1999 Jeep Wrangler SE review from North America
"It's a Jeep thing, Become a part of it!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
I installed a Sony stereo unit into the dash of the car which cost me about $200 because my stereo was horrible. Everything was working great until I tried to play a CD and it skipped all of the time. I figured it was the unit, but it turned out to be the car! Jeeps are horrible for putting CD players in. If you get one that is after market make sure that it is installed correctly and that it is skip-proof. All of my efforts to make my sound system better backfired by skipping Cd's.
General comments?
I love my Jeep!!
It is most certainly a Jeep thing.
It's great for a fun summer car. When I put the top down it just puts me in such a good mood on a nice sunny day.
Not very good for security reasons. I can open my center console with a coin! Not even the key. So if you buy a Jeep Wrangler make sure that you are prepared to not keep anything valuable in your car, or invest in a secure lock box.
You will get addicted to your car if you own one. It is truly a cult of Jeep owners and we stick together! Be sure to wave to one another because it's the Jeep thing.
