You know JUST EMPTY EVERY POCKET is what Jeep stands for and mine, has lived up to that reputation. I also own a Jeep Wrangler and thought the repairs on that were bad. The poor quality, faulty parts, junk electronics, even the very fluid they use to cool this JUNK is corrosive to the seals and coolant system and costs $27 a gallon in the parts store. gee thanks.Īt just 100k miles, the cost for repairs has been staggering. Took to alignment shop, told me both ball joints upper and lower on both sides were bad as well as the center link. Running rough, new battery, tune-up new wires etc another $300. Half the lights are out on factory radio. Rear hatch switch not working, had to replace the entire unit. Now I use a vice grips to move the seat around. No fix for this, but replace the seat.$1000.

Drivers seat handle broke off, cheap ass Chevy plastic. Power mirror switch failed, no power mirrors $100 for new switch. $500.ĭriver window motor went out $200 to replace. He was able to reach up the heater vent and set the door back open to floor and now this works, but he still says if i want it fixed right he has to take out the heater box and replace broken flapper. Diagnosis: Actuator door control $400 job BUT when the mechanic went to put the Actuator on he discovered the Actuator was working BUT the internal plastic heater door in the heater box had failed. Heat would not switch to floor, only would come out the defrost and vents. Mileage increased to 12 MPG, now that rear end was not dragging. Had to replace calipers both sides $400 most shops. Found out, calipers on both sides were not releasing completely. The fuel lines and the brake lines had to be repaired both were rusted and started leaking. I have not replaced ABS unit yet, lights still on. Keep in mind this is local shop pricing, the Dealership cost to have these repairs would be much much higher. Took to shop and was told the entire ABS unit is BAD. Replaced front wheel bearings and new sensors, $400. Was told the bearings have a sensor on them that fails and to replace. Well now the JUNK ABS system they put on these. Engine light on, Diagnosis: Vacuum lines rotted under the hood and multiple sensors failed. Let me say I have NEVER owned ANY vehicle that has caused me this much grief at only 100k miles.

Lets see I have replaced the Radiator, Thermostat, Upper Intake Gasket, Lower Intake Gasket, Water Pump, and still a F*!!! Leak!!!įinally had to have the dash and front driver seal completely taken out, just to replace the heater core a $40 part, but another $800 in most shops. Diagnosis: Lower Intake Seal, had to have both Upper and lower done again, another $1000 job. Pressure test done again at a different shop. Replaced water pump, thought it may be seeping with about 100k on the original can't hurt, another $400. I paid to have the seal replaced, it's about a $800 job.
Diagnosis: Upper Intake Seal needs replaced. I started smelling coolant when I put on the heat, and would get a leak under the front when I turned the engine off. Replaced with new radiator, new radiator cap (factory one is junk). Well, when we flushed the radiator, we discovered the radiator was shot. Dex Cool has a very bad reputation among mechanics I learned. The first thing my mechanic told me was, the Dex Cool must go and be replaced with UNIVERSAL, not regular antifreeze. Here is the breakdown of what I have had to replace: Dealership sales paperwork still in glove box, they paid over 30k in 2001. Purchased about 2 years ago from an older couple who were the original owner. Bought a 2001 Blazer, 4Dr, LT, v6 vortex engine, 95,000 miles.
