Scotty says the Wrangler SUCKS

[Kyanche]

Scotty is usually right about stuff. But I’m not driving a 30 year old Toyota as a daily lol.

I went with the 8 speed ZF. No need to worry about shifting. FCA deserves every bit of crap they get for cheating out and using garbage parts on a 50,000 car.

so yeah, we need more Scotty. I think every car blog and YouTubed should shit on Chrysler until they replace that clutch and fix all the steering problems the JL has.

even if it’s 1% of customers I’m surprised they go to sleep at night

I can assure you its more than 1%. It’s unfortunate. I wanted to LOVE my JL. And I really did. The 8spd auto is light years ahead of my new 2020 Tacoma has. But I just couldn’t keep that JL going in a straight line. Even after spending all the money on steer smarts etc. Not to mention my electronics went to shit on it. It just seems after it hit 16k the issues started. I was heartbroken. It’s not fun having a new vehicle and its at the dealerships for week at a time here and there and dealing with rentals.

My opinion is "Scotty just does not like Jeeps"!!! Us who love Jeeps even if tromped by them might be a bit weird! I ama long time Jeeper but I think "It's a Jeep thing" maybe has run a bit long?

Love our JlU it is number 27..."You wouldn't understand, it's a Jeep thing!" ? On ya our 2015 Cherokee Trailhawk is darn good too!

Hey Scotty, shove it! LOL

Go Jeep!!!

Scotty Kilmer is a living "Old man yells at clouds" meme.

The 8 speed automatic is amazing!

Until it isn’t... mine died at 13k miles; there are lots of threads about stuttering, and bad valve bodies.

I'm not sure why people take this guy Scotty seriously. Have you see the guys "shop?" Its a broken down garage... leaning to one side completely packed with junk that you cant even walk into.
I saw an episode where he was served a notice by his town to clean his property or face eviction... not kidding.
His opinion means less than zilch.

Kilmer is the worst automotive YouTube channel. He constantly espouses his opinion as fact.

I like his haircut.

This guy has been proven to be both a shill and an idiot. Just ignore him.

I've had the AX-15 and the NV3550 in both of my TJ's. The biggest issues with those were the throwout bearings being noisy. My 98TJ with the AX15 had 72k when I bought it and it was my first manual transmission vehicle so I ended up having to replace the TOB. Same deal with my 04 Rubi with the NV3550, The difference being it was over 100k and had been pulling heavy wheeling duty on the weekends for at least 3 years when that went.

Fingers crossed, I haven't had any issues with my ASIN6 yet, and it seems to be working better than either of the previous two, both of which received decent marks from most owners.

Only a VERY small percentage of the 6MT have that problem mine has ran like a champ from day one 15,700 miles later I still look forward to driving it. Scotty probably wants everybody to drive a crappy modern Range Rover happy Jeeping

Mine is affected it has been a piece of shit from early on it is my first Jeep it was a rubicon and after all the shit I e been through with it i traded it in on a truck and highly doubt I will ever try another

If you listen to Scotty too often you will end up driving a tercel and turn vegetarian

That guy is a fuckin moron. I watched about 3 minutes of one video a few years ago and couldn't take any more of if.
