2001 Jeep Wrangler Sport review from North America
"Still lacks refinement, but as expected"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Two recalls (ignition and manifold)
New tires needed @ 30k (Goodyear RT/S)
Starter failed @ 40k (try a salvage yard $$$$)
LOUD throwout bearing / clutch out.
General comments?
Handles better than I expected.
Never stuck off-road.
Warm all winter long and quiet with top up (compared to my old 87 w/hard top)
