* Based on opinions and should be considered as general guidance only.
- Reliability (3)The powertrain is relatively durable, but owners frequently report high oil consumption and 'Death Wobble' steering issues.
- Maintenance (5)Excellent ease of repair with a massive aftermarket parts ecosystem and a simple mechanical layout that is DIY-friendly.
- Technology (2)Very rudimentary; includes basic power windows and an auxiliary jack, but lacks any modern infotainment or advanced safety features.
- Comfort (3)While more spacious than the outgoing TJ model, high wind noise and a stiff ride make long highway trips tiring.
- Dynamics (2)The 3.8L V6 is sluggish and the solid-axle suspension makes for vague steering and significant body roll on pavement.
