1988 Jeep Comanche review from North America
"A reliable and unique vehicle at a bargain price"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Brake rotors and rear drums were replaced at 115,000 miles.
The engine has an intermittent miss (hiccup) which the local dealer cannot seem to fix.
Some rust is appearing on the tailgate.
General comments?
The vehicle is unique for this region.
With the long wheelbase, the truck rides reasonably well, and in 4X virtually unstoppable in the snow.
Though the truck is reasonably quiet at low speeds, the wind noise at highway speeds is tiresome.
The truck has been very reliable with very low overall maintenance costs.
