2.0 Catastrophic failure at 90k

[Paluss]

I don't know but this kind of thing is exactly why I bought a 8 year 100,000 mile extended warranty for my Jeep when I got it. Engine explodes at 90,000 miles, not my problem.

Not if the cause is hydrolock

Will the OP ever reply again??

Pretty sure that's obvious. But I doubt OP had a hydro lock. As soon as your engine sucks in the water it's over, you don't drive on for a mile or half a mile or even a hundred feet. It locks up pretty much instantly.

Probably not. This is the typical my Jeep sucks for this or that reason and now I am going to go buy a whatever.

the story was shakey at best with codes and river crossings and a highway and now blamo. And then no more posts.

oh…and this is his only post ever on the forum.

I'll admit that I had the same thought when I saw the pile of pieces in the OP's oil pan. Still, it doesn't hurt to ask.

Oh 100%, but armchair quarterbacking while the OP is taking their time to get back to us is half the fun of mingling with GenPop

Exactly. And nature abhors a vacuum... so if the OP doesn't want to say anything at some point we have to call time-of-death and consider this.... an

Abandoned Thread.​

Now, to be honest, I'm not sure what the rules are in that case. I mean, technically it's not a deleted thread since the OP didn't publicly ask the mods to do so. Deleted threads are easy since we all most of us know the rules.

• OP asks the mods to delete the thread
• A vengeful god kills a puppy
• I report the news
• Yokramer accuses me of secretly murdering said puppy
• I question whether Yokramer is secretly God
• Etc., etc., etc.

But this... this is a whole other kettle of fish. I'll have to check the bylaws.

You can say that God merely uses you as his tool to do the puppy murdering, but end of the day, it was your hands on the puppy.

Well, I’ve skipped every extended warranty on every truck, car, jeep, motorcycle, washing machine, etc for over45 years. Uncovered repairs have forced me to buy one engine (partial), a transmission, and a couple refrigerators. I figure that puts me only about $296,329 ahead of where I’d be if my version of common sense had required me to buy extended warranties for everything for all those years.

You don't have to buy EVERY warranty or NO warranty. You can use informed decision making to pick and choose what you decide to extend coverage on. Maytag washer or Toyota Camry? Probably not going to need that warranty. Harley or Jeep? Yeah probably should get the warranty. With FCA, you are more likely than not to need a major repair by 100k miles.

You "I NEVER buy an extended warranty because conspiracy" and "I ALWAYS buy the warranty cause you never know" guys are equally funny. Neither path is smart.

No, there's too many children here that have no manners and don't know how to behave in public. I don't think i'd come back either if I were OP.
