1993 Jeep Wrangler review from North America
"Worst nightmare"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Where do I begin?
Fuel pump was replaced within a year of purchase.
Clutch was replaced a year later.
Synchro-mechanism went out in the transmission - had to replace the entire transmission and have since learned that this is a common problem with Jeep Wranglers.
Top ripped and had to be replaced.
The starter went out which totally cut all power to my car.
General comments?
The ride is terribly uncomfortable, it is light weight so it isn't good in the snow despite being four wheel drive and I get approximately 12 miles to the gallon. All of this is topped off by the annoying "Jeep wave cult" in which Wrangler drivers become default members.
This was the worst car purchase I have ever made. I strongly encourage all readers to look elsewhere when considering a car; if you don't want to believe me, check Consumer Reports.
