1998 Jeep TJ Sport review from North America
"A solid toy with amazing capabilities"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Rear wiper motor died in 2001.
General comments?
I bought this Jeep new in 97 and have been very pleased with it. You have to accept the fact that this isn't a comfortable vehicle to commute with, but if you accept that you'll be pleased. This was my only vehicle until 2000 when I bought a 91 Nissan Stanza to drive back and forth to work. At that point my Jeep only became my fun vehicle. I have had no problems with my motor of transmission (5 speed manual) yet. It doesn't quite have 70,000 miles yet, but I've had no problems to speak of. The wiper motor went before the warranty was up so that cost me nothing. I have also put larger rims and tired on it which has made my speedometer off by about 10%. Over all I have been very happy with my Jeep!
