2005 Jeep Wrangler X review from North America
"No comment, hope the dealer gets it right!"
What things have gone wrong with the car?
4-18-05 I was driving home from work when I stopped at a red light and the oil pressure-check gauge light came on and the pressure dropped to zero. When I began driving the pressure increased to normal. I stopped again and the pressure dropped to zero. I drove to the dealership where they felt the sensor was defective. Today, 4-19-05 the dealer called and said the oil pump gears were worn. They said the part has to be ordered and it would take 3-4 days before my Jeep is repaired. This is a brand new Jeep Wrangler with only 1,759 miles. Two months old. Maybe I should have bought a Honda CRV.
General comments?
My next vehicle will be a "Honda"
I have purchased Chrysler vehicles since 1979. In 1998 I purchased a Dodge Neon. After 27,000 miles the engine seized up. Lack of oil pressure.
