Jeep's has a reputation for reliability

The Jeep is my toy, always wanted one and found just what I was looking for. It handles well gets right into traffic and goes off-road for fun and I look good doing it all!

A summer convertible and snowmobile in the winter

The most fun I've ever had driving any vehicle. It's reliable and maintenance costs are extremely reasonable. Resale value is also better than most cars I've owned.

Perfect off roader

We needed an off road vehicle to get to mountain cabin over 30 miles of rough dirt road in Arizona. Picked out a 2016 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk with 33,000 miles. The Jeep 4×4 system is awesome and handles any terrain easily. Yet, once you hit the highway and put the teansmission in 2 wheel drive, you get a smooth highway cruiser.

Love my Wrangler but...

I bought my JK 2 years ago. I still look back when Im walking away from it. 2 door Wranglers are the coolest car on the road today, but there's many compromises which I list below: Uncomfortable. Ex. No foot rest. I have to put my foot under the clutch. Not for people taller than 6 ft. You will literaly bang your head every time you move. Very noisy. Forget about cargo space. Questionable reliability: ex. had to change two door seals, seats make a faint clunck and one of the power ports is not working, again. Clutch pedal makes a creaking noise when hot. Safety is lacking Ex. No side air bags and flimsy doors. Dont just buy it just for looks because you're going to regret it. Good luck.

Gas burner 12-14 miles per gallon

Door seals leak

When I bought this Jeep I was so happy now I am constantly taking it back to the service department because the door seals. They continue to leak every time it rains my floor boards are flooded with water.

First Jeep

This Jeep Wrangler is the first Jeep I have ever owned. I purchased it for a new career that requires travel to off road sites. It is certainly a different driving experience than my BMW, but after 18 months of ownership, I believe that I’ll always own a Wrangler. It’s off-road capabilities are spectacular, and while it’s not the first vehicle I would choose to drive cross country, I have to drive it across states for my job, and it does a fine job. It’s been deadly reliable so far, and if properly maintained using my old school schedules, I believe it will last a very long time. I am very pleased with this Jeep.

Most reliable car I've owned and a lot of fun.

It meant all my needs. Plenty of leg room up front. Smooth driving all round I think. Never had a problem. Overall a fun and enjoyable ride.

A very fun and enjoyable vehicle.

I love it! My whole family loves it. It has been very reliable. Drove it to California from Kentucky! My family actually wants to drive it more than I do!
