Re: My 2020 JLUR, Iām already trying to bail on it with 290 miles. FCA is doing a great job ruining the brand. Iāve owned Jeeps all my life. Iām not going to wait until the class action suit that is sure to come. $55k plus for a JKLU that wonāt drive in a straight line and death wobbles is unacceptable! Anyone that buys a Wrangler after reading all of the negative posts here deserves what you get.Don't get me wrong, I love Wranglers. I've only ever driven wranglers. This 2019 JL sahara was the first time I purchased a brand new one. All of my previous wranglers were either used when I purchased or leased. I was excited to be able to modify it and make it my own. My purchase price was right around 50k and I've maybe put $7k of mods (lift, tires, etc). I'm happy with the outcome and look of my jeep. I am getting slightly annoyed, however, with the little things that keep "going wrong" that I have to get checked out:
1) My climate control doesn't work properly, and during the winter its either all the way hot or all the way cold. No in between. Doesnt bother me as much during summer, because I usually just blast the AC on lowest temp.
2) I have a rattle that I think may be coming from the track of my Sky one touch top that nobody can seem to figure out.
3) A plastic piece that holds the floor flap thing in place in the back snapped off when I was dragging out something heavy from the back, now it wont stay in place.
4) And just in the past few weeks (now that it's colder) I have been experiencing serious "death wobble" when I hit bumps. And not just at highway speeds, but in-town. And it doesn't stop when I slow down. My steering wheel violently shakes for like 10 seconds when I hit a bump with my left tires. It was so bad today that I had to pull over in traffic before it stopped.
I just feel that for a $50K+ vehicle, I shouldnt be having this many issues. I know I'm going to get reamed with trade in value and basically lose most of the money Ive spent in modifying this thing, but I can't deal with being in the dealership this frequently.
My other "dream car" is a MB G550, but its always been out of my price range. However, maybe you get what you pay for?
