Had my 5 year anniversary last month, 45K and no problems. Only went to the dealership for the Aux Battery and then to get the steering box TSB addressed before the warranty ran out.

Sahara 2.0T. Drilled holes in the top to install a Rhino roofrack (felt like a crazy thing to do to a week old jeep, no regrets 3 years later), went to Rubicon take-off tires, got a lift and 392 take-off axles (both at the same time), added sliders, just went to 34" Toyos. One of those changes every 4-6 months.

Change fluids when needed, rotate tires every 5k.

Just passed 45k miles with no problems. Very happy with my Jeep.

I'm at 29K - does that count? lol. For what it's worth it's a 2.0 JLUR. No issues to date. Bought it Feb 2022. Went to EJS last year bone stock. Going back in a week and half with 35s, slight lift, mopar steel front and winch.

Hi
I have the same 2.0. Let me know how it does with the 35”s on it.
Oh.. How many inch lift on it do you have?

thank

41k miles on 2020 JLUR 3.6MT no major mechanical issues. Blew out front ball joints after lift and some winter wheeling at 3Ok miles. Sun Visor needed replacement and have paint bubbling issues on door hinges…. Warranty will cover paint. Waiting to get closer to 5 year mark to have the bubbles addressed.

43k miles with my etorque 2.0. Belt tensioner has oil residue on it, dunno what the leaking is on that, i also have an oil leak, not sure from where but it’s on the passenger side of the block so maybe from the valve cover. Other than that, haven’t had any major issues.

2021 JLUW Sport 2.0 L Turbo
2021 JLUW Sport 2.0 Turbo, 28K. Only issue was the known one with the housing leaking water at 8K. Fixed it myself.

Been from Florida to TN and windrock, once, once from Florida to NC and did hurricane creek. Did the tread lightly trail in Florida twice. Countless dirt roads. Semi-retired now and just flat towed it from Florida to NC. Did the highlands, waterfalls, and dirt roads yesterday.

2" spacer lift.
Spot lights.
Phone holders.
Tail gate table.
Changed decals.
Grab handles.
Superchips tune.

Love this thing. Wheel the shit out of it on and off road. Comfortable and drives fine. Headed to Gatlinburg next week. Thinking of upgrading my tires soon before we get out west on some of those trails.

My 2019 JLUR with the eTorque 2.0 turbo engine currently has a bit over 78k on its odometer.

At 10k, it got a 2" Dynatrac lift that was completed with SteerSmarts and Synergy components. Tire size was also increased to 35's.

At 17k, the Dynatrac lift was swapped out for the 3.5" Metalcloak Gamechanger and tires were bumped up to 38x13.5's.

At just under 36k, the original aluminum steering box was swapped for the upgraded steel version, as per a tsb at the time.

At 60k, the tires were bumped up to 40x13.5's.

At 65k, the 3.5" Metalcloak springs were swapped out for their new 4.5" springs.

At 70k, I got my first crack on the original windshield.

At 78k, my digital instrument cluster screen bit the dust.

Well, I picked up my '19 JLUR with a little over 22,000 miles and have put about 2000 on it so far myself. Not sure if it had any major issues before I got it. The reports showed it trouble free other than the clutch recalls. I don't know if anything broke and previous owner just fixed it himself with out reporting it, but I don't see signs of that. Though they did spray paint the under side black and got overspray on the paint that I cleaned off with a clay bar. I checked to see if it was done to hide some repairs but I didn't see anything stand out.

Friend of mine has a '19 Willys JLU, I think their first 30,000 miles were reletively trouble free, but just a couple days ago he told me he was getting his rearend replaced under warranty. Think he is pushing around 50,000 miles and recently his rear diff started making funky noises but hadn't totally died. He has an extended warranty or he would be paying for that rear end himself.

We have 67K on our 18 JLU, purchased used at 60K. There wasn't anything on the CarFax that scared me when we purchased. My wife was in an accident around 63K and they had to replace the front diff and some other suspension parts but otherwise its been good. I have replaced both batteries since owning it but I don't view that as a problem, just routine maintenace.

I do need to replace the VVT seals in the valve covers but otherwise no big deal. Its due for tires and these are quite possibly the original Michelins on it.

Me. 35,329 miles on my 2021 JLURD. I like to think it's because I take care of it.
