I bought my wife a 2016 JKU Sport and it began leaking water in the freedom top 20+ days after it was new. We took it to the dealer 13 times over the next year trying to get the thing fixed. They had everyone in the area and even some corporate guys look at it and finally decided that it is one that cannot be fixed. We were contacted by the 3rd party company regarding the buy-back procedures of this headache. They made an offer to buy back the jeep at MSRP(which we didn't pay to begin with), plus reimburse us for all the add-on parts we had receipts for. They charged us for 30000 miles of use at .20 per mile, so $6000 will be coming off the actual reimbursement. We decided that since the buy-back deal requires us to buy a new jeep at MSRP, with no incentives or rebates allowed....it seems to make the most financial sense to spend that money on the newest version of the Wrangler, the JL. However, I haven't been able to order it yet because the dealership we are going through says they aren't allowed at this point. So we are playing a waiting game. It does appear that others are getting theirs ordered from what I've seen online. Sorry for the long post, but I'm wondering 2 things. 1.) Can I order one yet or not? 2.) Is my logic about waiting for the newer JL a sound decision? I don't think I've missed anything, but there is a wealth of knowledge on Jeep forums and I would like to hear what you think.
