I own both a TJ and JK and have found them more reliable than the Toyot's that I've owned.
As Leigh mentioned the JK has a very good following here in Australia and they are selling very well though I believe it's starting to slow down now as the JK has been around for a while.
The trouble with the perception of Jeep reliability here in Aust comes from our major 4WD magazines who will quite happily advertise companies with Wranglers on their ads but will bag them every chance they get in their shows and mags because if you don't drive a Toyota or a Nissan then you aren't serious. This rubs off on people who take their word as gospel.
Also there as been a few TV programs that sensationalise the troubles that a few Jeeps owners who have had real issues. The biggest issue here is trying to deal with Fiat Chrysler Australia who aren't very helpful n this regard. This TV exposure also does Jeeps reputation here no help at all.
So buy one here and enjoy it. I love my 2 and couldn't imagine myself driving anything else.
