Thought it was worth sharing.

Wow, well produced and very funny! Hope that guy gets his Jeep sorted.

I read an article not long ago about a survey of dealers and the Jeep dealers were the most unhappy of them all. Still people still buy them. Shows there is no common sense when it comes to buying cars. It's easy enough to find nothing but problems with a few clicks on Dr Google.

I won't make that mistake twice. My Wrangler Sport 4-door was great fun for 2 years (70k). Bought it new and took extremely good care of it. And then had two major Warranty claims in as many weeks. Had to get the head replaced twice. After the second repair the low end torque was gone. To make it worse it also developed a slight vibration. Jeep could not detect a problem. By the time I traded in, the vibration was much worse. I think it was the prop shaft of the bush on the back of the transfer case. Stock standard, that should not happen. So by 80k it was someone else's problem!

You're not alone with a vibrating Wrangler Boutime. My sister had the same issue with her "dream car", similar to yours, and 12 months later finally got rid of it after untolds amounts of grief and time spent in Jeep service yards. She flogged it earlier this year while she could and bought a new DMAX.. :occasion14: (Every now and then, she does something totally out of character and clever) :laughing7: :laughing7:
