Because it’s possible to like more than one make of vehicle.

And because despite the fact I had a shitty ownership experience, I like Jeep and I’m interested in their vehicles and fortunes. I’d...

Absolutely - there won’t be a brand out there that hasn’t treated some of its customers like sh1t. I’ve had a good run with VW products (touch wood) - 3 vehicles over 6 years - only problems were a...

Yeah that’s fine unless you’re buying new. Someone who buys new is at the mercy of the dealerships. The fact you’ve paid for a brand new car should be enough without having to pay for parts and...

I’ve got a Skoda Octavia RS245 now - chalk and cheese compared to the Jeep - but 6 months in and so far it’s a bloody excellent car.

I think you’ve nailed it. There aren’t many people who’ll spend $50-80k on a vehicle without the expectation they should just be able to put fuel in it, service it, and drive it for 5+ years without...

Yep. I had one for 5 years and put up with a vehicle that had multiple faults for all but the first 3 months. I was treated like an idiot, lied to, and in the end copped a horrible loss to get out of...

They grip like sh1t to a blanket - which is how they compensate with Independent suspension.

The 4x4 system does have a tendency to overheat in sand - at which point it’ll basically disable...

For my 0.02 - The only reason to buy a Jeep is because they’re a great balance between on and off road ability. In terms of quality, cost of ownership, and dealership support they are near the bottom...

Not sure about the warranty thing, but I can tell you the wheel bolts are rubbish. They’re made with a hexagonal head cast around the actual bolt. The head has a tendency to loosen - most of mine you...

Not to nitpick, but the Libs stuffed it, not the Tax Office. The ATO are just the poor bastards that have to try and enforce crap policy.

You’re correct. Well, it’s somebody else’s problem now. But the OP was about Jeep dealerships, so not sure what your point is?

I’ve owned 8 vehicles over the past 20 years. One has been a Jeep, for 4-5 years. The Jeep had far more faults than the seven other vehicles put together. I wouldn’t say it was unreliable, but it was...

It’d hardly be surprising... there was a survey last year that ranked Australian dealer satisfaction with brands they sell - Jeep/FCA came dead last - so it’s not just vehicle buyers who have a hard...

You’ve basically just described an 80 series landcruiser - although they didn’t have LSD. Love to see a Toyota diehard’s face explode when you tell them their beloved Cruiser is just an AWD!

I feel the same about Jeep. I’ve traded mine for another brand - I like the vehicles but after the last 5 years I’d rather shoot myself in the face than sign up for another round of Jeep/FCA’s crap. ...

I agree - Cadogan is a bit of a douchebag and dishes out some pretty dubious “advice”, but FCA/Jeep don’t do themselves any favours. They keep finding new and interesting ways to be bastards. Yeah,...

It’s a 2013 build, and it’s now 2019 - so this thing is only 5-6 years old and is utterly worthless.
