Faults:

Factory paint faded on rear side panel vents (exterior).

Hydraulic fluid leak. Replace hydraulic high pressure hoses and fittings.

General Comments:

Comfortable car to drive. Very reliable on contaminated roadways, but don't even think about going off road. Chrysler quality control is lacking. Jeep service dealer in Vancouver, Washington is the main reason I will never purchase another Jeep product.

I have had nothing really bad go wrong with my jeep.

I had to replace the water pump at 68,000 miles; it was about a 150-dollar job. Replaced the radiator at 75,000 miles, it cost a lot something like 300 dollars. I just replaced the entire break system including the rotors; break bands, disks, and something else to do with the brakes. It cost around 400 dollars to fix. My back wiper doesn't work AT ALL I have to open the door to get it to go back to its sitting possession. The back glass rattles loudly which I believe it is in the locking part, but I'm not completely sure. The stereo receiver has a none lighted display, but still sounds AWESOME. When taking off on the freeway or express way it, just for a split second, will think about what it's doing, but then it gets its act together. The front suspension is a little noise, and jeep could have made it ride just a little better because if you get on the freeway and get a little bump you sure can feel it. But over all it has plenty of power.

I love my car it is really good to me it works great and hasn't had too many problems. Looks great and drives like a million dollars.

Faults:

The problems started as soon as I bought my car.

First, there was and still is some sort of electrical problem where all the lights go from bright to dim repeatedly. They were never able to fix this no matter how many times I brought it in.

Then one of the doors started getting stuck. Again, they couldn't fix it. Still gets stuck.

Next was the running boards discolored within months of ownership and some of the interior molding needed to be replaced on 3 doors because it was defective.

I had to have the transfer case replaced which is unusual and very expensive.

The rear wiper does not work anymore.

The CD player does not always play or eject the CDs.

The exhaust manifold is cracked and need to be replaced. This is another very expensive defect that seems to be common in Jeeps according to my mechanic.

My power steering pump died and I had to get towed. Have had my serp belt replaced twice.

There was a recall for the front brake rotors. I had already had the pleasure of my brakes falling apart on my way to work.

Had a defective steering damper.

Had to replace broken track bar bolt.

I need major work on my A/C.

I have had numerous other problems.

Car has lost all pickup and repeated trips to the dealer have not resulted in any increased performance.

I love the way my Jeep looks, but it is a bottomless pit of maintenance problems. Next time I'm getting a Toyota.
