Nothing has gone wrong with the jeep so far.
There is a valve tap that was there when I bought it, but I am in the process of getting that fixed.
The gas tank or line or something had a leak, but it is nothing major, so I took my time and just got that fixed a couple weeks ago. Cost me about 50 dollars.
Overall I love the Jeep, and I plan on keeping it until I die.
It is going to be my secondary car once I get my mustang on the road... but I love the Jeep for fun and 4-wheeling.
The only complaint about Wranglers that I can tell is the the comfort and room. I love taking it to the shore, but with 4 people there is almost no room for anything besides the cooler. Just not a family car.
I have to agree with you about this Jeep. I myself own a 1990 Wrangler S. It's a 5 speed 2.5L 4 cyl. with 123,000 miles on it. I love it and so far it's been a very reliable vehicle. Can't wait to begin doing all my modifications to it!
