1996 Jeep Wrangler SE review from North America
"A fun vehicle to have with lots of options to add"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
The stock starter just died at 138000 miles.
Stock muffler died at 105000 miles.
No major repairs have been made.
General comments?
This Jeep is very practical for my needs.
It performs well when needed.
Handles great in snow, mud, sand, 3 feet of water, etc.
Interior resists heavy downpours when top is not on.
Electrical system resists sudden rain showers and heavy downpours.
