bought one nicely equipped. Power windows, automatic, 3 piece hardtop, Bluetooth. More room than my 97 Cherokee and more pep. It is averaging approximately 20 miles per gallon. I know why Wrangler drivers wave at each other. Because the Wrangler is so much fun to drive you just can't help smiling and waving to others that are enjoying theirs. I find the controls are nicely placed. No more noisy then other vehicles I have driven. Love the windows all around. Makes seeing what is in the blind spot very easy. Wranglers are not for everyone, but some of us find that they just fit our personality. The world is a great place there are so many choices for those that want something different. If you love your Rogue or Enclave or what ever that is great. I love my Wrangler. It's a Jeep thing. Happy Trails.

Owned a 2016 Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon for 3 years now and put 60,000 miles on it. No issues whatsoever so far, and it’s beat on, not babied. She’s taken countless hard hits off-road, still drives like new. The iconic boxy look means you trade aerodynamics and MPG. Have the manual, shifts like a tractor, plenty of power from the 3.6

Unlimited Engine Problems

2016 Jeep Wrangler JKU with 60119 miles at discovery of issues by dealership, Jeep was purchased new from dealer. Chrysler was contacted by dealership and myself to cover maintenance on blown head engine head gaskets following inspection. On 23Feb20 I noticed excessive vapor coming out of my exhaust on my way home, I checked my coolant and oil to see if there were any problems finding low coolant levels however it was still within normal range. Not having any other problems or temperature change I parked my car at home. No more than an additional 3 miles were driven. The following day I contacted a dealerships to check for maintenance and was advised to bring it in if derivable. My vehicle was driven to World Jeep in Shrewsberry NJ where it was determined my head gaskets are damaged and a repair was necessary. The dealership recommended the additional replacement of the radiator which Chrysler was informed of and discussed terms for covering the repair of the vehicle as the failure occurred right at warranty. Following the maintenance and repair I drove my vehicle home and submitted the paid bills which a Chrysler rep had discussed for payment. I found the engine was still having a problem with air in the radiator/coolant line and immediately took my vehicle back to the dealership for a coolant purge. during inspection the Chrysler master mechanic noticed the main coolant fan was not operating as expected. The main coolant fan operation was intermittent which would have caused a long term overheating as the root cause failure of the head gasket which was to determined by the Chrysler facility to have been failing over the last 10,000 miles. Chrysler was contacted and approved maintenance as with the other failed items. Following replacement I drove my vehicle home attempting to drive it later the next day when I found my vehicle unable to start. I contacted World Jeep again and was able to start my vehicle and drive it to the dealership for maintenance inspection. Dealership found gasket installed was defective, the heater core was clogged unable to provide heat in the cab and the engine had a knocking noise. Chrysler was contacted to recommend course of action which is the replacement of the engine. 10APR20 Chrysler has changed case managers 4 times and has been difficult to receive a response back by myself or the jeep dealership. Chrysler is now refusing to cover any of the work they had previously agreed to help cover and are only willing to assist with 50% of the repair costs of the engine replacement. This is my 3rd Jeep wrangler and I am unable receive appropriate assistance from Chrysler/Jeep for a failed component that caused catastrophe damage over a long period of time only to be noticed at the end of my warranty. Chrysler has switched case managers and told conflicting information with a limited response for a problem that has occurred in multiple jeep wranglers and is not an uncommon problem

What can I say? My new Jeep 75 th anniversary unlimited is so much fun to drive. I figure since I drive alot for my business I may as well get something I can have fun in. I take the freedom roof off, crank up my stereo and off I go, a total blast. Makes me feel like I'm 21 again. The vehicle is rock solid and gets alot of looks too! The Jeep wave is fun also, kinds of reminds me of the Harley wave haha. All things considered I am extremely happy with mu purchase and would recommend a Wrangler unlimited to anyone who is tired of ho- hum driving.

If you need a vehicle for the family get a minivan first. If you want to have fun, buy the Jeep next. Wife has wanted a purple vehicle for many years and Jeep came out with the Backcountry Special Edition in just the right color to offend die-hard Jeepsters. My son has a 2014 Rubicon and has had no problems. I don't know about reliability on the 2016 hence the three stars. Time will tell. When you buy a Wrangler you know what you're getting and expectations should be in line with the fact that you are buying a rugged four wheel drive vehicle designed to take you anywhere in any kind of weather. I am very pleased with the comfort, noise level, ride and handling. A long trip can be tedious in the back seat. They are pretty straight, but for short to moderate trips no problem. The more we drive the Jeep, the more I like it. Update 9/5/2019. So far no problems. Only have a little over 11,000 miles. Over the warranty period so hope this continues.

Do your homework and know the pricing of what others pay before you go to dealers. That will help you negotiate better and call to speak with the fleet dealer instead of walking in to cut all the ridiculousness that dealers put you thru. Vehical is fun drives very sturdy and feels safe!

