1990 Jeep Wrangler 2dr review from North America
"A fun, sporty recreational vehicle... but, far from a comfortable every-day vehicle!!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
Had exhaust replaced, 2 months later had engine replaced, 3 months later had clutch replaced, 2 months later bought 4 new tires.
We are now going to replace the rotors and are trying to figure out why the tail lights aren't working.
The key is sticking in the ignition, and the metal piece that holds the bikini top on has broken in two.
General comments?
The 2.5 lit, 4 cyl engine has no power. Even on the highway, when you go up a hill, you lose power.
Not having A/C in this Texas heat is a killer.
Overall, we have put enough money into repairs in the last year to have bought a new Jeep!!
