Junk but it's a Jeep

2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Sport RHD 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 5A)
10 of 10 people found this review helpful
Have a 2017 JKU Sport that I've always wanted. Sometimes the dream of something is better than the reality. Style...check, cool factor...check, off road and snow capability...check. After all that it is the biggest piece of junk I have ever owned. Uncomfortable ride, horrible powertrain. It's the typical pos Chrysler product. Great resale which makes it less painful. I purchased this Jeep to tow behind my motorhome so it suits my purpose fine but it is such a piece of s#!+. Update: I'm adding a star because the wrangler has grown on me. Buy one and use it the way it was meant to be used and you'll be happy. Have the Jeep 4 years now. While little things break here and there this is a very tough off road vehicle. I've gone from hating it to not being able to do without one. Still don't love it but for my purposes and summer fun it's irreplaceable. Be prepared for annoying little things though to pop up. Sensors going bad that kind of stuff.

Return of the Wrangler man

2017 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Hard Rock 4dr SUV 4WD (3.6L 6cyl 6M)

Only Jeep owners know the true value of these vehicles. Just purchased it 2 weeks ago and have about 400 miles on it. We love the simplicity with a dose of modern amenities. This Rubicon is my third jeep and I just love it. I sold my Unlimited Sahara a few years ago and missed the vehicle since. I wanted to replace it before the 2018's were on sale. Had a hard time finding the Hard Rock edition but well worth it. Remember that it is a truck and not a little SUV. This vehicle is tough and secure in the Northeast winters.

noisy, rough ride, uncomfortable etc etc etc. All the bad things you have heard are true. If you know it going in you will be more than completely satisfied as I am. This is my fourth Wrangler and the best one yet. I have driven this thing to Colorado from Georgia several times and have enjoyed ever trip. While it's not much of a freeway flyer there are a lot of backroads that are just the ticket. Top down, seeing the countryside. Would not own anything else.

Before driving off the lot ; 1, inspect the paint & interior. I found some sand through on the paint(under the passenger door window)and dodgy sealant work on the gate for the spare tire when hand washing for the first time.SEVERE water spots! Though this is likely a dealer issue. Some of the interior plastic had deep gouges / scratches as well.I bought this jeep in may 2017 and i don't quite yet have 4000 miles on it yet. After washing i smelt something odd around the front passenger wheel...so i removed the wheel and found signs of the brake caliper piston leaking brake fluid! The driver side was removed and found signs of a small leak on that side as well. This will be a warranty issue but if your reading this you should be prepared for early problems.The above mileage is not a typo. I keep this jeep garaged and was so excited to buy it.Now, with obvious issues being found while the jeep is so new i feel ripped off and completely regret buying this vehicle. I have purchased new vehicles from just about every U.S. based manufacturer and by far this has been the worst quality. :(