It rides rough and its hard to get in and out of. It handles like a truck. The amenities are still pretty primitive for the top of the line. All that being said, I love it. It can go anywhere and carry whatever I want. I have a couple of other SUV's but for around town this is my favorite. It's easy to work on and for some reason gets more looks than my Porsche Cayenne S. Now into second year of ownership, no problems and no surprises. This is not a car you want to take on a long trip, but for short hops and for going out on unpaved roads its tops.

My 2016 Jeep Wrangler Sport was ordered with air conditioning and trailer package as only options, keeping the price low! It is a solid, dependable. powerful vehicle that handles the driving challenges in rural northern Minnesota with ease. Gas mileage is around 18-20 mpg because I'm driving the vehicle as it is designed to be used, mostly on back country two lane no shoulder roads, often rough, 60 mph, slow down for surprise curves, animals, drivers, machinery, and small towns. After market add-ons are easy to install, affordable, and allow you to make it your own. It's steering requires a little more attention than the junk that is now called a SUV, the seating is for adults- not soccer intercity mom going to Macy's for Designer Jeans, and the ride is solid not designed for cruising the Hood or playing with your latest scratch and sniff IPod toy. I drove real military jeeps, in early 70's, and in 27 years of service found out that nothing was as good or dependable to replace it including the Hummer which was overpriced, overrated garbage. Safety, it's safe if you drive normally and like having metal protecting you instead of designer techno garbage that provides recalls every other week because it doesn't work and was made in Mexico/China. I have a 2013 RAV4 and traded in a 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander Sport (5000 miles), which was preceded by 2008 GMC 1500 , 2004 Ford Ranger, 1998 Explorer sport, and 1998 Subaru Forester (All Purchased New). Averaging 100,000 to 120,000 per vehicle before trade in/replacement. They have all been very good vehicles, the Outlander was a mistake, highly rated safety, good mileage, and city based thinking resulted car that is useless outside of the city.

Although Jeep Wrangler isnt the fastest, quietest riding vehicle...its by far the most customizable and coolest vehicle out there! Jeep wrangler is a motivational vehicle..it makes me want to get up & go...somewhere...anywhere! I havent had my Jeep long, but I've also heard they are very reliable and easy & affordable to fix if anything needs repair. Not so good on gas, but with the low cost of insurance on this vehicle, I have a little more cash to spend on fuel!

Reliability issues, Needs refinement

This review is about the Wrangler that my close friend used to own and finally traded it in at 48K. I know this vehicle inside out and worked on it many times. Reliability is not good. Mechanical issues -> Disappearing coolant(used to carry distilled water to top it off as needed), then broken wheel studs (never done any off road), broken oil filter housing, bad fuel economy. Too noisy and mpg could be better. Not so powerful but drinks gas. Needs refinement in the interior. Seems using cheap parts to save money (mechanical/interior).

Love this vehicle, have used it off road on several occasions and had a blast. Makes me smile every time I drive it. I have the soft top and drove over 70% of the time with the top down this past summer .Drove from PA to Maine with rear seat passenger and while not the most comfortable ride, he did not complain. Is it noisy with the soft top? - Yes. Is the ride rough on the back roads? - Yes Is it slower than other SUV's? - Yes (but they can't drive where I can) Is it cold in the winter? - Yes Can you drive it off road, over rocks and through water? - Yes Do other Jeep drivers wave when they pass? - Yes. Its a Jeep what do you expect? Also, tons of aftermarket products, more than any other vehicle. Love It!

The Absolute Worst

I owned a Sport S for two years which I bought as a daily driver for bad weather - it's a hardtop. When the rain started, so did the leaks. I tried everything to fix them, new door gaskets, new freedom top gaskets, etc. Nothing worked and the only answer I got from Jeep and independent repair shops is, guess what, Jeeps leak (nothing like a footwell full of water on your way into work). It's drives like garbage on the road - offroad good, onroad bad. It's like buying and wearing ski boots all year round for that one weekend you eventually go to the mountain.

I have a 2016 Willys, it only has 26,000 miles. I remove the roof and doors every summer. I love my jeep! However it is showing major rust issues, radio issues, It had a misfire (engine light) and steering wheel controls stopped working. I think that's a lot of issues for a Jeep only 4/5 years old especially low miles.

It’s not for everyone. If you want a smooth riding car, this ride is more like a capable truck

Jeep Wrangler is not a vehicle for all. You gotta love the Wrangler experience to really enjoy it. Rides rough, bounces around the road, noisy within, not very luxurious but that is what a jeep is. Awesome vehice for those that love it and and I love it!

My third Wrangler. They still impress me. 4" lift 35" pro comp mt2s. These vehicles will go almost anywhere, which is exactly why I buy them. If you want a quiet interior and all sorts of gadgets, buy a beamer and be quite. This is not the vehicle for you. ( By the way, this not an suv. It is a Jeep)

This is my first Jeep. I choose the Rubicon so I can play in the dirt again. Enjoy adventures, and experience the great outdoors. I have no regrets in purchasing this vehicle. Lots of accessories available to pimp it out with. I added decals, bumpers, lights, grab handles, and a winch so far. And I've only bought it six weeks ago! Still investigating lift kits and tires. This vehicle makes me young again.
