Has anyone else noticed the poor quality of wiring on the JK's?

I have 2 (a 2008/2009 and 2009/2010) and they both have constant wiring issues. As it stands today I have the following outstanding issues:
  • Jeep1 - no OBD connector working
  • Jeep 1 - No number plate lighting (again)
  • Jeep 2 - no passengers side parkers (keeps blowing fuse)
  • Jeep 2 - no low beam head light (keeps blowing the fimament)
  • Jeep 2 - blew the gyroscope sensor under the centre console (replaced)
  • Jeep 2 - ODB connecter stopped working, Jeep 'repaired' it to calibrate the gyroscope sensor
  • Jeep 2 - intermittant failure of rear drivers door locks and window.
  • Jeep 1 - central locking keeps blowing fuse after a few days

And lets not mention the bare wires for 5mm out the back of the head light plugs and other shitty wiring jobs.
