1988 Jeep Grand Wagoneer review from North America
"Overall it is the best Jeep ever made"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Well when I got it the cabin lights didn't work but I found out the connections were rusted - easy fix.
The back window motor doesn't work and the down on the front door lock button doesn't work - another easiy fix.
Windows are little slow going up but nothing grease can't fix.
Engine seems to run hot but it doesn't over heat.
Things do rattle a little.
General comments?
I think that this truck is cool, it offers a very funky look that is love it or hate it, but they are tigers in disguise.
They are very powerful and they do eat gas but not as bad as some other trucks (Fords).
They are very good offroad, they do have a tough ride but are very responsive. Very easiy to drive on the road too. Big, safe, and high off the ground.
