Faults:

With only 4,000 miles, the rotors were warped, and when I took it back for service, they ground them down. It lasted about 10,000 miles and they were bad again. The dealer said to "ignore the vibrations because the brake pads were fine." I just took it back because I can't stand it anymore and they want $850 to replace them because they can't grind them down twice.

With only 15,000 miles the air conditioner broke. I didn't have a problem taking it back, but when I picked it up, five miles later it stopped working again. It took three visits to fix it.

I took it for a check up and heard that the rear axle seals were gone, and the fluid leaked out onto my brakes - another $300.

While it was on the lift for the repair of the axle seals, they said one of the shocks was leaking, another $250.

When the shifting became difficult and it sounded like something was wrong - the dealer also strongly suggested that I do a transmission service to REPLACE the fluid - for $240.

General Comments:

Don't be fooled by the Gold Key Purchase. I was - now I have a car worth less than the residual that's two more years away. Go figure.

I thought the Jeep answered all my needs - it looks good, but who knows how long it will last. I'm sorry I bought it - for $30,000 - and now I can't get rid of it.

Faults:

Back to dealer within 24 hours for seam pops on both front seats.

Almost immediately noticed shimmying in steering wheel at speeds above 40mphs - after more than 4 visits to 5 star dealers within 6 months I was told they could not find the problem, but admitted it existed, and not to rotate my tires until I am ready to replace them because they were able to minimize the shimmy with the placement of the wheels.

Several instances of the malfunction indicator light coming on for no reason - one time there was a small leak at LPD making this happen.

Replaced rotors and pads at 9k miles, and had a leak in front axle seals.

Replaced rotors and pads at 34k miles.

At 35k miles, there was a leak in the steer shock, replaced the shimmy shock, front shocks.

39k miles had a bearing failure in rear axle, complete overhaul of rear axle, replacing rear axel pinion bearings crush sleeve and carrier bearings.

At 43k miles, transmission stuck in second gear, had to replace the transmission valve body. After having it back now for a few months, I have noticed very hard shifting into second gear, hard shift feels like it is coming from rear axle.

General Comments:

I love the looks of my Jeep, but am severely disappointed with the amount of problems I have had.

Even more disappointed in the fact that no one can find the problem that still exists with the shimmying.
